remixedcat Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 ^ I hear ya. I've wanted poweramp forever. right now I'm using the old realplayer beta (that doesn't have ads and kills playlists) and an extra EQ app to get around that.... I don't have a credit card at the moment but I have lots of money in paypal to burn on apps, however they don't accept it!!! >_< I use it becuase it's one of the only free media players that plays both music and videos and looks good... lots of other free ones look like ass LOL... or they have ads.... also my phone only has 350MB avalible for user app storage so I need to compress things... it's bad enough to make me need another phone.... if anyone wants the .apk of the old realplayer version before it had ads and killed playlists let me know I was able to back it up!

BetaAddict Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 ^ I hear ya. I've wanted poweramp forever. It's unlikeliy. So far there haven't been any top sellers in the sale, just second tier niche apps. I still regret not getting swiftkey, poweramp, and a bunch of others when during the $1 sale they had the beginning of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd wait till today's $0.25 sales before purchasing it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just hope poweramp does the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+BeLGaRaTh Subscriber¹ Posted September 29, 2012 Subscriber¹ Share Posted September 29, 2012 For me it has been the same apps for that last 3 days. Maybe they arent updating properly on Xoom and S3? Bought clouds and sheep on day one, should have ignored it, 25p or not it is just a facebook game conversion :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
still1 Posted September 29, 2012 Author Share Posted September 29, 2012 It's simple really. They're basically saying 'why buy any of it when you can easily pirate it?' why go for a job and earn money for living when you can steal it. its that difference. For me it has been the same apps for that last 3 days. Maybe they arent updating properly on Xoom and S3? Bought clouds and sheep on day one, should have ignored it, 25p or not it is just a facebook game conversion :( I dont know where you are looking but here is todays list Broken Sword: Director's Cut Pool Break Pro Order & Chaos Online Cogs Camera ZOOM FX Ski Safari Cut the Rope Cut the Rope HD Where's My Perry?

UKDarkJedi Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Yup I've bought Nova & Dark Knight Rises. Last day though? Glad we had a sale but didn't feel long enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wannes Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I don't understand Nova so I'll need to check out some guidelines. I got the Dark Knight and Gravity Guy as extra's. The sale should have indeed been longer but shouldn't it always? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+BeLGaRaTh Subscriber¹ Posted October 1, 2012 Subscriber¹ Share Posted October 1, 2012 Horn failed for me, I purchased it on my HTC OneX but then it said it was incompatible. But seeing as it was over 15minutes from purchase to download fully I cannot claim a refund. Yes it's only 28p with the vat, but that's not the point. I already went through this crap with the Moto Xoom, Maybe I should have learned from my previous mistake :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sale should have indeed been longer but shouldn't it always? :) Nova is a launcher ie. everything you see and do on your home screen and app drawer is a launcher. by default your phone will have a launcher but this is an additional launcher which will let you customize your home screen app drawer. for example I can customize how a folder should look. can customize the home screen and scroll effects. try the free one first and then you will understand...

HawkMan Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Nova when I tried it just seemed like more trouble than its worth, it's slow and overly complex, unstable and doesn't work as well as original launcher. But that's my verdict on all launchers today. It seems third party launchers are stuck where they here 2 years ago, while the original and OEM launchers have progressed.

But that's my verdict on all launchers today. It seems third party launchers are stuck where they here 2 years ago, while the original and OEM launchers have progressed. I've had quite the opposite experience - Nova launcher, Apex Launcher are my favorite launchers - they are fast, stable, and have tons more features than any OEM launcher will ever have. A third party launcher is a must on any non-nexus device as I can't stand manufacturer bloat (a ROM without manufacturer bloat is even better). Also, have you tried the latest updates, these launchers have come a long way since they have been released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawkMan Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 The difference is I but quality devices without bloated launchers. No Samsung or HTC crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
