Hi,
I was using the task manager that installs with Go Launcher EX to have a look around and noticed that the torch widget/app that came with the stock GB install was running in the background. When I killed it, it restarted automatically and when I checked its permissions it had pretty much free run of everything (see pic - and that doesn't show the lot).
Now, I may be being paranoid, but this setup looks very suspicious for a simple torch app - anyone with more experience of such things care to comment.

Block those with Droidwall.
I don't understand why stock music player on ICS (and may be on GB too) can read email attachment, sms/mms ?
Yes, weird. I've actually frozen it with Titanium Backup and installed a free widget from the Play Store.

Found this floating around the web & thought I'd share, they have a very interesting UI it's rather different.
A home app replacement with an easy-to-use interface that delivers previews of social network updates as well as phone services data. Pick a service, such as Facebook or Twitter, to see recent updates. Choose Call History or Contacts to call someone. Use the app launcher cube to quickly find any installed app and launch it.
Based around a single circle of icons, you can control every aspect of your phone with a single screen. Two to be exact The second of which is the screen that holds all your applications in a very slick cube design.

Hi is there a way to recover the stock cog 4.1.1 wallpaper without flashing again? (The blue diagonal wave) I'm not sure where the directory is located to assign it again. Its the nicest version so far imo. Help please.
Not positive but Titanium backup might have this available if you backup all user apps + system data. Obviously do not restore all user apps + system data. Instead uncheck everything and look for the wallpaper option.

I don't remember what Cog runs, but I'll throw in my two cents
Normally, wallpapers are found in Launcher.apk, but like I said, I'm not sure if Cog comes with Launcher.apk or if it uses TouchWiz. If it uses TouchWiz, I would assume it's in one of its APKs, though I can't tell you which one as I've always hated TouchWiz and now I don't have my phone to mess around with it (replaced by HTC Inspire all the way ~).
Try framework-res.apk in the the res/drawable-hdpi folder. Its called default_wallpaper. From the Atrix, I believe.

Cappysw10 thanks very much, this is exactly what I was looking for!
Was looking for a Car Home app and stumbled upon this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1081009

If your like me, and like old school droid programs but cant get them to install on new age devices here is one. This is the Car Home apk for anyone that would like to use it. Install as you would any apk. If you run into any problems side load it from something like dropbox or push via ADB. Once you install both the launcher and the car home apk then boot into clockwork recovery and fix permissions, reboot and you should be good.
If you use and like hit the thanks button!

Is this Car Home by Google? Looks the same; however I noticed the Market Version says my device is not supported.
^^^^ I'd like to know this too. Been using Samsung's app which is a little weak. Will give this a try

Interesting. It works, but has some quirks. The music button only seems to work with the google music app. When I try to add other apps to a screen, it only allows me to select launcher apps...

At some point today my phone updated and changed my app drawer to some new style. I don't care for the search bar at all, its useless to me completely. Is there any way to remove it, or revert to the older one without rooting?
I also would like to remove the recent apps or whatever that is at the top.
My phone did this after updating Android System Webview. I sure I hope I can revert it back to the OG look.
I don't think it's the Web view. I guess I'm going to have to find another launcher
I've had a system update for a few days now, after webview updated I tried opening the app drawer and it's now different, and I have yet to install the OTA.

Huh..You got vertical app drawer and i didnt..HOW??
I'm guessing you're running the Android 6.0 dev preview? Looks like Google Now on Tap.
http://www.droid-life.com/2015/09/17/google-now-on-tap-apk/
My phone is bone stock, not rooted only ota updates from Google. No dev view anything.
your google app has updated, try going to settings > apps > google app and uninstall updates, should let you revert to an older version.
Got my phone debloated yesterday and started adapting it to my preferences.
I was very happy with the look and widget functionality on my P30 Pro and ideally would like to replicate it.
Here is a screenshot:

I am using Nova and an icon pack called 7null, but this is no longer available on the appstore - and can't find it on my phone.
Not a big deal.
The widget showing the time is Zooper which unfortunately is not longer available. I love this widget as it's extremly customisable - I chose to have it connected to my google calender so it always shows the next event. Phone temp not important. Tapping the clock takes me to the alarm, tapping calender opens google calendar.
I tried to transfer the app and downloaded it as APK from the web, but nothing happens when I try to install.
Anyone know if it's possible to install or if there is another widget that has a similar look/funtionality?
The next calender event is number 1 for me. The option on the phone right now just showing the entire calendar month.
thanks!
Reinstalled the Vivo store which enabled me to install the APK - now I just need to figure out how to remove the widget name without losing the app names
try this
go to setting->Home screen,lock screen & wallpaper->home screen settings->icon style,size & name->turn off show icon name
tried that but that removes app names which I need. I just want the widget name gone. Never had widget names displayed on other phones
