You don't have to use Shoot Me, press the home and power button to take a screen shot
PowerAmp is a must have for better sound. It sounds amazing.
OP, isn't Wireless tether sort of redundant since we already have portable hotspot available on the phone already?

I've got something to ask, which battery saver application is the best? I'm using android booster, memory booster, battery widget, task killer advance, ADW Launcher EX and juice defender ultimate... I'm afraid this is too much, so I decide to uninstall some...
Here are 2 useful apps I recommend:
Samba Filesharing - easily access the device over wifi as a Windows shared folder (much faster than FTP)
Jota Text Editor - good text editor with monospace font and automatical charset recognition (displays e.g. Windows texts with German umlauts correctly)
(As a new user, I'm not allowed to post links, so you have to google yourself.)

Are you really using all these apps simultaneously? I'm only using the free version of Juice Defender with the 'Balanced' setting which makes the phone go online every 15 minutes to let the apps sync their data in the standby mode. This reduces the battery consumption for wifi from 32% to ~6% which gives at least 25% more battery life. Nevertheless, I have to charge the battery each day, but at least it gives me a bit of extra time to get through the day.
I only use:
Alarmdroid
Blacklist Pro
Facebook
Millennium
Root Explorer
Does widget locker consumes considerable amount of battery? and chainfire3d fullyworking?
Security: I bought both wavesecure and juicedefender plus, and installed where's my droid for times when I forget where I left my phone
Launcher: Go Launcher Ex. It's idiot-proof.
The usual: titanium backup, astro, autokiller, dolphin browser HD
twitter: twicca
facebook: friendcast. facebook android takes forever to load.
integrated chatting app: imo messenger
I also installed jango (music streaming), pulse (news feed), bought smart keyboard pro (cos I liked it and didn't like the popups for the trial version, though that was the only difference between trial and pro), jorte (organiser) and the google navigation app (modified, because nav is not available in my area).
Which is the best explorer for android thru which i can send multiple files thru bluetooth

The Ones 1 Use...
1. Launcher: the stock LG HOME launcher: because i find the HOME pretty decent. it has the "G" sensor working and i also love the stock widgets.
2. MUSIC:i use the LG Stock Music Player because of the widget, dolby digital equalizer, lock screen pull down control and the notification control . additionally i use UBER MUSIC (with the metro skin and clear widgets skin becasue i like the seamless fluidity of the app and the skin)
3. GAME: only two games: a) BLOOD & GLORY-for serious gaming b) PEGGLE -for casual time pass
5. BROWSER: the stock browser because of the best flash integration.
4. OTHER APPS: set cpu, root explorer, Simple Task Manager, Ambient Time LWP.
is there any other "must have" app that i am missing???

[2.1+] Screenshot ER works where nothing else does ★ $1 SALE THIS WEEKEND ★

SCREENSHOT ER
Screenshot ER is a free screen capture app for all rooted devices, proven to work where nothing else does. Easy to use and with lots of settings for capture maniacs too!
This app is a pure screen capture utility and nothing more. You get all the possible capture methods:
★ Long press on search button

★ Delay
★ Device shake
★ Visible or invisible notification icons
The root daemon is complemented by a powerful suite of options designed to increase ease of use and compatibility across a wide range of devices:
★ Interactive thumbnail preview
★ Rotate and flip images
★ Manage service with widget
★ Customize file names
★ Dynamic image override
★ Disable service when screen is off
And of course, all the usual options are there - image type, countdown timers, share menu integration, and an editable storage folder.
DEMO VERSION is watermarked.
ROOT ACCESS is mandatory. Look at the following if you don't know what that means: http://goo.gl/bs8Zx
LOG PERMISSIONS are for feedback - you don't have to send logs if you don't want to, and if you do no private information is sent.

Well, the Lite version is FREE, and i just cant get over how few people rate it! Ticks me off no end.
Thanks a million for this, Market comment left!
Enjoy! And leave comments if you do!
I get this warning from the screen shots:
imageban.net contains content from chelreklama.com, a site known to distribute malware.
Imageban is fine... its just your security being annoying. Use the market if you want to see screenshots:
https://market.android.com/details?id=fahrbot.apps.screen.demo&feature=search_result
Or better yet just try the app. Its free.
very good app! I was looking for something like that! THX !!
Thanks, and enjoy!
Nice app.
Feature request: a widget to toggle shoot mode on/off with a single tap. That would save us all those trips to the overcrowded settings menu.
With a widget for quick toggling of the shoot mode this app could replace ShootMe on my phone.
Ok - the widget is coming by tonight!
Edit: moved my post to the thread about the free version.
Right, got it! See i added a toggle widget like a day after you suggested it
Cool!
Let me guess... you already planned to add the widget before I asked for it
Not at all - it was a 0 day thing, which is why its so ugly right now
Too bad we can't hide widgets in folders. Then it doesn't matter how they look.
Any idea why shooting by shaking only works in my homescreens but not in my app windows?
Motorola Defy/Froyo/original Motoblur ROM/GO Launcher EX. Doesn't it work because of my phone or is there something strange going on in the app itself?
None at all - but if you send logs using the appropriate functions i might start on the path to enlightenment!
This is the best of the lot, no doubt!

Is there a note taking app that supports stylus input (and possibly sync with Google Tasks)? I've heard that there's an app called Memo that's an alternative to S-Memo just without the pressure sensitivity except I can't find it on the store. I've found a few memo/note apps but they all seem to be typing input.
Notepad Apps

There are many, but they may be hiding out as drawing/painting, or other kinds of apps. Try searching Google Play for things like draw, paint, notepad, chalk, blackboard, or white board.
My favorite so far is an app called "Draw!". It defaults to white on black, which is a bit hard on the eyes, IMO. You can get a dark color on a light background by changing the background color (called "Color" in Preferences, and not the "Color" listed in the main menu, which is a tool). Then, to get the background to update, touch the trash can icon. (Yes, it took me a while to figure that out!)

depends on what you need, but my two favourite note taking apps are Papyrus (infinite canvass) and FreeNote (one of input styles decreases written letters ca. 4x, so you can fit more text on the page)

Just thought it'd be nice to have a place where everyone can share what apps they're using/ have used to help each other find some cool new stuff.
I currently have

Notification Center
Keep for pebble
And music boss.

I've had mine for a week now and the apps i have are:
Notification Center
PebbleTasker (Never really used Tasker before, but I guess now is the time to start)
Sleep as Android
RingMyPhone (gimmicky thing) - Guess this could be done with Tasker too..
Glance for pebble (with 3 tasker profiles) , Evernote, pebble dialer
The usual suspects (notification center, canvas and PebbleTasker) and agenda watchface and nav me. Works very well

The only problem I have with that is not being able to clear the notification from the phone with the watch
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk
SmartWatch+ (GPS, Weather,Camera,Calendar, Notifications) - not free ($2 I think), my favorite so far
Tiny Bird (Flappy Bird clone)
Morpheusz (sleep monitoring)
Pebble Mars (Mars Rover images on watch face)
Motiv8Health (fitness/calorie counter)
- Glance (with custom Tasker Profiles, I created something similar to music boss so I can control volume and tracks from poweramp, and many other task)
- Notification Center
- Pebble Dialer
- Revolution Watchapp (biggest numbers)
- Pebble-Cal 2.0 (Dynamic Calendar)
- Evernote
- Stopwatch
- Multi timer
That's it. 8/8.
With these apps we can:
-Execute almost infinite number of Tasker tasks (including my favorites Launch Google Now and disable Notification Center manually before going to sleep)
-see all smartphone's notifications (excluding those you don't want)
-monthly and daily calendar
-Stopwatch
-timers
-notes, reminders, dynamic checklists (you can check/uncheck them from the watch, e.g. supermarket list)
-see and answer SMS (pre defined answers)
-see call logs and call any number or contact
-oh, and see what time is it, always synchronized with atomic servers (with clock sync on Android).
That's it for now.
Odd that there's no love for yelp. I love it on the Pebble. It's the only app I use aside from Music Boss but I use the stock pebble music app with it.
Nav Me - perfectly working navigation from Google maps
Utilities from Pebble Rocker - Android, Camera, Pager, Photos
BigBlack - Big clock with bluetooth alarm
Pebblets
Pebble Dialer
Music Boss
Spoon for Foursquare - Original Foursquare is somehow broken in Slovakia, Spoon has much better accuracy
PebbleApps - for weather, sms
8/8
pretty satisfied with these settings. I would like to use Yelp, but this is a no go in Slovakia right now.
I have following apps:
Sleep as Android
YWEATHER as default watchface
Modern minimal watchface
PebbleApps
Battery Lifetime watchface
Dotswithdate watchface
Evernote apps
Do you know/have some app like SmartWatch+ (only iOS), but for Android devices? I need to have custom HTTP request function, nothing more
thanks for info
Glance + Pebble Tasker should do the trick
Correct me if I'm wrong.
Pebble Tasker + Tasker should be enough. Not tested - I have to prepare the equipment for it thanks!
Where do you guys get your watch faces? I read above yweather but didn't see in playstore nor apps store, unless I missed it.

I have found yweather on pebble app store. But you can have a look here: http://www.mypebblefaces.com ... tons of watchfaces
I only have 3 apps on my Pebble. The rest are watch faces.
Music Boss
Phone Ringer
Pebble Bike

One of the best apps I have is 7 minute workout. It provides vibration feedback when its time to switch activities and its a good quick workout. I do it every morning

I only have;
Notification Center
- like that you can clear notifications from the phone and vice versa (Android 4.3 and higher)
Sleep as Android (and paid for upgrades when I saw what it could do)
- much better than Morpheuz (in fairness appears to be much further along and the watchapp is a simple add-on to a well developed system, rather than vice versa)
Some Star trek-like watch faces that are okay looking and provide a bit more info.
I tried and deleted;
Motiv8
- a fitness watchface that tracks movement, guesses calories burned. seemed a little buggy and possibly interfered with other apps.
Glance
- didn't do enough and was buggy on the Pebble version/s I was running. Had issues with weather (and I only use official, localised weather sources anyway)
The purpose of this thread is simple...
To discuss anything that will truly add features to our phone... As we know this is a light skinned version of stock Android
And here I will be presenting links to apps and threads and everyone can contribute... Which add features to Op5...
Not just ui customizations..... Features...
Definition of a feature...
Something which your phone does which it couldn't do before that app..
So come on guys.. Lets start...
Though I did hate the laggy TouchWiz. I did live the s pen and S note...
And honestly speaking you wll too...
Let's try and customize our Op5.. To the extent that we want to...
This thread will present a series of apps and threads links etc..
Which will help the user to truly add whatever features they want from whatever skin htc sense Samsung TouchWiz to their op5
And I am no developer so please help me out here...

Allows you to take custom screen shots and save content like scrapbook for later use...
It is also a over screen float like air view...
It kinda blows samsung air view out of the box... But ya note devices do have bigger screens...

MacroDroid - Device Automation
MacroDroid is a powerful task automation and configuration app that focuses heavily on usability with a simple UI and logical step by step process.
Amazing UI. In my experience better than Tasker.
How about Always On AMOLED - BETA?
It's a simple app which keeps your screen on always (like MOTO devices). Nice and cool. If you pay a small amount you get an unlocked version with customization...
Loved the suggestions guys... Specially the always on amoled
Sent from my ONEPLUS A5000 using Tapatalk
I have two minor additions I'd want added:
1. More customizable theme colors (or honestly I just want red back!)
2. Invertable color option for the system tray
TL;DR add automatic rules
I had a note 5 I loved it, unfortunately it didn't like the hot tub.. TBH I never used the pen much, but when I did it was handy, perfect for field work; snap a pic, doodle on it, send it off. Awesome! I was torn between buying a note FE or the OP5, I'm glad I stuck with OP from a 2 to a 3 to a 5. I've become a flash-a-holic.
The feature I'd love to see is "automatic rules" you can actually get access to the setting on OOS if you have nova launcher, but it just doesn't work. I'm using "#1 profile" to automatically set the phone to priority only at bed time, this shouldn't be a difficult thing for OP to add/activate to OOS.
I'd also like the old dialer, or for that matter any other dialer, swipe down to answer for me is counter intuitive. Like thumbs up thumbs down, swipe up to answer, or swipe down to reject a call.
I wish you could choose the text bubble colour in the default sms app. Like textra or Google messages (too bad they don't have a dark theme for Google messages).
A setting to switch the wireless data indicator from 4g to LTE, I'm not sure why this bugs me, but it does.
How about Tiles? Also, Virtual Hosts is excellent for setting up a root free ad block. Just download one of Steven Black's host files from GitHub and point the app to it.
Would love for buttons and gestures (especially screen off) to be able to invoke app shortcuts. Just imagine the possibilities for Tasker.
Always on display.
Notification badges on the stock launcher so I can enjoy the shelf.

This is a nice app and I have paid to support but the battery hit is just too much right now compared to what you get using LG or Samsung's version

I don't understand why not a single stock ROM has long-press volume to skip track. Its such a simple feature. Its baked into every single custom ROM out there. It was there on Sony Ericsson phones (Walkman and K series). I need to get the damn phone out of the pocket, turn the screen on, unlock, open notifications shade, and press to skip a god damn song. (Not all headphones come with buttons, and not all headphones support skipping songs by multi-pressing the buttons.)
2 features I'd love added:
1. Long press back to kill app
2. Brightness slider in notification drop down. I know there is one, but you have to fully extend it to change it. My S7 had the option to place it in the first drop down.
Yeah I agree with most of you, some useful additions:
1. Badges on the Stock OP Launcher! I love it from my iPhone and sometimes forget to answer because I swyped the notification away and no badges to know there are still unread messages
2. Always On or something similar, but only if it doesn't use too much battery and no burn-in
3. Kill all apps in background with one button gesture
I'd love to see OMS commits get to OOS and probably experiment with the Kernel a bit (I know you can flash a custom, but if you'd like to stay complete stock, without unlocking). Maybe improve audio libs similar to ARISE....
How about a one-handed mode feature? That would be pretty helpful.
- Options to block QS & Power menu on secured lockscreen. (Smart Lockscreen protector app does the job, but it's service doesn't start at boot until the first unlock...)
- Skip music tracks using volume keys
- Built in Caffeine tile (the one from play store works well, but doesn't reset when turning screen off).
- Launch torch using power button long press when screen is off
- One-handed mode
- Center status bar clock
Hi guys,
1- badges for notifications. All my previous phones had this function.
2- more functions in auto mode for camera app, it's too basic for me. And in pro mode, I cannot set up the luminosity if the speed is in manual.
3- ultra power saving mode, like Samsung does, very useful when no more battery and we know no access to electricity for several hours.
4- Resize several pictures at the same time. Sometimes I need to send some pictures but the weight is too big.
1. Badges for unread msg or any notification
2. Always on
3. Camera should have more modes
4. Blurred wallpaper on lock screen
Always on clock
Ability to have status bar icons anywhere ie: signal on left
Ability to use dual cameras for wide angle
Ability to use normal USB-C to HDMI cables (not displaylink, Chromecast and wireless solutions are not fit for gaming, one of the 1+5s strongest points)
Screen off/on animation
List view animations
Full halo support
I'll think of more but that's my list of wants
