I've used ADW, Go and currently using Nova. I'm sure you already know this, but for others who dont, basically most of the Launchers have the same major functions, for me the most important is changing the grid size for homescreen and app drawer. In my experience so far, Nova is smoother than Go and can still import the Go theme icons.
You really don't even need that anymore unless you like links to be launched. If you have Chrome sync enabled there, you can see what pages are open on whatever browser you're signed in with. It's awesome.
EDIT: Itsmyfault beat me to it... Those aren't needed anymore. Chrome automatically syncs if you sign in. I can be on one page on my phone, get home and pull it up on my google tv....or my pc. (and vice versa) As for phones. I freaking LOVE my S3. Kicks my old phones ass...1000000x.
I'm in the process of flashing CyanogenMod 10 to my Evo LTE. This will give me Jellybean. I'm almost done. Hope to God this works. Never done it before. Edit: It's rebooting now...here goes nothing. Boot screen shows Cyanogen Mod.... Edit: I didn't realize I'd have to flash a kernel too. I did some things that I shouldn't have, stayed up way too late doing it, but in the end, I was able to flash mean Rom. I shall flash cyanogen 10 when I better understand what I'm doing and have more time. Final edit: got cyanogenmod 10 on my phone. It is awesome.

got a good deal for t-mobile at best buy today.. $99.99 Galaxy S3 (upgrade)..plus a $18 upgrade fee.. I didnt have to change my phone plan which is 4 years old..just had to add a $20 a month data plan(i already had the $15 data plan) so only $5 difference..Also T-mobile has a deal going on for December where they pay your bill.. I just have to pay the sales tax for the month of December..thats $140 of savings (family plan).. so essentially i got the phone for free!!

My Evo LTE with CM 10 (jelly bean) is so awesome. This ROM has made this phone tons better. way faster. I never knew why people raved so much about pure android, but now I get it. Its beautiful.
so safe to say google has botched this nexus 4 business right? wasn't planning on getting it until sometime after x-mas anyways...but its looking like i wont be able to order one anytime soon.
Yup. Seems like the Galaxy Nexus made a much larger splash when it landed (though, to be fair, it was the first phone with Ice Cream Sandwhich, whereas the Nexus 4 is just one of many JellyBean phones). I think the next Nexus phone from Google needs to be a big step up to keep their momentum from stalling.

Anyone know what is the phone AT&T sends out to replace the samsung galaxy S2 (insurance claim)? Thanks, for any info.
so nexus 4 became avail on the google play store today. was able to get an order in. real quick question: i plan on going with the 30 dollar, 100 min, unlimited text/data plan with t-mobile. i believe i read that during that sign up process you can port your number over. once i do that, does that automatically cancel my service with ATT or do i still have to call and cancel?
i didnt know they had a rate plan like that. would be perfect. im assuming an iphone is not eligible for it though right?
