does nova launcher take lot of resources? i hate these things that stay in memory and affect the user experience because of low ram (its like bloatware. u already have touchwiz, and now here comes another bloatware on top of touchwiz, so double the bloatware)
any comments on my comment above?

Use Home Manager app to switch your launcher. After set default..you can kill TW launcher so it wont keep on running in background process.

It's a one time kill after you set up your default launcher.
If you want to use TW again..just reverse the step.
Set default at TW then kill Nova. Easy as abc tongue.gif

By the way, does anyone practise regular rebooting (every couple of days or daily)? I heard an urban myth that if we do regular rebooting then the phone can be smoother as it gets rid of some junk and running processes?
*
Yes..you can freeze TW using Titanium. It just that i sometimes switching launchers so i'm using switcher.
I hates rebooting my phones unless it become really necessary such as FC or app freezing. Rebooting will only drain your battery as all the running apps will start building up their caches again. Gallery oso will start scanning all the contents again rclxub.gif

Does the home manager icon remain at the notification permanently? I found the setting to remove the quick switcher but i still have the home manager icon there. Its distracting since i dont use it often, i switch and i stay with it. Anyway to remove it fom the notification?

Thanks smile.gif

You can disable the notification.
Open the Home Manager app > menu button > setting > disable notification and quick switcher tongue.gif

Thanks for the opinions. I just realised that a couple of times (rare) my phone becomes a zombie. Battery drains and when i check it it seems that it is awake all the time. Didnt go to sleep probably some rogue app or process keeping it awake. Rebooting solves it. Since it is so rare, didnt feel the urge to install BBS to check out which is the culprit, so thats why i thought maybe regular reboot will avoid this from happening at unfortunate moments.
*
That's wrong way on how you handle roque app. The right way is to find the roque app first then either kill or un-install it. That's why most of us use BBS to narrowdown which app is the culprit the kill ONLY that app shocking.gif

hi guys... need some opinion and advice from you guys... is there any major differences in using a 32gb class 4 and class 10 microsd on S3? i just wanna use it for storing my music,video and photos as my internal storage is filling up. will it make any differences by using the class 10 for this?
*
Not so much different on performance..but since the price is only RM10 - RM20 different..then better buy the higher class

Happens when your phone fail to boot completely. Example, when you wipe cache and dalvik. Boot up will go update apps. If it hangs half way, phone will auto reboot into safe mode.
Yeah. Damn it...

Hmm..my phone never enter safe mode before so dont know what it is laugh.gif

Only JB for v5.5 right? I'm using JB. So how do I get my CWM right? In a mess now... uninstalled supersu.

Your CWM recovery should be working fine (three buttons combo). It's only the CWM manager app not fully working.

Yes, that's right... I see, so we leave the CWM manager app for how it is now, and hopefully there is a fix later.

Yeah..need to wait for Chainfire update his CWM manager.
