when i use sygic to nagivate, weird thing is it will stop navigating after around 10-15 mins, very inconvenient when driving and dangerous too, sometimes will lose gps signal...

but i didn't face any prob with waze... only prob is it uses mobile data and i dun have unlimited plan sad.gif
*
I didn't get that kind of weird problem. 10-15 minutes is quite long! If me I'm sure fed-up with it.
So far sygic didn't give me any problem, just one time, I navigate to my friend's wedding house.
The last destination is not my friend's house, it stopped in the middle of the road. Did it ask me to fly from there? mega_shok.gif

This is my lock screen. Customised it so that I can perform most of my most needed functions from the lockscreen itself. You see the notification row at the bottom for emails chats etc? When I touch on it and slide up, I will open the related app. You see the "arrows" around the lock circle? Touching on them will reveal a few other programs.

Another view showing three of the "circles" being activated showing the programs that can be quick launched from lockscreen.

Home screen is very boring. It just has my agenda right smack in the middle so that I can keep track of what I need to do.

user posted image
Opening my app drawer will reveal this main menu where I have everything all laid out.

Of course, LMT launcher <3

I think I'll check the Apple appstore to see if there's something similar. Would be awesome to try it out first.

When will you be expecting to make the shift to the Xperia Z?

wta, other than waze, what other gps app that has 1080p reso support? my papago m9 dont support 1080p reso sad.gif

I am giving TomTom South East Asia a trial run first before buying it. It supports high resolution as well as lane assist. Best of all, TomTom is designed well for landscape usage, which is good as our dock is landscape. Only down is, USD 62.47.. cry.gif

I like the voice navigation, and the information given on screen is useful. Only thing I am evaluating is the map.

Lockscreen is WidgetLocker Lockscreen.., so everything you see on it has been customised by myself to give it the look, feel and functionality I want.

Battery Bar at the top:
Customised using Minimalistic Text.

Clock is ClockQ

Bottom notification done using Missed It!

user posted image

For all my arrows/lock buttons to access a program, I chose the ICS slider function of WidgetLocker. So essentially, I have 10 ICS sliders there. 1 central one with the lock icon. 4 around it with the arrows, and 5 at the bottom (one for each missed it task + arrow in the middle).

Take not though, this was customised before I discovered Slidebar Pro. With that, I can remove some of them now to clear clutter if need be, but not my top priority. biggrin.gif

Thanks!

All screens has consistently limited viewing angle. It's usable, just can't be expecting it to be as great as AMOLED for viewing angles.

Whoops! Forgot about that. LOL.

I am using Simple Calendar Widget. for that.

While we're on the topic of calendar, let me introduce you to something else. Quick Event here allows you to add calendar entries easily. All you have to do is type like you're typing a normal message, and it'll pick up from your message where to place the entries into the field.

Example, typing this:
Meeting with Auditors 15-17 tomorrow @ Wisma Auditor
It'll create an entry for Friday, 5th of April, titled "Meeting with Auditors", for 3pm - 5pm, with the location set for "Wisma Auditor". Instead of typing tomorrow, if you put there 09/04, it'll set it for the 9th of April instead. Makes adding stuff in your calendar that much easier.

Edit: I have been using a similar layout since beginning of last year. LOL. It has been slowly tweaked since then as time goes by. smile.gif. Gotta love Android.. so much you can do with it!
