yeah there are a number of apps I want to get rid of (questions in here too) imlad Send a noteboard - 18/06/2013 08:37:35 PM

I'm really not sure if they take up much space, but stuff like the IMDB app (nowhere near as good as it should be, I tend to use the browser over this app when I look up something there) and Audible both will not uninstall. I've even deleted the damned Audible folder several times, and it just keeps making a new one

I recently uninstalled File Expert and swithced to ES3 File Explorer (which has the benefit of looking more like the interface I've grown accustomed to over the years with Windows and Macs), and I like it more.

What drives me nuts though is the damned Carousel. Is there any way (app, or some technical tinkering in the software) to stop every app or file (book, docs, pdfs) I open from putting itself in the Carousel? Or to keep things from rearranging themselves in the Carousel?

Without rooting, is there any way to change the icons of the various apps? How about that gray shelving background that Kindle uses, can I change that?

Death to the Regressives of the GOP and the TeaParty. No mercy for Conservatives. Burn them all at the stake for the hateful satanists they are.

should I "root" my Kindle Fire or not? imlad - 11/06/2013 07:20:25 PM 842 Views
I'm an Android developer by trade, so I can probably help out a bit here. Aemon - 11/06/2013 08:02:03 PM 714 Views
I am not an Android developer but I agree random thoughts - 12/06/2013 06:36:18 PM 498 Views
Out of curiosity, why'd you put it back? *NM* Aemon - 12/06/2013 09:38:44 PM 378 Views
It was booting of the SD card and I wanted the memory back random thoughts - 13/06/2013 12:58:11 AM 489 Views
Sounds like you had a lot more than just root going on. Aemon - 13/06/2013 07:06:29 AM 790 Views
The Nook id the Barnes and Noble answer to Kindle random thoughts - 14/06/2013 06:00:27 PM 628 Views
I'm very familiar with that the Nook IS, just not with the latest software hacks and such. Aemon - 15/06/2013 06:21:38 AM 652 Views
Thanks for all the responses imlad - 15/06/2013 01:54:50 AM 526 Views
AEMON: Any particular apps you worked on? imlad - 15/06/2013 01:55:41 AM 587 Views
Well, I'm kind of a boring corporate Android developer, so no cool apps you'd know of. Aemon - 15/06/2013 06:41:46 AM 872 Views
actually, I think that's all pretty cool dude! imlad - 16/06/2013 04:17:31 AM 597 Views

Well, it looks like it may be a little too late for this but I did root my Android. everynametaken - 17/06/2013 02:55:13 AM 515 Views
