General Android on TP2 Questions Thread
 
I figured I'd start a thread for the general operation of Android on our TP2's. Not "mine is not working" type questions like we see in the sticky thread. But more usage type questions for those of us that have it running well.

My question is how do you uninstall an app that you downloaded from the app store or that was already built in? It doesnt work or you dont like it and it is just taking up space.](*,)

Let em fly! We've all learned little things while just playing with Android.

In fact I have another question. Does anyone know how to stop random apps from starting in ANDROID. If you just randomly open Advanced Task Kilelr there are several apps running that you didnt open.

You can go to downloads in your market and then you will see a list of what you downloaded and then if you click on it, it opens another page and choose uninstall or remove or something. That is how I removed something I didn't like.

What I did was inside an app, hit the Windows key on your TP2, it will bring up the menu , then you can go to the apps settings and choose whatever you like. worked for me

you've been thanked. But what about the pre-existing ones?

When your in the menu off the home screen, you can click and hold a program, drag it to the recycle bin. I think that removes it also.

what's the difference in the different home screens? the Home one, and the Home plus plus? i read in a sticky that the home plus plus is working better on the android...but i cant tell why. what are the differences, the pro and cons of each, and the point of them?

Theoretically, is it true that since that Android apps are stored and run from the SD card, you can fill up the rest of your card with apps? I know that on Android phones, you have to store and run apps from internal memory, unless you manage to root the OS.

Its a different theme / skin for Android. It removes the top banner from the main screen and adds some shortcuts to the bottom. I noticed that Live wallpapers does not work with Home++ running.

In my opinion the Home + is more difficult to navigate. It also has some hidden menu things at the bottom of the screen that i dont really care for. Each one can do the same things. i think the regular home screen is more user friendly for someone who is learning android.
