Random tip for xp3 (and others, but usefull on xp3): If youre annoyed that alot of apps, such as waze, display large so you cant see all that you are supposed to, you might want to play around with the screen size and dpi. adb shell wm size and adb shell wm density. The default dpi is 160, if you make it lower it will make things smaller, if you make it higher it will be bigger. You'll want to find the right balance between your other apps looking good and the system apps looking good. Random bonus if you do adb shell wm size 360x480 and adb shell wm density 225, you might get different looking icons. adb shell wm density reset and adb shell wm size reset puts it back to normal.

    Just letting everyone know. You don't need any app launcher on the sonim xp3 once you add an app through adb it will show up in the main menu under the "applications" folder!

      [Login to see the link] On the xp3, I don't think it's even possible to use the app launcher. I remember when I installed my first apps4flip app, I didn't know how to access the app, I tried dialing a certain code to access the app launcher, but the launcher wouldn't even work. Then I found all the apps in the Application folder...

        Techgen no not at all. What I was thinking, if the browser will come off from the menu I would like something else to be there instead. So I thought maybe there's a way how I can get an app launcher to show up in the menu...

          Gratitudetocreator I dont know what commands would pick whats on the menu, but in any case that launcher from kosherappsforflip kyocera works on the xp3 if you want it

            Techgen Nice tip can I do this for the LG classic also? It looks like it displays a drop too big compared to the exalt . Also is there a way to do this just for a specific app or I will always be across the entire phone.? thanks

              Phoney It should work for the classic also, play around with whats looks good, you can always wm density reset. I dont know of a way to do it per app, although I wish there was

              Gratitudetocreator It will be in the applications folder, like all other apps, If you want you can install button mapper and set a key to open that menu
