software update

[Brad Bilger]

Just for the fun of it I checked to see if there was a software update for my Tab 4 10.1.

Downloading 876.87MB now. I assume it's the 5.0.2 update that's been rumored. I'm only 66% downloaded right now.

OK, it is 5.0.2 and it's installed now. Takes a while. Seems to be running OK so far.

I've installed and played with it. It's a decent update.

Don't know that I'm a fan of the new look for Folders. After a cursory search through the settings, I don't see any way to change the look either.
:-\

When I updated my note 3, I didn't like the folder look either. I downloaded nova and love it. Going to install on my tablet here in a bit.

Is Nova launcher even available for tablets? I could swear I went to install it on my tablet before, but couldn't.

I don't know. I sure hope so.

I'll try it again. I came out with 4 pages with one icon on each page.

Guess I was wrong (or it wasn't available last time I tried, it was a while ago). Just finished installing Nova Launcher on my Tab. Though there was quite a bit of tweaking grid sizes and padding. Thank God there is a backup option.

I posted in the wrong forum.

Donloaded the update with no problems.

It did change the look on Internet home page headers.

Also lost the ability to tap on left or right side and change screens. It still
works when in Apps or Widgets screens.

Also changed the way you get to Widgets.

The folders are like S5 ones.

Also put a My Files folder on the bottom left of each screen.but it did get rid of that
Little Google Widget that couldn't be moved.
