What do you use stock, and what do you replace?

[AdamHunterATC]

I'm just curious what things on your One M8 you keep as stock, and what things you replace? I'm referring to things such as the launcher, SMS app, calendar, keyboard, etc. Also, give a brief explanation why.

Looking forward to seeing the responses!

launcher

Nova, no matter which phone I'm on.

SMS app

Textra, so far, but I can be convinced.

calendar

Cozi, because that's what the family uses, and we all know what appointments and work schedules everyone has.

keyboard

Swift Key, at the moment, and Hacker's Keyboard when I need a full keyboard. (Nothing with swiping - I just can't get the hang of it.)

I use the Next 3D launcher, Handcent for texting, stock calender (of needed at all), and Swype for Keyboard.

I think the only stock app I use is the music player

I have only replaced two things so far. The launcher I keep going back and forth between Next 3d launcher with the new trek theme(totally nerded out on that! ) and Sense Blinkfeed. It's hard to continually use Next full time for the sole reason of it being "cool"! I feel that Blinkfeed is just more functional. I have permanently replaced the music app with Poweramp and the keyboard with SwiftKey.

I use nova launcher. Google Callander. Play music. Google keep.

I use a different keyboard. Normally Google keyboard or Fleksy but haven't yet settled on one I'm totally happy with. Trying swiftkey again now.

I've tried all the different sms apps but keep coming back to stock as its no fuss and just works. Do use what's app for most messaging though

Must. Go. Find. That. Theme.

I've seen other Trek/LCARS themed launchers, but they were usually involved with a lot of separate installations to fully work. The Next 3D must be really new because last I check a couple months ago, it wasn't there. I'm currently on Blue Twister.

Chomp for sms. More options. Easy and clean.


Chrome for browser. Clean, easy and fast. Syncs with my desktop Chrome browser.


SwiftKey for keyboard. Accurate with great predictability. Fast.


Business Calendar for calendar. More options. Clean and easy.
