Those little things...

[DarsVaeda]

Those little things make life perfect and so do they make the Android.
Unfortunately they are not easy to find but if you do its like an "AHA"-effect.
Maybe that's even the good thing about them?

Still they make handling Android so much more comfortable I do not want to just step over them.
So I want a list!
Where would I find something, or do we want to setup one here (if not exists already)?

What I mean:
- like when you are in the gallery and select one folder and drag it, it will float through all images still in gallery overview
- or when you type into the keyboard and swipe the finger up you get the numbers and one more swipe you get some extra characters

Man that stuff comes handy!
Maybe you discovered on your first day but I didn't

Sorry, do you mean this as a wish list or a list of existing features? My Android 2.2.1 stock keyboard certainly does not do this.

Nein das ist keine Wunschliste (No it's not a wishlist)

I'm on FRG83D and it does it!
Hold the "T"-Key pressed, then swipe the finger upwards -> do this face

I love this "swipe up for numbers" thing. Its way faster than long press or switching to the special characters.

But it seems that features has been removed in gingerbread.

Personally, I've always felt the notifications system in android was pure genius. Its the one thing I *REALLY* miss now that I've got an iphone.

You can express your opinion, but there's no need for name calling.

the iphone doesn't have a real notification system unless you count those in-your-face-pop-ups-that-interrupt-everything-you're-doing. hopefully they create a better notification system in ios 5

Your keyboard is broken lol

It's not - the gesture actually worked once a full explanation was given as to how to activate it.

Sheesh, the childish responses from some people...

How do you do this??? I just tried it in my Gallery and it doesn't work. I pressed and hold on one folder and it just show the check mark as if i want to select that folder or all folders in the Gallery. I can't hold and drag like icons on the homescreen.

Running CM 6.1.1 latest with iNexus custom icons/theme.

Very disappointed when I found this. Why the HELL would they take this out?
