[Q] homepage and rotation question - Defy General

The defy has 6. And a home page. Im not using two of them how do i remove them? Tmobile was no help. 2nd question is there something that can rotate my screen upside down. ? Thanks for reading

I'm not sure whether you can do it with the stock launcher (though you should be able to) but I know with LauncherPro you can choose the number of homescreens by pressing Menu, then Preferences > Homescreen Settings.

thanks
I gave it a shot it works well. However i just don't like the home icons. I like the ones that came with it. (3) call. The circle thing and contacts is there any way to get them with launcher pro?

Well, you can change the default icons long-pressing on them. Choose the default ones or find some nice icon online and change it

Thanks
i got it looking good.! i would take a screen shot but i havent Rotted. waiting for 2.2. got everything but is any one having issues with the "Messaging App" the one that shows you email and text and gives you a preview. i cant get it to work says problem loading widget? any one know the deal.......press and hold on home screen,widgets,messages then select all messages and click done. "problem with loading widget.... other then that im at 95% done. 100% loving THIS $hit so glad i moved on from my touch pro II. gotta update my sig but to busy making my Defy cooler

Ps. The weather app & youtube don't always work. Any 1 else having this issue when i click weather nothing happens same with utube.

Hi, I am using 2.2 and sometimes my device hangs and reboots itself. When i was in landscape befor then the homescreen is in landscape after auto- reboot. So technically landscape is possible, but how to switch its orientation by yourself is a other question.
Greetings

To make it go to landscape once ur in launcherpro hit the 4 square button then behavior then check auto rotate. U should b good.

No ideas on the weather and utube widgets any one. I checked task killer but there are no apps on" auto close" and preview message box still not workin... if i pay im scares it still wont work. Has any one paid for this app?

any luck restarting the phone with advance killer turn off? u might have changed the setting to automatically kill the sense widget. also try removing the clock widget off and putting it back on. if u go to advanced task killer and press menu>setting uncheck autostart. then restart the phone and lets see what happens
i've done all that actually got rid off everything i had set up in advanced task killer, have tried getting rid of the widget and putting it back on a million times and it just deosn't want to work. i've tried everything and i have no idea why it isn't working, but it looked so nice when it did.
the widget you want is under 'clock'. so, on the home page you want to put it, hit menu, add to home, widget, clock (not analog clock) then hit the little arrow button at the bottom until you get to the flip clock with weather on it. select it. presto. you're done.

yeah k, i know that look at my screen shot.
anyone else wanna try this is so annoying.
BUMP for a problem that will probably affect someone other than myself.
hey mods can you guys move this to general or android development, maybe someone who can help me will see it there, and i would rather not make a new topic in a different thread. it's just really infuriating i have literally tried everything it hasn't been working right since saturday so i figured i would ask on here after a few days. this has to have happened to somebody at somepoint, it must be something simple i'm missing.
this used to happen on my G1 ..all u have to do is delete the widget from the home screen / restart phone / add widget again
Thank you will try.

Didn't work. Anyone else? Really like the widget I just wish it would work...

Reflash whatever ROM you are running over the top of your current ROM in recovery. You shouldn't have to wipe to do this and it should restore your clock.
If it still persists, then wipe and then flash your ROM in recovery.
under the setting part of the widget, try and set it to a specific location, not 'my location'. it may be that it can't find you. especially if you're on a wifi network
i'm not running a rom, haven't flashed anything. all i did was do unrevoked to get root for a couple of things, and i have it set to miami. with gps on and everything. though i am on 3g now and no difference.
all the widget has is the time, no date or anything and it says miami, no clouds no sun nothing.
Try downloading a rom..take the weather widget out place it on ur sd card install via astro ..
Verify your auto syncing it turned on.

(Q) Start menu equivalent.

One of the things I miss most from winmo is that, on WinMo, you always can access your 'all programs' drawer from the notification bar/start menu. You could use your phone heavily all day and only see the Home screen once.
I've searched high and low for an Android equivalent, but find nothing. Anyone know of anything?
Closest I've found is multitask manager, it attaches to search button, and let's you put preferred apps in it, but you can't put 'launcher' or 'rosie' in it.
Anyone know what I'm trying to describe? Or have any suggestions ?
Thanks
Also, I just realized this is probably in wrong subforum, toast or MOD, feel free to move it. Thanks. Sorry.

i am not sure the question here. are you saying you want it so that you have to go to the home screen to launch the app draw or are yous aying you dont want to have to go to the home screen to launch the app draw?
I am not sure what you are using but i dont have to go to the home screen to launch app draw. also you may try playing with launcher pro you can set up the dock to have apps on it. i use a combination of app organizer and launcher pro. I have the favorites group mapped to my dock and then i can favorite apps and get to them from that dock button. Works well for me.
I think you can set up the Power Strip app to show your app drawer.

He means he wants a universal way to access the app drawer from anywhere. In WinMo, the start icon / app drawer is always on the status bar.
Yeah, awardtour, you nailed it. Thanks. I see i accidentally used a double negative in my OP, making it confusing.
Yeah, i want to be able to launch my app drawer from the notification bar, or search button (any 'button' that is always present).
I use adw EX and LPP a lot, but have never found a way, within android, to acheive this functionality. If anyone knows, please share. Thank you.

I'm not sure of the name, but I'm pretty sure there's a gesture based app launcher on the market (or maybe here) somewhere that allows you to program a gesture to a app launcher so no matter what you're doing you can swipe the gesture and have an app menu come up. I'll see if I can find it for u.....

Hey, I tried wave launcher, its free on getjar right now. Its EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR! !!! Thanks for the suggestions. You can launch the wave no matter where you are (i.e. browser, messaging, app, etc) and and can have the app drawer button on the wave.
Hell, without even using the wave aspect, if you just hold the hotspot for a sec (to launch wave) it'll automagically open app drawer! !!!! Pure awesomeness. Just thought I'd share and thank.

Stop tilt?

I've tried Google without any luck..so I'm guessing this is a no..but I'm trying to find an app that disables tilt in certain situations only. I know I can disable tilt thru the settings..but that disables tilt EVERYWHERE. I'm just looking to disable tilt on my homescreen..while still being able to tilt while browsing Interwebz and whatnot. Seems like it should be an easy enough function..considering BB's have an app for it. Anyone have any suggestions?

Ok 1 - Android is not BlackBerry. Not even on the same level as one another, so just get that out of your head.
Second off, wtf do you mean on your homescreen? Sense doesn't turn landscape unless you changed the Skin to one built with landscape. Just switch it to the stock HTC skin, problem solved, it never goes landscape unless you open the keyboard.
If you're not using Sense (CM 6.1 or something) check the settings, as it usually has a way to disable homescreen rotation in their own personal settings.
Try CM6. It has the option for a custom power control widget to be embedded into the statusbar. You can put a toggle for rotation too. You loose the sense home and widgets though, but imo stock > sense. Or you could try quickdesk and put a rotation toggle widget on it.

Orly? Android isn't Blackberry? Good to know.
So lets begin...in order to "hide" all the bunk apps because I wasn't rooted, flashed, s-offed etc yet (all the things necessary to remove said apps) I had to download Launcher Pro (which was highly recommended). As soon as this was done..then yes..I was no longer able to use stock Sense. So now..my homescreen always tilts on me..which bugs the **** outta me. Could I just go back to stock Sense? Sure I could..but I'd rather have what should be a basic app to allow me to pick and choose where and when I'd like my screen to tilt. And I've grown to like how my homescreen looks over the stock look. Yes..I can disable autotilt in the settings..but then I can't even tilt the screen into landscape for the browser. So maybe I'm missing something here that someone else can point out..
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I am on a stock ROM myself still, but I know that Cyanogen has a lot of customisation options. I wonder if it's worth asking in the CM thread over on the G2 side (because the DZ one is dead) out whether that has options that might help you ?
You want to disable "rotation" all over your phone AND to be able to use the browser in Landscape mode.
If that is the only thing you want, you can set your browser to "landscape mode only"
Now if you have a longer list of requirements on what apps get permisions to rotate the screen etc, I think you may bigger problems

there was nothing offensive or said with an attitude in this post. it was only til you noobs came on here with misplaced android pride. he didnt compare berrys to droids. he simply said they have an app for it.
this is a great question. the tilt function seems almost too sensitive. it would be great to maybe tweak it somehow to make it so you really have to hold the phone sideways....instead of slightly tilt the phone. an app to block it in certain situations is good but i feel that id have to micro manage too much to specify every single situaiton id want tilt or not.
for the record... i'm am a die hard android user and his post did not push my buttons at all. this post is very useful.
ADW launcher has an option in system preferences for home screen orientation.
Just change it from auto to portrait, that's what I did.

Wow no one answered your question. Well here it is, when you are on the home screen hit the Menu - Behavior Settings and uncheck Enable Auto-Rotation.
That will disable auto rotation on the home screen. Now go into Settings - Display and make sure Auto-rotate screen is checked. This way you will be able to but your screen into landscape mode when surfing the web or using apps that auto rotate. Now if you want to be able to choose specific apps, that I have no knowledge of doing. Hope this helps.

Tasker (on the Market) can be set up to enable/disable auto-rotation on many different triggers, like when a certain app is launched. Plus it can do a lot more that that! Check it out I think it's well worth the money.

Excellent.
Glad I could help. I know I was having the same issue at one point in time and it was very annoying. I didn't want to give up on Launcher Pro because the widgets are awesome and it gave me "sense" on my stock android! If you haven't played with Launcher Pro Plus, you should give it a whirl. The widgets that are unlocked with it are definitely top notch.

This is the correct answer if using Launcher Pro, I'd assume it would be pretty similar for adw launcher too.

Every time I try ADW I am always disappointed with the jerkiness/lack of smooth scrolling. I try it once every few months but never stuck with it.
Definitely Launcher Pro for me, smooth, customisable, practical,... who could ask for more?

Obviously not tried this with beautiful widgets. Their widgets do not show up in app draw. Only way to get them to work is 'long-pressing' home screen, which we know doesn't give a widget option in ICS.
As far as I'm aware, you would need a custom launcher which has long-press home screen for widgets option. Not worth it imo. I uninstalled my BeautifulWidgets App within 10 minutes of paying 10p for it yesterday, not wasting that kind of money!

Lol, about half the widgets I've downloaded required a reboot to show up in the app drawer...when something doesn't work right, reboot.
A question, when I go in my widget setting to try and change it as I want to change something, I go into settings -> general and it force closes on me, I'm trying to get the black squares to disappear for the Ice Cream Sandwich Super Clock skin by a person named Tama-Chan.
If you can't do it using the app, is there any way to edit a current skin? I just want to remove the black squares and change the font to Roboto to match the ICS font? Any guidance would be much appreciated!

There was an update this morning that mentioned ics compatibility so maybe you can now edit preferences for a widget properly or you could try this:
I did it by removing and re-adding the widget. When you re-add it you get a dialogue asking you what settings you want to use which works.

problem after installing CyanogenMOD 7.1

ok so, I have installed CyanogenMOD 7.1 on wildfire. n it was running smoothly for 2days, until today.! the MENU task bar was somehow invisible. I had to restart the phone, n it was settled. so, any solution on how can I fix it? another thing is, the android MARKET is not there. how can I solve it.? it would be a pain in the a** if these two problems continued !
Market problem could be you haven't flashed gapps,search around forums for gapps and flashed via hboot like you did cm7.
Disappearing dock or status bars most likely due to swipe to hide settings. Test by swiping up on your screen or down on your screen to see if anything happens,repeat to restore bars again if its working.
"sent from me2u"
none helped. just flashed "gapps package", it included CAR HOME, GOOGLE SEARCH & NEWS & WEATHER.. now what else I should do ? :|
You need to have a Google account set up too?

1st when I tried, it gave me network error.. now it's done.. many thanx to u.. now please help me with that MENU BAR problem.. I rebooted my phone many time from this morning.! any solution?
What menu bar?
Do you mean the dock at the bottom with the phone, app drawer and browser icon?
Adw has a hidden app drawer which opens when you slide your finger up from the bottom of the screen, you can disable it in the settings.

see, http://lh4.ggpht.com/-nwIoW78vZWM/TwAuvDzn6MI/AAAAAAAAAJw/9VQu2PU8kY8/s400/123123123.png ..
that tab 1st showed this problem .. now, the google search bar is also creating problem.. it's not showing up.. If I reboot my phone, everything gets well but for some time
Go to adw settings and disable hidden app drawer or dockbar, I can't remember what its called now.

it is not enabled .. I have checked just now to be assured.. in the home screen, it's saying, "problem loading widget" .. ! :|
As scratch and myself have said its probably the adw hidden dock setting that is causing the disappearing icons.goto menu,adw settings and look for hidden dock bar and turn it off. I'm not sure of the path because I'm using the new adwex launcher which has removed the hidden dock bar.

Delete the widget and place it again, you've just flashed a newer version of Google search so the path of the widget has changed.
