Hey guys, I just installed the CM10 custom rom for JB 4.1 on my htc one v. Everything works great, but I just can't stand having that ugly Google search bar on top of the home screen.
I don't want to use GoLauncher or anything like that to remove it, so I was hoping you guys know a mod that'll help.
I've tried installing this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1741038 but it seems I've gotten ahead of myself, and broke something with this mod, so the phone keeps restarting after 5sec of run time. The mod is for 5x4 grid sized phones... and I kinda ignored that thinking it'll work fine :>
Please help me find a working mod, or a solution to end the restarts
Lol easy
Settings
Launcher
Home screen
Deselect the persistent search bar
Now come to ur home screen chick and hold the Google search bar and remove like any other widget
And there ur done

Running dc3.5 with launcher pro. I've got the search widget on my home screen and after the first time I use it after a reboot it jumps to the top of the screen and doesn't work at all anymore till I reboot. The search key will bring up the keyboard to enter text but won't actually enter anything into the text field. Any ideas why this is happening? I'm sure it's an issue with launcher pro because I was having the same problem when I was running the widget and lp on dc 3.2.x before I lost my old evo (rip )

I'm currently running the most recent Fresh ROM and using LP Plus and don't have any issues with the Google search widget. I can enter text and also the voice to text works almost flawlessly on it. HTH
lucky you. I'm gonna try to uninstall and reinstall both again.
Also, I've switched roms to Ava6 and i'm still experiencing the same problem.
fixed
I had the same problem and finally came up with an easy fix. I know its going to sound weird but bear with me.
First hold down on the searchbar and drag it to the trashcan. Now go to another page, yes it does have to be another page. Clear a desktop row that is not the top row. Hold down on the blank row and add the Google search widget there. Now hold down on it and move it back to where you originally had it. And fixed......
Hope it works for you.

Google search brought me here... I can confirm that this does seem to work; I'm using LP v0.7.6.0 on a Samsung Captivate SGH-I897 running leaked froyo build
I had this same issue, reinstalling LP fixed it
Im also having this issue. Ill try those strategies. So far moving the bar around hasn't helped. Running leaked Froyo on Samsung Captivate.
Edit: Problem solved by using "Google Search" widget rather than "Search" widget. They look and preform the same. Why I have two of those and what the material differences are, I'm not sure! (maybe one is an updated form and one is legacy)
Do you guys think when you re-installed LP you may have switched with search widget you used?
youre crazy widget moving black magic method worked!!!!
I can also confirm the work-around. The new widget no longer animates to the top.
Hi all,

Sorry mate. It didn't work. Besides the fact it resetted all my icons and home screen to the default state, it hasn't done anything else.
Still has the problem
In one of the settings for the launcher you can choose from various docks.Also transparant. Isn't that he problem.
can you navigate me where exactly can I find these Launcher settings you're mentioning?
thanks.

What happened? I use my alarm clock everyday..and today it disappeared. I downloaded Alarm Clock Extreme at some point, cause I read that people had problems with the alarm function disappearing, but I didn't have a problem till this morning. What gives...and how do I get it back, without wipping out the phone?if there is no fix..then I will just keep using the program I downloaded in case of emergency
Thanks

I know the OTA 2.3.3 update broke a lot of peoples phone (including mine). What ROM are you running?
I dont know but in my incredible 2 if i touch the big clock i could see the alarm and the weather.if you dont have the big clock you can go to personalise and you can find the alarm clock. I have skyrider rom.
If you have rooted your Inc 2, and using titanium backup, you can get the clock back by going into the backup/restore section and scroll down till you see clock.
click on it and hit the the defrost button. Restart and you will have your clock back.
If not rooted... Sometimes a hard reset will work, but it will be like starting all over again with your phone.
It's an ongoing issue, the app is still there but the icon disappears. One easy way to get it back is to download Any Cut from the market (it's free) and use that to create a new shortcut to the clock app. Once you do that, the icon will be there to stay, it won't be affected by whatever bug causes the app's original icon to disappear.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
I am running a stock from. I haven't done anything g to the phone. It was working after the update, but all of a suddened it stopped working.
This issue was brought up a while back on XDA here. And is also being tracked on HTC's own forums here.
From the looks of it HTC hasn't yet released an update :-/
Hi,
I am new to Androids and I have tried to search my problem before posting but cannot find the right thread.
I have just installed the 4.2.2 Paranoid Android to my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 I317, all I cannot quite figure out is how to delete the extra/empty home screens to the left and right.
I have tried pinching, double tapping, and holding the screen but none of those give me an option to remove the excess pages. I only like to use 1 page.
I have googled this issue and some just say to install another launcher, but i just want to keep it pretty the way it is and also to prevent unnecessary battery usage.
Anyone know how to do that?
Thanks a million!
From home screen press menu button and then edit page.you will see all the screens just drag the ones you dont want to trash.

What you need to do is go to you home screen and push the home button (only button on the front of the phone. All of your pages will show up. Ling press on the ones you dont eant and then drag th to the top of the screem where the "x" is. This will work. What launcher are you using? To each there own but I recommend nova

Hello
I've recently installed Paranoid Android 3.15 on my Galaxy SIII i9300. I'm also looking for a way to delete homescreen pages. I've tried all tips above, but I can't seem to find it.
I'm using the default launcher.

Hey Fellas, want to remove share bar in sense 6 (4.4.2 arhd) once you are inside reading an article. That black bar takes a lot of screen and would like to be able to hide it atleast or similar so I get more text on screen.
What to do?
1st of all. .WRONG SECTION..ASK QUESTIONS IN Q&A SECTION.
ANS- You mean on-screen buttons? Use Trickster app to remove 3-dot menu.

Oh sorry, didn't realise that.
I'm talking about when reading article in blinkfeed see here https://d13yacurqjgara.cloudfront.net/users/22485/screenshots/1493015/htc_blinkfeed_detail_1x.png
do you see the black bar in top.. the share options etc.. Takes a lot of space!
What would be great is have menu pop up with single press on home button or similar and get those options there. (only option I would need personally is read later and go back. Going back is already possible with normal backbutton and reading later is also already available if you go back and longpress an article (seems a bit buggy though doesn't always work)). Then we could get that 15% extra screen when reading!
