I mistakenly replaced the "Dialer Storage" shortcut icon at the bottom that was once in the Dockbar. I search through the installed apps, but I only see "Dialer".
I could be wrong, but I believe this is the default Android dialer... Have you tried reinstalling ADW - this might bring it back...you would, of course have to uninstall ADW first.

Maybe it was jus a modified shortcut icon and it really led to the dialer app?

Try "Anycut" from the Market. It lets you create shortcuts for hidden apps.

I used Anycut and found the correct dialer icon. Thanks
Search on the market for "CreativeThemez" for awesome themes!

To get the call log shortcut
Go to home screen and long press and select custom shortcut/pick your activity/activities/dialer storage
If you dont have any sub activity as above in dialer storage do as below.
Go to home screen and long press and select custom shortcut/pick your activity/activities/phonebook/Call log
And select any icon you prefer and save it on home screen.
Then simply drag it to the bottom bar any location u prefer.

Does anyone know of an app that can launch your app drawer?
Ive tried Desktop Visualizer, but it doesnt give me the option to launch the app drawer. i can only do it using the rosie.
I wanted to know if i could basically create an icon on a home screen to launch the drawer so i could use a completely hidden rosie.

Launcher pro or adw launcher can do this.

Yup! Just long press and add a "Launcher Action"... They will let you customise the icon as well
I prefer ADWLauncher EX the paid version

where do i long press? im using LPP and desktop visualizer but i still cant figure out how to use an icon to launch the app drawer
On an empty space on one of your home screens... as it you would add a widget or a shortcut.
Works fine on ADW Launcher Pro.

still no luck. i dont see where LPP or DV gives me the option to add a 'launcher action'
when i long press the homescreen, i get the standard Shortcuts, Widgets, LPP Widgets, Folders, and Wallpapers
where do i go from here?

Launcher actions are shortcuts I think.

I assume you need the ADW launcher for the extra options.

In adw just press and hold the launcher icon on the bottom bar and drag it up to the screen
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA Premium App
If you have LPP or ADW you don't need DV...
I think LauncherPro you would: long press home screen / add shortcut / actions / launcherPro / LauncherPro (app list in small type)
Hope that helps.
Though it is not really the "App drawer" its just a list... ADW actually gives you far more customisable options. Try the free one first if you like

In Launcher Pro, keep your finger down on one of the mi ddle buttons on each dock. It will say Edit dock shortcut.
goto change shortcut --> App Drawer.
Done

Sorry, ignore me, I see what you're trying to do. I'm not sure LP can do this. I can;t see an activity which replicates opening the app drawer. You might ask the developer. He's pretty good at responding.
I have your answer.
Adw.
Search settings for hide bottom dock.
Search settings. Use swipe up gesture for app drawer.
Done
I think I'm having the same problem here.
I was trying to launch the app drawer from the homescreen, not from the dock, but LPP doesn't have that option or perhaps I just don't know how to do it?
Using DV also doesn't help.
Any ideas?
So i found the thread with all the icons in the world and got some i would like to use for my TF.
I have been able to use them on the folders i created with folder organizer.
Butttttt.. i have not been able to find a way to change the icons/create icons for installed apps.
I tried anycut and desktop visualizer but they make the icons smaller and have different font.
on my phone i used to use shortercut i believe but this is not available for tablets.
so how could i get this done?
any suggestions?
Thanks.
Folder Organizer can do it. Go to apps, select the app you want to change, select icon.

that only changes the icons you see in the folders of folder organizer doesnt it?
it doesnt let you change them and see them that way on the home screen.
You can change an icon for any app you place on the home screen so long as you use Folder Organizer to do it.
Go into Folder Organizer select your app and change it's icon to one you specify.
Next go to add an item to the home screen and go to more and select Folder Organizer Item.
Next select apps and select the app that you changed the icon to.
There you go, you should now have a custom iconed app on your home screen.
w00t, your right.. awesome!
Just what i wanted.
Thanks..
Glad you got it working. Incidentally, you can also change icons with ADWLauncher EX just in case your interested.
Cheers...
When I want to permanently change an icon (well not permanently since it can be undone) I use apk edit. Just type it in the search bar and it should pop up. Or you can just apply them with a launchers such as Go Launcher, Launcher Pro, and ADW

It's in the ADW launcher settings, look for the dock icons option, then just drag and drop you apps you want in the new spots.

If you want more icons to choose from, download new themes from the market or from within dock settings under themes
If you want more icons on the dock it self (eg 5 instead of 3) then you hit the soft menu key, go to more. Click adw settings. Its in there somewhere under dock icon as stated above.

So I went to ADW settings, General Behavior and this is all I see. SENSE PREVIEWS, CLOSING FOLDER, SHOW NOTIFICATION, BUBBLE FONT SIZE, HOME BUTTON BINDING, SWIPE DOWN ACTIONS, SWIPE UP ACTIONS AND DOUBLE TAP ACTIONS.
This is really frustrating.
Do you mean as a shortcut icon, lets say if you click the icon the app drawer is launched?
The instructions I gave were for ADW Launcher EX. Sorry about that. Should've asked which version.

Hi guys,
I've searched and the only solutions I've found don't seem to apply.
I have a pretty out-of-the-box CM10 4.1.2 on Amaze 4G, and I've lost my applications icon (the circle with squares inside that lets you see all your applications) in the launcher at the bottom of the screen.
Now almost every post says "just long press on the desktop and select New" or to go to the menu, or to delete an icon and you will see a + where you can add a new one. Long-pressing for me just asks me if I want to change the wallpaper, menu options give me nothing, and deleting another icon does not give me a +. Long pressing in the system tray does nothing.
Launcher is Trebuchet.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Install a new launcher like Nova or Apex

Unless im missing something i cannot see any option to set the apps in alphabetical order in the app drawer, how can his be done please?
Also how can i create a new black page withut having to add in a widget?
Mine are in alphabetical on the stock launcher with numbered app first but I can't see an option to change it to not alphabetical.
I would recommend nova launcher, I use nova prime myself.
I use nova as well but I switched back to stock to see if I could help. You can rearrange the apps in the drawer by pressing menu on the homescreen and then swiping up on the menu to bring up additional options. Set the drawer sorting mode to title. I can't seem to create additional homescreen pages that are blank though.
