[Q] Quick AWD launcher question - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

I was using my phone on cyanogen 6.1 and the bottom dock has disappeared, it was replaced by a light black bar about 1/5" tall. How do i get the dock back?

I haven't used ADW for a while but if I remember correctly you just press and hold your screen as you would to create a widget and select custom shortcut then open/close app drawer then just place it where it normally would be at

That is the hidden dock. Per default, it is opened by swiping down on the screen. Swiping a second time should bring back the normal dock

Yes, as above poster stated.. swipe downwards to get it back.
If it does not come back (which I've had happen if my phone goes into landscape mode) I usually just restore my settings from the awd options.
Also, if you want to completely disable the extra dock as I have:
Settings > ADW Settings > UI Settings: Under the "Hidden Dock" section, disable the first checkmark.

ADW Lancher dockbar lockdown?

Is there a way to lock the Dockbar, so when you swipe up while pressing on it, it doesn't disappear.
I checked the settings and didn't see anything to lock it down, but maybe I missed something.
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
System preferences/ swipe up actions.. you must have this set to show/ hide the dockbar.. also see this... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7135799&postcount=183
Thanks. I figured it out, I just needed to drag down while over where the dockbar was.

It would be nice though if there was an option to lockdown the dockbar.

Agree with you.
It needs to be lockable, and also being able to drag it up to open.
Isn't the author of this app an XDA member? maybe we should ping him to see what he thinks.
I thought the same as you two at first, being used to Helix Launcher and the default X10 Home where sliding the drawer up is key.
However, I've since changed a few settings - slide "Up" to enable/disable the Notification bar (because to me as the bar is at the top, sliding towards it to enable/disable seems logical), and slide "down" to enable/disable the dockbar.
When I first tried ADW I was constantly sliding the button by accident. Now I just press it. It took me about a day to get used to it. Now it's not a problem, because I know that even if I hide it by accident (with that initially-natural impulse to "slide the dockbar button up") I can get it back IMMEDIATELY with a quick slide-down on the screen.
I've also changed the drawer screens to one long vertical screen rather than the horizontal pages - this works MUCH better than the stock/Helix versions because it remembers the position you were in when you were last in the drawer. And it's much better than the crappy horizontal drawer where you have to be REALLY careful when flicking horizontally. I also think that - somehow - because the drawer works better this way, I am less inclined to "swipe" the button by accident when I want to activate the drawer.
So if anything I'd suggest -
1) Disable the dockbar hiding when accidentally swiping up on the button
2) Set "swipe up" & "swipe down" defaults as I mentioned above (as it seems more natural)
3) Set default drawer scroll to vertical rather than horizontal as it works sooooo much better.
Seriously, I know what you are both saying but once I had tweaked the settings it's not been an issue for me anymore. At all. And that surprises me as I was firmly in the "Helix Launcher FTW" camp for ages but now I love my ADW Launcher...
Hi.. rodney and aussie.. Are you taking about the dock bar or the action buttons? Sounds like your taking about the action buttons..
Ie.. The ones with the app drawer Button in the middle.
Think you can switch the dock bar off, which is "underneath" the action buttons, if you don't need it.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Well, I'm referring the actual Dockbar, not the icons within and and not about "swipe up" setting.
If you hold you finger on the Dockbar and swipe up it will disappear. That's fine, but for those that accidentally do it and don't want it to disappear, it just a nuisance. It would be great to be able to lock the Dockbar in place so it would not do this.
try this.. ADW settings, ui settings, [uncheck] Dockbar option...
Think this might solve your problem.
That seems to have worked, thx iceman
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
When you were swiping up before what you were actually doing was revealing the dockbar, which is hidden underneath the action buttons, however when you reveal it, it has no apps in it and so it looks like you've hidden your action buttons. If you want to try it.. Switch the dockbar back on, reveal it (by swiping up, as you know!) Then drag an icon down into what appears to be an empty space... That's your dockbar. To make it disappear and give you your action buttons back quickly touch the app icon and drag down.. Et voila..

I actually figured out the drag up to make it disappear (LOL) and shortly after that the drag back down to make it reappear. But didn't try adding icons to what appears to be a dead space. Cool
ADW Launcher is amazing, but does have a lot of features, which takes a while to wrap your head around.
I set my home button to open and close the dockbar, I find that to be the fastest for me. I would really love if there was a back button binding as well, because when you are in the launcher the back doesn't really serve a purpose. I would totally put it to home screen. oh well.. still the best launcher I have seen.
I've set my home button to show me a "preview" of all 7 of my screens - felt a little odd at first, but I love it now.. 2 presses away from any screen.
Oh, is there a way to set whatever screen you want to be your home screen?
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
Yes - In Screen preferences - 3rd option down from the top - default screen..
Then you can change your home button binding (in system preferences) to "move to default desktop"

Worked perfectly, thx again Man, ADW is just amazing.
One feature I love is the ability to add more columns and rows. I set mine to 6 columns and 8 rows, using 3 screens. I just love having as many icons on one default screen as possible, then widgets on the others screens.

If you swipe it up it opens a drawer where you can put more icons, it doesn't disappear.
There's a new version of ADW out, but I can seem to download it via the marketplace. Anyone have a link to download it? Thx

How to Change Launcher Icons

Is there a way to change the 4th default launcher icons without using a 3rd party app?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
As far as I know you can only change the first three..
Use a better launcher, or just deal with how much the TW launcher sucks.
you need some way to get into your app drawer
Stupid autocomplete, I meant the 4 icons in the launch bar. Where are the settings to change them?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
ok so you dont know how to change any of them? the 4th one is permanant so you can get to the app drawer. the other 3 can be changed by
open app drawer>press menu>a)if you see an option that says edit select edit, b) if not go to next step >press view type> select customizable grid> press menu> select edit> move icons as you like including the dock icons> press menu> press save> now if you wish you can change the view type back to the one you prefer with the app drawer open by hittin menu> view type.
Thanks. I figured they buried the option somewhere I just couldn't find it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
there are a lot of things hidden on this phone. there is a big list of hints and tips somewhere for the captivate that will tell you how to do many things. two usefull tricks are..
1 if you turn the auto brightness of the screen off you can set the brightness by holding a finger on the notification bar for about 2-3 seconds until the pulldown goes away, you can slide left to right to get the desired brightness, i used to use the power control widget and wondered why samsung didnt put a brightness toggle in the pulldown untill i discovered this, now my home screen has one less widget.
2 on the swype keyboard you can access a directional pad by swyping from swype help key (blue "S" with a little "i" over it) to the key that says "sym" on the captivate the samsung keyboard also had a d-pad by long holding the "?123" key but they took it out in 2.2
between those things (especially the d-pad) the phone is more enjoyable
Thanks Dani897. Little things like this help so much.

ADW dock

Whenever you swipe the dock at the bottom, it disappears. Is there a way to turn this feature off?
I always end up dragging an icon off the dock and then accidentally hide it.

This is a feature of ADW. ADW has not only the main dockbar but also can show a "hidden" dockbar. To get acces to it, just swipe at the bottom (as you did). If you don't have any shortcuts in that hidden toolbar it "seems" that only the main toolbar dissapears.
If you don't want to have more shortcuts in this hidden toolbar you just can disable it via ADW settings:
- enter ADW settings
- in there select user interface (I'm not sure if this is the name in english, my menu is German, but its the second one from the top)
- there hit the last one called "hidden dockbar"
- deselect "hidden dockbar"
I also had the problem with deleting accidently Icons from the dockbar. You can prevent this by a great feature in ADW:
- enter ADW settings
- choose "more"
- select lock homescreen.
Now all icons, widgets etc. in the ADW screens are "locked". This means they can not be accidentily moved or deleted neither the screen will react on a long press. Also the main + hidden dockbars are protected from changes / deletions. If you want to change anything, just temporarily disable the homescreen lock.
Hope this helps
P.S.: you can add much more shortcuts to the hidden dockbar than on the main dockbar (max 5 there).
Ah thats why i always miss it because i always thought that section on the settings was referring to the regular bar.
Thanks!

great app this go launcher but themes are a lil buggy
I'm also trying to find out if that menu/settings bar cab be hidden or disabled. Using gestures I can access the settings, so I don't see that menu bar as being necessary.
Yeah, the settings bar is awful and pointless. It must be able to be removed. I've been using GO for over a year on my DHD but if this is the case I won't be any longer.
As said you can access the settings by swiping up, or from the pull down menu (let alone any other options ie icon on screen/dock, gesture on a dock icon etc).
Bug in GO EX? Or user error?
I think I found a bug. Here's how to repeat:
1. create a navigation shortcut on a home screen.
2. create another navigation shortcut on the home screen.
3. Drag #2 shortcut on to #1. Note a folder has been created.
4. create a third navigation shortcut on the home screen.
5. drag #3 shortcut into the folder you created on step 3.
6. note that instead of 3 shortcuts, you now have 2. (sometimes 1). Creating new shortcuts and putting into the folder deletes previous ones.
This a known thing, or am I Doing It Wrong(tm)?
where to change the grid setting for landscape mode ? pls help
Is it possible to change the default app that opens when pressing the 5 dock items - phone, sms, browser, apps, ?
say for browser can i set it so that Opera opens when I open it ?
Another thing, in normal HTC sense, when I went into App drawer, and pressed the setting key, I would have the option to select "Remove app" and in that I can select the "Running" tab and see what services and processes are running.
This running tab seems different from the running tab that is shown when i go to the app drawer using Go Launcher - is it possible to use the Sense "running" tab or set the Go Launcher running tab to show just like the Sense one ?
thanks
Tablet dock scrolling?
I'm running the HD version on my Transformer Infinity with the CROMi-X 4.5 rom. Does the dock scroll so that I can add more items?

i think Nova launcher is the best because it's very simple, smooth and stable. it doesn't make the desktop cluttered with lots of unnecessary information.

where is the menu softkey

I'm trying to acccess apex launcher settings from home screen and I can't do it
The menu softkey is usually a series of 3-4 dots stacked up. Either in the lower left next to the recent apps softkey, or sometimes in the upper right.
Oka..
I have seen this and I noticed that with apex and nova the menu button does not show when on home screen.. I have been using aokp and manually enabled menu however once pressed it does nothing.. This would indicate to me that when in tablet mode these launchers disable the menu.. Most likely have to open the application draw then press the menu in top right corners.. OR put a shortcut to the apex settings on your home screen
