[Q] Uninstall icons?? - G Tablet General

The Gtab comes with a Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, etc icons installed. These arent real apps, just links to the mobile websites of theirs. Now that I installed the enhancement pack, how can I get rid of those icons that really are worthless now? I cant find anyway to uninstall them. Thanks.

I'm not sure about TnT because I use VEGAn but I'm thinking if you have ADW as your launcher maybe you can simply tap and hold the icon until your homescreen pops up and then drag and hold the icon over the trash can that will pop up until you see that ADW will say something like "Drop to Uninstall" then release the icon into the trash can?
Again I'm not sure.

Yes, just tap and hold the icon to the trash can - very easy

No,that doesn't work. The icons are in the app drawer not the homescreen. And they aren't showing up in the manage applications under settings. Its got me stumped.

yeah i guess in a way it does. also leaves the bottom of the screen faded. This is actually a dockbar for you to drop apk into for quick finding. what Im looking for is a completely hidden app drawer button on the home screen. it used to be an option but not anymore.

[REQ] Launcher Pro transparent App Drawer

I wanted to do the same also - so I did a bit of investigation. Actually turned out to be pretty easy. I use GIMP 2 program. After you follow the direction below save it as a .png file with any name. Save it to a folder on your phone. Then hold down app drawer icon on phone till popup box - select change icon. Navigate to the folder where you saved the transparent icon and click on it to select it. * it is transparent so you wont "see" the icon click on the screen and it will pick it * And that's it. Enjoy! - I know I did
GIMP 2 makes it easy to create a transparent image:
1. Pull down the File menu.
2. Pick "new."
3. Click the "+" sign next to "Advanced Options."
4. Select "Transparency" from the "Fill with:" menu.
5. Click "OK."

I believe he was asking for a transparent background when you OPEN the app drawer, like ADW, not a transparent icon FOR opening the app drawer.
I want side by side pages in the app drawer like ADW. Might have to switch soon if launcher pro doesnt step it up. I tried requesting stuff on their forums but it gets overlooked.
I love the launcher pro widgets so I'm not switching to ADW anytime soon, but I would love a transparent app drawer background.
+1 interest in transparent background for the app drawer...
+5 if it still maintains the 3d perspective while being transparent!

Holy crap man did you really say that??? You know Fede release updates pretty frequently to LauncherPro right? If the side-swiping app drawer feature is missing it's either because:
- Demand for it is low
- It's not important
- It's been overlooked
- Fede just doesn't want it in LauncherPro
But to say "if Launcher Pro doesn't step it up" is a little unfair at best. To each their own but LauncherPro is awesome.
I don't want to crap up this thread so I'm out
3d/transparent sounds awesome.
I would also dig the hell out of that.
someone get a response from a dev
Posted it on their forum.
where so we can follow it and show support!
sorry
I talk to the dev alot this is a no go it would causealot of instability any other colors
i think that if it can't be transparent black is the most professional and simple look.
any explanation as to why it would cause problems? i have seen some ROMS that have included a transparent app drawer, and i'm assuming they're not releasing roms with known problems like that?
yeah other launcher have it too,, adw, dell stage, modified touchwiz
i currently use modified touchwiz and this is definetly stable and bug free with transparant app drawer...
so it's a lil odd story..
Oh man, I REEEAAAALLY really really really want this.
Ive already bought the dang paid LP version so im pretty much loyal either way.... but I will admit the clear ADW drawer ALMOST won me over before i took the LP leap.
There's GOT to be a way to do it.. just havent found it yet.
+1
3d + transparent and then there's no contest.
Yep, count me in... I'd love that in LP.

3d app drawer with a custom wallpaper is an absolute must for me as I have a custom housing in which the pattern from the housing follows onto the wallpaper so when when apple drawer opens it loses the effect and I love launcher pro so quick!!!! PLEASE HELP

remove home button

Hi guys, I have searched preware but is there any way to remove the home button from the quick launch bar on my pre? I use the upward swipe and find it useless and want to replace it with another icon. Any hints? thanks.
+1
I'd love to have a launcher that scrolls like Zeam, ADW, Launcher Pro. 5 icons is too few for me.
True, like android that would be great too-there are patches that change the icon size/ rows etc, and one that hides the quick launch bar but nothing to remove the home button so far.

I've looked through the patches to see about changing the rows/size, can you point me to the ones you are talking about?

[Q] Any way to add shortcuts to the status bar?

There is a lot of empty space between the task switcher icon on the left and the clock on the right. Would be a perfect location for shortcuts to running apps etc.
That's a pretty good idea but as far as I know there is no way to do it unless some clever person has worked it out.

samsung has something like that on their SGT 10.1-roms... Maybe its possible to port that?
I don't find it THAT useful though...
there is a .app, something like quicklaunch, I use it with HC but can't remember the name... u should search in the market... but it's only quicklaunch, can't put shortcuts in bar

There was an application called Wizz Bar, you might be able to find it somewhere online. It allows you to press in the open space in the middle and it would open a little box over any application which you could launch from. That might work?
Here it is: Wizz Bar
I will look into Quick Launch, thanks.
It looks like Wizz Bar no longer works on ICS

Also try Elixir. cant remember if you can customise complicated shortcuts, but i know you can add toggle switches as well as quick launch apps

tapping that pops up a mini toolbar which you can customise with all sorts of toggles and switches.

press hold on the icon and let go a little paintbriush will appear hit that and you'll see from there. just put the icon on your phone in a folder so it's easy to find in the gallery app
