Phone icon gone from Home screen - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

I recently Flashed GB and Valhalla. I can't seem to get the "Phone" icon on the home screen to show up to get to the dialer pad.
I have contacts - messaging - applications. Any fixes?

Is it in your app drawer? If it is, open the app drawer. Press on the menu key choose edit and drag the phone icon where u want it. Hit menu again then select "save". Let me know if it works.

No I don't see it in there.

Have you rebooted your phone? Maybe back everything up and do a factory data reset. That should fix it.

It's in there, unless you were unlucky enough to get a bad download.

Reset to factory and still nothing. Same 3 icons and it is still not in the app drawer
----------------------
When I drag the phone option on the lock screen to open it..it just freezes, kills and reloads to the lock screen as well as the EDT slide function on the lock screen. The unlock slide works fine.

I would download the rom again and reflash

Fixed. Just re-downloaded the ROM and flashed it. Thanks!

Ish. Well now it just constantly resets and reloads itself ..the launcher.
Constant soft boots.

Bad download would give an error 6 in CWM.

not 100 percent accurate.. Depends on how there download program works or os depening n which one they are running some will actually make the whole archive granted its blank but all the files are there and it fills in the data as its downloaded even if it gets aborted prematurely it still thinks its complete when its not

Visual voicemail

I tried looking for the tmobile one on the market but couldn't find it.
Is it available for this phone?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
comes preloaded/integrated with the phone app.
goto phone, select voicemail on the bottom, then go to settings, enable
Its weird I found it but I accidentally turned it off. Now when I go to phone then voicemail and hit the settings button nothing pops up! How do I get it back?

[Q] ICS Real Thing

I've installed ICS: The Real Thing and it's a beautiful ROM. I have an issue with deleting an entire message thread. Each time I try to do so, it vibrates, turns black, and says messaging has stopped working. It then force closes.
Also, I am unable to set permissions for TiBu. I went to settings>security>unknown sources (checked the box).
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Search button.
Use it.
Many answers and open threads about this.
Always search before posting to avoid getting rocks thrown at you and being set aflame.

And for the Good Cop answer: it's a common bug in UCAL4, delete via the menu rather than long pressing the thread/message.
Promiseofcake, thank you.

Is it possible to get a smaller battery icon and signal meter for this beautiful ROM?

Nav & maps FC

I keep getting a maps not responding error if I am using the navigation app and while I'm in it, change my destination or hit the start button. I know the obvious answer is well don't change your destination but if I accidentally hit back I have to select the start button again. It also only seems to happen when I'm traveling. FYI I'm on carbon ROM but I don't think that is the issue. Any suggestions?

Have you tried accessing the application settings and clearing it. Maybe uninstalling and then installing it back. If you use waze or another navigation app does it do the same thing. I myself have switched to copilot as my main navigation app now. Yes it costs but well worth it.

that my magazine thing is dumb....its basically a flipboard widget....i disabled it and turned it off
Agree with the above poster. I got annoyed with it, so I disabled it and have flipboard running instead. You can use it's widget to perform much the same way if you want to, but I'd rather not waste a home screen
By the way, to disable it, long press on an empty area of a home screen, hit home screen settings and you can disable it in there.

After doing what you did, I then went into application manager and disabled it permanently

I did end of disabling it but I am still wondering why it would not load any of the sections. They all just say, "content will be available later" so can anyone help with my issue?
Edit: weirdest thing, it started working today.

Is there a log to see error that happens?

My phone is randomly reloading pages when using the Internet. I get a flash of what looks like a white triangle in my status bar but it's too fast for me to make out what it is for sure. Reloads are driving me crazy! Even does it in the XDA app!! It sends me back to the start thread!!

U could use ADB to get a logcat.
