Im sorry if this was covered in any way. I searched and could not find a single thing. Sorry again if so.
Anyways... I am on 1.85 and have the 3 button mod for menu and remap home press as multitasking.
Its working great in general but in some apps its showing the wrong information for menu. One example is titanium backup. Normally when you press menu it brings up the option for batch runs etc. Instead its showing the main program options such as Help & Support, Market tools , and preferences etc.
Would take a long time to go thru every app manually lol
I can get a pic that would help too , just give me a bit.
Appreciate any help.
The latest version of TiB has a different menu system. I literally JUST updated it and was like WTF? There is a batch button in the upper right corner now that I don't think was there before.

Funny thing, this happened to me after upgrading to 1.85 ruu and installed clean 2.0 rom with 3 button mod..

Has anyone had a problem with not being able to hold, grab and move widgets and shortcuts on their homepages? Since last night, anything that is in the bottom 2 rows on any of my pages cannot be moved. A long press just activates the program. Severely irritating since I tend to place most of my shortcuts along the bottom to see the top of my background... Does anyone know of a way to delete a widget WITHOUT having to hold and drag to Remove (which I can't do since I can't pick them up >.< )?

Sounds like the touch input service has fouled. A reboot should fix it.
And yes, I have seen that on AOSP with home++ as well as 1.5.

I had actually decided to reboot the phone before I got the subscription note that you'd replied. It seems to have worked... but that's only the 4th time today I've reboot the phone. Wonder what's mucking things up...

Ahh. Well thanks for letting me know. Another mystery solved!
Hey all,
Does anyone know of an app that achieves the display of recently used apps in the notification dropdown area?
Essentially, performing the same function that a long press on the home button does, but obviously eliminating the need to press a button.
I've been looking for something like this for a good while, and was pleasantly surprised to see HTC had included this very function in their latest version of Sense.... when I went to the HTC London meet last week .
Unfortunately, the HTC guys demoing informed me there is currently no way to obtain this feature for current handsets.
To see what I am referring to, see the video below...
46sec <---> 51 sec
Is there an app that exists for this?
Thanks in advance,

I'm more impressed with the extremely quick startup.

I think that's discussed in another thread - I remember reading its not a 'proper' power down, that allows for such a quick start up.
Anyway, back on topic...
Actually I have been looking for something similar... My wife has a mytouch slide... And when you pull down notification tray it has recent 4 now I haven't tried scrolling sideways like that guy did... But that shows that it is possible cause the slide shows 4 recent...
Just have to find someone to port that I guess

Rather than a port, which sounds like more effort, I thought an app to enable this functionality may exist.
It seems not?
its going to need a port i think, i would hope for a slightly modified version that would allow us to pin apps to it or even widgets a la galaxy s.
If you hold down the home button for a couple seconds you'll get a list of the eight last used apps.
smart bar does this an more. recent apps in drop down and/or favs and/or you can choose a certain app and/or many many more options, i cant remember. you have option to enable all or only recent apps via settings and checking off the check boxs.
i use on my a81e tablet and it works well. my long press of home button is buggy due to fw so this come in handy very much
here
Does smartbar have a big footprint?
Would really love an app that does 'just' this.

No worries

I would like to suggest an app that can perform the action of clearing the notification with a single tap on it (much like how tapping on "Screen off and lock" app will do to off and lock the screen).
I often find it annoying to have some extra notification that I need to drag down the notification, only to clear it afterwards - where I may not want to click into it. For instance, I use a profile changing app (Llama) and it will notify me for any changes in profiles, but it won't go away until I clear it off. I am sure sometimes showing a notification icon is very sufficient already to notify us about something. No need to drag down notification bar to read the content and clear it later.
I know I am lazy to drag down and clear, but a single tap on homescreen to do the job is certainly much better!
Please let me know if there is existing app already.
i don't think there is much demand for such an app, since you already can slide down and press clear
but that is just what i think of it
well i would love such an app. i've also been looking for such an app for a long time but none exists. this is good for notifications that u already know about and don't need to see them so you just clear them away with a click without needing to swipe down and then press Clear.
Would it be s widget/ shortcut?

It could be either, as long as it does the job.

I am fairly certain this app is not possible per OS security--an app cannot clear another's notifications.

but if you have root...
I think it's how we can duplicate or mirror the Clear button somewhere else.. either via shortcut or app or widget.. and we probably need root for that..
I dont mind using the "clear" button on my Galxy W , just so long as they STAYED clear. Whenever another notification fires, I get past notification for nearly a month previous come up! - Its bloody annoying and Ithought it was a consequence of rooting, but a friend, with the same unrooted phone has exactly the same problem, so I think this may be a bug with this relatively new model - thought OTA, 2.3.6. update might have solved it but no, - still happens - anyone else have this problem ? (p.s. - have 46 notifications re-appearing at the moment!)
Has anybody found a way to do this? I too would like this functionality. I have tasker installed and thought maybe such a task could be created but I can't figure out how.
First, you revived a 1 year thread. Second, you have clear button. Why you would want an app for that?

First off, the last post was 6 months ago so I consider this a 6 month old thread not a 1 year old one. Second, revived thread = searched......something we all encourage here on xda. Third, what is the clear button you speak of? Is this a one click solution as was the point of this thread?

Yeah, the built in android notification clear button. Ob the status bar
Sent from my LT26i with Tapatalk 2
With that method you still have to open the notification bar before you can clear them.....2 steps.
The desired function is a one click solution. Like a widget you can place on your main screen you can just click to clear.
Why would this be desirable? Some of us get a lot of notifications and have very large phones. It becomes tedious to use one handed, i.e. to stretch your thumb to the top of the screen, drag the notification bar open, and click the upper corner clear button........especially when its a notification who's content we already know.
Is it a big deal? No, but there is many widgets out there that provide practically zero functionality while this one would actually do something many people could use.

+1 on this
on large screened phones like the Note, it's a major pain in the ass to reach all the way up to pull down the notification bar with 1 hand. There are workarounds such as installing Go Launcher and using the built in gestures to help pull the notification down but it's still a 2 step process to swipe down and click "Clear".
neeeedd
rly need this app....becouse i can clean all my notification whit a simple gesture in my lockscreen, no need to unloock....i cant beleave noone created this app....in google play there is so much **** and nobody creates an application so useful ... absurd ..
Resurrecting an old thread because it looks like the new "halo" feature being developed by the Paranoid Android team will have the added benefit of clearing notifications without having to stretch our fingers to the top of the screen when using the phone one-handed.

Hello everybody! My first post here, even though I've been reading xda for a long time and you're great!
I've noticed that when I use some apps (e.g. Opera) the default keyboard is missing the last line, that is the one with arrow keys.
Any idea if this is by design and why? And how could I get it back?
Thanks!

This is because the app was not developed for ics initially so the three dots menu was not considered in the beginning. It's the three dots which take the space of the last arrow line of keyboard. Totally normal.
You will find the arrows are there in some sense application such as message, but not in some 3rd party app.
If you had rooted your phone, there is a mod which can remove the three dots. I have not tried since very happy about stock and afraid of unlocking through htcdev.

I see, thanks. I knew about the 3 dots issue and ICS, but I hadn't considered the relationship between 3-dots black bar and arrow keys disappearing! Perhaps, when the specific app developer fixes the 3dots black bar in his app, we'll get the arrows back. I hope Opera won't take too much time for this: when browsing that bar is really silly!
I haven't unlocked for the same reason as you. The Sense 4.0 is awesome for me too! I hope someone will eventually find how to get S-off, so we can root without unlocking the bootloader.
I've installed the new Google Play app that has "installed" and "all" lists under My Apps, and the ability to delete apps from the "all" list. However, I keep hearing about others being able to multi-select by long pressing an item and then selecting other items, and deleting more than one app at a time. I'm not able to do this no matter what I try. Has anyone else got it to work on an Inspire?

I didn't know that was possible, but I can't either. When I have an app selected and try to long-press a second app, both get deselected.
After the first one has been selected (long pressed), tap on the rest.

That's what I've been doing. If I long press an item and then let up, it just opens that item to show it to me. I tried long pressing in the middle of the item, long pressing on just the delete symbol for the item, nothing works. Long pressing on the delete symbol just asks me if I want to delete that item.

Long-press 1 item, then short-press a 2nd in the middle.

OK, I laughed. I'll keep trying, but it just doesn't seem to be working for me. If I ever "get lucky" with this one, I'll report back.
more info and questions!
I've been reading some reviews of the new version and my screen looks slightly different from the ones in the reviews. At the top of the review photos, in the "all" app listing screen, I see not only a search icon (the magnifying glass) but just to its right, three small squares on top of each other. In some apps this is associated with switching from "single select" to "multiple select".
In other screens, in particular one where several items have already been highlighted (selected), there is a delete icon (the circle with a line through it) by itself at the upper right where the search and the "multiple select" icons were before.
From the screen shots it certainly looks like you select the "multiple select" icon, which then changes to a "delete" icon, and you select the items you wish to batch delete, finishing the deletion by pressing the "delete" icon at the upper right of the screen.
No one and none of the reviews have actually mentioned having to press a "multiple select" icon before being able to do a batch deletion.

I'm going to try backing up my ROM, running the no-sense script to remove Sense, and seeing if the new version works then. Once I've used the batch uninstall I'll reflash the ROM and presumably all will be well.
