My Dad recently got a GS3 and has managed to delete the icon for recent calls/call history that was on the far left side of the dock on the home screen. I've figured out that you can simply drag items on and off but I can't find that icon anywhere. I'm an HTC guy so I'm really lost here and would appreciate your help.
Thank

It's the "phone" app.

Ha! Thanks. He just told me the "recent calls" app, never thought it would just be the phone app.

Hello fellow TF300T users. I'm a proud new owner of this kickass tablet and so far I love it. I have one question I'm hoping can be answered:
Is it possible to clear notifications from the status bar at the bottom of the screen? At the moment I've got half a dozen notifications of installed apps, one captured sceenshot, and a Google+ comment notification. They need to go away, and I need to figure out how to do this as needed. I checked the Settings and haven't found anything that leads me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance for the assistance.

when you click on the bottom notification tab and it expands so you can see the notifications, press the "X" at the the bottom right and tadaa they are cleared.
First, press the notification-bar, all your notifications will appear (including clock, settings etc)
Now, in the lower right corner of your screen, you will see a blue X. Press it. The X clears all your notifications
Hey all,
I've got a Verizon SGS3 and I had a couple questions.
1. The notification power widget. It's got so much stuff and it takes up a lot of room on the notification shade. Is there a way to eliminate it or remove some of the useless ones? I never use bluetooth.
2. There's also a weird icon next to my 4G icon near the clock. Anyone know what it is? http://i.imgur.com/Cat4R.png And if I can get rid of it?
Also, bonus question: A way to remove all the useless ****ing share options for pictures/other files? I will never use S-Memo, Color, Group Cast, Messaging, Backup-assistant plus to share any of this ****. Go away.
Me too!
I have disabled everything I can think of and this icon will not go away!

I believe that's the "Wi-Fi Notification" icon that is persistent in Verizon SGS3 phones.
The only way currently known to disable it is to root the phone and modify a database value use a SQLite Editor.
Hello all,
I'm a relatively new OnePlus One owner and yesterday after I rebooted my phone, a new page showed up as part of my home screen pages. What was the first home screen page is now the second one and this new page took it's place.
Since I have no idea what it is, I'm attaching a screen shot for reference in hopes someone might be able to tell me. It's mostly blank with the text that says:
Get some extensions!
Looks like you don't have any installed
extensions. CM Home currently supports
DashClock extensions, so go get some and check
back here!"
Would anyone know where this suddenly came from and more importantly, how can I get rid of it? If I had wanted it there, I would have added it myself. Don't much appreciate a phone that doesn't respect user settings.
Thanks!
Tim
Nobody knows?
There must be some way of getting rid of this thing. It seems to have shown up after I updated to 38R. It's also mentioning something about Dash Clock. But since I don't have any app named Dash Clock installed, I have no way of uninstalling it.
Tired of these apps or themes, etc that just think it's fine to modify a user's settings and add whatever they want to a phone. I take the time to setup my phone for a reason. If I had wanted something changed or added, I'm perfectly capable of determining which apps I wish to have and where I wish to place associated folders, icons, widgets, etc.
Would be very appreciate if anyone could give me some advice how to get rid of that page.
Thank you!
It is part of the trebuchet launcher from cyanogen. You must have gone into the settings and turned on the CM Home search panel. Just go back into the launcher settings and change the search panel option to "off" and it should go away.

Thanks so much for the reply. I have looked already, but see nothing obvious listed in my Settings where I can find anything related to CM Home search panel. I have also searched for any apps that might be labeled as trebuchet, launcher, CM, etc. Would you mind telling me where exactly I can find such a setting as you mentioned?
Thank you again.

It is not in the phone settings it is on the home screen. Long press down on any part of the home wallpaper not covered by an icon or widget and you should see a menu bar pop up at the bottom with 3 icons for setting wallpaper, widgets and something else. There should be an up arrow near the top of the menu bar which when pressed will take you to the launcher settings, that is where you can change the options.

Rooted my Tmobile S7 recently and that icon appeared in the status bar. What app is it from?

I have the same icon! It's been driving me nuts. Sometimes it will go away on its own but it always returns...always. Have you figured out what it is?

You can take a look at the official list of Google Material Icons. If it's not listed it's a 3rd party icon meaning that it's either some app in your system or something your service provider installed.

Nope, have not figured it out. Since my phone crashed half a dozen times, I've decided to switch back to stock rom.
This is another thread about this icon: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...ps/mod-remove-rcs-service-volte-icon-t3362336
Hope it helps.
Thanks man, that's the one. Apparently it's like a super mms service
So when you slide right on home line with hints showing, it let's you slide through your recent apps.
How do you do this when you hide the lines aka hints?
Anybody have a clue? I've been trying to Google this and cannot! Find it. All I find is how the dot is gone and blah blah blah.... I want to hide the clues cuz these lines are annoying and I love gesture navigation! Now that I'm used to it... but I cannot swipe the home button to panel through recent apps if I hide them..

Weird, mine works fine without hints, I can swipe at the bottom left or right on task manager. Btw I'm on stock official pie update
mine works without hints too. same way as it would if you had hints.

You just swipe up left "button" and you go to recent apps. Only there you can swipe left/right thorough recent apps
I have had issues with getting this to work too. I am using the Bixby button - short press for back and long press for recent apps. Also double tap for flashlight. Good option since it doesn't seem to work without the lines on the bottom of the screen.
It sounds like it might only be not working for some phones. I have a Snapdragon S8+ on Verizon. The screen gestures do not work for me.

But with the hints showing you can swipe right on home line and it brings up a quick recent. Which is unavailable if you hide gesture hints
I posted just above saying that the gestures were not working for my phone a month ago. Well they started working. I can't tell you why. Verizon S8+. My phone isn't rooted. Need to fix my info.
