[Q] Power Control widget gone - T-Mobile LG G2x

Stock rooted 2.3.4 GRJ22 V21y. Today my "power control widget" disappeared. Ya know, the blue bar with Wi-fi, bluetooth, gps, and two other buttons I never use. How do I restore this widget? This is almost silly...

Make sure your screen is on and hold your finger down over a empty part of the screen, one that does not contain any apps. After a second or two a menu should pop up with some options and one should say widgets. Select that option and the power control widget should be listed there.

}
The option should look similar, but maybe not exactly like this. Select widgets.

Slightly Bored. Extremely Helpful.

never mind
Wow, I'm sorry, I was dealing with my early-dementia father-in-law and I was out of it. The next time I picked my phone, I was, "Doh". But thanks for the reply.

Weather and Toggle Widgets vs Beautiful Widgets

So, I've had Weather and Toggle widgets for ages...since I got my phone about a month after Launch (Epic 4g). I paid like 99c for it, so no worries there. I've lately been using minimalistic text for the time/bat stat stuff and w&tw for the weather & toggles. After search around in the market and xda I see tons of peeps using BW. I see a few themes that I like in screen caps and such but am not entirely sure if I want to switch or not... (As once I use something it's rare I switch)
So am looking for opinions on the two, the who/what/where/when etc etc

So there's the current homescreen (am running stock unrooted epic, despite homescreen)
Epic is as Epic does

[Q] Dock4droid

I have been using dock for Droid and have rather liked it, asides from one thing. I am constantly pulling it up on accident while typing.
So, my question is this. In CM7 you can assign a custom app for long pressing the home key. Could I make this pull up the dock? I tried assigning it to the app, but that just opens the setting. I also did a logcat to see if it might list what is being ran, and maybe I could put that there...still no luck.
Anyone have a clue on what I need to do? I use launcherpro, and noticed you can make some pretty intense shortcuts with it...maybe something in there?
-Swyped on CM7
I dont know the answer to your problem but I cant really accidently pull it up with the settings changed a bit, you actually have to tap right on the area to make it popup.
I have mne set minimised to tiny and size at 10% and its a little small line less than a cm long.
Where the line is is the bottom of the screen, ive just blacked out below it so it can be seen easier.

Screenshot Issues

So I am having a little problem when trying to take screenshots. I wanted to takea screenshot of my quadrant score since i got a 3525, but whenever I try taking one, this is what I get as the picture:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This happens with both shootme, and drocap2. Any ideas?
The G2x has a built-in screenshot capability; you don't need an app (or to be rooted) in order to use it. Just press the "home" button and the power button together, and you'll get a .png in /sdcard/CapturedImages.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Oh that's pretty cool. Thanks!

VMWare View still good in ICS

the only thing i dont like is in the most recent update of the android app they added a 50 pixel bar at the top that totally wastes space. also the backwspace on the keyboard doesnt work wehn you press backspace on the dock keyboard
maybe its just because i have thumb keyboard set to my default intstead fo the asus defualt one.

the clipboard transfoers though. i uploaded that in the ics browser then copied the link from imgur and pasted it directly into the view app.
Why are you using a task killer, haven't people mentioned it enough?
The icon just hurts my eyes looking at it, just awful. You know where the problem is if your tablet starts acting up.
you could chose for ES task manager a bit more professional and a less trouble with freeze of tablet or mobile or with acting weird

Hide Navigation buttons? How

I never had the buttons stay on the screen all the time until just a few minutes ago. I was playing a game and they all of a suddenly popped up and now they won't go away. What did I do and how do I remove the buttons? I used to just swipe to pull up the bar and now it is there all the time.
Are you running stock or a custom rom?
Stock rooted using Franko kernel.

It's at the bottom of every app now. I was right in the middle of playing Dawn of Titans, which plays in widescreen, when the buttons appeared and stay there all the time.

Ahh Sadly I can't help you out. If you were running a custom rom, I probably could have helped. But I haven't ran stock rom on this phone for a long time. So I'm not actually sure about the settings that are different.
Most I could do to help is to tell you to look in your quick settings. Maybe there is an option like I have for expanded desktop.
