It's the "downloads" app in your appwindow. Just drag it to the home screen and you're done. It's not a very useful app though, so why bother. You cannot lose it because it is a system app, so unless you mess around in a rooted tablet it should be there...

I've just moved over from the TytnII - and i am feeling button deprived. I'm looking for an app that will allow me to launch a few specific apps (Phone & Calendar & camera being most immediate) without all this scrollling around panes on the Nexus UI and hunting for the icon. I used AEButton+ under WinMo.
any suggestions ?
Personally, I place all my icons that I quick access in the center screen (#3). Then, my widgets and less used icons go out to the sides. I know how you feel though, as it actually caught me by surprise the first time I went to make a call and there was no call button.
Install Home++ or Launcher+ from the market.

No kidding, I was playing with the phone the first day texting/emailing/etc. Then I had to call someone, I was like....um...what do i do.
lol
Found a solution!..
ScreenSlide from the market. Beautiful launcher/app that restructures how you use the home completely. I really like it.. took me all of 5 mins to decide to register the paid for app

Or you could just drag what you want onto your screens?

I want my screen to look like android, not winmo.
Until screenslide supports widgets, it's a downgrade from stock android.

Did you try Home++ free from market?

No. I really don't have a problem with the current launcher.
Edit. So, I tried both Launcher++ and Home++. Launcher++ kinda sucked. Nothing special. Home++ on the other hand is effin' awesome! So flippin' smooth, I get to keep the "Android look" but also expand upon it a little bit. Still playing with it, as I haven't yet figured out how to customize it yet. Just wish it supported live wallpapers. I like the "light cycle" one. :-D
On my captivate there are four apps on the bottom of all home screens: Phone, Email, Browser, and Apps.
Any way I can change it? It doesnt seem to be accessible/customizable.
I havent found a way yet either....so doesn't seem possible.

Yep, I figured it out. Follow this:
1. From the Home screen select "Applications"
2. Menu> View Type> Customizable Grid
3. Menu> Edit
You can now slide any App down to the bottom dock. You can even change it back to "Alphabetical Grid" and it will still save the Apps on the dock.
thank you sir!

Is anyone having success with Launcher Pro replacing touchwhiz?
I really prefer launcher pro over touchwiz. Are you asking how to change the buttons on the dock in launcher pro? If so, just hold down one of the little +'s until the menu opens up and go from there.
on a related note, is there a way to remove the different pre-loaded AT&T applications from the phone? there are a number that seem useless given other apps out there that do the same thing but better, but i can´t seem to figure out how to delete them.
keep your finger on the icon you want to move a second longer than normal (if you have your phone on vibrate, it will buzz) then you can move them around the screen as many or as much as you like. You can also drag them into a bin which will appear in the bottom of the screen. This action doesn't delete the app or icon, it just reappears in the apps page. Very easy but took me ages to work it out. So simple. Have fun
I tried searching in different forums and Google but I was unable to find this.
My question is ..is it possible to put "any" widget into the notificatily bar I'm really looking to put the "Elixir" widget into the notification bar
No! However, there was an app in the market that allowed you to have a hidden screen. I cant recall what the app was named but basicly you could say hold down the home button and the screen similar to just a blank screen would pop up. You could put widgets and other things on the screen. Seriously though the app seemed kind of usless considering you already have how many other screens lol.

I believe that you are referring to the QuickDesk application. It is very handy =D

Hi I am trying to retrieve a photo that has been saved as a wallpaper on my gfs Samsung Galaxy gt 15500.
When the photo was taken it was saved to the sd card but as some stage the sd card got corrupted and as far as I know she got rid of it.
She needs a new phone but refuses to do so without the picture (its very personal and cannot be recreated). Is there anyway of getting it?. I have rooted the phone and when into data via AstroFileManager but I cant find it anywhere.
I have also tried Wallpaper Set & Save but it is not compatible with 2.2.
Any help is appreciated as my life wont be worth living if I cant get the pic
Thanks
I have an idea
Use go launcher, hide the dock, hide all icons, hide the status bar and then take a screenshot!!!!

Thank you so much QuantumFoam.
Ill try it out later on her phone. If all goes well it means I have that important picture for her and I get a new phone to play around with.
I rooted it, updated the firmware and flashed a new kernel already and the thing is flying........let the flashing of the rom commence!!!

Big thumbs down on that.
Downloaded and installed go launcher ex. It immediately changed the background to some stock picture of the sky.
I changed back to my original launcher and the picture that I was trying to save is gone. This is not good.
The photo still remains as a contact pic, but yet again I cannot find anywhere its saved. Its as if its in a cache somewhere.
Does anybody have any ideas? (I didnt want to get into detail but the picture is of somebody who passed away and is very important to my gf)
You didn't mention that it's as a contact pic
There's a way to see your contacts on Google
Open Google on your computer, go to the more tab and click Even more. There should be contacts there
Yet another thing VZW decided we did not need,
this will give you the option for EasyMode under the settings/ Personalize / Home Screen.
once on your new homescreen you can swipe left or right, left for quick contacts, and right to add quick apps.
just flash in recovery and enjoy

No but it did remove the icon from the dock and I had to put it back from the app drawer. It also seemed to disable the green notification on the messaging icon when a message arrives . I loaded it just to see what it was like, won't be going back on after next flash.
