Hello Everyone,
I have seen a few posts asking for a way to disable the "Recommended shortcuts (Earphones)" pop up that comes on the Galaxy S4. This will work on all carriers and it is very simple just follow these steps:
1.Go To Settings
2.Click More
3.Select Application Manager
4.Scroll To All
5.Search for "PageBuddyNotiSvc"
Note: Do Not Disable this Service
6.Uncheck the "Show Notifications" box
Reboot and your done!
Ive uninstalled it no problems here
Thanks, this has really been annoying me and have wanted to get rid of it
Thank you so much. It was annoying
Mine only suggested galleries and browsers lol
Thanks a million, that was really irritating!

Ran into the issue where the lockscreen shortcut wasn't showing the Phone in the list. It was kind of pissing me off, so I made a simple app that will simply launch the Phone app. That's it. It's just a shortcut essentially.
Install as a regular APK.
I've named it "Phone" in the app drawer and gave it the same icon (as seen in screenshots below). I can rename it to like Dialer or something if you guys prefer to be able to distinguish it, but I'm sure this will do the trick for the majority who have this issue.
Works great thanks! It was pissing me off too after flashing ROMs it would dissappear
Thanks

Would the market app: Any Cut work also?

How do you install this on your sensation? I tried clicking the link and installing as a regular apk as I normally would and it says the content is not supported on the phone. No application can be found to open this file. I even tried scanning the QR Code and it doesn't seem to work as well. Any suggestions? I appreciate your help as I am a noob on here.

Install astro and look in options, there should be a setting to enable all downloads from the internet.
Man, thanks so much for this APK. Just ran into this issue myself, and your solution worked out perfectly.
Any help for this issue? Got a "The application DialerShortcut (process com.roman.dialershortcut) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. This happens everytime I try to press on the shortcut. Additionally, on my home screen, everytime I try to press "Phone" at the bottom of the screen, nothing pops up...

Thanks beyond a million for the apk!! As a company, why the hell would they remove the damn dialer shortcut!?!?!
this worked for my HTC sensation, I really appreciate you creating this app, thank you.
Hi Roman,
Do you mind sharing this piece of source code? I am newbie and want to create a shortcut to other applications in the draws. Thanks.
Everything is in the tilte. I'm running ICS with the ROM BlindIce v12, and Apex launcher.
I saw that new apps have automatically a shortcut on launcher, and i want to disable it. I okked in every parameters, but maybe I missed something.
Thank for your help.

have you checked play store app settings?
there's an option there called 'add widget automatically' (or sth like this )
Seems not to work with jelly bean. Short cuts still comes
Sent from my Desire S using xda app-developers app
This may just be a behaviour of Jelly-Bean. I spent today playing with a Nexus 7 and it does exactly the same thing; any new app I install automatically puts an icon on the launcher screen for me.
I didn't see any option to disable this, but didn't look particularly closely I have to admit.

Well I was playing around with my new galaxy s3 today and I went to got use the internet app and I accidentally deleted the app from the home screen. I looked in the app drawer and its no where to be found. Can someone please help me.
I'm thinking it would be hard to permanently delete the browser, but I think I know how to help you.... by default the S3 is not sorting apps in your app drawer alphabetically and it makes things impossible to find. Go into the app drawer, hit the menu button, press View Type, and change it to alphabetical grid or alphabetical list, whichever you prefer, and you should be able to find it. You can also change apps on the bottom bar of the homescreen by long pressing then dragging them in and out/to the trash. Good luck and enjoy your S3... it's an awesome phone!

hi
i've used your nice application before . but it had a big problem which sometimes you couldent install software or checkmark some options and the only way was to disable control panel . i hope u would figure it out thank you
As title, I'm running 5.02 (Netherlands) on a P900. Everything is pretty good and I can switch on toolbox but if I actually select toolbox then settings crashes. Any ideas?
EDIT: Did a data wipe and that fixed it. Wiping the cache did not sadly.

Same thing happened to me, after going to the notification panel and switching it on from there, it stopped freezing and is working like normal

Same problem with my US version and 5.02. I did a Wipe Cache and that didn't solve it. Also, I don't have the tool from the notification panel, just in the Settings. I am not ready to factory reset.

Try just turning it on, then let it force close, hold the toolbox, then go up to edit, then it should work from there

1. Turn it ON
2. Press and HOLD and drag it UP to edit
3. You will find a list of apps. Choose 5 favorites
4. Click DONE.
5. Go back to the settings, and you will see it active

Thank you. I can confirm that it works now.
I think it's the initial set up that's causing it to crash. Once you have one app on the toolbox, setting no longer crashes when pressing toolbox.

Well, I did figure it out in the original post
Looks like we have a way that doesn't involve a data wipe now though, so that's better
Thanks, this worked.

Wish I would have read this before I did a hard reset
Oh, that's what those 3 dots are!
Thanks, Yoshi! I've been trying to figure out what those 3 Dots were once my Note Pro "downgraded" to 5.02.
I'm having crashes with Toolbox as well. Once I followed your instructions, the 3-dot icon had the apps I picked. Then I realized this was "Toolbox". Of course, a little documentation about what was being changed by version 5.02 would have been a great help. But it seems like it costs too much nowadays to create documents along with hardware/software.
But why would I need Toolbox when I've been using Slider Launcher app for a few months to do the same thing? And Slider doesn't have the 5 app restriction of Toolbox as well.
Now if I can only get my Logitech Pro keyboard and the Samsung keyboard to work like they did under 4.4, and the S-Note widget to show all my notes ... well, here's hoping 5.03 will be soon coming and enhance my tablet instead of degrade it.
