I have previously installed SlimKat 4.4.4 and more recently installed Slim 7.1
4.4.4 had a home screen only and no "drawer" (is that what it's called?)
(((The button with 6 dots that brings me to a list of all apps.)))
and 7.1 has a drawer.
Is there some way for me to get rid of the drawer on 7.1 and have only a single (or multi page) home screen?
I am going for a minimalist google-free phone and am using F-droid for now.
Would you suggest any additional stores?
Was upgrading from 4.4.4 to 7.1 a good idea?
Is 7.1 more secure and safe?
Thanks

After posting a thread with a question and your provided with or even if you were able to locate a more appropriate thread for any questions that you may have (and even just locating the answer to your question) there's nothing wrong with reporting the thread to a Moderator just to simply close it.
The following steps are the best way to have a thread closed by a Moderator (and they prefer to be asked by the specific member who opened the thread... that's you).
{FYI... The Moderators prefer not to delete a thread unless it's necessary to do so. Closing a thread keeps the information available for other members to learn from it as well.}
1) On the first post, select the bottom left triangle (reporting a post).
2) When the next page loads, select the reason on drop down section (at the bottom left of the text area), then select the one that states "Thread/post moving or maintenance".
3) If it's because your question was simply answered, then type the reason within the text area. Something simple like "Can you please close this thread because my posted question has been answered." (you can also tell them that "Ibuprophen is awesome" LOL!).
4) Finally, select the "Send report" and you'll then be taken back to the thread. Your all set!
The report is then listed on cue for a Moderator. It typically takes anywhere from 10 min to a day or two. The Moderators are very good and are pretty much on top of things.
Reporting a thread isn't intended as a bad thing. It just elevates having to send call-outs and PM's to a bunch of Moderators till one is available.
You've now graduated from the "Closing a thread 101" course! LMAO!!!
Good Luck!

Hello all...
I posted before but can't seem to find the post now. I have prime and love the launcher with my Note 4. After the recent update I cannot figure out how to place app icons on different pages. Can someone please explain step by step the new process?
Your original post can be found in the link below.

This forum is for people to post apps & games. It is not a Q&A forum.
Hint: If you click on your user name, then click on "Statistics", you will see a link to find all threads started by yourself. You can also do this via the XDA app by going to your profile, then selecting the option from the dropdown menu to find threads you've started. When a thread is moved by the moderating team, you will also receive a PM telling you that the thread has been moved.
Thread closed.
I wrote a looong "blog" regarding my experiences with Android as desktop replacement. But I can't post it. XDA says the post has been "flagged". Flagged is unclear to me.
Obviously I can post. Is there a character limitation? Have I used some bad word?
Hello and welcome on XDA,
as a new member you are able to create threads but not in every section. Some sections, like development section, are blocked for threads by newbies.
I would suggest you to answer some Questions here on XDA to get 10 posts. After you have 10 posts, you are able to post everywhere. I would suggest you not yo spam. Only answer if you have a serious answer.
Where do you tried to post your thread?
Kind regards

Hello,
Thank you.
I was able to post before in the rom section (don't ask me exactly where ). By now I got already 22 posts.
I also tried to post my text here to Q&A but failed to do so. Instead I posted this question which obviously worked. My original intend was to post the the General section, in there in the general section. Topics that fit all devices but don't fit elsewhere.
I wanted to share my good and bad experiences with using my mobile as desktop PC.
Answering my own question here:
XDA seems to have acharacter count limit. I splitted my post into three sections and everything worked fine.
I could use the "ebay" term as well as write something in korean.
And by the way... using the xda app writing is easy but upon trying to post that long post exactly nothing happens. no error, just no reaction :/

As far as I know, you can only edit a thread, not delete it. You could try reporting your thread's original post and ask if they can delete the thread.

@coockedcow Welcome to XDA! I hope you'll always get the support you require.
A user is not able to delete a thread or a post; you can only edit your posts. Likewise you are not able to close/lock a thread, this also requires a moderator. If you like one of your posts deleted or one of your threads close, please notify the moderators team via the report function. I've by the way moved this thread from forum "Samsung Galaxy A51 Guides, News, & Discussion" as your thread was not related to that device.
Please be also aware that we generally don't delete threads but only close them in order to avoid HTTP 404 errors after search engines have indexed XDA. Such errors provide a poor user experience that we want to avoid. The only exceptions to this rule are spams and duplicate threads; however, latter ones only immediately after they were created.
You might find much more useful information in this excellent guide by our RC @sd_shadow:

I have a Samsung A03s and in the kmsg.log kept mentioning [275: teegris rpmb] TZDEV ERR tz_iwio_alloc_iw_channel(175): IW buffer registration failed, error=-111 and [275: teegris rpmb] TZDEV ERR tz_iwsock_connect(619): Failed to connect socket root_task, error=-111 and I decided to check them out. After doing some Google searches I discovered the Teegris got hacked by a USB charger. I got curious about my N20 because I used the same charger on my phone. I checked the sockets on my Nord N20 5G and I honestly don't know what I'm looking at. I'm hoping someone could help me understand and let me know if this is normal or if I should be concerned.
I sent an email to OnePlus and I was told to reset the wifi, mobile, and Bluetooth in the settings and nothing really changed other than the ports and I-Nodes that were connected. I'll post the Samsung and both OnePlus files.

I had used one of the recommended official roms to revert from pixelexperience back to oxygenOS, but somewhere along the line, my boot/recovery images were destroyed and now I am unable to fix it at all. I have a gm1911 model, and am currently unable to see my phone in the adb devices list, but can use fastboot. I do not have any recovery apps installed, and have at this point tried multiple different tutorials, none of which helped. would HIGHLY appreciate any help given. I created an account on here specifically for this so I am unsure if this post is in the right place, please let me know if it isn't.
