why is it there? how to get rid of it?
Don't think you can disable them.
Those are recommendations on what to search. They keep changing each few seconds for me. I don't find any inconvenience as if you type anything in the search bar the recommendation is replaced with what you type.

Ok, couldn't find an answer to this anywhere, but I hope I'm posting it in the right forum...
Basically, without removing the actual app, I want to be able to remove the icon for it from the app drawer...
I'm sure some of you have noticed, that when you download the key for some software, you end up with two icons - one for the key, and one for the program... honestly, it's just silly... how can I remove one of them...?
Anyone any ideas...?
Thanks!

You can do this with Adavanced Launcher.
I'm looking for info on how to get into modifying ROM's. I can do the basic stuff like replacing system apps, kernel, modem so far.
Looked at this thread but it wasn't that informative and apparent not entirely correct ether. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=885048
Things I'm looking for/to-do:
-List of apk's that are absolute necessary to have all ASOP functions work. OR a list of everything that can be removed and have all ASOP functions work.
-Change the time on MMS from received to sent.
-Change system settings defaults
-Faster pull down/up notification bar animation
Things I would like to do but not sure are possible (where should I look to try):
-Change functionality of button/button long press. ie. use google's gesture search when long pressing menu instead of default search.
-When using the "back" button to exit an app auto kill it. Do not kill/act normal if exiting app using "home" button.
-Remove app icons from notification bar that are running in foreground. ie. tasker
-Block apps from running on startup/in background. Yes I'm aware of autorun manager
-Disable lockscreen toggle, possibly add to lock screen chooser? yes I know there is the app no lock.
-If a text message fails to send keep retrying till it does send. (This really bothers me, my old "dumb" sony ericsson did exactly that)
I would like to minimize the use of apps that change functionality as much as possible and would like to make the modifications directly to the ROM.
Question, when using an apk that is modified like the themed black market apk, I assume it does not get updates through the market?
Is it possible to put widgets on the lock screen without the use of widget locker?
I'm guessing there are threads for these, if someone could point me to them I would appreciate it, if not I'll probably find them eventually
Accurate battery mod
Extended power menu options
Lock Screen Chooser
I plan on starting on already made roms from xda to start with.
I would greatly appreciate any info or direction.
Thanks
Did you happen to look at the sticky on "how to create ROMS" located at the top of this forum?
I did, and I did forget about it. It does help a bit, now I can decompile apk's.
Could someone point me to the file in the mms.apk that would contain the value to change the received to sent?
In general there is tons of files in the rom's and apk's, how does one go about locating the files that contain the info that one would like to change?

That's the fun part.
I use the blind squirrel method myself.
Sent from my Captivate.
lol, at 1,250 files for one apk..... how many blind squirrels does it take?
So far I've found something different between a "stock" mms.apk and a mms.apk that displays the sent time.
Code:
Stock mms.apk:
<string name="sent_on">%s</string>
Sent mms.apk:
<string name="sent_on">Sent: %s</string>
Though assume this just means one has the "sent" prefix and one doesn't...

i will agree with this....
I love the option to turn off the status bar while in full screen apps but I'm trying to find a way so I can enable or disable this feature directly from my home screen but so far I haven't seen the action anywhere.
Does anyone know how i can create either a shortcut to toggle it on and off or at least a shortcut that takes me to the screen with the option (it's under combined bar).
Thanks!
maybe anycut could do the job? it's on the play store ;-)
Sent from my MB525 with ICS - damn! that's hot <3
Thanks for the idea. It didn't have it specifically listed but if I could figure out the activity I'm assuming I could set thus up.
If anyone has any further ideas please let me know otherwise when I have some time I'll try to find it in the CM9 source.
Hi xda developers, some of you probably have the same question so for those of you who do listen up, I want to get rid of my softkeys on the Kindle Fire HD 7 and use LMT launcher instead. So to do this I edit my build.prop with qemu.he.mainkeys=1 telling the system not to show the softkeys. The problem with this is it gets rid of the app overflow bitten in the action bar. This wouldn't be a problem but the app overflow button didn't work on lmt launcher for some reason. So I have no way to access my app settings. How do I fix this? Anyone no?

Wrong forum, please post in the Q&A section. The stock Amazon software's navigation bar sticks no matter what, even if you eliminate the bar itself, it's like they partitioned the screen to have its own special navigation bar section.
This remains the only tweak on my device that I haven't found a solution for. There are several ways to remove the soft keys, but the gap where the bar once was remains. For some reason, it bugs the crap out of me having that gap, so I'm still using the soft key bar for now (even though I also have LMT installed). If someone finally comes up with a solution for this, please speak up. Is this something that can be remedied with CM? I currently am using Kinology.

OPs can't delete their own threads. I know, retarded.
I am coming from Nexus 6p and really liked holding the drawer icon to bring up the keyboard allowing me to search for the app I wanted. I can't seem to do that on the new launcher, any ideas?

Use the search bar. It includes apps when you type in it.

Not nearly the same, on the old launcher since it only filtered apps you didn't have to type nearly as much. Sometimes only one character. With the search bar I often find myself having to type almost the whole app name.
