Buttom bar - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
Do anyone know if it's possible to remove the Buttom pop-up bar.
I'd like to use WizzBar, but after installing Wizzbar, I now have the default one and Wizzbar poping up :-(

Sorry but no there is no way to remove it.

I am incorrect, I just noticed a new app.

How do you change the icons on this thing (task manager, calendar, world clock etc)? Surely it's configurable ....

That's terrible Are there any mods or anything to get rid of it, or force changes or something? That's pretty weird that they didn't just make it configurable. What's the thinking behind that?

I am just guessing but I don't believe the "mini" apps on the touchwiz taskbar are like regular apps. Regular apps can't be used in a multitasking way like the touchwiz "mini" apps on the taskbar, which is why you can't place your own apps there. I believe Samsung would have to develope more "mini" apps first.
If you get one of the android launchers from the market like launcher pro or adw ex, they each have docks that you can place your own apps on. On adw ex you can even have the dock rise up and disappear like touchwiz's taskbar.

The pop-up touch wiz/apps bar is just annoying I only ever use it for task manager I wish you could not have it and just have tas man as an app or widget. The bar only over pops up when I accidentaly press it when playing a game. It's totally rubbish since the apps are not configurable.
Samsung take it off and/or make it configurable it's the biggest bug bear I have with Samsung tabs.

I tried Go Launcher, but uninstalled it because the dock icons were off-center. Is that happening to you?
Yes but that's not bothering me. The font size in the app drawer is what's killing it for me.

I don't think you can change the font size. I've been trying to contact the devs about nook colour support but no luck.

Personally, the off center dock doesn't annoy me so much, but the large fonts in the app drawer do. All in all, however, it works very well.

with the new themes the off center dock is really starting to bug me. do people running nookie froyo also have this problem?
has anyone been able to get in contact with the devs? I tried but nothing...
no luck here. I've emailed and messaged them on twitter
Thats a shame... It was running good on the nook. But the visuals killed it. Oh well back to adw until they can support the nook.

Hey all, you do know that the center of the automated clock on home screen comes off to reveal other apps you can change at 3:00? Just hold do the 10 next to the 3:00 and the top flys off the the left!

Seems like a nice launcher, just wish the styling was different.
I wish there were more themes for this launcher and the ones that are out there didnt cost money. I think this is a great launcher but im not real keen on the theme.
There are many themes for this.

There are more themes in Google Play than in the built-in theme selector. Maybe that's what (s)he's seeing.
This launcher is cool, but it feels rushed in a few ways. For example, why can't I configure:
Where the MX (Cover screen?) button goes
Where the app drawer icon goes, or its icon (and why isn't it themed?)
The number of docks. I just want the one.
The task killer. I can already open it by long-pressing app drawer. Yet I can't move the dedicated task killer launcher (from dock 2).
The names and colors of the folders in the app drawer. No "Games"? And what is Lifestyle anyway?
The icons on the clock. Yes, I know I can change them, but to select Music, I have to have it launch the stock Blur music app? No thanks, I like the MIUI one, TYVM. Likewise with Contacts, I can't make it open Contapps. Gallery won't open QuickPic. You see where this is going.
The home screen indicator. I'm fine with it being there when I'm changing screens, but all the time? Not feeling it.
Other than that, it is a nice launcher. When placing icons, you get the grid from GO Launcher EX. Also from GO is the home screen configuration (press Home, this lets you add or remove home screens, or move them around). From GO and ADW it has a popup when long-pressing icons; other than being more visually impressive, it adds an Info option which takes you to its page in Settings/Applications (this is good if you want to force close the app, or maybe clear its cache, or remove its defaults).
The settings are also really bare and spread out amongst some confusing labels.
This app has a couple neat ideas. The app drawer and cover screen are nice touches, but the customization is very shallow. It feels like a beta, a work in progress. I'll keep it around because this thing is just dripping with potential.

Two Little Things

1 - Any way to remove the vibration notification? I like to have vibrate on all the time, but I'd like to remove that icon.
2 - How do you set a full wallpaper? Even the ones Samsung gives you can only be snipped. I'm currently on Go Launcher, and those wallpapers are full sized. Anyone know how to make all images full size?
Thanks in advance.
you have to have the proper resolution for the wallpaper the samsung ones wont strech because of it.

I don't think I'd want to do that. I just want to get rid of unneeded, persistent icons. Especially since so many apps stick things in there just to prevent from closing.
i too cannot stand that stupid vibration icon, i know its in vibrate, hy do i need an icon for it also

Exactly! I also just installed the awesome Badass Battery Monitor * and am really interested in a solution for hiding unneeded notification icons. I can't believe this doesn't exist.
* - "awesome" is my opinion, "Badass" is actually part of the app's name

Sorry but another guy having problem with notification item. Certain apps like GTA 3 will stay on my notification bar after exiting the game. I tried the clear button but it won't go away until I reboot my phone. Any alternate way to get rid of?
Errrrrrr sorry I couldn't resist my question when I saw notification question.

Creating homescreen shortcuts in trebuchet on cm10

I am trying to create a homescreen shortcut to the cm updater on stock cm10 trebuchet and failing miserably. Diss anybody have any ideas? Thanks.
Sent from my Apple IIe
I think in stock trebuchet u have to go into the app drawer and go to widgets and even though it's not a widget, u drag that to the home screen and it'll show up as a shortcut. Could be wrong though it's been a while since I've used it.
If the cm updater is an app then just hold it in the app drawer then drop it

I was trying to tell him that in trebuchet the shortcuts are under the widgets tab. If u go to widgets tab and drag the settings shortcut "widget" to your home screen it then gives u an option to choose where u want the shortcut to go. And then it's there. He may not have fully understood me.

I recommend delta updater. It only downloads a 50mb file but the flash is still good. It seems to replace files only. You could also add a shortcut with this as it is an app.

This is a very glaring omission that I hope they fix at some point. I have become accustomed to using elixir 2 shortcut widgets as opposed to a full blown widget to preserve battery life. Only using CPU time when clicking the shortcut to see my 7x3 widget. It is almost a deal breaker for me honestly.
Not sure why long pressing on the home screen brings up the wallpaper select menu anyway. Much more user friendly as well as useful to use the default Android action of long pressing allowing you to select what to add, including shortcuts. I add things way more often than I change a wallpaper, as I would think most others would to.
Edit: I figured out how to make the Elixir shortcut widgets work but still problems with all the other ones as the OP has said. I still think the home screen long press should be different, anything is better than changing wallpaper but would prefer the old implementation of bringing up what to add to the home.

I don't mean to sound like a prick. But they do all of this for free for us. Yes it would be nice to have different options, but that's why there is a play store with tons of different launchers available. To call it a glaring omission, is.... Kind of like asking for more when they've already given us a lot. Maybe in time they'll add what yer asking for. But we really do owe them a lot of thanks, so let's just be happy with what we've got. Like I said, not trying to be a prick. Just saying.

I do appreciate what they do and really love the CM mods. Have been using them since the first one that came to the OG Evo. I understand that they are doing this for free and for that I do greatly appreciate it. I didn't mean for it to come off as demanding or that they owed us anything. I admit I could have worded it much better, but I honestly meant it as a request for something I feel should be added at some point. It is a small addition(I don't mean small to code, as I have no idea how much work it would take) that would add a lot in return in respect to intuitiveness.
I also understand that these are beta's(alpha's even possibly?) and not all features are yet integrated in or been tested. Take this as a humble request for the shortcuts to be changed/fixed at some point before going final. Request also for the long press on homescreen action to be changed to something more used, such as the default menu for adding apps/shortcuts/widgets for the screen.
Yeah, I didn't want to start anything. I was just wondering if I was overlooking anything simple. Cyanogenmod all the things!

I don't think apps do that...that's more of an operating system thing...unless you search for some launchers on the Google play market....but don't forget to also download a launcher/home switcher if you want to use the previous launcher back again
but if you really want customizable features..you may need to get a custom ROM. thus rooting may be compulsory during the procedure

not sure what you mean by "default icon placement system" do you mean icons on the home screens?? if yes then I think you may have to re add them... have you heard of Go Launcher??? very famous..go see it in action maybe on YouTube if available....I think it's one of the most customizable and supports themes too
