Task.Killer - Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE

I have Advanced Task Killer on the Inc 4G. Is there even a point in having it on this phone? I notice there aren't as many apps to close.

ill unhide it from settings (and camcorder too cuz i like having that as a shortcut)

Can I add one to that? The default movie player is combined with the gallery. Is it possible to separate that as well?

Deleted app.forgot its name

I ment to delete the app next to it..and I clicked the wrong app...
And for the life of me i can't remember its name!
All it did was when you clicked it, it gave you a list..top I remember was end all task,a few down it had a favorite apps...
I believe it started with an A but I can't remember.

Hard to say. Worse case scenario flash back to stock and then reroot. Download rom manager and flash recovery and then you can backup your current rom and everything on it that way if you make a mistake moving forward you can always revert back instead of starting over. I learned that lesson the same way you did.
What did the app do? Do you remember that at least?
Sounds like a task manager.
maybe advanced task killer
It was similar to a task manager but that was not its main focus ..bah oh well I guess... If i remember the name I'll let you all know, its an amazing app.

when you opened the app.. a box/rectangle that was almost the same size as the screen would pop up but you could still see the background of either the app drawer or what ever screen you had the app on, in the box it would be a list of actions that the app could do, such as end all tasks... there was one that said favorite apps that you could put all your fav apps in instead of having your desktop flooded with apps. those are the only ones i remember, they are the only ones i ever used.
i found it just a few days ago... i saw a review or somthing that made mention of the app and i was all ehh ill check it out and i loved it! ugh its driving me insane now that i cant remember it..
Was it jkAppSwitch by any chance?
Maybe android mate...

Smart Bar. Also allows for you to kill mobile data, amongst many others, with a quick settings toggle. I am positive that that's your app.

Well, I just did that..thing is, while it was blank I changed it to a diff app thinking it would switch back when I changed the screen. After the last update, I still have the other app I selected. My phone is still gone!
For me, i can still select phone for my lockscreen shortcuts, but its not in my app drawer. Should it be this way?
Seems like a PICNIC error to me.
I have the same issue. I did ALL the updates and my phone app is still missing,and yes I have been reading all the forums/blogs.

So for clarity, you have the phone shortcut available for lockscreen, but not in app drawer?
Go in to the settings where you can change which apps show. Select a different one then chose the phone again and it will show.

Cool thanks for that. It doesn't matter since the main sense button is phone anyway. I downloaded adw ex to see if the phone icon would show up in that app drawer and it did, so i imagine its just not supposed to be in the sense app drawer to avoid redundancy.

I think it's this...
I haven't done a single update and the phone isn't in my app drawer. I removed it from my lockscreen in favor of the flashlight (which, among other important things..htc didn't include).
I am having a few issues and since it looks like root is out of the question unless HTC miraculously keeps their promise .. I may just do all the OTAs.

You might as well, when root is found, or when HTC unlocks it, there will have been several more OTA's to worry about. Just enjoy the fixes for now. Just my input.

Yea you're right. If we ever do get root, it isn't gonna be anytime soon. I may as well get this thing as functional as possible.
I fixed the app missing by doing a reset. I was all up to date but the update didn't go into effext until I did a reset.
Sent from my 3vo
So I have done all the updates and today I did a hard reset on my phone. The phone icon was on my lockscreen until I changed some of the other icons. It is no longer there and I cannot select it either.
I am wondering if the small updates stick after a hard reset? I went to check for any updates and it says none available. Is there anyway to install the small updates manually from somewhere?
Edit....Just an FYI after I kept checking for updates, eventually the small app updates was available and now I got my phone icon back. So anyone who hard resets their device after the updates, make sure you keep checking for the small app update because it does not stick after a hard reset and it did not auto prompt me to do so either.

[APP] Power Saver Mode Shortcut

This started with the update to Gingerbread on the Evo 4G. The power management settings were hidden from view unless you knew how to find them so I made an app that granted access to those settings on the Evo. I know that the Evo 3D has is listed in the settings menu, but there's no app drawer widget for it so I installed it on my 3D so I could easily access it from my homescreen. I'm just posting it here for those that might want to use it. It's a small app at 13kb and only sends out an intent for the power saving settings then finish() so it takes no memory outside opening those settings. Feel free to use anyway you want.
Thanks imma try it

Let me know if you have any problems. I may change the icon to match the power settings one. The only difference is the bolt in the middle.

Would anyone use a widget to turn this off and on? If it is possible I may make one if there is enough interest.

HTC Sense app drawer

Hey guys, I was wondering if it was possible to add more categories to the sense 3.0 app drawer.
I'm not sure if categories is the right word, but basically, when you open up the app drawer, at the really bottom there's a slider and icons for switching from all apps to frequent and to download.
Thanks!
I have to say I'm curious too, I'm sure there is a way to, since you can rearrange the "categories" when you longpress on them, and there's more space too (it looks like to add more) so Im almost certain there's a way...just haven't found it yet

Yea, that's what I figured too. They leave the space for it, but I can't figure it out!
Also, when you longpress stuff, it tells you you can drag to remove categories, but all of the stock ones aren't removable
Sent from my PG86100
Yea its a simple mod
But is there a way, to create any additional categories there? Like games, utilities and so on? having all the apps together without even being to organize them the way I want is very messy for me.

Lock screen shortcuts are gone.

Lost my lock screen shortcuts and can't get them back. Box is checked in "personalize" settings. Any ideas?

Try changing an icon in your dock.

Are you completely stock, or have you changed ROMs/kernals/themes?

Hmmm. Here's what I would try next, just for the hell of it: remove all of your icons from your dock and from your main home screen. Change your wallpaper to something else stock. Reboot. Put one normal, everyday (like the phone dialer or people, etc) icon/shortcut - not a widget - in your dock. Reboot. Check lockscreen. See your shortcut?
HTH!
Try going to personalize under settings and go to lock screen. There should be options for different lock screen options.

What did you install before this happened? You said you are stock, but are you rooted? Delete anything? This wouldn't just disappear without either clicking that setting off, or deleting something you shouldn't have.
I know you said stock... but did you install a different launch.. ie Nova, Apex... etc. and stop/freeze sense. When i did that i lost the lockscreen apps. Kinda sucks but sense needs to be running to have those, regardless of using it or not.... Good luck

You're right man, switched to sense and they came back. Thanks, just have to decide if it's worth it now, really like nova. Thanks a million.

Lockscreen shortcuts are the icons in the sense dock. Even if you are running nova it will pull them from the sense dock.

Yeah keep nova installed and just make sure sense is running... A little waste of memory, but with 2gb you'll never notice.

The only thing that sucks is that too change the shortcuts i have to enable sense to change them. Then switch back to nova.

With this you can remove Rosie and still have the shortcuts I think.

Don't disable Sense. As far as enabling it to change the dock, just go into Nova settings and use the "Default launcher" button towards the bottom. Go to Sense, "Just Once" and set your dock. Hit the Home button and click Nova, "Always". Done.
same prob with htc one
i installed xposer installer and sense 5 tool box and everything was fine. but the next day i decided to re install my ARHD Rom to get rid of the mods had done before and then, my lockscreen apps were gone and widgets on lockscreen are not working...

I think you're in the wrong forum, the Droid DNA doesn't have an ARHD rom.
