Forgive me if this was already posted but I was playing around in the task manager and went to default tab and cleared the setting. After you do that go to your notification drop down and select setting and it will ask which settings program you want to use. Choose the one without the folder behind it.

I believe if you go into settings and hit the menu button, you will have the option to switch into list view. Also, there are two "settings" in your app drawer. One is for the tabs, one is for list.

I actually didn't know this could changed at all. Thanks to both of you. I personally prefer the list view.
Well, now that we're doing things the easy way, anyone know how to get the battery usage screen with the graph at the bottom that shows wifi on, awake, screen on, etc? I've only been able to see it when I get the low battery warning, which isn't very often with this phone.

On stock ics. If screen turns on while charging it does not turn off again. This started happening some weeks ago, but I can't imagine I did anything.
Any clues?

Yes! What is the problem? Just a setting in EC or uninstallation required?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Here's the deal:
The "keep awake"option is part of the stock ics settings but Samsung has removed it, possibly to avoid burn-in effects on the s2's SAMOLED screen. But apparently all they removed was just the option...the"stay awake"functionality is still there, you just don't have a way to enable or disable it.
This means that if you install an app that for whatever reason decides to turn "stay awake" to "on" you have no way to disable it -unless you install a third party app that does exactly that!
Enter extended controls. While I'm almost sure it was THAT update that caused the stay awake setting to change we are in luck because it's the same app that will let us disable it:
On an empty area of your screen long press and add an 1x1 extended control widget. Add the "stay awake" toggle and apply. when the widget appears I'm pretty sure it's gonna be enabled/green.
Click on the widget to disable stay awake and then remove the widget if you want. Done.
Let me know how it works out!

Honestly I looked into a few of those recommendations but I chose Tasker with the plug in Secure Settings.
Now I can choose to wake up my screen on any notification for a defined amount of time before it turns off automatically.
Tasker is a very powerful system app. So if you haven't tried it, I highly recommend it. It's a paid app ($6.95) but very worth it. If your skeptical go to the developer's website for a trial.

This might be a stupid question but do you think you can take a pic or maybe use your phone while browsing and hope that you can video record it with some other camera and capture that grayish dot. It could be that you have a security software installed and everytime you browse it scans the website you're on. I could be wrong.
For me, when i view a pic on reddit sync, it shows up. I think it just is a way to declutter the notification bar, cause if you click it, it shows all the icons anyway. Any more info as to what you're doing when it happens?
