[Q] Folder on "drawer" disapears after station un-dock. - Asus Padfone X and S

Hello (XDA Padfone X) world.
First, just got mine and L-O-V-E IT! Talking and texting while redditing in bed on a tablet is the coolest.
I made a folder on the bottom of the screen in what I would call the "drawer". This folder includes my flashlight app and the android settings app. It seems every time disconnect the phone from the base dock station, the folder is gone.
What the what!?
UPDATE-
The folder is actually disappearing before I put the phone into the station. I set the folder up and used the (native) Settings app then shortly after that noticed the folder was gone.

OK, is this folder on both the phone and the station? The phone and station do not share the same home screen. You can even have separate wallpapers for each. You need to set up the folder on both.

Ok, this folder is on the phone only and was disappearing from the phone.
BUT...
I have "fixed: it. I was adding the flashlight app first then the settings app. I reversed the process and added the settings shortcut to the drawer and then put the flashlight app on top of it and this seems to be working.
Yay me!

Can't put a file on desktop

I know that i am probally missing something simple but -
On a S3 how do i put a Excel file on a screen?
It won't let you right click and copy and paste. However, if you select the file and hot control+c the go to desktop and hit control+v it should work

I think he's referring to putting it on the home screen of his GS3....correct?
Yeah
this may or may not work. Also there may be an easier way. I downloaded Astro file manager from Google Store (free app)
Went to home screen, long press and select Short Cuts (I use Nova launcher)
Then selected Astro from the menu
Astro should open and you should be able to browse to the file you want. I didnt have an excel or document to use. I just tested it with a ringtone and it added the ringtone to home screen

So in the Play Store app, in settings, you UNchecked the option "Auto-add shortcuts"? I ask, because you said you unchecked "create shortcut", but I don't have that option with that exact name on my phone...
is it the same app creating shortcuts or all the apps you [email protected]?
if it is one app, if it creats shortcut everytime you run it, it is created by application. If it creates sjortcut everytime you downloaded and inatalled it, it is created by play market.
are you using touch wiz home or 3rd party home app?if it is 3rd party home and was told no room on screen while actually you have, there may be some incompatibily and you can try other home app or report the issue to developer.

{MOD} car dock mode without dock

Using the app QuickShortcutMaker, you can search for “car” and then create a shortcut on your home screen,
it will put a shortcut of car app that is hidden in app menu on the home screen.
Is there a way to edit what is shown on the app? Personally I don't want the Amazon mp3 crap on mine. I prefer Pandora or slacker.

[Q] Move Live Wallpaper to new phone?

Just got the Note 2. My last phone was the HTC Rezound. I loved the live wallpaper that were available, especially one called slide show. This allowed my home screen to cycle through photos, so my homescreen changed backgrounds automatically from the album I picked. It shows up as com.htc.android.image_wallpaper with TiBu on Rezound. Tried to restore it to the Note 2 but didn't work.
Anyone know if it is possible and can I just copy those two files to move the Live wallpapers from my old phone and make it available on my new Note 2?
TIA.

Thanks. The guy on the video has a very deep accent. I had to replay it like 5 times, but picked up a few words on name of the app and searched it. FX photo Live wallpaper. Not exactly what I wanted but an alternative.

"Settings Shortcut" widget

I'm wondering where the settings shortcut widget is. I used to use it all the time on my Note 2, and Google searches aren't helping. Does this not exist anymore? =(

I don't have a widget for it. But there is a shortcut under apps that you could drag to the desktop. It's in one of the folders I forget which (maybe the sprint or samsung ones) as I've moved a bunch of things around on my phone.
However I am completely stock still and definitely have the shortcut in my app drawer.

So did they take that feature off? I really like being able to access the Bluetooth and WiFi setting by clicking on an icon (made by settings widget).
