hi i new to this but when i got my phone second hand someone had already put a different rom on it (kumars). its cool and i like it but today something strange happened. I am now missing a couple of icons such as if you hit start there was a padlock icon to lock the screen. it is now gone but you can still press the area and it will lock. secondly, when you press the call button to go into the make call menu, the "menu" icon is gone. you press the area and it works. strangly enough, when you press the area the "close" icon will appear

Been having fun with 6.5 after getting it loaded up, the home screen is great. I kind of think the start menu has something to be desired, big icons that scroll up and down. Well got me thinking, is there a plug-in out there, for the home screen that when flicked right or left, would move the whole "main" home menu off screen and bring up a new menu(slides in from the approate direction?). Run up and down with in that new menu, then flick again (right or left) and get yet another new menu, all of these additional menu sets either preset or set up by the user. To get back to the home screen, maybe a soft Home key or just wait a few seconds and the software shifts back to Home?
Something to ponder, talk amongst your selves.

Thats a great idea, although not really suited for me and it would be extremely annoying to an extent. Because when you scroll with your thumb up/down you move slightly to the left or right.. that would trigger it and annoy most if not all people.
I'm sure a range of some kind could be set up that would recognize what's meant to be up-down Vs. left-right. Already see it with most of the fields on the home screen. I just saw it as a way to keep the start menu programs "in theme" while not extending the home screen to some crazy length.
i was thinking the same thing.. for the start menu i think it can be done since ifonz and iphone today are similar to this type of a menu. It would be pretty useful or another option would be to get rid of the bouncy option and instead when u scroll the other way, it should show the icons from the bottom of the list.
what do u think?
well when I use opera for a while it seems that the border just disappears (back favorites tabs home options) does anyone know why that is ? can it be running out of memory?
It just disappears so that you can see the whole screen and view it, if you want to get it back all you have to do is hit the little button at the bottom right.
It gets annoying at times, no idea if there is a way to keep the border and buttons up.
Just go to the settings menu, choose display and then uncheck "Automatic full screen"
right I knew that much but what I ment was the button disappears and I cant click anything. if I click physical back button it will go back a screen but the border still remains hiddenand three area where the refresh button is is black. any ideas?
Hi everyone! As the title says, for some strange reason this morning my 'Home' button won't work from any application, the button however does make the screen light up and the buttons light up, but does not take you back to the home screen... also, when at the home screen, the dial button would usually bring the contacts or the dialer page up, but this is not working either, however, if I go into the contacts shortcut on the home screen and select a contact and press the dial button there, it will call them...
so basically, my main issue is the Home button not working!
Its not rooted *yet* and is therefore running a standard rom, it does have a fair few apps installed tho, but I have used the advanced task manager to close everything... I'm v' new to all this Android stuff as up until a few months ago, I was a Windows Mobile person with my previous SPV's and HTC's so any help would be greatly appriciated!
Thanks, Adam.
Hi
Stupid problem!
Bought my daughter a ZTE Blade 3. Stock ROM from Virgin UK.
Somehow she has dropped an icon over the "all apps" icon in the bottom row of icons on the home screen.
All fixes I can find involve a long press on the home screen and a menu coming up with a menu that includes shortcuts or something similar. However the menu that comes up doesnt have anything relevant!
Any ideas?
Cheers
Rob
hello , this is my first post, so i apologize if this has been already asked. i have just purchased a basic android system and am unable to add/remove items to the home screen menu on the default launcher. i have tried pressing an holding the menu item, but no options appear to remove the item, i have tried pressing and holding a blank area of the home screen and still no options appear. i cannot hold and drag to rearrange the order of the current items in the home screen. the home screen appears locked when i drag app's onto the home screen i get the message "no more room on this home screen".
has any one seen this launcher before that could please advise me of know of a similar launcher i could install.. Cheers in advance.
