How 2 turn off the home jumper thing on the bottom screen?

When I'm flipping left and right on my home/widget screens this short cut/jump to screen pops up on the bottom. I can't figure out how to disable it!! I try to go into my drawer/all app list and end up jumping to another home screen. Please help

You could just use a different launcher? I've moved to ADW Launcher and I'm loving it so far. Lots of options/tweaks.
Drop blur & just use an alternative home launcher such as adw or launcher pro.

Just downloaded new launcher. Good info thanks y'all.

I use launcher pro (plus) the beta version is free, basically i turn off homescreen rotation (like it is in moto, which i agree with i'm only gonna hold the homescreen one way)
and i enable 5 rows in the homescreen Gives so much more room to have widgets. as well as icons, it looks kinda messed up if you go landscape homescreen.
It just makes sense to me and wish more wide phones (which is about all the new phones now) should come like that

Setting one icon in the center?

My phone really only consists of 3 screens and I only use one icon for everything, which I have on my main home screen. Is there any way to place that icon in the center?
Since our phones only have space for four icons across, its kinda hard to place that in the center. I'm using launcherProPlus

Pretty sure you can change the amount of columns and rows using launcher pro. You can also resize icons using lpp as well

Tried to use launcherpro, but no such luck

launcherpro 5x5
install with long press NOT add button (lets you choose icon)
should work
if not, do a 5x5, use a clear icon and either just "know' its there, or choose wallpaper that has an "icon like" look in the middle - trial and error to line up "invisible" icon to wallpaper
hint - use non scrolling wallpaper option
hope that helps
ps - i'm pretty new to this so there may be a better way - but this way does work

Are you using a custom launcher, or alternative messaging app?
ADW and reg built in messaging app comes with bubble style

Turn off the ADW notifications in the settings, and uninstall any notification apps you might have installed, like ADW unread count etc.
Yes that helped for one thanks I am still looking for another.

A few android question

Hi,
I've been with WinMo since 2001 until about a week ago when I switched to andriod. I have many questions and was unsure where to turn to. I will try here. If there is a better place, please let me know.
I have a Desire Z that I got with ATT 3G bands. I have successfully rooted the device, overclocked it, and installed Cyanogen 6.
1) When I hit the power button, I still have to swipe my finger across the screen to unlock. How do I make it so I don't have to do this?
2) I had some difficulty upgrading to Cyanogen 6 and was unable to get 7 to work. IfI want to mess around further with roms, is there some way I can backup EVERYTHING so if I screw up, I can make my phone exactly the way I have it now without a whole lot of work re-installing stuff, etc.?
3) The link to the phone, app, and browser are all stuck on the bottom of the phone. Can I get rid of this?
4) When laying apps out on the home screen, there seems to be some kind of grid that they are locked into that makes it hard to move them exactly where I want them. It will let me lay them so they overlap each other, but not very close to each other. Is there some way to overcome this?
5) I can't seem to arrange apps close to the top of the screen because the garbage can overlay slides down and when I move the app near the top it thinks I am trying to throw it away.
6) Is there an app that will show both the current weather and an icon for the weather conditions in the status bar?
Wow, a lot of questions...
1, Go to Settings->CyanogenMod Settings->Input Settings and select Trackball wake/Trackball Unlock or Menu Unlock and after that you will be able to select Disable Unlock Slider
2, Try Titanium Backup (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup)
3, As far as I know CM6 uses ADW.Launcher as default launcher. You can change it to LauncherPro (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.fede.launcher) which is fully customisable
4, There is a grid which can't be changed
5, LauncherPro has the trash icon at the bottom
6, Sorry, I didn't find any

Hello Everyone.
I went and found some of these answers on my own. I also was able to upgrade to CM7.
1) I found an app for it but will try PsHeger's solution.
2) I found that the bootloader/Rom manager do a good job of this, too.
3) I was able to remove it in the app launcher rather than using pro.
4) This absolutely pisses me off. I have a Winmo 6.5 phone that lets me have a nice, organized home screen. I can't believe there isn't a better solution to this. Good lord.
6) Go Weather App does this.
if you set your grid settings to 10x10 rows and columns in launcher pro, you can put the icons and widgets pretty much anywhere.

You can try this, but you will need to buy a pro key for laincherpro to strech the widgets or they will look really stuid

I found that the auto stretch check box pretty much solved the problem with layout.

custom app starter on lockscreen

i am using cm nightly latest and wanted to setup the custom app starter with the ring i know on the rotary revamped u draged down to start selected app but when i do it on the ring it dont start the app so my question is which way do i drag as i have tried all ways possible.
Have you seen the sense 3.0 lockscreen? It is similar to that. When you touch the custom app starter, the icons of the apps should appear, and you drag the ring over the respective app icon you want to launch. The starter by itself cant launch anything
It'll probably be easier to explain vua screenshot, I'll post one when I get back.

I've only just got my head around how this works! It's pretty awesome. Is there any way to make the status bar drop-down one of the shortcuts so you go directly to notifications after unlocking the screen? I can't figure out a way of doing it currently.
Cheers!
