[Q] Installing Android App Creates Two Icons... - Android Software Development

Hi all,
I am developing an Android app that has a main screen and a subscreen (called from main screen). When I install the App on my phone, two icons are created: one for the main screen and one for the subactivity. I would like to have just the one icon installed (for the main screen).
Any recommendations on how to prevent the subactivity icon from being installed?

Simple launcher app for today screen (large icons)

Hi guys,
I'm looking for an aps for my today screen that will simply have a few icons that i can customise to launch my most used apps.
I've tried cLaunch and Launch but both arn't suitable.
Any other ideas?
It needs to be simple, i dont need all the extra bloat, just a basic app launcher with largish icons.
Cheers in advance
i am assuming you are not using tf3d as there is a quicklaunch tab on there?

create a shortcut instead of application drawer

Hi guys,
I'm using ahome which works great for me, only one thing bothering me... when I activate the app drawer the icon for it is on the left hand side of the screen and I feel it's out of place because it isn't aligned with the rest of the icons...
So I was wondering if it's possible to create a shortcut (e.g. with bettercut) to the application drawer so I can just give it an icon and fit it in a bit estetically in my home-screen
Thx!

Hi there,
first of all, make sure that you install sdkcert.cab, it can be found here in the downloads section at the bottom of post #2. Then simply install the relevant cab file to your device and it should change your taskbar icons.
Yes, but I want to change icons and bar
This app changed only icons.
And whats more I cannot access my menu after installing this app. [Icon with windows logo disappeared]
Ahh i think I now understand what you meant.
If you are wanting to change the appearance of both the Top Taskbar and Bottom Soft Keybar, this is how I did it:
I currently use Max TF3D Theme Maker v4.1 to customise the appearance of my Home Screen and other screens (even where both the Taskbar and Soft Keybar reside to make them Transparent).
You can download and install the cab (install it to your sd card) for it here.
You first need to set a Background wallpaper first as it will not work properly with just the default background, normally you actually need to set a new background first.
Now, to set the Task bar and Soft KeyBar to transparent using Max TTM, open up Max TTM, go to the WM6.5 tab and under the Component Heading, make sure it is set as Both. Then only select the two bottom checkboxes (Enable Standard Deployment and Soft Reset after Convert), then click the Convert button to enforce the changes.
Sorry for any inconvenience I may have caused.
I hope this helps you out.

[Q] dumb question : how to remove completely Today background image?

so that its just black? or do I have to make up a black JPG?!
I don't think you can have nothing. It does need at least a basic background wallpaper that can indeed be a black rectangle if you create it to the correct size and point to it using the "Pictures & Videos" app. That is for the basic Today screen that comes bundled with the Uni, unless you have customised it with some other software.

Homescreen icons

I have two questions I was hoping some people with stock android could help with:
1. How do you have a homescreen with no icons? I have my favorite apps in folders along the bottom so don't need anything else on the screen. If I try this, android deletes the page and uses my second page as the homescreen (full of widgets).
2. Does anyone know how to get more than 4 icons in the favorites along the bottom?
TIA
