Firstly, I'd look in the manual.
However if you go to your app drawer, long press on an icon, it will take you to your homescreen, from there you can drag to your dock and drop where you want.
That's assuming you don't have a custom launcher and have changed settings to single dock.

As I am quite new maybe I do not use the right tech word. Sorry. I tried to drag and drop. From the app screen, I come ti my home screen. Ok. But when I want to put on my dock (the fix bar it just above the home button)... It becomes the litter bin and nothing. Mmhhh...

What launcher?

No launcher installed except the original one. I have gingerbread. Phone rooted, but disppearance happened before. First time when I arrive in amman and get connected there. Contacts icon gone. Then 2 others here in yemen for no reason as I was in yemen before without prblm

Sorry, I haven't used TouchWiz launcher since i was on eclair - however, by far the best advice I can give you, would be to install launcher pro or zeam free from the market.
There are many others, but these are probably the easiest. Zeam is very basic and light, lp has more features. Get them both, find which one suits you best. You won't be disappointed.

Tks for advice. I bought adw launcher. This does not answer my question but better now. Still have to fiddle with it... Best!

You have to press the menu button while being in app drawer. then press config just as when you deinstall apps from your drawer. Now you can drag and drop whatever you want

Thank you. Will keep the tip. Btw, if I want to buy another android phone, maybe gal s2... I can move the apps or I have to buy all anew?
Have a nice day

I wonder why not all news apps or others do not allow to access to dictionaries when u need to know meaning of one word bu long tapping on it? This would be a real plus, no?

[TIP] How to easily get 1-2 hours extra battery life

Freezing these apps gave me an average of 2 hours extra battery.

You might as well post how to freeze them in my opinion

Or AntTek App Manager, free.

You can natively freeze them with ICS, in your app drawer (stock TW Launcher) drag the app icon to app info, and click disable

I removed them. No need to freeze if your plan on not using them. Free up internal space.

Not sure what you mean by drag the app to app info....

From your app drawer, click and hold on the program you want, and it should take you to your home screen....at the top you should see "App Info". Drag the app icon onto that and it'll display the info you need.

hrmm...maybe it's because I haven't had my morning tequila shot yet but I don't see any such app info icon when I do what you're saying. I go to the app drawer, click and hold an app, it takes me to the home screen, but there's nothing anywhere that says app info.
Could this be something that's not on the ATT version of the phone?
::edit:: ok...I'm an idiot. I found it....but it's at the bottom of the screen, not at the top.

I just disabled them except for samsung account which I use for Samsung Dive.

I had to uninstall updates and then disable became an option.
Using the app info method works great if you are not rooted.
In the event you are rooted, using TB is easier. both work without any issues for all listed apps in the op.
THANKS!:good:

Do you need to be rooted to do this?
edit, never mind I figured it out, didn't know ICS could do that.

No sir. You can do this with most of the pre-installed carrier software. I believe the option is "disable". When you see it you'll know what I mean. In fact it was the one thing that made me think that I wouldn't have to root my phone. Then I quickly got annoyed by the T-Mobile startup and shut down sounds. Can someone please tell T-Mobile to leave the standard start up and shut down sequence alone. I mean expect that from Verizon; Have you heard any of their phones start up? They're crazy obnoxious.

Great feature! You can also go to settings-applications-all and do or that way. Just uninstall updates and then you will have the disable button. Thanks for the top all.

So finally flashed jelly bean....this is what i think

First of all it super fast....
You will love it.i flashed latest indian version.
Pros:
1.more ram,now 770 mb available
2.now it have both potrait and landscape rotation
3.fluid interface....
4.new features like google now,blocking mode are cool
5.keyboard lag that was present in ics has been fixed,now it to fluid
6.WATER DETECTION HAS GONE....NOW LONG PRESS AS LONG AS YOU WANT....ITS BEST PART FOR ME.....
7.FLASH PLAYER IS STILL WORKING FOR ME.i tried in dolphin browser.....:beer::beer::beer:
Cons:
1.dont know why but i feel that text looks somewhat blurry now,eyes starts feeling some strain....maybe because text is small in many places,:confused
So samsung please fix it...
2.don't like new notification bar old notification panel at bottom was good.
3.long home press do not open task manager now,and recent app do not open app drawer...
And position of back and home button have been interchanged,so it will take some time to get used to it
And now there is no screenshot poet button.to take screen,long press power and volume down button together until it takes screen.you will hear snap.
so What do you people think???

[Q] txtx messages

Hello all. When typing a txt msg every time I want a space I have to double tap the space button to start a new word. Is there a way to disable this. I'm using 3x4 keyboard on predictive. I noticed if I just type hello and wait 2 seconds the line goes under the word and when I hit space once its fine. But when typing fast I have to double tap the space otherwise its just coming up as one word. I'm unable to find a setting to turn that off.. Never had this on the s3. Really annoying!!!
Please help

Dude, as simple as it is get another keyboard, or check your current keyboard settings.
