Hello. I have a Verizon Galaxy S4 with 4.4.2. I have had this problem on my phone for a while. The problem is on the Favorite Apps thing when you swipe left on the lock screen, where you have shortcuts to apps. I added one ofe shortcuts to be to Google play music. I later saw that is removed all of the shortcuts that I put there. When I tried to add them back, the apps were not on the list of apps to be able to have a shortcut for. If I add any other app to have a shortcut, it will just remove it from the page, and the list of apps that are able to be added asa shortcut. How can I fix this and add shortcuts to my apps? Thank You.

Hi everyone,
I am using the HD2_NDT_MIUI_GINGER_DEVELOPMENT_V21.1 rom.
I was reorganizing my apps and seemed to drag & drop an icon off the screen and it has disappeared. How can I add an application shortcut to my home screen again? I am specifically looking for the MIUI camera application.
Thanks!
Hi.
Just got a Nexus 4 after some thieving Spanish barstewards stole my Note 2. Loving the phone so far.
Quick question. Can you add to the Google apps folder on the home screen that is there when you first start it up? I know you can delete from it as I deleted the Youtube widget, but I wanted to add the Google Now widget but when I try to add it as if it was a folder it doesn't work.
Is it just not possible?

Guess I'm not following what you mean exactly by folder?
Are you using the stock launcher or another launcher (ie: apex, nova, etc) .
Normally to add a widget you would simply long-press the home screen, select widgets, and pick that, and should show up as a widget, if you're creating a folder you're probably dragging the app icon onto something else.
Yeah, I thought I wasn't explaining myself very well.
It's stock launcher. On the home screen, when you first set up the phone, there is a widget/folder titled "Google" which is effectively a folder containing the widgets for various Google apps ie Gmail, Google+, maps etc. I wondered whether it is possible to add to this folder (for want of a better word). If I try to drag a widget over it that doesn't work.
Hope that's a bit clearer.
Don't worry - sorted it.
Hi all,
I'm looking for a couple of mods that I haven't seen and was wondering if there is one or not. I'm not really wanting to use a separate launcher if I don't have too.
1. Is there a mod to add the play store link to the top right of the app drawer where the settings shortcut is?
2. Is there a way to make the folders I setup on the home screen look like the circles on the stock android home screen?
3. Is there a way to add Torch (flashlight) to the quick settings bar in the notification tray?
I'm loving this phone as it runs circles around my galaxy nexus and these are the only things I am kind of missing.
Thanks in advance.
How do you add a settings shortcut for battery and wifi manager on the home screen? I've been scouring through the widgets and nothing seems to appear, normally with all other phones a "settings" widget is available and you get to choose which settings you want a link to.
Thanks

i was using the galaxy note ii for a while and loved settings widget/shortcut. i moved on to the galaxy note 3 on a different carrier. i also have sm-n9005. both note 3s do not have the settings widget. it is frustrating. what i recommend is installing action launcher by chris lacy. it will add 2 widgets to the widget launcher/menu. choose the activities widget. the list of apps and settings that populates is more extensive than the note ii's version. there you can add bluetooth, data usage, wifi, and tethering one by one. after creating all the shortcuts i needed, uninstalled action launcher. remember to keep touchwiz as your default launcher in the beginning of the process.
(on a side note, action launcher is great. i even purchased the pro key. however, i just don't like the way apps look in folders. in addition, 1x1 widgets do not align properly with regular app icons sometimes. as for 4 row widgets, it automatically adds margins/padding so they look more align with other same sized widgets. some 4 row widgets on touchwiz go edge to edge which is annoying. in regards to the s pen features, air command did not pop up on action. honorable mention, shutters is a great action feature. last mention, i don't use action on the note 3.)
Hi, I am wondering if there is a way to keep the Multiwindow function on but hide the little tab that overlays on every screen. I know I can enable/disable miltiwindow in the notification toggles, but I would rather have it hidden and turned on. I have the Note 10.1 2014 and I much prefer the way they did that multiwindow where a swipe from the right opens it up and there is no tab overlay. Any apps/mods that will do this?
Also, is there a way to easily add all of my apps to the multiwindow list? I have MW apps manager but I still have to manually add each app to the list that is available, and I can not sort the apps by name which makes it a huge pain to find the app I want quickly. Thanks.

Hold down the back button to hide it, again to show it.
Search play store for multi window manager.
