[Q] help. How to make wifi tethering shortcut with launcherpro - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, I'm hoping someone can help me here. I did a search but with the enormous amount of pages, i have yet come across any info on this. Hopefully someone can help me. I have an unrooted phone, and not really looking to root it at the current moment. I want to create a shortcut with launcher pro plus that brings me to the wifi tethering menu/or to just turn it on. Help please! thanks

long press on your home screen for the menu, select shortcuts>activities>settings>settings(com.android.settings.tethersettings). You can choose the default icon, or click on it to change it.

He nailed it. If you ever root you could get a button for it put into your drop-down notifications bar too.

Thanks a lot guys!

LG Optimus Dual's gestures

Hi everybody!
Is there an application that lets you use lg optimus dual's gestures? I refer to the possiblity to move the cursor, when you are writing, left or right simply by hitting your device on the left or the right side.
Thank you in advance and sorry my english

Bump!
This sounds pretty interesting...
Yes this is possible, actually with a little bit of porting you could use the same app. The only real problem is that the hardware (accelerometer) is different. But it shouldn't be to big of a problem. How usefull this app would be is a second issue. You are aware that it is merely a gimmick and not even very functional on the optimus right?
Hope this informed you enough. If you want someone to develop it for you, just send out a request and donate kindly
Thank you for the explanation, my real problem is how to move between text easily, i red about this possibility but it's not an useful solution... Thank you tho for helping
Btw do you know how to move practically between text?

No problem, Could you elaborate on that? I don't understand what you mean exactly. You press where you want to have the cursor on text? On website its a longpress and then you can drag (and copy search etc) Is this what you mean?
I have some problems while typing a text message, for example, my finger isn't too much precise to choose the right place;
another important problem that i have is when i'm searching on Google: if what i'm searching is longer than the bar, and I'd like to edit the last word, i can't move the cursor too right beside i should tap the "x", that deletes all...
Sorry my English i tried to explain as best as i can, i hope that it's understandable...
10q again for help

Actually I know what you mean, google thing you can solve by making a text selection and draging it to the beginning. For the text problem there isnt really a solution. I got used to it pretty fast and im accurate now. Also the gingerbread keyboard is a bit better when it comes to text selection, if your not using it yet it might be worth giving a try
you can find a flashable package of the keyboard here.
Hope this will help you!
Edit: Text selection in google mobile is indeed not possible. A solution for this could be to use classic google which has a larger text box. (I am using this since the beginning, its actually faster and less buggy, downside is that you have to zoom in and out a bit more)
I already have a gingerbread keyboard, thank you...

Ok good, best keyboard imo. OT: you still want the dual gestures? Could ask some dev's to take a look at it
no i don't think i will, it's not so important, i don't want to bother a dev for so little...
Hahaha, lonely in this thread. We could have almost handled it with pm's

[Q] Help with mod?

I've been searching for months now and have had no luck. Does anyone know if a mod exists that will remove the page jumps from my homescreen ? It would allow me to scroll from one end of my screens to the other end with one flick. In ios it was called smoothboard. Any help guys? Ever even heard of it on an android ?
Launcher Pro does that.

Thanks for the reply, but I'm not talking about virtual looping at the ends. I'm talking about flicking it on my farthest left screen all the way through my screens to the farthest on the right. It would also allow you to stop the homescreen with two rows from each page available. Any idea what I mean or anyone else have any help?
Nothing guys? I'm wondering if this is even possible ?
I've given up and moved on.
If any dev were to take this challenge on I would handsomely reward them.
I would probably pay around $50 to have this functionality.
Sorry mods, I just needed a few more posts so that I can post a reply on a newly released roms thread. No questions or noob problems, just wanna be able to post and tell people how crazy it is.
But the deal is really still on the table though!

Lock Screen Crashed?

Hello everyone,
I am new with Zenfone 2 and I was eager to explore the phone and so I stumble upon the case where my phone lock screen menu is disable after I install some 3rd party app. (I screenshot the problem but I don't know howto attach it in this thread. I'm so sorry. I'm new to this kind if forum)
I don't know how to enable it back and I am really hoping that 'factory reset' is the last thing to do...
Thank you...
P/S: If you want to see the screenshot, please teach me how to post it in here... Thank you very much.
