[Q] Contact List Scroll Letter Tabs - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone know of a better app to manage the letter scroll in contacts. They are so little and hard to properly touch for me.
All ideas welcomed.

As opposed to grabbing the tab once you scroll?
Or just pressing the alpha letter on the far right?
You can use the google search bar if you have contacts searchable... or by pressing the search button if you dont use the widget.
I guess you know the scroll left/right to message/phone too right? If not, read the General Sticky.

Change scrolling page method in hd2

Hey guys,
I'm running stock rom on my hd2. I'm currently using a program called uptodate, which shows alot of information in text. The way I scroll now is using the scroll bar on the right of the screen. However I find that quite difficult when there are huge amount of information on the screen.
How do I change it so that when I want to scroll down the page, I can just scroll down by pressing on the page itself, and not on the scroll bar on the right side of the screen?
Currently it will allow me to select text, but won't allow me to scroll down by pressing on the text part itself.
I read that this can be done before, but I cant seem to find it via searching.
Cheers~

[Q] How to scroll wide status in app ?

Hi,
I make some search in this forum and in google and I have not been able to find an answer to my problem.
I'm a new Razr owner. Before I had a HTC Hero with trackball.
In whattsapp, I want to read a status which is wider than the screen. I'd like to know how to make it scroll. If I tap on it, I select the contact to write a message.
With the Hero, I used the trackball to scroll down to the wanted item to highlight it and the text began to scroll.
Now, without any kind of trackball, I've tried several way to highlight the item with a tap or a gesture, but no way to read the whole text making it scrolling.
Could someone help me ?

[Q] How to add a toggle for Recent App?

Hi, I would like to know how I can toggle Recent App of ICS. It can be shown by long clicking on the home button. The one that has preview because I don't like to be pressing so much my home button as I am noticing improper responses from it. Is there a way to put this as an icon or widget on the homescreen? Thx
Anyone? Tried apps like button savior, etc. But it shows their built-in recent apps instead of the firmware's or samsung's.
BUMP
I know this post is old, but Im trying to figure a way too without using an app or service BUMP\
I found what I was looking for in app LMT using the "invisible swipe gestures" set to top center of screen so that swiping top left is notifications, top right is quick settings, and top center opens recents. This is for anyone who might be searching and happen to land on this dead thread. Any other particular method of shortcut will work if you set it to Activities>SystemUI>Overview.recents is the path to this.
sent from the tapatalk app on my S3 running whatever rom Im running this week
I use GMD Gestures, because my sensitive buttons aren't working. Before, I used CM official inbuilt option that you can change the option sensitive (or back) button for recent Apps. Can really recommend that. Greetings.

[Q] contact icon is missing

I dont know what happen. I woke up one morning and the contact icon on the bottom of the home screen is gone. I usualy have four icons there. Phone contact messaging and application. But now i only have three. I still could see contact icon inside application. how do i fix it?
Open application drawer, menu, edit, long press the relevant icon and put it back? Or similar, I forget the exact order of things in TW.
how do i do that? im running on stock ics. I didnt root
I just told you? What's unclear and why are you going on about root?
In the 'Phone contact messaging and application', click on the application icon.
press the 'menu/options' button - this is the left of the 3 buttons at the bottom of the phone. this will pop-up a menu. Select 'Edit' from this menu.
You can now move all the icons about. You can move icons from page to page and also from the page to the 'Phone contact messaging and application'.
Once you have changed it to the way you want it, select the 'menu/options' button and select Save.
This has been already answered, but I thought I would make it a bit clearer. There is no requirement to root the phone for this as it is a standard feature of Android.

[Q] Google Voice Search on ICS

I have just jumped into my first ICS rom and one thing I noticed I can not figure out is the new Google Voice Search. On any GB Rom I used, I was able to place a short cut from the draw to my home screen, a simple 1x1 icon. Now that is taken away and the only real option is the 4x1 Good Search bar. I just want a simple 1x1 icon to start just the voice search, not launch the whole Search app with keyboard. Any idea.
I know, I have tried many of the other "Personal Assistant" programs but for simple sending a text, email or requesting to make a call, I have had better luck with the Google Voice Search app. It is simpler and does what I need without trying to have a conversation with me or trying to let me know what else it can do over and over again.
I just took and added the shortcut to my homescreen, and and it works. I think you can long press the search key, and and it works as well. Am I missing something here? I am on Chingy's new effing ics rom. Are you on stock, and or a mod? More info, and I might be able to help.

I am on Cleanrom DE 1.4 and I do not see an option of adding a single icon short cut. This is where my confusion is coming from.
If you have voice search in your app drawer, just long press, and drop it on your home screen. Hope I am helping, and not completely off of what you are asking....

If you don't have it in your app drawer, install it from the market!
Just search for "voice search"
After that, the widget will work and voice text recognition is back.
It is installed, I can place the 4x1 full Google Search box on my home screens, but I do not show Voice Search listed in my apps, though in the market it is up to date and installed. I just can not seem to get a single 1x1 icon set on the home screen to activate the voice search... scratching my head on this one.
Sorry to bump an old thread but I miss the 1x1 widget in GB also.
Any solution?
Doesn't press and hold of search button work for anyone?
