Does Anyone knows how to delete bookmarks on samsung galaxy s2 i been trying for hrs and just cant delete them thanks

Hmm, you mean tap-and-hold on a bookmark, pick "Delete Bookmark" from pop-up menu does not work for you? Scroll that pop-up menu down if you do not see the "Delete Bookmark" option.

you are still not being clear
I think what you described lead to the list of bookmarks at the end. So there, on that bookmark list screen, tap and hold any bookmark you want to delete, a pop up menu would appear, scroll that menu down to "Delete Bookmark" and tap that menu item.

When you browse internet, there will be a star button on top right corner of the screen. Tap it, inside is your selection on bookmarks. Now tap and hold one of the bookmarks you wish to delete, then a selection of actions will appear and you just select delete.

wondering what browser you running with?

How might I open the notification bar via a button

I'm running Launcher Pro, I have my notification bar hidden, and I'd like to have a shortcut on the launcher to open the notification bar. I'm not sure how to go about doing this.
I tried to go through Launcher Pro's activity list, but I didnt see anything for the notification bar. I could probably figure out how to create a Launcer Pro shortcut if I knew which command was being executed to open the notification bar.
The alternative is to press the menu key and then the notification button, but pressing two things is harder than simply pressing one...
Any help would be appreciated.
Pretty sure you can map it to the home button

You can do it through LauncherPro. When you click on the LauncherPro dock, select Swipe gesture action and then you can pick open notification bar. Then for the button on the dock you just set this to, you can swipe your finger up and it will open your notification bar
You have a couple options for this.
1:
A. Long press any of the icons on your Launcher.
B. Select "Swipe gesture action"
C. Select "Open notifications"
D. Now when you swipe up on that icon, the notification bar will open.
2:
A. Press "Menu"
B. Press "Preferences"
C. Press "Behavior Settings"
D. Press "Home key action"
E. Press "Open/Close notifcations"
F. Now when you press the home key, the notification bar will open.
G. You can set it to still send you to your home screen first by selecting "Home key to default screen" on the "Behavior Settings" page.
I knew there would be smart people here who had figured this out. These worked and solved my problem. Thank you!

[Q] zeam fullscreen

Help!!!!!. How do I get out of full screen zeam?
I found the flag and set and now I now longer have the battery and navigation screen on the bottom so I can no longer go back to preferences and turn full screen off. I have button savior turned on but zeam does not recognize the menu button so I am stuck. I am running on a NC version 1.1.0 with Autonooter 3.0. Please Help. I find it pretty stupid that you can't access a menu to turn off full screen.
I usually assign an up swipe to show/hide the notification bar. Can you long press on the desktop and get a preferences menu?
Nope, I assume by upswipe, you mean swiping from the bottom up but that didn't work. Tried swiping right to left and tried the long press. Nothing happens. I guess I may have to restore the data file from titanium but I was hoping to find another way to this.
Long pressing on one of your home screens should bring up a menu that has 3 options: "Add Item", "Set Wallpaper", and "Preferences". Selecting "Preferences" should bring you to the Zeam Preference menu.

Thank you. I tried the long press on the main home screen and nothing happened. I had to go to the third page and then do the long press. I guess because I have some apps and widgets running on the main screen. Anyway I got it back. Thank you for your help.

Stock Email - Mark all as read ?

Can the stock email allow you to select all as read, just at present I am selecting emails individually and marking them as read or deleting, am I doing something wrong, as I can't seem to find select all and mark as read, thanks.
Nope, there's no "mark all as read" feature. But you can do a multi-select and delete.
Just go to your unified inbox/inbox, hit the "menu" button, then press the delete button. you'll see checkboxes next to each email - select multiple emails and delete.

[Q] Touchwiz home screen

Does anyone know how to assign the default home-screen on touchwiz? Out the box it always had the dots for the screens but it always moved to the center screen when I pressed home.
When I restored the TW settings to another ROM it ended up with numbered dots instead of solid dots. And now whenever I pressed home while on the home-screen it always moves to the last page.
Is there any obvious setting anywhere it dictates which home-screen page is the main one?
Pinch on any home screen to see all. Menu... Set as Home. Tap the screen you want. Tap Done.

I must be not pressing the right combination of buttons. Can you explain it again?
I feel like a 5 year old
When you pinch a home screen (thumb and index finger swiped toward each other) , it should show all your homescreens. Then press the menu capacitive button. Only option is to Set as Home. Then just tap on the image of the homescreen you want as the main one.

Hmm, when I have all the pages showing I press menu but no options shows up. I vaguely remember this when I picked up the phone stock. I wonder if it has anything to do with the SAUROM.

If you having problems 'pinching' the home screen, you can also hit menu, edit to get to the same view, then hit menu to set home...

I am on Saurom too and I too am not able to set the homescreen. I know I was able to on the stock rom by tapping menu when there was a preview scree but it now no longer works.

[Q] Long press anywhere menu triggers way too easily. Possible to disable?

I enjoy that it is easy to access the themer menu easily, but it triggers very frequently when I am using the dialer widget. Is there any way to disable the menu?
Have had same issue as have others m8,the developers are looking into it
For the moment, you can uncheck "Lock homescreen Widgets" in Advanced Settings > Desktop, I think that's a little bit more slowly to appear.

The problem is that Themer has "double tap" for Themer Menu in the Gestures. When using the Dialer widget you type the first 2 numbers and it thinks you double tapped. Wish I could disable this gesture.

Hi,
Hold down on the homescreen - Themer Settings - Gestures - Double Tap - select the "X" at the top of the screen. Done

Well I find that it triggers much too easy as only a long press menu as well. In your case, just disable the double tap gesture in the settings.
But yea, that menu is popping up all the time for me when I don't want it to. Would like more settings for this. I have it set to pop up with long press on the home button. That is good enough for me. No need for it on the screen. An option to disable would be great.
Also would like an option to get rid of the red X on long presses when widgets are unlocked.
