Difference between "Remove All", "End All" and "Free Memory"?
So when you long press the home button, does clicking "Remove All"just remove the shortcut or does it actually end the task? Is it any different from "Clear All" (under task manager, active applications), and if I did either/both of the above, does hitting "Free Memory" do anything more?

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!

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?
In GinderDX & some over custom there is function "back" button "end call". How can we make function "accept incoming call" on "menu" button and save function "menu" for other apps. If possible you can make this for all xda-xperiax8 users and for me. Sorry for a noob question and my bad english.
Thanx all who helped.

There is an app called "button remaper". Search for it and I think it needs root.

ButtonRemapper not have function "accept incoming call" only "endcall", and ButtonRemapper don't save function "menu" for other apps. I think for this need change Phone.apk, but i'm not able do this.
added:
Has found, ButtonRemapper have function "phone" and this worked. But if i press menu button in other apps its open phone. I need for "menu" worked as "phone" only than i have incomming call.
Most apps i have on my phone you just press the back button and they exit the apps but there are 2 in particular where you cant seem to exit the apps unless you press the home key and then kill the selected app in Task Manager (which usually results in a reboot so i use the Task Manager function in ZD box and that never causes a reboot) what im worried about is if i continue to do this my phone might become a little unstable, task killers are not particularly good to use and even though im only "killing" one app im wondering is there another way of exiting the app without having to go to ZD Box > Task Killer?
What apps are they? Just wondering because some apps have a specific exit button somewhere or another.
Some apps I have require me to hit menu then select exit, or have an exit button somewhere or in the case of Skype which requires users to select 'profile' or be on the main menu, then hit the menu button and select 'sign out'.

Just the 2 apps i can think of are ITV Player and Dublin Bus official app, id use the Dublin Bus a lot more but no matter how many times i press he back button it wont exit so i end up going to ZD Box > Task Manager and killing the app.
Whenever I install an app, it automatically creates a shortcut on the screen. Why this happening?
How can I stop that

Hi,
Go to Play Store and press menu button. (left down button)
Then go to settings and uncheck the "Put shortcut automatically" (i don't know the real english translation but in Play store settings, it's the fourth option from the top)
Hope it helped!
