Just go to settings then application manager and clear data. That's faster than closing each tab one by one.

Go to settings within chrome if it chrome that is, and switch merge tabs and apps off now you can close tabs within chrome.

thanks everyone
i figured why i didn't see the tabs button , it was on easy mode...
when i changed it i could see the tabs button again
and yes
it's faster with the clear data
thanks everyone !!!

You have it in easy mode if you don't see the tab at the right bottom of your open tab. Go to settings and change from easy mode to standard mode then open a Web site you now should see the tab square on the bottom right of your tool bar...tap it it will open up your tabs, tap the more top right and it gives you the option to close all...hope this helps ....took me a day to find it....oh if you want you can switch back to easy mode all should be as you left it

Hello, where is this easy mode? I have looked through my Google and Internet settings and I can find where you can switch from "easy" to "standard", can you walk me through it please.

(the"01:08" part on the top bar)
Cheers
It's easy,
Download and install HTCustom from here:
http://shadowmite.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=2231&p=7890#p7890
In the "UI" tab you can select in Clock Display one of these options:
Time, Date, Both, Nothing or Battery
Select the one you like, save and soft reset.
Cheers,
Works a treat, only thing is it now hides the volume and half the signal status icons.
If i tap in the empty space it does bring up the volume slider, The icon is just invisble.
when i open a program its is still shown like above.
If i slide open then close again (refreshing the screen) it looks fine. but once back to the today screen it it goes back to like the image above.
On another tanget, the battery status bar (Lordsmiff's) at the top doesnt always work.
I have to stop and restart the app to get an accurate reading, that or view the power status in the settings tab, then go back to the today screen.
Anyone able to shed some light on either of these matters?
Cheers

I started using this yesterday, it is a great app that works in conjunction with your existing home screen. Right now it is on sale for $.99
XDA thread from Nexus One
Edit: More information as requested.
Function Description:
1. Can be started from any app in any orientation by a single home key click.
2. Access your preferred home screen by double home key clicks.
3. Fast switch to another app, one click to switch back.
4. One click to see all your apps in your current application.
5. Use widgets in your running application without exiting it.
6. Directly share your current application/widget to your friends or visit its market page.
7. Directly uninstall or force stop the running applications without exiting it.
8. Totally customizable.
9. No space limit. You can add ALL your widgets/shortcuts/bookmarks/contacts to it if you wish.
Screenshots do not really do it justice, but here they are:
Screenshots would help with the description tremendously.....
PowerStrip. Definitely a great app. Been using it for a few months now.
It's basically "hidden/second" homescreen that gives access to widgets, apps, shortcuts without having to exit to your main homescreen. I definitely recommend it.

so basically the same thing as QuickDesk, which I might add is free
Very true. Quickdesk is free, but you only have 1 screen. PowerStrip technically gives you 3 screens AND access to all your apps.
I've used QuickDesk and it's a great app too. PowerStrip is well worth the $1, IMO.

how to get PIE (floating) controls to recover screen space?

Hi
How to get these PIE buttons or floating controls = (home, back, menu) and recover screen real estate? Thanks. It's so much faster to access instead of moving entire to bottom left corner.

Try searching for full!screen in Google Play. I've been playing around with it and it seems excellent -- after customizing a few default settings. There is a full!screen+ that allows you to apply app specific settings.
If you want to use it exclusively then you'll have to get something to display your notifications. I'm still shopping around for that.
WoW thankS !!!!!

Hi
How do you make use of Android 4
If you give me the link
Hi omidmomid,
Sorry I don't understand your question, can you elaborate further? thanks.
In case I think that you're asking how did I make use of Android 4 inside Jetstream???
Then the answer is NO, I don't have Android 4 inside Jetstream, I just want to add PIE on top of existing Android 3.1 honeycomb. The screenshot is not from Jetstream, I just borrow it from outer places to ensure everyone does not mistaken PIE. Sorry to have confused you.

Enable launcher themes without root

Download launcherpro(the old one)
Set lg launcher as default. Launcherpro only needs to be installed
Add the "activities" widget with the launcherpro icon
Go down to "home" and hit it
Pick the one that is circled in the screenshot
Profit. Now you can download themes from the g2 or flex or optimus g pro or gpro2 threads..

Thank you. Got it working and all but the themes aren't really all that. I really miss Unicon and can't wait for it to work on the G3.

Im on a g2. But should be the same since im on a g3 port
the keyboard themes and fonts are working as well.
metal body keyboard theme is awesome
im really digging MDcats fonts
Im having no luck getting anything to be able to be applied in the theme center thing. Nothing shows up regardless of what I dl. How did you get a keyboard skin to work?
Also I found if you add widget then to home an go to one that lets you access hidden menu scroll to bottom an select this an will give you the theme option in display in menu

[SHARE][APP] SwiftOpen - Fast Launcher

Hello. Yesterday, i was searching for an launcher (NOT a home launcher} which allow me to run apps more quickly from any app I'm running at an moment.
I found this app named SwiftOpen. It's thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-swiftopen-fast-launcher-beta-t2871523 .
It allow you to add apps shortcuts, even some settings like wifi, so you can put wifi on more easy. You swipe from right (you can change the place from where to swipe) and the launcher come.Read the whole description of it's thread. Oh, and don't forget to press thanks button to the developer
Review / My opinion:
In my opinion it does a great job. I don't even have to press home button to go in another app. It use about 15 MB ram. Last night i had 58% battery and i kept this app running in background and today, in the morning, i had same battery percent. So, it seems that it doesn't drain battery.
Now i don't even need to use the home button, as i placed an shortcut of "home" in the bottom left
I downloaded the latest version released. I encountered one bug: when i want to change the place of an shortcut, the app crash, but the shortcut get moved.
Here is an screenshot. You see an white square in the right, it's because i kept my finger there to take an screenshot, otherwise the launcher dissapear. By the way, you can add more shortcuts, even Tasker ones !!!

he he LOL
btw i doubt that our SMART phone will stand this kind of multi tasking if i have FB installed
Also found this app recently, it's the best launcher by a long shot. I have a G4 and I hate the softkeys taking up screen space, as you mentioned this app means you don't need any other buttons or home button.
Thanks for the tip to put this launcher in the place of the home button, I had it on the side but now that you mention it that's naturally the best spot to put it.
Do you use it on Lollipop and use the Alt-tab feature?
That's not working for me on 5.1, think it's a lollipop issue?
