[Q] how do i find my newly installed apps beside searching?

tried searching for this but couldnt it so pls bear with me...
I just autonootered my nc last night and installed my paid apps from google. How do i find these apps besides searching for them? I noticed that I can't make folders or find the icons to drop on the home screen. Thanks in advance.

If you didn't already, try installing a launcher app like ADW launcher or Zeam. That should allow you to do what you want. Otherwise, if you reboot, you should see your apps show up under the Extras section.

thanks a million.. figured it had to be something simple lol

Nook Color with Cm7, Missing the status bar and buttons?

I've been looking around on the web for a solution. I had this problem when I flashed my nook color a month ago. The girlfriend's got hers now, and we are running into the problem of no status bar. No home or back buttons or anything. And the Market doesn't work... I remember I installed a different version of cm7 on mine, after I had this problem the first time. I found a page talking about it...now I cannot find that page. Mine says 7.1.0 encore and works, as does hers...but it doesn't work...So...Hm.
Pardon my noobergy...but... Could I get a hand here? haha.

There's an app on the market called Status Bar Restarter.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.khanning.statusbarrestarter&hl=en
Two comments say that it works with CM7.
For the market, try going to settings/manage apps/market and clearing the cache. You can also try uninstalling the market update and letting it update again. If all else fails, you could reflash CM7. (Or maybe just gapps - the market is in there.)

We cannot use the market mate :[ , both it and the status bar just instantly crash, or Force close I think it's called. I was told before to use a different version of 7.1.0 encore. But I cannot find that thread anymore.
Have you heard of this? Or am I talking nonsense haha

Hey there. you don't have to open the market to go to settings, click "manage apps," click "market" and clear the cache and maybe uninstall the update.
If you can't get to the settings, you can make a shortcut by long pressing on the launcher and selecting activities (I think) and choosing app drawer (If I remember correctly) and you get the icon with four squares in it.
The market link was for when you got the market working, obviously And you didn't say that the status bar was FCing, just that there was none. In that case, the app probably won't help, anyway.
Like I said before, last resort is to reflash. (Either full or gapps.) hth

Btw, you might try MiRaGe's build. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1344873. The changelog mentions your statusbar problem as fixed. And I'm guessing that reflashing would fix the market problem, anyway...
There are a bunch of alternate builds you could try, too. I'm assuming you are using the official CM7 now, since you didn't say.

Oh yeah we she was trying the one from the main Cyanogen site. I will take a look at that, thank you good sir

That did the trick! Thanks guys!

Been looking for a solution for my Status Bar disappearing. The comments say that it works for Nook Color, so I am very hopeful!! Thanks for pointing us to Status Bar Restarter

Market shortcut --> Google Play

I really liked the Market shortcut in the upper right corner, but now, once the Market became Google PLAY, the shortcut is no longer valid, saying "application not installed on your phone".
How can I have the shortcut valid again?

its a problem with blur. motorola is gonna need to do an OTA to fix it.

Might force them to do an ota finally, after all these leaks

Remove Market shortcut and add new shortcut for Play Market. No OTA needed for something this simple.

ist a shotcut on the upper right corner on the motoblur launcher. not a link in the desktop.
i guess you cant remove that shortcut that easy..
you can try a diferent launcher...
where did you updated the market?

Aaargh! My mistake, I did not even consider you were talking about blur. I got out of blur within the first hour after rooting my D3 and never looked back.

[Q]

Has anyone on the KF2 rooted had their statusbar flicker or would know the cause of or solution to the issue?
It just turns off then on, seemingly random. My turning on I mean it appears, the icons adjust to match, then it disappears about one second later, and when I try to swipe down on it, I can't get anything to happen.
Installed new status bars (non root ones) and it replaced the bar that flashes...but the same issue.
This happened after a boot from using KindleFree. I used most of the tools on it, if you want to know I can list them. The only thing that I can POSSIBLY imagine went wrong would be when I tried to see how it would handle the setting a laucnher. So I got nova, rebooted, didn't like nova, set apex as default by pressing home, and that was that. I can't find nova in my ROM toolbox list of apps so I'm not sure how KindleFree installed it, and I'm not sure if that even caused the issue.
Any ideas?
I planned to just reset, re-root and start from clean when I get home but I'm at work for the next 7 hours and I'd like my statusbar back haha.

Well, some update I suppose.
TabletBar Hider does something. When I open the app and press restore, it makes the statusbar flash and appear for a bit. It's the ONLY thing that seems to have a direct effect on when it seems to appear. I tried using apps that make the notification area appear, and those did not work.
My best guess is something is forcing it to close....but I'm not sure what, or why.
Suggestions?

Well.....I've fixed it.
I wanted the Chameleon launcher so I changed my build.prop so the market would think I have a Nexus 7. No, this did not work for the market (I think I need to clear the cache) but, my status bar works! No idea what happened folks but.....there you go?
This thread can be locked or removed or whatnot. Since I really have no useful insight as to what broke or fixed it.
Signs point to installing Nova with KindleFree broke it, and that changing my build prop from a blaze tablet to a nexus 7, fixed it.
It makes no sense to me either, but that's what happened! Oh well, at least it works now. Happy modding and New Years all!

Have you installed Gmail by any chance?

I don't have the kindle fire 2, I have the hd, but for me gmail is the usual culprit for that like mentioned earlier. Other apps have caused it though. Usually going through and opening all the apps you used before it happens will clear that up. I do believe it's some sort of issue with notifications.

How did I not find that thread? Thanks! It could have been. From my thread, you can see my fix didn't seem related to me, BUT, yes, I did install gmail using KindleFree so that may have spawned some issues. However, I have used gmail since, and no issues. I'm not really sure what changing the build.prop does beyond supposedly trick the market, which didn't work for me. Thank you though! Hopefully we get to the root of what exactly this is! Two issues so far, both fixed in different ways. If it happens again I will try your fix and if that works then it's for certain gmail and hopefully we can help future issue finders!

I'm rather curious of getting market to believe the kindle is another device... it would be nice to not sideload so many apps
If you have success with this please post back with your build prop edits

Samsung Keyboard Shortcuts gone.

I installed this app called "SamsungKeyboardShortDelay" from Xposed Installer, and when I rebooted the shortcuts on the Samsung Keyboard dissappeard. I have the At&t N3, rooted via Kingo. The only other app I have is Wanam Xposed. I removed the app and rebooted, and the shortcuts did not come back. I then went into application manager>Samsung Keyboard and cleared the data/cache, rebooted and no luck. I then as a last resort did a factory data reset and they still didn't come back. I don't know what else to do. Please help.

What shortcuts are you talking about

Im talking about the keyboard shortcuts, when you do a long press on a letter it gives you a shortcut to a symbol. View attachment 2561709It's supposed to look like the first picture, but instead it looks like the second.

I didn't have the shortcuts on my standard Samsung keyboard on my Note3. However I got them installing the XPOSED mod "Samsung Alt Symbols"
It works fine for my phone.

Thanks!! Seriously man, I've been trying to get them back for over a month now. That did the trick.

Man thx for this so happy to have them back.
