Has this ever happened to you? It was an accident the first time it happened but, I seem to be able to stack widgets. I start by long pressing on an empty spot on any page, just like you would normally do. Then (have no idea how it happened the first time) before the widget list loads if I quickly flip to the next page where that spot on the screen is already filled, pick my widget, when it loads up, it comes on top of the widget already there. Sometimes it will load behind the one that is there, as was the case the first time it happened, but the next time I rebooted it showed up on top of my calendar. If I move it off of the calendar I can't put it back on, it has to be deleted and stacked in the same manor.
I have to say I really like the feature/bug/whatever. It's a space saver, both widgets are still fully functional and I like the option of being able to save some screen space like in this instance. I can still see my calendar just fine to be honest I don't have a problem with it at all, hope it doesn't go away! I am not really a fan of spreading everything out over 6 or 7 or 12 pages *cough*iphone*cough* and that helps me be able to keep a much better (for me) 3 page set up.
I was mostly curious if anyone else knew about this, and/or maybe if your like me and maybe you'd like to save some real estate it could just be a handy tip!

(2020i) Icon of rotation of screen

It doesn't. I've got the same problem here. I'm going to remove applications one by one as I'm afraid it's some third party software that's responsible for that icon's disappearance.
Will keep you posted.
Mine keeps disappearing too so to save time I just assigned the voice record button to rotate the screen. Still works even if the icon isnt there.
OK, in my case, the culprit was SPB Diary.
I've just sent a message to SPB Support. I'll also examine the CAB, see if it does anything weird with the registry that might interfere with the icon (who knows ?).
Right ... The CAB doesn't touch anything apart from its own software version key. I went to edit the HKLM/Software/GID/Rotation "Hide" key, but it was already "0" (ie "don't hide").
So I'm afraid this really is a problem caused by SPB Diary. Thankfully SPB Pocket Plus has "rotate left/right" items you can add to your today plugin...
I've had my XDA IIi for over a year and probably had the rotate icon on the screen for 2 weeks in total! For me what software i used wasn't an issue, in fact very occasionally it would return for a few days by it's self before going again!
Unless you find an app to keep it on screen u'll have to live with it...

Any way to limited "Share" list? jpg in gallery..

Whenever I want to share something in the Gallery, I'm often wanting to push it to Facebook and my stupid share list has grown so large I can't even see Facebook in the list anymore. Yes, Tweetdeck might could work, although it's great for quick views it's missing a lot of stuff the Facebook app itself has.

Anyone ever seen a way to limit this list, except removing apps? I don't use several of them often, and don't want to send a jpg into most of them, but I don't know of any way to change it.
I assume what shows here is all apps which can receive a jpg.. If I clear the Gallery settings, I believe this list shrinks for a while but before long the apps are all back in the list.
I have the same thing, although at least my Facebook is reachable. No idea what's even off the top of the screen lol

I removed a few apps and now I see Facebook, but.. Bleh... I think it must put them in the order they enumerate, I recall at one point thinking if I ran Facebook first or last, maybe it'd stay at the bottom of the list where I could reach it.
Might sort them top-down as most-used... Awesome

[Mockup] Tasker Holo Redesign

One of my favourite apps is Tasker which allows me to automate parts of my phone. For instance, I get in the car, it turns on GPS, Bluetooth and it starts up my SatNav software. You can find it here.
From the day I had the app, the one glaring problem with it was the UI. It's stuck back in Gingerbread times and a lot has changed since then.
I recently saw a shared post on Google+ from Roman Nurik which showed various mockups of Android apps with a new UI. This made me realise Tasker seriously needs an update and I know exactly how it should look using the Holo design whilst retaining the original layout.
So here it is, my Tasker redesign. I'll be honest, I pictured what this looked like in my head, so I sat down, opened Photoshop and 40 minutes later I had designed something I thought worked great. It's the very first design so could probably do with some community input and refining. Let me know your thoughts.
Original post was from my Google+ Page, however figured I would share it with you here as well as I appreciate not everyone is on Google+

would be awesome! tasker is the best android app ever, but it looks like crap. well, the focus of the app is clearly getting stuff done, but a little bit for the eye wouldnt hurt

smart and cool ....thanks
Awesome app. The calculators at work all have dead batteries so this will be perfect.
I know this is me just trying to break it so usually this may not happen but if you swipe with no numbers twice it will crash every time.
I also find this very hard to close. Possibly because I have wear mini launcher so the very edge of the screen is taken up by that (no issues closing other things). The only way I close this is crashing it or dimming the watch.

Bugs fixed with new update.
Long press to exit the app.
the use of swiping to add, multiply etc is a nice way of overcoming the 'lack of space' problem. i'd definitely use it!
Thank you for your comments
i like it, thank you!
Swipe doesn't work so I'm not able to choose the operation.
I'm on stock 5.1.1.

Strange ghost-like overlay

Hello everybody,
I installed fresh AICP rom on my s3 ( 4g, I9305), and everything works just fine ( had to fiddle a bit with a modem firmware, but in the end everything run just fine...)
Until I noticed ( with my sharp eyes ) that there's an almost invisible overlay covering lower portion of the screen...
I checked all the settings more than once and couldn't find a reason...
Then I flashed two more different rom's ( lineage and RR), same thing... Full wipe, clean install, first boot.. and the ghost overlay was there from the beginning.
Then one more time flashing AICP ( I kinda like it the most...), took some photos, crank the levels in Photoshop and voila... No more no less it's a ghost keyboard, not possible to interact with it in any way... but present everywhere...
Anyone has a clue why this ghost keyboard is there, and how to remove it?

Ok, it looks like it took me a little bit of googling to learn new thing.
Screen burn-in...
I guess that's the reason. And since it's a "natural" kind of thing for (am)oled displays...
I'll leave the thread just in case someone knows how to magically fix this
You can try this little app here
Just run it a few hours. It doesn't fix the problem totally but it helped a lot in my I9300. Now I barely notice the burn-in that my phone has in the status bar.
Will try it tonight... Thanks for the heads up.
