Is there any way to disable the search bar in app drawer? I know exactly where which app is. I am open to use adb but not open to alternate launchers. Thanks.

Doesn't Beautiful Widgets come with toggles? I don't see them. I just purchased the app from the Market and can change weather and clock but can't add toggles. Am I missing something?
Which alternate homescreen app / launcher do you have installed? ADW, Zeam, etc? If none then install one and long press on any homescreen in an unoccupied any area to see if you get the desired result.
I am using zeam. Long pressing does not show the toggles on the list.

Just reloaded the app and now can see the toggels.

The slider row on the bottom of the home screen usually contains three icons for Phone, Apps, and Browser. For some reason, the Apps icon on my slider got replaced with the Google Talk icon, so now I can't access my apps from the slider. I think what happened is last night I removed the Talk icon from my home screen and instead of dragging it up to the trash I dragged it down towards the slider.
Does anyone know how to recover the apps icon and put it back on the slider?
Running ADW Launcher?
Go to its settings, change the assignment.
If your using launcher pro, just longpress on the icon that is where your app drawer should be and a box will pop up and it should say change shortcut.
Hope that fixes your problem.

OP is using ADW for sure. Had the same "problem" yesterday.
Longpress the Homescreen and choose "Open App Drawer Shortcut" or something like that.
Now move the icon down to the dock
It's under custom shortcut...

Fixed. Thanks all!
So, I've got a desktop full of images that I use as icons through the use of Desktop Visualizer. My whole screen (apart from dock) is filled with these images and I kind of wanted to get rid of the dock and replace it with one of these icons.
I found a solution to making the dock disappear through the use of ADW Launcher which allows you to hide the dock. It's not ideal since I would've preferred to use Nova Launcher (I'm on CM9 and I love Nova Launcher) but it has no option to hide/disable the dock (in fact, ADW Launcher is the only launcher that I've found with this option).
Anyway, now that the dock is gone, I can use it for widgets (which is basically how Desktop Visualizer works) however Desktop Visualizer does not allow you map "App Drawer" as an action. So basically all this effort has been for nothing unless I can find a way to map the icon to App Drawer.
Another thing I considered was a launcher/dock that allowed you to use custom sized icons for actions (most launchers only allow you select a certain sized icon to replace the default) but I couldn't find anything.
I've tried to search both XDA and Google but couldn't find anything useful.
TL;DR - Need Desktop Visualizer alternative or a way to map one of the widgets to act as app drawer icon.
Thanks in advance.
I need help with this too. Any ideas?
The only way I managed to do this in the past was to use a normal icon and the widget, and overlap them. (In ADW settings there is the option to allow overlapping.)
First insert the app drawer icon (Press hold > launcher actions > Open/Close app Drawer)
Insert your Desktop Visualizer widget, select the icon image, and set the action to none. Then press and hold on it, and using the re-size arrows drag it under the app drawer icon.
Finally press and hold on the app drawer icon, and change the icon to a transparent (empty) image.
You have to insert the app drawer icon first, as that makes it on top.
Its a pretty crude way of doing it, but I don't think there is another way, although I would happily be corrected if there is!
Or you could possibly just put the icon on your wallpaper then use a transparent icon.
In that way, you could have many possibilities in theming your desktop.
If possible, what strings do you need to change in order to hide an app from the notification drawer?
Anybody know if its possible to remove or hide the stock app drawer icon on the Turbo? I don't want to get rid of the app drawer itself. Just keep the icon from showing on the home screen. I know it sounds weird but I have my reasons

Thanks but here's the thing. I'm trying to keep my kid out of the app drawer and shes smart enough to just open the other launcher. So if I can figure out a way to disable it I can use the app drawer app for MIUI And then I can just lock that app. I just want her to have access to what is on the home screen. Got any suggestions?
