Motorola Atrix 4G :: Edit/change The Label On A Shortcut?
Jul 26, 2011
Does anyone know if there is a way to edit/change the label on a shortcut? I know how to do it using Go Launcher but was wondering if there is a trick to doing it in Motoblur?
On previous droids and the Bionic you can create a home shortcut called 'gmail label' for each gmail account. On my razr this is not an option, only a generic gmail shortcut that forces me to keep switching between accounts. Why did Moto delete this feature? I tried the other email app and the widgets for 'scrolling inbox' or 'universal inbox' to see if maybe they would allow links to each account but they dont even work for gmail!
how to edit a label in a contact's details. If there is a label called Mobile, how can I change to Mobile (my place) ?.This option is present in my Nokia N79 and Nokia 5320 expressmusic.
Am having a problem in E-7 that it does not supprt EDIT LABEL option in Contacts since I use many numbers in a single entry.We have edited and remove your email address on your post, personal details like IMEI/Mobile number/real name etc.
In the Settings, Applications, I noticed the Double Tap Home Launch function. I've tried using it, and it doesn't launch anything. I've tried setting it to camera, messages, and text...but nothing. Should I exchange the phone?
Random icons create an additional homepage on your Atrix HD? I tend to keep my phone's home pages as minimalistic as possible, only have one, and use Circle launcher on that one page to access my most used apps. Occasionally my phone adds a shortcut to a random app on a second homepage, sometimes its an Icon for an app that no longer is installed on the device. I really like the ability on the Moto devices to customize the # of start screens, the swipe up features of the locked icons at the bottom of the screen for a quick glance is a really nice touch, works great.
I am unable to add contacts or edit contact groups. I can create a new group and get as far as checking the check boxes in add contacts to group but it will not update.
How can I edit/replace apps in provided car dock menu? I know there are several 'add app here', but, like provided radio tuner is not much good here in AUS so I wanted to replace it with 'tunin' that works well, and, has local radio stations.
I visit a web page daily and I would like a direct shortcut to it from my home screen. Unfortunately the actual URL changes every day, and the website takes care of the details by changing the URL from a generic one to a specific URL based on the current date. All I have to do is navigate to the generic URL (by clicking on the website's menu), and the correct URL is formulated.
I would like to add this generic URL to my home screen. However, when the page loads it's already too late to save a shortcut to home screen, because the URL has changed. And I cannot find a way to edit the URL before the shortcut is created, or later.
Phone : DEFY without Blur (India model)I created a shortcut to a gmail label to my home screen. After some time the name of the label disappears, but the label remains.Functionally it works, but if I have more than one label shortcuts, only confusion will remiain.
I know how to add and remove tags but I added several tags manually (they weren't existing contacts) and now every time I try to add a tag, I see those manually added names in the list of thumbnails and I cant get rid of them?
I have lablels assigned to my alarm clocks. In Gingerbread when the alarm went off it would dispaly the label on the screen.Are the ICS labels only displayed in the notification area? I could swear one time I did see the label appear over the large clock time on screen. I can't duplicate it though. See image.
I got my atrix 2 yesterday and it was set up in Erie PA at the Best Buy and when I post things to FB or my weather widget, it says I'm in Wesleyville PA which is not too far away but far enough to make a difference. How do I change this? I've trashed the widget and now just use accuweather but the FB posts are irritating me.
I have had my Atrix 2 for two weeks now. But ever since I have been at work. Now im actually getting a chance to play with it. So far only a couple of questions. On every font I have (widgets, text, email, home screen), It shows up as a cursive type. I thought when you purchase a phone it is bold normal type. change this font back to regular bold style. How do you have defualt or normal font? This cursive style is way to hard on the eyes for enjoyment.
I recently updated my Motorola Atrix 2 to the new 4.0.4 OS. Previously, I had my phone set up so that I had to enter a pin # if my phone had been asleep for 30 minutes or more. Otherwise, if less than 30 minutes, turning the phone on (from sleep) went directly to the home screen (no swiping or unlock needed). Under the new OS, I cannot seem to keep this. Now, there is a 2-step unlock process (selecting key icon, and then unlock option -- lock icon -- in order to get to main screen). The only way to avoid this annoying 2-step process (that doesn't really add any security) is to turn off all locks, but I would prefer to have some security (i.e. through pin lock after 30 minutes asleep). Anyway to disable this annoying 2-step/swype feature when turning on phone without disabling all locks? If not, is there anyway to go back to my previous OS?
I'm trying to change which photo is displayed for certain contacts. Right now it automatically puts facebook photos, I'm trying to change it to a different picture. I go into the contact, click edit, tell it to use an existing photo, I crop the photo how I want it, click save, it shows the new photo in the edit screen, I click save again and it defaults back to the facebook photo.
When I first got my Atrix whenever I sent and email from it is had a tag at the bottom of the Email that saidSent from my Atrix now it says connected by MotoBlur.Is it possible to change this and if so how do you do it? I have looked through the phone options and cannot find it anywhere.
If I swap two Atrix phones, I assume that swapping the SIM cards won't change the MotoBlur account that each phone is configured for. So, how do I change which MotoBlur account an Atrix is linking to?
Does anyone know if/how to change the storage location for music? For photo and video you can do via a setting from within app but I don't see such a setting from within music app.
So assume I would like to associate my phone with an entirely new email account. The prior gmail account I was using is beginning to be inundated with spam and it has got to go.After searching I've found this: go to home. Click grid. Click all apps. Click email. Enter a new email, pop etc. There is no option for anything of the sort and from that point the grid button doesn't do anything. This makes very little sense.Is my phone permanently associated with that gmail account? Can I drop it and add a new account or not?
i went to at&t store to get my contacts added to my new Atrix and when i got home i could not change anything on them i went to edit and they all said "PRESET CONTACT from at&t (name of contact)! Preset contact information is not editable on this device.(Phone#)"is there any way to over ride this or what should i do?
Whenever I connect my Atrix 2 to my car stereo via bluetooth, DoubleTwist comes up and immediately starts playing the last album I happened to be playing on it. I have several music players installed, and would like to configure the phone so another is the default. Any way to do this? I've tried browsing to a music file and pressing it to bring up the "Complete action using..." dialog, but the app I want to use (PowerAMP) is not listed among the choices. Am I out of luck on this, or just restricted to those apps that show in the popup?
Is there a way to change the pictures that are displayed when Gallery is launched at its main menu? The pictures which are being displayed when I open gallery are old uninteresting photographs and I would love to be able to change it to show either the most recent photos or photos that I select.
Is there anyway to change the picture of a contact group? I like sorting my contacts into various groups and use the feature a lot. It would be nice to give each group a different picture instead of the grey head outlines that are next to each group. When I go to Edit Group, it only lets me change the name. Is it possible to change the picture or at least turn the picture off?
I have checked all the settings and find no way to change the font size on sent or received texts. Very aggravating to have to find my glasses everytime I receive a text!
Is there a way to change/improve the notification of voice mail. Compared to all my previous phones, the notification system is awful. All I want is simple specific audio alert and obvious visual notification when the phone wakes up, a feature I had on most of my previous basic cell phones.
The instructions here:[URL]No longer work once you update the Atrix to the new SW.Instead, replace step #4 in this article with "press the up and down volume keys concurrently - a menu will come up" The rest of the procedure is correct.
