[Announce] QuickEdit - Change your Quick-launch icons easily (N9/N950)

[XenGi]

You can use QuickEdit to change the Quick-launch icons on the bottom when you swipe half the way up the screen from any app. Just start the app, click on the Quick-launch icon you want to change and then on the new app. That's all!

Sure you will ask "Why should I use this?", there is Shortcut already doing this. Sure, but Shortcut doesn't work with PR1.2 and nobody seems to update it and because I wanted to learn Python I thought I could do a kind of Quick-launch editing app. The result is what you see here. Myself, now with some minor Python skills and this handy app.

I'll be grateful for any feedback.

Maybe put this under the correct forum subcategory? Specifically, Nokia N9 / N950? Thanks!

[Fallenzone]

shortcut not work .... YES

[XenGi]

Maybe put this under the correct forum subcategory? Specifically, Nokia N9 / N950? Thanks!

This is an application, so I think Talk -> Software -> Applications is a good category. If there where a subcategory for Harmattan I would have posted it in there but there isn't.

I thought the Talk -> OS / Platform -> MeeGo / Harmattan category is for platform specific stuff and the Talk -> Devices -> Nokia N9 / N950 category is manly hardware related.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

[thedead1440]

it's ok on it being placed in the applications sub-forum. its just some n900 users who are against any n9 apps being placed in these sub-forums as a form of superiority complex.

[dumpystig]

Correct me if I'm wrong.

OS/Platform MeeGo/Harmattan would have been better, but no biggie ;)

[almamo]

I'm also the opinion that you placed your app in the right subcategory with a correct title (mentioning N9/N950).

The problem is that the forum structure isn't very clear. The correct name of the N9 OS would be Maemo6 Harmattan, so apps for that phone shouldn't have to be put in a special subcategory. MeeGo at this point is rather a "marketing-name" and causes more confusion than any benefit.

@thedead1440 isn't that wrong with what he says... ;)

But whats way more important: Thank you so much for your application! It works great and was a missing a lot since PR 1.2 update. :)

[XenGi]

So far many people downloaded QuickEdit and most of them are happy with it.

Somebody at the OVI store pointed me to a annoying bug. If you've set a quick-launch icon and deinstall this app you will be unable to reassign this quick-launch icon to another app.
I've not much time atm but I'll fix this asap.

And for everybody who already bought the app, thanks guys! You're great! This helps me continue my studying.

[baem90]

i have this problem. since i remove wazapp application, then this problem occur, please fix this.. tq

For all people having this issue, here is a little fix that resets all quick-launch icons to the defauft browser. Than you can rearange them as you like it.

Download the script here: quickedit_0.99.2-1_fix.sh (http://pub.xengi.de/quickedit_0.99.2-1_fix.sh)

Just run it in a terminal with "./quickedit_0.99.2-1_fix.sh".

@baem90: thx for the feedback.

[baem90]

can u give me step by step? i tried
devel-su
password
./fix.sh

not found. sorry, im a little bit newbies for running command. :(

[XenGi]

Sorry I forgot to add the actual script to my post.

Download the script quickedit_0.99.2-1_fix.sh (http://pub.xengi.de/quickedit_0.99.2-1_fix.sh) to your device and put it directly in the MyDocs folder. That's the folder you see when you attach the device to your computer.

Here is the easy step by step:

1. Open the terminal
2. Type the following command to execute the script: "sh /home/user/MyDocs/quickedit_0.99.2-1_fix.sh"
3. Now you should have all 4 quick-launch icons pointed to the default browser.

[baem90]

i tried, i get this

then i reboot,

Try this:
Before running the script, go to home/user/.local/share/applications
There are 4 files delete quicklaunchbar.desktop (0,1,2,3,)
Then apply the script quickedit_0.99.2 -1_fix.sh
Reboot.

Thx for the hint to delete the symlinks before recreating them. I forget to add this to the script.

I still can't figure out what is broken after you uninstall an app that is linked to the quicklaunch.
I fixed all files that will be touched by my app and even tried to reinstall the uninstalled app. Nothing worked.

So please can some harmattan guru look at this? Here is the problem in detail:


Change the symlink from /home/user/.local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar0.desktop to /usr/share/applications/exampleapp1.desktop to change the first quicklaunch icon.
Uninstall exampleapp1 the normal gui way (longpress + 'x').
Now you have a broken symlink quicklaunchbar0.desktop and this quicklaunch icon won't appear anymore.
Reassigning another desktop file (/usr/share/applications/exampleapp2.desktop) to this link (/home/user/.local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar0.desktop) will do 2 things:

The link is correct and should work but the quicklaunch won't show the fixed icon. So no effect here.
You will get a cloned entry of the now assigned exampleapp2 in your application view (I have no idea where this comes from).


All files that I know that are influenced are correctly configured:

Quicklaunch symlink /home/user/.local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar0.desktop links to desktop file of the installed app exampleapp2.
Desktop file under /usr/share/applications/exampleapp2.desktop is present and correct.
Optional symlink under /var/lib/apt-desktop/entries/exampleapp2 is present, links correctly to the desktop file and is ignored by QuickEdit.
QuickEdit shows all 4 quicklaunch icons with correct targets.
Quicklaunch only shows 3 quicklaunch icons. The first one (quicklaunchbar0.desktop) is missing.



There have to be some system file that I don't know that get's broken when you uninstall an app from the quicklaunch. So if anyone has an idea what file this could be, please tell me.

Thx. This did the trick. I will upload an updated version this afternoon. So you can get the version when ovi store qa has passed. I will post a fix so that you can repair your quicklaunch bars today too.

- - - - -

UPDATE:

I just uploaded QuickEdit 0.99.9-1 to OVI store. This version smashes some bugs that were eating your Quick-launch icons.
For all of you already lost some Quick-launch icons here is a guide to bring them back to live.


Download the Script quickedit_0.99.2-1_fix.py (http://pub.xengi.de/quickedit_0.99.2-1_fix.py)
Put it in the MyDocs folder (root folder if you connect your device to the PC)
Disconnect device
Open a terminal and type:
python /home/user/MyDocs/quickedit_0.99.2-1_fix.py
If the script tells you to reboot, do it ;)
Now your Quick-launch should be okay. All repaired icons should link to the default browser


Just a note for new users: If you're using a version before 0.99.9-1 always remember, to not uninstall apps from your Quick-launch!

Doesn't fix it and new version is not in the store. Post the new version up here.

[XenGi]

Doesn't fix it and new version is not in the store.

This should have fixed it. Please post the output of the following commands and maybe we can find what is special with your situation.

cat /home/user/.config/meegotouchhome-nokia/launcherbuttons.data

ls -l /home/user/.local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar*

The new version could take up to 6 days before you can see it in the store.

I forgot something in the script. Download it again. It should work now.

[Kinggene]

I forgot something in the script. Download it again. It should work now.

It propmted a reboot this time but the problem was still there after the reboot.
Can you just post the new app here?

[XenGi]

It propmted a reboot this time but the problem was still there after the reboot.
Can you just post the new app here?

No I can't just post the app, because of 2 reasons.
First, this is a paid app. If I post it here, nobody will pay for it.
Second, if you get a working solution by just instaling the app I will never fix your problem and if someone else got the same issue I can't help him/her.

So please send me the output of the commands I posted earlier and we will see if we can fix your problem.

Well i think the problem has to do with I no longer see any apps in the quicklaunch bar. They are instead - the four apps meant to be in the quicklaunch - duplicated on the home screen.

That's exactly the behaviour I know. This should be fixed after executing the fix and a reboot. So if you did the steps I posted above and still have this bahaviour, send me the output of the commands and I can try to help.

Well i think the problem has to do with I no longer see any apps in the quicklaunch bar. They are instead - the four apps meant to be in the quicklaunch - duplicated on the home screen.

/home/user/.config/meegotouchhome-nokia/launcherbuttons.data

duplicate icons:

home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 0.desktop=launcher/0/10
home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 1.desktop=launcher/0/14
home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 2.desktop=launcher/0/75
home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 3.desktop=launcher/0/55

as it should be:

home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 0.desktop=quicklaunchbar/0
home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 1.desktop=quicklaunchbar/1
home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 2.desktop=quicklaunchbar/2
home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 3.desktop=quicklaunchbar/3

Try deleting the launcherbuttons.data
(make backup launcherbuttons.data)

restart.

The problem is that all icons appear disorganized (default).

[Kinggene]

It just started working all of a sudden!

[XenGi]

What about this in Version 1.0+ ? It's just an idea and not really usable.

More than 4 Quick-launch icons (Youtube) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejWaFivKG4g)

[chasetheangel]

home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 2.desktop=quicklaunchbar/2
home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 3.desktop=quicklaunchbar/3

Try deleting the launcherbuttons.data
(make backup launcherbuttons.data)

restart.

The problem is that all icons appear disorganized (default).

This actually solved the missing quick launch buttons. I edit the lines manually.

I'm also having the same problem with Kinggene. But for my N9, I previously had this problem with the application "Shortcuts".

With the application "Shortcuts" I assigned 4 applications and it worked. But when I updated to PR 1.2, I can only see 3 icons below and the 2nd application (Same with Kinggene) is not appearing in the quicklauncher and has a 2nd double application in the home screen.

So, I tried this application. I bought it in the OVI store but it's still the same. I have a duplicate application in the homescreen. I also noticed that whenever I change the 2nd application in the quicklauncher, it's always having a duplicate application in the home screen. Whatever application that is.

So I tried the step above, it's still not working. I already uninstalled shortcuts pro and tried to reinstall and reboot. Still not working.

[XenGi]

Is there anyway just to make the stack higher and make 8 quick launch icons instead of just the normal 4?

I haven't checked that but I don't think this is possible. I will investigate this more in the future and maybe I find some cool solution. My idea was to make the Quick-launch bar scrollable so you can scroll through 8 icons but I think this is imposible too.

@markmarkmrk First you have to uninstall shortcut and shortcut pro. I have no idea what this app does in detail, so it could interfer with QuickEdit.
Than start Quickedit and setup your icons. If that fails apply the fix for version 0.99.2-1 and reboot. This should fix all your problems. If not let me know.

[mrtank]

Yeah nice. now i have 2 camicons an 2 for the app "purelight".

plz help.

[XenGi]

Yeah nice. now i have 2 camicons an 2 for the app "purelight".

plz help.

Just use the new version 0.99.9. That should fix this automatically.
Purelight makes some trouble. I don't know. For now it seems that it is the only app that causes trouble but after a reboot it should work.

[ibrakalifa]

i cant update it? Why? Store suck, zzzz

ln -s /usr/share/applications/browser.desktop /home/user/.local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar3.desktop

This should reset all your icons to the browser. Than you can reassign them.

"permission denied"

any idea??????

[XenGi]

You have to do it with root privileges. Try it that way:

echo rootme | devel-su -c 'rm -f /home/user/.local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar*'
echo rootme | devel-su -c 'ln -s /usr/share/applications/browser.desktop /home/user/.local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar0.desktop'
echo rootme | devel-su -c 'ln -s /usr/share/applications/browser.desktop /home/user/.local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar1.desktop'
echo rootme | devel-su -c 'ln -s /usr/share/applications/browser.desktop /home/user/.local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar2.desktop'
echo rootme | devel-su -c 'ln -s /usr/share/applications/browser.desktop /home/user/.local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar3.desktop'

im on pr1.3, broken quicklaunchbar, and fixed by this after reboot! thank you. :D

So QuickEdit runs on your PR1.3 device?

[omar451451]

I had the shortcuts app installed on PR 1.2 then after updating to PR1.3 it just didn't work so i uninstalled it then installed Quick Edit but then this also doesn't launch so i just wanted to know whether there is any solution for this? And i am sorry as i could not give you the output of the command that you asked me to as i am not a geeky person and i fear using the terminal until and unless all the steps are mentioned clearly.. Thank you

[matias92]

This program screwded me up everything.

I can't see my quicklaunchbar, I wrote the commands in the Terminal

rm -f /home/user/.local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar*
ln -s /usr/share/applications/browser.desktop /home/user/.local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar0.desktop
ln -s /usr/share/applications/browser.desktop /home/user/.local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar1.desktop
ln -s /usr/share/applications/browser.desktop /home/user/.local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar2.desktop
ln -s /usr/share/applications/browser.desktop /home/user/.local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar3.desktop

And all I got were 4 new browser icons that even if I change them the Quick Launch Bar won't show them up.

You can just enable the N9 repo, so you can just update your n950 to PR1.3 :)

[XenGi]

You can just enable the N9 repo, so you can just update your n950 to PR1.3 :)

That doesn't work 100%. I will try it when I've time.

For all you guys having problems. Stop typing commands in your terminal if you don't know what they do. The current version (0.99.9) of QuickEdit fixes all known Problems itself. Just start the app and if it tells you to reboot, do it. That should work in 99% of all cases.
And if that doesn't solve your problem, send me the output of the commands I asked for. That's the only way I can help you.

[baboo]

Hello, my quick bar is broken and only one icon is shown, here the output of the codes.

http://db.tt/akIIvnki

http://db.tt/WmJwNipI

Is the app starting? If yes it should tell you you have to reboot. Just do it and everything should be okay again.

thx for the info. Can you post that in the thread too so that other with the same problem can get help too?
yess, it said that i should reboot to be fixed ,i did that and the message is gone but it is still broken even after several reboots.

EDIT: by the way ,i tried your inputs to reset the shortcuts to 'web' and now i have 3 more web icons in the menu

The lines you should watch are these (/home/user/.config/meegotouchhome-nokia
/launcherbuttons.data):
home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 0.desktop=quicklaunchbar/0
home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 1.desktop=launcher/0/43
home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 2.desktop=launcher/0/42
home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 3.desktop=launcher/0/44

They have to be this:
home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 0.desktop=quicklaunchbar/0
home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 1.desktop=quicklaunchbar/1
home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 2.desktop=quicklaunchbar/2
home\user\.local\share\applications\quicklaunchbar 3.desktop=quicklaunchbar/3

Edit your file with nano or vi if this is not the case. Then reset all icons to the browser like you did again and reboot. Now everything should definitly be working correct. If it's not, then this is a PR1.3 issue I can't help you with.
But I know people running PR1.3 without any problems. So maybe you just have a very uncommon setup.

[foredoomed]

Hello,
i got a strange problem with quickedit. :/
I had Phone, Wazapp, Camera and Internet on my quicklaunch bar and it worked nicely. But a week ago, when I deinstalled Wazapp to install an updated version, the Wazapp icon simply disappaered and now stays black in the quicklaunch bar. It doesnt matter if I change the icon via quickedit to the new Wazapp or another program, the second icon will always stay black and i wont be able to launch whatever application i put there. I already tried to remove and install quickedit again, without success though. The space where I once put Wazapp stays black. Any help on this, please?

Hi,

I just updated my app Quickedit to the latest version for the hope that it will fix my quicklaunch icons which was messed up after I uninstalled an app from the launcher. I don't want to use terminal anymore for commands, I just want to fix it simply. Can you please help me? I contacted this thread because my comment on the store won't help me for sure.
No matter what app i put to the quicklaunch, it isn't showing. Thank you. I need your reply as soon as possible.

P.S. Even after I rebooted my phone, still no changes happened. :mad:

^^ Well its just one terminal command...If you do it; it'll restore your quicklaunch icons and reset the position of icons on your homescreen...

cp -R /etc/xdg/meegotouchhome-nokia/launcherbuttons.data /home/user/.config/meegotouchhome-nokia/

P.s. You just have to run it as root in terminal...

Just wondering, is Quickedit fixed for PR1.3 yet, or did this project die a long time ago?

Its not workin for me....

If you read cautiously through the thread, you will see that it is working, you just have to do some simple things if you run into problems.

like a reboot? Or messing in configfiles with terminal? Ill give it a spin, see what happens.

Edit:
It took a little tinkering, but for me it works now on my PR1.3-running N9 :)

I replaced the symlinks in ~/.local/share/applications/ as instructed in this thread,
opened quickedit,
rebooted as quickedit told me to, (I guess just restarting homescreen might work too?)
used quickedit to change the layout of my quicklaunchbar,
and than restarted meego-touch-home using homescreensettings.
That did the trick!

I would suggest this to be in a post-install-script or something, might save us all some time, and since this is a paid app, it would be nice if it worked out-of-the-box :)

Anyway, thanks for the app!

Great app! Hopefully you are still working on this and get a scrolling bar.
