    Put your finger on the shortcut and hold it there. When you see the trash can drap and drop. Then all gone

    Seem to be finding that removal of shortcut icons from the main screen fails IF on another screen page you have placed the related widget. Has anyone else seen this ?

    For example, I have the default music player on my home screen. IF I place the music widget on my left or right screen and then return to the home screen and try to drag the shortcut icon to the trash, it fails. It vibrates when I select it as expected, the trash turns red as expected, but the icon fails to delete.

    Anyone find the same ?

    Cheers,

    Uh, sorry. You won't find the same because I've just now realized how sensitive the drag is for a successful delete.

    Later,
