You should only have 3 and all concerning choice of wallpaper. It looks like your ICS might be corrupted.

I'm not sure why you both can long press on the screen and add a widget..ICS got rid of that. Link below is from moto's very own website. Did you guys do a FDR after converting from GB to ICS? I know it is a pain, but resolves alot of issues.

Because he is using go launcher. The stock home launcher does not bring up list of widgets by long pressing but other launchers do.

Blwn, bring up your list of widgets from go and scroll to "power control." The icon will look like a gear box and if you glide over where the text should be, it will say Power control. That would be the stock power control widget that allows you one click ability to toggle gps on and off. The one thing I did notice is that it only toggles the standalone GPS services on and off and leaves all the other GPS services alone. So if you have google location services on, using that toggle switch will not toggle it off or vice versa.

Please remember that the GPS radio is only actually on/running when you are using maps or navigation and it will show up as a little tiny snow flake looking icon on the tool bar. de-selecting which GPS options you use in the system settings has NO EFFECT on whether the gps radio is actually running...these settings are only telling the gps radio which services to use when it is turned on by using maps or navigation. Leave the ones you want to use checked in the system, then open maps and look at the tool bar and you will see the GPS icon show up. Close maps and you will see the icon dissapear which means it is now turned off.
