forgive me for being abrupt, but the reason I came on here was to find out how to remove the polaris viewer icon from the bottom taskbar, which ended up there because I was trying to free up more space. Forget that it's the Polaris Viewer icon, I just want to know how to move any of the icons from the bottom taskbar
This is a little puzzling. The following suggestions are based on my looking at the Enlighten's manual, which can be found
here.
I'm guessing your version of Android is Gingerbread (2.3.x), which you can tell by looking at Settings/About Phone, where it says Android Version. I'm not sure, but I think a lot of Gingerbread phones don't let you modify the icons in the bottom tray. What happens if you long-press the Polaris Viewer icon (i.e., touch and hold it for about a second)--does anything happen? Do you feel the phone vibrate a bit, and are you able to drag the icon? If so, then drag it to the garbage can.
If nothing happens, then tell me--what was in that bottom tray location before the Polaris Viewer icon got stuck there? Did Polaris Viewer somehow displace another icon? It's always possible the phone's Launcher software is a little buggy--I've seen this kind of thing before on my old Droid Incredible. Two things you could try:
1. Reboot the phone. That is, power it down completely by pressing and holding the power button until the shutoff menu appears, and select the option to turn the phone off. After it's off, then press the power button again until it turns on, and wait until it boots up fully. Has it corrected itself?
2. If #1 didn't work, then you could try clearing the data from your Launcher or Homescreen (the name can vary with the device), which is the system app that manages your homescreens. Keep in mind that clearing this data will make your homescreens blank again, and you'd have to set them up again the way you want it with whatever shortcuts and widgets you had arranged before. To clear the data, go to Settings/Apps/All Apps, scroll down until you find an app called either Launcher or Homescreen (although it could be something else that's similar-sounding), select it, and tap Clear Data. Then go back to your homescreen and see if the Quick Keys along the bottom tray have reverted back to normal.
