You should be able to add two shortcuts. I just tested this and it worked. I'm using Apex launcher though. I just reread original post, and noticed it said widget, not shortcut. I tried with widgets, worked fine.

Is it possible you have a SmartAction enabled that is changing this setting?

"Stopwatch and Timer" app. Free on the Play store.

Truer words were never spoken (written?). I looked at several and ended up with aCalendar. They have a free and a paid version, and I'm still on the free version (2 months +), because there are no ads, just slightly reduced functionality. Will likely go to paid version sooner or later, since...

I have app upgrades turned off, so I guess that's why I'm still on an older version.

I took the update, and my Maps shows as version 6.14.4. "My Places" shows up in the drop-down menu, as does "Navigation."

[1] Yes [2] Yes I ran across this when I first got the Charge in June. The GB update last week put everything back, so I had to re-do it. Only issue is the "Audio Tuning" feature no longer works, so I can't disable the Shutdown and Startup sounds. I ran across mention of and app called...

Try this: Dialing Code String for DROID CHARGE and FASCINATE - Android Forums

Installed this morning. GPS definitely improved, too early to tell about other functions. All apps seem to be working OK. I did notice that the "wait" and "pause" functions in the dialer had apparently changed. I had to edit the number for my work voice-mail, because it substituted a "7" in...
