How to customize the fixed, bottom app dock in the home screens

[Ophio]

You know how you have the fixed shortcuts to the phone, contacts, messaging, internet, and the apps? Well I was messing around with my phone and somehow the contacts icon disappeared. Anyone know how to bring it back? I searched the internet and found how to customize apps for the lock screen. But I have already done that. I found other solutions saying go to apps>menu>edit and to drag icon to desired place. However, when I do this I don't see the dock. Even tried this with the customizable grid option. I see options for create folder, info, delete etc. I was trying to replace the contacts with another shortcut since I can get to contacts from the phone shortcut. Figured it would be easy so I deleted the contacts shortcut from the dock. Now there's a gap between phone and messaging. I can move the other icons in the dock around and rearrange them, but I need to get Gmail on the dock. Thanks!:-[
