Root Question about HelixLauncher and NexTheme ESE81 R2

Hello,

First post, although I've been reading these forums for a minute now.

Just installed my first ROM, NexTheme ESE81 R2. Everything's working snappy, no problems whatsoever.

Just a simple user question using HelixLauncher. I want to configure my shortcuts on the bottom a little more. Specifically, I want to make it so that when I push the phone icon (which is one of the shortcuts pinned to the bottom) it goes to the "recent calls" list, rather than the dial pad.

I know I have to set that in "Preferences", "Shortcuts (Advanced Only)", and somewhere in there (either Application Class or URI), but I don't know how to do that.

Could someone kindly point the way? Thanks~

BTW, I was going to post this in the NexTheme thread, but it was also a question about the HelixLauncher, so I made it a separate thread. Mods, feel free to categorize and move if necessary.

David.
 
One work around is to use an alternate dialer app. I use DialerOne and its default screen is half dial pad and half recent calls list. Also has a lot more features than the default app (and is free too).

And if you don't want the half-dialer in the recent calls list view, you can select the option to hide the dialer in Dialer One's settings.
