1) Guide you've quoted is actually something like ready-to-use script that configurates your widget for 1 command. For any other commands/purposes you can't use this script anymore.

Making similar widgets is pretty easy. After you've created a new QBW, choose the size,picture(it should be in the special folder,mentioned in step 4 of the quoted post) backgrounds etc. Then press "edit command", in the 1st line type the name, in the second copy/paste following:

Code:

run-standalone.sh dbus-send --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.HildonDesktop.AppMgr /com/nokia/HildonDesktop/AppMgr com.nokia.HildonDesktop.AppMgr.LaunchApplication string:

After : just type the name of the application you want to launch. For e.g. to launch witter app,just write witter.
Bear in mind some native build-in apps like phone,e-mail or conversation have irregular names(can write if you need).

Just save it and you get the widget done.

2) I didn't find a solution to hide that icon. But I didn't dig much into it.
