Does anyone know if there is an app that saves the desktop settings of the Samsung S2 (ie shortcuts to apps on the 7 screens)?
It is annoying to redo the favorites everytime I flash a new ROM.

..Titanium Backup? Saves app shortcuts fine for me, just not widgets.

Just backing up your launcher settings (with Titanium) should do just that.
Okay. I have titanium premium. Which of the list options do you restore? Is it under system or apps and what will be the name of the Launcher option containing the saved settings?

In titanium backup go to "back up section" and back up "Twlauncher"
Does titanium backup on launchers also work with widgets?

Afaik superuser stops any old app from accessing root.. that could cause damage to your software.. why would you want to uninstall?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Leave it there if you have apps installed which only works for rooted phones or a different theme, font etc. but than, why are you rooted? its only an icon...it uses it automatically when it needs to

If you use launcher pro you can hide things from showing up in the app drawer without deleting them

Cheers, Ive learned a new feature, now theres hardly anything left in my app drawer.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I don't bother hiding with launcherpro, it is too much hassle going through the menus to get to something hidden.
That is the one feature I really miss from adw, more than one app drawer.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
You could create a menu set using adw (press menu when app draw open) or just have a screen or two with most used icons on it, then you don't have to really use the app drawer - hope that helps.

Apps Organizer
The Apps Organizier (from Android Market), lets you assign all of your apps into folders (called labels). They are really easy to find!
Why does the app drawer used in custom roms not alphabeticaly sort apps correctly? I end up with blank spots and apps aren't sorting when I choose to do so.
Any ideas?

You would need to install ADW launcher. As I just posted in another thread, this does not work well though restoring certain widgets like Desktop Visualizer.
Is there any application that allows me to hide my apps?? I have seen launchers but I just want an app cause I really love apex launcher pro.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Apex Launcher IS a launcher and you can hide apps with Apex. I'm pretty sure it's the same as Nova.
Apex Settings>Drawer>Hide Apps....

How do I backup ways apps organised (folders) and placement of apps on screen?
Whenever I upgrade rom have to wip all apps etc. But Google lucky backs up apps installed and contacts and I have a software which backs up txts but each time I have to reorganise apps into folders on menu etc.
Is there a way to backup arrangement of apps?

Download nova launcher from play store. It will let you import and later backup your current home screen settings.
Going forward, you will have to use nova launcher as your default launcher.

Is there anyway of backing up my current configuration of organisation of apps using the native launcher ?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Would Titanium Backup backup the launcher and data... so backing up the current screen setup?
Use titanium backup to backup TW Home. Restore only data. You will recover all your folders arrangements but not widget.

Launcher settings backup/restore depends on launcher... Some have the option, some don't.
