[Q] menu icons won't stay sorted - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

On my SGS2 after sorting all my menu icons into groups on different menu screens e.g. one screen for games another for music apps etc, after rebooting for whatever reason the icon are all scrambled randomly around all the menu screens and I have to sort them again, and yes I do save after sorting. Obviously this isn't a major issue but it is annoying, any comments or suggestions (apart from stop being so anal). Thanks.

Be nice if you told us what ROM you are using and what launcher you have installed

You could create individual
folders and put your apps in that

Well I would've if I'd actually changed the rom or launcher, have root ( used cf-root, kernel DUKJ1) apart from that the phone is unchanged.

Yeah already have some folders but they too get scattered randomly, thanks anyway.

Yeah but could you not use appzorter from the market and that would sort your folders alphabetically?

Had this once with tw 4.5. cant remember how I solved it. Every time I restarted the launcher it just messed up the icons

it happens for me too,i got 400+apps but its sometimes annoying but still iam on stock an the phone dosnt hickup even with full load...

Sounds familiar...

I had a similar problem which I fixed by clearing the TwLauncher data (in Settings -> Applications -> Manage applications -> All).
Doing this will cause all the current icon positions to be lost, but it should start remembering them going forward.
I think there was something corrupt that prevented the icon positions from being saved.
Hopefully this works for you.

Some basic phone questions.(X10 Noob)

My battery seems to fly out the door, how do you close down some of the running applications? I don't want to download a 3rd party app just to be able to close browser or mediascape X_X
EDIT: Also, I am trying to delete some apps with Titanium backup, do yall recommend deleting Google talk, Play Now, User Guide and Use Support? And finally there is a toolbar that has 4 pictures (one with a dot and signals going up, one for blue tooth, one with a satellite dish letting off a signal and one that controls the phone, what do the 1st and 3rd ones control? I have no manual with this phone.
Edit Edit: (Lol) How do you set .mp3's for ringtone and notifications(and while we are at it custom wallpaper), and is there anyway to change the unlock process of the phone?
Really, thanks to anyone who answers even one of my 50 questions.

3rd party
On the beginning of the thread you said you didn't want a 3rd party app to close tasks. However you should use something like "advanced task killer". If you open the app you get a list of running apps and you can unselect the ones you want to remain running.
Then you get a 1 click widget that remembers that (un)selection, leaving those apps running and stopping everything else. Very useful.
BTW check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=767849
The beauty of android is the amount of nice apps available!
EDIT: Just in case you don't read that thread through:
careful with LCD Density Changer you need ROOT with Superuser and busybox or your phone will brick
So better to stay away from that one.
Ya at the beginning I didn't want to use a 3rd party app to close tasks, it didn't make sense, now I can't get enough of ATK.
I have 2 new questions for everyone.
One how can I access the internal memory from my pc? And 2 how can I change the background color in menus like settings, messages etc. The blue background is super annoying.

Hidden apps?

Maybe I'm just slow but I've noticed a few apps built into this phone that are hidden from the Sense launcher but not when I use the AOSP gingerbread launcher. I've seen Fb Chat, Quick lookup, car mode, mirror, and I'm sure there are others. Does anyone know why these can't be accessed from the Sense launcher? It seems really weird to me haha.
You can access some apps like mirror and car panel if you hit the bottom right search button from any screen and type "mirror", for example. You can then tap on the app there. I believe facebook chat is only available as a widget...
Is there a list of these hidden apps or apps not seen by sense?
I don't know... Good question. It would be great if someone can post them here. I wonder what other goodies they are hiding.

Just do a search in your phone for 'Chat' and you find Fb Chat.
Fb Chat comes up. Open it.
Winning.
The only other one that I saw not mentioned was "SIM Toolkit." When I tried to run it, a message popped up, stating that "SIM Toolkit is not ready."
I have noticed that in both ADWLauncher EX and Launcher Pro Plus, you can put a kinda cool camcorder icon on your home screen but it doesn't show in Sense.

I'm still looking for the answer to this. I just hit search, type fb, and open it.
Then to go back into it, just pull down the notification bar, and tap it again when I need.
I don't even know how to make sure it stays in memory!
The Fb Chat widget put my phone into an infinite bootloop and I had to reset my phone. So I'm not using that thing again.
ya it would be nice to be able to use quick lookup and flashlight in my quicklaunch think on lockscreen
You can use the app Any Cut to make a shortcut. I've also read you can do it with a file explorer. I did it with Any Cut.

Couple newbie questions from DAGr8's Alpha 2 ICS

1) The haptic feedback on pressing the Home button feels ever so slightly delayed compared to how it was original in GB and the other GB ROMs. Could be in my head. Anyone else experiencing this and if so, know how to fix it?
2) Apex launcher that is included in the ROM seems cool but to put widgets on the home screen it says I need to install it as a system app or have root or something. I have root of course - how do I get it as a system app?
3) When I try to install the Chrome beta browser it's giving me "Error - Error processing purchase" dialog. Any ideas on how to fix this? When google searching this problem it seems like it might be on Google's end and I should just wait it out.
4) People in the dev forum are talking about some multi-dpi fix. I didn't run that since I have no clue what that is or what they're talking about.
5) Also people are saying that the VM heap is wrong or something on this build. I have no idea what that is or how it will effect me.
Okay I think that is all for now. Thanks!

Might be a little delayed, it's a leaked release, so anything is possible. I haven't noticed it. Don't think you're going to fix it.

You move the apk to system/app using Root Explorer or another file manager that has access to the root directory.

Multi-DPI fix are for people who are running their phones with a DPI (Dots Per Inch) that is different from the stock 320 DPI. A lot of people use an LCD Density of 240 which causes some poorly (read Samsung TouchWiz apps) written apps to scale badly on screen, like the dialer. If you aren't changing your DPI then you don't have to worry about the fix. They won't hurt anything, but they're not needed for you.

I'm the wrong person to give details on how the VM Heap works, but the stock ICS leak uses 256 and people have claimed performance improvements by reducing the VM Heap to 128 or 64. I've got it at 128 and it seems to have improved performance, but I cannot say for sure.
You can change LCD Density and VM Heap with apps like ROM Toolbox. You can also move Apex to system/app with ROM Toolbox. It's a rather useful app.

Strange folder on root

Hi guys
So I installed a few different widgets and stuff today off the play store. I only installed ones that had lots of downloads like 100,000+. Installed a few and then uninstalled a few so basically I have installed and uninstalled lots of different widgets today. So now I've noticed a strange folder on the root of the phone just called d. I've attached the screenshot of that folder and also the contents. Does anyone know what this might be?
Second thing I've noticed I also have 2 apps in my app drawer - Appcenter and Gamezone - see attached. There not apps in their own right as I cant uninstall them as there not showing up under app manager etc. All I can delete is the icon form the app drawer - when I try the uninstall of the app from the app drawer it says the application cannot be found- remove from app drawer? All advice appreciated.
The AppCenter and GameZone things appear to be part of GO Launcher... I'm guessing their latest updated today added them to the app drawer.

Is this confirmed? I don't want to unnecessarily wipe my phone.
I also have those two apps in my drawer. And since there are active, but not uninstallable, i don't trust them... I also have the impression those app are eating up memory since my phone looks to be much slower. I did check taskmanager, but see nothing special. How do i get rid of this ? Any help welkom ! Thx

[Q] App list, dialer and other basic questions after Jester's Liquid ICS

I've recently updated to Jesters Liquid beta rom and now to the new 2.7 version if this makes any difference. I used to have a setting on the stock rom that allowed me to view all my apps as a list instead of pages of icons. I can't find this setting now. Is this due to Nova launcher, ICS, or me just not being able to find it? I really, really prefer a list with large text, much like the manage apps list that shows up, instead of a bunch of little icons that all look similar to older eyes that also don't see colors well.
I use Go Contacts ex and it's dialer, but this seems to be the same with the stock dialer. If I program a number to speed dial that has pauses inserted int he number, the call will not go through. It worked on the stock rom, but not on the newer roms. Is there a different dialer I could try or some other setting I can use to make these numbers with the pauses work again? (that's a trick from long ago where you would insert a pause after the phone number and then another number after it, like a password or access code, so that you could get into a voicemail system, etc. by just using your speed dial)
Pop up notification from a phone call. Any way to really increase the size of the text on this? I don't have any contact pictures downloaded, so I need to be able to see the name or number of who's calling. Any suggestions?
The status bar at the very top. I think I've figured out most of the icons, but could use a little help to be sure. Left to right it looks like
Bluetooth Screen brightness Location settings? (does this turn on and off GPS or what?) Refresh (is this to turn off sync features or what does it do) Wifi, Flashlight. How did I do?
I can come up with more questions, but I'm guessing you're tired of reading by now, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
So, 24 hours, almost 200 views and not one response? I must have asked the most difficult noob questions ever, or am just so stoooopid that no one wants to waste their time with me. Wonder which one it is?
I can only help with the status bar question.....
Go to Menu.... System settings .... Interface ....... Status bar ....... Toggles....... Power widget ....... Widget button order.
From there you can see what is selected and the associated icons. I have changed the defaults, so I don't know if your guesses are correct. From the Power widget menu, choose Widget buttons to change which buttons are displayed.

I'm using Apex launcher on Liquid's pure ICS, not Nova on Jester's, but they're more alike than different and you can install Apex if Nova doesn't have this. But either way, try hitting the menu key, then Manage Apps, it should give you a list like you're looking for.

I use the stock dialer, so I'm not sure about Go, but having used it in the past, I'm sure what you're looking for is in there. You might want to see if there's a FAQ section on their website, or go to one of the less technical forums and do a search in their apps section. Alternately, you could try DW Dialer, EX Dialer or Dialer One and see if they better meet your needs.

Try Settings --> Display -->Font Size
or
Settings -->System-->Accessibility and see if the app it suggests helps
or
search for Accessibility in the Play Store.
Also, maybe a different theme or dialer would help.

Everyone's is going to be different.
Go to

I tried it on the stock dialer too. The problem appears to be related to the stock dialer programming. I think the dialer apps I've played with somehow just piggyback off the stock dialer for function.

And just to be clear. If I select Manage Apps, a list of apps does show up like I'm wanting, but that menu is made for stopping, uninstalling, etc. I would like my app drawer button or whatever you call it to display my apps as a list when I'm looking for an app to open. I'll download Apex and give it a spin
It's an inelegant solution but maybe a good start. Download ES File explorer. That has an app manager button that lists everything in text format. Click in an app and it gives you a choice for details or open.

That kind of works. If I leave the app manager open in list view as the last thing in that app, then each time the app is opened I get a list view of apps. It requires pushing on the app and then pushing open, but at least it's a list, so I'm happy. Apex lets me move the app icon out of the way and stick the ES app in it's place, so this will work for now I think.

It's a Sense thing. I think most of what you're looking for is available stock on Sense based roms.
Someone just developed a new one based on the BAMF leak and it's pretty smooth.

I'll look, but honestly, I really don't enjoy switching to new roms. It takes me forever to get everything up and running the way I want it and to learn almost enough to function daily with it. I do like the list view though, so I'll keep an eye on reports of battery life. I did try the BAMF leak and was extremely disappointed with the battery life (running extended battery) and data drops. That was my first new rom (I originally rooted just to get rid of bloatware), and I was complaining about my dislikes on another forum when someone pointed me to Liquid's version here. I downloaded Jesters beta version and loved it compared to the BAMF leak. After having read all the internet articles, I was under the impression that the BAMF leak was the cat's meow. Now I realize those articles are about as unbiased as the national so called news.
Is Santod's new sense rom as laggy as the BAMF leak, or have they tweaked that out of it by now.

Almost no comparison to BAMF. Much smoother. Honestly, not as smooth as Liquid/Jester but data/signal seems more stable and almist everything works.
If visual stuff, contrast and ease if use are issues for you, it's worth a spin. I'm also running Apex. I don't know if that contributes to lag over the native Sense, but it has the features I want.
Yeah, switching toms is a royal pain, but you do what ya gotta do.
