Hi,
I found "Appzorter" and used it for the SGII.
It does sort app icons, but it still leaves "icon gaps" at the bottom of each page! So for e.g. i have about 4 unused icon slots not used and now my application pages went from 4 to 6!
Is there a setting that just sorts them and gets rid of the gaps? or am i messing up the settings in Appzorter?
Thanks again.
Just found the solution. I needed to override the page size...i.e the number of apps on a page. Now it works!

Just installed Froyo 2.2 yesterday and so far i like it aside from a couple things i miss but its sooo much faster!
Anyways somehow made my bottom bar disappear and now i have no idea how to get into my application page. I'm talking about the bottom part with the Phone icon, Application Icon, and Browser Icon. I think i might have held it to long while i was messing around and it went down and now its gone. Been trying to bring it back for awhile now and cant find out how.
p.s. I tried to post a screen shot of my phone but it wont let me due to being a new user.
Froyo has the ability to hide the app drawer bar and notification bar by swiping up or down on the home screen go to your home screen and swipe down like you are browsing a website should pop back up.

awesome! thank you so much for the quick response!
Is there anyway to add icons to that? I noticed that if i hide that then i can put icons on the bottom but is there a way to add icons directly to that "drawer" as u called it
Of course. Just go to the app drawer and select an app. Keep hold of the app like you would to put it on the home screen and drop it down on the bottom bar. I believe you can scroll through the bar as well. I know for sure you can on Launcher Pro because that's what I use primarily.

What you have discovered is the new scrollable dock bar in ADW. It freaked me out the first time I opened it. By default, it is accessed by swiping up on your screen. This action is very buggy and only works seldomly.
How to change it - go to ADW Settings > System Preferences > Swipe Down Actions > Open/Close Dockbar. Now from your homescreen you can swipe down any where below your notification bar and access this scrolling dockbar. You can drag and drop unlimited apps in it. When you want your normal dockbar back just swipe down again on your screen.
Hope this helps.

Hello forum. I have a two day old Vibrant that's behaving unusually.
I'm trying to change the two middle menu buttons. I goto applications, but when I click menu, I only get "view type" and not the option to change the middle buttons.
I also read about a fast reboot by holding the power button for 8 seconds. When I did this, it powered down and wouldn't come back up. I pulled the battery and it booted into safe mode. It had a little text flag on the bottom left that said "safe mode". I didn't even know the phone had a safe mode.
Anyhow, does anyone have any suggestions on customizing those two middle buttons?
I haven't rooted just yet. I think I may wait for Froyo.

click view type then click customizeable grid
then click menu, then edit, then long hold the app that you want to put in the number 2 spot and drag it there, long hold the app you want to use in number 3 spot and drag it there.
then click menu->save
(the next step is optional, but it bugs me not to have stuff in alphabetical order.)
click menu, then view type, then alphabetical grid
And you are done, really a round about pain in the ass way to go about changing the number 2 and number 3 spot but.....thats all we got
And next time try searching and reading the stickies, specifically this one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732458
go to the second post and look for "CHANGE THE DOCK BUTTONS ON TOUCHWIZ!"
Read through that entire post actually and you will find some great information.
Good luck!
Thank you very much. I searched for how to change menu buttons on the XDA App and I wasn't finding anything. This did it though and I'll read your link.thanks again.

I'm running Gingeritis VIII. When I click on the button (right of the phone button @ the bottom of the screen), it comes up with the web. For some reason, it's not prompting me to change the function or setting of that button. I've reloaded the OS again, and still the same thing. Am I missing something? Can someone tell me how to change the function when I launch the icon?
Thanks in advance.
Update...Figured it out...It's in the Rosie settings.
I did wonder about this for a while till I found it.
I do wish you could set it back to the personalize window though :\ so instead, I just had to set it to system settings.

Sorry to be such a noob after all these years, but there is this tab thingy on the home screen with a few app shortcuts in it that just is in the way. I can figure out how get the shortcuts removed, and how to move the tab to different sides of the screen, but how do I just get rid of it? I don't know what its called or I would search for an answer, and I don't see any mention of it in the manual. I just want to nuke it. How?
Long press the back key, lower right soft key.
It's for your multi Window apps.
You have been thanked! :victory:
This only removes the tab, if you aren't going to use multi-Window the pull down the notification and swipe left to scroll the toggles and disable multi-Window.

Is it just me or is it kind of annoying that because they left out the menu button from the phone they now need to show it at the bottom of the screen for apps that depend on it being part of the phone??
Kinda seems like the iPhone 4 to 5 issue where the app only takes up part of the screen and the bottom is left to show that stupid menu line...
Couldn't that have made it horizontal instead of vertiacal to take up less space and make it more appealing???
/rant off
With custom roms there may be a fix to that. I also think it's annoying but don't worry soon enough it will be fixed depending on what Rom you put on your one. Hope this helps

Anyone having difficulty moving the camera app from the bottom row of apps? Every time i go to move it, just copies it instead.

You have to have the app draw open and move it there and you should be good to go.

Ready for a bit of an annoyance? You have to do it from the App Drawer. Even more annoying? You have to move it out before you move another one in, otherwise you get a folder and you have to open the folder to remove the original (in other words it doesn't swap the icons, just creates a folder with both)..
Also - it is a bit annoying not having a menu button. Modaco's framework will allow you to long press back (or double press, don't know for sure) for menu. There's also work being done on a custom kernel which makes the HTC area on the capacitive button sensor another button for menu. There's also this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191626) which was done for another base (doesn't work on ours, changes some other things in Settings that shouldn't be changed and didn't seem to enable to setting - which leads me to believe ATT went further out of their way to remove it then some others), but I'm looking into the changes that were made to bring it to our base too. (unfortunately simply toggling the method always on didn't worked as I'd hoped, but suspected)
I've already shared a build.prop modified to remove the 3 dot menu bar, but this leaves you without a menu in some apps which is a little annoying. Hopefully I'll get long press back for menu figured out though for att's stock rom.. if it's uber important to you, most of the int'l roms already have this incorporated
Thanks for the information on how to remove the app from the bottom menu bar. I never use text messaging, so was quite annoyed by how it was always stuck in there. I put Viber in place of Text message app.
The lack of menu button and wasting more space on the screen for that function does annoy me too. They should have just make that HTC logo a soft button. I don't think they can add another button on HTC logo with a software though.
There's already a custom kernel available that has madebthe HTC logo a third button
