I know there's an option to add folders on the homescreen. But, can you organize your apps using folders at appdrawer?
I'm a GO Launcher user on Gingerbread and i'd love to know if the default TouchWiz Launcher can do the same :~
Ah, maybe someone who has a Galaxy S3 could post some screenshots?
Thanks =)
Yeah, you can (brilliant!). You have to set the view type to "customisable grid" (press menu in appdrawer), then press edit and drag the app to the folder-icon at the bottom of the screen. This organises your apps into folders.

The icons in menu cant be deleted. However, most alt launchers will let you hide icons in the menu.

Aha, what is with apps/games what i downloaded can I move them?
Your app drawer contains all apps on your phone, usually in alphabetical order... some launchers allow you to hide apps, some allow your to create folders within the drawer to group them, some allow you to re-order the drawer..
Personally, I prefer to leave all the apps in the drawers and create shortcuts to them (by dragging and dropping as you mentioned) onto the desktop and categorising the pages.. ie, I have a page of favourite games, a page of tools/ utilities, a page of media related stuff!, and a central home page with a clock and meridian music widget on it.. and finally, and page with a full page calendar widget on it.
I'd like to know if it's possible to create a proper shortcut to launch widgetlocker; I know there's an activity shortcut when adding it to desktop, but I'd like to start widgetlocker using the swipe up action of adw launcher and in order to do that it needs to be a simple shortcut to the app.
Anyone knows how to do that?

muy buena app
Hi, just Did that on my Defy. with Go Launcher, but should be the same with ADW
go to settings , select wipe up or down, then choose shortcut, there you should find an entry Widget Locker Lock now. Choose it. and you're done.
Thanks, but as I said before adw launcher lets me choose only from the installed apps (the ones which appear in the app drawer), therefore I cannot select "widgetlocker lock now".

Hi, that's because on ADW it's not in the apps section. Don't click "applications" on the main shortcut selection list. Just scroll down.
I just upgraded from a T-mobile Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant SGH-T959
running android 2.2 Bionix-v 1.3.1 by Team Whiskey.
On the Vibrant rom, When I click the apps icon on the bottom my apps appear and the apps scroll vertically.
Is it possible for this Samsung Galaxy S ii SGH-I777 to set to also scroll the apps vertically?
I believe you need to install a launcher such as ADW or Launcher Pro to scroll the app drawer vertically.
If you open up the settings for the app drawer there is an option for view type, select alphabetical list and you will have vertical scroll.
settings for the app drawer? Where are the settings for the app drawer? How to access. I do not see anything called app drawer settings. Or are you talking about the Launcher Pro program?

open the app drawer and press the menu button. there is an option to have a list, instead of the grid. while the list does scroll vertically, it is individual, and not a 4x4 grid that will scroll like in sense. you can always try a 3rd party launcher, those will over ride the TW launcher and give you what you're looking for

Apps/Icons in drawer cannot scroll vertically unless you use a different launcher.
However you can change the app drawer to scroll vertically if you want to
change the view type to "Alphabetical List" where it has the icons on the
right side with full names of them in a row.
Go into the app drawer and click the menu key and select "view type" to
see what I meant.
I would suggest NOT to use a different launcher because the stock one
is a lot faster and very much smoother than any launcher I have tested
so far. (and I have tested just about all of them).
1. Is it possible to replace homescreen with app launcher? I mean when you press home button, homescreen shows up, is it possible to force phone to open app drawer instead of homescreen when you press home button?
2. Or/and maybe there is a launcher which shows all your apps not alphabetically but by date and also with ability to arrange the apps however you want?
Go launcher sounds like it is what you are looking for.
In gesture settings you can set home key action to open app drawer instead. It also has app sorting option for by latest date first and earliest date first (and alphabetically of course). It also allows for you to drag icons into any order you would like in the app drawer.

Doesnt work, works only if I'm already in the homescreen and then press home button, just then app drawer shows up :/ Also tried Apex launcher, same thing..
Use something like Quick Launch to open an alternative app drawer. There are free alternatives to this app, it's just the one I use. Alt Drawer is the app drawer I use, you can find it on XDA. I open it via long-press of search.
The MIUI launcher automatically puts all apps on the home screen, and by default adds them in the order they're downloaded. With some tweaking you could get it the way you want. There's a modded version for all roms somewhere.
Edit: You can sort Alt Drawer by last installed, alphabetically, or most used. Use an app to set it to open when you hit the home button and you should have what you want. It has a lot of other neat options too.
How can I copy my homescreen icons/layout from Apex to Themer?
What I want is:
1) Copy the homescreen grid shortcut items, folders, widgets.
2) Copy the grid layout, so if it's 7x7 in Apex, it will be 7x7 in Themer.
If I could do this just once that would be great.
If I could add a shortcut to copy them over whenever, that would be better.
If I could mirror, so anything deleted, moved, or added on one would be done to the other....

Hi,
You can change the grid layout in Themer by long pressing on the homescreen - Advanced - More - Desktop - Desktop Grid Size.

Is there any way to copy over the icons and wigits / folders? Maybe an app does it? I've looked at a bunch, I'm guessing it's not developed.

We don't think an app will do this, but copying your icons and widgets manually won't take too long You can then save your layout so you'll never lose it

I've been testing apps and launchers, done a lot of reconfiguring.
Many of the features of a Launcher are also available as separate apps, so it seems the most important is stability, special features, active development. Right now Themer has no search in app manager (which is being redone) but there are a bunch of app manager apps to use instead, none that I'm happy with so far, but the only way to find the perfect setup is to do a lot of reading and testing. So, the app manager that ships with a launcher could be a selling feature, but is not a reason to not go with a launcher.
Unfortunately, few devs code for one-hand use with a dark background / light text in all apps. Most apps have the toolbar on top and the keyboard on bottom, makes no sense to me, everything should be where the user has his finger most.
