Can I delete superuser.apk without unrooting?

Basically can I do it without messing anything up? I hate that useless icon on menu.

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.

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!

Even better than hiding apps with hide it pro is locking them with it - very useful for apps you frequently need but don't want people to sneak around like facebook etc.

Hide app?

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.

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....

[Q] How do I hide an app (running or not) from my application manager ?

Hello Everyone,
I'm using "Vault" which is a program where I can hide sms, calls and photos on my GS3 I9300, and I'm wondering how I can hide it from my "application manager" because I was able to do it when I was using Iblacklist on Iphone
Thank you guys
Don't know about the app manager but u can hide the app from app drawer by pressing menu button in the app drawer and select hide applications.......

When you're in the application menu:
Menu>Hide Applications>tick the apps u wanna hide
