Simple Calendar Widget lags on first time (when I scroll into that Home Screen Pane). Any way I can force the phone to keep that app in the main memory? (Similar to making the Launcher Stay in the RAM).
Add this line to build.prop
sys.keep_app_1=com.something.something.. Just find the proper package name and replace it there
com.something.something
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I placed the apk in the System/App. do I put the name of the apk here in place of com.something?
I looked at Android/Data and there in no com.xxx.xxx which is telling me if it's the simple calendar files.

Don't want to install additional apps.

Is there any solution? It's frustrating. I want ABC arrangement, but when I install some new game and its name starts eg from A, I have to get every app outside of the folder, to the app drawer, then RE-arrange the apps by name. So, please help. ;-;
BUMP people? Noone? Or noone cares?
Do you mean when you click on applications and the apps are all spread out on different pages?
If so just click the call button on your phone and select list view and your apps will be in alphabetical order.
Also i recommend this app i have it myself
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.abcOrganizer&hl=en
don't folders have a list alphabetically setting?
For me, Appzorter Lite has proven to be the best. It's primary job is to alphabetically sort the apps on the launcher, but if you go into settings you can also have it arrange the apps inside your folders. It can also fill out gaps if you choose to manually move some applications to another page on the launcher. Very nice app!
I mean this:

To arrange the apps inside the folders by name(a-z). I tried the Appzorter, but it screwed my other apps inside Touchwiz's appdrawer. I only want it for folders.
I realised after some trial and error that you need to use Appzorter's sort as well as fill gaps features, then restart the phone. I believe that should work. I don't think there's an app or drawer that allows you to add folders and only sort apps within the folders.

Folder Organizer is the app you want.
ok, im trying to hide this app, from the app drawer by editing the manifest.xml file, and i did it, to be specific i just remove this line from manifest.xml "<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />" but i want to hide it, and still have the option to open it...
i tried to start the application using titanium backup, but it doesnt give the option to open app...
im trying to do it by editing manifest.xml. i know there apps to hide anothers app..
if you have any idea of how to, ill appreciate it...
(im not an expert on this, and i dont even know if im asking in the right forum)
Hey, did you come across a solution? I'm facing exactly the same problem right now: The App's gone from the drawer but no longer executable by no means.
Sorry for bumping this old thread, but I endured reading about 10 pages of search results without success.
Thanks in advance!
You can use my app "App Quarantine" to do the job. You can disable the app in question (so it's no longer in the application drawer) and re-enable it as you want. Therefore you could use the home screen widget for quickly launching the app.

Hey, thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately I'm searching for a solution to get along without any 3rd party app.
Which means, I want the app to be "set invisible" before even installing it on the phone. I'd really like to know, which file of the apk has to be edited in which way to achieve this.
It'd be totally fine if it simply didn''t appear on the drawer.
Any other ideas?
I have an idea.
I have replaced the icons with a completely transparent .png image and recompiled the apk.
Remember you should not change the file name of the original icon, just replace the content.
I have used apk editor pro for this work.
The app will be in the launcher or app drawer but it will remain invisible.
You should also replace the app name with 3 to 5 spacebars.You can remember the position of the app in the app drawer.
Everyone will see you tapped on a empty space and a app started
I have tested this.
So you can be sure.
One more thing
If you see any folder like mipmap_anydpi_xxx in /res you should delete it

So where should I post the reply?
I hope is a right place to add this question...
Im searching for app thats allow to change the icon and app name in main menu and home screen. free od paid version - doesnt matter
I know that are launchers like: adw, launcher pro and nova but they only hide the app !
of coure there are few apps in market like: app namer editor, app renamer but they only create the shortcut on main screen.
I can edit *apk files oraz files in data folder but all this possibilites are useless and hard to done by someone with no skill and needed to be done every time when ROM reinstall
Im searching something nice and easy to use: Choose app --> edit name and change the icon, save and quit.
OK the question was already put but here is what I want
there is an app RoundR. I have downloaded it and installed it from the google play.
Now
I want it to put it in the system app. That's ok, notification can be hidden ok, but I want it to be removed from the app drawer too... so to take part of the system... like in MIUI v5.
Ideea?
I am probably just missing it, but is there a way to make folders in the app drawer screen? I have the default google folder but I can't seem to create my own (or remove any apps from the google folder). Thanks.

Pretty sure you just drag one app on top of the other to create a folder. Then just drag other apps in to add.

Right, but it seems like that can only be done on the home screen panels, not in the app drawer.

Go to app drawer, tap menu, tap "view apps by" and select "user customized".
While you're still in app drawer tap menu again, select "edit/uninstall apps"
Now drag an icon onto another icon to place them into a folder together.
While in edit mode you can open a folder and drag all the apps out of it to delete the folder.
