Hi all,
Just wondering g if anyone can help.
For some reason yesterday my gallery started showing all homescreen apps as folders in the gallery. They all appear as single folders with 1 image, the app icon image. So now instead of the 2 or 3 folders I used to have I know have about 80!
Does anyone know how to fix this or what's caused it?
I'm using nova launcher pro if that makes a difference.

Its not really a fix but more a work around:
Download quickpic from the market and highlight the folders and select "hide" then they won't be visible in the normal gallery I think you can uninstall quickpic once they're hidden

Does it happen only with homescreen apps? I don't know nova launcher, maybe it keeps a cache with the images of homescreen apps.
Otherwise, do as indicated in the previous post, i've yet to find a better gallery than quickpick.

Some how I now have 2 gallery icons in my app drawer and they both open the gallery. Using root explorer I went into system/app and I only see 1 galler.apk. How can I remove one?

Did you flash anything or try and add another gallery?
I just restored a Nandroid and thats basically about it. I have no idea why I have 2 icons now. I can only find 1 gallery.apk. Any ideas on how I can remove one of the icons or is this just a freak thing.
If you go to manage applications, menu, filter, show all... Are there two galleries? If so, delete one and reboot. If this does not work, hopefully someone else can chime in. do two show in titanium backup batch?
nice profile pic
Are you going on the cruise?
I know this has happened to me before when I flashed a ROM without a clean wipe on MT3G
Ok when I go to applications, manage then filter all it only shows one gallery there. Driving me crazy lol

OK this is a new one on me. All I did was flash a deodexed rom and now for some reason I have lost my Browser icon/shortcut. Now it gets even weirder, it is only missing from TouchWiz. I have installed GoLauncher and it shows up there. Now I know that I could just continue to use GoLauncher but the fact that I can't get the Browser launch shortcut to show up in TouchWiz bugs me. Would anyone be kind enough to explain where I screwed up?
What replaced it? If it's still in the apps drawer, you can put it back in. Apps drawer-menu-view type-customizable grid-menu-edit.
Nope, not in the app drawer or in the dock. Nothing replaced it. The browser.apk is still located in the system/app folder however it just does not show up anywhere when running TouchWiz.

Check for app called "Web" instead of Browser
There is no app in the dock or drawer called web or internet or browser or anything with a globe as an icon. It is for some reason just not visible in TW.

Have you tried reflashing, or even restarting?
not sure if its in the right section.
When i first got my gs2 it was on 2.3.3 now im rooted modded etc one feature i miss is the ability to make seperate folders within the app screen itself not the home screen any ideas how this could he achieved on adw launcher ex or has that been scrapped since rom updates etc have moved on. just liked the idea of tidying the apps inyo relevant folders im a bit ocd with little things like that.

Organised Drawer on the market is the nearest I can think of.
It's more of an app drawer replacement I think, but will do the job.
You still can as far as i know...
From the app drawer: Menu Button -> Edit -> Drop applications onto "Add Folder" at bottom of screen -> Drop newly filled folder into app drawer.
I haven't used any gingerbread rom past KI3 so maybe something changed, but I just upgraded to ICS and the options is still there so i doubt it.
Can you not just touch and drag
An app over another one to create a folder?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
On the ICS stock launcher home screen, yes. In the app drawer, no. In Touchwiz, no.
Isn't he using
Adw launcher?
Edit- NM I've just tried it doesn't work. What about trying go launcher ex I know that allows for folders and a lot more customisation.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Yeah you might be right. I haven't used ADW EX since before the recent big updates though. Previously when I tried it folders weren't possible in the app drawer...
One of the major reasons I stuck with Touchwiz actually.
Just thought I'd share a bit of personal experience.
Those of you who have root access in there devices may have noticed icons missing on there home screens. If you are wondering why this is due to using Titanium Backup to move apps to the SD card. This only happens with certain apps, usually only the ones that can't be moved from the devices settings. To fix this simply move said apps back to internal storage and all will be well.

Other "move 2 sd" apk
Not just Titanium,i use Link2SD and it's the same,or force apk not 2 work,or widgets,just restore apk 2 phone.
BTW some task killers 2 can force widgets not to work 2.
I haven't had much experience with other apps like Titanium cos I'm very new to smartphones and my Arc is the first REAL smartphone I've had. Thanks for your info. I really have so much to learn.

lost icons found
The homescreen loads before your SD card. To get your icons back;
go to SETTINGS...select ALL
select the launcher (in my case SENSE) and force close.
The launcher will restart and all your lost icons should reload properly.
i am having this trouble too
haha didnt knew what to do thnx guys.
