App icons missing from homescreen - Ornate TrueSmart

When i'm in the system (non-oui) launcher and i drag an icon of a system app to the top to remove it, i get an error that it can't be removed. However the icon still disappears from the homescreens for some apps. The app is still visible in the app manager in settings and an icon can be added to the oui interface. The app isn't disabled
Can anyone tell me how i can get all invisible app icons back in my homescreens? I have a 1gb/8gb 2100mhz developers edition model with the latest stock software.
As a temporary solution i've installed an app drawer app...

In app manager find the launcher and clear its data.this simply refresh the launcher and make it create lost icons again.

Does anyone use folder organizer

its a brilliant app, however there is one feature i still cannot figure out/dont know if its possible. I like the feature that allows you to place shortcuts in the notification menu. pretty basic. but everytime i do, the ugly ass default icon shows up in the bar, even if i apply a default/custom icon to the app.
does anyone know how to change the notification bar icon for those shortcuts?
What launcher are you using? I'm using launcher pro and have two folder organizer links on my dock, one for my android tools and another for internet stuff. The launcher lets you customize the icons for anything in the dock by long pressing on the icon/app. Give it a try.

im actually running bar control, i have been for quite a while, i just really want to be able to set my own icons. i mean folder organizer allows you to associate custom icons to apps, but for some reason it doesnt resize the icons to fit the notification bar

What ROM are you running at the moment or SE firmware?
That can determine if you can get the app drawer back or not?
And, how did you delete it?
Andriod 2.2.1
andriod 2.2.1 cyanogenmod 6.1.1
Or simply reflash or backup apsa on astro and restore.

I've done this plenty of times, im using adw Launcher so this could be different for other launchers
Long press on your home screen, Launcher actions, then select open/close App Drawer.

Easiest way would be to install a different launcher.
I believe you can also add a shortcut of the app drawer.

[Q] App drawer folders?

Is there a way to put app icons from the app drawer to a folder to the app drawer itself? I tried using several homescreen replacements but i really like how the SE default feels, feels premium! Thanks in advance

I hardly understood what you said and concluded that you want to set icons for folder like the icons in app drawer are
for that you can use any of these two softwares one is free other is paid app
You can change icons of software by using first and by using second link you can change icon of folders ...
To change icon of software get -
Desktop VisualizeR
To change icon of folder get -
Folder Organizer Paid
Folder Organizer Free
Else get this light weight launcher and its really very fast responcive and low memory consumter...
360 launcher
I hope it will help you....
Go launcher, or touchwiz 4.5 works on all roms. And has app drawer folders

"Poof" like app for Android ?

On my iPod Touch 4G, I really like the 'Poof' app available in Cydia. It allows the app icon to disappear from the springboard. You can type the app name in search bar and it appears (You can turn that off too).
Is there any similar app available for Android ? I searched alot but haven't found one.
I am running JellyBean 4.1.2 CM10 tytung's ROM on my HD2.
i'm running cm10.1 with apex launcher. I just hide icons of apps I don't want to show in my app drawer and then use the google search bar at the top of the screen to find hidden apps by typing their name in or saying open "app name".

I tried Apex Launcher, it was slow and consumed more battery than CM10's default launcher Trebuchet. You running it on HD2 ?
Trebuchet is getting a 'hide apps' feature soon too. The maker of Trebuchet posted it on his Google+ page along with a load of other features.

Use 'hide it pro' app from play store to hide anything from your device. It's also available on the ios app store
Sent from my HTC Salsa C510e using xda app-developers app
Installed Hide It Pro but didn't worked for me. Now installed Nova Launcher, and now I am able to hide apps. Plus its very fast and smooth than any other launcher.
Thanks for the help guys.

Newly installed APPs

Hey Guys,
I have been using the Mate 20 pro for a month now and I was wondering if anyone knows how to activate that option where newly installed applications are sent straight to my screen rather than remain in the drawer until I create a shortcut manually. I cant seem to find the option in the settings.
Thanks
Yes you use Nova launcher, then you can switch it on in the Home Screen Settings section. ?

This settings for Home shortcut is there if you use Drawer home screen style, not Standard. If you use Standard home screen style all newly installed apps go on the Home screen, because there is no drawer.

I'm using Nova launcher, I have this switch off because I arrange all my applications in the drawer in to folders, tools, social, banking ECT. And frequently used apps on the home screen.
