Sorting applications [SOLVED] - Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers

Hi people
In the drawer the applications appear tidy (I think) by date of installation.
For easier search, can you order them alphabetically?

HTC home screen sliding panel improvements

Hello.
I like the HTC home screen sliding panel, but some things I am missing and some things I dont need on it in the standard configuration which is delivered with the Rose.
I was missing:
- graphical notification of all sms, mms, missed calls, voice mails and emails like in the normal windows panel and working with these events from this row
I didnt need:
- sms/mms and email notification in separate rows (wasting of place)
- favourite homepages
- music player
All you need to do it, is to change one row in the HTCSlidingPanel.home.xml located in the folder AplicationData/Home/:
<Plugins Order="CClock;CHome;CWindowsLive;CAppointments;HTCWeather;Settings" CPRFileName="HTCSlidingPanel" SMSMMSOverride="false" EmailOverride="false" >
You wil find this row easy.
Beside this I removed the "background picture changing option" and the "ringing tones changing option" from the Setting row of the HTC home panel. I really dont need it so much, not necessary to be on the home screen.
You can do this by changing the registry in:
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/CHome/Settings/
Registry field called: Pages - simply delete the names of the pages you dont want to have in the Setting row on the homescreen (in my case the backgroud picture and ringing tones), it is very easy.
Hope this will help.
search icon ???
Dear members !
Does anybody know how to put search icon to desktop ? Like HTC-diamond or touch-pro has it ! One guy sad that edition for smartphone doesn't have it, but sorry, I am not happy with that answer?! If I demonstrate for example: I search aplication to search surname "Novak" client through outlook calendar and contacts and notes....and all other aplications which phone has! It would mean a lot to me!
Best regards, Dejan U.

Apparently this is not built in.

Can change all quicklink icons except Facebook icon.

I've only been poking around in this amazing device for two days now, and thanks to these forums and the amazing mods submitted by the developers, I have been able to change all of the icons except one. Even though the Facebook icon is updated under the start menu, I cannot for the life of me get it to change in quicklinks. My reading of the forms has led me to the registry, and yes the startup icon points to the right path. I've noticed (and this may be the crux of the problem) that every time I reboot, sense creates a new start icon_htc_facebook png and qtc file in the Windows folder. My question is, is there any way to get the new Facebook icon to appear in quick links or am I stuck with the default Facebook icon? Again thanks to the developers for all the cool stuff and advice which is been posted on this website. PS I'm looking forward to a fully working version of android for this device. Keep up the good work guys.

[Q] KA20.1 App Drawer 4x5 issue

Hi
I've got a problem with the app-drawer in Krabappels ICS rom 20.1 (similar to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26959034&postcount=2504 ): When I open it, I have 6 windows with 4 columns and at least 5 rows, while the 5th row is barely visible (maybe the first 3-4 lines of pixels of an icon), sorting is "last installed" and it's the same with "alphabetically" and "last used".
If I chose my own sorting, I've got 8 windows and a 4x4 matrix, so I can see every app. Funny fact: I never used this before, so there can't be any positioning infos for the icons
I tried deleting the cachepartition in boot recovery (including Dalvik-Cache), deleting app-caches and history via Android Assistant, but it's allways the same. And I also didn't find the mentioned "Clear Cache" button. Is there a way to "tell" the app-drawer to use either more windows OR a 4x4 matrix for the automated sortings?

Sorting: alphabetically, last used, last installed:

Hi.
I updated to KA21.1 with a fresh install (formatting system, cache, data, etc.; made a factory reset) and the App-Drawer Issue is no longer. But I got another Question now: How can I add a folder to my Home Screen? There is one Folder named Media in the bottom bar, so there is no problem with showing folders in general, but when I try to add shortcuts, there is no option to make a new folder.
And theres a second, more serious problem: The right button doesn't show a menu any more, I can't get into the device settings!
I don't think, krabappel is looking into this forum, so could anybody please tell him to answer my questions? Since I may not post in the developers area ...
**wtf, I have to wait 5 minutes for an edit? ohhwww ... this freaky forum is NOT userfriendly
Draw one app from the appdrawer to your homescreen and put it on another app and then you get a folder
Sometimes you must it figure it out by yourself and posting in a hurry a new thread, you can ask it in general chat in Q/A topic and about your 1st post, go to settings then apps click on all, scroll down till you see xperia home, click on it and erase data, dont ask where just see it by your own and that is here more then enough explained buddy, just search

Hi.
Thanks. I read that with the folder somewhere (perhaps samsung touchwhiz?), but I didn't know, KA21 was now using that, too.
About the app drawer: Since I made a fresh install, it's working fine now. I did a search for that and found the respective post, but I misunderstood the part where it says "Xperia Home >>App<<", I thought it was the entry in the device settings "Xperia (tm)", and there was no way to clear any cache ^^ But now I know, where to look at. I also found a way to enter the device settings, circuitous but it's ok.
Thank you very much again. Sometimes the only thing one needs is just a cue

[Q] Google play music widget for notification bar

Hello everybody,
This is my first time posting, so I am pretty unfamiliar with everything. I hope I am posting to the right place and that this is not something that has already been discussed. I am considering rooting my Sprint Galaxy S3, and I had a question. Is it possible to permanently put this version (1st attachment) of the play music widget instead of this version (2nd attachment)? I want to always be able to see the 1st version, but when I have too many things open in the notification bar, the widget changes. Is there a way to modify this. I use google access music and would like to keep using the app, but just have a modified notification bar widget. Thanks everyone

Please help with app shortcuts on home screen!

I know that there are much tutorials and forum threads about this, but I couldn't find anything helpful for my case.
I'm customizing a ROM (AOSP 4.4.2) and need that some third party apps appear on the home screan each time I reset the device to default - just like phone app or stock browser.
So I'm not developing new apps where I could resolve it with permissions in the manifest and intent in the main activity - this are already compiled third party apps and as I need the possibility to update them through the market I can't do reverse ingeneering and editing them.
I would be thankful for any help.
