Hi,
I've been browsing the forum to find this out but I could not find a conclusive answer. I'm using Launcher Pro (not Plus) and I was wondering if there is a way to organize my app drawer to display only my favorite apps?
thanks in advance
Rafa
i dont thinkk you can with launcher pro, which is also what i use.
however i use the app folder organizer light to group my apps. in fact it has replaced the app locker on my dock for accessing my apps.
hope that helps

Many thanks! This is perfect. This launcher is avoiding me having to install a bunch of unnecessary apps.

Here again with another question: is there a better app drawer than the stock one? I saw one with alphabetical divisions, but don't remember where... Any clue?

LauncherPro. Better app drawer, and better overall home launcher. IMO
go Launcher has a nice app drawer.

That sounds a little bit like the drawer that LG put on their handsets, which has user-definable sections in the menu.
Also, +1 for LauncherPro.
An excellent little app IMO.
I already installed launcherpro and I like it, but its app drawer hasn't more functions than the stock one (you can simply hide some apps) it just looks cooler .
I'm looking for something more customizable, as the one from LG.

You could try ADW Launcher.
But, to be honest, apart from the LG stock launcher, I'm not sure there's anything out that that'll really do what you want.
Thanks step666 I'm starting to think the same thing. So at the moment I'll keep the launcherpro menu with some apps hided.

Adw is a good option if you want to separate apps and launcher pro plus is hardly any better from my limited experience with both ( about 3 days for each)

What some of you seem to be forgetting/missing about LauncherPro is that it's main purpose is not to overhaul the App Drawer - it's not called AppDrawerPro.
What it's designed for, it's very good at IMO.
As for ADW, a friend recommended it to me but I found it to be very poor in comparison to LauncherPro.
Yes, it has more features, especially with regards to the App Drawer, but they're not all that well implemented.

Only works on system apps. Browser, My Verizon, Calculator, GApps, etc.
The new version of Apex Launcher lets you hide apps from the app draw
Thanks I saw that .......guess I should've use search first. Sorry but thank u

What widgets look great on the Nexus 7? Please share your finds here. Cheers!

Widgetsoid2 widgets - very configurable, use background from your gallery for contacts.
Gasks - nice scrollable one for agenda and tasks.
N7 Player
Any Go Launcher shortcut - replace with any png image.
Excellent, thanks!
Does anyone know if there is a Whatsapp widget for counting unread messages?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I use HD Widgets for time and weather. I have the paid version. Not sure what the free one is like.

I use GO Launcher and GO Notifications for unread count. You have to search for the Go Notifications apk since the Play store says not compatible. I can confirm it works with Gmail and K9.

I have downloaded and installed the apk but I can find no sign of it anywhere. Could you tell me where to look for it? Thanks!
Edit: What I mean is that I don't get the option to open the file after install. Where did you find your apk?

I'm kind of partial to the widgets below:
Weathereye (having issues at the moment): http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.citc.weather&feature=nav_result#
Minimalistic Text: http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.devmil.minimaltext&feature=search_result#
Flipboard: http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=flipboard.app&feature=search_result#
Power toggles: http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.painless.pc&feature=search_result#
Simple Calendar: http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.anod.calendar&feature=search_result#
If you want to see what it looks like check the post your home screen thread here.
UCCW - most customizable clock/weather/whatever widget available, check XDA main Themes forum for UCCW thread with 100s of themes
Minimal Reader - for news
Jorte - for Calendar
I use AOKP so no need for power toggles since they are in the dropdown...
Beautiful widgets has a nice selection of weather widgets.
You talkin' to me? GO notify is part of the GO app. If you hit settings and scroll to the right, you'll see notifications (after you installed the apk), click it and lets you set notifications for various things. It's not an app or widget, but does show up in system apps list.

If only they would fix the dynamic sizing option in their 4x1 weather. Using it at the moment until weathereye gets sorted. /rant
Another vote for power toggles here. Works well with the default theme (appearance wise)

I though i would make this thread so that everyone can see what each other's favorite payed/free app is. Feel free to post screen shots and maybe an explanation of why its your favorite.
My favorite app at the moment is (Vonage) It allows me to call and text friends and family in the states for free as long as the app is installed on their phone.

Well, my top 3 fave apps (not in order):
ThumbKeyboard -
Have tried many other keyboards but this is my fave, brilliant response, ability to customise, brilliant auto correct and prediction.
App Cache Cleaner -
Fantastic cache cleaner app, all in one place and able to see what uses most cache and clear it easily.
3GWatchDog -
Yes, data usage monitor is inbuilt, but love the widgets and break down that this app gives, find it very informative.
I could have put Titanium Backup, but that's more an essential app rather than a fave one I use on a daily basis etc.
I have few
App lock
Lock your apps
Wolfram alpha
Helps you with math problems
Tv portal
Watch online shows and movies 4 free

Hide apps from the app drawer?
Well you can do that in stock and also with Nova Launcher.
Stock - Drawer > Settings > Hide Apps
Nova launcher, its in the main menu.
