I was just wondering if there were ways to create dedicated pages like page buddies, where the shortcuts on the bottom would also change to either recent apps or desired/set apps.
Thanks

I loved advanced launcher when i had my vogue. It runs alongside any other launcher, only adds some features i can't seem to find anywhere now, especially the ability to group apps in the drawer into folders WITHIN the app drawer itself...thus, no long lists of apps to scroll through. I was also able to temporarily hide apps that weren't used, putting them into a hidden file. Available to reuse whenever i wanted. Is there any way to bring this to 2.1 or Froyo? Here is the link to the original post of irrenhaus... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540880 (of few of his screenshots below)
or just import utilities portion?
I guess it is possible to include the launcher utilities into another launcher...

...irrenhaus launcher utilities ( like submenus in the launcher) in the adw launcher properties...:
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
(post #879) ...but has anybody attempted this? or is anyone with knowledge willing to try to import it into one of the currently popular launchers that are incorporated into CM6?
really nobody can point me in any direction??
not sure if this is what your looking for, but i posted something that may be related to your request. I'm guessing that advanced launcher is different than ADW.Launcher. if yes, don't forget that adw allows for an extra set of menus by doing an upward swipe over the 'app drawer' icon.

i'm thinking that QuickDesk and/or SmartShortcuts may be of help.
quickdesk basically creates a desktop that is visible after a long press on the search button. you can can access this desktop at any time.
smartshortcuts allow you to 'group' applications, bookmarks and/or contacts.
the link above has some screenshots.

Hey,
im trying to do a nice theme and what id ideally like is the option to have on the main page to have shortcuts to folders containing just specific items such as games/utils/general apps instead of linking to the full app catalog and having to sort through.
at the min im just using one of the main pages thats full of games and it looks untidy so id like to sort it out
cheers
Touch the screen for a prolonged period of time and it should pop up a menu with "folders" in it
As above or get Smart Shortcuts from the market....
or search for apps organizer in the market, this allows you to create folder and add any app you want to them. from there you can use these folders as widgets
there's this "folderorganizer" in market...... lite is free, but pay for full features...
First of all I apologize if there is already a thread for this. 30 minutes and about 200 google searches later I have not found what I'm looking for.
Basically what I want to do is create custom folder icons for the folders i have on one of my homescreens. For the sake of organization and saving room, I've grouped app shortcuts into folders, but all the folders look the same. I would like to change the folder icons. I downloaded Better Cut thinking that would help but maybe I'm just not doing it right. Any suggestions or tips will be greatly appreciated.
Let me know if screenshots are needed to further explain what exactly I'm trying to do.

You using Launcherpro? That lets you change icons, if not you can try Desktop Visualizer. I just use Smart Shortcuts then create a shortcut to my shortcut lol
I've been using "Apps Organizer" by Fabio Collini. It includes icons and works really well. Instead of creating folders, it allows you to categorize your apps and then add the categories to your home screen as a widget. It also lets you "star" items, so that you can have only the apps you use most often in each category be listed first, or be the only things displayed.
There is a minor delay when you click on categories that have a lot in them, but I find this a great way to manage my apps.
Hope that helps.
Apps Organizer is doing exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the help.
Is it possible by any chance to have one of the screens with apps/icons and you can scroll up and down through them?
E.g You have a screen labelled media, and you have some apps, and you can scroll up and down? I think I saw it in one of the threads in this theme section but I seem to have lost it :/
Thanks
Has anyone found a way to change the shortcuts that appear with Page Buddy? I find it annoying that my phone automatically populates these shortcuts. I would like to actually put useful shortcuts there. For example, S-Pen compatible apps for the S-Pen Page Buddy. Not these random games I'm addicted to (and, apparently, I'm playing whenever the S-Pen is out, even if I don't actually use the S-Pen to play these games).
