I don't think you can do this, but maybe try nova launcher prime? It might have that feature...

Sorry but that is for touchwiz onlY

You can download Nova which lets you organize apps into folders in the app drawer.

Unread Notifications Indicator

Hey guys do you know if there is an app coming out that displays the number of unread notifications on the app icon, for jelly bean?

Try GO Launcher EX with the GO Launcher EX Notification plugin.
Both Nova & Apex have the feature, might only be with the paid version though.

This is what I was going to suggest, I know with Nova you have to download a "plug-in" app for the function.
Well I tried go launcher and I didn't like it, I will look into nova, I am considering developing it my self as I am a programmer so we will see how this works out first

Personally I'm using Nova Launcher (free).
I hope you can develop it as good if not better as Nova Prime (paid) and make it available for FREE
I will see, next week I'm ordering my laptop so gotta wait for that to arrive

So I'm going to build my own indicator, because just for notifications you shouldn't have to pay and the two options (nova and apex) are a little laggy on my phone :/

[Help] Problem with apex launcher in JB sorcery.

I can't long press on anything. Can't add widgets or apps from the app drawer. Can't long press to open the wallpaper chooser. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Check Apex settings - settings behavior - quick actions activate (yes)?
Galaxy Nexus 4.1.2 stock
It sounds like you may have locked the desktop. Just go into the app drawer, and under the three-dot settings option, choose unlock desktop.

OK. Both of you guys were right. Locked desktop and quick actions. Enjoy your thanks and I really REALLY appreciate the help.

App folder

Maybe this question is stupid. Is there any app that can put apps in folder? Like we can do in go launcher. I search for app but all I found is widget for puts app in a folder. Sorry for my English. Am I posting this in correct forum?

App drawer. I can do it in home screen. But I want do it app drawer. Is there anyway?
Sent from my LT28h using xda app-developers app
Unless you use another launcher, no.
So can u recommend launcher other than go launcher? It uses too much of memory.

I haven't used a custom ROM in months. I don't know any other anymore that have it...
I just need a launcher. Not a ROM.

Search for PRIMO Launcher in Xda forums.
You cannot create folder but you can create a separate tab like in Apex Launcher pro.
I have attached the one, I am using. You can search for the latest one in the Forum.
Thanks for the soft. It is also good. So only go launcher can do that? But I don't like it. It uses all of my memory and slow down my phone like anything

There is a plug in the app hub that comes with the launcher. Check in the app hub on your home page or search in the play store for the apps related to espier launcher ios7.

Just look at other apps created by the same company, they have status bar, dialier and lockscreen, etc.
If you want a keyboard that look a lot like iOS, you can try A.I. Type, one of the included theme is pretty accurate. I would use it more for the Windows Phone theme, but it lacks gesture typing.

Help needed plzz

Use Nova Launcher, there's a mode where you can choose sorting of apps in app drawer.

I'm not really sure what Nexus interface looks like but I'd recommend using Go Launcher Ex
It's a user friendly, very smooth and most importantly very customizable launcher
You can make it look like anything you want with endless themes to choose from, along with making folder, sorting, hiding, custom arranging options. Not to mention screen scroll and transition animations.
Give it a shot, you won't regret it

Possible Nexus theme you might like (again, I don't know how nexus interface looks like, I just liked this theme on first look ) : https://play.google.com/store/apps/...erexthemes.ultimatenexus7golauncherexprotheme
Don't forget to hit Thanks if it helps
I will try
