one of the best features of Themer is the ability to link a folder than automatically aggregates your Most Used & Recent Apps.... is there an app, or preferably just a widget, that automatically does the same thing, apart from having to use Themer?
Search the play store for "AppKicker", it looks like what you're looking for!

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...
Hi!
Friends, I'm new to the forum and am looking for some ROM that has the option to hide icons, music, files, etc.
Smartphone see more and more as a personal computer, but always have a friend from work, personal friend, a family that wants to move out of curiosity on the smartphone. So look for ROMs that have the option to hide apps, photos, videos, music, files, or all that this smartphone. Example: You want to hide the game Angrybirds for a child to not see him and be done with the device's battery. The ROM would choose to hide the icon so it does not appear in the list of applications and only be accessed through an explorer.
Has anyone thought about it?
Does anyone know of a ROM that has this option?
Thanks,
Roka
Try look for an app on the market. I am sure there is something out there. I don't think (like 99% sure) that a rom doesn't include this. Have a look for an app.
Normally in cyanogenMOD there is an option to hide apps in the app drawer that you don't use often. They are not deleted but are hidden when you simply press app drawer, although they are only one click away from be seen.
CyanogenMod uses ADWLauncher not the default launcher by Google.
download adw launcher from the market. or flash cyanogen mod which comes with adw installed. open your app drawer and click menu. it will say create new catalog. create 1 then choose which apps u want in your hidden catalog
Hi, has anyone had the issue where there is no icon for play books or play movies?
i have a stock one x unbranded. You cant uninstall the apps just their updates so i cant remove and re add them. Anyone know of a manual way of adding icons? They work fine if opened from Play. its minor butt annoying.
Thanks

It's certainly annoying.
If you long press on a homescreen, and choose to add a shortcut (rather than a Widget or App) then you can select "Books" and create a homescreen shortcut to a specific book.
If you uninstall Google Books, and reinstall it from the Play Store - making sure that "Auto-add widgets to homescreen" is selected in the Play Store Settings, then that will create a working shortcut on your homescreen.
Only way to get a shortcut in the App Drawer is to ditch sense and use a different launcher. Must be a Rosie/Sense Launcher issue, maybe something to do with the fact that the label in the App Drawer has a different name to the label on the homescreens - it's probably getting confused? Wouldn't expect a fix from HTC any time soon. Maybe Google can fix something on their app...?
Try using AnyCut off the Play Store...it allows you to create shortcuts.
This is a temporary limitation in Android that will be fixed in a future software update as soon as Google finalizes the underlying architecture.
Ok i give, where does one find app iconsets to use with the widgets? i tried a couple i found on the play sotre, but as far as i can tell they only work with the launcher (like Nova or Apex) and are not usable for picking icons in Zooper. Unless there is another way of putting an app link in a widget that i have not figured out yet. I've been having to use text links and would like to actually use icons.
I was wondering the same. I have one icon pack that zooper will let me select from, but i have yet to find another that will let me pick from it when i'm choosing a bitmap. The only one is kitkat concept or something like that. I may check to see if any others from the same dev do the same later tonight if i remember. It is a paid theme, but none of the other paid themes i have will do the same.
This comes down to the devs of the icon sets supporting a certain android intent. Basically what's happening when you are going to select a bitmap, Zooper asks the systems "Ok, I want to get back a bitmap. Who can do that?" and the systems responds with the "select your app" dialog, that represents all the apps that can. If the author of an icon set included this option in his app it will show up here. If it doesn't you could use something like ThemeX to extract the icons you want from the pack to your sd card and select it from there.
I'm looking for a launcher that will allow me to add apps into a categories. Most importantly I need a way to see which apps haven't been added to a category, like an 'other' group. If that's not available a function that moves apps directly between category groups would work too.
Smart Launcher is the one for you. Go grab it!

Sounds like Aviate does this pretty well and - AUTOMATICALLY. It also has some other creative tricks. Try it.

Thanks for the suggestions, but I'm interested in manual app categorization and some way of keep track of uncategorized items.
EDIT:Buzz launcher gives me what I want.
EDIT: Apex and Nova! Don't know why I overlooked these.
