I tried doing a search here and the Market...Does anybody know if there is a widget that acts like a drawer, that we can perhaps but our fav/most frequently used apps in? I'm looking for something similar to the HTC People widget (Style 2), thats a 1 x 4 and you can scroll through.

I searched for this on the Droid X forum and didn't quickly find an answer. I also googled to see if there was any widget that you could place on a home screen to display apps (not hidden by LP Plus), but didn't really find anything I really was looking for with that either.
Moderators please move this if this has been discussed many times and my search criteria was just bad.
I'm looking for a widget for my last home page I need to finish customizing that will give me the ability to look at my App Drawer (the Apps I use frequently and want to display with LP Plus - while hiding ones I don't want to show up).
I accidentally deleted my widget tab from the app drawer and now I cannot access any widgets. Is there a way to recover the tab or create another tab that will see them? Using nova launcher on gs4. widgets are still there in touchwiz, I just cant get to them in nova.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm wondering if there's an app or something I can use to control the chaos that is my app drawer. I keep all my commonly used apps on my Home screens, but when I need to use something less common, it takes me a bit of time to sort through the list and find what I need. I hate that some apps (Where's My Droid, Backgrounds, Gmail Notifier, etc) do little more than give me settings or other one time use functions but still clutter up my app drawer. Ideally, there could be some kind of app that allows me to make folders within the app drawer and reduce the mess a bit. I know there are such things for the Home screens, but does anyone use something similar for the app drawer?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got a bunch of live wallpapers for sale, and have a lot of 1-star comments that just say "Doesn't open". This is because there's no launcher activity, so the open button is greyed out after download. I'm attempting to fix this by including an activity that explains what to do, and I'm trying to avoid useless app clutter by disabling that activity once they've successfully used the wallpaper. This seems to work fine, the problem is the app icon doesn't go away right away. It stays in the app drawer and if you tap it you get a "this has been disabled" message. Eventually it will be removed if the phone is rebooted or if the home app is restarted. I'd like to clean this up. Is there a way to tell Home to refresh this list, or to otherwise tell it to remove the icon from the listing? It seems a bit rude to process kill Home for this purpose, and clearly something like this happens when an app is installed/ uninstalled.

View 1 Replies View Relatedthere's one app who is a big offender here I think anyone who uses it will know which one I mean its in the top paid apps - all the skins appear in the app drawer.And yet I can sort of understand why he's done it because you have a choice of either including these lines in AndroidManifest.xml or not.If you do, app can be launched and is in app drawer. If you don't, app can't be launched and is not in app drawer.What would be most useful is the inbetween, i.e. app can be launched and is not in app drawer. I've played around with all variations in xml file and nothing achieves this behavior.Publishers want skin packs to be launchable, so that when people download them wondering what they are, they can include some info directing you to a website or better still, straight to the main product in the market. But its inconsiderate to customers to fill up their app drawers with stuff that is just skin packs / themes. I don't think there is a solution to this, but I think its an issue that Android need to address.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen you click the app drawer it pulls up all the apps installed in abc order. What I want is a shortcut on my desk top to do the same thing. Just an icon on the desktop that once click will open all my apps. Its needs to be a shortcut and not a widget as I'd like to be able to change the icon when i want.(As far as I know you can not change the icon on a widget)

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a bit of a problem with a SlidingDrawer that I created and that should go over my VideoView. When the activity is opened for the first time you can see the slider above the video and when you tap it, it slides open. However, as soon as you close the slider it seems to disappear underneath the VideoView and is not visible anymore. It is still there and when you tap the location where the handle is located the slidingDrawer reappears, but I would rather prefer if it wasn't hiding all the time ;) If anyone knows what I can do about that and help me out, that would be really fantastic because I have been trying for hours now and I have no idea what I should do. I also haven't found a similar issue or a solution for that.

I'm trying to create a sliding drawer in code, but I don't understand what to do for the AttributeSet part of the constructor.
What do I need to do for that?
Also, how do I define in code where the slider is going to show up?
Is there any way to make the drawer slide from top to bottom?

I saw a thread asking why so many people prefer LauncherPro over ADW, and I was surprised to see that one of the biggest reasons people liked LauncherPro was because of the 3D app drawer. Well being the mass follower that I am, I decided it must be better than I initially thought so I decided to try it out again. I used it for a week or so but just couldn't fall in love with it.
That being the case, I decided to start a thread asking if and why people like the 3d app drawer...I figure I must be missing something still.

I'm currently developing LeWaOS rom for the htc wildfire. It's based on stable CM7.2

If not then is it possible to add it to the settings apk ?

I also tried "App Vault", but this doesn't let you access the app while it is hidden.Can anyone help me please?
