so i am totally loving android but have one annoyance - to get the app drawer, i have to go to my home page first. this just seems silly, but i can't for the life of me figure out the shortcut to jump to the app drawer from anywhere. is there such a thing? if so, what the heck is it?
thanks!

Alright, i really like the way the LG Optimus Z had the app drawer set up.
http://www.androidcentral.com/lg-optimus-z-review
It is split up by media, downloaded, and communication.
Is there an app out there or something similar to this?
thanks.
Bump... anyway know of any app like this? Or home screen replacement?
The latest build of ADW.Launcher has the ability to categorize apps and then switch between the standard app drawer (showing all apps) and drawers showing only the apps of a category.
It's a new feature, and something the developer has some ideas to expand on when he gets time.
I'm running Ginger Clone R2 Rom.
On a Samsung Vibrant
the Stock launcher is a Gingerbread launcher, but the 3D app drawer is annoying, is there anyway i can remove that, because i jsut don't like it and when im in the middle of the list, and go back to home screen, and go back to app drawer, its back at the top, how can i stop it from happening or is there another replacement which looks like that but without 3D or that problem?
It is not a problem,
The launcher is suppose to do that.
But if you go on the Android Market
and search "Gingerbread Launcher" or "MoDaCo"
and that one has no 3D app drawer.

Yes, the stock launchers (which the one from the market is stock, just a tad bit modified) do that, the only way to fix that is to change some code or use LauncherPro and use a Gingerbread theme.

Hey
I have question regarding adwlauncher ex.....
whenever you open app drawer and then you press the home button, the app drawer stays in that place and does not go back to the top.....
how can I change settings so whenever I close the app drawer, it goes back to the top automatically, and not stay at the same spot as last time?
To be more clear, I am using vertical app drawer, and for example, I have lots of apps in drawer, if I scroll up to view more apps and then close the drawer, the drawer stays at the same spot as how much i scrolled......I dont want it to stay there, I want the drawer to go back to the original position at the top....
hard to explain, but if someone know how to fix this please let me know
thanks
I know what you mean, but I don't believe there is a setting for this.
Hah, I was also thinking about this the other day and wish there was an option
Same with returning to the default homescreen after launching an app from a non-default homescreen.
Hey guys,
Im running action launcher on my phone. Its pretty cool and i like the appearance of the app drawer as well as the ingenious covers. Anyways I am having one issue. The button to open the app drawer is too far for me to press. I want to have an app drawer icon like in standard android. How can i add an icon to open the app drawer.
I got rid of the buttons at the bottom of my nexus 4 for the extra screen space so i cant just use the home button.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Alex
Hi everyone.... Loving my new Mate 9 but have a question.... I know that if I want an app drawer that can have custom folders in the drawer I can do so by using a third-party launcher, like Nova. I have been a loyal Nova user for years as a matter of fact. That said, when I got the M9 I was intrigued by the stock launcher. At first, I just used it with no app drawer and made folders on some home screens but now I'm wondering..... is there anyway to BOTH use the app drawer, AND make folders in that app drawer instead of just having every app shown individually, in alpha order?
My other question would be..... If I use the app drawer and drag an app onto the homescreen, is there any way to have it NOT also show up in the app drawer? I think the app drawer would be far less cumbersome to search through if those apps already showing on the homescreen didn't also have to be shown in the app drawer.
I hope my questions are clear. Thanks everyone!
I hope there is a folder solution as you describe. I too would like to better organize my app drawer.
Yes! Thank you! My thoughts exactly. Any app (not launcher) based solution out there?
