Hey guys. I was just wondering if it is possible to "hide" apps in the app drawer. Mainly, I want to keep the critical apps that some apps depend on, but I don't want them to be seen in the app drawer... Some examples would be Voice Search, Voice Dialer, Call History, Clock, PDF Viewer, and Talk. I just like having an uncluttered app drawer, but the only way that I know of doing this is to delete apps.

There is an app in the market, i think its like "App vault" or something like that.
I can't remember who makes it. But I think it does what you are looking for.

Thanks, I'll take a look at it. If that doesn't work, is there anyway this could be ported to our phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540880
Just found out that App Vault disabled the app rather than hiding it. Unfortunately that would break apps the depend on the disabled app. One search I did, I found people who were able to hide apps by renaming the .apk to .bak, but that disabled the app.
bump.
anyone have any info on how to hide apps in your app drawer with default home launcher?
If you're using Launcher Pro Plus, theres a hidden apps feature.

ADW allows this as well. While the app drawer is open press the MENU button and then "Choose Group" > Create New Catalog and then set it up with the apps you want to be visible

Anyone who has jailbroken an ipod touch or an Iphone may have come across an app that is called categories. It takes the apps that you want and puts them into categories on your home screen so it is less cluttered.
Is there any app that has this type of function, whether on the home screen or on the sense app list?
I don't know of any way to categorize apps in your app drawer but there is a built in option to make folders on your homescreen.
There is an app called Apps organizer in the market.

Is there a way to sort pics in the gallery alphabetically instead of by date?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
Download quick pic from the market. It's a great replacement for gallery. It loads super fast, lets you hide folders, and lets you sort by name or date.
Not to mention it's free.

I noticed as of recent updates this has been removed from maps - anyway to get this back, or is it simply just incorporated into Google+ now?

I am not sure but I think some previouse version of Google Navication had the option to choose the destination from the map. I dont see it now and wondering if it was ever there or if it disapeared from this version or just from my SGT.
My SGT has an app labeled "Navigation" maybe you can look for the app in the market, or have someone send it to you.
Thnanks mate! I have it as well but cant choose destination off the map. Only options are to:
* Type destination,
* Choose from contacts,
* Choose from starred places.

Long Press the destination on the map.
Then there will pop up a square with info on the place you pressed. Klick it an you get some options. Here you can chose navigate....
Sorry for my lousy English....
