Anyone know of a way to get the list view of the app drawer the default? I think it's much smoother than the grid view. If you switch it, it will stay that way but will revert back to grid view on a reboot.

Hey Everyone,
I am trying to find an app or setting or tweak that will change my app menu on my droid 2 to list view rather then icon view. Anyone know where I can find one?
I think the only way to do that is to get a new launcher.
I know LiveHome is such a launcher that has this feature.
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.
With HC on my Xoom, when scrolling throught the app drawer, all I had were apps. With ICS, if I scroll past the end of the apps, it brings me into the widgets that if I tap them, will add to the home screen.
Is there any way to prevent this?
I guess what I'm asking is... With ICS how do I prevent my 3yr old son from being able to scrolling too far in the app drawer and ending up in the widget section where he is adding stuff to the home screens?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
googling this just then... if your using cm9 the trebuchet launcher for cm9 doesnt seems to have the ability to lock the desktop (ie not add anything to home screens) see trebuchet features: http://geekprison.com/4472-download-cm9-cyanogenmod-9-trebuchet-launcher-for-android-4-0-3/
using a launcher such as adw ex... you can not only lock the desktop to stop ya boy from adding stuff, adding widgets uses a long press of the screen so the app list remains widget free
hope this helps
So 3rd party launcher is the only way?
and I guess I'm not as worried about adding stuff to the home screen, as he is getting to the widgets, tapping, and not understanding what its doing so he gets frustrated... unlike when he scrolls through apps, and taps, they launch.
You see it's not that big different from app drawer if you don't put widget on it
I never use it my screen is always on app drawer
Well i will use home screen if app drawer have black background
Google play even automatically make icons on home screen for you
I set auto put to home screen off and remove all apps on my home screen afterward
Then i remove widget too i don't see any point of using clock widget if there's already one on my notification
So what's the point of home screen?
Just app drawer duplicated with widget?
btw stock touchwiz launcher

I find it is usefull to quickly access apps whilst not being packed with apps I rarely use
Do whatever you want with it. This is Android, after all, not iOS.
That's what makes us different than IOS Haha
I have hunted high and low for this, but is there a way to scroll up and down in the Android One UI apps drawer? I hate going left to right etc, and for the moment don't want to install Nova Launcher (just want to run with the stock launcher for a bit).
I cannot see where (if it exists) this setting is to change.
As far as I know there is not a way to scroll through the app drawer vertically using One UI. You would have to switch to a different launcher for a vertical app drawer.
Use Jina App Drawer.
Try the extremely powerful Jina App Drawer. Works with any launcher. This is what I use with Samsung One Ui.
