In stock launcher...how do you change the apps in the dock?
Thanks
I dont think you can, which is why im now trialing launcher pro and adw. Think im preferring launcher pro ATM, as the scrolling is buttery smooth
Launcher pro runs fastest of all I think once adjusting....the speeds in.preferences.
The Note Widgets are sweet tho!
Damn stupid AW...forcing you into docking apps you don't want there...

Open the App drawer, press menu and choose edit. Now you can place apps in the dock ;-)

Thanks a lot!
Now I only need to be able to bind a swipe up to the app drawer and then I don't need ADW anymore.

It took me a freeking week to realise that one can re-position apps in the drawer and group them in folders.

by double tapping the home button, you can bring up a custom 5x4 screen that lets you place shortcuts/widgets on it that opens over top whatever app you're running
seems like a really great idea
Re: QuickDesk Beta
Great idea, very useful. Must have app
This is...sexy. I am enjoying it. It took me a few seconds to figure out how it worked, but once I got it, It's sexy. hehehe.
Oh man. Genius. Thanks dude.
EDIT: landscape mode would be nice.
Hrm, just tried on 2.2 and it doesn't seem to work unless I set it up wrong. When I tap the home button twice it just takes me home lol.

you need to set it as your default launcher, then in quickdesk, you can set up your launcher as whatever you want

So, basically, clear defaults, and when you press home, and it says what launcher do you want to use, instead of launcher2, adw, or launcherpro (whatever you're using) you press "QuickDesk" then you double tap the home button, bring up quickdesk (you have to tap pretty quickly) and then press options - preferences. Then click 'default home' and set it back to your launcher. There, you can also change the delay for the double tap. Default is 300 miliseconds.
It's a cool app! Now I m thinking of moving the apps from my ADW apps dock to the QuickDesk, so I hv access to those apps anytime, anywhere!
Thanks for the great app!
Re: QuickDesk Beta
I got it set as: long press search button

I did exactly that, the dock is useless with this app and much faster to access

Me2, and Home key assign back to ADW Launcher itself, with dock disabled.
Is it like Power Strip?
Edit // market didnt work some minutes ago.. now it does. Its not like power strip
I'm loving this app. Thanks for the notification!
I can't make a decision between this and power strip.
I love this app! Very useful!
Sexy as hell
Very nice, two suggestions, add the option for a notification bar, and have it close on widget selection.
Anyone knows how to add an extra home screen.
Standard it has 3 home screens. 1 left, 1 middle and 1 right..
can there be addad a 4th one??
no, that's not possible, you need a launcher to do that
ADW.Launcher

Im assuming you are new to android. in android version 1.6, default launcher have 3 screens.
but if you want more you need to use 3rd party application for it (can extend upto 11 screens).
search and get your self educated, we have many discussions even in XDA on this.
For starters as free application Try ADW launcher (donut) version for X10 its free. but if you want more features go for paid application. I recommend GDE
even further, when you got your phone rooted, you can remove default launcher and have 3rd party app as your default. I did it. good thing is in X10 timescape itself works as a home launcher.

or when this doesn't work try the app "home switcher"
When I had my adp1 we had advanced launcher which gave me the ability to hide certain apps so they wouldn't show up in the drawer. I hate having font packs and the like appear in my app drawer. I also hate having redundant apps (desktop shortcut plus being in the app drawer)
Is there anything like advanced launcher out there for sense?
I remove the apk's from /system/apps. That will completely remove the app from your phone (so don't do it to apps you want to keep on your home screen) but seems to work well for sprint/htc's crapware.
You can hide them in LauncherPro.

Ill probably get flamed for this, but I'm partial to the sense launcher. I don't much care for the aftermarket launchers. In afraid though, that I'm bit going to have a choice

Sorry for the diversion
What software were you running on your adp?
I wonder if there's anything in the engineering pc36img.zip that would help..
Advanced Launcher was Sense?

On my adp1 it was typically an add on that required you to flash it over your rom or theme.
Just wondering, but why do you like Rosie more than LaucherPro? Please don't say "widgets" because there are equivalent widgets in LauncherPro Plus that are idential to those by HTC, and there are a ton in the Market with identical functionality.
I honestly like the way sense looks.
I just figured out I can make folders on my gsll phone in the app menu. (Not the home screens) I can put all the carrier BS and other app icons I don't want to see in there. It brought my app screens to 3 swipes from 5. Is that a standard Android feature or something Samsung added in with touchwiz? I would be interested in doing the same on my tablet.
That sounds like a Samsung Touchwiz feature. As far as I know, stock app drawer does not support folders/dedicated pages.
However, you can simply get a non-stock launcher such as Apex or Nova and they support app drawer folders, plus a multitude of extra features lacking in the stock launcher

That is possible, just use a third party launcher. I think nova has is
OK cool. I will check out those programs. I figured one of those would do the trick but wasn't sure if I was missing something. Thanks!

I am a very 'thanks'centric person, so I'd like to get that bar a bit more to the right lol

I guess Nova has it?
I've never used third party launchers myself, since I think that the stock launcher on the Infinity is rather cool
I'm using Nova Launcher on my S8+ but when I swipe up to open the app drawer, I can see the home screen dock icons while swiping and it goes away when the app drawer is fully open? Is there an option to disable it?

That's a normal feature when using "swipe to open" drawer.

So nothing can be done or an option to turn it off unless Nova Launcher fix it with an update? As it is fine with the stock S8 launcher with swipe to open drawer.

I use 0.5 animation speed. You can join Google+ community of Nova Launcher. Maybe someone there can help, it's very active community.

And you can reassign gestures, with pretty good granularity.
