There have been a lot of questions in regards to sorting the applications in grid view. One is to clear cache on twlauncher in settings. This solution resets everything including your home screen. A much simpler solution is to download the AppZorter for TouchWiz Lite It is free in the market. Install, Run and select sort. Give it a minute and your set.

Does anyone know hope to use angry gps? Lbtest I could use slightly, but I havent even figured out how to open this.

+1Trying to access it too. When I run it, it takes me directly to the Location and Security Settings. Woo, but not what I am looking for.
Since I use LauncherPro, I create a shortcut on my homescreen for LauncherPro activities and select AngryGPS>com.android.angryGPS.AngryGPS and it opens up just like LBS test mode. There might be an easier way to access it, or different ways to access it on different launchers, but this works for me.
After playing around with it on adw, stock tw from juwes and sony arc launcher, its the same to create a shortcut for both.
(long press)> shortcut> activities> angry gps> first one in menu.

You type it into the phone browser (or make a shortcut) - it's the same as in Froyo: *#3214789650#.
As to what to do when you are inside... Still figuring that out.
Once you open it up, it's exactly like LBSTestmode.... Open it, got to settings and you can mess around with the general settings and the SUPL settings until you find the config that works best for you.
I haven't had to change mine at all, I just use whatever settings were in place and I've been getting 10 second locks with 6-8 satellites within 5 meter accuracy and spot on tracking.

The easiest way surprisingly is just to download and install Launcher pro........NO YOU DONT USE THE launcher, but it adds the activities shortcut to any launcher..........Figured out that the hard way.
Another way to get access to a lot of things like this is to use the app SGS Toolbox. It gives you access to things like the GPS menu and selecting data networks. I use it because I dont want an extra shortcut just to adjust GPS settings every once and a while.

Which ROM? Android version?
It's going to be gingerbread. Before that it was called lbstest mode.
Try the SGS Secret Code app. It provides one-click access to many (all?) secret code screens.
Is there any improvement with angrygps?

Hi there, to achieve it, you have to do these;
1. Press Menu
2. Go to Setting
3. Go to Applications
4. Go to Manage Applications
5. Select the launcher you want to clear the default.
6. Press the setting that says "clear default".
7. Press the home key and you will be presented with a pop-up menu to select which launcher you want to use.
8. If you tick set as default while in the pop-up.menu, the next time you press the home key, you will go straight to that launcher.
9. If you didn't tick the set as default, you will be presented pop-up menu everytime you press the home key.
Please try and post feedback.
Regards and TQ,
Morisa

Legend thanks very much.
Is there any way to alter touchwiz in a similar fashion to ADW or GO?
Like extra columns / rows etc?

Hi senectus,
I didn't use TouchWiz and am sorry for not be able to assist you there. I am on Go Launcher. I like it and suit my needs.

TW isnt as customizable as any third party launcher...
what i always do after installing my preferred Launcher is to freeze the TW via Titanium backup and then reboot...
That sounds interesting.
What's "freeze touchwiz" mean?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk
you have to install titanium backup from the market, let it initialize then have it with root access, find the TWlauncher file from of isntalled apps, long press then choos
e "freeze"... why? so that it wont create conflict to the system specially when you have other launcher installed. if you want to revert back to stock Touchwiz, you can always unfreeze it...
Thats interesting.
I haven't heard of that before.
Do you think it would improve performance or battery life doing that?
What happens when you install the other launcher and tw is "frozen"?

another option is to try "AutoStarts" and prevent TWL from launching. i did that and it seems to be working (previously some apps still ask which launcher i want to open, despite setting the default one already)
AutoStarts also helps in stopping unwanted apps from starting at boot, even system ones (i hope this is what it does, and not just kills them, although i notice more ram after booting for a while than previously)
so this is my first post! =) and i wanted to post in development but i need at least ten posts so if you guys can help me out with this issue or post about it in development under the alien build #5 thread to let rom racer know. ok well i love the rom absofuckinlutley works great! one problem i found is that if you are unsuccessful in moving apps/folders from page to page they actually get stuck in between pages and you cant delete them there just kinda there and annoying any help would be great, maybe someone else has ran into this problem but i just dont want to do a reset since i finally got my phone fixed up how i like it thanks! if you dont understand me ill try and clarify and post screenshots of problem thanks! EDIT btw i did read the WHOLE article in android development and didnt find anything on this issue thanks!
Hmm couldnt just cancel the edit you were doing? It requires you to save...
Haven't been able to get anything stuck, it always managets to drop the item wherever it was heading.
Picture?
If your using touchwiz launcher, you xan go to manage apps, and click on TWlauncher. Theres a button that says clear cache. Clear it - it will reset the launcher to default.

This should work. But are you saying it's stuck even if you re-boot the phone? If so that is really strange.
Or, you can try downloading a different launcher from the Market. I personally love Go Launcher Ex (with Honeycomb Theme--separate download from the market). Let's you multi-select apps for your homescreens which makes it quick and easy to set up.

thanks that fixed it! but ya my apps were stuck in between pages it was really weird ha thanks a bundle!
Android 4.3 has a hidden part of the settings that allow you to turn individual permissions on and off for apps.
You can get to it from some existing apps, but I've built a simple app that directly launches that screen.
You can get it for free here.
Just installed.
Works exactly as you say!

Smooth clean. Perfect description. Nice review
If I actually did help, how bout a Thanks for 'ol times sake
As title, I'm running 5.02 (Netherlands) on a P900. Everything is pretty good and I can switch on toolbox but if I actually select toolbox then settings crashes. Any ideas?
EDIT: Did a data wipe and that fixed it. Wiping the cache did not sadly.

Same thing happened to me, after going to the notification panel and switching it on from there, it stopped freezing and is working like normal

Same problem with my US version and 5.02. I did a Wipe Cache and that didn't solve it. Also, I don't have the tool from the notification panel, just in the Settings. I am not ready to factory reset.

Try just turning it on, then let it force close, hold the toolbox, then go up to edit, then it should work from there

4. Click DONE.
5. Go back to the settings, and you will see it active

Thank you. I can confirm that it works now.
I think it's the initial set up that's causing it to crash. Once you have one app on the toolbox, setting no longer crashes when pressing toolbox.

Well, I did figure it out in the original post
Looks like we have a way that doesn't involve a data wipe now though, so that's better
Thanks, this worked.

Wish I would have read this before I did a hard reset
Oh, that's what those 3 dots are!
Thanks, Yoshi! I've been trying to figure out what those 3 Dots were once my Note Pro "downgraded" to 5.02.
I'm having crashes with Toolbox as well. Once I followed your instructions, the 3-dot icon had the apps I picked. Then I realized this was "Toolbox". Of course, a little documentation about what was being changed by version 5.02 would have been a great help. But it seems like it costs too much nowadays to create documents along with hardware/software.
But why would I need Toolbox when I've been using Slider Launcher app for a few months to do the same thing? And Slider doesn't have the 5 app restriction of Toolbox as well.
Now if I can only get my Logitech Pro keyboard and the Samsung keyboard to work like they did under 4.4, and the S-Note widget to show all my notes ... well, here's hoping 5.03 will be soon coming and enhance my tablet instead of degrade it.
