Friends,
I have a few questions which i suppose many others would be facing.
1) I used menu edit to drag some of my apps to a new folder and named it Games.
I have some more apps which I want to move to same folder.
But i am not finding any means to edit the existing folder / add a new app to same folder.
Can anyone guide ?
2) How can we move apps / folders from one page to other in app screens ?
3) Also, while exploring options, i got some apps to a new page. That page is holding just one app. I want to shift the app from that page to other and delete this page. How to go about it ?
4) Is the in built system of folders good enough to organise apps in folders or it is better to get an app for it ? If yes, which one is best ?
Kindly help.

Sorry for the silly question, i've tried search on the web but maybe the search was too much generic.
So the question: is it possible to create a folder structure to organize my apps inside the "Application Folder" ? Why? I'd like to have my HomeScreen totally empty of icons/folders and directly go to "Applications" icon whenever I need to do something, but of course with tons of Apps installed it's a mess!
I am trying some AppsOrganizer from the market but I am not enough satisfied of the result..
thanks,
a.
I think some of the alternate launchers allow you to tag your apps & then display by tags. Another possibility might be SiMi Folder Pro which allows folders within folders.
HTH
Use Folder Organizer, it's by the same dev but it has more features. There's a free version but the paid version was well worth the money. You can put folders in folders in both versions (I think) and you can organize bookmarks, shortcuts and contacts in the paid version (as well as change icons for everything, not just your folders). I'd try out the free version first, if you like it then you can export your settings and then import them into the paid version.
Hi all,
I would like to know if i can create a folder shortcut in another folder. But not for the desktop at all(for that, no problems- lol). Like an .ink in windows; just create a small file which indicates a path access.
I explain : i have some music apps (musical creation)which requires data in their own folder (ex: /sdcard/electrum/samples or /sdcard/spc/samples or /sdcard/gstomper/samples... etc.) I have some data which i want to use with all these apps so i have to create a shortcut to my main data folder in all these locations.
Right now i'm stuck and the only way to work is to copy data as many times as the number of my music apps and it just overloads my SD.
Before posting, i searched a lot on the web, but unsuccessfully.
Thanx in advance.

I have an Unlocked Samsung Focus(thanks to windowsbreak). I have deployed HTC apps on my phone but currently these HTC apps are spread across since they start with different names
I wanted to know whether I can somehow rename all the HTC apps to start with HTC and then the app name so that all HTC apps will be grouped together
Example: Notes to renamed to HTC Notes, so it will appear along with HTC Hub itself.
Waiting to hear back from you guys
I suppose you could edit the individual xap manifest files but you might be better off just installing the folders application.
I didnt want to go the folder way since even if I go the folder way still in the main App Menu still the apps would be located at different locations. So just wanted to sort out the Apps.
Just trying to making the App Menu look good with everything arranged properly

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How do I go about changing the manifest files? I didnt find an entry for the name of the app in WMAppManifest.xml or AppManifest.xaml
EDIT: Got it. Edited the title in WMAppManifest.xml and it worked. Thanks
renaming apps and changing icons
try this new app called app swap to rename apps and change icons.
Hey ho,
My problem is the following: In my main Folder (mnt/sdcard) are aproximately 40 folders of which I need/acutally use 5. Everytime I want to go to one of those I feel like looking up something in my PCs Registry . The problem is i can't delete or hide them using hide-apps such as MediaHide, because they are App-related Systemfolders (storing data or photos for apps). If removed or replaced they get recreated as soon as I launch the specific apps. So my question is basically:
Is there a way to hide/not show specific folders without changing them?
If my problem is unclear, here's a pic [http: // tiny. cc / duncanwickpic] (the red dots on the right mark the folders i actually require)
Help would be highly appreciated
cheers
Anyone know of a simple way to stop the gallery from Showing all folders? I've got stuff on my SD card that I don't feel is appropriate for my young children to see (primarily "R" rated movies) & my 4 y/o daughter loves to "look @ pictures, daddy" when we're in the car.
Any way to keep the folder containing these files from being shown in the gallery? Can/should I uninstall the gallery app & use a substitute?
I heard a while back that you can I insert a text file like ".nomedia" but have no idea how to do that.
Any suggestions / ideas (that don't include "remove that crap" or "control your kids!" LÖL) are appreciated. If the suggestion is a .nomedia file or some such, detailed instructions would also be appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

An easy way to add the .nomedia file is to download the free version of Super Manager from the Play Store. (or paid if you decide you like it) Once you have it open it and go to the file manager. Open up the folder you want hidden so that you can see its contents. At the bottom of the app there is a bar with different buttons. One of them looks like the Windows Media Player icon with a check mark and an X on it and says media below it. Tapping that icon will add/remove a .nomedia file in the open folder.
May not be the most simplistic way but I always had trouble finding something that would let me create just a standard file type I could turn in to the .nomedia file. All most file manager apps let you create is a folder which wont work.
Thanks for the advice! Embarrassing as this is, I "cheated" & looked for an answer on Google @ the same time I posted the question.
Turns out the easiest way for me was to change the name of the folder from "Interesting" to ".Interesting"
Folder disappeared and is no longer assessable through the gallery.
Sorry for the wasted time but I appreciate the answer. Next time, I'll be a little less lazy & a little more aware of the power of the Goog....

Thanks!

I use an app called Vaulty (free version) or Stocks (paid version of Vaulty). It works well for hiding media from prying eyes. Entering anything other than the correct password on the program's opening page just performs a stock market lookup, so as far as anyone else is concerned, it's just another stock market app.
