[Q] htc sense help and app drawer

hi im not a noob to android had loads of phone but i am to sense. i dont like htc's sense for some reason such as the pagnated app drawer i want a continous ''fling'' if you get me, but anytime i change launcher i cant us the PERSONILIZE settings in the setting or htc widgets.. so my question is , is there anyway to get just a app drawer without a complete launcher or have a launcher that will allow the personilize setting to work thanks
not that i'm aware of, until rooted and roms can be pieced together. but some of the launchers are very impressive (like launcher pro myself) instead of a dedicated customize button you'l rarely use you can choose your buttons and hit menu to customize. btw, not a good idea to give out your email address to everyone in the world

[Q] Add the option for creating folders in app drawer

I was wondering if there is a dev out there that created/could create a mod or an app that will allow me to create a folder in the app drawer like in Go launcher.
I love sense and i don't want a different launcher and this is the only problem that bugs me about the sense launcher and i don't wan't to have folders on my 'desktop' because I rather have widgets or icons there
a little bump for first page
definitely won't happen.
why not??
it is very organized and not everybody wants to have folders on the desktop screen

Find me the source code for the Sense launcher and I'll add that feature for you...
Or, you can try to add the function yourself...
On a serious note, you're most likely not going to get that feature unless you can find a way to back port it by use of apktool. Obviously you're a small voice in a big crowd and it's not likely that any knowledgable developers are going to take on the time consuming project to please you.
I don't mean to offend you, I'm just sarcastic...
Now, if you do want that feature then there have been some viable solutions offered to you in this thread already.

[Q] Next Launcher App Drawer and LMT Pie

Hi,
I'm trying to have a shortcut in Pie to load the Next Launcher App Drawer but can't manage to have it working.
I tried to use Tasker with info found in the Catlog but I'm too newbie...
Does someone have a tip or could help ?
Thanks.
Am I the only one trying to get a shortcut for next launcher app drawer?
Nope. There's one more. ME! Some people do it with a tasker shortcut. Maybe we can request the dev to add a Next app drawer option just liek there is for the nova, Holo and apex lauchers.

Stock Launcher Settings

Hi,
Could someone please share what settings the stock Launcher comes with, and if the HiBoard feature is there? I always like to use the default launcher, if it's good enough, but can't find anyone that has reviewed it at all, for any EMUI device.
Just would be nice to know if it has/can:
App Shortcuts
Badges
Grid Size Options
Resize Widgets
And what information you can add to HiBoard.
Thanks.
