[Q] disable wallpaper changing? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Today I installed an app locker (perfect app locker) so I could protect some apps from nosy people (gmail, drive, gallery, etc). Which does what it's supposed to do... then i noticed something. If open the wallpaper settings (holding down on home screen) I can access to 'recent' pictures, and my drive, dropbox, astro file manager, downloads, gallery. that means - in a way bypassing the protection. Is there an app that could actually be able to disable that?

BsB Tweaks & sense rotation: All or nothing?

It seems that if I use BdB Tweaks to enable rotation for any Sense app (such as text messaging or weather, it enables it for all Sense apps. This creates a problem with the music and docs tabs that are already set up to rotate. Now they rotate 180 degrees.
Anyone know of a work a round that would exempt the apps that already rotate?
Thanks!
Sense and all of it's little knick knacks (music tab, photo's tab, email, messaging... all of it) is one big fat package that shows up as a process called manila. All that stuff is one big program, so if you add one of them... they all get added.
No workaround for this. Sorry

[Q] Question re: ADW

Ok, so I'm using ADW now, and I'm loving it. The only question I have is not necessarily concerning ADW, but the action buttons... Is it possible to not have an application assigned to one, but like a mini app drawer, with specified contents? So for instance, I click on one, and it shows all my various social apps (Text Messaging, Facebook, Gmail, Yahoo mail, etc). Anyone aware of anything like this?
You could try Advanced Launcher Lite. You can't put it on the dockbar, but it does create a widget that you can add the apps you want to each category.

have you tried to create a folder, put stuff in folder, and drag it down to the bar?

Weird, not all apps appear to be accessible from drawer.

On the Vibrant, there would be multiple icons in its drawer to access the same app, only approaching it so that you land on different tabs. On the MT4G, for instance, the Peep app is entirely missing. It appears you can only access the built-in Twitter app via the widget?
There was also a nice 'quick find' app that you can't access from the drawer. In it, there were multiple entries along the bottom where you could use the same search term in various area of the web, such as Wiki, youtube, google, etc. It reminded me of the Dragon search on the iphone.

yes I realized that too and on the other hand plain android 2.2 applications like the genius news widget is missing completely.
The 'Quick find' app appears when you select text within the default web browser. It's very nice!
There are definitely apps present that are not accessible directly from the drawer in Sense. Install LauncherPro or ADW and you'll notice about 20 additional apps (approximate by a quick scan) in their app drawers. I think these are apps accessible via other apps/functions in Sense so atte hidden in the app drawer. For example, the FM Radio is not available in the Sense app drawer, but is in LP. In Sense it is accessed via Media Room. We should be given the option in Sense on what to display -this is one reason I'm using LP+.

[Q] Adding custom tab in app launcher

Hello there!
I've got a question about if it's possible to add a tab/section on the sense 3.0 app launcher.
There are already three tabs; "All apps", "Frequent" and "Downloaded". If I hold on one of them, I can re-arrange them, but is there a way to add my own so that I could put all of my games in one tab?
Sorry about my crappy explanation.
You can just rearrange them...
Not only in the drawer but also e.g. in the Music app...
Adding is not possible...
For organizing your apps in folders you have to put folders onto one of the seven home screens - either with HTCs standard folder feature or get one of the multiple app / folder organizer apps from the market...
I for example use "Auto App Organizer" which puts installed apps into predefined folders automatically. Pretty handy and you can manually override...
