You can (with Go Launcher EX) depending on what you mean by "App screen"? If you mean "App drawer", you can create folders in the App Drawer by dragging any item on top of another.

Well I could on my iPhone but not here. I just tried with 2 side by side icons and all they do is change places!

OK figured it out . On the app page you go into edit mode. Then you long touch on an icon and drag it down to the bottom where a few options appear ,one being a folder. So after you drop it in the folder, it moves up to the screen and you can drop other icons into it.

Try again... side by side icons work... just long press one icon (red X appears), then drag onto any app icon AND KEEP HOLDING FIRST ICON until box appears underneath... then let go and folder name screen appears.
Nope no go , no little red boxes . But I do remember seeing them on my phone on one revision or other.

the XDA developers app

i have some trouble when i use the official XDA developers app
1.the top and bottom of screen was almost always occupied when i read the topic,especially the bottom,i dont know why there is a blank that seems nothing could do-_-#even ADs i didnt see(personally,i wish never ADs on that).
2.i saw many links on the BBS,but when i click it in app,always asked me to use browser to open it,why dont insert a simple browser in XDA app?
3. for a quick movement,why not set a controller on the right when slide,just like the file system on android.

[APP][4.0+]Green Day Lyrics

Project closed
Hello,
I present to you, my first android application project.
As the name suggest, this app displays almost all the lyrics of songs by Punk Rock band called Green Day.
I personally love this band, so decided to make a cool lyrics app and share with every Green Day fan out there.
Being my first project, I tried my best to make it full of features.
Features :
- Navigation Drawer
- Theme Chooser
- Album cover background on every album and song.
- Details about every album/song (like track length, writers etc)
- Split Action Bar at each track, connects whole app internally.
- Directly report any error in song lyrics (no e-mail id required, no need to type name of track for reporting error)
- 'All Songs' screen displays all the songs on a single screen.
- Search Bar in 'All Songs' make it easy to search song, if you don't know the name of album of song.
- 'Now Playing' automatically detects current playing song in media player and shows its lyrics.
- Auto-Scrolling (working on it).
- More to come !
I have made this app open source. You can get the source code here.
Changelog here.
Download app
Play Store
Youtube video, demonstrating the app
Min. requirements are API 14 i.e. Android 4.0+
Feedback and suggestions are most welcome.
I have attached some screenshots.

Initially it didn't worked for me too. Reboot your device and try again. For me, it works fine on Poweramp. If problem persists, give me a logcat so that I can look into the problem.
Edit: I just rechecked it, seems like feature is not working for poweramp. Feature is fully working with Play music and Apollo music player, I will look into problem with poweramp. Thanks for reporting.
Yes it is working for both.
Now what all u can include, you can include a player itself inside it so there would be no compatibility issues, then an artwork embedder(only for green day songs), then bring in a news tab which could show the live performances happening the a little about green day like about Bille Joe Armstrong and all like that.
There is a lot of scope for improvement and once all done make this app a paid one and release a free app with it.

I don't know about including a player, never tried something like that before. However, I will definitely try to add it.
About the news tab, I don't know if I have rights to display filtered data from official Green Day . com website into my app.
About the info. stuff, I have already added it in Settings, and linked to wikipedia link of the members.
BTW I am thinking of providing this app for free only. There will be a donate version, but that will be just for those who want to support. Otherwise, there will not be any differences between free and donate version (i won't put any ads too).
I don't aim to make profit from this app

Didn't the first boot showcase views (speccially one which came in 'All songs') overlapped with button or went out of screen?
I tested it on emulator, and I was going out of screen even on hdpi. But I am not sure on real device. Can you check once again?

Everything seems fine, btw try this. Go to settings, press on review hints.
Then app will restart with startup instructions, can you give me screenshot of the instructions that highlight with a circle at the icon in main activity.
Another similar hint comes whn you open all songs. Give you give me screenshot of these two screens?
thanks

Same here. Earlier when i had different rom, it crashed. Seems there was problem in rom itself, not in the app.
BTW download songs from mp3boo . com instead of some other site. They have named songs according to official release.

Hey there, can you test this apk?
https://www.dropbox.com/s/o6g8of8ulgxsmu4/com.greenday.lyrics-2.apk
After installing, enable auto scrolling in settings, then go to american idiot > american idiot
Then slide from top to bottom. Tell me if I should implement this feature in other songs too?
Initial version released on play store.

Please give me feedback about the app.
Thank You.

[Q] Slow Share menu

Since the most recent update, my Share menu takes a long time to come up when I share a link from apps. Apps I can duplicate the issue with (because I use them all the time) are Reddit Sync Pro and Reddit Now, but it seems to be system-wide. It takes a good 5-10 seconds for the share menu to come up.
I cleared Dalvik and cache and the issue persists. Once, I took a screenshot and when I tapped "share" in the notification shade, it rebooted the phone. Is anyone else experiencing anything like this? There's nothing else weird on my phone. I don't have Xposed or anything. It's just rooted.
I installed the application "appchooser" as a replacement for the system app chooser and now it's back to being fast like it was, but I'm trying to confirm whether or not anyone else has seen this issue after the update, as it's definitely something i have never seen before.
No issues here
I just performed the same steps and my share menu options come up for me instantly, but the only options I have beside the default are Skype and LINE. I would suggest trying to uninstall the Reddit apps, then try again and see if it's still slow. If that resolves it, I would write to the developer of the Reddit app and make them aware of the behavior.

Thanks. The thing is, it was coming up instantly in both apps before the Cyanogenmod update. And it's weird that it wouldn't affect a share app replacement like appchooser.

Quite... I'm on 30O as well. It's a rather bizarre issue isn't it. Nonetheless, I'd try what I recommended first. This is the troubleshooting process mate. It's a process of elimination.
I have two One's both updated to 4.4.4 and both share functions are messed up. It's definitely the software. Here's how I came to that conclusion. One of my phones is stock everything, no mods and or root. I took the ota the conventional way. The share feature no matter what app I'm using displays an black screen. The second phone is modded, rooted, custom recovery, and it was updated manually using Caulk's modded files. Its share function does exactly the same thing as the non modded phone does. It worked fine on 4.4.2

Well that's quite bizarre then. I have unlocked, rooted, with OTA 30O and my sharing functionality works just fine. I've shared several things since my update as well.
Report the issue on the official CM site so the developers can look into it.

Thanks for confirming. Nice to know I'm not crazy (or the only one).
A workaround for now is to install a different app picker app. This one works really well and has helped me keep my sanity: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.noxi.apppicker&hl=en

Worked like a charm, there's an extra step but I can live with that. I wonder if I could set it as the default app, maybe move it to the system priv-app.

You should be able to set it as your default app chooser. I did.
I have been trying to find that option in settings but don't see it, I see the set SMS app. Usually on a TW or non CM ROM it always asks you the default app but it didn't ask me. Maybe I'll try clearing defaults and see if that helps.

Nah. The first time you share something after you install it, you should have the "always" and "just once" options.
Strange because Google Chrome doesn't give me that option. I understand what your saying. What I did was installed a different browser and sure enough it asked which default app I wanted to use. So I cleared Chrome and same as before it doesn't ask me for the default app. So I think it might be the updated chrome.

OK, so honest question... What's wrong with the built-in chooser? I mean, what's the advantage to using a third-party one? I generally prefer to run as close to native as possibly for performance reasons and to avoid bugs just like this one.

Did you read ANY of the thread? The bug is in the stock chooser, at least for us. We're only using a third party one to circumvent the bug.
To answer your question, the only real advantage otherwise is that you can remove things you don't want to see on your share menu. So, if you NEVER share to Google+, for instance, you can remove it so it doesn't show up as an option. You can restore these later, if you want them back.

Nice! Glad you got it working. I use Chrome Beta as my default browser.
I misunderstood then because I thought it was the app you were having issues with. In that case, I refer back to my first reply. I am also using the stock chooser and have not had this issue after updating, so it seems it's not universal. For whatever reason you guys got the bug while I did not.

It's amazing how much damage theming does. It even causes issues with Play Store.
Yeah, sadly there are some issues, but this is the biggest I found.
How long does the share menu need to show up on your phones? On my OPO it needs about 1 sec in chrome and under 1 sec in every other app.
I have a feeling that the menu opened quicker before...

I'm having this issue too and its so frustrating. It started happening when I updated to Marshmallow. I'm using the default theme, so it's probably not what causes it for me. Sharing from Youtube isn't slow though, but that's a different menu I guess.
Any suggestions?

Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. To create a new thread, in the lower right hand corner do you have three dots stacked vertically? Press on that. To reply, you should just have to tap on the top of the post you want to reply to.
So I see reply function and three dots when I long press a thread. Still no option to add a new thread.
