I've got quite a few folders on my homescreen for bookmarks and apps etc and would like to change the sorting criteria of the items or even better sort them how I like so they are placed in the folder how I like.
Anyone able to do this or have any ideas?
Cheers
For Apps in a folder I have not yet found a solution.
For Bookmarks I am using the LiveBook app (a Live Folder). It will show all Bookmarks alphabetically - which is exactly what I want, but your needs may be different of course.

Hi!
I am looking for an easy way to customize the today screen to my wishes (add app/folder links, change number of calendar entries displayed maybe add rss feeds and so on), the same with the start menu (add folders instead of programs, ignore the limit of entries that can be added etc.), and finally I would like to arrange the PROGRAMM, SETTINGS, and GAMES folders as I like it.
I know that there are several ROMs out there and I tried some, but there was nothing I found suitable for my needs and in most cases I encountered problems that have not taken care of. So I don't want a ROM, I don't want SPB or sthg. like that (it slows down the system considerable), I just want a tool that allows me to do the modification I described above.
Any suggestions or ideas besides "do it yourself"?
thanx and regards loc
Click on the "Panels" Button .... :-D
Actually I've found the Sony Ericsson Panel quite useful...
It has RSS feeds, various calendar and clock settings, shows you the weather information, shows your appointments and tasks, has some really good shortcuts for airplane mode, wifi, bluetooth and ring settings. Besides you can add shorcuts to the programs, contacts and files that you want.
For the today screen there are a lot of plug-ins, but honestly I haven't tried any since I alwas use the SE Panel. I'm sorry for not being of any help there.
You want to organize your progams list, right?
I think I can help you there.
Just go to the File explorer and search the "Windows" folder, in there go to "Start Menu" and then "Programs", there you'll have all the shortcuts that are in your program list, and you can arrange em as you wish (move them, add new folders, etc).
Does anyone know of a way to hide folders from the picture album?
By entering the path of the folder you wish to hide in this registry
HKLM\software\htc\htcalbum\ignored\
Note this will also hide the folder from being browsed when selecting an image for TF3D wallpaper.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This would be helpful.
I don't know why HTC design the album in that way. Don't they know there are so many pictures of icons,wallpaper,backgroud,windows fame etc. in the software installed folders?
I think in many cases its a toss up. Some devices will only detect images or music in the "music" or "images/pictures" folder or some similar setup. But then you have to be careful to always put them in those. If you want to have a more haphazard organization for whatever reason it's hard to make sure the player/viewer will differentiate between program images and the users scattered images.
It can be done, but it can be troublesome.
Is a way to create folders in the application list. I only know if i could do it on the home screen.
Also, how can I delete or edit the favorites? I'm having a hard time to do so..
Please advise.
By favorites do you mean the bookmarks?
Open the browser, then menu, then bookmarks, then menu, then delete.
This will reflect on your bookmarks/favorites widget as well.
As far as I know, you cannot create folders in the application drawer/list. You can sort by list instead of grid though, if it makes it easier.
i was looking for this too! thanks!
AFAIK there is no method of doing this. It could probably be possible with a custom launcher though and it would be pretty nice to have.
First of all I apologize if there is already a thread for this. 30 minutes and about 200 google searches later I have not found what I'm looking for.
Basically what I want to do is create custom folder icons for the folders i have on one of my homescreens. For the sake of organization and saving room, I've grouped app shortcuts into folders, but all the folders look the same. I would like to change the folder icons. I downloaded Better Cut thinking that would help but maybe I'm just not doing it right. Any suggestions or tips will be greatly appreciated.
Let me know if screenshots are needed to further explain what exactly I'm trying to do.
Setup:
Fresh 3.3
AmonRA Recovery
King's #11
You using Launcherpro? That lets you change icons, if not you can try Desktop Visualizer. I just use Smart Shortcuts then create a shortcut to my shortcut lol
I've been using "Apps Organizer" by Fabio Collini. It includes icons and works really well. Instead of creating folders, it allows you to categorize your apps and then add the categories to your home screen as a widget. It also lets you "star" items, so that you can have only the apps you use most often in each category be listed first, or be the only things displayed.
There is a minor delay when you click on categories that have a lot in them, but I find this a great way to manage my apps.
Hope that helps.
Apps Organizer is doing exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the help.
I created some folders on the desktop and added some apps there. Is there a way to re-arrange the apps inside the folder? When I add a new app, it will always be last and I couldn't find a way to re-sort or at least sort them alphabetically.
Do you know something I don't, or is this another HTC software failure and I should search for another folder app in the market?
No reply, so I guess it's not possible to configure the folders after created, right?
I don't recall being able to config folders much other than renaming. This is not Windows.
This ain't no htc software failure.....believe me. That's like blaming amtrack because your alarm clock didn't go off.

I like 'app folders'
