I don't have it on my phone anymore but it was somewhere under menu > preferences from the home screen. You could order it alphabetically or by order installed etc.
You can't order apps on TWLauncher. In list mode it's listed alphabetically. In icon mode you have to manually drag them around....

Hi,
- How do I add more pages to my home screen?
- It's possible to organize the Application menu? like add forlders or sort it?
Thanks in advance

You need an app called home++ (get it from the android store)
No, the application menu is alphabetically ordered and cannot be changed, yet.
Or HelixLauncher for Donut.... The application menu on Android devices is fixed alphabetically..

I've used Helix Launcher on other Android phones. On the X10 I can't get it in the Market. It doesn't turn up on searches.
I see several screenshots posted here from people who use Launcher pro.
I do like those screenshots and there are some handy things about it what i like.
However.... I am a bit afraid to mess up my Desire. So i have a couple of questions....
1. If I install this app Can I switch easily between Sense & launcher Pro
2. How can i Switch
3. The most important Widget from sense is the contacts Widget, is there a widget that can replace this functionality ?
4. I also the mail widgets from Sense is there a replacement for those ?
I hav a stock rom with the latest Update. I don't want to root or dos something like that. Can I have a go with LauncherPro ?
If your in bed with sense why not stay there for now and see what happens on the 23rd when we get FroYo?

Yes, you can use an app on the market called Home Switcher.

Not exactly, but similar widgets are available.

There are widgets out there... give Executive Assistant a spin
Why not just install it and see what you think... you might like it and ditch the sense stuff... which imo isn't that great!
Yes, switching is easy! You can either go through the "Manage Applications" menu (Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications), select your current launcher and tap "Clear Defaults", or go to marketplace and download "Home Switcher" which makes life really easy if you're indecisive. ;P
You're also asked which launcher to use the first time you tap the Home button when one is installed or removed. You have to tap the checkbox at the bottom to set one as the default, so one of the easiest way to try it out is to leave it unchecked, then you get prompted each time, once you've made your choice, you can just tap the checkbox.
I'm not sure about specific replacements for those widgets, but in general there are solutions. You can add contacts to your homescreen directly the same way you add widgets (Hold a blank area -> Select "Shortcut" -> "Person").

You act like it's been confirmed...
I'm really curious to know how I can change the default 4 app shortcuts in the launcher.
The ones I'm talking about is the Phone, Messaging, Contacts, etc
I have my phone rooted, the works.
For the life of me I've played with the phone all weekend and looked online and can't seem to find a damn thing.
Thanks for any help you good folks can provide, and I look forward to some fantastic ROMS from the community!
Push applications button > menu > select customizable grid
Push menu > edit
You can drag icons from the app drawer to the bottom, but you can only change 2 of the 4.
best way IMO is to use a different launcher
launcher pro and ADWL Launcher are both excellent and worth a try.

Any way it can be made to work?
Is there a way to organise the icons alphabetically? Maybe I am missing it but I can't see it anywhere.
Just press on applications. Then press the menu soft key and select list view.
Hope that helps.
Thanks

Thanks but is it possible to do this on grid view?
Go to Settings > Applications > Manage Applications and delete the program data for Touchwiz.
That should make it re-order everything alphabetically when it's next launched

Thanks, will give that a shot. There is also AppZorter Lite for TouchWiz in the Market for those who are interested.
If you are feeling a little bit adventurous, I highly recommend the Enhanced TouchWiz launcher. It has opened up a lot of options such as automatic app drawer grid sorting, app drawer customization, default home screen customization etc. Just make sure you read the thread and download all the necessary files to get it running on your SGS2. I'm using it on Infusion ROM and it works fine.

It also deletes all your widgets and panels, reverting to initial default widgets, naughty one

Tried it on my stock 2.3.3 w/ CF kernel. App forecloses upon running sort.
i installed appzorter light, and it worked for me on kf3 xeu stock unrooted.
when i first started it after the installation, it didn't work, it has to be started from the app drawer, but then with one click it sorted my apps alphabetically. also, it is capable of closing gaps when an app is removed. it's slim and does what is supposed to.

That issue should be fixed now, try the new version (1.0.4).
"appzorter" downloadable from the market will alphabetically arrange your program icons in the app drawer for touchwiz UI
Shield is absolutely amazing, but it's home screen is painful.
How can I change the default home launcher to something else?
Thanks!
You'll need to uninstall the current update from Google's TV Launcher, then install a 3rd party Launcher like "HALauncher". Also, turn auto updates off in Google Play Store settings so HALauncher will fix as your default launcher...

I think you can search android tv launcher in the play store, select it and then select uninstall updates.

Hi,
I've uninstalled the Latested Updates but Hal Launcher is still not being set as the Main Launcher. Even though it's selected as Home App. I don't get any option to set it as Default.
I've tried to clear the defaults from Learnback Launcher but that didn't work.
Don't want to Root now just incase I wish to return it. Still all new for me and want to test it out as much as possible.
Thanks
