Lol...happened to me too
long press on home screen -> custom shortcut -> pick your activity -> launcher actions -> open/close app drawer
Drag it to where you want it and voila

hey everyone, been a long time well i got rid of my MT3G got and HD2 despised it now i got this. this may have been posted about somewhere but i couldent find it so i apologize if it is.
i installed chomp sms and i was wondering if there was a way to replace the scok messageing button on the lil menu bar deal with the chomp sms shortcut. i do have root access.
thank yall
1. Open your Applications launcher
2. Tap the Menu button and select View Type->Customizable Grid
3. Tap the Menu button again and select Edit
4. Drag the ChompSMS icon over the Messaging icon. You should see a "swapping" animation as the icons rearrange themselves.
I am trying to get this to be a sticky, for this very reason. Good question, but its been answered a lot:

Yes, you can get to the app by holding the Home softkey, but the widget your talking about is part of TouchWiz and can not be used within other launchers. Unless one of the Dev's can figure out a way to mod it.
to get as a widget long press empty space and select shortcut, then select activities, then task manager and select the first one. you can also get it as a short cut in the doc tray at bottom (the 4 icons next to the app drawer button) by long pressing and selecting change shortcut, select activities, scroll down to and select task manager, and select the first one. icon isn't the same but takes you to the same place ur trying to get to. this is the only way i have figured out so far.

Long press the contact icon > change shortcut > applications > Contacts...
Choose if you want the default icon or launcher pro icon....thats it...back button should be working now...

Strange...it works for me...which rom are you using...and as for the apps not deleting from the drawer....you can't do anything....you'll have to uninstall apps from application menu
You can delete apps by:
Long Press On App
Drag To Trash Can
Hold Over Trash Can Until Prompted to Uninstall
The contcet problem is in every rom...Me too cant go back frm the contact by pressing back button...

Thanx man! Worked for me. Was suffering for a long time from this small bug
I really like the really simple menu and app drawer that the stock 1.2 has, but it only shows the built in apps or ones downloaded from the BN app store.
Is there any way to force all the other apps I have installed to show up? I would prefer to have the default "Home" launcher instead of Zeam, etc.
Any ideas?
It looks like B&N has the list of applications it installs through the Shop app. So until someone finds that database and how to manually add apps you will need to install a third part launcher. You can search the market for a home switcher application in the meantime if you like the stock launcher
Yeah, I have a home switcher installed already.
I really hope someone finds a way to override that list of apps that show up soon.

A workaround was brought up in the Manual Rooter thread about this. Basically, the workaround (and I'm running it right now) is to push the old BN 1.1's applauncher.apk to your system/app (should probably back it up first) and when you press the "Extras" button choose "applauncher"... everything will show up. The upside is now you can use default "Home" button but the downside is that the "Extras" tab doesn't populate new apps you install until a reboot.
Here's the applauncher.apk from 1.1 that I'm using.
Go to "Apps"
Tap on the "Archived" button
While holding the volume up hardkey, tap on the image of the speaker that appears.
This brings up the 1.1 "Extras"

Very nice! It worked for me. I tried volume down as well but volume up was the only one that did.
I use launcher pro which has changed my side scrolling apps screens to one vertical scroll screen. I prefer that, it's faster.
However, if I press the bottom left menu capacitor button, it's meant to bring up an edit button and then I should be able to add folders to my apps drawer so I can drag apps into them. But pressing the bottom left menu button does nothing except bring up my browser if I long press it. Anyone found a way around it? I'm guessing 'add folder' and 'add page' only works with stock launcher? Menu button only works from home screen or from within apps themselves, but not from the apps drawer.

Seems like it yeah. So, won't work with other launchers either such as GO launcher or ADW launcher, just the stock one then?
