Is there any way to get a widget to show up in launch menu?
Or maby how to make a "shortcut" to the widget to make it show up in the program menu as a regular program. I guess i would be able to "select" it in the long press search button launch menu.
Maby someone know of an application that does the same as the "total silence" widget. That will say, turn off ALL sound when executed without asking any questions and then set all soundsettings back to previous setting when run again?
Widgets arent meant to be launched like apps..

Hey I hope this isn't a repeat question but I did search. I was wondering if thee was a way to organize the menu on the evo like we could do back with wm? Make folders etc.
Thanks
P.s. I wasn't sure if this belonged here or q and a. Sorry if wrong section.

You can make make folders on the home screen
Long press home screen > select folder but that's about it.
Can't customize the the pop up menu.
Try something like "apps organizer" (free).
I never use the main launch button any more.
Ok thanks for the info, will look at that app. I was trying to customize the pop up menu...

Can you hide apps you don't use?
I think you need to use a separate app for that.

So I miss the vibrate on call connect feature I had on my old WinMo HTC Touch, any way to get this feature on my Epic
I believe there is a way... I haven't tested it out, but the setting is there. To access this, you need to create a shortcut to the proper settings menu, and therefore must have LauncherPro installed (dont need to be using it though)
Hold down on the screen like your going to add a widget or shortcut, select 'Shortcut->Activities->Call Settings->All Calls'. Then a shortcut will be copied to the screen on your phone, open it up and scroll to the bottom of that menu and select "Outgoing call vibration"
I was so excited.....but the setting didnt work, but wow I didnt know launcher pro could access so many hidden menus
does this work like regisrty edt on tp2? i sure do miss that app...if not, is there one for android like it?

Ive tried using both LaunchKey and ButtonRemapper but none seems to have an option to remap the search button open the APP DRAWER. Personally, i think theres no use for the search button when u have widgets and search apps. Its redundant.
Does anyone know of another app to do this? Or if this is even possible?
Bump. I would also like to see if this is possible.
Maybe somethis like this (bottom of first post under: Custom app launching)
I haven't tried it yet. But the idea seems simple.
Edit ramdisk to support custom script (some roms already have a blank script for this purpose)
Add an 'am start' command to the script. not sure what it should be.
I can launch home with 'am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n org.adwfreak/launcher/.Launcher' but im not sure how to tell adw to open the app drawer.
Then find a way to map the search key to that script.
Cm7 does this out of the box. Not sure if it needs to be an os level feature or if an app could pull it off.
Err nvm it does custom app launching but i don't see an option for app drawer
From something awesome
Ah. yes i see that now under cmsettings -> input settings
although im not sure if that makes it easier or not. it seems we would just need to add an option to the custom application menu to open the app drawer.
After looking at ADW source i don't think it is possible to open app drawer externally. It seems the showDrawer function is private and not listed in the manifest as an activity. So Unless there is an activity i don't know about: It's looking like this won't work.
bumping this to see if anyone else figured anything out
This can be done, but you need to be running CM7 and get an app called alt drawer. Set the search key to open the app and you get your app drawer. Also, on Moto phones there is an app called home smack that lets you remap long search press to an app. Also, there is an app called launchkey that lets you set long search to different things. Another option is an app called button remapper that lets you remap a key to something else. Most of these options require the alt drawer app or another app that opens the app drawer.

great idea, on this right now...
Hi, I must have delete some apk that stop me from adding using the default widget application. Can anyone upload it, thanks in advance.
think we'll need more info.. is this a specific widget or all widgets that you're having a problem with?
and a word of (fairly obvious) advice.. if you don't know what something does, leave it alone!

Hello, I cant find reminder in phone. Install apk dont work and galaxy apps and google apps dont find anything. Does somebody have working app? Sorry for english
You sure?
The app is there but you think to "need" to use it first. i.e. reject a call with a text etc and that will prompt the phone to launch the app for the first time. After that it will ask you if you wish to create a shortcut. I did this using a Nova Launcher activity widget to start the app and now I have the icon showing under the apps list as usual.

I have the same issue too. I see the reminder app in the apps installed list but nowhere as an icon or app in Samsung Experiece.
I tried the above method also but no prompt of reminder.

Just ask Bixby to set a Reminder for you, that's what I did and then I had the icon.

I don't have the guts to activate Bixby haha
If you don't want to try Bixby, try "Nova Launcher" and create an Activity widget. Use the widget to launch the Reminder MainUI applet
In settings, under apps, go into the reminder app and in the top right corner you will see the settings icon. Select that, toggle on the online storage and finish configuring. (Add places, etc.) After you do this you will see the app icon in your app drawer.
