Just got my A7. On the homes page I have added a folder, renamed it. Now...does anybody know how to get bookmarks, apps etc. into the new empty folder?
I expected to be able to drag & drop, but that doesn't work. If I bring up the menu and select new (when the empty folder is open an empty black box) the new item I select appears on the home page, not in the folder.
Thanks for any help.
I already answered this in your other thread. Please use one thread, not a new one for every little question, it clutters the place up. Google may also end up being your friend, these are Android 101 questions.

Somehow I have removed all the shortcuts from my programs folder, i.e. they no longer show up when i press start, all i get is
Today
Programs
Settings
If I go into programs all i see is the games folder
I can still run the programs from their defualt folders.
Anyone know a quick way to reinstall all these shortcutS or am I going to have to do them all manually ?
Not sure i even know what files types (shortcuts) or where they should be.
I am assuming they should be in /windows/programs as it is nothing there ?

re
OK sorry for wasting yer time, admins remove or delete as you feel fit.
For the record though, not that anyone is likely to ever do this but....
This is how I believe I caused the problem
It started when I was trying to load an irc app on my phone.
I needed to put the app in /windows/startmenu and run from there
I copied across from my desktop
Using resco explorer I went into /windows/startmenu but it wasn't there.
So foolishly i started playing around and somehow in properties decided to untick/tick the hidden box for attributes
The result was that all files in /start menu/program folder were hidden
So by changing it back (somehow!!) through the properties, attributes, it's now all back.
So if your still reading this (fools) sorry, user error on a big scale.

1. When i put Colline theme i get really messy main screen (picasso-like cubics, colors). When i go to start menu everything is ok. when i back on the main screen, it happens again.
2. how its possible to put folders like in main memory. i would like to install programs in Program Files but it always install in root folder and now i have hundreds of folders.
Also in My Documents. I have no Picture or Photo folder. Every day another one.
This is not the case in Smartphones (2002,2003,2003se) automatically when you insert SD Card you get all of these folders.
3. i forgot...

Just got my HD2 and have been installing games and apps, but they are kind of all over the place, how can I put games in my "games" folder, how can I make folders etc. I hate when I install a game and its icon is in the start menu rather then in the "games" folder.
There are a couple of ways to do this... I use Resco Explorer and go straight to the start menu and cut and paste into new folders (if they don't already exist)...
There are also Apps that do this available here on XDA-Devs JSPA Program Manager is the one I recommend
some of the built in progs, like the HTC stuff, cant be moved, and will reappear with a plain icon if you move them.
I hope you don't mind answering a question for me or pointing me in the right direction. I turned off Sense UI to save battery life and use the Windows Default setting. On my Home screen, the category Pictures appears and if I swipe to the left or right, the thumbnails appear. However, if I tap the picture to open it, I get the following message:
"The file 'IMAG002' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstaling or restoring this file."
This issue came about after trying to move all my photos from the HD2 to a folder on my desktop. I'm not sure if I accidentally moved/deleted an essential file, but it's almost impossible to view photos unless I switch back to Sense UI. I scoured the forums for an hour with no luck, but I would appreciate any assistance you could provide.
If it helps, I'm using the ROM version (22.May.2010 WWE). Thanks!
Well you could try copying all the files to your desktop, then reformat the memory stick.
Taking for granted that you have downloaded 'Omarket' for your handset (an app that lets you download many more apps), search for File Explore Extension (found under Utilities/Plugins).
This will not install with an app icon to your start menu, it simply expands the functions of the existing file explorer. Once installed, if you click and hold the file giving you trouble, one of the options will allow you to assign any of the programs to open the file types of your choice. Obviously the assigned program must first be able to accommodate the file type for this to work.
This is the easiest (and most beneficial) solution I could think of. Hope I helped
Thanks everyone! SirPhunkee advised me that I was missing the "album.cache" file in my DCIM\MEDIA100 folder. I cleared the memory card and started over from scratch. Ultimately this corrected the issue. Thanks again!

Ok,
So i create a folder, on the home screen, to place all my games in, and another for all my different apps, all categorized. But after a while they seem to dissapear out of the folder. there still in the main menu area, but the shortcut in the folder is gone. i will add a couple back in there, then others will be gone after a little while, like an hour or so give or take...
any suggestions.
it mainly happens in the games folder, i have about 16 or 17 games when it starts to happen...
