[Q] Hide Apps from the App Drawer?

In Launcher Pro (or any other launcher with a 3D App Drawer that doesn't suck), can apps be hidden? I don't mean apps like bloatware apps, I mean apps that I don't want others to see. Can they be hidden?

GO Launcher EX can do it. It's free and my preferred launcher app, but some people don't like it.

I use the folder organiser app to create folder like the one you mentioned

You can't create folders in with the standard honeycomb launcher, try ADW EX

ES File Manager will do the trick, and a lot more

let me help a bit more here.
For some strange reason, google took out the default folders in honeycomb. So now you have to use a third party application, but don't worry because many of them are actually better, and you can also add a custom icon to your folder.
The three big ones are:
Folder Organizer (paid), allows you to make folders and give custom icons to any app you have installed. Lots of customization but the icons get a little smaller than the phone versions. You can also choose the order of the icons in your folder.
Apps Organizer (free). basically nothing more than putting your apps into folders. Also allows you to customize the icon of the folder. icons are phone size.
Smart Shortcuts (free). allows for apps, contacts, and bookmark folders with customiseable icons. no sorting. icons are phone size. Though the dev has told me personally that he's working on enabling the larger honeycomb icons.
there are others such as ES file manager but these are the 3 big ones. personally i use smart shortcuts on my transformer as well as folder organizer for custom icons (desktop visualizer doesn't work on honeycomb yet.

Thank for all you help guys!

[Q] sense + appdrawer

hey,
I wanna ask if it was possible to have HTC sense with a custom, more customizable app drawer like all the other home replacement app's app drawer. Cause i really want a more customizable app drawer without losing my sense widgets.

I'm afraid it cannot be done without major modifying of the ROM, which isn't easy.

You can try All Apps organizer.
It helps you customize the output and manage your apps by type.
But with sense enabled you won't have many customization on their stock app drawer.
You could also use a home app that looks alike and highly customizable (LauncherPro, adw.Launcher or go launcher....)

yea i'm using go launcher now. but im missing my sense widgets. just too refined. all apps organiser is it an app drawer or just an application?

You can find fine widgets for everything out there
Take a look at All App Organize
But don't you have one with goLauncher? I'm using LauncherPro and you can customize it.

homescreen folders?

Just checked it out. One of the coolest apps out!

I use Circle launcher and Folder Organizer

I asked the same-ish question myself a few weeks ago and after working my way through a few choices I found that adw launcher for the shortcuts and folder organizer were exactly what I wanted in terms of simplicity. I just checked out a few icon packs here and found some nice simple ones for the shortcuts.

I use folder organizer..

Trebuchet folders

Is there any way to create folders & manually sorting apps in trebuchet app drawer ??

x) you can create folders by dragging an icon over another
x) not so far i know in the app drawer from trebuchet launcher, but you can try nova launcher (its in google play store) where you can add tabs to the app drawer
