Sorry if this has been asked before but i need to hide some apps to remove clutter from my drawer. Is there any way this can be done without using Launcher pro? Thanks.

yup just open the drawer and click menu and then chose group, click new catalog and name it whatever you want...then once that group is selected click menu then setup up group...click what you want to be in the drawer and then your done...

[Q] TouchWiz program icons

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

Arranging Apps

Hey guys,
Is there an app that auto arranges the app drawer or a way to arrange the app drawer on my desktop somehow?
Thanks
I recommend https://market.android.com/details?id=com.abcOrganizer&hl=en been using it now ages and can access all my apps instantly after you arrange them in whatever order you want them to be in.
The main thing is that I really hate arranging apps in the normal app drawer... it takes forever. I'm looking for an fast and easy way to do it.

Which launcher do you use?
If you're using touchwiz you can try "AppZorter" in the market.
I'm using touchwiz. Just making sure I'm clear: I am looking to clean up the app drawer and not the screens.

If what you mean by clean up is to alphabetize and fill in the gaps found in the app drawer then the app I recommended earlier (AppZorter) will do the job for you.
Appzorter. Case closed.

YES!
Everything you're searching for is waiting inside the database (-files)
Just backup once you arranged your apps and simply restore after each firmware flash...

Another simplest way is Home screen -> Applications -> Menu -> List view.
It will arrange all ur apps view alphabetically.

Did you just delete the short cut or can't see the app tab in your app drawer?

If you're talking about the app drawer icon then just press on a plus and press 'app drawer icon'.
Thanks to you both - now sorted!

You can't. In addition, if you change an icon and then delete it, you have to remake the icon.

You should be able to double-click the app drawer icon, choose Edit, select the the current icon and from there, you can choose any icon, picture or photo as the app icon's replacement.
Icons can be selected from themes, icon packages, your own pictures, etc. Google Play store is your friend as are the plethora of FAQs found by using the search function.
Is this your first Android phone? Regardless, you have a lot of reading before you.

Actually, I have never used a stock launcher, short of the original ADW Launcher.
I mindlessly change the launcher right after flashing a ROM and never considered it.
The very thought of it being a home launcher issue never crossed my mind.
Thanks for pointing out my oversight. :-\

Yes I did, and was a crafty update because I only usually get it through samsung AppStore, but this time it came through google playstore. Have disabled the app now.
