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.

Hi is there a way to rearrange the app icons, I dont really care in what order but when you delete an app it leaves a space where the app used to be which looks weird.
Menu-button -> edit while in the drawer. Works just the way it does on the iphone from there on.

Thanks now I can drag them around but this still isnt that great if you have 7 or 8 pages each with a missing app in them takes a bit of fannying about to get thinks in order. isn't there an auto arrange or sorte by date/name etc?
still if not at least i can get things looking better so thank you.
It is strange how you can manually arrange the icons but there is no way to auto-arrange. Why not have some basic auto-arrange by alphabet name?
Is there a way to like arrange these by catagorie without having to arrange them yourself

I was wondering if there was a way to remove the words for the icons, so it would just say the app instead of the program but just the icon.
I have been missing around with different Home Screen launchers and you can do it with LauncherPro. Not sure what you are using though.
Possible with ADW as well. You can also use desktop visualizer.
i downloaded desktop vis. my only question is how would i go about changing it, do i need to customize my own desktop icons? or is there another way? thanks!

what ROM are you on?
There should be an option in both launchers to hide icon labels!

Hey im running the 2.2 on Clockwork.
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...

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
