For creating a folder on the home screen. You should first drag one app over another. Which will create an option to combine and put both apps in an home screen folder. Stop dragging to confirm your choice. You can now add many more apps to the folder according to your choice. You can touch on the folder and then rename it by typing the desired name you want to give, on the place where written untitled.
Hit thanx if helped.

Ya but what about menu???likes all the apps are display..its for homescreen..
Try a different launcher... like for eg., next launcher or go launcher or something like tht which can meet ur requirements.
In cyanogen mod of yureka you have a option in settings>apps>protected apps. Just add the unwanted apps to the list of protected apps and you wont see them again until you unprotect them or you can create a folder for the apps on home screen and lock that folder and the apps won't show up anywhere else. Until you unlock the folder or remove the apps from protected apps.

Hello, for some reason when I press on the folder it doesn't show any of my files, only a transparent white window. Any advice?
I'm using a SD card.
bumping this thread
Can you be a little clearer? What folder, and where is it? Is this through a file explorer, or a folder on your home page?
Just give us more to go on

I don't know how to acces the media on my SD.
Pressing on folder shows a white transparent window.
What application are you trying to access it with? Talk me through from the beginning so I can see if I can help.

I have no idea, I just need to find the media that are on my SD.
Windows mobile had file explorer, does the latest NAND have it?
I've got no idea how to access it..
There are plenty of file explorers available from the market. You just need to search on there.
I personally use Root Explorer as it allows you to modify/copy/paste system files.
The folder you are probably trying to access is simply a virtual folder you have created on your android desktop. To use it you need to drag icons to it to organise stuff into groups etc.
What you should be doing to access your SD card is using an actual file explorer/manager app like the one described above. I personally use ASTRO File Manager though.
PS. Next time you ask for help please be more descriptive of your issue/problem.
This is best way to hide your folders in android and you don't require a software for it.
You just have to rename the folder starting with dot (.)
For eg. to hide
My folder
just rename it as
.myfolder
isn't that easy.

make a new file nd rename it to ".nomedia" .. put it in any folder u want to hide its contents..
I use an app called Hide It Pro (shown as Audio Manager in app drawer). Works like a charm. Even the fake Audio Manager can be used to adjust ringer/notification volume etc. Give it a try....

No real folder hide application on android ??
Hi !
I searched applications which could hide folder on my andorid phone incrementally. By saying this i mean that suppose i hide a folder and that folder is used by camera app. If i hide the folder then it shouldnot show on gallery but when camera is used, it can access the folder and save images in it but again if we go to gallery then it should not be shown. Eg: A camera app uses camera folder to put all the images taken. So if i hide camera folder then the camera can use it to save the folder yet not showing in the gallery. So i dont have to hide the pictures again when new are taken. Is there any app which can do this??

Use QuickPic to hide folders, but camera folder can't be hidden.
brother, This is basic things on androids.. I think you should look at this..
Basic of android
1.How to take a screenshot on my phone
2. How to format my phone (2 methods).
3. How to Hide File or Folder without application.
4. General profile mood to silent mood vice versa.
5. Start or end the Call pressing Button.
6. How to Root My Phone.
7. Track your lost phone.
8. How to Force Restart – Reboot my phone.
9. What is my Android version.
10. What to do when application doesn’t work.
What I want to do is create a short cut to a folder that is located on an external sd card and put it on my home screen.
I have tried alot of file managers and none I tried have this option. I did come across one fike manager which i could create a shortcut but it only had access to the internal memory.
Can anyone recommend a suitable app which i can install?
File manager HD works fine

I cant access the external SD card using file manager hd
Did you try to navigate back in the directory tree by pressing parent? You might need root for that.

What rom are you running???
If you are on Thor's rom he calls the external sdcard something else and most file managers won't see it with out editing the name.

If you're still on File manager HD, press HOME, and then UP and you'll see your external_sd. Otherwise it is located in mnt/ folder. If you're running thor's ROM 14.2 it is under mnt/Removable/MicroSD
shortcut to external sd

Hi all, by the life of me I was not able to create a shortcut with FM HD. A bookmark in FM HD yes, no problem.
I run stock rom.
I am running Thor's ROM 14.2
found it through File Manager HD, had to press Home and Up Twice and then in the Removable Folder. Thanks for that.
Now, back to my original query, I still am unable to create a short cut to my home screen. The options that presents include, Details, Open, Copy, Delete, Move, Rename, Permissions (all boxes ticked), Bookmark and Compress

Could be wrong here, but I don't think that's possible in Android. You can't put shortcuts (or linked files) on your Android desktop...at least the stock one (don't know if there's a launcher that has this capability). I have tried in many versions of Android with no success. You could, in a terminal, use Busybox to create a linked file/directory in /data/app or /data/app-private, but the link doesn't show up on the desktop (at least not for me).
With File Manager HD you can add a folder shortcut from the widget drawer, the far right tab (i'm on ICS so I can't check for the exact tab name). From there you can add a FMHD shortcut for a chosen folder.
Just installed File Browser Widget and I think it's a great little app you might want to try.

I know this might be too late but ES file Explorer can do sth like this. Simple long-press on a folred and choose "Shortcut" and you get one on your desktop.
Install File manager HD, go to the Widgets section on the apps drawer in the OS, and there is a widget for File Manager HD, add it to your home screen, it will then prompt you to create a shortcut to a folder of your choice, even one on the External SD

I was going to mention ES as well. They made it remarkably simple. Something that's kinda neat is that you can choose folder color between yellow and blue. Then, when you shortcut a folder, it will be the color of the folder at the time you created the shortcut. And it holds even after a reboot. Could be useful to have different colored shortcuts for organizing.
Es goes way beyond shortcuts, you get a full featured file browser with root browsing (in settings) as well as a network browser, ftp, file editor, permission editor... So much more.
I have a Nexus 4 running CyanogenMod 10.1. I want to hide the WhatsApp images folder. I have already tried placing a "." at the beginning of the file name and also adding a .nomedia file in to the WhatsApp images folder. Both methods hide the folder only until you receive or send an image on WhatsApp whereby the folder appears again.
Any help would be appreciated.
I don't entirely know if this would work because I haven't used whatsapp, so I don't know what their folder setup is like. You could try to put a .nomedia file in the folder above the images folders.
Eg. If the image folder is \SD-Card\Whatsapp\Images
put the .nomedia file in \SD-Card\Whatsapp\.nomedia
Thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately this gives the same result as described in my original post. It hides the folder temporarily until an image is sent or received on WhatsApp, whereby the folder appears again.
Any other sugesstions would be welcome.

Download Quickpic from Play Store and hide the folder.
P.S Once you hide the folder from Quickpic, it doesn't show up on the default Gallery app as well.
Ooh, I didn't know that. And Quickpic is an awesome image viewer/gallery anyways, so I already had it installed. Thanks for the tip!

its a stupid workaround but here.
rename the images folder to Whatsapp Images.bak
restart the phone
remove the new Whatsapp Images folder and rename the *.bak to the orignal folder name
I've tried all the methods you mention. I hided the folder in quickpic, but it doesn't work. I put a new file named .nomedia both in the whatsapp folder or in the whatsapp images folder, but it doesn't work (it hides the folder just untill you dont post or download an other images from whatsapp). I tried renaming the whatsapp images folder with the .bak but still doesn't work.
I have a new nexus 4. How can I hide this folder from my gallery?

You always make a folder named ".Pictures" or something with a ".nomedia" file in it somewhere on your phone and manually move whichever pictures you want to hide there.
EDIT: I searched "hide app" in the Play store and there's a few apps that claim they can hide pictures.

This is not the point. I don't want to hide pictures in a folder. What I would like to do is to hide the "whatsapp images" folder from the gallery. All the methods you mention in this thread are not valid for the nexus 4. Other solutions?

QuickPic is the way to go. The stock Gallery app should have been like it. All you have to do is to long press that folder, hit the menu button and choose exclude. Of course it only takes effect within QuickPic itself. Stock Gallery app sucks anyway.

Yeah, QuickPic doesn't support pictures taken using Photosphere. But its other advantages still outshine Gallery
Again, the point is not to hide some pictures. The point is to hide the whatsapp images folder from the gallery. Probably I'm not clear, I don't know, you keep giving solution on how to hide pictures.

Did you at least try it? I haven't, but I assume that the folder would be hidden after all the pictures are hidden. :S
The folder will be hidden until you will send or receive an other picture from whatsapp.
Nobody knows how to solve this problem?

Hi,
Could someone please tell me how to permanently get rid of the "Preload" folder on my rooted LG G6??
There is a way because i've manage it a long time ago but can't remember how i did this
My old G6 did'nt survive the impact with the floor, so i've bought a used one for the time being.
But this preload folder is really anoying........
Can someone PLEASE help me??
So are you just not wanting the folder to show up in your gallery?
After doing some searching, the gallery shouldn't scan hidden folders. You can hide the folder by going to your file manager and hiding that folder. Find that folder and add a ". " before the name.
Try that and let me know if it works.
