Hey all...
Is there a way to organise your apps into folders, similary to how Iphone do ? or put them into folders in the apps draw ????
Thanks
Ian
You can create folders on your homescreen but I don't think you can do that in the app drawer.

I have a good number of games installed and they really clutter up my apps slider so I was wondering is there any way to put all the games in a folder to make things a little neater? I have tried and I could not find a good answer to this question so please do not yell at me if this has been asked before because I did look.
Thank you,
Ethan
There is no way to manipulate the app drawer to add folders to it. At least that I know of.

Look up Advanced Launcher.
You can create folders in the app drawer and hide apps as well.
It seems that this phone, like many others, has a Gallery app that finds every damn picture imaginable on your device and tries to load a preview of it. Why can't there just be a certain folder where pictures are stored instead? Is this possible? I don't want my phone to find every picture on my SD card - this is for people who place pics on their phone unknowing of where they put it.
Thanks
With cm7 it loads those thumbnails in no time!

Oh, nice solution.. NOT
I found the solution. Create a file in the directory where the pic(s) exist called ".nomedia" and Android will not index/load the images after reboot.

x2, I was about to tell you about this
or just download the QuickPic app from the Market - it's free and allows you to move, share, hide and all kinds of other functions Gallery doesn't do.
i recently downloaded a app called launcher icon and dock. i saved a lot of icon form it. and it all appear in the gallery. i can hardly find my camera folder.
how can i just hide all the icon in the gallery.(it make 1 icon 1 folder...)
i tried to use Linux file type with "." it works but all apps that is changed icon is affected, to back to original icon.
Are the files on your sd card?

Did you try putting a file called .nomedia in the folder where the icons are stored. That will exclude the files from the gallery. It will also exclude sub folders.

thanks for help, but it doesn't work...
You could switch to a different pic viewer, like Quickpic. It allows you to exclude folders from scanning. However, in the stock gallery, it still scans them. I also saw an app on the market that supposedly hides pics. I haven't tried it, so i couldn't tell you if it works.
Ok I've been reading forums and stuff on market about programs such as pandahome or betterbox. I am interested in actually designing my own in like and adobe ills, and photoshop. How do I assign an icon to a certain app?

You can use desktop visualizer, bettercut, launcher pro, etc. and assign the icons if you just want to keep them in a file in your SD card. Or you can swap out the images in the apk files.
The first option is much more common and will allow you to easily share your icons easily if you choose and you won't have to mess with the apks every time an app updates.
Ok great have the desktop app, so create an icon save to sd then just use the app to assign?

Yep, that's it.
Hello,
I have been trying to search for Folder creating app inside menu. I found many app but all of them are creating folder on home screen. I want to manage my all apps in different different folders accordingly. Before i was having samsung android phone and it was having such facility. But in sony its not available. So i cannot lock a folder containing all games. please help...
You mean in the app draw you want to create folders? I have used Sony phones for long time and this is one function I don't think Sony supports

Installed Apex Launcher Pro its great
You may try drag and drop an app over another. Also you must sort the app by own order.
