Application menu organization

This seems like a dumb question but I haven't figured it out yet.
,
As you install appz, they get dropped into the appz menu in chronological order. Also the pages aren't full, before the next page gets added.
How do you fill in the open spots and get them in alphabetical order?

Open your applications, press menu button and then edit. You will be able to arrange your applications any way you like. There is also an option to create folders.

There's no way to do this automagically?
I have a ton of appz and want them to be alphabetical and every new app to be alphabetical.
The GSII Skyrocket does this??

I had the same problem too. Was a pain in the rear end. Until I found appzorter from the market. Works like a charm!!

[MOD][PORT]Search key to ICS recent apps for ICS Passion

This for ICS Passion v12 and V13 RC1. It also works on CM9 b15
This is not my work. It was coded by evilisto in the Nexus S forums. I only modified the key layouts for the Vibrant and the update script.
Here's evilisto's original thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21501238
I do not use my capacitive search button especially with the Google search bar persistant on my homescreen so this Mod will remap the search button to the ICS task switcher so you no longer have to long press the home button.
I have tested it with ICS Passion v12. Others have confirmed it works on Passion v13rc1 and CM9 b15.
As usual flash at your own risk.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17980900/Search_to_Recent-1.1_Passion.zip
It is a CWM flashable zip.
All credit for this goes to evilisto so please thank him for his work.

Thanks. To tell you the truth, I always forget the search button is there. I just never use it.

Since I use the search (just not as frequently) is there a way to add the search functionality when one long presses the search button?
I would like very much to use this mod but not completely lose the quick search if possible...

Unfortunately this replaces the search function. Leave things as is and use the home long press.
ICS on the nexus doesn't have a search key anymore. Just back home and resent tasks. This makes our phones the same. Sorry

Awesome! Will try when revert is posted
Vibrant + ICS

If you cant wait, just pull your current android policy.jar and flash. push back if it doesnt work.
I was already using from the post you linked. Nice to have a zip with correct keys.
Tested and confirmed working on CM9 build 15

Thanks. Working on Passion v12. Breathes some life into a button I haven't touched in like 2 years.

For people with the regular search... hit the search button and scroll to the right to get recent apps. I just always did it that way... But great mod anyways, thanks for posting

Annex1, that doesn't seem to be working for me... i remember that's how it worked with MIUI though. is that what you're thinking of?
at any rate, anyone know whether this will work with Passion v13? or will there be an update?
thanks!

[MOD]CM9 Search Key to Recent Apps v2 (atrix only) 2.23.2012

v2

compatible w/ volume rocker toggle in Turl v8 and Jokersax beta2

Sweet, thanks. So I haven't flashed any cm9 yet and I'm wondering, does the search button just do nothing by default on cm9 (before flashing this fix) ?

Is it suppose to unlock the screen by pressing the menu key? Mine does, just checking.
Menu unlock is not checked, I didnt try it without wake lock so maybe its cm9 thing.

volume wake MOD only

Well... since jokersax provided mirrors to those files I will put down my mirrors tomorow.
Hopefully we wont need then soon.

great work, i do have one thought though, maybe rather change the "settings" button to the apps buttons, since ics doesnt have a settings button by itself, and the search button is quite useful at times.

Volume rocker already has its own settings switch, so sooner or later it will be built in.
Remapping soft keys switch is a good idea for older phone, since new ics guidelines are no physical buttons. But thinking more about, which apk you will assign for a button that is a house drawing? Always the launcher I think. The same for the back and search buttons. Menu is the more "plastic" button.
btw, vol MOD working good for turls v6. Didn't test it to jokers beta.

I believe this mod acts as your task switcher when you press the search button. It was around for a while, but I think for 4.0.3. Testing this now.

Hi guys. And if I wanna go back to search by pressing the search key? Sorry but prefer to tap and hold home than use a second key just for that
Edit. re-flashed jokers stock cm 9 and got my search key back. What's the use of having a second key assigned to recent anyways? Just to press instead of press and hold? May be missing somethin here...
Sent from my Motorola Atrix 4G

yea..basically press n hold is almost like 2keypresses. it just feels rt to me to have single press on search key. just my opinion

I had tried this app a few days back... but due to the small screen size of our phones.. it just gets in the way!! anyway i dont like it that much but maby you will.. so give it a try!

good app bro :good:

The weird error message happens if you haven't configured anything in Level 1 (or level 2?). Just go and configure something there and it will go away. Or at least it did for me. BTW you have to hold the PieControl-activated area (right, bottom, left); a tap there won't do anything.
