Create Folder in Menu Grid


Recommended Posts

Hi guys, I've tried searching for this but came up with nothing. Basically what I want to do is create a folder in the main menu so that I can place all of my Games into it so that I don't have to go hunting through loads of Apps to find the games I want, now I know you can create folders on the home screen but I want to create a folder on the main menu, then move the games I want from the main menu into the folder, is this possible?

Fair enough then lol. Strange just how much you can do on an Andorid phone yet you can't hide or move apps on the homescreen

You can create a folder for this on the home screen.

From a home screen with enough space for a couple of items, tap +

Folder

New Folder

Tap this New Folder you just created

Hold down on white name bar at top and rename to whatever you like

ok

tap +

Shortcut

Program

Tap the program you want to add

Drag this shortcut to the folder

Job done and repeat steps 6 onwards for more shortcuts

Cheers for the reply but I knew you could do it this way, what I wanted to do was add a folder on the main menu (menu where all your apps are displayed) and then be able to remove them from the main menu and then add them to the folder I created, but thanks anyway, suppose I will just have to do it this way

Try Apps Organiser free from the market. Works well for me!

Cool glad you like it, works well and solves the problem. I think you should be able to do this in the native apps menu - e.g create folders, seems another basic functionality google/htc missed?!

Hi you can use AdvancedLauncher - a home replacement, which is like a stock android home screen, but you can have more than 3 screens, and you can also create folders in the drawer menu, and hide apps too. I'm not sure if it works on a HTC hero, but it works on my T-mobile Pulse.

I've attached an apk.

Thanks for this, seems like exactly what I'm looking for but after having a read into it, it seems like this will replace my Sense UI and change it to the default Google UI, shame it's a full home replacement and not just an app :-(
