Folder problem - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can anybody tell me how to fix this annoying problem? I've created 3 folders in menu to separate my games, app and multimedia app from each other. Everytime i turn off my phone to charge it,when i turn it on all the icons from my 3 folders are out of them. They do not stay in treir folders! It' s really really annoying to sort them everytime. It's like my phone cannot remember this task.I have stock 2.3.5.

Two suggestions:
1. Go to Settings menu => Applications => Manage applications => All => TwLauncher => Clear data.
You may have to reboot your phone.
2. Use another launcher app, such as Nemus Launcher from the Market to organize your apps.
App folders are also possible.
Good luck !

I don't have twlauncher

We all have Twlauncher on stock rom... Have you looked in the 'ALL' tab in the manage application settings?
Sent from my GT-I9100

Yes,I've looked in All (it's between "downloaded" tab and "on sd card tab"). It's not there. Maybe that is my problem. Can I add it or something?
As i said I'm on stock(orange carrier) 2.3.5.

[Q] 2 Dock Icons/App Disappeared

I was on the phone and the phone crashed on me. This is probably due to the FireFly Live Wallpaper that I was using. Because this is the 2nd time. When the phone restart, it went into safe mode, and after restarting, 2 of my dock icons are gone. I can't reinstate it.
I believe some system files are corrupted.
Can someone help me? I don't want to wipe all data again.
Thanks

oh man
press: app menu (application), settings button >>and add icons
I don't have the add icons selection. I press the application icon on the home screen, and then press the menu button, and choose edit. Under edit, i can only add folder or add page. I can also replace the remaining 2 icons by dragging the apllication icons down. But can't add new icons...
Sorry, I maybe a newbie, and need more help.

[Q] un-hide htc apps (mirror, car home, etc)

Unlocked and rooted now and I'm seeing all those htc apps in the system app folder. How do we get those to show in the app drawer?
Thanks and of course apologies if this has been asked, I searched.

I'm not rooted but I used an app called Any Cut to make shortcuts for hidden apps on my desktop. Apparently if you use ADW Launcher or Go Launcher they show up and are accessible.
Both ADWLauncher EX and LPP Plus show all the apps, I'm not sure why Sense doesn't .......

Just using es file explorer will let you create a shortcut.

So how would you do this??
I don't have ADW installed right now (I had to have my phone replaced) but when I did it showed a CAMCORDER icon in the app drawer that could be used as a home screen shortcut.
With the totally stock ROM etc, it doesn't show up anywhere but if you hit the search button & type in camcorder it shows the icon & opens & works fine.
How would you create a home screen shortcut for camcorder with the stock Sense ROM??

Really? Hidden apps?
Can someone make a list of what all there is missing?

Can't guarantee this is everything:
Camcorder
Car panel
Dock mode
Mirror
Quick lookup
Got it from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1367185&highlight=hiding
Thanks. That thread is nice and was what I was searching for.
Shortcuts are fine but I'm hoping to have them in the sense app drawer.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk
someone posted a thread a while back saying something about a Sense config file that has all of the apps and whether they are to be shown or hidden. now that we have perm root i'm sure that we could modify that file now but i can't find the thread that talked about it.
Edit: found it:

Credit goes to "scrosler"
Thanks. I just tried to remove the line referring to the mirror, but it's still hidden from the drawer. I might/might not try some more but in the meantime I'll have to use search option.
Thanks again. This thread is useless other than the links to the other thread

did you reboot after modifying it? you might have to, or you might have to clear the cache, or hell, you might have to do a data wipe before it takes effect
for us unrooted folk, how do we make shortcuts from ES?

That's good advice. I'm not home now but I did reboot. Clearing cache sounds like a good attempt. I'm going to be trying that!
Clearing cache wasn't enough.. I'll be trying data wipe later.
And.... Clearing cache and data wipe was a no go. Already had to do a restore and it's nice to know CWMs workin

I wasn't able to figure that out. How do we do that with es? I just get a shortcut to the apk not the app.

(Q) default phone/contacts

I was wanting to know the way to replace the system phone/contacts with rocketdial? I've tried this before,by deleting system phone and contacts thru TB but got tons of FCs.

you dont need to delete anything install app and then change phone and contact shortcuts icons in your home screen by the ones of the app
howver you can use system contacts if you want and after install the app if you go to a contact and press to make a call it will ask you wich dialer you want to use by definition you mark the box and choose app dialer and thats it...
i try it, before post sorry for my english but dont delete those apps from system the solution is right there.
just press thanks if i help you
Hi...
I am currently using Neko95 GingerSnap, and, since i tried MIUI, i loved the UI, i use ExDialer.
When i missed a call, the notification only disappear (automatic) if i open the stock app.
I Linked exdialer to ex partition of sd, rebooted and converted to sys app (Link2SD).
You still have the stock apps, but they are small...
The next thing that i will try, after consult the community if it works, is to, before flash, exchange the stock apps for the ones that i will use... (if someone that reads this can tell, please...)
With best regards, Shaib Lftg
Are you talking about extracting the rom than replace the phone and contacts apk with the dialer and contacts you plan on using ie...rocket dial and renaming it to phone.apk and vice versa

I don't like the idea of having multiple applications which have the same function on my phone... ie...
Stock browser-dolphin browser, stock mms-go SMS pro..you get the picture...

How to turn off voice?

Hi.
From some rwason when I open a folder or preview my home screens a voice message plays the action I'm doing.
For instance if I open a folder I hear 'folder opened'.
How can I stop it?
I'm using S3 launcher and it wasn't like this yesterday.
Thanks

I did.
I even un-installed talkback with titanium but it's still playing voice commands when I open folders and such.
You seemed to have this problem with your new S3 launcher.
Try to change it to see if the problem remains.
I found out it has to do with Iphone notification app. When the app privileges are off, I don't have this issue.

Default app pop up dialog?

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone knows how to force android to remember the default app? It seems to forget and constantly needs me to pick the default app.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
Just click on "always" and it should remember it for good (or until another app that can open this type of file/link is installed)
I've tried that :/
Keeps on asking, even after I've clicked "always". Nothing has been installed or updated that uses the files.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
That's an isolated case, you need to provide more info.
I'm on the latest UK firmware ELLA, the two programs that show up are ES Image Browser and Gallery.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
what action are you performing?
I downloaded an image from the Internet (dolphin browser) and opened it from the status bar. Also happened with mp3s. The dialog comes up every time.
