Help Alphabetical apps drawer

[Teknik]

If you want to sort your apps drawer alphabetically without rooting go into your apps management and clear the data for TWlauncher. The only downside is that this will also reset all your home screens back to the factory defaults.
Oh and also any apps you install after that point will then be added to the bottom of the list :-/
Why samsung didnt add an option to sort alphabetically or sort by usage i dont know!

Good tip, I'll be using LauncherPro+, so no issue for me, but lots of users will be interested to know this.

Hey all. Just got my S2 and I tried what you said, but that doesn't work.

good tip! C64c, u could try list view alternatively, its always in alphabetical order. touchwiz is pretty good but it has its issues

Good enough tip to be re-posted in the Samsung Galaxy SII, Tips n Tricks thread, here:-

theres an app for that! I use appzorter lite. Orders your apps and fills in spaces. Really very good

personally, i like to sort the app drawer the way i like, dragging related apps together etc. the most annoying thing that sprung up on my phone (i posted about it a while back) is that after a reboot or a media scan, a couple of icons get pushed around. its not a particular set of icons, but just a few on the 7th or 8th page.. and i have to drag a few around eevery time i reboot.. very annoying. i thought it was a firmware problem, but its been like this thru KF2/KG2/3/6/5..anyway, i decided to go alphabetical too appzorter didnt work great for me, it filled each page only around half.. but it was enough to get started.. bit of dragging i was good to go

I personally like listview as I only use it for apps that I don't have on my homescreens. So go in there infrequently and have it all in one list and alphabetized.

Praise be to you. My biggest gripe with the phone is now sorted.
