Root [CDMA] Change the "All Apps" button / icon?

[Chrishuff1]

I just sort of upgraded from a CM7 rooted Evo Shift to an Evo 3D. One thing I've noticed is the All Apps button on the 3D won't allow me to change what it points to. On the Shift I was able to have it launch a program called App Folders where I had my apps in different folders and such. Do I have to root my 3D to enable me to make that change or is it possible to do it without rooting?

Umm thought you were talking about rooting, my bad, not sure about that but I am sure someone will chime in. I don't believe it can be done, but I maybe wrong.

There are launchers you can use for that. But you were using CM7. You would probably have to be running Cyanogen mod on this phone to do exactly that. Now I have the VM version of the phone so I don't know if there is a CM7 for this phone but even so I say screw that. Too outdated. Use a CM9 ROM or a CM10.1 ROM. You need to be rooted, S-Offed, and downgrade the Bootloader if you want to run CM10.1 tho. CM9 is usable with the Juopunutbear Hboot that the S-Off program installs I believe tho. But you absolutely have to be S-Off to use a CyanogenMod ROM and either way you're gonna save yourself a lot of boot loops by obtaining S-Off anyways. Just Google search "Evo 3D CDMA S-Off Juopunutbear"

Ahh yes, the launcher! That did the trick! Didn't intend to root this one so I'm glad I can still do it without rooting. Thanks!

Essentially the reason why it worked on CM7 is because Cyanogenmod uses a custom launched called Trebuchet so that's why. Glad to hear it worked for you tho.
