hey...every time i connect the phone to my laptop the menu gets re-ordered..is there any way to stop this from happening?
 
lol....my phone is samsung galaxy y and it happens whenever i connect thru the data cable...i'm talking abt the app list or whatever...
 
Do you mount the sd card on the computer? Because if so apps moved to sd become unavailable to the phone, which I could imagine affecting this.

Also do you use a third party launcher app? It's the launcher which handles the app drawer, so different launchers would offer different options, but also a problem may be specific to that launcher.

yes i do mount the sd card when i need to transfer files...and i dont use 3rd party launcher apps...so i cant do anything abt it??
 
I'd have expected them to return to order when you disconnected, but if not then that's a problem with the Samsung launcher. You could ask in the Galaxy Y forum to see whether anyone else has seen this or has a fix.

Otherwise a different launcher might have different properties.

I actually use launchers which let me put shortcuts in the dock, and stick my main apps in Folder Organiser folders in the dock. So I only enter the drawer for my less used apps, and so have never needed to reorganise it. There are always different ways of doing stuff in Android :)
