Samsung galaxy s2 problem

There is an annoying problem with the current Android version where if apps are installed to an external card the app icons reshuffle and move every time you restart your galaxy s2 or use a task killer. You tend to end up with a lot more screens than you had before and because your icons get moved, it then stops you finding your apps at a glance. I have found a way to resolve this but only if your apps are stored on internal storage. You will need to navigate to Applications, Settings, Applications, Manage Applications and then click All. Scroll to TwLauncher and click on it. Clear data and cache (this resets your home screen to original settings but all your apps and app screens will still be there). Now you will need to restart your phone and then set your app icons as you would like. They will now stay in place.

My best Android Apps :)

Just wanted to shere some of my best apps that i use on my Samsung Galaxy S2. It's more of the everyday apps as opposed to the technical operational Apps. First of all i just have to show you my home screen. The apps i use more frequently have widgets or shortcuts on the homescreen. If you look on the top left, you will see 6 degrees in blue. This is the accuweather app whick i have found to be very reliable. Although android phones come with accuweather, you will need to download the one from the market which seems to do a lot more. I use ebay, facebook, twitter, foursquare, formspring and google plus a lot and have these apps from these developers as opposed to third party. Infact, Google+, twitter and facebook recently got new look updates and i'll be the first to admit that they now offer a very intense user experience. My other apps are the LLoyds and natwest banking apps, lottery results, bible, bbc, Flashlight, groupon, argos, nectar, premier league, linkedin, google
