Default Hiding Apss

I use app vault to remove apps from my app drawer that I do not use often. Restoring them is quick when I need to.

I could delete them now that I am rooted, but some of them are convenient at times.

The only issue I have is I have to reboot the phone to refresh the app drawer after hiding a app. Restoring is not an issue.

Any ideas on how to force a refresh of teh app drawer without a reboot?

Use Launcher pro.... No reboot needed to achieve the same result.

Also Titanium Backup allows you to "Freeze" and "UnFreeze" apps. For those that dont want to use Launcher Pro, yet still hide apps.
