I've recently upgraded to a Galaxy SIII, so i have been making all my folders and widgets again. Though it seems that now there is a weird pause whenever i close a widget pop up, the whole screen turns off, and then on again. Is there anything in the settings or known issues with an SIII that may cause this ?
[Widget] SiMi Folder 2.2 Free/Pro [UPDATED: 29.08.2011]
- Thread starter hateman
- Start date
Am I just blind or is there no option to limit the width of the actual pop-up? It's always going across the whole screen even when setting 1 column.
adding the wrong shortcut?
when trying to add simifolder shorcuts to the dock (i'm using go launcher ex), the wrong one gets added. this occurs consistently only for some folders (can't seem to find a pattern). instead of the correct one it is always the first folder that i created that gets added.
i have tried removing the erroring folder and re-creating it and i've also tried restarting phone. still the same result.
anyone else encountering this weird bug? maybe i'm doing something wrong here. thanks in advance.

Currently, my simi folder contacts widget doesn't automatically add new contacts into simi folder, which means I have to delete the widget and add it back again every single time I want to have my simi folder contacts updated.
Is there a way to make it auto update?

In Simi Folders....Just tap Tools / Reload Data Cache....it works when apps are updated also. Don't know about automating the process.

Cannot find downloaded icon packs
I am running a Nexus 4 with Nova Launcher. I am using this widget in hopes of adding a bit of customization and personality.
However, I cannot seem to be able to access the icon packs I have downloaded. I know they are there, because I can access them through Circle Launcher. But no matter what I do, I cannot find them on Simi.
I have uninstalled and re-installed both Simi Folder and a variety of icon packs. I have restarted my phone. I have cleared Simi Folder cache a few times, but nothing is working.
It is very frustrating because this widget is perfect, but I want to be able to use custom icons.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Simi Folder is long dead :ß But there are many good replacements. Before I changed from Nova to Lightning Launcher, I used this program for shortcutting custom folders to the desktop

Hey @wolverine73,
Did you ever find a way to add bookmarks? This is something that I've been trying to do for a while as well. Do you need to use the default android browser? I mostly use Chrome Dev. Is there a specific folder that holds bookmarks for SiMi?
I love this app! But I've been totally unable to find a solution for the bookmark thing thus far. rrrr. jk. Thanks guys!

I love the widget
However i am struggling with the bookmarks feature.
I try and add bookmarks to the folder during creation but it wont allow me to......
I use the 'Dolphin HD Browser' as my default and have about a dozen bookmarked sites on here and i can add these to my homesecreen but i cant for the life of me work out how to add them to the Simi folder Widget.
Do i need to be using the default android browser by any chance to allow this to work?
Any help would be great
Ditto on bookmarks
Hoping someone will see this. I've just discovered SimiFolder and really like it, especially teamed up with Desktop VisualizeR. I'm running v. 2.3 on a Nook Simple Touch e-reader (Android 2.1) and can't figure out the shortcut/bookmark thing.
I can place shortcuts on the home screen using either Opera Mobile or ES File Explorer. But SimiFolder apparently doesn't recognize them. I can bookmark in Opera Mobile and ES File Explorer. These also are not recognized. Unfortunately the "clipboard" has never really functioned on the NST and so "copy" from the URL of Opera Mobile also comes up "empty" to Desktop Visualizer.
Sort of stuck here. I want to add a few shortcuts which I have previously just displayed as icons on the ADW home screen. Now I want to put them into SimiFolders which are displayed in Desktop Visualizer widgets. My last hurdle.....

Hi
just a quick update that I am still working on the new Version,
or in other words I rebuild nearly everything to make SiMi Folder
faster.
The only problem is that with the next update you have to recreate
all your folders :-( Sorry.
I "hope" to have the new version available tomorrow evening.
Sorry for the delay.

How can a contacts and bookmarks widget work without that?
