Launching your applications

This is one of the easiest things of T-UI. It's a launcher, and also a shell, and so:

>>settings
Launching: com.android.settings.Settings
>>play store
Launching: com.android.vending.AssetBrowserActivity

The best friend of those who forget: "apps"

The main feature of apps is showing you a list of all launchable apps (= an app that contains at least one activity whose Intent Filter contains the category "android.intent.category.LAUNCHER").

>>apps
A
   app1
   app2
   app3
B
   bapp1
   bapp2
   ...

The command apps has also some parameters that lets you do fantastic and incredible things:

• -h
• -uh
• -sh
• -st
• -ps
• -f

Hide and seek

You may want to hide some apps from T-UI, and let not them be launched. Am I the only who hates default apps I found in my new unrooted device? Let's make them disappear.

>>apps -h calendar
Calendar state: hidden
>>apps -h gmail
Gmail state: hidden

-h stands for "-hide", got it?

But.. hmm.. what?

>>apps -h whatsapp
WhatsApp state: hidden

How did it happened?? You hid WhatsApp. Your girlfriend will kill you if you don't reply her messages.

No problem:

>>apps -uh whatsapp
WhatsApp state: shown

-uh stands for "-unhide" now

And what if you forgot what you've hidden? -sh (-show hidden) is here to help you:

apps -sh
A
    hiddenApp1
    hiddenApp2
G
    hiddenGApp1
Z
    hiddenZApp1

###Play Store and Settings### You can use the parameters -st (= -settings) and -ps (= -play store) to reach easily the details pages an app.

>>apps -pt WhatsApp
Play Store page: com.whatsapp

###Force the launch of an app### Sometimes may happen that you are unable to launch a particular app. A user told me, some weeks ago, that he wasn't able to launch Samsung Help Center because it conflicted with the command help.

If you are in the same situation, just do:

>>apps -f samsung help center

-f stands for "-force"
