    Default Managing the spring board

    I have just jailbroken my iphone and wanted to see the best way to manage the icons on my spring board. So far I have come across the following:-

    1. Orbit - expose type application
    2. SpringSorter - sorts most used icons to the front
    3. CategoriesSB - put icons in folders
    4. 5 icon dock

    Is there an application to sort everything into alphabetical order? I would like the ability to freeze certain icons like app store, contacts etc

    Which do you guys use and why?

    Are there any better things out there that I have not yet come across?

    Thanks

    I have not used any of them for a long time, but recently I started using springsorter. I have a first page that is untouched by springsorter where my most important stuff is, and all pages after that are sorted by springsorter.
    Why I use it? because that way, the apps that I use most are at the top of a page, so I can find them quickly.

    I let springsorter sort per-page, and my second page holds "important apps", my third page holds games and my last page holds "stuff I rarely use" ...

    i just use manage them myself using the standard method.. and use iblank to create transparent icons.. i like having a blank wallpaper.. lol..

    have tried 5 icon dock but it looks out of place, categories i didnt like.. its worth spending the few minutes in itunes arranging them the way you like..

    With categoriessb is there a way to have them scrolling left and right like a normal iPhone screen instead of a downward list?

    What happens with categoriessb if you do a spring board reset?
