Hello all I seem to be having the same problem another person was having here is the link to his post http://forum.androidcentral.com/general-help-how/23252-folder-problem.html

The only reason I am starting a new thread is the suggestion he was given does not work for me, but it is the same issue.

I created folders on my Droid X when I try to send any app to the trash bin I long press and as soon as I go to bring it to the trash it either opens up a different app or resorts to the home screen. It happens with any app in any folder. I can delete the entire folder, and create a new one but once I add apps again, and try just to delete the app it again goes back to the home screen or opens another program. The other issue if I try to drag a folder to another one of the seven windows it leaves one copy on the window I am moving from, and puts a new copy on the other window. If I try to delete the folder from the old window it deletes the duplicate as well.

My droid is running 2.1 update1 it is rooted these are the apps I have installed

adfree
android vnc
angry birds
barcode scanner
cachemate for rootusers free
cleveland brown soundboard
connectbot
Genius Soundboard
K-9 Mail
labyrinth lite
live holdem
papertoss
penny
peter griffin soundboard
root explorer
speedtest
step brothers soundboard
stewie family guy soundboard
the hangover soundboard
google voice
where's my droid
wireless tether
toss it
plus the bloat wear

Any help would be greatly appreciated
 
I think you need to do a middle step in the delete process...

press/hold icon ... wait until the folder disappears and you are holding the app icon (still pressed) on the actual screen with the trash can at the bottom ... drag/drop into trash can.

Works for me. Hope this helps.
 
Yeah I have done that forgot to include that part, but it still does not work. It orginally was working fine, but do not know at what point it stopped working
 
Okay I have found out something new when a folder is in the window all the way to the left I can not delete applications in the folder. However when the folder is in any other window I can delete the application.. Any ideas??
