I did that in my ATT s2. However, i forgot how to. Can someone remind me this?
Right now the screen move left and right when swipping. Would like it locks in place.
Thanks
Looked to me like you could hit the menu button while at the home screen, select edit, and then drag the unused pages down to Remove...

I did remove all the empty screens. However the one page screen still moving itself a bit to left or right. How to completely lock? I think only scrolling wallpaper in TW in inter Note or ATT S2 can do it. Not our Note

Got my S2 today and love it. But I have a few questions.
1. When I delete items on my home screen and don't add any I get this dumb message that stays on the home screen that I can't get rid off it say
"Press and hold this page to add content"
Well I don't want anything on their, so how do I get rid of that?
Thanks..
Never seen that .
Home screen remove app
Edit

Also how do I rename a folder in the app drawer? I've tried everything and I can't seem to get it....

open the folder and long press the name and an edit box will pop up
When I do that it just drags the folder to the home screen. Its a folder I created to put all the bloatware into. I want to name it bloatware, but all it says is folder 1.
Edit
Add Folder
Drag Folder to Page
Enter Name Box Opens
TYPE NAME
Yes
Close
= named folder .

I have a different question re the home screen - can you set screen 3 to be the default screen the phone goes to when you press the home button? Kinda makes more since being able to scroll a screen left or right.. starting at 1 means you can only go one direction..

I'm sorry, what?? What are you talking about? Your post is so incoherent it's frustrating. How does this have anything to do with what falcon26 was asking?
@falcon26: This is apparently another one of AT&T's "bright" ideas, and I agree, I hate looking at it. I wish those fuktards at AT&T would stop wiping their stinky, sh!tty codemonkey fingers all over my device. I can't wait to get my Otterbox commuter so I can cover up the stupid AT&T logo on the front.
Ranting aside, I don't think this message displays on blank pages of the international variant of the SGH-i9100 (someone correct me if I'm mistaken). I'm sure there is a way to remove it, but I'm not sure what that is. I would definitely appreciate it if someone would chime in and offer a permanent solution (i.e. what code/picture to remove from whatever .xml/launcher file/directory, etc.), but in the mean time, I have a band-aid that works around this and ultimately accomplishes the same thing.
1. Go to https://market.android.com/details?id=org.hk.sticky
2. Install Sticky Widget
3. Add Sticky Widget to the screen you want to remove the "Press and hold this page to add content" message from.
4. When you add the widget a preferences screen will pop-up. Set the background to "Transparent" and press "Set".
4. Presto! No more idiot message. Just be mindful of where you put the widget so you don't press it by accident.
@micks_address:
1. From the Home screen, press the Menu button.
2. Press Edit. Thumbnails of all your homescreens will then appear in a matrix, with the "Remove" trashcan icon at the bottom.
3. Press the Menu button again.
4. Then press "Set as Home".
5. Press the thumbnail of the screen that you wish to become the default Home screen.
6. Press "Done"
7. Done

This does not work for me (have the same question), in step 3 I press Menu and nothing happens.
I am on stock KI1 ROM.
Reasons why people hating Touch Wiz 4?
Hi guys,
I just upgraded to the latest Checkrom v4 (from the last version of Checkrom), and now, if I scroll to page 2, and hit the home button, it will take me to page 3, and not page 1 (home page). Do you guys know why?
Input is greatly appreciated!
Thank you.

Hi mate,
that's correct.
I'm not on Checkrom, but I'm sure that he also has the modded TW launcher.
This one has some feautre more than standard samsungs TW launcher.
It's standard set to default homescreeen 3 (from 4)
Just press menu and then preference (not settings) to get in settings from launcher.
There u can f.ex. change the default homescreen (in "Homscreens") and order off apps in drawer (in "App-drawer") and so.
Just have a look on it.
Hope I helped.

Hello Hannibal,
Thank you so much for your reply, I appreciate it. It makes a lot of sense, however, I am unable to find the "preferences" you are referring to when i press menu. I only see Add, Wallpaper, Search, Notifications, Edit, Settings.
Am I missing something?
I am also using Widgetlocker.
Thank you!
If you press edit, do you see yellow ball with white pin inside? It marks says 'default screen' . But im on cm7 rom/adwlauncher tho.
Flashing your galaxy, press Y to continue..
Ok I'm sorry, like the preview post says, u have to hit "edit" then OR "menu".
I don't know which launcher he included in Checkrom.
Maybe u can choose default homscreen via the preview of all screens ("edit" or just pinch to zoom out)
Or, like me, u have to press "menu". (That would bring u to the settings menu I meant in my first post )
Sorry, my fold
CHEERS
Ok. When on any screen pinch (or menu/edit) to display all screens. Long press page 3 (home) and move it to page 1.
EDIT: Works on tw4.5 but not tw4. In tw4.5 the home screen shows a little house/home on the home screen which you can move anywhere.

Right, but when u don't have it, like TW4, u have to change default via the TW settings (press menu>menu>homscreens)
That what I'm talking about last post.
(My english isn't the best, I know )

Thank you guys for your help! I appreciate it.
On my S3, in the gallery, my friend who has the same phone has the delete icon in the top right corner when a picture is viewed in full screen, however mine is the slideshow button.
is there anyway to change it to the delete button?
my friend's came with her phone but mine didn't...
also next to it, i have the bluetooth shortcut and i was wondering if you can also change that.
Thanks

The gallery will have a slideshow button when within a folder where there are a lotta images.. The delete button will be visible when u press on any particular photo so that it is the only one on screen...
For your second qn, there are two buttons in the middle. One for share which contains all the sharing options. The next one can be set to any particular share feature (bluetooth, wifi direct etc) You need to hold the second button with one finger to change it.
Try it out. Hope I helped..
Hey All - I'm trying to move my blinkfeed homescreen as my right-most homescreen. Sense 5 doesn't seem to enable me to rearrange my home screen position... Anyone have a solution for this?
Blinkfeed is defaulted to the left side. You can't move it only the other screens are movable. Yes I know it sucks I already tried.

Ok no big deal that blinkfeed is defaulted to the left side. The issue is that I can't rearrange my other home screens either. If I want to move my home screen over, Id need to drop it and recreate it on a fresh blank screen!
Are you sure you can rearrange your other screens?
You can't rearrange the screens at this time but you can designate any one of the five possible screens as your home screen. I've been running Sense 5 for about a month and I've gotten used to having the left most screen as my homescreen. I'm hoping the Dev community for T-Mobile is as good as those for Sprint. If so, I'm sure there will be a fix that will allow us to have more than 5 screens and give us the option to rearrange them.
Ok thanks guys. I'll have to try it out and see if I can adjust.. I'm use to having my work stuff to on the left screens, my personal stuff on the right screens.
Just hold, then slide your screen up that you want as a "Home" screen (with the added panels/homescreens).
I hope someone can help me. After letting someone use my phone I now see a floating G and dots bar in the middle of my screen. Apparently the bar lets me know which screen I'm currently on in terms of number of screens. How can I move or remove this?
You can get rid of the "G" in Settings (probably under Home Screen), but the more direct way is:
Press and hold a vacant area of some screen. That will shrink the screen and show a bunch of installable apps.
Again, press a vacant area of the screen, and you will see all "enabled" screens (up to eight).
Drag the offending screen (the top left most) to the trash can.
Press the home button.
I think there's a way to get rid of the dots, but I'm not sure. I like them, so I've never had to research the issue.
