Check "set as default" and select the launcher you want to use from now on.
then how can i change the launcher?, there used to be a "homescreen selector"app provided by orange, but not since the update,

Did u follow the instructions above? If so, then all u have to do to change it to a DIFFERENT launcher is find the one that is currently being used in system settings-applications-clear default. Then u can choose again.... Try it...
i knew i could do it that way b4, but was looking for a widget or something to make it quicker, thanks anyhoo

Wasn't sure how to word this...I'm looking for an app/tweak that allows the home screens to reach the end and automatically go back to page one. Like it does when your on the applications pages.
I'm not rooted (yet) if this helps.
No need to root, just update to the latest update using kies. It is a feature of the latest version.

I used Kies and it says I'm on the latest update (2.3.4) and when I reach my last home screen I have to swipe back to the first one.
You could just try another launcher, for example go launcher has an option which lets you scroll screens circularly.

I could but I like samsungs actually. If they have enabled it I would like to have it working.
You've got two options then, wait till your carrier pushes the update or root and get the updated touchwiz.

Ok, thank you. Do you happen to have a quick link to the updated version?
You could always use TouchWiz 4.5? It's the stock launcher with tweaks (endless scrolling, themes, 3D app drawer etc.)
Here's a link: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061883

It's TouchWiz, you cannot change that actually. But my friend did replace that and SHE doesn't have any Android advanced knowledge (her phone is not even rooted)
Probably.. Try using GO SMS as the default for SMS related activity?

Hi guys.
I just got the SGS3, and I'm really missing the SGS2-keyboard.
What I'm missing is;
- The possibilty to actually add custom words to the list
- On the SGS2 i held down Q or P or something like that to get a smilies-menu
- The possibilty to put the marker in already written words, and switch alternatives within the suggestions.
Is it possible to get the old keyboard in my new SGS3?
just goto sgs2 forums and ask someone to upload the apk file, download it and install the same on your s3
You can add customs words, press "predictive text" and enter a sub-menu

No luck in the SGS2-forums so far.
WHere do you find this "predictive text"?
Arrgggh! Someone please help, as this is driving me nuts. I have set ADW EX as my default using Homeswitcher, but every time I press the home button, the evil TW is back.
It must be simple, but I'm missing it. Any help appreciated
first you need root and 2nd you need some kind of root explorer. then navigate to system/app choose seclauncher2 and rename it to seclauncher2.apk.bak. but keep you other launcher active.
or i think you can go to settings/apps and try to deactivate it but not sure if thats gonna work, that does not work with all apps
Go to
Settings > apps
Search for touchwhiz
Select
Then clear defaults
Press home key
Chose add as default
And boom

I have used Android since Cupcake on the HTC Dream/G1. I have used non-stock launchers for 2+ years. Trust me, this was different.
Normally, I install the new launcher, press home and then get asked which to use and set by default using the tick box. That should be it, but TW kept coming back as default. Even using home switcher, which has never failed me.

and u chose tw
now when ever u will click on the adw launcher icon in ur drawer it will the icons and stuff to adw like
but when u again click home key
it will take u back to default launcher and that was tw as selected

That's odd, as I have a Galaxy Note too, and that behaviour doesn't happen, even on ICS. Only the S3 confused me :-D
I have no issues using apex launcher on the s3, same as it has been for every other android version, maybe its an issue with the specific launchers you are using.
Does anybody know how I can change my lockscreen wallpaper. I have been looking everywhere and cannot seem to find where to change it.

Settings>lock screen>wallpaper (I think)
Already looked there no option to change it

Open any image file and hard press / keep press that image for 5 secs, you'll get options to set as Wall paper, in that select Lock Screen Wall paper.

That doesn't work either, I have no option to select it as my lockscreen wallpaper only the main wallpaper

The long press only works on samsung roms
Does anyone know how. Surely someone else is running cyanogenmod and know how

Lockscreen Background
Did you figure this one out already? I found it in Settings > Lock screen > Background - select "Custom image" and make sure you can browse to one using Gallery or File Manager

thanks dear

Same for me and for a more recent rom.
Is that for cm10 or cm10.1
I know that I'm late to the party, but I have some zedge wallpapers that I wanted to use as my lockscreen only. After much playing around, the only way I could get it to work on my lockscreen only, as to move the image to my gallery, and set it via there. It wouldn't take from my zedge wallpaper folder.
