Is there any way to do this on stock 4.1.2 touchwiz?
I like to have an empty home screen on my home screen list that I go to when I just want to see the wallpaper... And it's annoying to have that text always there. I know how to add stuff to the home screen, and I have lots of stuff on my other home screens, I don't need Samsung to tell me how.
I think you just need to add something to an empty screen and then the text disappears forever
I hadn't seen that text on my s3 for a long time (with 3 empty screens)

Is there any way to change the lower 4 icons, or at least set it back to default? I lost my Phone and Contacts icon, just Messaging and Applications are showing.
Not sure how this happened, it started somewhere between updating to WKE2 -> Rooting -> Adding the stock kernel back again -> Freezing some apps. I have unfrozen all apps nog, but the 2 icons have not come back to the static buttons at the bottom. I can however see them in Applications.
BTW, besides than this WKE2 seems to be running smooth for me, was a little worried after seeing some other threads.
in the app drawer you can hit the left soft key -> edit and just drag anything u like to the dock.
Hah, I *am* a TouchWiz noob. Thanks!
I must be doing something wrong as i cant get the bottom 4 apps to change. I can customise the othe pages but not the 4 apps on the home page. Any futher help for a noob.

Open up the App Drawer, hit 'Menu' (left softkey), drag what icon you want out and replace it with what you want.
Bare in mind you can only replace three of the four icons.
Many thanks for the pointers, got it sorted.

This is really starting to get in my nerves now that when in an app (especially XDA, FB, Tapatalk) when I press back instead of going to the previous screen it either takes me to the home page or my home screen.
I''ve tried all 3 speed settings on the tap and hold which helped a couple of apps but it sit does it I most.
Anyone else suffer this?

could it b that the app doesnt propely remain in memory? Meaning that if u press the back button once there isn't anything to return to than the home screen or homepage.

It seems to be like this for most apps though.
I have a few niggles with the phone like this, message notification, reception (my T-Mob wireless pointer is far faster on same network)it puts a full stop in front of a lot of words just to name a couple so going to take it back for a replacement.

Is it possible? For me its just a wasted home screen and annoying that the phone likes to default to it as the default home screen. Anyone else feel like Sense 5 would be better without it?

The only way to "disable" blinkfeed currently is to not set anything up and to set another screen as your home screen. It will still be sitting there on the far left, but ignorance is bliss, so you just don't swipe too far left. LOL I'm sure it will come with time, but the developers are still concentrating on getting all the bugs out before they start working on the tweaks.
You can just set a different homescreen as the default one.

On your HTC One Home Screen just swipe to left.
Just tap and hold on any blank area of the screen.
A Panel will appear on the top. From the available panel, you can set one as your alternative to BlinkFeed. Just tap and drag the panel you wish to set it as home screen. Drag the panel to “Set as home”.

Same here. At first I was like "What is this garbage???"
But after using it for some time now, I really like it. It is a great content delivery vehicle, and honestly has made twitter something enjoyable now.
I hated and despised blinkfeed to begin with. Eventually I kinda grew to it. Only have my Twitter feed instead of FB and all that going to it. Quite useful now.

Hi y'all,
When i move from screen to screen, the icons move to let me know i've reached the end. (See attached pics). I love the look and was wondering if it can be made to always show angled? Not just when I reach the end of scrolling.

I have literally had my phone for less than a few hours. But I thought it would be a great idea to share likes and dislikes.
Little bit of background, I am coming from a Note 2, so most of my likes/dislikes will be catered toward the upgrade from the Note 2.
Likes -
Mostly Everything LOL,
the screen resolution
the vibrant colors,
super fast,
the plethora of options,
blocking mode finally works,
no wifi nag notification,
wifi toggle works.
Dislikes -
The internet browser no longer sync with google,
can not use multiple lock screen widgets w/password or pattern lock,
4x4 grid on touchwiz (will be switching to nova).
I will update my list once I get to fully dive in. But so far 9.9999999999/10
I had mine for about an half hour. The best thing so far to me is the settings screen is 1 menu instead of 4 tabs . Sometimes its just the little things
Loving mostly everything, but again have only messed with it for a short time.
Only gripes so far is font sizes and in general DPI is just way too big and obnoxious. And lag when typing on the keyboard.
Let's go root!

We need root ASAP lol.

Yep. One screen.
Keyboard is amazing, no need for swiftkey.
Id rather have the tabs so you dont have to scroll dow a huge list like on my note 2. But ghsts not a big deal. Im glad you can use blocking mode, and the wifi is back to normal.

On the Verizon Model is the gallery as slow as we have been seeing in the review units?

You can change that in the messenger app settings. Enable message preview and it will scroll the message in the status bar like normal.
I'm so jealous right now. I would have mine now too, if I didn't change the shipping address to the correct one. So they can't ship it until tomorrow. So i am going to call to see if I can pick it up later this evening...

Agree with pretty much all of the likes so far, which is mostly everything about the device. My 4G speeds seem to have improved too.
Some nitpicks:
-new S-Pen feels much cheaply made than Note 2's
-Flipbook keeps getting activated when I hit the home button and accidentally brush by the screen
-Screen brightness range is WAY TOO SMALL (minimum brightness is too bright)
Several complains: desktop view does not stay on. I do not see the Note 2 developers options. I cannot remove the Verizon bookmarks as I was able to do before and restore from a save.
I think u have to tap on something in the menu 7 times to get dev options to show up. Saw it in a review somewhere
