This is probably a very silly question but how do you remove stock homescreens on the Atrix? I only need 4, not 7. This was a very easy thing to do on my Samsung Galayx. I´ve installed Zean Launcher and I´ve been using it with 4 homescreens but I´d like to run some tests with the stock motoblur launcher and I don´t want to keep 7 screens.
Come on...nobody? This sounds simple...
If I remember correctly you have to long click on the bottom where the launcher buttons are. I'm not sure but you have to long click somewhere

With stock motoblur you can't. That's why I use custom launchers

No it can definitely be done. I've done it I just can't remember how. Try double taping the screen until the homescreen selection comes up and then try long clicking one of the screens

From Motorola forums:
"There is no way to limit the number of screens unless you use a home replacement app."

Whilst I'm indeed loving the beauty of ICS, there's one thing that I simply cannot work out how to do. How do you create folders to group apps together on the menu?
I'm not talking about adding folders to the homescreen btw, I know how to do that. And I'm using Pure ICS instead of Touchwiz.

You should have put this in the Questions section, but a short answer for you: You can't.
As far as I know Touchwiz and GoLauncher are the only launchers with this feature.
Whoops sorry about that...
And drat... I guess I got used to using Touchwiz... I'm surprised Google haven't implemented this natively tbh, it's quite a basic feature... More so than copy/paste...

I rooted and deblurred my Photon, and now I'm happily running ADW Launcher with an ICS theme. Now, is there a way to change the lockscreen as well? I'd love to be able to access the camera directly from the lockscreen.
Use go locker.

I downloaded Go Locker and it made me download Go Launcher EX as well. Oh well, I was gonna try it anyway. It looks good so far.
You could always test each and see which is the most functional for you...you can also try locked roms such as rocko and imperial found in the development section
The most reliable one I've found is MiLocker, it has alot of options too.

I've come to the determination that WidgetLocker is the cheapest, most configurable lock screen.
GO Locker and Magic Locker are both free to install, but each theme can only be configured a little bit. Free ones are rare and limited, and you're asked to pay at every turn. It's really annoying. I scored WL for 99¢ on sale, but even for the full price of $2.99, it's worth it to pay once and never be bothered again.
Also, you can configure your launch screen pretty much any way you like. There are some cool unlock gimmicks I've seen other launchers use, and I wish WL would add some of them, but the fact that you can make your own lock screen is pretty cool. I wish I could configure one up and save it, and repeat, and have a gallery of lock screens I've made, like the others have, but I'm fine just evolving the one as I see fit.
WL doesn't work on its own, and I don't suppose any of them do. You have to download an app called "No Lock" to get rid of the stock lock screen.
And none of these are valid options if you want security. For that, you have to disable your custom lock screen and use the system one.
Actually MiLocker is totally free, doesn't ask for donations and after reboot the stock lock screen shows up once then it's just MiLocker. The only down side is many of the themes use Asia characters in them.

Is it compatible with the stock ROM, or MIUI only? I had a good time customizing the lockscreen and such when I ran MIUI on my EVO.
Yup, most current stock Blur Rom.

Ive decided to stick to TW this time, after using Apex launcher on myt S2. Is it possible to movie the 'apps' link at the bottom from the right hand side to the middle? I can seem to find a way.
That's not possible AFAIK. You need to use another launcher if you want that level of customization.

First post and new android user so please bear with me...
Scrolling wallpaper seems to work with Nova launcher if I choose from 'wallpaper' but if I choose an image from'gallery' I get forced to crop it. I was looking for some thoughts from experienced users on this...
I can't seem to find an answer on where to put an image so the device sees it as 'wallpaper' to see if that works or if I am just being a thick newbie and am missing something else. Ideas?

Samsung won't let you do it through gallery or anything of that sort. I've found when i use the app that I download the wallpaper with that you can set it as a background with that and it works fine and takes up the whole screen including the other windows. I use zedge.
Thanks, I will give that a try. I have a whack of pics that would be great if I could get them to scroll, I figured if I put them with the stock wallpapers then I might be able to trick it that way!

I did get the Zedge ones to scroll, thanks again. One step closer to manually setting it

Several apps in the market willl allow you to set a full image for your wallpaper. I use Wallpaper Setter.
