My Samsung Galaxy Exhibit is my first touch screen phone, so please bear with me. I was adjusting the apps and settings on my phone when I accidentally erased the Favorite Apps and Favorite Settings pages. I am in Easy Mode, and there are now two blank pages where they used to be. I know that I can just drag apps to the pages, but 1) the Favorite Apps box was more organized and 2) I can't seem to drag any settings to the pages. This isn't an extremely important issue, but I would still appreciate any help on this matter.
*I fixed my problem by chance; the favorites boxes are Widgets. Now I don't know how to delete this thread.*

tw allows you to edit how many home screens you have, which is nice because seven just seems like too many for me. however, it always keeps the default home screen at 4, which is really ridiculous. so if I want to have 5 home screens, my default home screen will always be 4...I have searched everywhere and cannot find a solution for this that is not a launcher app. which I don't really want to do because I really like touch wiz. Is there a solution to this problem or not?
also if any dev would maybe want to include something like this in their build? not sure if it is a pressing issue with anyone else I'm just annoyed by the blatant oversight on samsungs behalf.

^that's not constructive.
Get LauncherPro. This will solve your problems.
cant say i figured out how to edit the default home action.
but i suggest keeping all 7 possible windows, and keeping your "home" stuff on page #4. if you dont wanna use the "farther out" pages like #1 and #7 then leave em blank, thats what I do.
Which Screen?
Which screen do you want for your home-screen? An example of how I set a screen as home.
I have 3 screens, but TW wants screen 3 to be home. I want screen 2 to be home.
I add widgets and shortcuts to screen 1 and 2 and delete all screens besides those two.
That defaults home to screen 2.
I then try to add a widget that will not fit on either screen.
TW then automatically adds an additional screen to compensate for the new widget; screen 3.
I then delete the widget and have 3 screens with screen 2 as home.
TouchwizGTG, look it up.

Just pinch and zoom out on the current homescreen. It will pull up a veiw of all your screens. There you can move them around and delete unwanted pages.
One thing I know is the Verison fascinate ( there galaxy S ) you can select which screen is there home on the tw launcher.
You might try getting one of there roms and pulling their launcher out of it and putting it in yours.
Make sure you backup your good TW launcher.
Make sure you have another launcher installed. ( just in case it dosen't work...
Good luck...
Sent from my Vibrant running TW's latest rom, whatever that may be.
hello everyone
i'm facing some software problems, the mini diary icon move it self to page 3 on app menu and every time i move it back to page2 it move it self to page3 next day, its not that big deal, but you know, even sometimes the 4 main shortcuts in the bottom (dialer, contacts, messaging and apps) disappear and 4 other apps take their place, do you think i should change the rom? by the way im using an official rom
thanks in advance
Hi! I also have this problem. I'm also on stock (2.3.5)I have noticed the problem after updating the os. Besides your problem,mine cannot hold the icons in folders. I put them in,but after i restat the phone they are allover the menu list. Any fix, anybody? I heard the problem is the launcher...
Samsung Galaxy s6 edge G925T
For various reasons, someone would want to use safe mode. However, after reverting back to normal mode, some apps are literally missing from the app drawer.
Permanent Fix
Force stop the application called Touch Wiz in the application manager and clear the data. The other fix does not fix the problem if you switch from Easy mode back to normal. This will reset the homescreen, wall papers, and the app drawer. You can reset easy mode by clearing the data from Touch Wiz Easy in the application manager.
Temporary Fix (There isn't any good reason to leave a problem unsolved, but I digress)
To fix this on the Samsung S6, turn on easy mode in the Settings app, under the personal tab, in the Easy Mode menu. The apps will reappear in the app drawer. However, they won't be in their original folders. They will be scattered as if the folders never existed This may also be the only way to refresh the app drawer for the S6 and S6 Edge. Thanks for reading!
Hi I have Galaxy s7 edge and i have always been able to add my favourite apps to the Favourites Tray at the bottom of the screen which scrolled enabling me to add several apps ,
But for some reason the tray has stopped scrolling, can anyone tell me how to get it scrolling again.
The App pages scroll but the tray wont.
I`m using Apex Launcher Pro.
ive Found the answer
i found the answer to my question which was in Apex settings--Docking---Dock pages was set to one so changed to 5 which is Max.
Its so satisfying when you can solve it yourself .
Anyway this may be useful to somebody else with the same problem.
Hello fellow Android users.
I've always been obsessed with customizing the functionality of my devices to make it really practical to use.
I've been playing with the settings of the Xiaomi Redmi 9 for a week now and everything is set to perfection except one thing which is not available in the default settings but would be incredibly convenient, not only for me but for many people too.
I set all the apps I use in one single home screen (not multiple pages). The ones that don't fit there are all in one folder and that uses up only one button slot.
Since I don't have multiple pages for the apps, the swipe left and swipe right functions are available for other useful things, I'd like to set that up to be shortcuts to apps that I use a lot, like whatsapp and gmail. This would also free 2 slots in my home screen.
I suspect there's a way to do it, just don't know how and have tried several google searches like "how to assign left and right swipe functions on android home screen" or "how to customize left and right swipe on android home screen" and many other similar combinations of words. Found nothing.
Does anyone know if there's an app or a mod that allows you that level of customization? I'm a video editor and I'm not very educated in programing android apps or anything similar.
Hope someone can give me a hint. Thanks a lot in advance. Greetings from Barcelona, where many of us are locked down and unemployed :cyclops:
