Hi all. I'm using ARHD 9.1 and I think it's a really great rom. I was wondering if anyone here knows a tweak to enable homescreen swap in the hs settings. Maybe it's already been done with xf or it will be soon, but for now, I can't access the modules repository. thk.
On the HTC One a feature allows changing home screen
1) go to settings
2) select personalize
3) select customize home screen
4) long press the screen you want as home , then drag up to set as home
Hope this helps

Thanks for the reply. Yes, that I know. I mean (sorry, english not my first language) is changing the order of the 5 different homescreens, like you swap icons or widget in one homescreen. I know third party launcher (like GO launcher EX) have this feature, but I'd like to have it in ARHD SENSE and being able to rearrange my desktop from time to time. Don't you?

One appears to be android without senseUI.. which boots up automatically.
The other is Sense.
below these two options is a don't ask me again.
Now If I choose one of these to be the default, is there any alternative method between navigating between the 2? perhaps with a shortcut icon on the home screens?
PErfect! [This message is now long enough to post]
If you dont have homeswitcher.. or you dont plain on every switching agian.. The manual way to switch is....
Go to setting>applications>manage applications
Find the launcher that is set as your default. Htc Sense, Launcher, helix...
Then click on it and scroll down and hit "clear default"
Press the home key again, and it will ask what home screen to use.
Hi guys, first post! Loving the forum by the way, very helpful. I'm not sure if this is the right board to post it on but I need help with the Launcher Pro shortcut editor / creator. Basically all I want to do is to create a dock shortcut that toggles wifi, and maybe one for mobile data so that it is available easily on any of my homescreens. Is this possible? I don't really understand the editor but it would seem possible is anyone knew the intent etc for this action?
Looking forward to any suggestions!
Mark
Anyone at all?
no idea how to do it - but there are plenty of other apps that will do that for you
Possible - Try Tasker
Don't think this would be possible as the dock can only hold shortcuts, not widgets.

Why don't you use the default power widget?
But Tasker allows shortcuts - Task
you can use quickdesk. its pretty much a second home on top of the existing main home your using like launcherpro. you just double tap home button and brings up an overlay of anything you want to put on there for shortcuts or widgets. pretty handy and accessible while doing anything like being on the phone. just double tap home and there ya go. i know its not what your wanting by the post. but it does do pretty good.
Thanks for the replys guys, most helpful! Yeah not as keen on a widget, wanted it on the dock so it's there which ever screen I'm in and doesn't take up any extra real estate on screen. I'll give that quick desk a blast though
I just installed this rom, but I am facing some issues:
1. At startup Launcher pro is fails to launch, I need to force close it all the time.
2. When I open & close an app from app drawer, phone doesn't returns to it's app drawer screen, instead it goes tohome screen.
3. I tried the camera.apk , but it doesn't zoom, even after setting volume keys to do that operation.
4. Contacts looks very messed up & mms.apk don't have option to select the contacts, they only appears when i start typing letters.
Please tell me how make the whole appearance more easy & functional. Thanks
Please help me, my son accidentally changed the default homescreen to a rotating 3D homescreen how can I set it back to the default home screen?
Please show me the steps on how to do this. Thanks guys.

Simplest way it's download another launcher in then it will give toy then choice to choose from that or stock when you press home
You can also uninstall from the market just select menu so you know the name sounds like sb shell launcher

It was change to Live wallpapers..by your son accidentally
you can press on the homescreen and a popup menu will appear, from there
choose wallpapers then choose wallpaper gallery and change your wallpaper
thats it..
by the way I hope you could specify a little more so that we can help..
hope this help in anyway..
Assuming you're talking about an alternative launcher, and you want to go back to the original Samsung one, you would do it as follows. Tap Settings on the home screen, Applications, and Manage applications. Now mine is ADW Launcher, so I'd tap that, but if yours is a different one, tap that. If you don't know which one it is, just look through the list for a likely candidate. If it isn't on the Thir-party tab, you could try All. Anyway, once you've found the launcher, tap it, and on the next screen tap Clear defaults. Close all screens. Now back on the home screen, tap the Home button. It should open a window where you can select Use by default for this action. Tap that, and then Samsung Home. From now on the original Samsung launcher will be used.
Thanks guys for the tips...it's working now
As the title asks. GB had an option in Settings. But ICS doesn't. Anybody know how to assign different quicklaunch?

Do you mean the double-click on Home button shortcut? That has been moved to the Accessibility section of the config. Otherwise I'm not sure what you are referring to.. so hope this helps!
I think he may be referring to the search+"*" like search+y used to bring up YouTube... I remember there being a topic on this in soak test but I do not recall the solution...
Sent from my DROID4 using xda app-developers app
This was the workaround for the droid 3, but I believe it will work for the droid 4 also.
Nevermind I figured out a workaround via Google. Pain in the ass there has to be a way to unhide it but if anyone is interested the steps I took were...
1. Must be using either nova or apex launcher
2. Long press on home screen and select shortcuts
3. Select activities (for whichever launcher you are using nova or apex)
4. Scroll down and select settings
5. Scroll down and select Quick Launch (the first one) and it should create the shortcut icon on your desktop
The shortcut takes you to the old quick Launch menu that allows you to assign the keys but I don't know where Google hid it thru the regular menu. Hope this helps anyone as much as it's gonna help me if not then what the hell you read it for? Lol

Works fine if you install a cm or aokp rom first. I missed blinkfeed too much though, had to switch back to sense 5.5.
well it seems to work fine if you do the following:
Long press the home screen, select Settings. Select Voice. Select Language to change the default. Change to another language, I choose English – UK. Hit Home. Do a Google Search. Repeat the first three steps. Change back to English – US.
works now !!!!

if you hold down the home button you can get the settings menu, from there the only way I see is by adding widgets to more than one screen therefore creating more home screens at the same time. after that just hold the screens to rearrange !!!!

Thanks for your reply. But I know how to add more screens.. I just need to know how to set a default homescreen, for example I want screen 2 to be my home screen instead of screen 1.

Yes, I am also interested in this. I liked how jelly bean had my middle screen default. Therefore, I only had to swipe a max of twice in either direction. Now I have to swipe 4 times to get to the far right screen.
I was unable to use any of these .apks due to the 'unable to parse package' error. I fixed permissions in Root Explorer and still no go. Anybody else have this happen?
Dang, im still getting a force close even after changing the language to uk english and back.

I have to occasionally do it. I'm not sure if that's normal or not, but it works most of the time. Weird issue.
