Setting Default Home Screen in 4.3 Update - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys
hopefully a stupid question.
I have just updated to the new OTA 4.3 update, when I long press on a home screen to go into the widget selection screen I can see the option o set a default home screen
however when I start to drag a home screen over to he set default option, the option disappears.
what am I doing wrong, how can I stop Blinkfeed being the default home page

You have to press on another page then press on set as home

thanks Guich, told you it was a stupid question

Rickim, In the screen where you click to use one of the options, and you clicked the check box accidently to always use the original home app, a message should have been present telling you what to do. It would have been something like;
Go to Menu>>settings>>applications>>manage applications>>Home and press the 'clear defaults' button.
This will bring back the option for you.
solved thanks
Mr Qman101 thanks for your help,.. its solved...

My home button can take my to 2 different home screens. Question.

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.

Changing Default home screen to something other then 1

HI guys,
Is there anyway to change the default home screen on TW for the note? I really like TW, I have my main home screen at position 1 and then I have no2 and then I have the last page. The idea is that I start from my home screen and can go left or right (like Nova etc).
Now this does indeed work with TW but if you have a live wallpaper and scroll from first page to last page (in this case left) then the wallpaper does a funny jump to shift the image instead of a smooth scroll from one page to the next.
Is there anyway to set the home page to another page in TW? Or is there anyway to stop live wallpaper scrolling (if it is not an option on the LW settings).
Thanks!

Just hit the home button on the top right, and once selected, every time you hit the physical home key, you’ll be taken to that screen

Ummm I don't understand, hit the home button on the top right?
If i pinch the screen or select Options>Edit I don't see anyway I can define the home screen linked to the physical home key

[Q] Home button

Is it just me or does the home button not allways take you back to the homescreen?
I have found that for some reason when coming out of an app etc and pressing home it takes me back to the app draw and not directly to my pre defined home screen. It basically does what the back screen should (if it were working half the time!)
I cant see any possible logic for it to do this...the home button should take you back to blink feed or the home screen you have set as your 'home screen'
Anyone else have this or think it strange or give me some logical reason why it does it
thanks
That's how sense 5 works.
It treats the App drawer as another home screen. Press home again, and you'll go back to the home screen.
It was a conscious decision by HTC to do it that way...
and yes, i also find it annoying.

[solved] How to add widget to main lockscreen instead of pages? 4.4.2 kitkat/sense 6

i'm running ViperOne, everything is great. is there any way to add widgets to the main lockscreen instead of having to swipe pages? like in sense 5
EDIT: nevermind, i figured it out. for anyone else wondering how to do this, go to the "lock screen" tab in venom tweaks...under "misc", tick "remove default widget"...now press power button to lock... press power button again to turn screen on...click the plus sign on the lockscreen...and voila
