Upgraded to .153 yesterday (Slovenia). Since, I cannot enter home screen editing mode. I tried to touch and hold on an empty part of the home screen for 30 sec or longer, but nothing happens... it just doesn't enter editing mode. I can remove icons from or add to home screen, though.
Am I missing something? Has this been changed?
Uros
I've read elsewhere that you should pinch the home screen?
Pinch out
Happend to me too
What I did is I've restarted the phone once more after the update has been installed. Works perfectly fine.

I'm currently using Schap's 4.30 on an ATT Tilt. When ever I do something that rotates the screen to landscape then back to portrait view (ie slide open the keyboard) I get a blank line down the right side where the scroll bar was in landscape view. It doesn't seem to be refreshing the screen. I have to go into the Today menu and back out to get rid of the blank line. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Hi:
I wish you much luck finding an answer. I too have the same problem, and haven't had any luck at all.
Someone recommended locking HTC home on screen, but mine just won't stay locked.
Ok... it seems they were correct. I used the latest version of KaiserTweak:

and used the latest XML:

Locked the HTC Home page and it seemed to fix most of it. I have a Live search bar that still won't resize correctly but the rest of the Today screen is fine. Give it a shot

I am so glad it worked for you. I have tried that before also, but for some reason mine keeps unlocking itself. Very odd
just installed soulife.rogers.v2.9.2.extended and I get the homescreen on the RIGHT instead of in the middle as usual... anyway to fix it back? Tried dxtop just now and it gave me the same sort of behaviour!

You talking about the clock and stuff? Just place everything where you want it.
i mean when you hit 'home' it goes to the screen on the RIGHT ... you have to scroll left twice to get to the third screen...

mine does that too now and I'm on cm 3.9.11.2. It goes to whatever screen my seach widget is on.
That happened to me once but then I realized I had five homescreens...
I've heard of people having issues after flashing from one rom to a different if they did not clear the widgets off their home before flashing.

It's not unusual (sorry but your name, c'mon how could i not?)
When i used to use OpenHome there was always an option in the settigns to configure which screen acted as the home screen.

Hi guys,
So, as the thread says, i am having a problem with screen positioning, its landscape mode and i want it to go portrait mode, BECAUSE i have a damaged X1, some microchip is damaged, and the only buttons working is the turn on button and the camera button, but everything which goes for the touch is working perfectly.
SO, when i start ANDROID system, i always get it in landscape mode, and as none of my buttons work, i cant just "slide out and slide in" the telephone to change the view, so is there any way to change the default starting view ? maybe to change some kind of code or line in settings ?

Yes , it will be, but i tried to repair it, i repairmans told, that this device is unrepairable... So i either throw it away or manage to use android ... Can anyone help ?
On some of the iPad knockoffs running android, they put only the home button on the device, and put software buttons for back and menu in the top right of the screen. Maybe you can find some way to get that?

As for the rotate, when I press the menu button on the home screen, it seems to realise that the keypad is in fact closed and rotate the correct way. So if you can get the menu button up there, then press that on the homescreen and it should rotate to the correct orientation.

You can maybe remap the keys like this:
Camera focus = back
Camera = home
Power = menu
But I don't know how to do it.
Sent from my MSM using XDA App
Camera focus is already mapped to back button in "Froyo FRG83 - Android 2.2.1 Beta-Release [06-11-2010] from neopeek", but camera is mapped to turn off.
Also with that configuration, how would you turn off your device or put it into standby?
@tads999 calm down dude. Remember that YOU need help, not us. So don't yell at guys that want to help.

Take out the battery to turn off.
Have a timer that enters standby after some minutes if nobody touch it and listen to all working keys so he can exit standby.
And if I would have his X1 I would be pleased if it could run Android.

Hi. I'm having this problem that my home screen button doesn't work like it should. I use 5 panes and one of them is marked as a "home screen" when I'm not I my home screen pane I should be able to quick access to my home page by just hitting the home button. This is how my friends Z1 works and all my previous Android devices for that matter. But for some strange reason my home button doesn't do anything in to home screen or in any other pane. When I hit the home button the screen flashes quickly like it's trying to do something but nothing happens. Otherwise the home button works just like it should long press activated Google now and in other programmes it brings me back to the home screen. So the problem is somewhere in stock launcher.
Has anyone else noticed this and what might be the reason?

Try a different launcher like the excellent kit kat one from the Nex 5, it's been rock solid for me, but that issue you describe does sound weird, maybe a reflash of the rom you're using might do the trick.
Obviously reboot your phone often too, just incase you hadn't.
Problem solved.
I did install / uninstall of another launcher and after that the xperia launcher works like it should.
Hi,
My P7 does not have lock screen, instead of this, loads an annoying app called P7 (which comes with stock ROM).
Any of you have an idea to enable lock screen? In settings->security->lock screen, option appears in grey and it is unselectable
I have updated to B126 to check if there was an issue with my stock rom, but it is the same.
Thank you

I'll take a guess here that you have the default magazine slideshow lock.
Go into the theme app and click customize them you can change the lockscreen style to one that allows widgets etc.
It took me a little to figure it out also when I got my phone.

No, i dont have any lock screen. When i press power off button to go to lockscreen, by default, the P7 app appears with a lot of spam about huawei. If i disable this app by settings->applications->p7->disable, when i press power button, screen goes black and when i press again, instead of see the typical lock screen, i see the desktop directly

Please take a screenshot of what you mean.
This was already discussed before, use the search button next time.
Your phone is in demo mode, used for demostration in shops.
Try method post #20 first, if it doesn't work do the steps in post #18.

Not at all, but I learnt about demo mode, and I was able to find the app in /cust/hw/demo, so I removed this and then I did a factory reset
