I have a stock ASUS TF300T, with the 4.2.XXX software update from ASUS is there a way to lock the home screen or an app or something simple to keep from bumping the apps and widgets around?
Yeah, but not with the stock launcher just open google play and search apex launcher or nova launcher and install 1 of them
Press the home button you should see a dialog pop up choose apex/nova and click always
On apex just press the "apex menu button" or just your devices menu button and press " lock desktop"
For nova not really know that but it should be in the menu as well

Hi, i enjoy using both launcher pro home screen and the stock 5 page home screen on froyo.
Heres the issue, when i press the home button it gives me an option between going to launcher pro or to the regular home screen. I don't like to have to press a button again to get to the desired home screen. Would it be possible to set my home button to go to launcher pro if i tap it, and if i hold it it would go to the regular home screen? or can i reprogram one of the buttons, like the camera button to a home screen button?
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Have you tried Home Switcher. It lets you launch or set as default any installed Home Screen apps (including native HTC Sense) and launchers. Pretty cool!
ya i saw that, i just wish it was a physical button rather than an icon. thanks, i think i'll stick with that.
just do not apply default home app. when you touch home buton all home apps are appear!

Hi,
while playing with HOME button on my X10, I changed the behaviour to "use it by default" to use ADW launcher. Now from the home button on my ADW dock, when ever I press the home button, it is re-launching ADW. Is there a way to get back my app folder and re-set the behaviour
thanks in advance

Go into settings. Select applications, select manage applications, select adw, click on clear defaults... Press home.. et voila..

I'm having a problem with my ADW Launcher which is currently driving me mad and I hope someone is able to shed light on the problem I'm having.
I am using Streakdroid 1.9.0 update and after factory reset and flashing the rom (installing ONLY Gingerbread), I install ADW Launcher (free) through Android Market.
After installing ADW Launcher, I notice that when I long press on the icons on the home screen, there is no EDIT, MANAGE, REMOVE etc menu. Just a simple trash icon on the bottom of the homescreen to remove the icon appears when I long press on an icon on the homescreen.
The problem is, I remember I used to have a menu with EDIT, MANAGE, REMOVE etc previously with my ADW Launcher when I long press on the homescreen icons. How do I bring that back?
Another difference is that there is no more Lock/Unlock Screen option when I hit the menu button on homescreen anymore.
Anyone can help or shed light on this anomaly, PLEASE HELP. It's driving me crazy just wondering how I can get back the menu!
Thanks!
Have you tried using the paid version? I can email it to you

Hi guys!
I've got a question about making the homescreen your own.
I'm talking about the call and browser button next to the menu button.
Is there a way to change these two into other buttons?
Cause I use the opera mini browser instead of the usual browser.
Thnx!

You should get a pop-up message when pressing the browser button on the Gingerbread homescreen asking which browser to use (if you have more than one installed).

Dude, that wasnt the question
OT: I don't think it's possible, I havent found a way
You can change your homescreen icons, but you need a home screen replacement app.
Something like Go Launcher or ADW Launcher. Both are amazing home screen replacements that let you modify and change your home screen to your liking.
Either of those apps will allow you to change the bottom buttons.
Actually, if i'm not mistaken, even with the stock home screen, you should be able to long press the icons in the bottom bar and drag them off the menu bar. You can replace them with whatever app you want by doing the same - long press and drag into the space for the menu.
I really like the nova launcher but i seeming to find one thing that drives me crazy. When i press the home key twice, it opens up all the homescreens to edit. Is there a way to disable or stop it from doing this?
