The defy has 6. And a home page. Im not using two of them how do i remove them? Tmobile was no help. 2nd question is there something that can rotate my screen upside down. ? Thanks for reading
I'm not sure whether you can do it with the stock launcher (though you should be able to) but I know with LauncherPro you can choose the number of homescreens by pressing Menu, then Preferences > Homescreen Settings.
thanks
I gave it a shot it works well. However i just don't like the home icons. I like the ones that came with it. (3) call. The circle thing and contacts is there any way to get them with launcher pro?
Well, you can change the default icons long-pressing on them. Choose the default ones or find some nice icon online and change it
Thanks

Hi, I am using 2.2 and sometimes my device hangs and reboots itself. When i was in landscape befor then the homescreen is in landscape after auto- reboot. So technically landscape is possible, but how to switch its orientation by yourself is a other question.
Greetings
To make it go to landscape once ur in launcherpro hit the 4 square button then behavior then check auto rotate. U should b good.

No ideas on the weather and utube widgets any one. I checked task killer but there are no apps on" auto close" and preview message box still not workin... if i pay im scares it still wont work. Has any one paid for this app?

i did the phone hard reset but i con not se the camera akon on my phone
Where is "on my phone" (home screen? menu? all over the place?), what ROM are you using and when did the icon disappear?
A little more information could be really helpful to make other people help you in return
home menu all over i didnot se camera
i dont know wich ROM is in use .
Well try to explain it - give us details.
Sigh....
In your app listing, there's an app called "Camera"
When you see it, long press on it and you can now drag it to the appropriate place in your homescreen.
Don't panic. You merely deleted the app from your homescreen.

there is no camera in my app
Then long-press on your home screen, select app, and then look for a camera from there.
If it still fails, reboot your phone first, then retry
If that still fails, do a factory reset.
If it still doesn't work, send it back for repairs.
It is necessary to give information about ROM version.
It is easy)
Go to settings-> Phone Info (or something like that)
and, for sure, you will see there all the information needed)
Hello, very often when I see interesting things, I take out my phone, enter the four digit passcodes, then go to different screens to find the camera icon. Then, I finally found and waited long enough for the camera app to be active, interesting things have already been passed. What is the fastest way to launch the Camera app? Thanks.

i use an app called home2shortcut, which allows you to set the home button and the soft key presses and combination of presses to whatever you want. I have the home button set that one click brings me home, 2 clicks opens a voice dialer. home and then menu opens a app called rotation locker which brings up a small window and i can choose portrait or landscape and finally home and then back brings up camera. so no matter where i am i can always bring up camera quick. In addition do what the other guy said above and add the camera app to the lockscreen so you can slide up from it and it will open camera.

hold down the capture button for burst mode
Remove your lock; with swype lockscreen there is an option to where if you hold the lockscreen and then turn your phone to landscape it automatically unlocks the phone and opens the camera

I love you. More than you shall ever know.
my bad, misunderstood, there is also a camera shortcut on the N2 lockscreen that launches straight into the camera. and many other app lockscreens that provide similar functions; widgetlocker, active s lock screen.
On Android 4.2, you can set the camera as a lock screen widget. Wake up the screen with the power or home key, and swipe to the camera. Takes less than 5 seconds from pressing a button to taking a photo. Any photos previously taken are cannot be viewed unless the pin/password is entered, so security is maintained, even with a camera widget.
Any ROM running 4.2 will work, or you can wait a little longer until the official 4.2 build from Samsung comes out. Should be soon.
There is some app called 'quick camera' it's quite fast but it all really depends on your phone rom version and the software and hardware of your phone

Hello all.
My problem right now is concerning the T mobile Note 2 home button.
When my phone is off, and I press the home button to open the phone (I have no lock screen, it opens up directly), the phone opens up the recent menu. Before, my phone would just light up and stay on the home screen and not pop up the recent apps side bar thingy. If I use the power button to open the phone, it's fine.
How do I fix this?
Right now I'm running: Jedi Master 14.
I know before my phone was working just fine on Jedi 11 or 12.
Is it a rom bug ? or hardware problem?
Thanks!
I don't know if this is a bug or hardware, but I have the same issue. When I'm at home I have the lock screen disabled, and when I press the home button it takes me to recent apps, and I'm on stock ROM, stock kernel, just rooted.
It's a bug of sorts - I had to add in a little smali stuff to make that stop.

Is anyone else having trouble taking screenshots? Whenever I do it successfully shows that the screenshot is taken and I can view it in my gallery, but whenever I try to share it, it's just a black image. Does this have to do with the screen settings or something? Also if I take a screenshot and try to open it with an app such as Pixlr, it shows the image but it is like distorted with a grid array of black squares. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

What app are you using to share the image?

I was using the default app with the phone. I also tried using Pixlr and it does the same thing. Like when I try to see the image in my gallery at first it is black on the preview, then when I actually press it to open it it shows the image. When I back out, it is back black again. The screen like flickers as well on certain images, I am assuming because of the adaptive display? I tried taking a few more screenshots last night and it seemed to work, and then a few hours later it went back to showing black images.

No, what I mean is when you click the "share icon", which app do you use to share the images? For example, do you share using Gmail, Pushbullet, Hangouts, etc.? Also have you tried turning off Adaptive Display? That shouldn't be the issue but you never know.

Ah, I was using Kik or directly through text messaging. Like even in my gallery the screenshots show up as black, unless I click on the image than it loads. I have the screen on Basic right now and its still doing it. Its weird as I tried doing a few last night and it began to work normally, and now its doing the black image thing again.

I have the same exact problem with the Verizon version. Screenshots turn very dark and get diagonal lines. If I use Photos to view them, they're just black with diagonal lines. Then when I text these images, the recipients get black images too. I've factory reset the phone, and that fixed it... until I started downloading my apps and Samsung updates. I'm not sure which app creates this issue, but it'd be tough to hunt down the culprit one by one. (I have over 350 apps).
To take a screenshot it's the volume up button and the start key. May it helps you some.

what is the "start key"?
I also faced similar problem like u few months ago, when I took screenshot some times it show in gallery and sometimes a black image with no thumbnail error come, dis was because of low memory, so try to free up some internal and SD memory, use clean master to clear to cache memory, or clean files manually.

I'm sure you're being sarcastic. To most, it's commonly referred to as the 'Home' button. On later Touchwiz devices, you can just swipe your palm horizontally across the screen to capture a screenshot.
I dont know what device you are using, but on the t mobile s6 edge, volume up and the home button do NOT take a screenshot

Works just fine for me.
LOCK button and home button, not volume button.
Press them both at the exact same time and hold them until you see the snapshot.

It was Vol Up + Power button on other devices like Nexus, pure Android. And CM roms.
But Samsung has always been Power Button + Home Button.

right, but this is a Samsung thread on a Samsung phone, so who cares how you do it on a Nexus..
