Back to default home screen??? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I figure its somewhere in settings but cant figure it out.
On any home screen, every time my screen rotates it also reverts back to my default home screen. Annoying! How do I stop it changing the home screen? Thanks!

Hi, i think this is what u r talking about.
To change the default home screen:
Pinch your fingers together on the home screen. You should get this screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then u just tick the little box of the screen u want to set as default, as shown in this screen:
Hope this helps.
Cheers

Hi,
Firstly you need to be on a normal home screen (not a page buddy screen).
Then u just hold the internet icon for a few seconds, and drag it somewhere else.
Then just go to the app draw and hold on the chrome icon and drop it in the dock.
That's for the stock launcher.

Sorry no, Im not trying to figure out how to change default home screen. That I know.
I want to stop the device from changing to default home screen every time the screen orientation changes due to the angle of the device.

I don't get that on my n2, so it might be a bug on your device. Try flashing a stock rom and see if it helps.

For starters. Smaller buttons. Maybe black them out with blue outline. (Holo)
Perhaps' Say it' button on top. Maybe highlight background white or silver if anything is in the box, black if not. Just to show people what to press after they type. (letters or words)
Maybe the MyApps and Rate in the menu option. (pressing menu) The ability to turnoff shake to clear. You can add a banner somewhere that ask for people to support you by checkibg out your apps. How about 'About' section. What your using to make this happen (tts,google, who you are, email contact etc. etc..)

Yep, only for few apps. Mostly designed by Samsung and included in ROM. Should be also Facebook and Twitter. Not a big choice.

The multi task bar is maybe good for tablets but not for use with smaller screens.
With screenshot
There are 2 ways.. 1. using back button for few seconds and from the notification center.

You should be able to enable Google Now by swiping up the Google icon in the lockscreen or press the menu button for about 2 seconds. Read this http://www.androidauthority.com/how-to-setup-configure-and-use-google-now-98749/, that should clarify it.
Nope i cant....because Google now its not enabled,,i need way how to enable GN.

Are you running a stock or custom rom, if so wich one? Google Now is active from software version LJ1 afaik, if you have an older rom you must upgrade.
when you swip up, and the Google search opens, open settings for that Window and there you'll find the enable Google now.

3 things you might try:
1. Delete the Google Account in settings, accounts and after that add your account again and try opening google now
2. Reflash the rom you`re on with Odin
3. Reset to factory settings, save important files to the external sdcard first.
Good luck mate, can`t think of anything else after that.
Hold Menu- this should open Google Now.
Hit Menu again, then Settings and you should see a page like this,

[APP][4.1+]OpenMic+ for Google Now-"OK, Google"

Google Now, Everwhere.
With Open Mic+ for Google Now, access all the commands from anywhere on your phone. Simply say "Okay Google" or wave your hand in front of the screen. Screen on, screen off Google Now will be ready to listen.
This app is made to replicate the Googgle Now "OK, Google" feature on the Moto X. In the app version you can also wave your hand in front of the screen (on/off) to activate Google now.

There is an area in settings that you can press whether you want the app listening all the time or just when the screen is on. The feature for listening all the time is still in beta. I haven't had much time to test out whether it effects battery life or not though.
