[Q] sense screen removal?

hey there i have a 2.3.3 dinc2 so i cant root it yet but i really do like the sense widgets so dont wanna change to adw or launcherpro, but wondering if there is anyway to make it 5 homescreens instead of 7? i know on touchwiz you can but ive looked through all the settings and cant find it on my di2. anyone know if it can be done and how?

No you can't

Why would you want to get rid of home screen? If they aren't getting used then you most likely won't see them and won't bother you. But from what I see after having played with my phone there is no option for that.

Wallpaper position...less screens more of the wallper is visible. I hate that you can't pick which screen is the home screen either.

Err. I guess I had problems trying to get the picture not to get blown up when setting wallpaper.

You can. Go into the Sense previews and hold in one screen and you can move it. Is this what you're talking about?

No not really, that just let's you move the screens around but the home screen is always the center one. what I meant was making any screen the home screen regardless of that screens position

I don't quite understand what you want it to do..You can make any of the screens the home screen by moving it to the center.

He wants to make the left-most screen (for example) the home screen, not just move the contents of the left-most screen onto the center screen.
And yeah, the lack of home screen configureability is probably the biggest reason I don't use Sense. I only use 3 to 4 screens, and don't need or want any more.

lockscreen

i was wondering if there was any way where you dont have to choose a separate lockscreen wallpaper than homescreen one.
im currently on stock and would like to stay on it.. not a huge fan of go locker... i just wondered if there was any other way to get the same wallpaper for both without having to set it twice... slight OCD issue lol ( i swear there was a way around it on the galaxy s 2)

Use Quickpic

Just set the wallpaper twice.
If it still keeps you up at night, a shrink will be more useful than a dev to fix the problem.

Oh forgot about that on stock
I thought there was an option in the lockscreen wallpaper to set it as homescreen one?

go to settings, then display, then wallpaper. select lockscreen and choose none. then your lockscreen paper will be the same as your desktop paper. when you change your desktop paper, lockscreen will match. hope this helps

No option to set same as homescreen one, maybe its because im on the i version :-/ mehh shall probably end up rooting it soon, never takes me too long before i do.. Cm7 possibly

there is NO setting to set the same pic for lockscreen and homescreen. all you need to do is select none for your lockscreen in the settings location I told you to go to. simple as that....

No thats what im saying i dont have the option to do.. It literally says wallpaper gallery or gallery.. Trust me if it said none then i would have clicked it straight away.. I just didnt know if there was another way around it but it sounds like not

[Q] stock browser question

when browsing a webpage in the middle to bottom right hand corner, when i go to scroll the webpage down it zooms in on the page, is this a feature? I have a ZAGG HD screen protector on the screen. Does anyone elses Note 2 do the same thing?

Yep, I guess it's a "feature", and I've had it happen in other apps as well. I hate it - I'm always hitting it by mistake. I wish someone would figure out how to make a mod to disable it!

[Q] How do I edit tray icons?

I have a new N7105 - and i'm coming from a Galaxy Nexus. With the Nexus you can edit the icons in the bottom tray by long pressing then just dragging them around. However, on the Note 2 i can't do this? If i press menu then press edit, it only lets me edit the screens.
Is there any way to change these icons? I find it hard to believe they've locked these down.
The icons i'm referring to are: Phone, Contacts, Messaging, Internet, Apps
Also, just thought i'd add - i've searched everywhere for how to do this but none of the suggestions work.
I've tried pressing apps and setting the view to customisable grid then going edit from the apps drawer - this doesn't work either.

Also, is there a way to do this without installing a different launcher?

Hi I have the 7105. If I hold an icon in the tray draw I can move it to the home screen or drag it all the way to the trash can. I can then drag any icon from the home screen to the app tray.

Same here on my n7100.. Long press on them and I can move them around and into the screen.

I noticed in Australia the Optus rom does not let you move the shortcuts at all. Also if you want to move icons around on the home screen you first need to press menu edit.. so stupid. Installed an unbranded rom and now I don't have these limitations

This is it, i've just flashed 4.1.2 and now i can move everything around perfectly. How stupid.

You can even create folders there

alternative lockscreen app that isn't bugged?

Hi everyone I've tried all alternative lockscreen apps on the market but they all share the same annoying bug : if I unlock sliding on a shortcut e. g. whatsapp. once I press back to quit the app and (logically) going to my home screen, it goes back to the app that locks my phone and locks it again. this is not really functional. all I was looking for was a way to have different wallpapers for both home screen and lockscreen. tired of having the same one for both. suggestions?

It's not a bug, it's programmed that way.

App called widgetlocker can do what you want.
