I have 3 screens, and I have infinite scrolling turned on. On the bottom of the screen I have soft buttons to switch to each screen.
If I'm on screen 1 and hit the zooper button to go to screen 3, it goes to the middle one, then the third, but since infinite scrolling is on it could have simply gone 'backwards' and been a much faster transition like going from page 2 to either page 1 or 3, since it only 'travels' across to the page it wants.
Could the way this works be improved to take into account infinite scrolling and find the homescreen/page faster?
Thanks.

This is something you should probably suggest to the developer of Nova Launcher since this is something only they can change

I see, thanks, I thought that zooper might be able to do it itself. I'll shoot them an email.
Thanks again.

Hi,
I'm not sure if this is something really silly and simple that I'm somehow missing, but I'm unable to change the default home screen on the HTC One X. Is this not supported on the stock ROM without installing a 3rd party launcher? I'd really like to be able to change the default homescreen. When I say default, I mean the one the stock launcher takes you to upon pressing home.
I've tried looking all over but haven't found much. I'm guessing the feature exists because when I zoom out of my homescreen, one of the homescreens has a home icon on it, but I don't know how to change it to some other screen.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
have you tried to get all the homescreens on the screen together and just press the one you want and move it around? what i mean you get all 7 of the homescreens together. if you press on one you can move it in the order you want..so you have the homescreen the main one in the middle the one with the home icon well you can move it to the top and that will be like page 1 starting from left to right.. hope that helps

I understand what you are saying but I think you are misunderstanding his question
if I have 7 screens and say for instance I want to make screen 6 the home screen how does one do that (so that when you press the home button it will go to screen 6 and not to the middle screen [current home icon])
I have searched for this feature as well to no avail
Move all the features that are on screen 6 to screen 1. Duh. You're thinking in reverse. Think forward. Best o luck to ya.

I think you got it backwards that is alot of PT simple put how do you make another screen the home screen
it was simple with my Moto Milestone you just selected "make this the home screen"
I am thinking this is a limitation in Sense 4.0
not a biggy, but fundamentals are missing
Solution?
I might have a solution. I accidentally changed my home screen so everytime I pushed the Home button on the bottom it went to the wrong screen. The way I fixed mine was doing a restart from the screen I wanted to be the home screen. Once the reboot was complete, my home screen was set correctly.
/update Nope, somehow it randomly got changed again, tried what I thought fixed it above, doesn't work. This is stupid, obviously there is a way to change it, shouldnt be this difficult. I have exactly 9 days to return this phone, I am considering it with all the issues I've had.
I just saw on the SGS3 review that the home screen can be changed easily….
Each screen as an icon on it when in fan view. One is designated as home, to change, just click the icon on the screen you want to be home. Whatever tiles/widgets/apps are on that screen, its still home.
With the One X, you can have any of the 7 screens as home but the tiles/widgets/apps move with the home page (by dragging the home screen around and changing its order)
The only way to do it would change home screen and then manually change all the icons/widgets after

I've switched from a Note 4 to an S6 Edge and I love my new phone, but there are two things I miss and I'm wondering if there is a hidden setting somewhere that I'm missing: large album art on lock screen and infinite scrolling of home screens. Looking to keep touch wiz and don't want to root.
I'm also interested on this topic. I haven't been able to find the option to enable infinite scroll on my S6. I was able to deactivate the Magazine page by unchecking the box at the top but it won't scroll to the left after it reaches the home screen.

Thinking this is more Samsung conforming to Googles guidelines and using lollipop as they intended. Another annoyance is the lack of alphabetical order in the app draw again a lollipop thing.
I think a launcher maybe the only option.

Best thing to do if this is important to you is download a launcher. Nova is a really good one and I can confirm that it does offer infinite scrolling, as well as many, many other options. 5 pages of docks, scrolling left/right or up/down, etc.

Are you able to set a home screen in the OP launcher? For example I like for my 2nd of my 3 screens to be my home screen.
Every other launcher I've used allow this but I can't figure it out with the OP launcher.
Is it possible?
1. Hard press on the screen
2. You'll see all your screens.
3. Press on the screen you want.
4. Select and drag to the position of the home screen.
FINISHED

I think he wants his homescreen to be the middle of his 3 screens so that there is another screen to the left and right of his homescreen. I've looked around it it doesn't appear to allow you to do this. Perhaps it's because it needs space for the Shelf.

Folks,
My Google Now launcher on the Note5 had a 5x5 grid -- but I can't seem to find the setting for that on the Note7 (or, more likely, I forgot what I did). Any suggestions?
thanks!
--randy
On My Note 5 when usin the Touch Wiz, just hold the main screen and the options pop up (Wallpapers, Widgets,Themes and Screen Grid)
The Note7 comes with Google Now as an option instead of TouchWiz. It turns out that I had it on power save mode, which reduced the screen resolution and caused that behavior. Working right now at 5x5

I found that when I went to the home screen the very first time, but it might have been because it restored? Install it off the Google store, maybe?
HI. I'm coming from Android 5 to 7. Is there anyway to make the home screen to return to the first page after reaching the last one?
I had this before. My home screen had 3 pages and after the 3rd, if I kept scrolling I return to the first one.
Thanks!
Nova Launcher enables this.

Thanks but I was trying to find if it can be done with a setting. Don't want to install anything else. Perhaps I lost this feature.
