Hi
Whenever I unlock the phone and the home screen comes up, it always seems to redraw the screen. I only have 2 widgets on the home screen. The stock weather widget and the Google search widget, along with the icons for my apps.
Any suggestions?

Hello,
new to Android, so please bear with me. I just discovered yet another Motoblur "Feature" which I dont understand, and would like to get rid of.
When I switch between Homescreen pages, a little bar with point symbols and a red House symbol in the middle appears at the bottom of the screen, obscuring the phone and contacts buttons. The bar is partly transparent and disappears after a short moment.
Can anybody explain what this is, and how to get rid of this?
thanks,
Christian
Home Screen Changer
This is the homescreen quick-changer / display-- basically it shows you what homescreen you are on, and if you press one of the dots it changes to that number homescreen.
Also I do not know how to remove it, but if you go to the marketplace and download either: launcherpro, ADW Launcher, HE Launcher, Zeam, etc etc then you will no longer have to use the crappy motoblur one
Since i had ADW launcher installed i had that "feature" no longer, i can customize my home screen in the way i want. So go for ADW launcher, or also, go for launcherPro, which is another free and good one.

Pro gives you weather animations..... does it animate on the home screen HTC sense esk or is it only when you click the weather icon?

Same as desire series.
Can enable it and disable it through the options.
It also has weather sounds now too.
So when it rains it animates on home screen? Without clicking the weather?
Do you get the wipers in the rain?
The PRO version is a paid app. No WAREZ allowed in XDA
if you want the PRO version buy it from Market, it's only $1.99
it's way worth the money
Yeah, it does use the windscreen wipers from time to time. But I find it quite annoying that the weather animation after waking up out of standby is somewhat like a separate layer programme running on top of the home screen. If you want to access any icons on your screen, you have to click on the screen, which makes the weather animation stop. After that you can click a second time to finally start the programme you wanted to start.
But nevertheless the animation runs quite smooth and well animated.

if you go into settings, there is an option to not keep the animation running after waking up from iddle
so it runs the animation only once, and it goes away, instead of staying on top of the home screen
OK, I'm sure this is an easy one, but I can't figure out how to duplicate this behavior on my own.
On stock 4.2.1 ->
Occasionally, all of my lock screen widgets appear in one screen in a rotating rectangle.
How do I replicate this behavior on demand?

Swipe down from your lock screen widget to make your pattern or PIN disappear. Then swipe side to side to see different widgets or long press to edit/add/remove widgets.
My kindle device is rooted and set up with go launchers HD for tablets. Theres seems to be lots of glitches. My screen orientation is stuck on horizontal even thou i repeatedly have done the gesture to unlock screen orientation. It too glitches between horizontal and vertical eveytime i hit the home key, ultimately to fix itself on horizontal despite the position the device is really being held. Also, i cant get any other widgets other than go launcher widgets to work. I have installed beautiful widgets and it doesn't have an option to place widget on home screen. I have too installed htc gingerbread in hopes it would lay the platform for regualr HTC/google widgets to no avail. Was posting to see if anyone else was having these kinds of problems and if there were any solutions.. Thanks
Ive installed Nova launcher, but I find it super annoying, that it always shows the last app after phone was locked. How can you change it to always show home screen after an unlock?
