There's an app in the Market that's called Home Switcher. Install that and you'll be able to pick your home launcher of choice.

settings/ applications/ manage applications/ [select the home replacement app] and then select "clear defaults"...
next time you press home you'll get the options presented to you again..

Or another quick way is to go to timescape then go to settings then check set as home button. Then uncheck it
Then press the home button and you will see the Home Options Window.

Thanks Guys

you have to go into app management go to home and clear defaults then hit home and it should give you the option of home or htc sence choose htc sence
Go to menu>settings>applications>manage applications, Look for an app called "Home", selected and scroll down, you should see a button that says clear defaults, press it. Then just press your home key and it will pop open a box for you to select home or htc sense, select the check box and then select HTC sense.

Perfect thanks. The clear defaults was greyed out. But I pushed the clear data button and then hit the home button and it asked me to use Sense.
Thanks a bunch.

How to change home screen

Sorry for this stupid question,
but how do i change the home screen? I managed to choose the crappy standard screen as standard when i want to use Crazy Home, and now i don't know how to change it back.
Please help?
settings/ applications/ manage applications/ select "home" app, then clear defaults.. next time you press the home key you will get the chance to choose which one you want to use.

Change Default Home Screen

How do you change the default home screen? Like when I press the home button it will use that instead? Cause im trying out the ADW Launcher but its not in the applications lists so I cant open it.
When using a program try holding the home button, this should pop up with a menu that says "complete action with" and show Home or ADW. Or something like that, I know Ive seen that menu before.
Yea, it used to show the menu. But then I set the Home as default action so if I press home it will bring me to the home i dont want and if I hold it, it shows a box with recently opened apps

Holding the home button is the action for bringing the recent app list. *FAIL*

Go into application settings and clear the defaults for Home.
Settings-> Applications-> Manage Applications
Scroll down do the Home application (cant remember if its called home or what, deleted my Launcher.apk ages ago after getting root). Once you have cleared the defaults. A press on the home button will show you options to select your home screen, this will include ADW, Home and TimeScape, select ADW and check "Set as default".

Strange...it works for me...which rom are you using...and as for the apps not deleting from the drawer....you can't do anything....you'll have to uninstall apps from application menu
You can delete apps by:
Long Press On App
Drag To Trash Can
Hold Over Trash Can Until Prompted to Uninstall
The contcet problem is in every rom...Me too cant go back frm the contact by pressing back button...

Button Settings are not available in General Settings

Maybe there is no this func, but I saw on the demo in youtube that there should be a possibility to customize hardware buttons behavior. Also should be possible to enable swipe on Home button.
If you type in search box in General Settings keyword "camera" it will show you that there should be some settings in Buttons, to set behavior. But if you press on context link - it shows button menu but very limited.
Do you have one?
Thanks

If I'm not wrong swipe on Home is available on ZUI home, not Cyanogen OS.
On Buttons menu you can set home long press action, home doube tap action (doesn't work on latest update).
I personally use "All In One Gestures" app to configure buttons

Thanks a lot. I will try!
The reason is I would like to set a camera on double tap action and cannot find how to do it by default.

In Settings -> About Phone turn on Advanced mode. Then you can configure buttons. I have it set up just as you'd like it, double tap for camera, works perfectly for me with latest update.
