thanks!
Or you can press the home button and you have the home screen and you can go from there to access whatever
i did that but my mistake was that i pressed "dialer" and it always got me back to the calling screen with the person i was talking to...
well now you know so you can get it done
yep! tnx xda
Running the standard Touchwiz interface when you press the home button it takes you to pane number 1.
Is it possible to change it so it takes you to pane number 4 so you can scroll both ways from the home page as on the HTC Desire?

Don't know on TouchWiz, but Launcher Pro can definitely do this.
Thanks for that, if I get no where with Touchwiz I'll give Launcher Pro a go.
I'm too interested for TouchWiz middle panel being the home.
The home button takes me to home screen #3 out of the five home screens I have. I'm not quite sure how I set it that way. I was using ADW launcher a few days before but now I've changed back to TouchWiz.
If its any help, home screen #3 for me has the most icons and a digital clock app.
EDIT: OK I think I got it. Scroll to the home page u want as default. Tap the options button and press edit. Tap in the middle of the home screen you want (I'm not sure if this does anything) and then press the home button. It should now default to that screen. If it doesn't work, try it a few more times. Careful though, if you press the home button again while on the your custom default screen, it will automatically default to the first screen again.
I've just given this a go and I can't get it to work, it just carries on going to page 1.
Why not just move your favorite page to page one using the edit function?

Because if you have the middle page as the default you can get to any page in a maximum of 3 swipes whereas it could take up to 6 with page 1 as default.
It's only a little thing but one that would speed up use of the phone when moving between tabs.

But you can always press the bubbles - circles at the top to go directly to the screen you want!

Yes you can but as they're at the top of the screen I find I have problems stretching to them when using the phone one handed.

That's strange, it works fine for me.

Nope, I tried it a few times, and it doesn't work. It'll take me to page 4 for example when I press the home button, but press it again, and it'll take me to page 1.
This doesn't work for me either!

Its supposed to do that. Why would you press the home button again, when you're already at your main home screen?

If it's the same for the other guys as me then it goes to the correctly selected page only for the first time.
If you navigate to another page first then press the home button it still goes to page 1.
Ahh, I see now, and yeah it does the same for me. Doesn't seem like there's anyway to truly set the default homescreen.
Oh btw, the method I outlined previously is actually all BS . I just figured out that the home button takes you back to the homescreen you were last on.
When I'm on web and what to retun to home page...i hit home button but it does not take me to home page it takes me to page to left of home page. Does anyone else have this problem..i am rooted but no rom or kernel update all stock. Thanks for any help
If using touch wiz, hit menu-->edit and make sure you have your desired page set ad your home screen.

Thank you...it is set to correct one...I just noticed that what ever screen I'm on when I launch something that's where it goes back to. For example if I'm on the screen to the left of home screen and I hit a bookmark...it takes me to that book mark...but from there if I hit home it takes me back to the screen where the bookmark was not the home screen...but if I hit home button again then it goes to home screen. Is that by design...or is there a need for a fix. Thanks
I have a Nexus 10 2014 with updated android 4.4.2. How to add book marks to home screen? Long press on link on bookmark page doesn't give an option to add to home screen and long press on home screen only allows wall paper choice.
Thanks, John.
I use nova launcher so I'm sure it varies between launchers. For me though its long press home screen, shortcuts, bookmarks, but haven't used a stock launcher in a long time so yeah...

In Chrome, open the bookmarked website, then 3dot menu (top right) and select "Add to home screen"

So I got an app and there is no dedicated settings button in it and I was thinking if there is on the phone a way like long press or double tap a specific key to open the settings menu like the note 3 had a settings button instead of the recent app.
I really need to go in the settings otherwise I can't use the app if someone knows a way how to it!
Thanks
Long press back key to get to the settings menu.

Thanks but unfortunately it doesn't work, it closes the app and opens the settings menu of Nova launcher..
