General :: Swiping From One Desktop (homescreen) To Another?
Feb 1, 2013
I am looking for one setting or utility in Android systems generally, I will try to explain problem: I have one 7" tablet (Emgeton Consul 3 with 4.0.4 ICS) and Phone (Samsung Galaxy Young) with Jellyblast 3.0.4 rom?/mod? (claims about itself it is android 4.1.1).
I have three desktops (homescreens?) on phone. Moving finger left get me to desktop number 2 (right of 1), if i do it again, i am at the third desktop and from the third by swiping finger i will get to first. This is beaviour i dont want to. I want to go 1 >> 2 >> 3 >> and stop. And ofcourse back 3>> 2 >> 1 and stop. This is how is my tablet working, and I want to "tell" phone to behave the same. Have you experiences with some setting / utility / system modification that can do it ?

I have used many mods that swips internal memory by the external memory and vise versa..
So everything worked perfectly but installing apps no longer work.. When I install an app it says app not installed..
BUT installing apps through Play Store works perfectly as it should..
My device: Galaxy Note 2 running CyanogenMod 10.1 nightlies ..

The application is kind of a book. The first screen is an opening screen (ImageView), and clicking on it will lead to the table of contents.
The table of contents, as any of the other chapters is a separate activity. It has a LinearLayout that contains a Header (TextView) and a chapters list (ListView).
The chapters themselves also built the same, so each item in the list is a different paragraph.
Clicking an item on the chapters list (in the table of contents) will switch to the activity with the relevant chapter.
Swiping from left to right on a certain chapter (including the table of contents) will switch to the next chapter.
Swipe left will lead to the previous one. Note that there is no mistake here: Text direction is RTL.
At first, the swiping only worked when the swiping was performed on an empty areas of the screen, and not on the contents of the ListView. So in order for the swipe to work on the items as well, I have performed the following (after consulting some guides in the web):
1. I have added a GestureDetector member to the activity.
2. I have initialized the above member with a private class overriding GestureDetector.SimpleOnGestureListener and implementing onFling. It is a straight forward implementation: Just calculating the direction of the swipe and determining the next chapter.
3. Clicking an Item: I have added the current activity to the ListView by setOnItemClickListener. This activity implements onItemClick by switching to the correct chapter.
4. Swiping: I have added to the ListView, by setOnTouchListener, an interface which implements onTouch by calling the GestureDetector member.
The problem is that this doesn't work as expected:
a. Scrolling the list doesn't work well: I have assumed that like any other application, swiping the finger will start a fast scroll that will slow down until stopped. Instead the scrolling is fixed according to the finger movement: As long as the finger moves, the list is scrolled and the scroll is stopped the moment the finger is raised from the screen.
b. Looks like overriding both setOnItemClickListener and setOnTouchListener causes trouble. If I swipe right on one of the chapters in the list in the table of contents (say chapter 7), I will get to the first chapter as expected, but clicking the back button, will return me to the table of contents activity and the same chapter 7 item will be highlighted.

I downloaded and installed all of the galaxy live wallpapers through the xda developers forums and they look amazing but they all cause a huge amount of lag especially when swiping through screens. Any thoughts as to why this might be happening and if so any solutions?

Has anyone been able to disable the screen in which you have to swipe down to unlock the phone? I'd like to use just the unlock pattern option like on the Moto Droid, but I haven't been able to get rid of the swiping screen altogether.

I am just wondering if there is like a app where the widgets just move rather than both the widgets and background move when you are swiping from screen to screen

Is there an app which needs a code to unlock the phone instead of the swiping finger method?

I got my Droid X yesterday and for the most part I'm impressed. (I didn't realize how much I liked HTC's Sense UI until replaced my Incredible with this phone.)
So far my only frustration is the touch screen. When I'm swiping between home screens, or even in applications, it often doesn't register anything or it'll open the first icon I touch even though I'm swiping. Sometimes I have to press an icon a couple times before it'll open up as well. This is getting REALLY frustrating because I can't just do things quickly but I have to watch to see if what I selected actual opens or swipes, etc.
I've only installed a few applications, including LauncherPro. Is anybody else having any issues like this?

Hopefully someone has had this problem. My phone has just recently started to have this problem. When I am at the home screen, my phone will begin to swipe to the left by itself even when my finger is nowhere near the screen. When tilting the phone or aggravating the accelerometer, it begins to do it more. Also, some of the icons are selected green by itself (but not actually selecting the icon if that makes sense).
Argh, I really don't want to hard reset (not even sure if that'll fix it).

I use Chrome browser on my Android and I used to be able to go into my bookmarks and add a bookmark to my home screen well now I don't see that option anymore. I'm using the s3 and haven't tried it since my phone updated to 4.3 so I'm wondering did they remove it with that update or with a Chrome update or just change how it's done?

I can't add a shortcut to a Phone app (it's the app where you enter dial numbers, call someone). Need it on my home screen, but there wasn't it when flashed the rom, in drawer too. And no options which can add it. I'm using CM 10.

1. Is it possible to replace homescreen with app launcher? I mean when you press home button, homescreen shows up, is it possible to force phone to open app drawer instead of homescreen when you press home button?
2. Or/and maybe there is a launcher which shows all your apps not alphabetically but by date and also with ability to arrange the apps however you want?

So I have a folder on my home screen, in which I've saved a bunch of navigation shortcuts to use with Google Navigation. I want to know if there is any way to backup this folder to my SD card so that I may restore it after switching over to a new ROM.

This question might be specific to HTC phones, but I'm not sure. I have various bookmarks for sites with decent webapps that I'd like to have as icons on my homescreen. What I would like is for their icons to be specific to the site (like iOS or BlackBerry), but instead what happens is I get the ugly red HTC Sense bookmark icon for each of them. Any way to get the site-specific icons to appear (or if it's even possible)?

I bought a Samsung Galaxy S2 a couple of days ago and since then i've tried to get my e-mail settings sorted out. I have been searching the internet for a long time without finding a solution.
My problem is that i have 4 e-mail accounts and 3 of them i need constantly. My phone can show my e-mails on a nice widget on the homescreen using the default "e-mail" labeled widget3 . However i cant choose which e-mail account i want it to show. Now all i have is 4 times the same nice widget showing me the same e-mail account's 3 newest posts.
I have tried several other e-mail clients but all of them have the same problem. I really like the default client which is bundled on the phone, but it won't do me any good if i cant see all my accounts.

As stated in the title I would like to know where exactly the default homescreen wallpaper image is stored on the ICS file system?
I am using version 4.0.3
Say for example I have a friend with a cool background wallpaper and that I want a copy of it. Where exactly would I look in the android file system on his phone to get a copy of it?
Note: I do not want to download an app which manages my wallpaper images I want to find out how it works on ICS so that I can manage it myself.
I googled a bit and found the tutorial below at the end of this email. It would appear that (on Gingerbread) wallpaper is managed by framework-res.apk
When I looked however at the different png files in "framework-res/res/drawable-hdpi" on my ICS installation I nothing what so ever that looks like my current home screen.
The wallpaper is stored under the system/media
On ICS I have 4 folders at that level
alarms
notifications
ringtones
ui
On ICS there are no images in any of these folders. The above was most likely true for Gingerbread but not ICS.
Is wallpaper managed by the launcher or by ICS itself?

I have about 150 apps installed, but only 30 of them are currently on the homescreen.
Is there a way to add the remaining 120 at once to the homescreens?
If I would have to do it manually (Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1) it would take at least an hour to do (adding one shortcut is extremely slow, as my tab needs about 10 seconds to display the list of apps alone when creating a shortcut).I don't have to do it manually for each app.

do you know what app/widget that is on the left? Maybe, do you know similar apps that can show all kinds of notifications on homescreen (not lockscreen)?
The screenshot was on Simple Calendar Widget but it has to be another app.

I just rooted my android (LG p500) and was removing bloatware using titanium backup. I accidentally deleted something which caused the homescreen to go black with no widgets showing, I cant even see the menu. I can still see and work with the top bar. When the phone is locked I can see the wallpaper I had but as soon as I unlock it goes black again.

Basically I trying to setup a homescreen in which part of it can scroll vertically, but another part doesn't move. I currently have Lightning Launcher, which is great by the way, but I can only set it up so that the entire screen scrolls. I was thinking it would be nice for have a spot on the left side of the screen for favorite apps and maybe some widgets (I guess you could call it a "dock"), and on the right side of the screen have a scrolling list of the rest of my applications. Probably with 1/3 of the screen being the left portion and 2/3 being the right portion. Can this be done with Lightning Launcher? or any other launcher? and how?
