How do I set up continuous scrolling ? I want to just scroll from one page of apps to the next without coming to the end and scrolling back. I know its probably in settings somewhere. Thanks
I'd like continuous scrolling of the homescreens and the app drawer, but there are no settings for this from what I've seen.
The Galaxy S 3 has them as continuous scrolling, but not the Note 2.
Only work around I can think of is to use a custom home screen/launcher app.

After I upgraded to Steve's 1.6 and lost my settings for the Stage UI I finally took the plunge and got AWD Launcher EX. Haven't regretted it, works great. Love the general ability to customize and unlike Stage UI it doesn't crash.
I cannot, however, find an option to increase the number of screens, is there one? The standard 5 are not quite enough, and while I have increased the number of icons per column to 6, this looks awful in portrait mode. There is another thought for the future, it would be great to be able to set the number of rows and columns for each screen separately, I would prefer to have more items on my home screen and less on the other screens.
Just hit menu button while on the home screen. Then "edit".

That was quick, easy, and painless. A rather unexpected place -- I was desperately trying to find a "number of screens" or similar setting.
push menu ---> edit ---> push "+" and u will be able to add or delete pages
Am i the only one who notices that the stock launcher when going between homescreens is not very smooth? I seem to have to move my finger about 2 inches before it starts "turning the page" as it were, and then its very jittery going between the screens. Has anyone else noticed this?
what can i do to fix it?
You shouldn't have to "move your finger" at all. Just touching the edges of the screen moves between the different home screens.
As for general sluggishness: What apps are you running? Are you using a live wallpaper? How many widgets do you have active? What power mode are you running?
I haven't had any severe jitter or sluggishness, but I found that certain live wall papers made my Prime noticeably slower when switching home screens. Certain widgets also made things sluggish. Since turning them off made things run smooth I can only assume that some downloadable widgets and wallpapers just aren't optimized very well.
Just reverted back to stock and its nice and smooth. will have to monitor what apps i install, widgets i use, etc. to see whats causing it.
I like sliding between screens instead of tapping the edges to flip pages... used to it from using my phone.
hopefully i can track down whats causing the lag i was experiencing.
As to the setup i had:
Asus weather widget
Asus task manager widget
Asus date widget
One page dedicated for games, like 20 shortcuts for games
one page dedicated for other apps, maybe 15-20 shortcuts to apps
always in performance mode, why bother reducing speed when the battery lasts longer than i need anyways?
With stock ICS, I am bad at typing messages with the vertical keyboard, so I always have to turn it first so that the large keyboard appears (and sometimes it takes a while for it to register). I was wondering if there is a setting for it to automatically always select the horizontal way whenever possible...or perhaps there is an app out there or a way for it to register much faster.
Use holo launcher hd plus or any launcher in the launcher settings there is always an option default orientation change it to landscape then u can have a permanent landscape view not sure abt the option being there in touchwiz havent used it in a long time

I use Set Orientation from gPlay, allows you to set (and force any app into, even it doesn't want to support) the orientation you want directly from the notification area.
Maybe that'll help you too.
Hi I have Galaxy s7 edge and i have always been able to add my favourite apps to the Favourites Tray at the bottom of the screen which scrolled enabling me to add several apps ,
But for some reason the tray has stopped scrolling, can anyone tell me how to get it scrolling again.
The App pages scroll but the tray wont.
I`m using Apex Launcher Pro.
ive Found the answer
i found the answer to my question which was in Apex settings--Docking---Dock pages was set to one so changed to 5 which is Max.
Its so satisfying when you can solve it yourself .
Anyway this may be useful to somebody else with the same problem.
I'm on the exynos model. I find that using Nova or any other launcher as default results in lag returning to the home screen. It returns just fine but it does this strange transparent blink before the home screens become responsive to touch again. One can't swipe or click an icon for a very brief but noticeable moment.
This problem is even present when using One UI but it is less pronounced. You can replicate this on Samsung's own launcher by swiping to home and immediately tapping an app icon to open that and swipe home again rapidly and tapping another icon to open that. This must be done very fast, but not in an unrealistic way. I found myself quickly swiping home and hitting the next app I wanna open and it is as though it didn't register my press! This happens all the time. And my older less capable devices do not exhibit this behaviour. They are not Samsungs of course.
This 'effect' is far worse when using other launchers. I've disabled double tap to sleep to see if that fixes it and I've tried disabling gestures and both steps failed. Does anyone know any solutions? Or is experiencing this same problem?
