CM12.1 Change home screen Note 3 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Firstly I hope this is in the right section ?
I have a Samsung Note 3 which I have rooted and installed CM12.1 with TWRP
I really like CM12.1 (Lollipop 5.1.1) and I'm happy with it
I would like to know how to change the screen which is displayed, when the phone is asleep and you press the home button to wake up the phone, then you swipe the screen and it displays the phone screen with contacts and previous calls made. I want to change the screen displayed to the default home screen, which has the phone / messages / apps / browser / camera icons at the bottom of the screen
I have tried Google and XDA Forums with no luck
Can anyone help me with this one
TIA :good:

Rooted AT&T Galaxy S2, app icons won't stay on home screen...

Hello all,
I rooted my Galaxy S2 tonight and now whenever I place app icons / shortcuts on my home screen, each time I restart the phone they vanish.
Also, when I hold my finger down on the home screen to rearrange them it won't let me anymore.
Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas?
Thanks!
...
Okay after numerous restarts it seems stable! I added icons and restarted 3 or 4 times and each time they icons were gone. Fifth time everything popped back up as normal. Odd!

HTC Desire 500 change home screen

Good morning all members. Please, i have this phone (1 sim only) and i am not able to modify the widget in home screen (news, clock/meteo, facebook limited)... neither it is possible delete/change these widget. Can anyone tell me if is possible to do this and how proceed? I have rom stock, unrooted.... Thanks
Removal is not possible, but you can change the default home screen ...
Press your current screen that you want to be default for 2 seconds.
At the top you will see all your screens, drag the one you want as default to the text Set as home (appears at top-left when you drag the screen) ... et voila ...
Regards,

[Q] Lockscreen-Problem with GT-i9100

Hi everyone,
first of all I want to say I'm new to xda-developers and also I couldn't find the GT-i9100 in the list for new posts so maybe this isn't the right place for this thread . in this case, sorry, maybe someone has a hint where to post it then
So here's my problem:
My phone won't enter lockscreen. Around three days ago it started to just resume back where I had left once I press the home button (the round one in the middle) without asking me for my PIN.
I had gotten the phone used, so I did a factory reset and afterthat I installed cyanogenmod, thus rooting it, but not manually - I guess the installer did that for me.
First I had a pattern as screenlock but after applying the full-disk-encryption it would only let me choose between PIN and passoword so I set up a PIN.
Then it just started to skip the lockscreen when waking up. I get still asked the lockscreen-PIN when booting, then the SIM-PIN, then the lockscreen-PIN again, then it boots, but when the screen turns black i can always resume by pressing the home button. Also, the power button just makes the screen black, but also without ever locking it...
What I tried so far:
Settings / Lock Screen / Screen Security / Automatically Lock set to 5s
Settings / Lock Screen / Screen Security / Power button instantly locks checked
Settings / Lock Screen - Widget Pager unchecked (i read it somewhere, can't find the exact source anymore)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/lock-screen-home-button-fixed-t1506317 --> also tried this method, also rebooted after applying every of these changes listed above
I hope this is not too much of a stupid problem because I missed something really obvious - although that would be nice
Anyways, i would really appreciate it if anyone knew a solution to this.
After all, full disk encryption isn't exactly useful if your phone is always unlocked...
Thanks in advance everyone!

[Q] Waking on home screens

I have flashed my Galaxy S3 i9300 with Cyanogenmod 11, after I have been using the ROM for a couple days I have noticed whenever I wake the phone it opens on the last app I was using and not one of the home screens. It will only open on the home screen if I kill all apps that I had been using prior to turning off the screen. Is there any setting I have not found that will set the default to the home screens and not any un-killed apps? Thanks

Disabling lock screen completely - possible?

Hi guys, I just got a le max pro (x910) but there is no forum for it. Still, I believe it is running the same OS and EUI as Le max 2 (6.0.1 and EUI 5.6.x)
To my question: I hate lock screens so I disable them. If the fingerprint reader were better I'd seriously consider using it to unlock the phone, but it isn't.
My problem now is the "second" lock screen on this phone. Not sure if this is an andorid thing or an EUI thing, since I haven't used android 6.0+ before.
Essentially, I need my home screen to appears when I click the power button. Is that possible? Currently, the "lock screen" that appears after hitting power is a screen with time and camera icon. I don't need this. Can it be disabled SOMEHOW?
Thanks
Hello!
You can do exactly what you want with Lockscreen Disabler in Xposed. It will disable the lockscreen and when you press the power button, the home screen is shown.
As you may know already, you must have a custom recovery, be rooted and have Xposed installed. Then download the module and enjoy

Is this new in Android 6 or an issue with EUI? On my Sony Z ultra with android 5.1.1 disabling the lock screen is right there in the options.
I'm not sure whatever the problem might be. If you said that you need somehow to disable the lockscreen because you can't, I took it for good and I found a solution for you
I've tried to remove it without Xposed and looks like in Settings you don't have this option. Keep in mind that different OEM's do have various options of customization that might not be common.
Hello everyone, I´m new to this, but I just got an LE S3 last week at a really good price! (take into consideration that I live in Mexico) and found the same problem mentioned here, after lots of researching the web and tinkering with setting, antivirus and lock screen apps on play store and factory resetting phone, I got rid of the ``second lock screen´´ wich is very annoying to me, and not to mention all the ads that popped up every time I unlocked the phone, only for it to come back as soon as I connected my phone to charge it! Very Frustating!
And then I noticed, since I had changed the home and lock screen wallpapers to pictures of my family, I noticed three little white dots on the upper left corner of the screen, almost imperceptible, just like the ones on the web browser to deploy a menu!! I hitted it and a warning came up `` do you want to disable Locker?´´ I hitted Disable and that did it! Now I´m able to just go to my home screen with the Finger Print unlock or Pattern unlock.
It was hard to notice the three little dots since I had not changed my wallpapers, I was using the factory galaxy/nebula look alike wallpapers, which are very cool but have scattered white dots all over and tricked my perception of the Locker Icon.
Hopefully this can help some of you to turn off that annoying extra screen.
Cheers!!
