Galaxy S6 :: How To Change Text Below The Icons On Home Screen
Apr 28, 2015
I'm new to Android phones made the switch from iphone. I just finished rooting my S6, get a nice black wallpaper on my phone but i cant figure out how to change the text below the icons on my home screen, right now the font is black so it cannot be seen.
How can I change the icons on my home screen? Ive got 3 mail icons which I dont need. Is there a way to place links to apps on the home screen? Also, is there a way to autohide the icons so as to fully display the wallpaper?
I have a curve 8530. How do I change the icons on the home screen? Also, the messages icons, there are 2, one plain envelope and one envelope with a earth on it. Do the same messages from the earth one (which I assume means email) go into the plain envelope one which I think means ALL messages including BB PIN Messages? And then to other texts show up in the plain one?
I have recently updated my samsung galaxy s6 to android 5.1.1, since updating, my launcher, apex pro isn't showing the icons within a folder on my home screen any more, its basically a folder that contained all my game apps.I assume the issue was apex in someway maybe not being fully compataible with 5.1.1 but im not sure? Th odd thing is, when i open tap the game folder, even though its all blank with no icons, they do seem to be there, but just invisible, if i tap where i know apps used to be in the folder, they do actually stop open, which is odd.
I have tried deleting the folder then doing a restore in apex but the same thing happens.Also since updating to 5.1.1 some screens have also been a little laggy and my home screen was just black at one point and just showing the notification section / time but everything else was black and wouldn't go off, i had to restart phone to get it back to normal.
after installing the Android 5.1.1 update on my Galaxy S6 edge almost all home screen icons have disappeared, even the bottom ones like phone, contacts and messages.The apps icons in the app drawer have also completely disappeared. The apps are still there and working, but I can only access them when I get a new notification.I have tried rebooting several times, and clearing the Touchwiz launcher data, but nothing changes.
Have the new iphone 4s and can't work out how to stop my texts from being displayed on the home screen for all and sundry to see! I remember being able to change this quite easily on the old one but I have yet to find the necessary "button".
I know it is possible to change the default screen which is displayed when you press the Home Button on the Samsung Galaxy S5, because I did it accidently. But it happened while I was trying to get the ringing phone out of my pocket. I do not know how to change it back. Suggestions for other types of phones have not worked
seems a bit lame compared to other questions! But, how do I set it so that when I recieve a text, it beeps every two minutes or so instead of just once? I can't find it anywhere! Also, when a text does come, the actual message quickly scrolls across the black bar at the top of the home screen..can I remove this? I would normally have the screen locked anyway but if i'd just used it and left it on the table for instance.
I see a lot of ppl with little tiny icons on their home screen under the name of the app. How do I get this?Like in this photo. Or how it says something at the top bar like "orange"
I was using my phone earlier, everything was fine. I looked at it later, all my folders and icons are gone from my home page. The only thing on the page are the four things on the bottom. Phone, Chrome, Contacts and apps. I can get to everything from the app drawer, should be a simple matter to repopulate my home page. I've restarted my phone several times. I've both just restarted, and shut down, then restarted. All of my history seems to still be in the apps, I.e my email accts are signed in, my s-health history is there. The only thing that's changed are the icons have vanished from my home page. Phone is bone stock
I have updated my OS to 7.1.0 Bundle 2039 and have noticed a few changes. Today my homescreen has a row of icons appeared at the bottom. In the previous version you could turn off the icons and only have a small up arrow shown that you could select to show the icons.
remove icons on your homescreen. From my reasearch it seems as if you can only hide icons and not delete them. I have the Blackberry Curve 8520, for some reason one of my BBM contacts is now an icon on my homescreen I have no idea how this has happend and how I can remove it
The shortcut bar on my home screen showing my icons is gone replaced by just an arrow pointing up that I have to click on to see any icons. How do I get my icons to reappear on my home screen?
On the blackberry tour I downloaded google maps. It came as an icon labeled g and inside that icon are 3 other google icons including google maps. I want to move it to the home screen separately and do not seem to do so without moving the whole g icon to my home screen. When I go to menu on home screen, it does not give me this option.How do I separate an icon from the group g and move it as a stand alone on the home screen.
I have an old school first gen IPhone. It's jailbroken. I was wondering if there is any way to have absolutely no icons except for the ones on the dock on the home screen?
I understand tap and hold to make the icons jiggle, then drag. Only problem is, I can move them to the right but not to the left--to the home screen. For example, I moved one of the default home screen icons to the second screen, leaving a hole. Now I'm trying to move an icon from the second screen into the hole I created. I can drag to the right and create a new screen, but it will not break through to the left onto the home screen.
How can you move the position of your icons on the Iphone desktop. Occasionally they seem to shift by themselves, or group themselves within an icon, and I can't figure out how to organize manually.
