Anyone know of a profile or hack to get more home screens? Every apps I've tried ass something, mainly a new app tray or buttons at the bottom of the screen. I just want more home screens, nothing more.
Your going to have to use a home replacement such as launcher pro or adw and yes they will usually change the launcher
You may be able to keep it at the vanilla launcher via options.

What about Launcher+ on the Android Market?

OK so I just updated to the new cm release canadate and I love it!
Only problem is that when you delete things from the home screens you now bring it to the top of the screen instead of the bottom to delete it. Well I was re-doing my home screen and accidentally dropped my messaging app in the place were the adw launcher should go (dock at bottom of screen). So now I can't get into my apparently drawer
How do I put adw back onto my dock?
Also is there a way to lock them in place?
Thanks in advance

Long press on the home page> custom shortcuts> launcher settings> open/close app drawer.
Drag the new icon to the dock bar...

Thanks for the tip man.
I knew it was going to be something simple
haha I did the same and re-flashed the rom...
later I figured out the solution, same as it in second post
I wasn't paying attention earlier today and was trying to remove an Icon from my home screen. I am running the new version of Cyanogen ROM.
Not used to the "Delete" area being on top of the screen. So, when I went to delete the icon off of the screen, I in fact moved it into the section of ADW where the "App Drawer" is located.
So now I don't have access to my app drawer. I have "Phone / Dumb Icon / Browser" instead of "Phone / App Drawer / Browser"
How in the heck do I get the app drawer back in the middle???
I tried to do a "Restore" of ADW Lancher, but I've never made a back up of it.
Long press home screen>Custom shortcut>Pick your activity>Activities>ADW.Launcher>ADW.Launcher(Open/close app drawer)
Drag it back to where you want it
THANK YOU!
Sorry for the trouble.
I think I've seen more threads on this subject than I've seen on Gingerbread! xD

LOL, yeah. I got rid of the open/close app drawer altogether and have a swipe up action to open my app drawer. This way it give me one more shortcut on the dock anyway.
Same thing happened to me last night. Took me an hour to figure out how to get it back. LOL
Hello,
I bought the Galaxy recently,and changed his rom.
Rom comes with Launchrpro,and I am very satisfied with it.
But I want to stay with the original rom menu (TW). is this possible?
In addition, I want to get the applications menu in folders.is this possible?
Thanks
I don't know which rom you are using but if that rom gives you both option then go to
settings> application> manage application> choose TW> set default (you can clear defaults too)
Hope this works for you.
There are custom roms that offer touchwiz, and you can always install it afterwards too (e.g. From apk found off the forums, or via sgs tools app).
Doc rom kitchen is a great place to start.
The app menu is launcher specific, afaik there aren't any that allow you to arrange your apps into folders, and launcherpro is the only one that lets you hide icons.

Tnx but I know that I can switch to TW.
I want to stay with Launchrpro and replace just the menu like TW.

What menu are you talking about? (screenies would be nice)
The first picture(left) is the menu I want to go back to.
This second picture menu I have now, in the launcherpro
I wish to keep launcherpro because of the comfortable home screens.
That menu is called app drawer a part of the launcher and what you want I believe not possible with launcherpro. If you want the horizontal scrolling + menu in app drawer I mean. You are better off with another launcher. Like ADW launcher or some modified TW.
As near as I can tell, what you are showing in the first pic is the TWLauncher homescreen, while in the second you are showing the App Drawer in LauncherPro.
It is easy to reproduce a similar homescreen in Launcher Pro. On your main screen, just press the button to open your App Drawer (the thing shown in your second picture). The press and hold the icon for an App you wish to put on your homescreen. Your view will switch to your homescreen, with a garbage can at the bottom. Position the icon where you with it, or drop it into the trash and start again. Once you have everything on the first homescreen that you want, go to the second screen, reopen the App Drawer, and add apps just as you did before.
You can control the number of homescreens you have, and which opens by default, from the Launcher Pro Preferences menu.

As you can see if you look closely BOTH pics are app drawer . Look first pic, grey bar down (home screen has it black) and Home button which doesnt exist in the homescreen since there is the Applications button
To OP look what I wrote you up . Or you could kinda put all yours apps on your homescreen like rschenck said.
Try Go Launcher, free in market. It lets you have the "side swiping" app drawer/menu

Quite right, my bad...been a while since I used the TWLauncher.
OP, are you asking to be able to horizontally scroll through apps, or to have buttons for Phone and other key tasks on the same page as all your apps?
I am still thinking that you can either jury rig a solution using Pro, or as Pagot suggests, try other launchers, there are lots of good ones out there...ADW, Pro, GO, Zume, plenty of others.
Every time I restart my phone, it forgets all the home screen settings. When it starts back up, it asks which launcher I want to use (I prefer ADW EX), and when it gets to the home screen, all widgets and wallpapers are gone. I thought it might have something to do with ADW, so I restarted the phone, and chose the stock launcher. Again, all widgets were gone and the wall paper was changed.
Any clue why this is happening?
Mine is similar on cyanogenmod and removes the messaging icon after every reboot.
