Changing Default Home Screen

[modest_16081982]

I have a Samsung Galaxy S (Vibrant) with Android 2.1. Right now I have 7 home screens but it is very annoying that the middle home screen (no. 4) becomes the default home screen (when you press the Home icon). I want to make Home Screen No. 1 (left most) to be default.

Is there a way to do with without installing apps like Launcher Pro?

Yes. From the homescreen:

Press menu

Edit

Then you can go to the screen you want, and select Make as Home

I don't see the "Make as Home" option. All I see is just two options: "Save" and "Discard"

When you scroll over to the screen you want, there should be a gray bar across the screen that states "set as home"

May be in your version of Android. In my I do not see any kind of gray bar. The only way I can set my screen as the default home screen is by moving it to number 4 position.

What kind of device are you using? Can you post a screen shot of that gray bar that you are talking about?

I noticed that you have Verizon version. The T-Mobile Android version (2.1-update1) does not have this option unfortunately.

Thanks very much for the effort though. Really appreciate it.

Yes. i have the Verizon version.

But, it has nothing to do with 2.1-update 1. This is the same OS im running.

Im assuming its Verizon's version of TouchWiz
