How do you disable quick settings and get it back to where you have a home page and swipe left or right to get to the other pages?

OK? That's not answering my question. Sure I could download a different launcher but that's not what I asked. I'll be more specific! If I wanna use the default launcher is there a way to disable quick settings so I can have a middle home page and be able to swipe left or right to additional pages?

I'm sure there is a way. This is android.if you don't like something, you just have to dig into the code and change it
The way is to download a different launcher
Curious as to why you don't like it? Since you can add other home pages to the right it seems like there enough. I find the quick settings page very convienient.

That's how it is implemented with all of the HTC devices I've used

I find it extremely useful
My quicksettings pulldown. Tapping it will toggle on/off, holding it brings up the settings for whatever you touched. It's also customizable.
How does that help the OP? Can you download something that will do this on the Razr?

Can it be done on a non HTC phone?

That exact design is based on HTC sense... But yes you can do pull down quick settings on a non HTC device.

I agree with you 100%. I can't stand that! I never use the "home" button. I just can't get in the habit of it. So if I have 5 pages and I'm on the 4th, I'll just keep swiping the same way to get to my home screen. I hate how it ends on both ways. When Droid-Life reviewed the Razr M I asked if that could be shut off and he replied NO. I keep checking here every day for the same answer your looking for. And I to need some of the stock widgets and don't want to use another launcher. But I think I might have to. It's more important for me to swipe through than widgets.
Please explain how to have power toggles in notification bar. I would love to do that.
Edit: i installed widgetsoid. Problem solved. Now i can use another browser and still have quick settings in pull down menu.
Now my pulldown looks like this:
Anybody know of an app to program the recent apps key to do something useful?
Download One More Clock Widget, and select their Chrome Rings theme. It doesn't display a few words of the latest text message in the leftmost ring like the stock Android widget does, but other than that it's a great knockoff.

I'd like something like that, too if someone knows anything. I wish you could change the recent apps key to a permanent menu key.
