Help Return To Home Screen

Hello,

Is there any settings or apps that will allow SF to return to the home screen when you turn on the phone again? It would be nice not to have to hit the home button each time I turn the phone back on?

Thanks JR

Do you mean that you want to bypass the lock screen on boot-up?
 
Hello,

Sorry no. When I unlock to enter phone, it is always on the last application. I would like to have it so when I unlock it is at the home screen.

Do you also have a suggestion to bypass the unlock?

Thanks JR
 
When you are finished using an application, you can either "back out" of it to the home screen using the back arrow key, or you can click the menu button and select "exit," in most apps.

Leaving apps open while going from one app to another, or when you powering down your device, uses up a lot of resources needlessly.

There are apps available in Market which address the lock screen preferences, just do a search in Market under "lock screen," etc.

If you use Widget Locker, it has an option under Advanced, "Always unlock to Home". It's not a free app, but it's worth the price of admission.
