(before question shout out to how great home ++ is) ok so i've tried ish some home replacements before(and by tried i mean installed didnt like look or quite get it and uninstall(when i first got phone)). i started to youtube home++ became very intrested and installed it and love it so far! great alternative i think everyone should try it out! ok now to question this is my first time posting so hello all! now that i have home++ installed i notice that my original "home screen" is always running in the background,so is there a way to "deactivate"(for lack of better terminology). doesnt it take up cpu/gpu resources and then new home screen does also in turn draining battery or slowing phone down? if no way to deactivate should i goto original and turn off stuff like live wallpapers and also remove any widgets that update regularly so i dont have it running twice? sorry if this is a dumb question just kind of new to home screen replacements! Ty for the help!

I had the same question a while back... No way to really "deactivate" the old home screen.. So what I did was took off all widgets, icons, etc. Left the old homescreen completely blank. I noticed this helped battery life and smoothness of the home++.
I wish someone would make a custom rom with ONLY home++ as the homescreen.

I see you're new so maybe you need some time getting used to it
