Blinkfeed I hate you

[Geezerb]

I previously removed it from my screen. Today, while checking battery hogging apps, I noticed it was still using 14%. I cleared cache & settings for this app.
Next phone reloaded like the first day layout. I lost all my customized pages & folders. So pissed right now. Is there any way to find the previous layout? Anything back that up? Don't know where to start.

BlinkFeed is the actually launcher for the device, not just the news feed. You can turn off the news feed but not the launcher unless you go with Nova or something.

You just deleted all your launcher settings, unless you had backed them up, they're gone

How can I check for backups? Do I need a 3rd party app? I have HTC sync on but probably not what I need.

I don't think you can cherry pick from HTC backup on an app-by-app basis. But I haven't used it, so can't be sure.

You have Htc back up on the phone and there is many back up apps in the playstore. Try a Google search, Google is your friend
