how to add or remove screens galaxy s4 4.2.2

[golfafire]

How do you add, remove or rearrange the main 7 screens on the GS4 using 4.2.2? The GS3 you just held down your finger on the screen and all your screens came up for editing.

That is a Samsung thing, not part of stock JB.

Did you try sliding left or right from screen to screen?

Usually you can do a pinch gesture on one of your screens and they will all appear at once with options to add, move or rearrange, have you tried that?

If you are stock android 4.2.2 you need to download a launcher from the google store such as APEX or one of those.

I am an Android newbie... and was wondering for a very long time how to add and remove pages!!.. Pinching worked! Thanks a ton!!

Ok this is a different question all together, but I could not find how to post my own question. I somehow deleted my add a page; page. When I use the pinch gesture to get to the edit pages the add a page is no longer there. Is there a way to get it back?

What about double tapping the home button? Does that bring up the add a home page option for you?

If it doesn't, I would suggest going into the settings of the launcher app (menu > system settings > applications (all) > twlauncher (it might be named something else)) and clear data. It should restore defaults and will clear any configuration you have set on the home screen.

Ok tried the double tap that didn't work. I will try your next suggestion

Hoping you guys might still be following this post...I have two main screens. How do I swap them over to change which one is the home screen? Thankyou.

There should be a small home icon on top of all the screens. The one that is lit up white is the home screen. You can tap the icon to change home screens
