Defaulting to iphone home screen

Has anyone noticed since the latest upgrade of iphone 1.1.1 that when you are using the browser or itunes store that sometimes the screen will momentarily freeze and then switch by itself to the Home screen (icons)? I was using the browser this morning and when I tapped on a link, instead of going to that link it went to the phones home screen as if I had pressed the Home button, which I didn't. Same thing happened a few minutes ago when I was using the itunes store.
anyone seen this happen? Any fix that you know of?
thanks,
Gary

Try a Reset by pressing/holding the Home key and Sleep/Wake or On/Off key simultaneously until seeing the white Apple logo which forces a system restart. This does not affect any data or settings.

Try a reset which is similar to a computer restart and is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously you see the Apple logo and then release.

Custom Icon for iPhone Home Screen

Does anyone know if there's a way to upload an icon to the site so that people can add it to their iPhone home screens? Thanks!

Hi!
If you use Business Catalyst you can use the file upload to put the file apple-touch-icon.png to the root. iPhone will then recognize this file when you create a shortcut.
You can also access your Muse files via FTP (I'm on a Mac and use Cyberduck), and upload the file to the root there.
Tip: Create your icon in 300x300 pixels with 327 dpi. This will make the icon look really sharp and great on Retina displays.

Cannot move applications to previous pages from iPhone home screen

This is a recent issue that I just noticed today. When I press and hold on an app from my iPhone home screen, I can move it around within its own page, or move it to succeeding pages. However, the phone will not allow me to move the app to a PREVIOUS page! It quickly tries to move to the the left, until it resets itself on the current page its on. My only way around this is to synch the apps from iTunes. Has anyone else been experiencing this bug?

Thanks for the advice, but this still does not work. Again, I've had no problems moving apps between home screen pages until now. This seems to have occurred right after downloading an app from the app store today. I'm running OS 3.1.2, and the phone will literally "pull back" an app I'm trying to move to a previous page, whether I move it to any previous page (currently using four pages of apps at the moment). It will let me move an app to a subsequent page, but then it's stuck there (i.e. it cannot be moved back to the page I moved it from). The only way to move it back is through iTunes. What the heck is going on here?

Change IPhone home screen

Is there anyway that you can change your Iphone home screen from black to whatever you want it to be?

1. Is there a way you can point me in that direction? if not, Is apple coming out with an option with this feature?
No. That would violate to terms of usage for the forums. We would be in big trouble. Speculation of unannounced features s also not allowed.
2.Then in getting the software, will it void my warranty?
Yes, hacking the iPhone voids the warranty.

IPhone defaulting back to home screen, freezing and in a loop of rebooting/asking for passcode

iPhone 4, just over a month old, about 2 weeks into use has been playing up since.... I'm certain the problem is the same, but it manifests in different ways, usually daily. If unused for a period (as in an hour or two), the iPhone (when pressing the home button) goes to the black reboot screen, then asks for passcode, back to reboot, passcode and into an interminable loop.
Attempting to launch applications, or the internet, will just revert back to the home screen (as if the home button is pressed), or often, the home button will not work at all.
The onyl way of rectifying this is to shut off or - as this is sometimes not possible - screen and all buttons unresponsive - rebooting (holding home button & one of button)
I'm hoping it's a simple case of reinstalling something, or perhaps reverting to factory settings, but wonder if anyone else has experienced anything similar.

IPhone home screen is zoomed in and will not zoom out. How do I get it back to normal?

My iPhone 6 home screen is zoomed in and will not return to normal, How do I get it back to normal?

If that did not work, then try triple-tapping the home button. If that does not work, then double-tap 3 fingers and hold on the screen, dragging to change the zoom level. If you need to move the screen around to be able to access something to get the device unlocked, then use 3 fingers to drag the screen around after trying to change the zoom level.

Delivery Address coming as a default in the home screen for creating a SHC

Dear Experts
I have done some changes in the delivery address and while saving it was asking to maintain as a default address otherwise it was not able to save the changes I made.So I maintained it as a default and saved the changes.
Now the issue is when we are in the home screen for creating a SHC this delivery address is coming as default.As we dont want this dekivery address to be default on the screen and the requirement is that user should be able to search the delivery address.
So we dont want that defaulted address.The other reasons were also checked and no where in the attributes we ahave maintained this default delivery adress.
Can you please help us how can we remove this defaulted delivery addres in the SHC creation screen.
Thanks and Regards
Vikas

HI Muthu
Thanks for the reply.
I again repeat I think you have not understood my question.These are very basic things you are mentioning about how to change the delivery address.i know all about this and in my query I have clearly asked that during the change option its asking to maintain the default delivery address and even if I dont select it my changes wont be saved.Second is even if I maintain another delivery address only then from the first delivery address the default screen will be unticked.
Because the issue here is that what ever the delivery address is maintained its defaulting in the shop screen for the creation of the SHC.
So my reequirement is how to set this.I have checked attributes and nowhere this delivery address has been maintained.
Brief about Issue:
We have done some changes in the delivery address (Transaction Edit
internal addresses in the URL screen)and during the save it was asking
us to maintain it as a default address without which it was not able to
save.So after saving on the creation of the shopping cart screen this
delivery address is coming as a default value.
We dont want this to be defaulted and the user should have the search
functionality for the delivery address.This problem is happening for
the org id for which I have done the changes.When i assign my user id
to the other org id the defaulted delivery address is not shown on the
shopping cart creation home screen.
We have checked in the attributes of the user and the org id and
nowhere this delivery address has been maintained.
I have checked the settings for the other org id for which it was not
showing as defaulted on the shopping cart creation screen and compared
these two and was not able to find any difference.Could you plase let
us know the problem in this case.
Regards
Vikas

When I'm on my iPhone home screen

IF I swipe my home screen to the right & back an icon will disappear. If I repeat the process it turns to normal or another one will disappear.

Did you change any AppleID accounts or anything? I've seen this happen when changing accounts or certain restore situations.
If you are using iCloud you should be able to reset your phone to Factory Defaults and restore from iCloud, but it always makes me nervous.

Dot shaped widget in iphone home screen

I'v seen an iphone 6 in one of the showrooms. it has dot floating on the home screen whcih show certain shortcuts when touch, how can I enable this on my phone I'v searched the internet for this and I didn't find any mention about it.

Hi ahmed@apple,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like Assistive Touch may have been enabled on the iPhone 6 you saw.
You can turn on this feature by going to Settings > General > Accessibility, and turning on AssistiveTouch.
See the article below for this step and more information about Assistive Touch:

IPhone Home Screen Identifier?

Does anyone know if/what the identifier (variable) is for the iPhone homescreen? For instance on the BB the home screen was always 'bbhome'; is there anything like this on the iPhone?
Thanks

Anyone have any ideas? Maybe a better example will help...... A background running app can grab things like lock/unlock events, does anyone know of a way that it could identify if the user was on the homescreen and not in another app?

Iphone Home Screen button

So, recently my iphone fell straight into a toilet, literally completely submerged, everything surprisingly works except the home screen button, so I would have to turn of the phone and turn it back on, recently though it starts to work amazingly, but then sometimes it wont, its like 50/50, when it got wet also there was a problem with the dock icons sensing but when I brought it to the mac store they fixed it by, tightening the wires?, if I bring it to the mac store could they fix the home-screen button, its so weird because it works and then it sometimes doesn't?

There are moisture senors in the headphone socket and the base socket which will now be red.They will take one look at that (they do this first), and then point out that the warranty has been voided by immersion.
You only option will be an out of warranty replacement for £149.
