Galaxy S5 Icons Are Suddenly Large

By 38 Comments

My fiancé suddenly found that all of the icons on her Home screen were much larger in size than they used to be. She accidentally enabled the TouchWiz easy home to be her default Home screen by selecting it on the “Complete action using” dialog.

To fix this issue, she simply had to clear the the application as a default using these steps.

  1. From the Home screen, select the “Apps” slider, then choose “Settings“
  2. Select “Applications“
  3. Tap “Default applications“.
  4. Tap the “Clear” button next to “TouchWiz easy home“.
  5. Press the “Home” button.
  6. When prompted with the “Complete action using” screen, choose “TouchWiz home” (right option).

  6. You hero! I did exactly this and it has driven me mad for a week trying to find out how to reverse it!! Thank you!

  7. omg I was having heart failure as my screen apps were big and I didn’t understand – like batman helping the needy – you helped me and my soul mate ( in the shape of a phone – don’t judge) thank you

  8. Thanks, This worked.

    I must say the Wall Stree Journal is right about Samsung’s version of the Android operating system — it’s horrible. They should just stick to the plain vanilla versoin provided by Google.
