I want to replace the Androids Default Home screen with my Home
Application.
How can I remove these Properties form the Androids Default Home
screen?

One more Query I had Was.
Is it possible to write an application with an Activity containing a
Button, and on click of the Button the default Home application is
replaced with my Home Screen Application( not using the
ResolverActivity Dialogue Box)?

Any suggestions on how to do is appreciated.

 Thanking in Anticipation
