Sounds like you might have froze BLUR HOME. Are you using another home launcher

No, I don't think I did though, I could be wrong. What's my next step? Factory Reset?>

That's what I kind of figured. I did the same thing before. I would bet money that you froze the blur home apk. You are going to have to do a factory reset to get it to come back up

Did the factory reset, all is well. Just wish It didn't have to go that far. I'm 99.9999% sure i didn't freeze anything blur but oh well. I removed all icons and widgets from the home screen, back at it again.

I'm using titanium backup. FYI I tried freezing again and the same thing happened. I wonder if you use backup assistant and you try and freeze it that may cause this? I didn't get very far down the list before I tried to go back and my homescreen was gone again.

1st off what exactly are you freezing? Secondly, and this is why I asked what you used, is you're going to have to make sure titanium backup isn't re-installed. At least until you can be certain that you didnt freeze something accidentally. Once it re-installs whatever you chose to freeze will automatically be frozen again.

No backup assistant wouldn't do that. What list are you referring too?

there is something in that list that my phone doesn't respond to well. I froze all the apps I found appropriate and I'm having no problems... maybe look through it and Identify which one is causing the issue? Or I can reproduce the issue by freezing and checking the screen one by one.
