    I made a backup before updating to Cyan and right now my Lumia 520 is downloading all the apps that I used to have because I chose to restore the backup. Is there any way to get back the home screen I used to have back? I can't find the option to restore the star/home screen anywhere.

    Well, if you were on the 8.1DP prior to the update, you should have an option to backup settings that include your Start Screen layout.

    Otherwise, screenshots or bust!

    I did have an option to backup but no option to restore it once the update finished installing.

    It's been a while since I did a hard reset, but it seems like once the apps finished reinstalling, I rebooted my phone (might have been a soft reset) and the start screen came back then. I may have dreamed it, though. ;)

    Oh. I thought there's no way of getting it back now so I rearranged it again myself :)
