Anyone know if there are downsides to using modified desktop? I am wondering if systems updates would still happen, etc..

Once a system update happens, it would get over-written. So you'd lose the extra desktops.

Not sure about system updates, but I don't think it would be a big problem.. Even if it is.. Just backup what you need, then flash the device to the latest firmware..

So I came here and power searched to see if there's a topic already started about this and I didn't find any so here we I am posting this!
If you want more than 4 home screens follow the instructions on this page!
