I have made a massive mistake with my Note 4!

It was all set up exactly as I wanted.

However recently I have been getting these annoying pop ups about using Touch Wiz or Easy TouchWiz as  launchers. I have ignored them.

Last night I turned my phone off completely. When I turned it back on the screen was black apart from these two messages about blumming Touch Wiz.

So apparently I had to choose one. I chose Easy Touch Wiz.

What a mistake!!

I hate it. I now have a home screen taken over completely by massive icons like so

 

I don't want a torch or a magnifying glass thank you. I am not blind!!

However, I cant get rid of them or Touch wiz in general.

I want it back as it was.

Any Samsung expert got any ideas....?

(before I launch this phone out of the window!!)

Just the Touchwiz, not the easy one.

Any idea what launcher it had previously @MI5? As you know it came to me all set up so I wasn't interested in what launcher you used Confused
