How can I reset my Galaxy tab 2 7 to its original settings?

When turning on my Galaxy Tab 2 7, it used to work with just a touch to change from screen to screen by just swiping my finger from right to left, or left to right, but not it is requiring me to tap the screen once and then twice to open it, and it will not allow me to go to any other screens other than the main screen. How to I get it to go back to the original setting that allowed me to change screens by just swiping my finger from right to left?

I have a galaxy tab 2 7.0

If it's a Samsung you can either use a feature called screen mirroring that your TV has or send the video directly to the TV via wireless using AllShare Cast since the Galaxy Tab 2 tablet supports it. I've done it with videos. Unfortunately, you bought the one model that does not support HDMI. The original Tabs the Tab 2 10.1 (only, some versions and $40 instead of $10 like the TAB 3 adapter) and the Tab 3 all work using a relatively cheap adapter or dock.

To many patten attempts

  1. With the Samsung Galaxy TAB turned off, press and hold the VOLUME Down button, and then briefly press the POWER button.
Note: If you see "Downloading" on the screen with an Android shoveling you pressed the wrong Volume key. Remove and reinsert the battery and try again.
