Home button mapping - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Is anyone else going crazy with the home button opening voice command constantly when it wasn't your intent? Is there a way to change this mapping in stock? The phone is also rooted if it matters.
Thanks in advance.

I love that function.
Almost all dev roms now have removed that feature. Check the development section.

I hated it. Use titanium backup to freeze voice command

Freezing was a good idea. That resolved for me, I hadn't thought of doing that until you mentioned it. Thanks

Holding search button causes FC

Every time I hold the search button, it causes a force close. I suspect this is because I restored vlingo with TB upon setting up the phone (I didn't realize vlingo came on the phone). However, uninstalling vlingo has no effect. Also, I checked Vlingo, Voice Search, Voice command, etc., and I don't see any of them mapped to the search button (I can't click clear defaults on any of them). Is there a way to tell what is mapped to the search button, and change it?
Thanks
Might have something to do with the lockscreen/AIO mod that's been included with recent roms. Mine does the same thing, it's just buggy.

Good thought. I did run the AIO mod. I am running the stock kernel currently, but it's rooted.

Are you on Starburst rom? If so you need to go into lockscreen settings and map an application to the long hold search. This should eliminate the FC.

I'm on the stock rom, but your suggestion worked! I didn't realize that's where the mapping was. Thank you so much!

No worries, glad it worked.

There is a theme option in the settings. But it is greyed out. Any ideas to get that available? Also this keyboard is great.

Launcher default issues

This started happening to me out of no where. Can anyone think of a solution or the cause of this issue ?
Everytime I hit the home key it will ask me to choose a default launcher. After I do, it will ask me again every time I hit my home key.
Im choosing Touchwiz, the other option is Go home since it comes with my rom.
I'm running Calkulins 2.9.2 rom.
I have uninstalled apps related to Widgets and launchers, cleared defaults etc..
How could I uninstall the go home app completely? Maybe that will do it.
Thanks in advance everyone !

First, you are checking the default checkbox before you select the launcher after pressing home right?
Yes. lol
I could only wish it was that simple.
Its not really a big deal but after a while its annoying having to push an additional button.

Well, just use root explorer or something to delete the application, or just use like titanium backup and un install it that way

It does I solved your issue use a different service. That's not hard to comprehend at all. Clearly the built in screen shot isn't that great so use a different service. There are plenty of options on the play store.

Thanks again for ur response but I insist this does not solve my issue since I want the STOCK SCREENSHOT SERVICE to have a better quality and I bet that changing the build. U can do that unfortunately I don't know which properties to change for it to be done and that's why I ask the question here to see if any DEV could lead me into the right direction otherwise I would've just go to the play store and download one of those screenshot apps u mention!!

Why try to figure it out? As an app thats like 80kb and does a better job dude clearly that rom dev didnt want it to be best quality. You could have already taken a thousand of screenshots in perfect quality if you had just downloaded an app.
I don't understand you reason to use the built in service. Your not benefiting At all.

The reason why I want the built in is because the apps either put an icon on the screen or u have to use a shake movement for it which makes it bad since I'm always moving and the damn phone start taking screenshots if I find one that I could just merge it into the power menu or the screenshot combination buttons then yes it works For me
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
I honestly can't see a difference from the screenshots I take with the built in feature and the original screen. They look the same when viewed on my phone unless I send them thru the messaging app which compresses them.

See thats easy to fix. Dude in most apps give you the option to turn it off any other ways to do it. And when I try to take a screenshot with power menu it would hit pause on games and bring me to a menu. Unlike using an app where it doesnt have that issue.

My screen shots are crystal clear and as mentioned, they only get blurry when i try to send them due to compression

an app will not embed it to the power menu thats done within the ROM itself ask the Rom Dev to bake it in.
But an app like screenshot by Kastor Soft with the nexus icon for the app is really good.

[Q] Terrible lag when turning off the screen?

Has anyone else noticed that there a noticeable lag when turning off the screen? The slight fade out animation seems to stutter and there is about a 1-2 second delay from when i press the power button to it actually doing something. This is probably one of the weirdest places for a phone to lag.
Anyone else have this problem?
I'm running on stock rooted BTW.
EDIT (more info): This doesn't happen right after a factory reset. I takes a bit of time for it to happen which makes it seem like some app messing it up, but it happens even if there isn't anything installed besides the default stuff.

Could you link them? I looked in the Q&A section and didn't find anything. The search feature is currently down so I cant use that. If this is in fact a duplicate thread, then I'll get it closed up.
