[Q] Trouble with Lock Screen - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

have 2 question:
1.
Juggernaut 4.1, GO Launcher
using Go Locker (or any other ScreenLocker). My actions:
- Set GoLocker as default on press "home".
- Hold "home" and open TaskManager
- press "home" to return to homescreen
- ... and... my android ask me: request to the default action for "home" button
How can I solve this problem! Help, please!!
2.
Can i use another Kernel with Juggernaut ROM ? Other kernel need to use CallRecorder
Thank you for your answers.

Why would you want go locker set as your default home action? do you mean Go Launcher EX? It doesn't matter what setting you have for the home button; it will always launch task manager if you hold down the home button. when you press the home button and it asks for which app to choose, there should be a little box when choosing to set as default. If you want to change a certain default app. Go into setting applications, and find the default app. Then click on it, scroll down and click on clear defaults.
If you are looking for an app to lock your phone by pressing one of the soft touch buttons. I would recommend downloading "Screen Off and Lock" from the marketplace. It is free and works great. You can set it by holding the Search soft touch button on the bottom right of your phone.
Regarding your second question, Yes, you can install a different kernel. I would recommend wiping the cache partition and delvik cache before installing a new kernel. I have used Synergy kernel on several roms that come with a different kernel.
Please post your questions in the Question forum. You will get more answers and plus it wont clutter up the general forums.(A forum administrator has just moved your question into the Question Forum)

if i set as default home action - go launcher, after launch task manager appears that the same query.
This problem occurs when using the launcher pro or other lockers

How to kill Rosie (touchFLO aka SenseUI)

For those of you who dont like the SenseUI...
Last night i was playing around with my brother's new galaxy and installed aHome Lite (free from android market) to gain extra screens for him to use. I then decided out of curiosity to install it on my hero (this will probably work on all ROMs but i have a pre-rooted 2.73.405.5 ROM ala Modaco just for the record)
Those who have used open home or ahome will know that after installation the the home key brings up the option to choose what home panel to use, same thing happens with the hero but not only does it bring up TouchFLO and aHome options but also the standard Home option.
Simply uninstall aHome and your stll left with the to remaining options, 'Home' and 'TouchFLO'. By clicking on 'Home', you will get the default android home screen, simply kill the TouchFLO process in Taskiller (once inside the default Home interface) and voila
I'm not sure this has already been discovered...if so mods please delete this thread.
Peace.
i want to customize the app/dialog which is displayed when pressing home key (normally touchflo starts, but as we can see this can be modified).. any1 knows how to?
go into settings->Applications->Manage. Scroll down to TouchFLO and go into it then click on "Clear Defaults". Now press home button and it'll give you the option to choose which one to go to and you can also tick the "Use this as default" or whatever it says.
thx but this is not what i meant.. i have another app, which should be displayed after a long press on the home key..

longpress home only shows recently started apps. i don't think there is a way to modify that behavior yet.
for those using multiple home apps i would recommend Home Switcher. useful little app
But surely the recently started apps are also the currently running ones too
I'm just thankful the press and hold of Home actually does what it should now and act as a switcher.
It still acts as "apps currently running" for me.

I would like to try this, see what the Hero looks and runs like with standard Android interface.
If I do, and I want to return to the standard Hero setup, do I just reselect "Use this as default" when selecting TouchFlo after pressing the home key?
there must be the ability to change the behaviour of long pressing home key, since at least on rooted phones everything at software level can be modified..

Yup, thats right. If you do find u have accidentally set the Android interface as default, just clear the default the same way you had with the TouchFlo from the 'Manage Applications' menu.
Peace.

How do you know and why there are always max 6 of them ? You think, but for sure this is a list of last used applications ... try to kill some of them and see the list - they are still there.
What I was thinking is a "short home press" usage, which has no function if you are already at "home" ...
Actually I wanted to write "apps recently run".
People claiming they changed it to "apps currently running" with the new update but I am not sure if that's the case.

Great App that allows you to create multiple sofkey shortcuts

I am always looking for Info for good apps, apps that make our phones function even better. Anyways I stumbled upon this app just by doing going through my Apps in the market and finding other apps related or "apps people also installed etc.
It is called home2 home shortcut. What is does it installs as another home launcher but is doesn't replace you current launcher. If you set it as default home it will ask you what launcher you want to use etc. One you do that you can set up the following to open and app and most shortcuts by doing soft key combos
Press home and home again - pick the app that you want to launch when you do the combo
Now click other settings below this above setting
Press home then search key - pick app you want to launch
Press home then back button -pick app etc
Press home and menu button - pick app that you want to launch when you do the combo
Here is a link.

[Q] Can't get Dragon Go! to perform one-button search anymore.

When I first installed Dragon Go a while back I did something that made me able to do a voice search by long pressing the search key. Now I can only get the long press to open the Dragon Go program. I need to then press the record button in the program to begin a voice search. I cannot replicate whatever I did to eliminate the extra button press step. At one point I thought that it might be a Launcher Pro action, but none of the related dragon functions in LP will accomplish this either. I'm running CM 7.2 rc1. Any ideas?
Go to menu settings applications manage applications, scroll to the dragon app select it and select clear defaults.
Thanks for the reply. That was the first thing that I tried, but it still only brings up the search window. It still doesn't initiate the Dragon voice search.
OK I figured it out. Remove all defaults like the previous poster said (thanks!), then instead of choosing the search key action from inside the cyanogenmod input settings menu, just long press the search key and choose the default from the menu that pops up! Yay! I love Dragon again!

[Q] Task switcher went to "old school"?

Hi,
stock Note 2 with root and Nova launcher.
Now the app switcher went to old school mode? When long pressing the home button I get this kind of switcher: http://cdn.androidcentral.com/sites...10/05/thumb_tall_android-froyo-app-switch.png
I have set up in Nova that when pressing home button when on homescreen launches the app switcher - this is the normal one where you can swipe ur programs off.
I cant find any setting about this - heeelp
Thanks

try to reset the Nova settings
Hi,
thanks for the answer. I tried resetting the settings via settings -> application manager -> clear all cache etc. -> no help.
I also tried resetting the settings -> removing the Nova launcher -> tried with TouchWiz -> still same problem. Longpressing the home button still gives me the old-school switcher.
I can launch the "new" appswitcher manually from Nova by assigning any hotkey for that.
Gotta bumb this up a bit!

Can't set default home launcher any more !

Hi everyone,
I was using Buzz launcher as my default launcher, up until a few days ago. What happened then is that pressing the Home button caused an exit from Buzz and the default Huawei Home was shown !! To get back into the Buzz launcher I have to click on the app icon. I can navigate within it as before, until I press the Home button which switches me out to the Huawei Home launcher !
If I remember correctly, there was a Settings entry where you could choose your Home launcher. It seems it is not there any more (or I don't remember correctly and there was never such a settings entry). I tried:
* Manage apps-> clear defaults. Same behavior.
* Factory reset, install Buzz launcher. Same behavior
* Install another launcher. I installed Nova and still, I could not set it as the default launcher: every time I press the Home button, I am back to the default Huawei launcher !!
I am on plain vanilla B708. Any ideas anyone ???
Thanks and regards,
Karl
Which version of Android are you using ? If you are using Android 6.0, Settings -> Home set your default home launcher.

Go to "Manage Apps" > "Default app setup" (icon at the bottom of the screen) > Home
Hope this helps!
Awesome. I started with this problem about three weeks ago. Last night I softbricked my phone and have had to do a stock install and re-install all apps. Same behaviour. Home button goes to the Huawei launcher. This fixed it in seconds.
Weird thing is, I hunted high and low for that setting, and there it was.
Thank you.
