If you switch over to nova launcher, you can set up all sorts of button combos and stuff like that
I think the "problem" you had with the home key not take you to your first page was just because of how the MIUI launcher works

Now that I have installed Google Now, I notice when I double tap the home button S Voice doesn't open up anymore. I checked the setting and the button is ticked to set S Voice to open on double tap of the home key. Any suggestions? I don't know if my installing Google Now had anything to do with it, but I noticed it stopped working round about the time I installed now.Please help.

You can program that if you use Nova Launcher or depending on your rom, you can program it from settings.

I just got this phone today and so far I love it. One thing that is bothering me is the google search widget that is on the home screen. Is there a way to remove this? I've tried everything I can think of. Thanks!

You can disable it but you can't use the space it used to take up at the top of the home screen. I just got holo launcher (a home screen app) and now I have all that space usable too.

After disable Google Search, try to apply the theme again and the search bar should be disappeared.
So I was messing with my dads Nexus 4. Is there a Launcher or something I can use to have on screen keys? I'd love to have that recent apps button. Thanks, and call me a noob or whatever.

You can achieve this with most AOSP roms by enabling the nav bar. No launcher required If you're on touchwiz then I don't think so.
Go to the play store and search "recent apps" there will be one by "factory widgets" and then add it to the homescreen and it will perform like the button.
Does anybody know if its possible to program the home so a double tap brings up messaging and a long press brings up Google now? If so how could I do that?

If you are running stock TW then the short answer would be no. If you are using a custom launcher like Apex or Nova there are settings in the launcher behavior section where you can tweak to perform actions.
yeah, it's impossible on touchwiz,
I don't know about the customizability of the button on launchers, since i don't use them

If you hold down the menu button it'll bring up Google now. Unless you're in an app then it'll pop up the search engine. You're on your own on the messaging one tho lol. Double taping home takes you to S. Voice.

I would like to remove the long press menu "kill app" feature in the custom rom I'm running. It removes the search phone function that I prefer over the kill app feature. A lot of roms doing it now. Any help would b appreciated. Thanks in advanced.

MOAR gives you the option to set double tap home to launch google now.
Sent from a planet far far away.
Or you could just install Nova Launcher and swipe up, swipe down, etc to launch Google Now.
I just wanna remove it from the ROM. Thanks for the help and suggestions.

I'd love to get rid of it too.. Frequently part of my finger will press it unintentionally.. Quite irritating when I'm playing Modern Combat 4.
Guess its a no go :banghead:

Hmm...When I'm on my home screen and hold the menu button it still launches google search/now, I'm using the stock launcher. Maybe I'm misunderstanding? Anyhow I don't know how to make it work normal, but maybe asking your rom dev very nicely will bring about a fix for you.:good: Honestly I love the kill app feature.

Way off topic so please excuse me, just like to ask what's your player name? Curious if I've played against you on mc4, I got a bit crazy and ordered the new moga controller the other night, hope it's as good as I've heard.
I already tried asking the Dev but nothing. I'm getting used to it already so it's not bothering me as much
