I know on a prior rom I installed I somehow got it so that a single press on my home button from the home screen opened the red mic for voice search. Does anyone remember how to set this?
Many third party launchers such as nova launcher for example you could set the home button to do many different options. Not sure what you are running but if you install a launcher and go into settings you could set it to do that

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!
When I wake up my phone with the home key, it usually takes me the the "recent apps" screen (as if I long-pressed home), so I have to press 'back' to get rid of it. I just want it to turn the screen on.
I am running Slimkat 4.4.2 with Nova launcher. I can't find a setting on the rom or Nova to disable this.
It did the same thing when I was on Whomp rom (with Nova).
It doesn't seem to do this on the stock launcher. Is this a known Nova issue?
Anyone else have this issue, or a solution?
Thanks!
Mike
It could be nova launcher. I use apex and don't have this issue

I'm using CM 11 and since it's using 4.4.2 Kit Kat so I don't know if SlimKat have the same... you may solve it if you go to your phone settings - buttons - home button and put a check there. There are other adjustments under buttons setting you can find there too.
Good luck!
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.
When I long-press Home button it opens Google app, but I would like to change to DuckDuckGo, I had it working on S5 but I can't find where to do this in the Note 7 settings?
Try this? It's for a different app but this is how I can get home button launcher to launch any app while holding the home button instead of Google assistant.

You can set in the app whatever you want to launch while holding the home button.
