Hi,
I just bought LG G3 from korea, I wanted to replace the dialer so I bought an app. With the home touch buttons I can't access the settings option of the app(non of the touch button is setting) the app worked fine on my galaxy s4.
The issue here is that this happened in more than one app which don't have a link or an icon to it's settings. Is there a fix ?
Please help. Thanks
Try to long press the recent apps softkey.

Guys I need your help. The Back and Menu capacitive keys on my G Pro suddenly stopped working.
The physical Home button still works. What happens is that the app icon or a menu selection nearest the Back or Menu key will be executed.
Ex. the Phone icon on the Homescreen is placed on the bottom left part (stock LG icon dock) so when I press the Back button, it will launch the Dialer, or let's say Im inside the MMS/Messaging app., the conversation in the bottom part of the message list will open if I press the Back or Menu key instead of pulling up the Messaging options or get out of it. I hope you are getting what I'm saying.
I tried installing E98810E (and 10A as well) Philippines .KDZ but I always get an error at 30%. I'm losing hope :crying::crying:

I have that problem too and no oine answer, your screen goes crazy sometimes? Also I flashed Telcel E980H to see if the rom was the problem and it worked for a night, then same problem.
Same problem
I have got the same problem here since yesterday.
My E986 phone is flashed with the turkish kitkat firmware.
Any solution found?
For now I enabled the softkeys to use my phone (nexus style).

Yes, my phone also got the same problem. Now I am using "GMD Auto Hide Soft Keys" (like Nexus) but it's not so user friendly. I am also waiting for this fix,

Problem got worse after some time. The whole bottom of the screen stopped responding.
Flashed my phone back to stock jellybean and got it repaired under warranty. Apperantly a common hardware issue.
Got my phone back a week ago and flashed it again with turkisch kitkat. Everything works fine for now.
Hello, n00b here!
I have a Samsung Galaxy S II (SGH-T989 T-Mobile), that has four 'hard softkeys', that is, touchbuttons (menu, home, back, search) outside the display area [no physical clicky Home button], and can't for the life of me, or with bad google-fu, figure out how to make the Home button take me right back to the home screen (launcher). When I press it once I just get a haptic 'bzz', and nothing at all happens. When I double-click it, as I have set in the settings, it goes to Task Switcher, from where I then can reach the home screen by tapping outside the miniaturized windows of running apps.
But, how to I make a single click go directly to the home screen?
Ideally I'd like to have the four buttons be menu=menu, home=homescreen, back=back, search=taskswitcher. Installing a specific app for it (that preferably won't eat up screen real estate with on-display softkeys), another launcher, another Settings app etc, is all okay by me as long as it fixes this major nag.
I don't get to choose other than a preset list in Settings, though. :/
System info is SAMSUNG-SGH-T989, CyanogenMod 11-20140506-NIGHTLY-hercules, Kernel 3.0.101-DIABLO-3.3, launcher Trebuchet 1.0.
(As a little gripe and boo, CM-11 on the Kindle Fire worked wonderfully, where the three on-display softkeys for taskswitch/home/back did just what I wanted them to. I can't see any reason why a JB'd phone would be unable to remap the keys to a select very few options just because they happen to be outside the actual display area. Especially as Home doesn't lead to the Home Screen. :/ )
Tons of grapefruitgrateful for any help here!

Problem solved, good enough for me - installing Hellybean and getting rid of all KitKat related junk.
Suddenly the phone works like it's supposed to, whee!

SGH-T989 Galaxy S II. Home keys aren't working. Sent phone in for charging port repairs. Sent phone back to replace touch keypad flex cable. Buttons have worked intermittently since. They also light up intermittently. I was hoping this was software related. Kies says the firmware is the latest. Any suggestions? The phone is for my 10yr old. Don't really want to invest in something new for her right now, just for games!

if I long press the home button I get the google now page, if I then press home again it always prompts me to select a launcher.
I've just done a full cse flash of 10i, it happened immediately afterwards.
I tried a full reset of the phone, and it did the same.
any clues how to get rid of this annoying problem ? I seem to be always getting prompted to select my home launcher.
sorry to answer my own question, but it might help someone.
I installed Nova launcher as per a recommendation in another forum, it found that an app I had installed called "apps" had caused an android bug to appear, so I uninstalled it, and all is back to normal now.

maybe a other solution is go into Settings>Home Screen>Select Home and reselect Home.
But I am not sure because I never had this problem
I had this problem with Nova Launcher today, every time I pressed HOME button it would ask me which Launcher to use even with a tick in the remember my choice box. So I selected a different Launcher EASYHome in my case and then back to Nova Launcher and it was fine.
I tried resetting the defaults but it kept asking time and time again , but it was definitely a corrupt app causing the problem..and nova helped me find which one.
I have a similar problem and cant get it to stop, i have a quickcircle case and everytime i open the case to unlock it shows me the screen to select the launcher but disapears right after, im using v10i with Nova on D855 no root.
how to get nova launcher to tell you which app is the issue.
Excuse my ignorance, but how does nova launcher show you which app is the issue. When I click the multitask button and then the home button, every time the select home option comes up.
I had same problem with an LG Escape2 (and replacement one) and now a 3rd cell LG G Vista. Home Select screen keeps popping up when I click to go back to home page! Keeps asking for default home Screen or easy home screen Driving me nuts. Any fixes? This has been a problem mentioned by some Samsung owners
Hey guys.
This is a rather unusual question and I'm hoping someone would know the answer to this.
I downloaded an app called Atooma (which is similar to Tasker except this is FREE).
The app itself allows a user to launch an app when a trigger is activated. In this case I am trying to create a task that will simulate a Home Button press when I unplug the headphones (to go back to the home screen)
The question I have is : Does anyone know which app is triggered when you press the home button ?
(Settings > Apps > All Apps)
I originally thought it was "com.htc.launcher" but I can verify that its not. I tried this and it doesn't do anything
Just a FYI : I have spoken to the Atooma team and they tried this using the 'Launcher' app on the LG phone and it works.
I tried looking for something similar on the M8 but because of Sense 6.0, we dont have a Launcher app.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
can anyone tell me how to add menu choices to the list
when you push power button? I just got g3 on 2 Oct 2015 I upgraded from s4 mini (and I'm very happy with g3 over mini) except I would like to be able to control my ringer options in this menu like on s4 mini when you press power.

thanks
