Hi guys, I have a problem with my phone, today whenever I press the home button it will ask for a launcher, I already choose to always instead of just once, it ask for either oneplus launcher or my installed rootless pixel launcher. I running OOS 5.0.4 no root or anything.
Any help is appreciated, thank you.
Set home app in settings.

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
As some have now noticed, there is a new bug in JB related to waking the device using the home screen under certain configurations.
[size=+1]How to reproduce:[/size]
Set lockscreen to None (might affect others types?? - default Swipe is NOT affected)
Open any app
Lock screen with power button
Press home button
[size=+1]Expected result (and how it worked in ICS):[/size]
The phone wakes, and you're back at the app you had opened before locking the screen
[size=+1]Actual result:[/size]
The phone wakes, but the home key press is processed as if the phone WAS NOT asleep.
In other words: it's like you hit the home key and you're taken to the launcher as normal. Or alternatively, if you locked the phone while at the launcher, whatever action you have configured for the home key in the launcher is triggered (for example, opening the app drawer).
[size=+1]Some notes:[/size]
Tested with both stock TW launcher and Apex - same result
Tested after OTA update, and full wipe - same result

I've tried these suggestions in various combinations... so far no fix that works.
So lets see if we can use our collective intelligence and fix this.
Yes please! It's bugging me like hell!
After some further testing:
If you have S-Voice installed, and the "Open via the home key" option enabled, this bug will not happen.
Which is fine and good if you want a 1 second delay every time you press the home button.
And who wouldn't want that - right Samsung? /sarcasm
any fix for this yet?
nvmd, looks like the fix could be here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2009218
nope, so far the existing solutions do not work

No bug in here. I did what you said and after i press home button i get back to app not home screen.
that's very weird, many people I've read on XDA have this problem.
What launcher do you use?
Are you using 4.1.1. stock rom?

Did you see my follow up?
You probably have S-Voice enabled on home button double press, right?

Same difference, I guess. The problem is only present when you don't have a double-press function assigned on the home button.

I use Home Button Shortcut
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
I usually had gestures where it would replace Google Now when i swipe up from the home button to sleep my phone. I was using SenseToolBox. But after updating to 4.4.3 that stopped working.
Is there another app where I can modify the home button swipe options to replace Google Now? I just want to have the to make it go to sleep when i swipe up from the home button, instead of going to Google Now.
Thanks !

With this app you can change the swipe up action: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.AdrianCampos.swipeuputility
And you could set it to launch a screen-lock app such as: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.katecca.screenofflock
Is there a rom that does this without having 2 apps doing it?

I just saw that the Swipe Up app has a built-in function to turn off the screen, so you actually only need that one app
Yep I saw that. But I don't think it's worth paying money for that one function though. I remembered in most custom roms I've used with my Nexus4, that ability was built in for free. Oh well, thanks for the help anyways!
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.
