This is really starting to get in my nerves now that when in an app (especially XDA, FB, Tapatalk) when I press back instead of going to the previous screen it either takes me to the home page or my home screen.
I''ve tried all 3 speed settings on the tap and hold which helped a couple of apps but it sit does it I most.
Anyone else suffer this?

could it b that the app doesnt propely remain in memory? Meaning that if u press the back button once there isn't anything to return to than the home screen or homepage.

It seems to be like this for most apps though.
I have a few niggles with the phone like this, message notification, reception (my T-Mob wireless pointer is far faster on same network)it puts a full stop in front of a lot of words just to name a couple so going to take it back for a replacement.

What does everyone use when exiting apps, home button or back button?
It's my understanding that pressing the home button leaves the app running in the background so more battery would be used?

Back button to close app indeed.

I use back buton as home buton is waaaaaaaay too laggy.

Depends! If I want to check another app quickly then return I use home (multitasking). If I don't want to use again I always press the back button to kill the process.

Since they have different functionality, your question doesn't really make sense. You use both, depending on what you want to do.
Also, the back button doesn't kill the process, afaik there are cases when the application could remain still running.

Yep, messaging and the stock browser...there are others too...
I just stopped trying to close apps one way or the other. I just "do what i want" (e.g. surf to a website, check an app) and then leave the phone without exiting any apps. After some time I'll check the same site/service anyway, and if I want to do something else it's still just a few presses away.
So pretty often when I hold the home button there's like 0,5-2 seconds delay between the vibration and the actual multitask menu to come up. Not like my Galaxy S2 where it always came up immediately. Anyone having this too?

wow it was already a bummer than you had to hold the home button for app switcher but now there is another noticeable delay on top of that?!
I was 50/50 on whether to bite the bullet and preorder my very first android phone. but now I am for sure going to wait till I can test the phone in person at the at&t store.
The lag is caused by the S Voice. "S Voice -> Settings -> Launch S Voice" option needs to be be unchecked. Then the lag should be gone.

How is that connected to multitasking? Anyway... I haven't got this delay but the multitasking menu doesn't feel as smooth as it should... Only time I've experienced the new multitasking as smooth, is with cm9 on sgs2. Sgs2 stock ics is slow as ****

Well s voice is activated by double pressing home button. So the phone is waiting to see if you're going to press the second time to activate s voice, that might cause the lag. By turning it off, it should greatly reduce the lag.
I do not have this issue, but I found that sometimes, when the keyboard is open and you press and hold the home key to open task switcher, the keyboard closes, the task switcher appears for a split second and closes.
This doesn't happen all the time, but once it happens it'll keep happening every time you attempt to open the task switcher with the keyboard open, until you restart the phone.

I belive you are talking about the delay when quitting an app with the homebutton, there is no point in having the system wait for a second press if you still is holding the button. I have turned s Voice of because of the "return to home" lag, that does not help that my multitasking menu sometimes is not showing up as fast as the vibration...
You mean system recognize you want the multitasking menu up after you have hold down the button, gives you a vibration to confirm your command is confimred.. then waits a bit longer just to see if it was a mistake and you instead want s Voice to launch? Although it's even disabled?

Well it doesn't happen always.. And it certainly doesn't have to do anything with s-voice.
Yeah I noticed the same thing too after moving over from the S2

'mDNIe negative effect toggle with home button (press it four times)' is a feature introduced by SiyahKernel. You don't have that on stock.
hi... have problem since 1 day, suddenly, when i press home button i cant return to home menu, now its accueil station... i try to remove no success...i try back up my all system no success.... why im stuck with this now
Sent from my SGH-I717R using xda premium
Sounds like.. You simply installed a new launcher and set it as default.....
Just go to manage apps.. find the offending unwanted launcher and you can either clear defaults do that when you hit home it will give you a voice between it and the TouchWiz launcher. Or just uninstall the one you don't wanna use... then when you hit home there's only one launcher there to open.
no i have only adw ex launcher since 1 years ...i erase all other one with tiyanium but when i press home menu its show dock meny with time and soke shortcut...so when i want retur in my meny i need press back back back...so its not very funny
i try to flash with recovery my old backup and havr same same problem

There's 3 native ways to screen shot built into TouchWiz... and 1 in aosp.
how about you post one instead of describing it?

I was cleaning my screen with a screen wipe this morning and was cleaning the bottom of the screen and all of a sudden the screen turned to all negative look. The screen was off when I did it.
Unlocked phone and everything still negative, a reboot fixed it but what is the key sequence that does this? Only curious sonic don't do it again (or do it to a friends phone and freak them out)
