Hello,
On my old S1 I had CarHome app and whenever i pressed the home button it returned to the main scree not CarHome and not to the 'desktop' of the launcher
In S3 I tried already 4-5 CarHome like apps but all of them don't control the home button and when pressing it, it quits the CarHome app and goes to the main screen.
Is there any solution to that?
It was very convenient when in a car to switch between apps using this method, because in CarHome the icons are big and easy to locate and press.
Thanks

First off I'm new to the Gtab. I'm currently running Vegan 5.1. Everytime I hit my hard home button it takes me to a switchboard with four buttons. In order to get go my actual home screen I have to select the home icon. This is becoming extremely annoying hitting two buttons every time to get home. Is this normal or am I missing a setting?
What launcher are you using? There is usually a tab in the settings menu for what tapping the home key does.
I'm currently using the VLT launcher just released, but it does the same thing for stock launcher and launcher pro. I scoured the settings and can't find the home button setting. Saw it in Launcher pro but it didn't change anything. Not sure what else to try at this point.
The screen it sends me to appears to be the screen you see when you would place your phone on the dock. It has the alarm clock button, music, home, and gallery button on the bottom with only the time showing.
Button savior works correctly. Unfortunately I'm not a button savior fan. This its the only bug on my tab and its driving me nuts.
Just wanted to update. I read a lot of other Vegan users having this same issue. I ended up freezing the Clock app using Titanium and that corrected the issue. Not sure what other adverse effects that will cause but it worked for me.
Anybody have any other ideas how to fix this? I'm using TNT Lite 4.4 with Launcher Pro. I've set the home button to "Do nothing" in Launcher Pro preferences, and also checked the option that says "Home key to default screen" but neither one of those seems to have had an effect. Thanks!
I have had my Galaxy S2 for a few days now. Originally when I pressed the home button it would take me to the center home screen ( I use LauncherPro ). Suddenly it started going to this screen - see attached screen shot.
Does anyone know how to fix?
That looks like the dock which is in the Clock application.. I can suggest a few things.
1. Check settings in launcher pro and see what the home binding option is.
2. Go to clock application and clear any defaults, then press home button and select launcher pro as default.
3. Uninstall and re-install launcher pro and press home button and set launcher pro as default.

You were right, it was the home screen landing setting in launcher pro, I had inadvertently switched it to hide notification bar, and instead the car dock screen showed up when I pressed it. All fixed now!
Hey guys,
Has anyone been successful in finding a decent task switcher to use with CM7 and the touchpad since the home button and search buttons are emulated? I've tried using itching thumb and some others, but most don't seem to work, especially the long-press search button option in most of 'em.
home button is not emulated. just hold the touchpads home button down for a bit and a multitasking pane where you can switch between background apps will pop up.
Try Task Changer: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/8489-new-version-of-task-changer-now-with-back-option/
It's on the Market. You can just hold down the hardware home key though.
Wave launcher works great

Does any one now if there is a home button hot key for the Rii Mini bluetooth keyboard?
Its driving me made not being able to flip back to the home screen or quickly open task manager.
Just searched through the forums and didn't see an answer to this elsewhere although I'm sure its there. Just got my s4 (mk2 firmware) and using nova launcher. I have nova setup so that the home button always just goes to the default home screen, no alternative action. If i'm on that screen and press the home button again my app drawer comes up though. Default phone feature or something I can change?
Thanks,
Eric
