Hoping someone will know, I have had my note 3 for 3 weeks. Each time I restart my phone or each time I click the home button, the action Window comes up asking me to choose from touchwiz home or touchwiz easy home. I highlight touchwiz home and set it to always. I noticed it doesn't save the default settings. Is this an error?

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!
Does anyone know how to assign the default home-screen on touchwiz? Out the box it always had the dots for the screens but it always moved to the center screen when I pressed home.
When I restored the TW settings to another ROM it ended up with numbered dots instead of solid dots. And now whenever I pressed home while on the home-screen it always moves to the last page.
Is there any obvious setting anywhere it dictates which home-screen page is the main one?
Pinch on any home screen to see all. Menu... Set as Home. Tap the screen you want. Tap Done.

I must be not pressing the right combination of buttons. Can you explain it again?
I feel like a 5 year old
When you pinch a home screen (thumb and index finger swiped toward each other) , it should show all your homescreens. Then press the menu capacitive button. Only option is to Set as Home. Then just tap on the image of the homescreen you want as the main one.

Hmm, when I have all the pages showing I press menu but no options shows up. I vaguely remember this when I picked up the phone stock. I wonder if it has anything to do with the SAUROM.

If you having problems 'pinching' the home screen, you can also hit menu, edit to get to the same view, then hit menu to set home...

I am on Saurom too and I too am not able to set the homescreen. I know I was able to on the stock rom by tapping menu when there was a preview scree but it now no longer works.
Hi!
I don't like the feel of the Home button. Is there any option or app to add another option with the home button properties?
Thank you!

I would say use a different launcher that will let you assign to different buttons.
I don't use the home button that much because I back out of 99% of apps (old habit from G1 days) and since I use Nova Launcher, I assigned S-Voice to the menu long-press. The only time I use the home button is coming out of the browser and the odd time when I truly multi-task (usually copy/paste from one app to another).

Taskbar task switcher. Can add a line to Taskbar dropdown for "Return to desktop"
Yeah, this home button is ridiculously annoying.
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
