Since GB, our phone always had the delay when pressing the Home button to return to the homescreen. On GB and ICS to fix this, we had to do some hacking and modding to scripts.
But now on official JB, its even simpler to fix and doesn't require root.
1) Open up the 'Voice Command' app in your app drawer.
2) Hit the menu button, settings.
3) Untick the text box for 'Launch Voice Talk'.
4) Done! Enjoy your Home button without any lag!
Let me know how it goes and whether this has helped.
Cheers,
Oly.
The option was already unticked by default, but the lag was there. So I ticked and unticked it... The lag is gone! Really awesome, big thanks :thumbup:

Cool man!
thanks!
Edit: I have done what ccab said too.
Go to "apps running" and finalize the "voice" processes.
It will close by itself after some time, but a good advice. That's why I first thought it didn't work

There is a small lag that doesn't bother me, but I was just curious if it would improve. I didn't see a difference (at least not enough that I could notice it, anyway). But I made a note for myself about it in case I have a problem at some point in the future...
Wow it works! Thanks
Thanks for that, mine was unticked too, but ticking it and unticking it makes a great difference.
I using Superneat and don't have Voice Commander, what is name of app in /system/app?
Thank you very much, very useful!

This is driving me nuts! I know Samsung implemented it to check for the voice input, but is there any way to disable the voice input so pressing the home button gives us an instant action?
I doubt it's due to the voice input function. It's bugging me too:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15011538#post15011538
This isn't about the wake from lock screen. It's about the home button not responding instantly when the device is awake.
Every time I hit the home button while navigating/apps it always pauses for a sec before acting.
This is such an unnecessary speed bump on an otherwise speedy device.
I just removed voice input using Titanium Backup. I don't need it.

After a fresh restart the home button does have a delay but not intolerable. After using the phone for a few hours (more like a day) the home button reaction times gradually increase to a point of slowdown and irritation. A restart fixes it again.
Anyone else noticed this?

welcome to Deep Sleep mode (hibernate mode.)
I've been running launcher pro since yesterday and the home button hasn't slowed down as it usually would with Touchwiz.
So it seems as though touch Wiz is the culprit from my initial testing. Will use it for a couple days more and see how it goes

Install Criskelo's custom Rom. It is solved.
I've been experiencing this quite a lot
Surfing the net pressing home button and find the home screen reloads. So bit of a lag which is very annoying, until samsung sort this out with a software update there is a work around. Simply disable s-voice from.settings that's it. I haven't actually experienced screen reload since.
Let me know if this works for you or not.
Try this
Untick under s-voice settings the following:
Launch S Voice
Wake up command
Under application manager go to running select s-voice and stop all services.
Go to all and disable s-voice. This will remove the app from app draw list too, you can also disable chat on app too.
This should stop the app running in the background.
My mate has got this phone has has also experienced this problem a bit as well.
I was just wondering when you say 'disable s voice' do you just mean just disable s voice opening when double pressing the home button? Or is there a setting to actually turn it off?
Yer had same issue, disabled see voice, all good

I would also like to know this. I stopped s voice opening when I double tap home button. That fixed the home button lag, however, I'm still experiencing the ocassional reload of the home screens.

Another nice side effect is it makes the phone feel alot snappier because it removes the home button lag.
EDIT: should have refreshed the thread :/ mattyt_491 was faster.. I don't think there is a way to disable it completely (without rooting) I didn't have any reloads since I disabled the double click. Then again I restarted the phone and it usually takes half a day or so to start happening..

Guys don't get frustrated. As per thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1694508&page=3, just set the size of dalvik cache to 128MB and everything will be fine. My personal experience, just perform these two extra steps:
1. Use Nova Launcher or Apex, takes less memory
2. Use 2D rendering from developer options, It does not make it slow at all.
3. From developer option, limit background processes to 4. Trust me you will not notice it.
4. And yes, disable S voice after you are done with initial experiment. Its not useful for anything.
And my phone is working snappier as it was when I opened the box. I will update it after few day's use. Running smoothly for 2 days. Today is third.

Why don't I have this problem? I think it's be ause I usually check what's open and close things. You should go into deb settings and have 4 processes max to test if it really is your memory or you just need to reflash.

I'm having the same problem.
Is rooting the phone and making these adjustments the only solution to this issue?
Switching off S-voice did work temporarily, but the problem has returned.
I'm new to andorid having just switched over from the dark side of iOS. Is Samsung likely to fix this in a coming update?
I find it hard to believe they didn't spot this in pre-testing the phone.
Thanks
I don't have this problem too. Strange.

Flashing this will enable navigation bar, and disable capacitive touch buttons on Nexus S.
Make sure to set the Backlight Dimmer delay to 0 using the NSTools, so the capacitive touch buttons don't light up.
If you are using the navigation bar, I recommend setting the LCD density to 200 or 190. Edit it with Rom toolbox, or
navigate to /system/build.prop/ro.sf.lcd_density=200 edit it with text editor and reboot.
Always do a backup before flashing. It should work for any JB rom.
To disable navigation bar, reflash the rom, restore the backup or flash disable nav bars.
You are doing this at your own risk.
Its based on Brainmaster's tweaks for android, all thanks goes to him.
Added files, they set dpi to 190 or 200 or disable Nav bars.
Screenshots please.

You get these three buttons on bottom of your screen.
http://cdn3.digitaltrends.com/wp-co.../samsung-galaxy-nexus-review-home-buttons.jpg
Or you can just add
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
To your build.prop and reboot. It works with every ROM I think. To disable, just set it back to =1.

First time I went from 240 to 200, I wiped googleplay, everything else worked okay, as far as I remember.
If you get FC's wipe that app.

Oh OK. So the zip turns then off already. Question though, in the BLD settings, setting it to zero turns off BLD meaning the buttons are always lighted up. I set it to 1 to turn it off almost immediately.

Yes you are correct, I used NSTools, and set it to 0, I assumed its the same with CM settings, I will try to fix it. Thanks
EDIT: OK no go, CMsettings work like that, if its set to BLD 0 its always on, NSTools looks like overrides it.
great! this is working just great. really thanks! but i don't see any problem by leaving screen density to 240 though. been opened all apps installed on my ns

Hello everybody, first of all plz excuse my poor english (I just speak french)
I have made an official Android 4.4.2 update yesterday and I got some weird problems with the Home button (the only physical button) :
- When I double press on it I got S.Voice (everything's ok)
- When I make a long press I got the list of the apps in use (everything's too
BUT
When a make a simple press, nothing happens... except when the phone is locked.
So, I'm sure that's not a hardware problem.
Plz help me because it's very frustrating (I can't go Home window without making a multi-press on Back button.)

Dont know the cause of your problem but you could possibly work around it by reassigning the correct action to the home key by using an app.
For example a launcher like nova, xposed modules like xposed additons or gravity box.

Thx for your response, but the problem is solved, after a full wipe with recovery and root
Yes i can confirm something it weird with the homebutton, once in a while the homebutton does not go to defaut screen when you press it. I thought it had todo something with customisations like xposed framework stuff like gravity box. after a reboot its gone so i'm not really bothered with it.

What do you mean the hardware button will be safer?? With 2gb ram what s the point to check open apps? It should be used the opposite way...long press to get to task manager, normal touch to get to menu...I ll wait for the other member to show up with the solution hopefully

Well, actually there is a solution since you are rooted: install Xposed framework, then install/check Gravity Box module within the framework menu. Go into the Gravity Box and assign the buttons to your liking, restart the device and voila!

For the rest here just a hint...it needs a reboot after framework installation and after Gravity box installation...

You are very welcome, but you could activate the menu function just holding the recent apps button for 0.3 secs without using any additional apps. Anyways, glad i could help
