Hello,
I have tried to install several launchers (Nova, Google) on my Fire HD8 (2016), but no matter if I use the Amazon stock launcher, or any other, I sometimes have the strange behaviour that when I press the home-Button (circle), I am actually taken to the task view (which normally appears when you press the rectangle button). This is not reproducable, but happens from time to time. Does anybody have a clue why?
Does it only occur when you are on your launcher's default home screen? What you are describing sounds like a default feature in Nova.

Hi All
I understand that tapping my home button is meant to bring up a preview of all my home screens, but I tap repeatedly and nothing happens (the phone vibrates tho).
Is there some way to enable this?

You understand incorrectly. If you are looking for that feature you will need a third-party launcher.

If you're running the stock TW launcher then that feature isn't available. You need a 3rd party launcher like Launcher Pro for that feature.
Since 2 days now i have a big issue with my home button. usually when i was pressing it. it was going to my home screen. Now, i get a new page that only show me the clock, meteo and a few apps that are useless on the bottom of the screen. I never asked my phone to change it and i can't find the settings to revert it back to normal. Anyone knows how to fix it ? i dont want to re-install the hole thing.
Thanks !
What launcher do you use? Stock firmware? Rom?
Must be another Launcher installed...
TWLauncher will bring you to Homescreen 1
screenshot would help? are you on a custom rom or launcher?
Just to debunk the obvious: With TW launcher your home screen is the first one, the one to the far left. However, when you exit an app with the Home button, it simply takes you to the last screen you were on. So if you set i.e. the middle screen as your "home" and kept using it thinking it was your actual home screen, you may have thought that the Home button was taking you back to your "home screen," and now you may have noticed that pressing the Home button while you're not in an app takes you to the one to the far left instead.
I don't think you're an idiot, but just for the record.
I just had the same thing happne to me as well. It was alsco discussed in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116748&highlight=home
After turning the phone off and on its back to normal. No idea how it happned
Delete/Ignore - It was Home2 Shortcut. I always have it set from the start, and didn't even think of it.
I'm on US Cellular, but heard our phones are very similar. I have this annoying problem when I press the Home button. It appears to happen with both the hw button and an app, like Ultimate Dynamic Navbar. I press it to go to my default screen (Nova launcher, not in foreground), and the Recent Apps pops up for a split second before going to the home screen. Not sure when it exactly started, but happened on both Vanir and CyanFox ROMs. I'm on KT kernel and tested with default settings and the Hydra profile. Thanks for your help.
Edit: When on a different screen on the launcher, it'll show the Recent Apps, then remain on that screen.
Edit: Before I have any recent apps, it'll just flash a black screen for the same amount of time. Something's causing a delay. In Accessibility, I changed the Touch & hold delay from Short, Medium, Long with no change.
Here's a video of it: https://www.copy.com/s/icgfFx0BnwUt/SCR_20140104_044403.mp4.
Hi,
Got a little problem which quite annoys me.
Opening 'Recent Apps' with the physical button takes too long. If I use for example the nova homescreen shortcut it opens instant, but if I open it at the same moment with the physical button it takes about half a second to show.
I prevents me from having the nice multitask experience which the hardware is definitely capable of. Is there someone who got a fix? I already tried disabling all animations.
Hello
I need some suggestions to what might be causing the Home Button delay that I experience.
I got a D802 running Pardus HD Classic 7.7 and dorimanx 7.8. I use Nova Launcher. Every time I press the Home button to return to the Launcher, I experience a delay/lag. I thought Xposed caused it, so I disabled it, but it wasn't that.
I tried forcing Nova Launcher into RAM (aggressive desktop) without luck.
Please note that the delay also occurs if you're in the app drawer and press the home button. If you press the back button, it reacts quickly as it's supposed to do.

EDIT: Stock LG launcher is also laggy
There used to be patch on Nexus 4 which would remove home button delay. You may want to search that forum under themes and apps.
Does this rom have voice mate?
This caused me an issue like this. After I deleted the app, it became much faster
