Galaxy S5 :: Home Button On Samsung Phone Often Goes To Google Instead Of Home Screen

Dec 17, 2014

It does it intermittently, and I suspect it's because the whole phone is lagging - too many little background things running I suppose.

Assuming it's the lag problem (making a single press lag so long it seems like a long press), what are some strategies for clearing out less necessary tasks the phone is doing?

Motorola Droid Turbo :: Home Page Google Search Microphone Button Is Not Working

Dec 7, 2015

I have a Droid Turbo. Sometime today the little microphone button on my home page has stopped working when pressed. It only happens on my homepages on the phone, so if I tap on Google and bring up the browser page or then I can tap on the microphone and talk.

If I'm on the Home Screen; however, I can press it again and again and it is totally unresponsive. I have tried:

-turning the phone off and on again,
- going onto home-screen settings and turning google search on and off
- downloaded a anti-virus program suggested by a friend with the same phone and done searches.

This may seem like a rather small issue, but I use that microphone button a lot when using my phone.

Galaxy S6 :: How To Disable Home Button

Jul 1, 2015

You will need a root explorer and All in One Gestures app.

Look in device/system/usr/keylayout for generic.kl

Make a backup of this file before editing.

Open it in a text editor and look for lines "Key 158 BACK" and "Key 172 HOME"

Swap BACK and HOME then save and reboot.

Then open All in One Gestures and under hardware keys tab, swap function of home and back again.

Somewhere along the line the wake function is dropped. Everything else works as normal.

Apr 26, 2014

I like that the home button quickly turns the S5's screen on to the lock screen to check the time or for notifications, but unfortunately hitting the home button again doesn't turn the screen back off and I have to reach for the power button. Is there a way to change that?

Galaxy S5 :: Can Disable Long-press On Home Button?

Nov 16, 2014

On the Galaxy S5, whenever you long-press the Home button, it brings up what appears to be a Google search page or something. Apparently I’m really bad at pressing buttons quickly (either that or the button is malfunctioning) because I keep accidentally bringing up this damn Google search page instead of the home screen.

Is there any possible way to disable the long-press or even just change what it does??? I’ve searched through the phone’s settings and all over the internet and haven’t found anything useful yet.

Galaxy S5 :: After Lollipop - Recent Apps And Home Button Sometimes Don't Work

Mar 1, 2015

I'm an unhappy victim of the great Lollipop Update. Now without warning the Recent Apps button and the Home button just stop responding periodically. Like I'll be in a phone call and want to take a picture or look something up and pressing Home or Recent Apps does nothing. If I restart the phone then they work as expected even when in a call. Eventually though, they just stop working.

I've been reading about others having bad luck with Lollipop. So I thought I'd just go back to 4.4.4 because everything worked then. So far, I've downloaded Kies3 and done a complete backup. I decided to try a factory reset to see if that would make Lollipop behave. Nope. Within 20 minutes the buttons stopped again. It's not always in calls, it's just that I can't restart the phone when in a call to make it work and that is not usable.

So, before I go regrade back to 4.4.4 - why the buttons just quit every so often and maybe how to fix it?

IPhone 5s :: Home Button Stopped Working Then Phone Crashed

Sep 9, 2014

Was using my phone today and then after about 15 mins I went to use it again and the home button would not work. Had to turn off then turned back on and nothing was different. Did this a few times as I spend a lot of time on my phone and once I was in an app then I could not get back out so I had to keep turning on and off. After a few hours of this the phone crashed and made me reset on iTunes. Did this and it still doesn't work. Phone is a a couple months old as I used my insurance after the last one went swimming.

Info:
iPhone 5s, iOS 7.1.2

Galaxy S6 :: 10 Second Delay To Do Google Search On Home Page

Jun 2, 2015

When I press microphone to do google search on home page--sometimes 10 second delay.

On S6 I notice whether at home with wifi or out with only cell data, that when I press the mic icon to do a google voice search I will see a white screen for up to 10+ seconds until the word "Listening" pops up.

It is as if it cannot connect to the service to perform the voice search immediately. Once it does connect, I can perform a web voice search with absolutely no delay...

Under running apps, Google App is of course running. I did disable these apps but not sure any would make a difference-except perhaps Cloud???

Note: I am not syncing Gmail or using a Google Email account for contacts, email, etc..

Google Nexus 5 :: Can't Connect Phone To Home WiFi?

Jan 18, 2014

First and foremost I'm a new Android user coming from the iPhone and I absolutely love everything about it. My one problem isn't Android; however, it's been this N5 wifi connection issue. I cannot connect to my home wifi whatsoever.

I do have unlimited data with my plan but still, the use of WiFi is obviously important. Has Google stated they are working on a fix for this?

I'm at the point of possibly returning my N5 for a different phone as much as I love everything else with this phone.

Google Nexus 5 :: Disabled Power Button But It Reboots Phone

Dec 15, 2015

I have a Nexus 5 with Android 4.4.4 and CyanogenMod 11. Like always, it had been working really find untill today, when it started to reboot and entered in a loop. I found out that it was because the power button was broken and with the lightest touch, it would activate. Searching through the Internet I found out that many people happen to have this problem. I tried to disable the power button editing a file that is found under /system/usr/keylayout/qpnp_pon.kl, where I had to simply comment the line where the power button was.

Now, if I click the power button it doesn't happen anything, like I was expecting, but after 30 seconds of clicking it, it shuts down and it reboots like if it was an internal error or someting similar that caused that reboot.Is it possible that disabling it the way I did could cause any type of problem that made it reboot after touching it?

I know it's an internal problem or something like this because when I touch it, it doesn't lock the screen or show the power menu, so the button itself is kind of "disabled", but it keeps causing this problem.
