I donno if anyone had faced this problem or not. When I run clear cache with Titanium back up pro, my task bar gets hidden, and I can see the program as full screen. As don't have a home button or a back button, the only way to end the program is to restart, which fixes the problem. Amy input will be helpful.

What is tudo?
So you're saying you want the home button to open the app drawer instead of taking you to the first home page in launcher pro ?
No, i want it to allow me to select the home i want to use, either launcher pro, or panda home, or normal home, instead of going back to first screen, this appened after i uninstalled ahome i think.

Settings > Applications > {find your current default home} - there should be a button saying clear defaults. It will then prompt you next time you hit home.
Why would you want that though, unless if you are using multple launchers at the same time, which is a little odd.
I seem to be only able to have 1 app open at a time?
I have to backbutton the app, then go to main screen to start another app..
How do i have 3-4 apps running, with the minimized apps that i can grab up top like my phone...
thanks
I'm not exactly sure what you are requesting here, but applications can run in the background. While you may need to go the Home screen to get back into an application you were previously in, it can still be running from before.
You mention of minimizing applications, which doesn't happen with the android system in terms of windows (min/max), but some applications open can be accessed throught he notification bar, if they have a ongoing notification.
Maybe you're talking of pressing and holding the N button to bring up the 8 most recent applications to easily switch between them?
If that is the case, there is also a nice application called Swipepad that may help you as well.
My android phone, with the slide down window at top is what i was referring to, where you can "pull" down the top of window,, and see your running apps...
thanks

What phone is that? It must be a customization of some sort since Android doesn't normally work that way. Like biohazrd51 said, just hold down the physical "n" button for short second and a "running" app list will pop up no matter what program you're in and even if the status bar you're talking about is hidden

Back button = Exit. Just push the N button to go Home.. And as said, sounds like your phone is some tweak to Android, until Honeycomb there was no method provided by the OS itself to show "running apps" besides in the Settings->Applications view.
Sounds like something from HTC Sense. What phone/ROM you have?

Just long press the N button you should get recent apps

Hi, I recently installed AOKP build 31 (did a full wipe before install). When I tried to add apps to home screen, the screen auto rotates when long pressing the apps. It is quite annoying because I am not able to select any app. It also happened when I tried to add widget to home screen. Anyone had the same problem?
OK, problem solved after a reboot
Screen auto rotates
Just installed build 31 after a full wipe as well last night. The screen may have moved slightly on the 1st icon I attempted to place on the home page, but it didn't appear difficult to resolve. I simply selected the icon again and moved it to the page/screen I originally intended to place it on.
My home screen didn't rotate at all when I attempted to place a second icon/widget on the page. Unless I'm missing the scope of your question, you may have to simply try with additional apps until you master the timing of it all.

Had the same problem here and reboot fixed as well.

Same here, but a reboot fixes it. It's a problem with the launcher, not the rom. Switch to nova launcher to fix it.
To close my recent apps I have a widget of"android assistant" which closes all the apps at one touch.
And to view the open apps through the default task manager in CM9 I have to press and hold the home button for a few seconds. I was wondering is there any way to access this task manager through a one tap on the scren .considering the times I have to press the home button.. it might get spoilt or loose over time.
Have you guys got any tips to do this?? I also tried "simple text " app but there is no action as to access the task manager.
I did take a look at "tasker" and it had a way to kill all apps or selective apps. I think that could be helpful in a way ..

Don't know of anyway to do that, it's very possible though to make such a shortcut in my opinion.
However the button is of high quality and you don't have to worry about it.
Or you could always flash the on screen keys mod and use that instead.
Cheers.

I think that the on screen keys are a bit waste of space. I have used some iphones in my past, and the main button often got loose (shakey)

Install Nova Launcher from market and Configure the home button in Settings.
Now Just press home button one time and its done
Or apex launcher, you can reconfigure the home button for a 1 press & the task mngr should show in now time, or put an action icon on home screen.

I would prefer using the action shortcut.Will i be able to do that with Apex launcher.
Thanks for the launcher ideas, if i can't get a shortcut made, ill reconfigure the home button to open the task manager on one tap, but then won't it conflict with the actual 1tap idea of the home button? :S to get to the homescreen?

I looked at a lot of threads already and can't seem to find a solution. Looks like someone messed up the settings on my touchpad and I can't get the three soft keys and taskbar on the bottom to appear . The button on the top right to go to the app menu is gone also.
There is no way to get onto the setting menu unless I restart the touchpad and use the "low battery" button to get to Battery on settings. Is there anyway to get onto the setting menu with no soft key / app menu ? If I can just access the setting without restarting every time can I can try to fix the problems.
Did you go to system, buttons and layout

Not really sure what you mean by you can only get into settings with the low battery button. But there is an app in your app drawer called settings that takes you to the settings. Also, you could have expanded desktop on so long press the power button and see if you have the option there. If not go into settings and then "system" and look at your expanded desktop options.

Hold down a finger on the home screen, then go into Launcher Settings, see if you can enable the Dock. May have been disabled by mistake.
If that is not available, go into Apps and then access Settings from there.
