[Q] Help! Galaxy S loses home key binding after long press

Hi
I'm having a strange problem with my Galaxy S. The home button will "forget" which launcher it's been bound to after I do a long press. Here's the scenario :
1. I have ADW launcher as my default launcher, bound to the home key.
2. I press home key. It runs ADW Launcher. Perfect.
3. I long press home key. It brings up the list of recent apps. So far so good.
4. I press home key again. It now pops up a message asking me to choose ADW Launcher or the default TWLauncher. It has somehow forgetten ADWLauncher is my default.
5. I select ADW Launcher, and check the "Use by default" checkbox.
6. ADW Launcher becomes my default launcher for the home key, until I long press the home key again. Then it again forgets that ADWLauncher is my default launcher. Goto step 3 and repeat.
This is driving me nuts. It's very inconvenient since I long press the home key quite often. I'm going to try re-installing ADWLauncher, but I was wondering if anyone else has encountered this ? What would you suggest I do besides a hard reset ?
I'm on 2.2, stock rom, updated by Samsung officially ( not rooted ).

No one encountered this before ?

B&N Launcher shortcut

Hello, I have tried searching with no luck. I currently have Zeam installed and would like to somehow make a shortcut to the stock B&N launcher, so I can switch between the two quick. I know there is home switcher, but I don't want to have to access a separate program to switch home screens. I want to get to it from the zeam home screen. Thanks in advance.

I don't think you can do that unless you use home switcher.

If you have SoftKeys installed, you can set different homes for the hardware N button and the SoftKeys home button. I have mine set so that the SoftKeys home button takes me to the B&N stock home, and the hardware N button takes me to Zeam.

I also use softkeys. Currently I'm set up so that a single press of the N button brings up softkeys. A short press on the softkeys home key takes me to Zeam and a long press takes me to the B&N launcher. Also, a quick double tap of the N button will take me straight to Zeam.
Like one of the other posters said, I don't think that there's an elegant way to place a shortcut on the Zeam home screen. A more "hackish" solution would be to remove the default action for your N button press. That way when you press the N button, it will prompt you to choose either B&N or Zeam.

[Q]how to go to this screen

how To get to this screen mind to teach me pls thanks

you can either pinch to zoom out, or touch menu soft key and select edit

I think it also depends on what launcher you're using.
TouchWiz has that option if you press your settings button on your home screen and press Edit. TouchWiz 'edits' pages like that.
I know LauncherPro has that sort of screen by pressing the home button.

Home button problem...

Possible a really stupid question... But I have already searched all over Cyanogenmod 10.1 settings
and I can't find where to select what I want the home button to do.
Not really an Issue, But I want to use holo launcher and tap the home button so that holo launcher
redirects me to my home screen when I want... That's where the problem comes in, When I tap the
home button it returns me to Cyanogenmod 10.1 default launcher and I have to launch Holo launcher
again...
So... Where do I set the home button setting in Cyanogenmod 10.1 default launcher?

when you've installed the 2nd launcher, at the first click of the home button the phone probbably asked you whether to launch default launcher or the new one, and you clicked the old one and selected always... so now the default launcher launches everytime you press the home button...
to undo this, go to settings > apps > find the default launcher app (trebuchet?) > scroll down to "launch by default" > click on "clear defaults"...
now when you click your home button - it should ask you whether to launch default launcher or the new one (holo), select holo and tick "always"...

Thanks! That solved my problem, Now I can set holo as the default launcher
whith no problems!
