[Q] app screen help

running apex launcher on gummy aceidently deleted that button that takes you to that screen that has all your apps that you can drag to different screens and now cant ifgure out how to get it back. I am sure that it something simple that I am missing please help.

I am not sure because am on Jellybean since a month, but try this.
Long press the home screen, you'll get a menu for Shortcuts, select the shortcut (the one you want).

all long press does is bring up recent apps

Long press the screen, NOT THE HOME BUTTON.!!!!!

[Q] Home button

Is it just me or does the home button not allways take you back to the homescreen?
I have found that for some reason when coming out of an app etc and pressing home it takes me back to the app draw and not directly to my pre defined home screen. It basically does what the back screen should (if it were working half the time!)
I cant see any possible logic for it to do this...the home button should take you back to blink feed or the home screen you have set as your 'home screen'
Anyone else have this or think it strange or give me some logical reason why it does it
thanks

That's how sense 5 works.
It treats the App drawer as another home screen. Press home again, and you'll go back to the home screen.
It was a conscious decision by HTC to do it that way...
and yes, i also find it annoying.

[Q] How to disable the long press of home button,that triggers recent apps?

Hi guys,
I have a faulty home button that randomly triggers recent apps dialog (by long pressing of home button) even if iam not pressing the home button. Its not rom related i tried it. So I want to change the behaviour of phone when long pressing of home button to do nothing on this long press. This feature was possible in CM 10, where you can change the behaviour of hardware buttons. So i want to change the behavior of long press home button to do nothing. I have a rooted pnone of course and 2.3.6. Based rom by nkvi71 (see signature). Is it possible somehow? Thanks for your tips.
Btw i cant change it thru any launcher. For example if I change this in Holo launcher to do nothing on long press of home button, the Rom ignores this settings. And i cant use nova launcher because i have a gingerbread rom. Is there a fix for it?

Use cm7.
It gives you the feature to change it

Thanks for your tip i tried this rom based on CM7.2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2234221 but no luck. In CyanogenMod settings i click on input - 3rd choice) and then I click on 'long press of home button' and then I untick 'Show recent apps' but no luck they still appear on long press of home button even if it is disabled also on holo launcher. Do you know any specifuc cm7 rom that offers explicitly to do nothing on long press of home button? Or am I doing something wrong??

[Q] Tapping instead of pressing Home button

Coming from S2, I know it is long overdue lol, and got used to touch-style Home button, I would love to get back to home by just tapping instead of pressing Home button. Is it even possible?
Thanks.

There are two ways that it can be done.
Once we have a proper custom recovery like twrp you can use the softkey mod
which has the option of adding three softkeys menu/home/back buttons on the
bottom of your screen, they look exactly like real softkeys and are transparent.
The other way to do it would take a bit of getting used to is
the mod which can re-assign the back and menu keys to be
the home key or basically any anything else and can be
configured for long press, double tap or single tap.
Some of the high end launchers already have this feature of
re-assigning keys built-in like the "Next launcher 3D shell".
The Next launcher even has option to replace the home key
by simply swiping up or down to replicate the home button's
default/normal single tap.
With the Next Launcher, we do not even need root or custom recovery.
Good luck!

I've used Go launcher free version forever and got used to swipe down anywhere to bring down notification, I wonder if TouchWiz has this function? With the phone of this size, this function is a must.
And I miss AOSP dialer, swipe left or right to go to next tab. Touchwiz's dialer has the tabs on the top, makes it impossible to use it 1 hand.
