[Q] "Home" key takes me to Task Manager and not to - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Model:Galaxy Note:
My problem is that I press the "Home"key while making a call and it brings up the "Task Manager". I want to go to home (the little blue House icon), but it doesn't show. My friend has the same phone and has no problem to get to the "Home" menu while making a call. Please help.
Thanks
Carmen

are you just tapping it or holding it down for a few seconds?

Can function of Green Phone button be assigned to another?

Hi all,
i'm having intermitent issues with my Green Phone button not responding when pressed. As such, i would like to reassign this function to another hardware button such as the default PiE button.
However, i discover that the "Phone" function listed for assignment on the Buttons setting does not accept calls as the Green Phone button does when a call comes in! In fact, i can't accept calls by using any buttons & have to open my case to press the onscreen "answer". Any registry tweaks to rectify this?
Thanks!
Anyone with update?
Cheers,
You'll probably have to tweak the registry - I know may be possible - as I am using phoneplus III and the green button when clicked - starts up Phoneplus and not the internal Phone dialpad.
In the phoneplus setup - it says "Assign Phoneplus to Green/Send Button" and also "Assign Red Button to Close PhonePlus and End Calls"
So if anyone with experience on registry details - should be able to help you out.

AE Button Plus & the Red End Key

sorry if this is a stupid question.
I have installed HTC EndKey on the Kaiser and I like the idea of binding it to my Red End Call Key.
However, I realised that it cannot be binded to the long press end call key on the kaiser as it is coded to lock the device.
I have AE button plus 2.6and i have heard that I can bind things to double and triple click for that button.
I have setup it to launch the end key when pressed triple. It WORKS. But the problem is that I can no longer press the end key to end calls or go back to the main menu!!
How can this be fixed? Thanks alot!
Just have AEB assign the red's single press to end/close action. I use single double, and tripple on my Red button with "end" on single press and it works fine. I don't have HTC EndKey installed.
Thanks for the hint! I have been stupid.
FYI:
I have assigned single "red end key" to "press red key" and then double and triple press to some other programs. The long press red key cannot be assigned to anything else on the kaiser as it is coded to execute a "device lock" command.
Thanks!

[REQ] FDCSoft Start Menu

hello there!
this is my first post here, although I've been member since a while
I hope you can help me solve my problem:
I've installed FDCSoft Start Menu [http://www.dotfred.net/FdcStartMenu.htm] and it works very great, but it only pops up when I press the hardware Start Button... and when the on-screen Start Menu is pressed, it shows the default Start Menu...
is there any way to fix that so when I press Start on screen the New Star Menu pops up?
thanks in advance! =)
when I press the Windows flag in the upper left corner I get the FDCsoft Start menu, and when I pres the Start text next to it the normal menu.
Maybe try to hit the screen really in the upleft corner...
(I have WM6.1 on Kaiser)
I'm very late, but a little help !
You can download and install "hook start menu", do a search on this forum.

close applications with home button

does anyone know a possibility to have the home button on the td2 closing an active application. its kinda hard to press the upper right X with the fingers and would be nice to have it on that button... ohwell it should close the app and go to the homescreen actually any chance to get that working?
Settings / All Settings / Personal / Buttons and there you can change function of your button (initial value is "Today")
actually i only have 1 button to configure there.. and im not even sure which one is that... its called button 1... ??
this is the answer button long pressed.
i use that for soft reset program
In most applications the back key acts the same as pressing the 'X' on the top right corner.
Only in Opera, as far as I know & maybe YouTube, that thee back key will act as 'Back'.
sadly this is not true.. even if i configure the answer button to ok/close it does not work properly. for example.. i open calendar and use the back button or press answer button a long time it will not close it - its still visilbe in the tasklist in upper right corner of the screen.
or is there maybe an app which will shutdown all open tasks when phone goes to standby mode?

Change long press Home button

Currently holding the square screen button does a screenshot, rather redundant with Volume Down+Power. Any way to change it something else?
Never mind, it's the recent apps button/ alt tab button, whatever you want to call it. It's not the home button.
It can be changed in >Gestures>Screen Tools> Screenshot>recent apps key
