Has the long press shortcut disappeared for anyone on Google pay on the note 9? And has anyone found a way to get it back. Very much a first world problem but the shortcut was so much quicker
Thanks guys

I tried doing a search but I honestly don't know what to enter--tried button layout, android controls, etc--no dice.
On the Touch, it used to be that if you held the camera button down, it took you straight to home. That does not seem to be the case anymore. Can anyone tell me if the Touch has a way to do that now--and if not, how in the world are you getting out of the browser without losing all of your progress? Task Switcher doesn't seem to allow me to choose my home screen, and if I switch to something else and then exit out of that, my browser is waiting for me, like the sneaky bastard it is.

if you aare using an nbh that has the task switcher built into it, then you need to only hold the camera button for a second for home.
tap - back
hold for a sec - home
long hold - task switcher
Awesome! It's going to take some getting used to, but this is a huge help.
Now if I could only figure out how to install themes...

Hi guys,
I managed to install google apps on my phone, and I must say Google Now/Voice is fantastic!
I was wondering if we could set the home button to launch Google Voice, like how Apple launches Siri. I have the app 'Tasker' although I'm not afraid to admit that I don't know how to use it
thanks a bunch.

Yes, simply hold and swype up from the home button
Great! Thanks, I didn't know that
I created this app for my own use because i feel that i misclick the recent app button quite often while playing some landscape game like vainglory which is quite annoying.
This is a very simple application, it would be straight to use it, click on the disable button to disable the recent app button or click on the restore button to restore it.
Note** after click on either of the 2 button your phone will be reboot immediately, so please save your work before proceed.
Note** This app required root.
Installation guide
1) Download the apk and the rar file.
2) Unrar the rar file and extract the whole folder to the root of your internal memory.
3)Enjoy
Awesome app! It totally ruins the VainGlory game on my phone and tablet when it reloads. I wanna start playing on my Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 (SM-T320) but this doesn't work. Any way you could figure out how to get it to work on a 5.1.1 stock Google rom?
Thanks again
Hey Dude!
I'm making a game and was wondering if you could share how you implemented this.
It would be sweet to be able to amalgamate this function directly into the game,
Cheers!
I seriously need to disable the function of recently used apps. I can't even make a call or text while it keeps changing to the recently used app and it minimize and maximize few times. I don't need this app. This is a Samsung A310
Um you guys do realise that the game tools can disable back and recent keys?
Help
Hi, I do not know if this post is still active.
I'm having a problem, my galaxy s6 flat recently started to constantly activate the recent button.
I have tried everything to disable it, when I comment "#" on the 254 APP_SWITCH key line it deactivates all the buttons, including the power button.
I do not know if this is a sansung problem, but I'm desperate and I can not find a solution.
Is there any possibility to disable or put a new function on the button?
sorry my bad english, I'm using google translate to communicate
tks
When you hold the menu button it opens the google search. Is there a way to disable this? Or at least change the button delay time.
Settings/apps/advanced/default app settings/assistance and voice input/assist app
There you can change it. Probably the "deepest" setting on the phone :silly:
I set it to turn the screen off Btw, with an app called screen off and lock.

Oh my god thank you. Amazing. For some reason xda didn't email me your reply, but now I checked and your answer is beautiful.

Apologies for revisiting an old thread but this was the only place I found this solution.
Might be common knowledge for some but I wanted to highlight for other Huawei owners to try this.
In particular, this works also for a Huawei Y6 2017 !!
[NB: system is EMUI 4.1 on the MYA-L11 version of Huawei Y6-2017]
I recently bought my dad a Huawei Y6(2017) and installed easy-to-use apps for basic functions but the smallest delay in releasing the home button (maybe 1/4 sec or so!) was opening Google Search -- this was potentially going to drive hime crazy -- exactly the type of thing that would make him give up on his first smartphone!!
Being much more used to stock Android settings, I just couldn't find an option to stop or disable the long-press of the home button
tldr; As per the instructions, I set the buried option "Assist app" to "None". Job done.
Many, many thanks
Hello all, I am not sure if anyone has any thoughts about this, but I am curious about something. Does anyone have any thoughts about how to make a hardware button act as a shortcut not just to an app, but to an activity within an app? I am sure the support is there for it, because it works with Google Fit. I would love to be able to press a button to start an IFTTT activity. I do not mind sideloading apps, and am running the 8.0 developer preview.
Any thoughts?

If you install autowear then you might be able to get it to work as you can allocate buttons to certain autowear shortcuts that can possibly call the activity that you need.
