When I use other launchers than touchwiz, the menu button won't vibrate when pressed. It works, but unlike the other buttons it doesn't vibrate. When I use Go Launcher, Adw, Miui launcher, and others this happens.

on the Droid you just hold the home button.
on the captivate doing that just brings up my Launcher Pro screen. ( choose between launcher pro or twSamsung )
I know I could just make LP default but I don't want to yet.....
I just cleared my default launcher app (so it brings up the dialogue on which launcher to use when you press home), held down the home button and it still brought up the recent apps screen.
Same here launcher pulls most recent when holding home button. "thanks i didnt know about holding the button "
There's a setting in LauncherPro to set the home screen behavior on long press, double press, etc.
TouchWiz also has this as well. I discovered it from a previos thread, just hold it for an extra second or two and it gives you the last 6 apps you opened.
so i have noticed.. say im in handcent, when i press the home to go back to the main screen... it brings up the tasker, and the the buttons become non responsive, and the menu button light goes out. to fix it , i press power, to sleep it, then again to unlock it and its fine.. and it is re-createable everytime.
I dont much like physical Home button so I am thinking how to make possible long-press Menu button to act as pressing Home button?
It can be done in Nova launcher but it is ok just in launcher but not in other applications.

Well if U r rooted..
Install Xposed Installer and install the module Xbutton Actions.. U can customize the hardware keys as you like..
Check out this thread..

The best and easier way to do is using xbuttonactions (xposed module). It can change long press action, double tap action of home menu and back button. Very flexible.
apk is attached
My home button only brings Google Now on the stock launcher or regardless of what I try on Nova launcher.
This forum sucks ass
Just found out how. Press and hold home soft key (little round icon center bottom)
Is there any way to turn off the screen (lock the device) without the need to press the right power button?
for example, with OPO you could long press the home button and the device got locked.
thanks!
you can use Custom Navigation bar and add a power button to either side of the nav bar

If you run Nova launcher, you can go to Nova settings, gesture & input and select screen lock for your desired gesture.
actually i just downloaded this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.simi.screenlock
and its working
If you use the edge panel, use softkey edge. It has a screen lock button.

i think theres a lock option in the assistant menu,furthermore you can use the bxactions app with nova launcher and remap actions to lock the screen.
