You need to flash Exposed framework and get this
free xposed module app from the playstore.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spazedog.xposed.additionsgb
This remaps the home button or other buttons to whatever you like them to do.
Here is the link to the exposed framework:

Good luck,
Have a great day!
Thanks, i just wound up just clearing all the application defaults.

Not sure what the original home button maps to but with Nova Launcher I have changed mine.

Does anybody know a good app to assign actions to the hardware buttons (Touchbuttons on the bottom)? Of course only for the long press action. Otherwise I think I need the defaults I found out that when you keep the home key pressed, it shows a panel with the last opened apps, and the same with the Search button gives you Google Voice. I also have an App that toggles auto-rotate which runs on the long press of the Search button. However, must apps are not smart enough to distinguish between short and long press: They perform their action anyway, and if I keep the button pressed, I can also turn off auto rotate. But that's kinda annoying. The Homekey doesn't have this problem, so I'd like to move auto-rotate to this key. Is there an app that can do this? Or some other means of configuration?
Found LaunchKey in the meantime, but it only works for the Long-press search button. Would like long press home button... No ideas?! There is Button remapper, but it says it requires root.

So, and if I EVER, for some foolish reason, I decide to actually reboot my phone, you expect me to reconfigure everything?
Or just wait a few weeks for root...

I install an app on the playstore for remote control of kodi on my htpc computer , after uninstalling it , noticed when I long press and hold my home button It no longer opens up voice search, it opends google now cards page I then have to click on the mic button at the top to perform a voice search.
is there a way to reset this ? , I uninstalled updates on google app cleared data ect , now when I press and hold my home button I only get these 2 options.
if I select "google" it opends google now page (same way as above)
looking for a way tog et pack the long press home button and you can instantly start talking to the google voice .
im stock rooted
Just turn on 'okay google anywhere' and you can activate voice commands without touching anything.

Try download Tasker, secure settings or greenify. Open them, restart phone. Open agian. Go to home screen. Long press home button. Choose what you want. ?

also tried secure settings but I get less options then I did with greenify. some reason I just cant get voice search to appear when I long press home button.
Hi. I have the Chinese variant (AL00). In general I'm quite happy with it. One thing that I would like to change is the function of long press of the home navigation key. Currently, long press (with a swipe up) of the home key brings up HiVoice which as far as I can tell only works in Chinese. Is there a way to change the function of long press to start up another app without having root? I'm not interested in rooting at this point (at least until Xposed is up and running for Nougat). Also, I currently do not want to convert to international version as having Chinese version may have some, albeit small, advantages. Thanks!
Not sure if you have it on Chinese firmware but you can change it to google app,under application settings,click the settings and choose default app link.
Hi. thanks for the suggestion. I tried but it didn't work. Still get HiVoice. Hopefully it is not baked in...
One more note. OK google works fine in itself. Just don't want the current functionality given to long press home.
Have a look at Nova Launcher. I haven't tried what you want but it does have lots of options.

Thanks. I haven't used Nova Launcher for several years. Currently using Total Launcher. I'll take a look.
I tried Nova Launcher and it does allow me to reset my home button, but, I did not see an option to reset long press of the home button. Anybody know if and where there is such option on Nova?
Has anybody experienced this even while having the "Keep screen turned off" option toggled on?
The power button does like it should when it's pressed in my pocket (meaning it has a pop-up notification saying the screen will turn off in x seconds) but the Bixby button just turns the screen on and activates like the phone is unlocked.
I've restarted phone and cleared cache (from the hard button press with phone off) and it still persists. I'm hoping there's a toggle somewhere I haven't found to keep the screen locked as I don't really want to download an app to remap or disable the button, but if there's no way around it I suppose I'll just go ahead and do it.
From- A very annoyed customer who texted 5 people and opened the weather app about 30 times today while he was at work
I've had this same issue. I thought it was me. I take my device out of my pocket and Bixby is on. If you find the toggle, please post it.
I had this problem and inadvertent presses just holding the phone then got an update now the button does nothing !!!
Actually that's probably an improvement

i bought Package Disabler Pro on Playstore and turned off that useless button. Works and no Root needed.

Which app do you disable to turn off the button?

I did what he did as well just to solve my issue for the time being. The App is called Package Disabler Pro. It's $1.49 on the app store. I installed, scrolled down and selected 'Bixby' (com.samsung.android.bixby.agent) and selected 'disable' at the top.
It keeps the button from working when pressed. I'm still hopeful they find a solution to fix this, because I have absolutely no use for the button thanks to the Edge Panel and Nova Launcher being able to launch everything I want...

Everything that has the word Bixby..
You can use this app it's working great and can disable brix or remap key to open another app..
It's called bxActions and is free in play store without need of root!
With bxActions you can remap your Bixby button to any action or app you like!
Use the Bixby button launch you camera, open google, toggle recent apps or launch any app you like!
You can even remap the Bixby button to launch google assistant
Theres also an option to disable the Bixby button completely.
I downloaded that app and couldn't find any option to disable the button itself. Disabling Bixby or remapping the button didn't help...it seems to me to be the button, not the Bixby app that is causing the problem.

I used a different app to disable Bixby and although that worked, the button itself still turned the phone on and causes me to text or call people. It even bought something on Google Play one time.
I am going to try Package Disabler Pro on your recommendation and give it a try though.
Samsung better get a handle on this. The Bixby thing might turn out to be a great feature eventually, but they are causing people to hate it in the meantime.
so when i use 3 button navigation and i repeatedly press back or home button from an app it just shows for a split second a ghost image of the app i was in. a screen recording is attached as well.

Do you have any Magisk modules installed that could conflict with systemUI?
If not, have you installed any apps that require root access/adb commands to work properly? (eg. systemui tuner)

no nothing of that sort. i don't even have root on this and i dont have any apps that require adb commands. do you have the same issue on your end? try repeatedly tapping home/ back button on your pixel and let me know if you have the same issue.
I'm setup for no button/gestures atm with magisk & the aosp module which gives me mostly total control over gestures. If u ever want to try out root, now's the time...it's easier than ever! Just sayin'...cuz 3 button is prolly lot long for this world. Not only can u micro-manage the UI, you can squeeze approx. 20-30% more battery time outta android...usually. Switched to 3-button just to see...nothin' tho. Watched ur clip...strange indeed.

Luckily, no. I have tried to replicate the issue, doesn't happen my end.
I was having trouble with some apps previously that required adb to work. They would often make my quick settings glitch out, or sometimes have a similar effect when closing apps as what you currently experience.
Try to switch to gesture navigation, do a cold reboot, then switch back to 3 button?

What is it that you'd be looking for in a screen recording? I have no input lag when touching the home/back button, and there's no laggy animation for the app minimizing.

well i would just like you to send a screen recording of you REPEATEDLY pressing home button on different apps and third party apps. you may not have any input lag because you only press the home button once not repeatedly, so please.
