Does anyone know if it's possible to have the double press of the home button open another camera app other than the stock app?
Thanks.
Try this app. Worked for me on a previous device:

Here's the idea:
I'd like to remap the keys in my N7K as follows:
-Long press home button for search
-Press current menu button for multitasking (show open apps)
-Long press current menu button for menu option.
The others would operate the way they do currently.
Any kind person could help with this? Thank you in advance!
Nothing close to this has been done yet..
However something similar is possible with using the app called home2shortcut
U will havve to delete the voice apk from your system/app to get this working..
the options u will get are
assign homme long press
assign home press followed by menu and
assign home press followed by back...
So kind of getting 3 additional hardware buttons.

Thanks! I'm trying to avoid clicking the home button as much as possible. Thus trying to replace long press home button by the menu button.

Not sure how that relates to my question. Checked the app and it seems all it does is add notification toggles just like it's name implies. That's not what my question is about but thanks!
Hello, I can't find anywhere how to remap long press on Home button to open Google Now insted of Recent apps. I have successfully changed Menu button to act as Recent app and its much quicker, but for remaping long press Home button I cant find info.
Is there anyone who know this trick?
Thanks
install a new launcher like nova
Title says it all, i'm on stock. In the Buttons screen there are options to change long and double press of each hardware button, but not single press. I can change single press action of the home button with nova launcher, i'd like to change single press action of the left capacitive button so it acts as a regular menu button.
Try flar2's Button Mapper app.
All I want is long press on back-hardware key to kill the current app which we can usually find in developer settings. Is it a Nugent thing or stock OOS disable this feature?
I'm coming from a galaxy s3 running CM from about 4 years ago and even then it had simple things like this, i could hold back to kill and also use volume controls to skip track when screen is off, etc. Can't do any of that on this new phone, really frustrating. To remap back and recent apps button using that app you need to upgrade to the pro version
I am trying to create a profile where I can add an extra function to my home button when on the home screen. But I can't get Tasker to react to home button press. I have tried both AutoInput and TouchTask, but none of them give any reaction. As I am using a Huawei Mate 9 Pro, which has a fingerprint scanner as a home button (no physical press, just touch/finger print), I have also tried both Fingerprint Scanner Tools and Fingerprint Quick Actions. They both work, momentarily, but after a short while the stock functionality takes over.
Does anybody know of a way to get tasker to react to home button/fingerpress press, only when on home screen, given the above limitations?
EDIT:
Fingerprint Scanner Tools works as a plugin to tasker (some times), but NOT when on home screen.
So, what's up with the app you mentioned in your other thread? https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3603433
Didn't work as intended?

Nope. I got the intent stuff to work fine, but the custom home function work like crap...
You can't use Nova? I have it open my app drawer if I press home on my home screen

That's a very good suggestion, I did not think about that! :good:
Nova can directly run Tasker tasks as a shortcut. I used to set it up to run a task when I swipe up on an icon.
And I just tried it, you can connect this behaviour to the home button, too.
I want to launch the Google camera app when double pressing the power button. Is that possible?

I was thinking the same thing...
You can use the app 'bxactions' to configure what apps to open when you double click the bixby button. Close enough I guess.
