I have also installed LauncherPro Plus, Does anyone else have thisz problem? If so, has anyone found a solution to fix it? Hitting back in contacts does not go back to home screen, it sticks in the contacts until I use the home button to go back.
and sometimes instead of going back it activates the "screenshot" mode instead right? i find that soo effing annoying!
Try long-pressing the Contacts icon on the LP dock and changing it to the Contacts application.

Somehow, after i upgraded my phone, whenever i press the contacts button, instead of going to contacts, it changes my view from portrait to landscape.
how do i fix that?
start --> settings --> buttons.....
thanks. so thats why i cant fix my prob. i went to start - settings - system - contacts button. i always go there. didnt notice the button setting.
I installed Magic Button, as it seems to be quite highly thought of in these parts, and have discovered a problem. I am curious as to whether anyone else has had the same, and found a fix.
I use the standard phone tool that came with the o2 XDA. When MB was installed, pressing the OK button in the top right of the phone dialler screen would just bring up the speed dials, not close the phone. Pressing the X in the top right of the speed dials list brings the dialler back. So I go in circles...
Uninstalling MB and a soft reset seems to have sorted it, but I did like having MB on there. Any ideas?

Basically, you just want the phone icon at the top bar to disappear when you close the phone, right?
Solution is tap and hold the phone icon, a menu will appear, select hide the icon.
Ok...
On my last WM phone, the Motorola Q9c I was able to use the back button to go back to what every program I was using previously.
So, for example if I was in Opera and hit the Home button to go WM home screen, I could then press the back button and go right back to opera.
That's not the case on the Snap for me... anyone know of a hack/setting or something that will allow this?
It works for me... if i press the back button it goes the the screen/program i previously had opened

Seriously? The back button is the one under the right soft key right?
So, if you are in say GoogleMaps and your phone either goes idle to the home screen and you hit that back button it takes you back to google maps?
Yes, just tested your google maps example seeing i never use that, but when i use the back button (the one left of the power/call end button) it goes from the home screen back to google maps.
Maybe it's a setting somewhere?
it works for me as well, seems like ur the only one here with that issue.
sorry man..only thing i can think of is possibly trying to uninstall and re-install ur new apps and see what that does..maybe even hardreset!
how do u hard-reset the Snap?
I can't get this to happen either. The home screen stays put.
to hardreset :
start > system tools > clear storage
at that point u should be prompted to enter "1234" to set the device back to its factory settings, basically out of box.
Even after a hard reset i am still having this problem.
It's really annoying... anyone have any idea/setting/regsitry hack?
Hi everyone! As the title says, for some strange reason this morning my 'Home' button won't work from any application, the button however does make the screen light up and the buttons light up, but does not take you back to the home screen... also, when at the home screen, the dial button would usually bring the contacts or the dialer page up, but this is not working either, however, if I go into the contacts shortcut on the home screen and select a contact and press the dial button there, it will call them...
so basically, my main issue is the Home button not working!
Its not rooted *yet* and is therefore running a standard rom, it does have a fair few apps installed tho, but I have used the advanced task manager to close everything... I'm v' new to all this Android stuff as up until a few months ago, I was a Windows Mobile person with my previous SPV's and HTC's so any help would be greatly appriciated!
Thanks, Adam.
Since 2 days now i have a big issue with my home button. usually when i was pressing it. it was going to my home screen. Now, i get a new page that only show me the clock, meteo and a few apps that are useless on the bottom of the screen. I never asked my phone to change it and i can't find the settings to revert it back to normal. Anyone knows how to fix it ? i dont want to re-install the hole thing.
Thanks !
What launcher do you use? Stock firmware? Rom?
Must be another Launcher installed...
TWLauncher will bring you to Homescreen 1
screenshot would help? are you on a custom rom or launcher?
Just to debunk the obvious: With TW launcher your home screen is the first one, the one to the far left. However, when you exit an app with the Home button, it simply takes you to the last screen you were on. So if you set i.e. the middle screen as your "home" and kept using it thinking it was your actual home screen, you may have thought that the Home button was taking you back to your "home screen," and now you may have noticed that pressing the Home button while you're not in an app takes you to the one to the far left instead.
I don't think you're an idiot, but just for the record.
