I'm trying to get either recents,or home, or back long pressed assigned to open menu and nothing happens. Anyone know why? How do you open menu options in some applications?
Nevermind, it started working today sort of.

My top left button (email) is normally assigned as the start menu button. After installing a new screen protector, whenever I pressed the button, it would open the start menu but start another program. I don't have any programs that open allow buttons to do multiple things, so I'm puzzled as to how this could've occurred or if it's related to the installation of a screen protector at all.
Any clues guys?
What does it claim to be assigned to? Go to Start>Settings>Buttons and check what it says there for Button1. Also, how did you assign it to the start menu?
Hi,
Running CM 4.2.11.1
Noticed that my application quick launch keys are no longer working (Search-B, etc.) When I hit the SEARCH-B button, the G1 responds as if I just hit search and I get the quick search box. This happens for ALL my assigned quick launch keys.
Anyone seen this? Ideas?
hold down search and then hit the desegnated button?
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.
This happens quite infrequently, but when it does it's a real pain. Once in a while I cannot access the main menu when hitting the menu button. The really odd part is that this only happens when I'm on the homescreen. If I can't access the menu, but go into an app, I can access the settings menu or whatever pops up for that particular app when hitting the menu button. Sometimes if I directly open the settings menu through the app drawer I can kickstart the menu button by then using the volume up/down buttons, but not always. In that case my only recourse is to reboot the phone.
I'm on a rooted Canadian Rogers Galaxy S4 running BeanStalk-4.3.1015-20131028-jfltecan ROM and ktoonsez 3.4.68 4.3-AOSP-TMO-11.04.2013 kernel. Although I've had this issue pop up with other ROMs and kernels.
Funnily enough when I went to check the ROM and kernel info, the menu button wasn't working...

OK, so I have finally managed to narrow it down. The culprit is DashClock. If I use the default lockscreen the phone is fine. Enable DashClock and as soon as I unlock the menu button is dead when on the homescreen. Not really sure where to go from here with this. It doesn't seem like I'm running anything weird here so why this is such an isolated case is rather baffling.

I think maybe you're long pressing the home button? Just tap home, see if that helps..
Na I was tapping once, one tap or long press was bringing it up, but I found a solution, had to uninstall the updates for the Google app and the reupdate it
