I have the Fire HD 10 11th generation running Fire OS 7.3.2.3. I used Fire Toolbox v28.2 to assign custom Launcher Action to the Home Button. The problem that I have is that upon restarting the system, the Home Button is missing and I cannot recover it. The back and recent buttons work just fine. Regardless of the launcher used (I tried Nova Launcher and the system default), the Home Button will not appear. I have searched this forum but did not find an effective way to recover the Home Button (There was the suggestion to use Device Setup App, but I cannot find a version of the app that will run on my device). I do not want to do a Factor Update as it would mean reinstalling all of my data. Any assistance is appreciated in getting the Home Button back. Thanks.
No sure if you solved the problem.
I had got the same problem with you, and got solved by using Fire Toolbox client Installer (.exe) instead of Portable (.zip).
My Home Button now shows in screen.

I have ManualNooter 4.4.28 installed and I can't figure out how to switch between apps. On my Mesmerize I hold down the home button and it will bring up a list of my last used apps.
I tried holding down the N button and tried double-tapping the N button but neither seem to work.
Help?
Sounds like you may have the soft keys virtual home setup kind of borked. Might want to try looking there.
My rooted nook touch boots up to the go launcher. When i press the home button it takes me to the nook home page and everything works like the stock nook. BUT the only way I can get back to the go launcher is to turn unit off and reboot. Any suggestions on how to fix this so I can switch launchers easily? I have home switcher app but cannot get to it without reboot.
Thanks
Did you use Touchnooter? Buttonsavior, which comes with it, provides a little Home icon that lets you use the Go Launcher or Nook Home.

Did you use Touchnooter? ButtonSavior comes with that, and provides a hard to see set of icons along the side of the screen that include a house (home). Pressing the house brings up a menu that lets you choose between Go and the Nook launcher.
Yes I did use touchnooter.thanks problem solved
I have Button Savior on MIUI rom on Kindle fire the only small issue is that the buttons shrink after some time or reboot any simple fixes?
Try Virtual Button instead. It's awesome. It allows you to set up to 8 different commands including recent app, back, volume up and down, show notification screen, search, and home. You can size both the buttons and the main trigger icon and move it around. Can even change the color.
I still have button savior on my Kindle, but stopped updating it because it seems to take root access away from Virtual Button, which makes no sense. VB does not take root accessed away from BS. So just install Virtual Button second and all works great.

Well there is nothing you can do about reboot you have to hit the tab to bring the buttons out, but there is a setting for auto hide you can set to never. That should keep the buttons out most of the time but some programs that take over the screen like games can make the buttons hide again.
Hi,
I root my NP but still can't find anything to assign app on home button? With fire starter app on non rooted fire stick I can set app to boot on and set two different apps on home button with single and double click. I am trying to find use of rooted NP if I want want to stick with original firmware.
Try target home launcher app. You need to sideload it, but it works perfectly

I installed Halauncher and sideload launcher before me post, but for some reason they didn't set on home button after few restarts (so I thought its not option). But later I get option to set launcher when I press home button. I am using Halauncher and its good so far. I will try home launcher later. Thanks
Every time I press the home button it tells me that action is not allowed and I should go to Parental Controls.
I got rid of Fire Launcher and have Lean Launcher in its place. Everything works fine except the home button.
How can I get the home button fixed?
