About Holo Launcher and Home Button - Help. - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

How can I clear the default of the Home button, because I want to install the Holo launcher and he is not asking to set the standard, when I press the home button.
I had it installed and then uninstalled, and i set the home button with official launcher (default of sony), but now I want to reinstall the Holo Launcher, I install and open it, but when I click the Home button returns to normal launcher, he do not ask to set the Holo Launcher.
How can I get this right?
There is no how to clear pattern as the home button as it is not an application, thus is not available under Settings / Applications.
Sorry my english is not very well.
Thanks !

Maybe the Sony Launcher is already set as default launcher when pressing the homebutton?
go to settings > apps > All and go to Xperia Home scroll down and somewhere there you will see that option.

Zeam launcher, how to make it not default

I liked Zeam Launcher as it had a quick and easy way to get to apps. Now that I switched my applauncher from 1.2 back to 1.1 I can now get them through the B&N apps button and I want to make Softkeys my home launcher. Soft keys has better access to the books I am reading, as the now reading button works.
I go into Home launcer, and it shows Zeam as my default launcher. I choose Softkeys, it show up above as default, but for some reason it doesen't become the default launcher. Am I missing something? Any suggestions?
open soft keys, go to settings, go to virtual home button,tap normal press button, select "home" instead of zeam. exit and push the nook N button and will load the BN home.

It worked one time, then went back to Zeam. When I opened up settings again, Home is still checked.
Try Home Switcher

Do you have soft keys set as your default launcher?

[Q] Shortcut to power button

Hello,
I'm running Task's ROM and I would like to know if there is a way to create a shortcut to the menu that comes up instead of pressing the power button?
Not sure if Button Saviors "Power Button" brings up the menu, but you can give it a try.
Didn't work. The app appears to not work on the tablet.
Try using a replacement Launcher like ADW EX Launcher. I believe you can create short cuts for actions such as the power menu. If you need help with ADW Launcher there is a detailed thread in the apps and Themes section.
I dont see how to create a shortcut to the menu using ADW EX Launcher.
I use "Screen off fx"

Xperia Mini Pro - Home Button calls default home screen

I've got a Xperia Mini Pro and hate the SE "4 corners" home screens.
I downloaded and installed ADW which is fine, set this as the desktop the launcher calls (using the Home Switcher app, and everything works. Nearly.
If I press the hardware home button, the phone goes back to the SE home screens. This is more than really annoying. Opening the Home Switcher app shows the SE home now set as default.
Where is the setting which will let me call the the ADW home screens from the "home" button?
Thanks

Kind of a weird issue on Android, anyone know how to fix?

Hey guys!!! The issue is the following, I had installed APEX launcher for quite some time, and what happened is that once when I pressed the home button on Samsung Nexus (the most bottom button that brings the home screen) it asked me which program should perform that (the APEX or the default one) by mistake I pressed the default one and clicked to remember settings and never ask again, so.....as you might guess, when APEX is on and I whenever I click this ,,home button,, APEX switches off and I see the regular desktop....I don't know how to associated APEX with the home button again...I tired reinstalling APEX but it doesn't work....any ideas guys, I would be really really grateful!!!
THANK YOU!!!

Find the Default Browser >
Click It >
Scroll Down and find "Clear Defaults" >
Press Home and Choose which one you'd like!
