    Lost my "Home Button"

    Just got done with a Factory Data Reset, and a re-root, and restoring all my apps. Everything went painlessly, except one thing.

    I lost my "Home Button" function.

    I use Apex Launcher Pro, and had all settings and data from the app backed up before doing FDR. I have 5 screens total, and before when I would tap the Home Button it would show all my screens previews, and if I tapped it again it would return to my default home screen. Now my Home Button does nothing, however I do get the "Feedback" vibration when I tap it, but it's not doing anything, no matter what screen I am on.

    Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?
    So MattyP how do you get all the ladies??
    'MattyP' I just offer classes on upgrading their OS...
    Really?? That's it??
    'MattyP' yeah, the chicks love it when you give em an upgrade...

    Download MotoHomeFix. It's not "technically" a Blur phone (at least according to the app), but it does fix this problem as I've used it for the same purpose. There are other methods, but I can't recall them at the moment.

    You can try clearing data on your framework, not sure if that will work. Can't hurt to try.

    Under settings, apps, running, I think the official name is "google services framework". Then just clear data.
    Opps, look under all apps.
