Spare Parts tool lets you change the end key behavior so you can partially get the home key back. Currently no long press home key solution, short of hacking the rootfs yourself, or keeping your phone back update-wise.

Either way, you definitely need to search before hitting that new thread button.
Thanks for always putting up the good fight arrrghhh. The saddest part is the exact same post can be found just a few down from this one where I gave directions on how to do what he wants. Also, note that the change was made in the kernel, so they have to revert that change if they really don't like it.

For directions on building your own kernel without the change, see this thread: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/tp2-androi...me-button.html
