Hi guys, I accidentally set the home button to do nothing when I long press it. I can't figure out how to set it back to Google Now as there is nothing under the. Application defaults. Any ideas? Thanks.

OK I thought you had custom Rom installed.
Try long pressing blank spot on home screen see if there's any settings in there.

Nothing there. :/ I was considering reflashing the stock ROM anyway. I guess now is a good time.

Never mind I don't want to do that. Haha. I'll keep looking for a solution.

Wanam Xposed was unable to fix the issue also.

I'm not sure which I'm more frustrated with; The fact that I accidentally removed the key assignment or that the ability to do so is even allowed in the stock rom without a way to change it back.

Do you happen to have greenify installed? That was the only time i have had that option come up as a default. Furthermore, when i monitor the default applications list, setting the action to nothing makes greenify come up. If this is the case then go ahead and click the clear button next to greenify in the default applications listing, should work, next time you longpress you should be able to set it to google now, you can also go in the menu of greenify and press "Reset pull-up gesture".

I did indeed. Greenify was the culprit. Still had to relfash the stock rom to get the action back though. Oh well.

Shouldnt have had to do that, i switched between the two myself in testing trying to figure it out no problem, glad you got it figured out though.

Unfortunately I had already flashed the rom when you replied, but I will remember what you said so it doesn't happen again. Lol. Thanks.
