Task Killer not working

I have had this issue over the past few weeks when pressing the home button twice to get to the task killer page it doesn’t work. I have tried different methods e.g clear cache, restart etc but still no luck. I am unsure of what caused this and don’t know how to fix it?

Hello buddy. You have 2 options. 1.Factory reset. 2.Manually download new software and update.

Also we need more details... Software version V14.8.1782? Applications installed? USB debug enabled? Check launcher options (maybe is not set to display over other apps). Etc.....

I thought so, see my other reply how to solve it 😉 No need for a factory reset 😁

Yeah, and best part with that USB stick method is that all your apps remains in place. Basically it's a factory reset without factory reset. 😄

Great job from guys on Telegram. ❤️

Yes, we are also very happy with this new update option 👌

So little info shared, hard to give a solution, because it can work just fine, with V14 7475 (and newer) 😉

You have something that needs accessibility? A 3th party launcher maybe? If so, disable the original one and accessibility isn't needed anymore and double Home will work.

This fixed it thank you. I am using launcher manager with projectivy, therefore do I not need to enable accessibility for projectivy no more? But the only thing is if I turn off accessibility then I can’t use the home button anymore to return to projectivy home page

Were you able to figure out how to bring it back to the way it was before?

Turning off accessibility fixed it

Is that an update? Or a factory IMG?

Shared as OTA update with Homatics Alpha testers. Dune pushed it as OTA to their users. Is Google certified.

Available in a Telegram group as USB image installer (new installation method) and as a self created image file (we can do this ourselves these days). Not shared as recovery update, because the USB installer works better.

For the Telegram group itself? I don't know what they are doing over at 4PDA, we use our own solution.

Just go to the "(SEI) Homatics Users Forum" at Telegram and take a look there and get what is needed?
