What I want
When users press the home button, the app will just "wake-up" or relaunch instead of the activity is closing down.
I am able to detech when home button is pressed and I ask the app to wakeup, but the app is still leaving when home button is pressed.

I want to pause my apps music when I click my home button. But I can't access my mobile home button onclick event. How can I access androids default home button event when my apps are runing?
onPause() gets called you press the home button. So you can pause your music there.
I am trying to develop an android app. So I would like to know how to make the app keep running when I press the back button or home button or lock the screen(just like a music player app).
Currently when I press the back button or home button or lock the screen , the app pauses the activity and resumes when I open the app again. I want the app to keep running in the background until I stop it manually from the app(just like a music player app).
I have an app that will display the logo first, then it will go to the home activity of the app. Just like some other apps, if the app(my app) is not completely closed, even the user re-open the app(my app), the logo should not be displayed again. I mean if the user presses home button of the phone or switches to other apps, the phone will stop the app(my app) and switch back to its home or open other apps, the app(my app) is not closed. So when the user clicks the app's(my app) icon to open the stopped app, the logo should not be displayed but the home activity of the app.
I guess this should be done by using two activities. Then after 4s, it will direct the user from the logo to the home activity of the app. However, if I press home button of the phone or switch to other apps then go back to my app, the logo will be shown again but not the home activity of the app. So how to deal with this problem, or the logo activity can be done in different way?
I have an android application, when user presses home or back key, android application will be minimized.
I want to open this application after pressing back or home key. (like long press in home key and selecting minimized app - I want application do this automatically).
What should I do? Please help me.
I guess what you need is Kiosk Mode.
it can disable Android features that can be used to leave your app. The following features are affected:
The back button
The home button
The recent apps button
The power button
The volume buttons
