Android - How to catch that the Home button was pressed?
Is there a way to stop going to the main screen when the HOME key is pressed?
Basically, I want to restrict the user to go out to the home screen when using my app, so I should restrict the HOME and BACK keys.
Implement your own home screen. If the user elects to make your app be their home screen, you get control when the user presses HOME. You can see an example home screen application in the SDK samples, available for download from the SDK Manager.
Here's a solution:

I am making an application and I want to make app in such a way that user directly open that by using volume key, suppose user click twice the volume+ or volume- buttom and the app will directly open without home screen or without any interuption.
I want to add this functionality using the code in Android Studio. If anyone know how to add this, please help...
What you are asking for is not App/Code nor Android Studio related but device related, If the Original Equipment Manufacturer will allow a device to have a shortcut button it could be possible to achieve that on those devices.

You cannot disable the home key. It is user's choice is they want to leave your application.

here i want to launch Android Home Screen
Can anybody tell me where to find information about how to write a custom home-screen application? and i want to remove android default home screen. and add my custom home screen code to source of android.
So very first i have to make application which launch as a home screen so any body can give me some tips or guidelines?
Thanks
create a home application , which is nothing but an application with home intent . Samples (../android-sdk-linux/samples/android-8) have a good example named "Home" .
once app install when user will click on homeScreen he will be prompted for select home among existing home apps (including your app too) , once user set it as default this will not be asked again .

Android: Get Installed Shortcuts
Is there a way to get the list of shortcuts the user has on his home screen?
From my Android app..
I doubt it - the home launcher does not have to be part of the Android system, it could even be a custom app that doesn't use shortcuts at all.
However, you could create a custom home screen launcher specifically designed to broadcast what shortcuts are contained, and it is possible one exists out there already. But this would obviously require everyone using your app to have this custom home screen.
