Any way to change "double tap home" to do google voice search?

[durantula35]

It currently is S-voice. I tried it for 2 minutes and I've concluded it's no good. Any way I can set this double tap home key to google voice or create some other shortcut to google voice?

You can use a home replacement app like Apex Launcher or Nova Launcher. They have many more settings than stock touchwiz.

Yeah on Nova, I like to set "double tap" to Google Voice Search - so if I double tap anywhere on the home screen, it opens it up. Even easier than the button honestly, but doesn't work unless you're on the home screen.

Yes I think Apex does the same thing

Dled apex. Though you can change double tap, I don't see how you can change the shortcut for double tapping the home button, which is what I am looking for. I assume the same would apply to nova though I haven't tried it.

Yah, those are for double tapping the screen, not the home button.

I don't think there is a way to change the double click of the home button.
Either it is S-voice or nothing.

With Apex you can change the home button to do almost any function. But then that would defeat the whole purpose of having a "home" button. But at least the option is there.

tap'n

Nice, Ive been using Atom Launcher (which is really nice, fast).
But just changed to Apex last night.....I like both, but will give Apex a chance for a few days.

I installed Google Now and double tap switch to Google voice dialer.. and it SUCKS (its weird its not actual Google now that lunches... just says voice dialer..) Ive tried it over 50 times and it hasn't called 1 right person!! if you launch s-voice or Google now from icons and it works instantly with the name of the person I'm trying to call.

is there any way to revert it back to even S-voice without installing a 3rd party launcher??

change something in permissions or something?

Another very good way to change home button (2x) and to set home-menu and home-back button combinations:
