Previously i was running stock froyo rooted.
Ive flashed the stock gingerbread (odexed) from here and all went well.
ive noticed now that when i open an app from app drawer, when i click "back" to exit out of the app, the app drawer is still open. Before i flashed the stock gingerbread rom, the behavior was, click "back" to exit out of app and i would return to home screen (because app drawer was automatically closed).
Has anyone else experienced this?
If so, does anyone have a solution to go back to the previous behavior?
(note: i dont accept "hit home instead of back to exit out of app" as an acceptable solution. I also dont accept install another launcher as an acceptable solution.)
Please advise. Thank you.
in case it helps...
I have no other launch installed (no LauncherPro, and no AWD Launcher)
I still have stock sense launcher

you could try and download a gingerbread rom from MIUI.us or go to RM or something and try it.
Thanks for responding mini.
I would like to stay stock.
Anyone else notice this problem or know of a fix?
I am having that problem too and it is driving me absolutely insane. It has to do with how the Go Launcher is actually coded.
The app drawer seems to be in another activity and if you launch something from the app drawer when you exit back to the home screen you will return to the app drawer. However when you start something from the home screen you will return to the home screen when resuming. If you run out of memory while in the app and android kills the home screen then you will see different behavior and return to the home screen no matter what.
There is a really simple fix to this behavior, maybe this weekend I'll take a look at this tool and fix it then post a link for it somewhere.

If anyone can try to persuade the developers of go launcher to add a menu option for this that would be awesome.

I actually just took a peek at the site for Go Launcher and it looks like this behavior is new in version 2.61, behavior number 5:

I have sent the developer an e-mail.

Well you can't exactly come here and pick and choose which answers you want to hear. If you have a problem that you don't understand and/or don't know how to solve then you need to be open minded about the answers you're given. I'm not sure how your particular ROM is coded but that very well may have been a change implemented by whomever created the ROM. There are a number of launchers that have their assignments setup that way. There are also some that don't. If so, then you'll either have to use a different launcher, use the home button to get to the home screen, or flash a different ROM. No amount of picky mentalities on your part is going to change that. The only other thing I can suggest is to reflash the ROM, though I doubt this will yield any results, or download another odexed ROM and flash it. Either way it is definitely a software issue. Which means that the issue lies somewhere embedded in how the ROM was built.

Yeah I use Go Launcher and I have the same thing happen to me. I don't find it to be a problem at all since the apps I use 95% of the time are on my dockbar. So when I press the home button it actually does go back to my homescreen since I never open the app drawer. That's my way around it. The apps are more readily available in my dock bar anyway. So it's a win/win for me.
Anyone using lightflow and the stock samsung keyboard? If so do you still have the swipe feature?
No
And it seems that having any Accessibility Services installed/enabled will cause your device to do Talkback stuff when you open folders, pinch out on the home screen, or select a screen while viewing all home screens.
Very annoying
There are other threads about this.
It seems to happen with other apps that need Accessibility Servies turned on. Llama is an example.

Yea, I just deleted the talkback with titanium. no more talking
Like this picture shows... how do you get the mic to show up there?
I looked everywhere as I want that too! Couldn't find it though. I wonder if it's a widget or in another launcher.
Pretty sure it is a widget on Action Launcher. The stock launcher would have the weather on the right, not just the date.

That happens when you change your device language....micro icon appear...my main language is spanish when I was installing pixel launcher and trying google assistant for fun (english of course) I decided to return my device in spanish and icon appear...I must say that I liked ....or you may try disable Google Assistant and you got mic icon too

Pixel launcher will initially show date untill it's gotten information fetched about the weather.
The pill used to appear on my N6P when you disable google now voice commands. I've not tried it on the Pixel thoguh.

Turns out this added a bunch of news from Singapore into my google now feed.
Too many other things change. It removed assistant, turned on "screen search" and changed the home button look and behavior. Must configure the device for each market. They must think the Singapore market needs the icon, while US does not.
Here is an odd one, none of the apps that have a 'add to home screen' function are working in terms of adding the shortcut. So if I open OneNote, for example, and choose the 'add to home' on a section it doesn't make the shortcut on the home screen. It does this, or doesn't do it, in both my custom launcher and the pixel launcher. I even tried removing customizations like Tiles app and Button Mapper app and no change.
Any ideas on what might be the issue?
For me it does not work for firefox but works for chrome. Oreo 8.0.
Let me try in Chrome, so far that I know OneNote and Glympse don't work. NOV Oreo 8.0.
*EDIT* No go for Chrome in either launcher, though it did put up the onscreen message that it was added.
I can get the add shortcut feature to work with chrome but not other apps.
I'm seeing the same thing with two different Nexus 5X phones.
I am having the same issue with hangouts not adding to the homescreen!

Install "QuickShortcutMaker" from PlayStore
This would do the trick for most cases.
And, non of the previous method on Android Pie works to bring it back. Seems the activity that is used to enable this itself has been removed from the Android 10 cause I can't find any through Nova Launcher. Do share if anybody has managed to enable or disable the full bezel in Android 10.

Absent, you have to use software from a 3rd party to enable it, i use the Nova Launcher method on Android 9, it will be a shame it that no longer works as well.
---------- Post added at 12:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:57 PM ----------
1. Install Nova Launcher (you don't have to use it, just install it)
2. Tap And hold on home screen and go to widgets
3. Chose Nova Launcher - Activities and place it on home screen
4. Scroll Down until you find settings and open it
5. Now scroll all the way down until you see Status bar style (.settings$NotchSettingsActivity)
6. Select it

That's some process. Tough luck
I assume you've tried Nacho Notch. Doesn't work?
I was having the same issue with my repaired Nokia 8.1 (flashed with clean Android 10). And the Nova Launcher option was not working anymore (setting not available). A Google session found this thread and the solution there works for me:
Simply download 'settings database editor' from the play store and alter the 'notchfullbezel' setting. I have a UK TA-1128 and it works perfectly for me
Just change the option notch_full_bezel from 1 (black background) to 0 (your wallpaper) and there the notch is.
