The goal will be to start a new activity when user go to home screen touch while activity is running & visible.

Hello,
When activity is paused, I would start a service which would start the required activity.
You would have to think about a global variable to check if the second activity should be started or not.

Yeah he work, i try that but they are some delay :/

 

[lemonisdead]

The delay is due to the device's speed. For some actions, like the Back key, perhaps could you block the keycode_back too when not needed (nothing to do with the Home key if your app is not the launcher).

There is no reliable way to lock the home button. You can start with this tutorial: Android "Kiosk mode" tutorial
