Disable Home Button in Android ICS (4.0)

by

How about a workaround..

Write a second app that implements the home screen, when the home screen button is pressed this app will come to the foreground. From this app you then need to push your main app back to the foreground. The only catch is that your Home screen app must never need an update, but you should be able to update the main app freely without the tab asking to set the home launcher.

Hope that makes sense..
