Hi, You should build your own home activity ( a real one that handles all the events needed to be handled by a home) then at each key methods of your activity (onResume, onCreate) you just launch your apllication using the intent (startActivity(intent)). If building a home is a too huge work, a home is already available (under apache licence) in the sdk, to be exact in the sample of the sdk. Then, as you did, just set this home as the default one on the devices you want to manage. I have the project to make such application for my kid allowing him to use only some applications (the ones I decided). Hope it helps. Mathias Seguy Founder of Android2EE
