Astrid causes incorrect function of Home button on T-Mobile G2 Touch

I noticed that the home-button-action seems to be reset every time i hold the home-button to bring up the stack of background applications.

Also, when Astrid is installed, TouchFlo is visible in this list. This is unlike normal behaviour, where TouchFlo is hidden.

Uninstalling Astrid solved the problem. Reinstalling brings it back.

This is the same on the HTC Hero, although I've found that uninstalling Astrid seems to solve it. Reinstalling makes it come back.

G1 owner here, and I have the same problem (though not specifically with TouchFlo). In the end, it's impractical to install/use any app that offers an alternative Home, since it becomes so insanely annoying to have to confirm the application I want so frequently.

I can also confirm the steps to reproduce are as simple as using the quick applications menu (long-pressing Home) and later pressing Home.

Same issue confirmed on hero. It's pretty frustrating.

fixed, sorry everyone. will be released in next cycle.

Fantastic. Is there a release date for 2.9.0? Or can we install the
daily build somehow?
