I can't disable my phone's home button.
I'm trying the following but it is not working:
getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON);
Is it possible to disable the home button within Android?

`WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON` is for keeping screen on while app is visible. – krystian71115 Jul 13 '15 at 12:39

Unfortunately this is not possible, but you can set your app as launcher, then, when home button is clicked your app will be called, keeping your app open.
To make this, add two categories in your main activity.
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.HOME" />
