Home button misbehaving after an update

My Samsung Galaxy S3 said I had an update available the other day and I uncharacteristically decided to let it do the update. I see little changes - and most seem OK. But the Home button doesn't take me all way to the home screen in some situations now. For example I have a Favorites folder on my home screen. If I open the Favorites folder and run an app from it, the Home button will take me back to the Favorites folder - not all the way back to the home screen.

Has anyone else noticed this? Is there any way to make it act the way it used to?

Thanks.
 
Thats strange. Home should always take you home. Was it the 4.3 update?
Id try asking in the s3 forum. I know that update has been riddled with bugs :thumbup:

It is the 4.3 update. I forgot to mention that.

I moved this thread to the forum dedicated to discussing this phone.

Thanks Thom.
