Yes, it is possible to create a home screen application.
There is a Home sample app in your Android SDK installation (assuming you installed the samples from the SDK Manager). It largely boils down to having an activity with an
<intent-filter>usingCATEGORY_HOME.Note that the user who installs your app will have the option of choosing between your home screen and the built-in one. Even if they make your home screen the default one, they will still be able to revert that decision by removing your app:
adb uninstall)For your knowledge, nothing changed in this area with Android 3.0.
