Button 1 is set at the default; "Messaging", but when I press it the application doesn't start right. The upper & lower bars change to show "email" & "X" at the top and "New" & "Menu" at the bottom but the main area of the screen still shows my today screen.
If I tap Start and then "Messaging" it works perfectly.
I tried resetting the button and I tried switching the buttons so the upper left button starts Internet Explorer and the upper right button starts Messaging but still the same.
As I said, it's an intermittent problem. Any ideas?
Here is another question/request....

3. press the "system" folder

Sorted
cheers buddy,i'v been pulling my hair out lol.....
Is there any way to remap the function of "RecentApps" soft key to "Menu" function?
I almost do not use "RecentApps" and I find the necessity of manual search of "settings" button in each app quite distracting.
I have Xperia Ray smartphone and it has Back button, Home button (long press on this button launches RecentApps and not the useless Google circle pane, like in Nexus, which is not even customizable) and Menu button, which I use VERY often.
In my opinion - this scheme is the most convenient and I'd like to get it in Nexus 7.
Does anybody have an idea how it could be implemented?

Where 'menu' key is applicable, three dots show on the right low corner. If these dots don't appear, I don't think 'menu' key would bring you anywhere anyway (or those three dot's appear anywhere else, like in one of top corners, and pressing menu key would open the menu from those dots anyway, so you'd have to move your fingers a lot)
I have xperia as well (Arc S), and as much as I had to get used to it from beginning, I understand why the choice of these buttons (not every app uses the menu key, so it would be useless in such cases).
I don't know how else are you going to switch apps then, click back every time?

It would be really good if it was always true. Unfortunately, it's not. For example, there is a FBReader app, where you could hide all the status and toolbars and where you just cannot get into menu without separate button. Besides it's always better to have one familiar key than to look for GUI shortcut in each app.
To switch between apps - long press on Home key. It's not so frequently used feature to have a special button for that. IMHO.
Anyway, does anyone know anything about some solution?
Hey, this is the first phone/rom I've seen Titanium Backup missing the menu button (3 dots). I can access preferences by going to "Problems ?" in the Overview page, but it's still really strange. I'm using TB from the play store (with purchased key).
Had the same problem. I just used the GravityBox Xposed module to reassign one of the capacitive buttons as my menu button since I'm used to the old layout on my OPO.
Or you can turn on Mi Pop and use the on screen menu button

To expand on this, the mi-pop arrow can expand into 4-point button menu if you pres on the arrow, hold and swipe it out. one of those will be the 3-dot button
