Edit. You will need to add another Profile to access Taskers own menu if you edit the build prop as above.
If anyone is interested I'll detail that here.

Tasker not needed, You can do this under settings menu:
Settings>display, gestures, buttons>Home
*S¡gned
Not on Google play edition you can't.

This works even better on KitKat. Removes the 3 dot menu bar without removing the in app 3 dot menu.

Do you guys think you could do something similar to wake the device up?
For example long press home or back, while the screen is off, to wake it?

Can't figure out how to do this, cyanogen settings only let me assign them to a task, not disable. The left launcher makes my emulators unusable.

First, download this app :
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...SwxLDEsImNvbS5rYXRlY2NhLnNjcmVlbm9mZmxvY2siXQ..
This app just do one thing: turn off the screen
Then there's two ways
Turn off htc one using nova launcher
1.buy nova launcher prime.
2.go to gesture settings.
3.set any gestures (I prefer double tap) to open app, and make it open this app.
4.done.if you double tap nova launcher home screen now, it will turn off.
Another way is to use Google now command:
1.set button command as long press home for menu and Swipe up for Google now
2.do Google now command by swiping up
3.complete action using the app 'screen off'
4.now swiping up the home screen will turn off the screen (but you have to find another way for Google now-I don't use so )
Hope this thread helps, with this and volume wake up, you won't have to press power button ever again

I use Tasker with proximity sensor to switch on and off screen when my flip case is opened or closed respectively.

That's what I use when I have my flip case but I like it naked and three are the solutions I came up with

Tap to Unlock and Lock (stock HTC one)
HTC ONE.
No LED app
Time Display Constantly
When u tap home button, HTC one will unlock
Screen off and lock ,
Set HTC one gesture as Swipe up for Google now and Set Screen off as default app
Now when u swipe up from home button it will lock !
If you're rooted then try custom roms and kernels. I use elementalx kernel and it has power on options such as swiping from back to home button, double tapping screen, volume on, and htc button hold on.
Hi, is there any way to change behavior of home button? right now you have to hold it for 2 seconds to get to task switcher. I would like to open task switcher using double tap on home button.
I have tried Home2 Shortcut, but it can only bind apps on double tap and unfortunately task switcher isn't there...
You can root and use Xposed G2 module (see G2 android development). This will allow to change buttons even to nexus style ! (Back home recent)

Hi all,
I'm really happy with new Lollipop' based roms since last November
But at the moment I've set the double tip on HOME BUTTON of the nav bar the MENU function... 'cause in Lollipop, for the rom available in this period, there's no way to customize the soft keys and having 4 buttons :
* home
* menu
* recent
* back
I'm using an app to simulate 4th MENU button on the nav bar. Anyone knows a mod to flash to have the availability to change this behaviour ? To add another button ? To custom it ?
Thx :highfive:
What app did you use to simulate the menu button?

The name was Virtual Menu Root Button, u can't find it anymore on Google Play 'cause is old, no more support. The developer is the same of :
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.ne.neko.freewing.VirtualButtonRoot
that released this new one with all the buttons
So I got an app and there is no dedicated settings button in it and I was thinking if there is on the phone a way like long press or double tap a specific key to open the settings menu like the note 3 had a settings button instead of the recent app.
I really need to go in the settings otherwise I can't use the app if someone knows a way how to it!
Thanks
Long press back key to get to the settings menu.
