If you are satisfied with your home button response time then don't read further.
After trying a lot of things just found out that this provides absolutely fastest home response.
If someone has an idea how to theme it a bit I would be grateful. Also if you want a screen record proof, it won't be a problem to record/upload.
root + xposed framework mandatory, meaning I take no responsibility nor credits.
have not tried it with stock launcher as primary launcher.
Steps for stock rom:
1. Install any lightweighted launcher. Set it as default. (you won't use it)
2. Freeze home selector. (titanium or whatever)
3. G2 tweakbox > theme tweaks > navigation bar >other tweaks > enable button combinations
4. Settings > display > front touch buttons > button combination >drag in recents
5. Gravitybox > navigation keys actions > recent keys single-tap > set your primary launcher
[optional] 6. "App settings" > make your primary launcher resident
try to use recents button to see if it is working as smooth as hell
tell me what you think, cheers
[edit] managed to theme it with "g2 xposed", navigation bar looks normal

I have flashed the Dorimanx's new ROM and seen the soft key at the left top conner.
Link to Dorimanx's new ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1166948
How can I accomplish this for other ROMs? An App? or some Setting?
Thanks in advance.
You can try Button Savior, you can find it in the Android Market but you have to be rooted to use it. The app puts a icon on your screen that stays on top of everything. You touch the icon and it opens up more buttons on your screen that will stay for the amount of time you select or permenently if you choose. It gives you a exit button a plus button ( this expands to more buttons being a phone, camera, and search buttons), a menu button, a home button, and a lock screen button. I used it all the time as it really saves wear and tear on your external hardware buttons and it is so easy to use and always available on your screen.
thanks for the quick reply. i ll give it a try
If the "other" rom is based on CM7, you can simply enable a setting in (Settings > CM7 Settings > Tablet Tweeks > Enable Soft Keys & set your own)
Otherwise, follow the post above yours

I have been struggling with this issue for long time now and this is my last shot here. My phone is rooted, stock KitKat and I use Nova launcher.
The issue:
When I turn my phone on there is not navbar in the home screen. When I open some app the navbar doesn't appear like it should. However if I press power button when some app is open (phone screen goes off) and press it again (lock screen appears) and slide to open my phone then the navbar is there. So now when the navbar is there it also stays there (even in the home screen) as long as press power button in the home screen. So every time I press power button in the home screen navbar disappear and every time I press power button when some app is open I get navbar back.
If I change back to TouchWiz everything works great. I mean navbar goes off when I'm in home screen and come back when I open some app. So far I have tried to fix this with these methods:
- Tried Apex launcher: No difference to Nova
- Installed "SoftKey Enabler" from Play Store: No effect expect when I disable it I lose navbar for good
- Manually change qemu.hw.mainkeys value 0 or 1 in build.prop: No effect expect when I put value 1 I lose navbar for good
- Installed Xposed and "App settings" module. In the "App settings" I choose Nova and then tap the option "force full screen" but there is not any effect
- Installed Gravity Box and Tasker: I used this guide here. Now navbar goes off automatic when I go to home screen and come back when I open some app but if I press power button in the home screen I lose navbar. I can get navbar back only if open app and press power button again. When I get navbar back it works great as long as I press power button home screen. Also this method is little bit laggy and Opera mini browser keeps crashing when expended desktop is on.
The reason why I want to use Nova is that with Nova my phone works very fast and smooth and I can custom many things. Also Nova support to rotate home screen in landscape what TouchWiz doesn't support. I use Sliding Bluetooth Keyboard with my phone so mostly I use my phone in landscape. I would be happy even I can get solution to keep navbar there always (even in the home screen) but best solution would be navbar to automatic disappear in home screen.
I really hope that someone could help me with issue.
help!
Anyone?
All I got to do is hit home once and the button responds, with this setup the home button responds on the first time period, eveytime( you need nova launcher) If i hit home button from the home screen my 3T sleeps & hibernates my phone. Get a app called tiles, it has a density tile, set (right side swipe up) in fling settings to brings up (settings panel) and put your most convenient tiles in the bottom right so you'll be able to change screen size quick. Get opera browser & set in hardware button (long press brings up search assistant) now you hold home down and it brings up Google search & the keyboard automatically opens, now your searching quick. It's operas search page but is Googles engine and the exact same search suggestions as Google. With this setup there's no lag with the home button either, just don't assign a third action. So you get 3 functions of the home button but with no 1 second lag, cause one of the functions is set in Nova

Fling comes with roms like resurrection remix & AOSP extended. You need greenify installed on your phone to get sleep & hibernate, you'll see the option when your changing your buttons

I don't take ownership of this, but the website Gadgeteer did.
You are suppose to be able to access system UI tuner by swiping down twice to get the entire device settings menu, then
tap and hold the gear icon for 5 seconds, then release. If that doesn't work, the workaround is:
Download and install Nova Launcher...(I use Nova Prime, but the free one is suppose to work)
After install, make Nova the default launcher. Then, open the Nova Launcher settings.
Go to gestures & input. Tap Home button. Tap Shortcuts. Tap Activities. Scroll down and tap
on System UI. Scroll and tap demo mode. Tap the home shortcut at the bottom 3 button screen.
Then tap the home button again. System UI tuner will pop up.
If you want to revert back to how it was, open Nova settings, gestures & input, home button, none
and that will revert it back to how it was.
Credit again, to the website Gadgeteer.

Hi, i have stock OOS 10 and I am looking for a way to clone the stock camera app (mine is ver 3.0.66) so that i can have a "duplicate" stock camera.
I´m trying to have a duplicate camera so that i can deactivate the main one, thus making it impossible to access it from the lock screen (bottom right corner).
I have tried using App Cloner but the cloned camera doesn't seem to work properly, as some features are not available (such as 1080p 60fps video recording, portrait photos, google lens, and some other settings). I tried playing a little bit with the options but i really have no idea what mos of those are for.
I like the stock camera, it does more than enough for what I want so moving to another one is not an option. Does anyone know how can i properly clone it, or maybe someone can upload a cloned APK ready-to-install?
Thanks in advance!

No interest... Why do complicate when you can do simple
Just use Gesture for Run OOS Cam from the Double Tap bouton ON/OFF
Settings > Button & gestures > "Quickly turn on camera"
(press power button twice for camera)
or
Settings > Button & gestures > Quick gestures > Screeen of Gestures
(Choose a "Draw O/V/S/M/W" shortcut for launch camera, advise the O, gesture is quick and simple)

Thanks, and I'm already doing that, but what I'm trying to do is get rid of the camera shortcut icon on the bottom right corner without having to root. If i disable stock camera, then that shortcut disappears, but I'm left without a camera, and i really like the stock one, that's why i want to clone it with a different package name
