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?

I want to change the menu button to recents, and holding down home to menu

there must be a way to do this...
Funny, what you want to do is exactly how mine works, and I can't avoid it!
Home button pulse from suspend, inevitably launches recents apps.
I want to use home button for wake up, letting me on home screen, and I can't. I must everytime close recents apps. Annoying!!
Will any of the custom roms allow a screenshot soft key to be added to the control bar (like on Samsung Tablets)? Thanks.

i'm using SlimROM and they have an option to add that to the soft keys. either via longpress or just a button. i think many of the ROMs that allow that type of customization will also allow adding screenshot.

Same you can just go into Interface -> Navigation Bar -> Buttons, and increase the number of buttons to add in a screenshot softkey. Or you can use long-press on one for the same action.
Notice the glow on the 'recent' soft button, that's because I set it's longpress to be a screenshot action. Works just fine on SlimBean 6.5-Weekly
Hi everybody,
I recently installed an Xposed module that forces the 3 dot menu in all apps, so I have no use for the menu button on my device. I want to change my menu button to act as a multitasking button. Is this possible? I am running the Google edition's software, hence the G in my signature.
Thanks,
EmEm

Hey everyone, is it possible to use the back button to pull up the recent apps? Rather than just using the home. I don't like pushing down on the home button for to long

It is possible to map certain hardware keys (if your rom allows it). For example, Task650 AoKP has a hardware key menu, however you cannot customize the back button for recent apps, but you can throw recent apps onto the menu button as a hold down. So you can press it for settings as normal, or hold down on it for recent apps. If you cannot find a rom that allows custom hardware button mappings than you can always use a navigation bar (Like a tablet) to access the recent apps.
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)
