Change long press action. - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
On my phone the recent apps key doesn't work (water damage) so i was wondering if there was a way to assign a long press of the home button to recent apps instead of going to Google Now. I am on Xtrestolite lollipop so there is no xposed. I was reading along the lines of something in the /system/usr/keylayout but could not find anything.
If anyone knows a way to do this any replies would be appreciated.

You will be able to do this on Alliance lollipop when it's released soon

Thanks for the reply but would it be possible to tell me how this is done? whether it is a smali edit or something in the /keylayout folder.
I will consider Alliance rom in the future but i need to use this feature as soon as i can because i cannot close apps when needed.
Once again, Thanks for your reply.

[Q] Notification Toggles

Hello I've tried asking in the ROM-specific forum but nobody there seems to be able to help me. I'm hoping someone here can help me out.
So I tried out Echoe Rom v22 which is a leaked Lollipop build, the team added some awesome stuff except that they also removed the Reading Mode toggle in the notifcation toggles as you can see in the pictures that I will be providing. Is there any way to do edit stuff myself so that I can bring back the Reading Mode toggle?I know it is still in the settings but I frequently read and it is such a hassle to turn it off and on by digging through the settings.
I surely hope this isn't something tedious to do, thank you for whatever help anyone can provide.

Lightning quick recent apps view, xposed required...

I've been playing around with xposed apps and found xuimod and found a way to change recent app view to classic under framework menu option.
It's extremely quick but no buttons to clear recent apps.
Hope this helps people.

Sent from the first Samsung Galaxy ever
Thanks for the tip! It definitely is faster than the regular one.
Yeah, I'm assuming it's the animation or the way they implemented the look of the recent apps in kit Kat that takes it so long.

Silly question, but does this still allow to "kill" all apps listed from running in background or am I completely misunderstanding it's functionality? Thanks.
Works great thanks and no there is no kill recent app button as op button as op said.

Long hold back to kill?

Hey Guys!
I'm kinda missing the feature of holding back button for a 1,5-2sec to kill app that is in full screen. It's missing in +5 for some reason. Any ideas how to replace it? I didn't find a port for now. Device is rooted ofc
hope they will implement in stock rom... Why don't we input this request in their system ? If we will be many, they will hear us maybe
I'm running 7.1.2 LineageOs on my OPX and have the option, in developer options all the way at the bottom

Well, All In One Gestures on the play store allows you to do this.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.phoenixstudios.aiogestures
It requires root and a bunch of permissions if you feel it's needed.
I also use All In One Gestures just for Back to Kill

stock dialer moding

hi all is there a way to mod the stock dialer of p10 lite stock oreo with root
i mean every start of the app is with expanded digit keyboard like that

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
but i work mostly with recent calls
and every time i must hide the kayboard to see more calls like this
for me it is very stupid that there is no way to set start screen on recents without keyboard
or to be like samsung phones in any way you close the application then open from where you closed it even if you restart
i tried lots of dialers from market but none of them suits for me
thanks
come on someone must know where to edit I'll do the rest just give me some clue or may be i must move the thead to other section

Question Recent app selector

Hi, I've searched but I can't find anything. Is there a way to activate this button in the recent app drawer? It's really useful to select text and translate it or copy it to the clipboard.

Probably with a custom rom

Not possible with Stock ROM but, you can with Custom ROMs.
