Hi, is there any way to replace roles of those 2 navigation keys?
I have problem with screen sensitivity on bottom right part so want to have back key left (back is muck more used and this part of screen is perfectly responsible)
This will help me a lot, I have no solution to fix this or to replace phone...
I don't know if there's a mod to exchange the functions of those 2 soft keys. What i know is you can install an on-screen navigation bar to have back, home, and recent apps buttons. It will work only on Lollipop touchwiz:

If you want to disable / re-enable the capacitive keys and physical home button:

how do I remap the hardware keys ?
what I want to do is remap the back key to toggle the display on and off ?
I have memory map software which I would like to control via the front panel as the phone will be in a waterproof box and hard to reach the top button.
this will be used on my bike to confirm my location.
just want to enable this to save on battery
any ideas ?
many thanks
Are the return and home keys more dim than the search and menu keys for anyone else? It is cery subtle and not really a big deal but I am curious if the same is happening for others.
I just noticed this recently so I am not sure if it came that way when I got my phone or if it is a side effect of using the keys (I usr the return and home keys a lot more than the other two).
Is there a way to swap between the recent capacitive touch button and back button ? I know in the Stock ROM this is possible but im on ResuractionRemix... !!!
Thanks for all your help over the years folks. I have a predicament of my own to solve now.
My S7 Edge SM-G395F has had some minor water damage, the only thing that seems affected is the capacitive 'back' and 'recent apps' buttons. Not working at all, and I've gone through all the possible standard fixes (hard reset, safe mode, factory reset).
I was wondering if anyone has managed to fine a way through roms, hacks etc to move these buttons above the originals and home button. I'm using an app to have floating buttons at the moment but no matter where I put them they get in the way, and repair is beyond my price range now.
So looking for a way to keep my phone more functional by adding a bar above a the home button permanently to use these close to the originals in a dedicated space and losing a little space from the screen itself.
Happy with room/flashing etc, any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
my buttons work fine but I always use an app called GMD Gesture Control to use gestures instead of tapping back and recent keys. the app doesn't have a navigation bar so it will not take the bottom part of the screen.
just download the pro version, not the lite one, and you'll find it the best app for replacing your broken keys' behavior.
I've rooted my phone to get soft keys since one of the buttons has stopped working...
I included the activation line in the build prop to activate them but the soft keys are not spaced properly.
The back key is on the left of the home button... Any help regarding this?
Did you try alternatively one of the apps available on Google Play? Such as https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dogusumit.ortatus&hl=en_US and https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nu.nav.bar ?
yes i did, even bought two apps, but they dont work as seamlessly as they should
