Any ROM with Hardwarebutton Key Switch on Android MM? - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey folks, I hope I got the right section for my question:
Do someone know any ROM Based on Android Marshmellow, which inkludes a funktion to swap the hardwarekeys "back" and "menu"? So, I think since Lollipop, Android swapped these buttons and I can just not habituate with that!
Everyone is crying about FP and laser autofokus, but no one inkludes this small function. Yes the most ROMs allow to give the menu/recents button some options to change, but I want the BACK button at the right and the MENU button on the left and holding home for RECENTS.
I've tried so many ROMs on different states, but never found that function.
Well, maybe you guys know such a ROM, where the funcion is included and if there never was one I would appreciate it if someone would inklude this in future ROMs! THANK YOU!
Oh btw. the latest version with that function I've found is the RAZOR fix from jan'16 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/development/official-5-1-1r24-t3225913), but this is still Lollipop and comes with some bugs for me. Their official website is still down for me, I can't get more information.

Kinda new into Android world and afraid that I have done some mistakes till now.

Problem is that I want to be able to go back and install Cyanogen 7.1 but it seems that being an older kernel I cannot downgrade! Is there a possibility to do something as I hate the looks of my ROM now and also the battery life sucks
Thanks!

With the SBF in that thread you can downgrade to froyo.
This is incredible.
already flash this and now I have downgraded. Now I am downloading 2.2.2 Froyo 3.4.2-177-3 GB Blur and I hope I will be able to get my cyanogenmod back
Could you please suggest the best ROM to flash after the chinese one was flashed to device. I tried a 2.2.1 and phone doesn't boot, now I am trying 2.2.2 Froyo 3.4.2-177-3 GB Blur
----------------------------Later edit------------------------
Nop...still not working....When I am writing the new ROM it end succesfully but phone doesn't come on!
Please provide a solution or a version of ROM to flash
Is there something to be known regarding what should be flashed after this Chinese ROM is flashed in phone?!
You can try this:
http://ge.tt/8EXW7QD/v/0
This zip contains the chinese SBF, and a nandroid-Backup with a european system-partition.
You must root the chinese one, install SndInitDefy_1.9.apk.
And then you must restore the nandroid-backup.
you can only use this froyodown at the future, you can not flash normally froyo.sbf ever cause you on BL6.
but it dont matters, you can install CM7, MIUI, CM9 or whatever you want.
Thank you mate... At this point I have already on my device Cyanogen7, unfortunately now I am struggling with a bug of it....as when I try to call or receive a call display goes black and won't power on when I press the power button but this is a different story and I will look for answers elsewhere.
Thanks again for all your help...you'we been a huge one for me!

Your proximity sense censor seems to be not working correctly.
I was thinking that the problem was from within the firmware because in stock phone firmware I had no issue. With CyanogenMod when I give a call display goes black as supposed but, never comes one again and the notification LED light's red, but only just a tiny tiny bit....on the day can't be seen but only at night.

Just remove your battery cover, and call someone...wait for the screen to stay black and then use an appropriate screwdriver to unscrew the tiny screw on the simetric side of the proximity sensor..unscrew it until the screen goes On again...your problem is solved

Changing Button and Recen Apps Behavior

Hi!
I have a rooted Note 4 with Sweet rom installed.
I want to know how to change the button an recent apps behavior.
In S4, the button use to open recen app list and is you pressed on the left of it it would open the context menu. In Note 4 the button does not open the recent app and if you press on the left of it it will open recent apps.
Is there anyway I can change that? I guess you can but I dont know how, does anyone knows how to do that?
Thank you!!!
There where some mods that did do that but it been along time since I saw them so I am guessing they only work with a very early build of 5.0.1 or even 4.4.4 but I don't think it will work on 5.0.2 or 5.1.1.
A rom or two supported that as well which still are being updated to newest firmware but I do not know if they still support that feature and nor do I remember what the roms where called. But if you ain't lazy then you'll find it.
I'd your room is deodexed and supports Xposed, you can do that easily

[Drivers/Hardware repair] Home Button (including Fingerprint Sensor) completely dead

Hey guys,
I know there are threads like this all over this forum, but as I tried everything that was described in different threads and nothing worked, i just made up a new one... sorry for that.
Some days ago my home button just stopped working for no reason. I was at the latest CyanPop nightly and apart from scanning FP, everything worked fine. The FP-Error is known to CM13 because of the drivers etc so i was aware of that.. I was getting home from work when suddenly my home-button stopped working for no reason. I thought it might be due to the custom rom etc, so i went back to OxygenOS 2.2.0 but it still didn't work out.
What I tried for now:
full wipe
flashing Oxygen OS 2.0.2 and 2.0.3
installing stock modem, firmware, kernel rom and recovery
as OP support told me: unhide Google Search Bar
hard reboot (holding powerbutton until it reboots)
I still don't know if it's a hardware related error, but I really hope it's not. I bought my OP2 in the official OnePlus Store in Beijing when I was on holiday in China. I already got in contact with the OnePlus support, but they said there is no warranty for the OnePlus Two China Edition (can anyone confirm that..?), so i don't think they're not going to repair it, not even if i pay for it.
So, does anyone know what else I could try (software AND hardware related!)? Is there a way to buy a new FP-Sensor/Home-Button and replace it manually? Every smartphone-repair-store in my area told me that they don't have spare parts for OnePlus devices...
I really hope someone can help me with this!
Thanks in advance,
Neo

Lenovo Ideapad K1, should i bother rooting since my volume down button broken?

Hey guys,
So I found my Lenovo Ideapad K1 wifi model in some drawer. I gave this to my sister before she got a smartphone. She took it with her to my country. Suffice to say the back cover is kind of loose, the volume down button is gone and I am surprised the screen even works. So after making sure all works I did a factory reset on it and then it hit me, it is still one 3.2 Honeycomb. I am hering that google will cut support to older androids (i.e. anything bellow 4.0). So since the tablet is working fine I want to re-purpose it! I found a kit-kat rom based on CM10 which is more than enough to give it more like, my only problem is without the functioning volume down button how do I boot into recovery to even root it?
Is it rooted ?
There are many apps available in the store which will reboot the system into recovery mode. One such is the ROM manager.
Where did you manage to get the Kitkat ROM for K1?
Can you please share the details?

About Lineage OS and other things

Hey guys, this is my 1st post so if I'm doing anything that I'm not supposed to or posting in the wrong area, please say so.
Ok, so, I used to have Android phones back in the day, since 2.2-2.3, then 4.0-4.4 and still used custom roms to update my mom's Moto G 1st Gen, from 4.4 to 7, but I manly used iPhones ever since 2012 and the easy jailbreak life made me kind of lazy - all of the process of jailbreaking and installing tweaks was very easy.
Now I'm back into the Android world with a Moto G4+ and I've already unlocked the bootloader and installed a few of the available custom roms, but none of them were actually stable enough to use in a daily basis so I got back to the stock rom.
Now I'm downloading LineageOS (that's the rom I also used to upgrade my mom's phone) and I got a few questions about it (since I can't post them on the official thread):
- can I enable the notification LED?? I can't do that in the stock rom but it worked really fine in the cypherOS rom.
- is there any option to disable the soft keys and use the fingerprint sensor as these buttons?? I mean, some kind of gesture, like the VirtualHome tweak in iOS, when a touch equals to home, a double tap to multitask etc. Just saw that the G5 will have some gestures in the FP sensor that will replace the soft keys, so a port of this feature would also be good.
- is this rom already rooted or do I have to install something else??
- is xposed working?? I actually found one article about it in the G4 but it was for MM and then I didn't find anything about it in N.
Sorry for my dumb questions, I swear I was going to read all of the official thread but when I was in the 9th page I saw that there was 294 total pages and then I gave up. :crying:
[EDIT]

OK so, answering my own questions (at least a few):
- the LED is enabled by default I'm in heaven;
- THERE IS a default option to use the FP sensor as home button AND another one as to place multitask screen to show up by double pressing the home button. With this two options I am able to use the FP sensor at it's full potential (in my humble opinion) BUT as you can see in the images I am able to hide the softkeys only in a few parts of the system, it still shows up when you pull down notification center and also when you open up the keyboard. It's very annoying. I guess this question is still up.
- I think it's rooted by default thank you very much.
To your xposed question: no, there's no xposed for nougat out yet

It won't come back. If you mean a screenshot where you see "themes", then it is with substratum. Themes appears in settings after installing substratum. It has nothing to do with CMTE.
