how to get the 3-button combination to work?
Open New Tab > Type google.com > Search or Volume up/down (forgot already) + Home + Power button
Search before you post it is one of the most easily available info. I'll close this thread, kindly use the search button.

I can't seem to find any version of Advanced Power Menu for the prime.
Anyone have a link or a suggested search string to try and find it?
Flashable zips to change the hardware menu key to app switch/recents.
Method is simply to replace MENU with APP_SWITCH in Generic.kl
Tested with TWRP and Google Edition 4.4.2/Hyperdrive RLS15 4.3.
You will lose access to settings menus, so use your preferred alternative method to access them. I use Gravitybox to set long press on recents key to menu. You need to change settings for recents key, not menu key in Gravitybox/whatever you use.
Mostly just for convenience since I always do this when flashing roms anyways and I think it's ridiculous to have to hold the middle button for 2 seconds to switch apps. I just add menu_switch to queue after whatever rom zip I'm flashing.
Attached:
menu_switch.zip - changes menu key to app switch/recents key
menu_revert.zip - reverts changes
Is there a zip to put the Menu / Home buttons back to what they were on the s3 s4? I use apps that dont have a menu tap here button. I need the the original menu button.
Thanks in advance.
If you are rooted check out this post to see what would need to be changed

a zip might be problematic as it might be dependent on the rom you are running.
An even easier way is to download gravity box and set the keys as you wish.
Isn't the default hold action on the "App switcher" (left) icon going directly to settings?
Hi all,
I really am no expert about anything to do with Android but I'm trying to change the power button to the volume button (power button is faulty). I was following this procedure that I found but I cannot locate this file:
Open root browser/ADB, go system/usr/keylayout. Look for file (like) mtk-kpd.kl The file name varies from device to device, but it normally ends with -kpd.kl/-keypad.kl.
I've got as far as the system/usr/keylayout file but there is nothing in there that looks like -kpd.kl/-keypad.kl
Anyone got any tips (or another way of doing this?). Advice much appreciated.
I have a problem with the rom, I have a list of running applications on the long press home button.
my question is how to set up a google assistant on long press home button?
I have original system files but I need to see which file to copy
I'm not interested in any programs but how to change it directly in the system
thank you in advance for your help
