Yes, this is great. I think you have to enlist in their beta tester program to get the update. Also worth noting that the FB Messenger app still has the 3-dot menu bar.
As mxrider108 said you do need to sign up for their program then manually push the update to your phone for 3.5 but it is well worth it. App settings now rest under the left swipe side of the app near the bottom.

im s-off so i flashed the radio firmwear zip in bootloader.. and then i flashed new stock rooted jelly bean rom.. ever since that when i go into display then buttons.. i try and change it so my recent app button is menu.. but not it wont work and before it worked just fine?? go into display then recent app button then choose the middle option 2# one that should make recent app the menu.. worked just fine before
The menu button on recent apps doesn't work on the home screen. You gotta be in an app or the app drawer for it to work. I know it sucks, takes longer to change skins and wallpapers now

Anyone know of a way to get the regular ICS settings menu? I'm not really too fond of the tabbed menu that LG uses.

You can enter the (menu, oops) settings screen, hit your menu button and you can switch to regular list view.

I am considering getting a HTC One but one of my reservations is that I use Apex launcher and am wondering about the two softkey layout of the phone. with there being no menu button, is there that annoying menu bar always on the bottom when using 3rd party launchers? If not, how can you access that menu on this phone?

I think you mean the three dot settings button, right? Yah, it will display a bar at the bottom of the screen with the buttons. However, you can install a custom rom that will remove the bar and allow you to long press the back button to open that menu.
Bummer. Are there any other launchers that dont have the menu bar at the bottom, without rooting? Its not that I am afraid of rooting, but I dont want to mess with my phone's basic functionality right out of the box.

Use XPOSED MOD it has a module to remove 3-dot menu.

I am using the Apex launcher, and there is no black "three dots" at the bottom. It works fine.
On the other hand, I tried the Go Launcher EX, and that one I had to uninstall because it did have the black bar.
EDIT: Not rooted.
Awesome! How do you access the menu then from the home screen using this phone?

You can long press on any empty space and the menu will come up. Or, it can be accessed from the app drawer, top right. Three dots there.

most apps have that menu option on the top right (used to have menu button on samsung phone) but flipboard doesn't seem to have this?
as far as i can see i have no option in there on this phone to have a menu appear and choose to sync (download for offline). this is the only app that i have the issue in oddly.
is it just the app needing to be updated or am i missing something?

Menu button also can appear on bottom right side on the navbar. Not using flipboard so can't really say, if there is no 3 points might have something else. Or maybe flipboard need an update for the XZU.

Flipboard uses its own settings. Tap that red thingy on the side or something. It's a clumsy implementation, but it's there.
Sent from my Z Ultra, using XDA Premium 4
that red thing doesn't give any options really. takes you to a content list. story types etc.
plus it's there on my old note2. emailed them anyway
You should really start to search better. Took me 8 seconds to find the settings, which includes offline reading.
Sent from my Z Ultra, using XDA Premium 4
yea, i know that but there's a synchronise and compose option under settings too
Aaand I'm officially confused. What exactly are you trying to do? You want to set a menu button in the app which lets you sync articles for offline reading? Is this an option that lets you so this from an article? I don't use Flipboard on a daily basis, so I have no idea.
Sent from my Z Ultra, using XDA Premium 4
the option you found exists on both my phones. on the note 2 with a physical menu button i get the options i mentioned but unlike very other app on my phone i don't get that 3 dot menu on the top right in flipboard
Alright, as I said, I'm not that familiar with Flipboard, so I don't know. Hope you find out if it though. Cheers.

Thanks!
Does anyone know a way to get a menu option on one of the hardware keys? Recents, home, back...
I used xposed on cm12 based ROMs on my S5, and the app "all in one gestures" on touchwiz based lollipop ROMs, but I can't use either on the s6 edge (app says device not supported).
Any ideas? I have an app I use for work and it doesn't have the overflow-3 buttons to access the menu!
Turns out the app I was talking about now has the overflow menu button, but it's not a part of the app, it seems android has noticed it didn't have one and added one itself?
Does that seem right?
We developed this app so know it doesn't have this natively...
I noticed TouchWiz give is a little floating menu for apps that don't have one. XDA is a good example.
