Allow Nav buttons to be mapped, so you can set how they will behave when you tap or hold them, like open app, go to sleep, turn off BT, etc.
Thank you.
Also make possible to add custom buttons.. I agree with you

The Bluetooth button on the phone screen (during a call) has never worked for me. To turn on bluetooth I have to go back to home screen and turn it on from there. Is this only my phone or is this true for others?

I haven't used Bluetooth recently, but as an option you could also put the Bluetooth widget in the strip of notifications power widget, available when you pull the notification bar down. More convenient than on the in-call screen anyway.
Configure what widgets are present and what order they're presented in here -> Settings/CyanogenMod settings/Interface/Notification power widget
From there choose "Widget buttons" to choose what widgets to show, and "Widget button order" to change what order they're shown in.
Hint: If you unchoose all the notification power widgets from the "Widget buttons" menu, and then re-choose only the ones you want and in the order you want them, you won't have to re-order them in the "Widget button order" menu.
Thanks, I actually had the button on the notification screen, just hadn't thought of using it during a call yet. Good idea! I'm still curious why the in-call button doesn't work, but this will make it easy enough to turn on.
Just flashed from GSBv2.2G to GSBv2.5 this morning and haven't tried that bluetooth button on the phone screen yet.
I'm using the notification power widget and it works like a charm. Super fast compared to stock.

You're welcome! Probably just an oversight in the CM7 development.
Hi everyone,
I usually leave my auto rotation turned off, but when I want it in for a short period (eg to watch a video horizontally) I have to pull the status bar down and select it, then turn it off again.
I was thinking it would be useful to have a shortcut or gesture such as double tapping the status bar or screen to toggle autorotation, or maybe keeping your finger pressed on the screen as you turn the phone as a temporary toggle.
Is there anything like this?
Power Control Widget (surely you already have it).
Yes but a gesture is useful, because when full screen videos are playing you have to press home button, toggle, then go back to it. Is there something like activator for jailbroken idevices

Search for "Tasker" in the Play store. I'm pretty confident it can do gestures, it's a pretty awesome app if you like customizing stuff like that.

I am using a Galaxy Nexus. Most of the time, keys on the navigation bar are not touched by accident. But when playing a game I often touch the soft key accidentally. Because many games require to touch controls on the edge of the screen, which is very close to the navigation bar. iOS, on the other hand, does not have this problem, because apps use the full screen, and there is one hardware button. Also, I often accidentally swipe up from the bottom to launch Google Now, when actually I wanted to scroll up. There is no menu to disable that swipe up action, except disabling the Google Now. I want to use Google Now but not by swiping up. I would prefer just a icon on my home screen to launch Now.
I already saw some custom ROMs have a feature to toggle the navigation bar, but I think there must be some official solution to this. The solutions I can think of;
1. The custom ROM way. Add toggle menu to the power menu.
2. Make the buttons as physical buttons not capacitive buttons.
3. Add another physical key on the side to enable/disable navigation bar.
4. Swipe from left to right on the navigation bar to lock it. Swipe again to unlock it.
5. Long pressing Home toggles the navigation bar. On first long press, the home button is changed to a lock icon. To unlock the bar, long press the lock icon.
6. Or Google Now is launched by long pressing of the multitasking button.
What do you think? Do you have the same troubles?

You can kinds of disable it using SwipeLaunch Disabler.

Honestly probably all nexus owners experience this problem although I personally give it up for awesome stock launcher and features and being able to easily hack it.

Hi guys - is there a way to customize the 'tap' behavior of nav bar buttons?
I want to 'double tap' home button to 'alt-tab' or go to previous app.
I want to hold back button to kill app.
Is there a way to customize navigation buttons like we had in older OnePlus.
Long press back button to screen off and remove Google Assistant on home button
Not for the moment, the only customs actions available are
Long press home : google assistant
Double tap Overview : quick swith between active app and previous app
Really miss those feature
I am rooted with Magisk and installed LSPosed (RiRu). Then in LSPosed install Gravitybox. Here you can do it! Only non-working for me was "double tap to sleep" on HOME-button. Does work on recent or back button.
WARNING: do NOT use the option to move the clock!!! To the right it works, when you put it in the middle, you'll screw up your phone!!! To me it lead to a new softwareflash in servicecenter!
Rest of Gravitybox might work but I basically use it to activate splitscreen and double tap to sleep.
