Thank you for the find. I had noticed some discrepancies before but it works flawlessly now.

Change Power Menu longpress timeout (Xposed)

One of the things I love about AOSP ROMs as opposed to LG ROMs is that the power menu activates a lot quicker. I recently found a way to replicate this effect using Xposed.
1. Install Xposed (make sure you're on Dalvik)
2. Install Xposed additions, then activate it and reboot. There appears to be a pro version, though you won't be needing it for this.
3. Go to Buttons, Long Press Delay = whatever you want. 100 is the lowest, 250 feels about right. Too low and your risk activating the power menu when trying to lock the phone.
4. Tap "Add new Key", then press the Power button to detect it. Press OK and then enter the newly created "Power" option
5. Tap "Add New Condition", then tap "Screen On". Optionally add "Lock Screen" as well. No need to add "Screen Off", I don't mind the long delay when the screen is off as it prevents against accidental activation.
6. Inside the Condition, check Long Press, then configure it to open the Power Menu. Make sure to do this for each condition.
Ta-da, instantaneous Power Menu.
Thanks ? What you think about module for additional apps in Quick Window on stock KitKat? ?

A little problem with Long-press action on nav-bar

I'm currently on a D851 G3 stock rooted MM, I've enabled long-press action on nav-bar however, after I press and hold the home button to turn off the screen then unlocking the screen, open an app and press home button to back to homescreen (here is the problem), it won't, you need to press once again to make it happen I mean I have to press twice to make it back to home, the problem just occurs once right after unlocking my phone. Btw, there is no problem at all after I turn off Long-press action so I assumes there is a minor bug with this greenify function on my phone. Just a small issue but I hope someone can help me with it. Tks guys for reading

[TIPS] Makes The home button responsive

Hello,
When you press the home button it takes around a second for the screen to respond that's because the system is waiting to see if you going to double click for the camera or triple click for the one handed mod.
FIX: disable quick launch camera and one handed mod and see the speed.
Regards
I am not experiencing this at all I hit the button and the screen pops on. No lag. That being said, quick launching the camera is something I can't live without.

Menu/Recents button and long press for split screen in CM14+

I'd not noticed this before but it seems the RN3 left hand button is a recents button on press and a menu button on long press. This prevents the handy split screen feature from working in CM14 and above on this button. I can get this feature to work by adding a "Long press action" to the home button in settings however I would like it to work the same as my other Android devices.
Any thoughts on how this can be changed? I've had a mess in the keyboard layouts (where I also removed the long press on fingerprint to start the camera as it's annoying) but no luck with this.
Thanks.
EDIT: After changing the values again in Settings->Buttons this now seems to be working as it should. Odd.

Screen Off Device Administrator forcibly latching to hardware Search button?

I can't seem to find any sort of way to turn this action off, as it makes my hardware search button unusable for anything else.
for a while I thought I had an issue with the ROM on my phone and this button, but it seems it was Greenify all along. I've been using it since August and must have activated said device administrator down the line.
so, I went in on a similar phone and found that it was Greenify doing it all along.
Now, when I long-press the Search button on either phone, it brings the notification up asking if it can be allowed, and I do not want this.
this is a Motorola Droid 4 and a Motorola Droid Razr MAXX that this is both happening on, running LineageOS 14.1. as I see it, these are among the oldest phones able to run 14.1, but all the more need to run Greenify for screen-off battery savings, especially since these are low-RAM devices (1GB, 838MB of which is able to be utilized).
with Greenify installed, the search button is unmappable in the system settings; Greenify takes it over and never lets go. it also prevents from anything being mapped for short press as well; it becomes a dead button able to do nothing except sleep the phone if the device administrator for Greenify is active and a "hey, do you want to activate it?" nag button otherwise if the button is long-pressed or accidentally long-pressed. this is release, not beta.

This is still happening even after the recent update. This is annoying and I do not like it that Greenify is forcibly latching it onto a hardware button that I'd like to use for other things.
I would understand if this was a Bixby button thing for newer Samsung phones, but this is not a samsung phone.
What if you go to Android Settings > Apps > cog wheel > Assist & voice input, under Assist app, does it say Greenify? If yes, try changing it to None.
Edit: Okay I just found out I can add a search button to the on screen navigation bar (am also on LineageOS 14.1). And indeed, long pressing it turns off the screen and hibernates any apps pending hibernation.
This while Settings > Long-press action on nav-bar is unchecked and Assist app is set to None. Then again, I now realize these settings are all about the home button, and you were talking about the search button. So I'm afraid all I can do is confirm the behaviour you described. I'm using the latest version from Play Store, v3.9.9.1.
I don't have a Screen Off Device Administrator though, but my device is rooted. Also,
with Greenify installed, the search button is unmappable in the system settings

I don't have an option in Android Settings > Buttons to remap the search button, do you? Might be device specific (I don't have one of the phones you mentioned, nor a hardware search button).
