Device: Oneplus X
SW: Oxygen 2.1.3-X
Android: 5.1.1
Firefox: v43
Settings: HW (capacitive)-buttons: enabled
As long as the HW-buttons are enabled in Firefox the menu-button (3 dots) does not show up. As soon as the the on-screen buttons are enabled (and firefox restarted) the menu button shows up, but of course some screen space gets lost ;(.
In another forum a workaround was described that does not work for me either: it should be possible in button-settings to assign "Menu open/close" to a long press or double click action on one of the HW-buttons. Unfortunately I do not have the option "Menu open/close" to choose (german UI).
Any advice?
I had the same problem. Try holding the recents button for more than 1 second.
Thx, according to a thread on oneplus that woud have been working, if I had not changed the button assignment in settings before. It's a bug un Oxygen unfortunately.

Really annoying! Any ideas?
What I have mine set like,
Under softkeys settings:
Softkeys Service >
- Run Service - Unchecked
- Run at Boot - Unchecked
Virtual Home Button >
- Normal/Long Press - Launcher Pro (Or whatever Launcher you prefer)
Physical Home Button >
- Set Single Tap to Softkeys, Double to Launcher
Other settings are tailored to Taste/Preference.
What this will do is disable the Popper button (which I hated) but allow you to see the Softkeys menu whenever you tap the N button, and straight to your homescreen with a double tap. This will disable the DPad thing along with it.
Long press the popper

Hi,
I've tried to do this but now my N button does not perform any action. I used home switcher to make soft keys my default launcher, but the N button is not working at all. It does, however, wake up the NC from sleep, but once the NC is on, the N button stops working. Can you help me with this?
Im on a simple rooted NC (using BN 1.1) with autonooter and I have Zeam and Softkeys installed.
Ok ive remapped menu to APP_SWITCH and now recent apps appear when i press menu. But how do i force the overflow menu (three dots) to appear? I know the samsung apps are capable because if you add qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 to build.prop it shows the navigation bar and all app have a menu in them. But how can i make the menu appear without forcing the navigation bar?
I think i read something about changing "hasPermanentMenuKey" to return as false so that the system automatically display the overflow menus but im not sure how to do that or if thats even correct.
In summary: I want menus to appear in apps.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
bump. Any help?

I remap the menu key to APP_SWITCH too, anyhow, without showing the emulated home/cancel button on screen via qemu.hw.mainkeys=0, the force overflow action menu button just do not appear. If able to trick the app to alway show the action menu button, the remap key may work good, just some app like Whatapps / Facebook / Twitter may not able to access the menu.
Also, looking at keylayout folder, the file Vendor_04e8_Product_7021.kl contain list per below, change of it do have any impact? I tested but it acted weird and no conclusion on this. I did tried to put the Key 704 from RECENTAPPS -> APPLICATION and it launch the voice search when long pressing home button.
Key 704 RECENTAPPS
Key 705 APPLICATION
Key 706 SIP_ON_OFF
Key 707 VOICESEARCH
Key 708 QPANEL_ON_OFF
Any key# to remap the long press of capacitive Menu key to other function? Or long pressing feature is control by software only??

Do you know by any chance how do you do this for kindle fire hd 7 7.3.1 I want to disable nav bar by using qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 but this will get rid of the action bar app Manu as well. This wouldn't be a problem but the LMT launcher app menu button won't work unless the action bar app menu is there. Please help
Hello,
I know this question was asked elsewhere, but I did not find any solution to this.
Is it possible to make the capacitive Menu button function like a multitasking button in Galaxy S2?
If there is one thing I hate, it is having to long press Home to get to the multitasking menu.
I would really love to replace the menu key to do multitasking.
This is not unlike what HTC did with One X where did the opposite and gave an option to make the multitasking key a menu key.
I think by now, most of the applications in play store do have menu option within the app interface following android guidelines.
So, lack of a dedicated menu button should not be an issue.
If anyone knows any custom ROM or any other hack to achieve this, please do let me know.
Cheers.
CM10 -> Settings -> System -> Hardware keys -> Menu key or Menu key (long press) -> Recent apps switcher.
If you select Menu key (short press), I guess you'll ahve to enable the Show action overflow below to have the 3 dots as menu key in apps.
Maybe CM9 does have this too, and maybe AOKP (although I never saw this on ICS AOKP or JB AOKP).
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.
Hi.
I have updated my LG G6 to Android Pie.
Now there is an option to change NavBar from 3 buttons to "Gesture and buttons" (see attached picture).
How "Gesture and buttons" works is when you tap Middle button, it goes to Home screen. When tap and hold, it opens Google Assistant. And if I am in a app, then next to middle button appears a Back button.
As I do not care for Google Assistant, I have disabled it. Now, when I tap and hold Middle button, it does nothing.
Is there an option to disable Back button and change Middle buttons behavior that a tap is Back and tap and hold is Home?
Thank you.
P.S. I am rooted and Magisk installed.
