Omg this is the best idea I've ever seen on any mobile forum...
Flash on if home button is pressed for say 2 seconds and screen/phone remains in sleep/lock status, ingenious.

Doesn't seem to work on my device... Already tried to reboot / reinstall :/
if you want to disable home button waking device use root browser lite go to system/usr/keylayout/ gpio-keys.kl you will have to open it as a text file then with inbuilt text editor. go down to bottom were it says (key 172 home wake ) and just delete the word WAKE then press menu and save and exit . reeboot phone and then the home button will be disabled... :thumbup:

Hi guys,
Why don't just do this manually ?
1) Open Root Explorer
2) Navigate to: /system/usr/keylayout/
3) Press 'Mount R/W'
4) Long hold 'gpio-keys.kl' and choose "Open in Text Editor"
5) Remove "WAKE" from the line "172 HOME WAKE"
6) Back out, Save, Reboot

Works on MIUI roms
Some roms (like sling) have a very useful but useless feature, but I don't know the name! I'm looking for the name to see if I can find more information about it and how to edit it.
The thing is, when you press one of the 3 virtual keys and hold it and swipe up to the screen, this feature comes, but only showing Google now and quick memo, which can be found in other shortcuts as well, so I would like to know the name of the feature, and if there is some way of add of edit apps or shortcuts there.
Thanks in advance!
Here is a picture of the feature

got it, it's called "Navigation Ring". thread closed
hey!
does anybody else have TWO emoji buttons in the bottom row? one on the left, between 123 and [space], and one on the far right, that sometimes changes to a Return arrow.
it's SUPER annoying. I keep hitting it instead of 123, and deleting stuff I accidentally wrote there is even more annoying because backspace is somewhere else than expected in the ****ing emoji tab.
driving me nuts. any ideas?
this only happens on this device. everything fine on my lg g4.
happens with Stock AND Cyanogenmod Nightly. which is awesome btw.
SwiftKey user here! But I don't have your issue. I changed the Emoji button to a long press of the enter button. Have you tried this? Deleting and installing again SwiftKey?
I'm a noob compared to the people here on xda, so what I'm writing is not guaranteed to work =p
Wanted to give you a feedback anyway

how did you change that? it changes automatically for me, depending on the app I use, which is very annoying... I can't find a checkbox..?
In personalization (I think, I have it in Italian on my phone), check the "enter button" box, it has a short description under it that should be something like "long press for Emoji"

On my oneplus one I had Nova launcher installed. When I pressed the left button I used to have a menu with 4 options ( wallpapers,manage apps,nova options,and options phone). Can I get this on the oneplus 3 ?
I also want to know if this is possible?
Same, i tried Gravitybox but it buggs out for me, would like to know if someone found a solution
Would also love this!

This app already tried...not succeeded to get a menu function on one of buttons...
Somebody tried xposed module additions, it seems to work with this,to change the recent hardware button to menu...
Someone tried this ?
No solution ?
I would like to have button for menu.
Following. I too would like more options for button mapping.
Hi, i use a dasaita px3 with android 7.1.2. In the packed, there was a canbus for wheels controls. So some Buttons aren't really usefull and some of these are duplicated. I would like to dedicated One of these Buttons at the "return Button". I think that in android system is important this Button.
Someone could help me? There is a program inside the default setting, but i don't know how use It!
