[Q] softkey mod with stock rom - Nexus 5 Themes and Apps

I just moved from an SGSIII to the Nexus 5 and I miss the menu button, is there a softkey mod to get extra keys, like menu and search (ideally just menu)?
I see its with some custom roms but I want to avoid those, I am rooted and unlocked just would prefer to avoid custom recovery and/or roms.
Thanks!

Certainly you is your switch you not let go until you have :silly:

I've been thinking about this as well.
It would be awsome if you could automate it so it changes dpi and ui when you connect MHL adapter to external screen.
Yes. ui switcher is really the best mod on galaxy note 2.

it works... I had to modify system ui to enable nav bar (not included by default)
tablet mode doesn't works because needed other modifications to include tablet resources
edit: Can you add your module in xposed repository?

[Q] Double tap to wake [ Stock Lollipop ]

Is double tap to wake missing in stock LRX21T build Lollipop? Or, am I missing something?
You're missing the fact that no custom ROM/custom kernel feature such as the one we're talking about has ever been implemented into Google factory images. Where have you been in the past six years?
I use sykopompos porting (there is a 3d on XDA) with defconoi kernel & synapse tool and I have double tap 2 wake. Ī dont know if this kernel works fine on Factory image

[Layers] Themes Thread (ROOT)

Let's use this thread to show/discuss layers themes and how they work with HTC 10!
LAYERS DESIGNED FOR HTC 10 Or by people with our device are in the 2nd post!
1. Here's the layers app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lovejoy777.rroandlayersmanager
2. You then need to install a layer theme from the playstore, go into the Layers app and apply SOME of the theme. Don't apply framework or system ui. Sadly, these won't work on HTC 10 at the moment. Choose the other stuff. Or, apply what you want and see if you get a bootloop. Fixes for that are below.... Feel free to apply any APP THEMES like themes for Chrome, Google Now, etc as those should all work with any device.
If you want to use a 'settings' layer you have to flash this in recovery FIRST https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424946196
Thanks to @maurydes for the zip! (NOTE: The icons won't change, but other elements will)
3. Reboot.
BTW the layers app might fc at first. Also, It requires root.
PROBLEMS? BOOTLOOP?
If you get a bootloop/constant fc after installing a layer, go into TWRP and go to advanced then file manager and delete the overlays folder here: Go to /system/vendor/overlay/
YOU NEED TO MOUNT SYSTEM in TWRP first.
So far it seems applying a FRAMEWORK will bootloop you. We're better off applying 'settings' (f;ash the above zip first) and specific app overlays (like hangouts, GNL, Gmail, etc) until a themer makes a framework layer we can use.

THE BELOW SETUP REQUIRES SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
unzip the file move the unzipped folder to - sd card/internal storage - Overlays - Backup -
then go into layers manager - backup & Restore - select the htc10layers file -
after restoring without a reboot you could go back in to uninstall overlays and see the list of overlays and remove if you don't want any...

I had no idea that " Layers " would work on Sense based ROM's. I thought that was for AOSP nexus ROM's only ?
Wow..will give it a try.. Thanks

Well it doesn't work the way we want it to sadly. As I said in the OP, we can't apply framework and probably not systemUI either (I'm still testing themes though) so we're left with theming apps like in my chrome and play music screenshots.
I hope we can find some overlays that are fun and work with our phone but for god's sake don't apply a FULL layers theme and expect your phone to boot! Let me know what you guys find.
Not work for system apps but work for Google app,

No,no theme in the playstore but i have done layers theme for oneplus 2 see http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/themes-apps/maurydes-theme-t3185798 and nexus also

Google now?
I tried it out just to see what happens and didn't boot loop but the layer I tried didn't work quite right either. Left me with a plain white, no text settings page.
AZURE FREE seems to be pretty compatible with the 10 so far. Some themes seem to be more compatible than others. Give it a shot if you want to try some free themes out and see if they work!
Hay maurydes. Glad to see you in here. Loved what you did for us on the opt ??

Does Android Pay still work with layers installed?
That's a great find, thanks for sharing! Loving Coalfield on the HTC 10, wish there was a way to make framework as well.

Yeah the settings layers won't work really. They weren't designed for our settings. You can try WHITE background layers for settings and it will change the switch colors, but nothing else till we get support from a theme dev.

[GUIDE] [OSB] Disable Capacitive Button And Enable On Screen Button

Today I just want to share how to disable capacitive button and enable On Screen Button on Redmi 3 Pro CM14.1 Official, but this mod should work for any devices and any ROM.
I was try with some devices and its work
REQUIREMENTS
-ROOT ACCESS
-File Manager (ex. LCG X-Plore or Root Explorer)
Step 1
- edit build.prop and add line
"qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" without quotes
- open file manager and go to dir. system/usr/keylayout/generic.kl
Edit with text editor the file "Generic.kl" and find
key 158 BACK
key 139 MENU
key 172 HOME
key 217 SEARCH
Edit these line to
#key 158 BACK
#key 139 MENU
#key 172 HOME
#key 217 SEARCH
*Yes just add "#" symbol to the start of these lines* and then SAVE and Reboot.
I recommend to use X-Plore by Lonely Cat Games

yep, it's worked on CM13 or even CM14, but in Custom ROM like RR, you just put "#" on system/usr/keylayout/ft5x06_720p.kl
You should add it, in generic.kl it doesn't work for me or i'm mistake?

I extracted them some months ago. Here's the thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/themes-apps/stock-wallpapers-notifications-t3400281
I extracted them from framework-res.apk OR the launcher apk. Not sure. Currently not on a stock rom. So If you want to know the exact source, attach "framework-res.apk" + the launcher apk. I'll decompile them & find out.
