how can I replace with different short cut in the very bottom of the screen where phone key, application key.
press application, then press the menu key (cant remember what it should be called, but the button left of the home key), then tap edit. drag and drop your apps, you can also remove apps from the bar if you dont need 4 shortcuts.
Thanks for the help

I accidentally put some favorites on my favorites screen and now I am unable to remove the ones I don't want.
Is there a way to remove only one? When I try and drag one to the remove button, the whole screen in included.
Thanks.
I am also having that problem. The thing came with many default favorites I don't care about.
press and hold the contact you want to remove. You can also unitary them in your Google profile if they're a Google contact.
Press and Hold
Press and Hold does not do it. This deletes all.

Sorry, I know there's a way to long press a contact to remove from favorites, but it's not directly from the widget.
Go into the People app (click the triple bar icon on the favorites widget gets you there). Slide to the second option from the left on the bottom slide menu. That gets you to your groups. One of the groups is "Favorites". Long press that and Edit the group. There you can remove people by touching the X.
Is there any way to remap the function of "RecentApps" soft key to "Menu" function?
I almost do not use "RecentApps" and I find the necessity of manual search of "settings" button in each app quite distracting.
I have Xperia Ray smartphone and it has Back button, Home button (long press on this button launches RecentApps and not the useless Google circle pane, like in Nexus, which is not even customizable) and Menu button, which I use VERY often.
In my opinion - this scheme is the most convenient and I'd like to get it in Nexus 7.
Does anybody have an idea how it could be implemented?

Where 'menu' key is applicable, three dots show on the right low corner. If these dots don't appear, I don't think 'menu' key would bring you anywhere anyway (or those three dot's appear anywhere else, like in one of top corners, and pressing menu key would open the menu from those dots anyway, so you'd have to move your fingers a lot)
I have xperia as well (Arc S), and as much as I had to get used to it from beginning, I understand why the choice of these buttons (not every app uses the menu key, so it would be useless in such cases).
I don't know how else are you going to switch apps then, click back every time?

It would be really good if it was always true. Unfortunately, it's not. For example, there is a FBReader app, where you could hide all the status and toolbars and where you just cannot get into menu without separate button. Besides it's always better to have one familiar key than to look for GUI shortcut in each app.
To switch between apps - long press on Home key. It's not so frequently used feature to have a special button for that. IMHO.
Anyway, does anyone know anything about some solution?
Hello Friends
I just want to know how to replace Long Pressing Home Button Shortcut with Nothing
On Long Pressing Home Button it opens Google App
and also when i Long Press Left Navigation Key it Opens all the running Apps along with Google Search Bar

I have tried everything but of no use
Setting- About Phone and enable Advance Mode.
After that goto Setting- Buttons and customize as you want.
Hey, this is the first phone/rom I've seen Titanium Backup missing the menu button (3 dots). I can access preferences by going to "Problems ?" in the Overview page, but it's still really strange. I'm using TB from the play store (with purchased key).
Had the same problem. I just used the GravityBox Xposed module to reassign one of the capacitive buttons as my menu button since I'm used to the old layout on my OPO.
