Yesterday I removed navbar using "qemu.hw.mainkeys=1" and installed LMT.
Today I noticed, that the menu button is gone both in chrome and chrome beta.
Other apps work fine.
Does Anyone have an idea how to bring it back?

It's because you've told the phone you have a hardware button, so it'll remove the overflow button in (some) apps
Is there a way to hide navbar and keep the software "menu" button?

I believe Gravity Box allows you to remove the emulated hardware keys and adds the 3-dot menu key to almost(?) all apps.

Is there a mod that would disable the menu button on the phone and add the menu button inside the apps instead?
No. There are mods to enable software buttons. Each app is created to utilize hardware software menu buttons. In order for the app to show a menu button the app would need to create the.

If you want the software menu button to appear on-screen where would it go?
ICS solves this problem by having a flexible navigation bar where a menu button would appear if the application called for it. So if you want a software menu button, there are mods to enable a navigation bar.
I dont much like physical Home button so I am thinking how to make possible long-press Menu button to act as pressing Home button?
It can be done in Nova launcher but it is ok just in launcher but not in other applications.

The best and easier way to do is using xbuttonactions (xposed module). It can change long press action, double tap action of home menu and back button. Very flexible.

Is there any way to change the capacative touch buttons, without rooting, especially the "menu button".
On my S4, the menu button did exactly that, open up a menu where one was available. And holding the home button would display open apps.
Whereas now holding the home button opens Google Now (I have the Now Launcher) and the menu button shows the recent apps.
This happens regardless if TouchWiz or Now launchers are used.

Yes. Download All in One Gestures here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.phoenixstudios.aiogestures
Go to the Hard Keys tab and customize them as you'd like. Tap the Plus button at the bottom to add the Recents key so you can customize it too.

So I'm able to get the home button to work as I want.
Just the "recent apps" button is still not giving me a menu button, as there is no option to do so in All in one Gestures :/

Sorry, but I wasn't clear. Did you try to long-press the recent button? On the S5 that opens menus...

On S6 long press recent button gives you split screen (multi-window) selections!

Well that's silly. I never use split screen, but everyone uses menus... O-well. Thanks!
Can any1 tell me where's the settings options to press/click when u r in a app or home screen? Normally just either holding recent or back button.
Are you talking about the menu button? That's been depreciated for a while. The few apps that still need it have an extra button on the navbar. Home menu stuff is accessed through long presses.

Damn, this sucks. Yes, 3 dot menu button. I have an app doesn't show menu button.
For home screen long press all those 3 nav buttons, none working. Except, long press home button, Google now pops up.

I don't know about the app. I suppose you could use something like Button Savior to create a menu button.
What are you trying to do with your home screen? Try long pressing an empty space to get launcher options.

Yep, thought about button savior. Not much options.
Shoot, wish there's 3 dot menu options available at all times without rooting the phone. Bummer.

Wrong thread?
There is no option to switch the recent and back buttons. It will have to be a mod that changes the code. The buttons are physically visible and can't be changed. Internally it can, however you will have to except the recent apps button will be back and vice versa.
There's always Button Mapper:
