[Q] Nexus 5 problem with software - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys.
I have problem with my nexus 5. When I press the back button switches to previous open applications instead of take me to a screen of launcher.
I am running stock 4.4.2 rom with root and xposed framework.
Is there a solution?
Thanks

i have the same problem!!!!when i am for example at facebook and i press back button sometimes it will open a app that i have used before instead of going me back to home screen!!!any solution??

It's an Android bug afaik which has already been discussed here. No workaround exists I believe.

Same happens to me sometimes

Back goes back. Press home to go the launcher.

This is a known issue. I'm sure I've seen other reports on the Google AOSP issue tracker but this is the first I hit today: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=63570
Yes, you could use the home button instead but it's also a bug that needs fixing.

Press the power button and the volume down button for a few seconds,,,,,,and it takes a screenshot.
The softkey was removed from the navigation bar in the builds , but still works if you do what i said ,
Hope that helps..
Try also pressing power key for 3 seconds or so and see the menu if it contains screenshot option or no
Also try setting in aokp if you can change one of softkeys to screenshot again

It wasn't removed from aokp because that button never existed in aosp. The screen shot button is part of touch wiz. As others have said just use the native android method of pressing and holding power and vol simultaneously for about one second.
good day.
Yay thanks

Annoying Google Now.. Help needed

Whenever I open camera or MxPlayer or few apps, I can't go back to the home screen by pressing the back button. If I press the back button, Google now is getting opened and If I press again the back button, the same camera or previous app is opening.. This is very annoying.. Each and every time I need to go to the recent apps and clear it in order to close the camera app or get back to the home screen..
Is there anyone having the same issue? Kindly help me to fix it.. I have rooted my phone and using few xposed tweaks..
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance...

Try disabling "Google Search" from the "Settings->Apps" menu.

I am on multirom as secondary rom. It worked fine at first boot, but when i tried to reboot the device this morning, it went stuck on bootanimation. Does it depend on multirom? I heard other forum members have the same problem but nobody answered...

Yep even if I don't see if OP uses a modified boot.img.

Get Back button from ogapps in Play Store. Since I don't like physical buttons, the home button was annoying me. Back button lets u choose which button u want to permanently display anywhere as it's a floating button. So I've put the home button at the lowest right corner possible in the lowest size and margin. Does not affect my usage at all and very practical.
U can also try Simple Controls if u want all on screen buttons.

Yeah I installed back button, as you, till yesterday [emoji4] .
Only thing that bothers me is that the home button (or the the buttons : home, recent app, back) are always hiding some part of my screen, for example when I use the keyboard.[emoji16]
It would have been perfect if I could place them at the same place of other Android devices : at the extreme bottom, below the dock...

Do you have root? If so just install gravitybox and enable navigation bar.
Another easy solution is to use swipe navigation from play store, it doesn't add any button but allows you to use a simple swipe to emule the home - back- recent button

First of all you have to install xposed framework, it isn't an app which you can find on play store, read carefully this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-samsung-lollipop-t3113463 . Than you can download gravitybox, enable the navigation bar and also be able to tweak a lot of things like size, color, actions etc. Note that the soft keys will cover the close all button in recents (in portrait) , some parts of the camera, and cause s-voice settings to force close. But luckily there is a workaround also for this, you can download "hideable nav bar" from xposed and with a simple tap you will be able to hide the nav bar when you want.
There is also another way to do it, it's simpler but you won't have the possibility to hide the nav bar and you won't have configurable options.
Just go to system/ (with es file explorer for example) and add this line to build.prop file:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
Save and reboot and magically your nav bar will appear
Then, just to complete the opera, there is also a way to disable the capacity Samsung buttons, I'll explain how to do it if you want.
Let me know if one of these solutions work fine for you

Hi,
I read carefully ask you wrote, thanks.
First of all I need to tell you that I have a Samsung tab s2 but the forum is not very active and this is why I also posted my answer here[emoji87] [emoji6] .
Anyway I discovered the possibilities of xposed, Odin (this is my first Samsung device! ) very nice! [emoji4]
But I couldn't flash the "good version of xposed..."
This is all I did :
I was rooted and with 5.02, I flashed last Canadian ota 5.11 via Odin (no ota for the moment for France..), installed last twrp for 5.11, flashed the BigBot96 custom Rom 5.11 (deodexed) + its kernel, downloaded and tried to flash in recovery the file : xposed v71 sdk 21 arm arter 97-v6 exynos.zip...
The error is:
"Wrong sdk version, 22 expected 21-21
Please download the correct package for your platform/Rom
E: error executing updater binary in zip sdcard/download.....
Same with the new v75 versions[emoji22]

Without root there's the Simple Control app, but you need a third party home launcher like Nova so that you can manipulate the home dock icons.

if you don't want to press the physical home button you can you use "easyHome Samsung" app from the play store. Simply touch the home button.... it uses the finger print sensor.
