I noticed I can't post from the device there's no button menu to submit New posts
Long pressing back doesn't work it's almost like need a 3dot menu icon.
Does anyone know how to enable this in order to reply and post on any s7 using the xda app Without Root
I have a 3 dot menu, and a quick reply field at the bottom.

I don't have a native 3dot menu on stock rom. Or know what capacitive buttons to use unlike my s6 had this option

I didn't do anything. I just installed this from the Play Store and the menu was there.

FWIW long press on back button (or multitask button? can't recall) will emulate a "menu" button press for legacy apps
Edit: derp, I didn't see you already mentioned it in OP

I thought this was a pretty cool setup for those of us who need some more homescreen space but still want a clean look.
"Home2 Shortcut" found here https://market.android.com/details?id=com.eikatou0.appspot.home2shortcut
Plus "Simi Folder" found here https://market.android.com/details?id=com.th.android.widget.SiMiFolder
You can setup a folder in Simi Folder, then open Home2 and assign that folder to a certain button sequence.. For example, double home, home + menu, long press search..and a few others.
It opens very quickly and i have no issues with it. I love the added functionality and thought I would share.

Thanks for the tip! I'm an avid user of Simi folder, and this adds yet another great function to it. I would like to use double-tap menu-menu or back-back or search-search. Do you know if this can be done, or if its limited to the options given in Home2?
I'm afraid it does not.. It allows for double home, home menu, home back, and long press search combinations. I agree tho, double back or menu would be nice options to have, but the double home is good enough.

The famous ButtonRemapper is not working on ICS! Not on stock, not on cm9, not on SkyICS! It did work on GB.
I asked before in the forum but sadly none responded me so I did some experiments.
Basically all you have to do is to change the Generic.kl located under /system/usr/keylayout. You open it as a txt and change the line "key 217 SEARCH" to whatever you like (change the "SEARCH" part only). Here are some common ones: POWER, APP_SWITCH (recent apps), CAMERA.
After that save the file and reboot. It should work.
ps. I think why ButtonRemapper doesn't work is because it falsely saves changes to fluid-keypad.kl, a different file under the same directory as Generic.kl. I could be wrong.
I'm using button remaper on my JB port and its working fine.

Just to be clear this does not assign an app to long press search but to give a function. For example if you assign power to the search button when you press it it turns off your screen and when you long press it the power menu pops up.

So lollipop standard behavior of the touch buttons is shoddy to say the least. The recent apps pane is utterly useless, for starters, and I never use the dual window feature.
I'm looking for a way to modify two behaviors: I'd like for my "square" button to function as the menu key upon short press, and a long press of the back button to kill the current app. Obviously I accomplished this in the past on the original G Flex using Gravity Box, but without a working method to install Xposed, I don't see this happening in the near future.
Has anyone had any luck mucking around with system files to change the behavior of the buttons?
im trying to add a menu button as well
GravityBox is working on 5.1.1, XPosedv74 SDK22.
not all GB function is working on G Flex2 , but function to assign a special action to the Nav key is working. eg i'm using double tap Home to take screenshot, double tap Recent to sleep etc.

Sometimes we need some scientific calculation functions, such as sin,cos,tan,exp,power,log,etc.
But we shall fail to find these functions when the stock calculator app is in standard mode.

If we rotate screen of our mate 9 phone to landscape mode, the stock calculator app will become a scientific calculator soon, which supports those advanced functions.
Touch and hold the settings wheel in notification panel,it starts to spin

Coming from a note 4 so this might not be much of a secret lol, but if you double tap the recent apps button on the navbar (the square), it will open the last used app.

Thanks for the calculator trick!
So a while back they put out how to take off bixby from launching from the button. So now I don't even know how to get into bixby if I wanted to turn it back on or use bixby. Does anybody know a way back to bixby?
Maybe try pressing and holding. From there, go full screen and go to settings.
Did you set it for Hi Bixbi commands? If so, just call it there.
nope none of that works. I disabled the button press the last time I was in it.
Stock launcher, swipe left.
