Any way to get this? I don't like have to use two steps to kill an app. A single long press would be nice.

Check out this app. It does what you want.

What file contains the softkey mappings, and can it be changed without root?
System_usr_keylayout_generic.kl
And
No.

Thanks.
And,
crap.
So...just checking; I'm looking to swap the "recent apps" and "back" buttons, which are off-display keys, of course. Don't suppose that's in some other file that I can change without root...somehow?
And if I really can't change them, how are after-market keyboards possible?
Keyboards are software.
You're looking to map hardware.
You need root to do that.
There are very easy Play Store apps that (once you're rooted) make it easy (I.e ButtonRemapper)

But of course I can't do that now, given that I can't even RUU back to 1.85.
Man, I know I have short thumbs and all, but does no one else have trouble using the phone right-hand only?
Dude please: I despise the power button. It doesn't click right. I came from a S3 but left it because I hated the home button. Now I found this phone that I completely love,but I hate that button. What we need is a dev to get Sweep2Wake running like on the Tegra model

Yeah the power button could be more clicky. It is hard to press. What i did was flash cm9/10 and use volume wake. WAY better.
The HTC M8 is my first phone without the physical home/menu/back buttons on the bottom of the phone.
I find the multitask button totally useless (what's wrong with holding down menu until it appears like my S3 and S4?) and I'd rather have the menu key there and not take up any valuable screen real estate. I'm also used to having the back button on the right and the menu on the left, can any of this be changed?
These kind of changes will require a true root solution, but will very much be possible. Just need S-Off to achieve it! Temp root won't do the trick.

Do you have in mind a complete custom Rom? Or can a root-only setting just be modified?

Nah just a modded framework-res/systemui would be all that's needed. But I'm sure entire ROMs will pop up with the ability to change on the fly.

Ok, I'm not interested in getting custom Rom's they're great but too much of a headache sometimes. I just want to adjust these settings

The button to the left of the physical button on the phone. (I'm not 100% it is called the menu button, but that is what I am going to refer it as.)
I just upgraded from the GS3 and am a bit frustrated. The button now goes to the task manager. I have to press and hold to get the menu appear. I hate this! Does anyone know of a way to get it back to normal? :crying:
It is now the recent apps button.

That's how Android buttons are supposed to be.... Recent apps, home, back, in that order.

I know it has only been a day, but have you heard of a way to change the function?

I swear it wasn't like this on the Galaxy S3
It wasn't like this on the gs4 either ....give it a few days for some of the apps to be updated for the s5.

You can press and hold on the task button and it will trigger the menu.

It wasn't like that on the s2, s3, or s4
To be honest, I prefer the new layout on the s5. It was a pain having to hold the home button to get to recent app before

I was super happy when I saw the option to long-press recent apps for the menu key. Hopefully later on we get to remap the key to menu in ROMs like CM but if not I'm fine with it. I do wish it were still the menu key by default, though.
Hi, I'm looking for an app that is able to enable the softkey with just a click of button and lock the capacitive button? Is there such an app? It's much like the one plus 2 which has a way to easily switch between the 2
there probably is but most likely you will need to be rooted

I'm rooted and willing to try any possible app.
