How to get Pie style power menu? - HTC U12+ Questions & Answers

Hi all,
I've received the Pie update, and with some tweaks I'm kind of satisfied.
My current problem is that HTC managed to include the new volume menu (the one that shows on the side of the screen when you press a volume button) but somehow forgot to add the similarly styled power menu.
Anybody knows of any alternative to getting that power menu?
Thank you all for your time!

Unfortunately not.

Hi,
In this menu, a small toothed wheel underneath, which develops all the functions of sound.

Sorry, you misunderstood me.
I'm not interested in the sound menu.
I want the power menu to be in similar style to the sound menu.
See the attachments for reference.

One touch _ power off

POWER OFF​
Only touch that you have turned off the screen. Small and useful software for two versions : Blue & Red Power icon.​
Little confusing. Is this for turning off device or screen?
screen, I think...
yep it is working fine! that was the only thing i had missing on my homepage.
Many thanks for the cab
I installed the red button cab and cannot find any app anywhere.
It ain´t in the start/programs.
Also did a softreset.
How to add?

well if you are adding a shortcut in your homepage...clickon programs and then should be there under power off
Hi,
screen off can be done by pressing one key
But real power off for the hole device would be an improvement because now you need to press long and then choose shut down
any plans to offer that funcionality to the good looking red button
Cheers

[Q] Edit Contacts / GPS errors

Hey guys, so I have a fresh CM10 running and I have a few questions
This may sound ridiculous, but how in the world do I edit / remove a contact? I've long-pressed, swiped, double tapped, nothing opens a menu, and there is no menu button?
Secondly - I have noticed since installing CM10 my GPS doesn't work, at all. Any advice on where to go with that?
Bump
Bump. Surely someone else has had this error it being the most popular rom?

I'm not on CM, i'm on AOKP but the process should be similar. Contacts>(choose one)>Options key (Usually remapped to right most capacitive key)
What ROM did you come from? What build are you on now? What all did you wipe before and after you flashed? I hope I can somewhat help you!
O wait some ROMs have remapping and don't have a menu button stock. Go dig in settings/ ROM controls and try to remap a button to "Menu". Maybe that will work?

I can't seem to find any rom controls. This is kind of silly though I mean a menu button should be present in every menu.... Kinda disappointed that I have to do this with such a well known rom.
I came from a fresh root and wipe / unlock.

I am on PACman which has a base of CM10.
Try going to settings -> System -> Hardware keys -> enable custom actions and it should give you the option to set up a long press remap for a menu option.

There is no "Hardware keys" section, or custom actions from what I've seen. I've been digging consistently too : /

Let me flash it real quick and see what's going on with this.
EDIT: Flashing now
EDIT2: You say there isn't a "hardware keys" section under system? I beg to differ. I found it first attempt.
open your settings
you have wireless netwroks at the top of your settings
under the wireless network section you should have interface
in the interface section is system
click that
the bottom option is hardware keys
click that and have fun.

THANK YOU!
So much. Good grief ! Why is this not set by default?? I can just set it to "Home Long Press" and boom, done. So simple, should be on by default and clearly I am blind btw. lol

I understand. All AOSP ROMs are completely custom to the user, meaning they can program what buttons they want to do what. Which is why it's not set as default. And yes, you are blind.
Also, edit your title and put solved in it. That way someone doesn't come in here and try and answer this a month down the road, when it's already been answered.

Anyone Else not able to Simulate a "Menu Button" press?

I cannot simulate a menu button press on this phone. Blu's ESL customer support didn't help at all.
On the Note 4, you hold down the recent apps button and the phone treats it like a menu button press. I use a few somewhat legacy apps and not having menu press completely breaks those apps.

Current apps should not need a menu button. However, if you have old outdated apps you can simulate it with the (weirdly named) built in "suspend button." Settings > Advanced settings > Suspend option. Enable that and it will overlay a round button on the screen. When you need the menu button tap the on-screen button. It will expand and show more buttons. The button with three dots is the menu button. If you'd prefer to hide the "suspend button" so that it's not always visible you can do so by long pressing on it. You can unhide it in the notification panel.
Awesome, that works, but what a sad work around to an issue solved so much more efficiently on other devices.

Sad indeed. I will continue to poke around for another solution to this, with the ultimate goal of remapping that recent apps button to a menu. I am not sure this will be possible without root access though. Good news is there is another thread here on XDA with a bounty/reward of around $200 at the moment for anyone who can get a workable root and TWRP recovery goin for this phone. :fingers-crossed:

True, but as I said no current app should need a menu key. Most new Android phones have no menu key because it's not needed. I have about 200 apps installed and only one needs the menu key workaround because it hasn't been updated in years.

Titanium Backup menu access

This may be a silly question. But... How do I access the settings menu or batch actions while navigation gestures are enabled?

Yes I have found work around like using navigation buttons and long pressing recents button. But was just curious as to why there isn't an actual button on the app like three dots overflow or something. Thought maybe there was a settings in OOS I was missing. I still would like to hear from others to see if they have same issue as in mu screenshot.

Free TiBa 8.31 version
Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk
I also have 8.31 (but Pro version). I use navigation gestures and have NO menu button....
I have the same issue as well. I think it's a bug. I've had this issue before too and it went away automatically. The menu button just appeared all of a sudden
I'm on Pro 8.3.1 (N5X and GZosp Pie with Oneplus-like gestures). No menu, neither in 8.2.2.
Solution: tab Overview >problems >settings.
Sorry, it's mentioned in #5 yet.

Change setup for 3 bottom button??

Can the setup for these be change? I like it to behave like my MI A3
Did you actually check your phone settings before asking?
You should find such a setting.
Or you can just change the main system launcher and you'll get 3-button nav bar.

I think I expressed my self to short.
Question is not if I can get the 3 buttons, but if I can change how they BEHAVE, I like the to act like MI A3 (the 3 buttons act differently on those two)

what is the exact behaviour you expecting ?
do you mean the recent and back button swapping ? or ?
