I recently updated to MIUI 12.5.1.0(RJGMIXM) via OTA on my POCO X3 NFC (stock ROM), and found that the recent apps button has stopped working. I tried going to Settings -> Additional Settings -> Button Shortcuts, and changed the setting for 'Menu' to "Show Menu", then back to "Show recent apps tray" with no success. Even when set to "Show Menu", nothing happens in any app when hitting that button. I also have the accessibility shortcuts button visible, and tried using the 'Recents' button there, but nothing happens. Has anyone else run into this issue, and have they had any success fixing this?
Thanks!
SOLVED! - I had disabled the built-in POCO launcher in favor of the NOVA Launcher. Apparently, in 12.5, the recent apps functionality is reliant on the POCO launcher, and so enabling that seems to have resolved the issue. Hopefully this helps anyone having a similar issue

Hello!
I installed the latest nightly of cm11 which is offered in this forum. Before then i used the cm10.1-andromadus-rom. I had always good experience with the Nova Launcher, so i plan to stay with it. On cm10.1 i used to assign "Long-Press Menu Button" -> App Overview. I think I managed that through the Nova Launcher options. Obviously since cm11 (or kitkat? – i don’t know) there are similar options under "Settings -> device -> buttons". Now there are two problems:
1. Settings for buttons made in Nova Launcher arent’t considered, because they’re "overruled" by cm11 options.
2. In CM11 button settings there is no option for "App overview".
-> So, i can’t manage to get this function assigned to "Long-press menu button".
Does anyone have a solution?

I'm having the same problem--was wondering if you found a solution, or if anyone else had a suggestion. I'd like my menu (long press) to activate the notification window, but the CM11 button assignments overrule it. Very troublesome.
Thanks in advance.
Hi.
I have a strange problem. I have FRD-L19 for about 1 week now. I noticed twice that the settings app does not open when I try to start it from the homescreen (I'm using nova launcher)
When I touch the app icon screen gets white for a split second and than back to homescreen. I can touch the icon as often as I want, the settings app won't open. When I try to open settings app via novas app drawer the app opens. After that it is also possible to start via homescreen. I haven't tried with emui launcher yet.
Has anyone noticed a similar behavior?
Try a hard reboot. Hold power button till device reboots. I notice weird issues sometimes and the power menu reboot option does not do a hard reboot. Seems more like a soft reboot.
I know previous versions of Nova used to messe up with Emui4.
Have you tried using it without Nova to see the settings app behaviour?
Definitely an issue with the launcher, I've never had an issue with Action Launcher 3 if you don't want to use the stock launcher?
I want to change the behavior of the long-press on the home button so it doesn't try to launch assistant. I'd like it to do nothing.
I tried disabling assistant, but this just displays an obnoxious banner telling me to turn on assistant.
I did find this app that allows you to remap the button to all sorts of things, but would prefer something that doesn't need all those permissions.
This is with 3-button navigation enabled as I'm using Nova Launcher on Android 10. Phone is not rooted.
[edit] and of course, I found the answer immediately after posting the question:
Settings > Apps & Notifications > Default apps > Assist app - change it to "None"

Only thing is if you use the "Squeeze" for Google Assistant it disables that too. Which is good or bad depending on how you feel about GA. I just got mine today so I'm still playing with things. Might delete later,IDK.

After update to miui 12.2.5 when I open recent apps menu is always open. See video.
I've tried to restart phone and change launcher back to stock but it's not helped.
Any solution?
In apps i cannot click anything that appears right under the status bar, whether its the search bar, sidebar expand button or options, its all broken. Quick settings work fine though.
I rebooted my phone but that didnt fix the issue. Has anyone else experienced this?
The weirdest part is how it works on certain types of user interfaces. In settings you can click on the search icon at the top that brings up the search menu, but now the search bar that is active does not respond to any touch inputs.
Found the issue!
Energy Bar (curved edition) drawing other apps caused the problem. It worked completely fine in android 11, but it seems that android 12 just broke that app in particular. Disabling "draw over other apps" permission for it fixed it.
I hope this helps anyone having a similar problem.
