Hey guys, quick question. I noticed that when you bring up the Recent Apps menu by holding down the home button, upon long pressing on the Clear All button (the three lines icon), System UI asks for superuser privileges. What exactly is being executed here?
I'm running LiquidSmooth (4.2.2).

Is there a way to clear recent apps list without restarting phone?
I'm talking about list, when u press and hold home button.
Hello Forums,
Today I pulled a stupid with my phone (long story). After spending a short time getting my phone back to it's previous state, I noticed I no longer have the button to clear all recent apps at the top right hand corner of the screen when the "Recent Apps" UI is in focus. I know I can swipe them off one by one, but the button that cleared the entire list with one go is much preferred.
My question is how to I re-enable the button to clear the list of recent apps? I've gone through settings 50 times but am apparently missing the option.
ROM: CM10.0.0-stable
Thanks
I recently noticed that the soft button to the left of the home button has started ONLY opeing a search Option were as in the past it would open the menu from with in individual application if you did a long press.
Any way to get it back to opening the application menus?
I'm using OOS 3.2.7 and was wondering is there a way to configure the short press action as I would like to change recent apps menu from short press to long press action as sometimes my palm or fingers touches it and it brings up the recent apps menu which I don't like, I have tried GravityBox but that didn't work, any suggestions?
If you turn on , on screen navigation does it still hinder ?and gets pressed as on screen navigation disables the side buttons ...

Hi All,
In CM13 I grew accustom to long pressing the menu button (square shape on the navigation bar) to switch instantly to my previous app. In Lineage OS 14.1 this shortcut is no longer default (on my device it's a split screen shortcut).
In the settings (, I found a way to reassign the home button's long press action, but I haven't been able to find a way to reassign the menu button's long press action.
Is this possible in stock? Please let me know if I've missed it. Thanks
It's now done by double-tapping the recent apps button (where you assigned it) - a change introduced in Nougat, not just in LOS. Even faster than having to hold down the button, but sure takes some getting used to.
