back button inconvenient - LG Optimus G Pro

hi the lg optimus g pro has the back button on the left side but I am not a lefty so it's very invconvenient for me to reach my finger over to the left side to press back button especially on a big phone, is there a way i can switch it to the right side?

This isn't really a great one handed device anyways... I believe there are button remapping apps... If not jus use xda search... Good luck

If you're rooted, there are several xposed modules out there that you can use to remap your buttons. For example, I use gravity box.

Question about home button

Does anybody know if its possible to program the home so a double tap brings up messaging and a long press brings up Google now? If so how could I do that?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
If you are running stock TW then the short answer would be no. If you are using a custom launcher like Apex or Nova there are settings in the launcher behavior section where you can tweak to perform actions.
yeah, it's impossible on touchwiz,
I don't know about the customizability of the button on launchers, since i don't use them

If you hold down the menu button it'll bring up Google now. Unless you're in an app then it'll pop up the search engine. You're on your own on the messaging one tho lol. Double taping home takes you to S. Voice.

Flashlight

Looking for a good flashlight app. The G3 doesn't have one built in...

Super-Bright LED Flashlight is a good one to use
If you are rooted look into the g3 tweaks box. It has a flashlight in it that you can set on your power menu
If you install battery widget reborn it has a touch app so dual purpose for me
I use this one and it has widget.

I use that one or if you use Xposed, there is an option within G3 Tweakbox to add flashlight to powermenu

You can install Tiny Flashlight
and then install the QLight plugin
which allows you to toggle the light directly from QSlide apps in the status bar.
Quick torch. And you can access it in the quick circle window if you are using the case

I use G3 tweaks and set the volume down button to toggle the flashlight with the screen off
I personally love the CM torch app, attached below. It has a simple design, which I really like.
Warm regards,

is awesome! works with the quick case too
I use Teslaled.
It has a widget you can put right into the home bar or where ever so you can turn on with a single click. I've been using this one for years.

Cm flash like with updated material is nice..... Download the cm apps app and download the app within that app lol
Use the Xposed torch, is a module for exposed you will love this one.
LG G3
Going through a lot for a simple led switch to use a flashable cm mod or an xposed module unless you already have xposed.

First of all, hello all. Just got my G3 2 days ago, and still kinda just lurking. Back to the topic at hand...
I use "Shake" I have it set so side to side shaking opens the camera, and up and down shaking turns on/off the LED. It's awesome!

[Q] Settings\Display\Home touch buttons - Settings ???

What happened to the Settings Button that you could add to the Buttons across the Home Screen "Settings\Display\Home touch buttons" Settings Button "III" (line are sideways and not straight up)
This button is not available with the G4, I have apps that utilize that button.
Does anyone have any info on this or how you might be able to add this??
Thank you
Try holding down the recent button.

I tried what you had said, that take you to the Phone Settings Menu. I have always in the past used Enhanced Email for my email program. With that app installed there is no way to get into the settings menu. I think that there are a few other apps that you can't get into the Setting Menu for too, but that is my main one.
That's the "info" icon that you are describing. In Android 5.1, this was replaced by the 3 dots icon, typically located on the top right of the app that you're trying to access the menu on.

Yep, holding down the recent apps button will give you the menu option in every app.

On screen nav buttons

The note 4 had the ability to have movable on screen nav buttons, can't seem to find this function on the 5.
Anyone know where they are, or did they deep six them?
