Changing setting of sensor keys? - Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers

I just installed unofficial LineageOS Nougat 7.1.1.
Okay, it is just the Lineage ROM for the Mi5, but it works nearly perfect.
The only thing which really annoys me is the setting of the sensor keys which seems impossible to change.
Right on is back.
Left one is menu.
I would like it to be the other way round...
Can anybody help?

Auto Rotate HTC Touch HD Screen

I have found an application that automatically rotates the HTC touch HD screen. Works 100% perfect.
I'll try this.Thanks in advance!!!!!!
gsen is an old application already tested many times here!
Conclusion is: the best rotate screen was manually rotate with "press and hold call button"!
BTW, you can found gsen latest version here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=403939

In registry, find:
HKLM\System\GDI\Rotation\HideOrientationUI and change the value to 0. No soft reset required. Just go to Settings - Buttons and find the "Rotate Screen"

[Q] ROM/APP: permanent nav buttons on screen?

My home, back and recent buttons on the phone are broken. I hpermanent ave root but that's not the reason.
So, is there an app or Rom which can put those buttons permanent on bottom of screen, and then make the rest of the screen the display. So it should lower the height of the viewport, and put those buttons in the remaining space below.
I've tried "button savior" app, but I don't want those buttons as an overlay.
The screen on the phone is big enough to use some of it as a permanent button area I think.

most aosp roms and some sense roms have the option to show the "nav bar" at the bottom, some even have the option to change the colour of the buttons

Try the ParanoidAndroid ROM.
You can enable those buttons in there and you can even customize them exactly the way you want them to be! (the size, color, etc...) :victory:

Sorry for not replying for so long.
Those buttons are enabled by default, so that shouldn't be a problem. The latest version of this ROM can be found here. However, why didn't you just have a look yourself? It can be found pretty easily in the Original Development section

[REQ] looking for screen turn on app.

hello
iam looking for application turn on the screen by remapping the hard capacitive keys. not the sound rocker or the power buttons.
any idea please?
i tried most of applications and xposed modules but not work, also all the application using the sensor, turn on the screen by swapping only which make the screen on all the time whenever the sensor moved front of any thing.
also application with turn on by taping the sensor is ok for me.
could you suggest guys?
thanks in advance for all

Problem with pawitp AOSP 6.0.1 buttons issue

Let me start off by saying that this rom is so amazing. Brought back my galaxy grand duos to life. Huge difference from stock 4.2.2!!
One issue I noticed though: Press & hold home button activates recent apps AND now on tap at the same time!

and the question/problem is?
Like I said, press and hold home button is assigned for both recent app switcher AND now on tap. Which makes using now on tap impossible.

Make another 2 post and you'll be able to post/ask in the rom thread. You may have a better answer there than here, as Im not using the rom, so Im not able to provide better solution than this.
In cm12.1 under setting,there's button tab which have an option to set the button assign. See if your rom have the same option.
Edited: I just found this post, will gibe you the answer for your question.

Thanks, that was helpful.
AOSP does not have an option to change buttons. I love AOSP simplicity but the menu button is pretty useless on marshmallow. I'm trying to figure out a way to make it function as a recent app switcher instead.

I believe I read it in the aosp 6.0 thread about disabling the now on tap function, in Google setting I think. Check the link I gave, probably couple post before or after it.

Never had an issue, just practice getting used to the timing
If you want your screenshot on the desktop (and you use Windows), just try my adbgrab.exe (in the sig).
Code:
C:\>adbgrab.exe shot.png

Here is a great article on it... using the palm swipe looks like it will solve your problem. Check out scroll capture also, that is cool.

No, they have the palm swipe only as far as I know, although you have to activate it in settings first, for it to work... you can try an app to create a macro, (great feedback in the comments ,but one them says the phone needs to be rooted which may or may not be) based on whatever you want as shown in this video.... not English, in Hindi, but you can make out the details and process from the visuals.
If all else fails, the power and volume rocker low buttons pressed the same time will take a screen shot by default.

Where i can find long press on one hand ?
just my 2 cents; i use good lock and the module navstar. i've put in 2 extra icons in the nav bar (originally has 3: back, home and apps). the other 2 to the left side that have been added are power off and screenshot.

Men thank so much for this tips
From my end, I use the button mapper and set up volume down long press as screenshot. I tried with one hand gestures and somehow, I prefer physical button. Would love to use bixby routine instead but couldn't find a way to screenshot.
Tap tap is my go to. Simply double tap the back of the phone and bam!
Lol I always turn my phone sideways so I can do the volume down & power button press two handed!
