Navigation key button remapping?

On previous phones xposed and gravity box would allow me to remap my navigation keys. A long press of back would bring me to the last used app, long pressing recents would kill the current app.
Since the S6 does not work with xposed, I am in a dire search for a way to do this.
Any suggestions?

Custom navbars not working

Hi.
So I've been trying to get my navbar buttons to work as they did in my previous phone. What would be:
Recent apps short press: open menu
Recent apps long press: search
Recent apps double tap: open assistant
Home button short press: home
Home button long press: recent apps
Home button double tap: split screen
Back button short press: back
Back button long press: kill app
Remaping the buttons doesn't seem an option since the soft keys are not detected as buttons. I rooted my device as well.
I've tried several methods using other apps that should replace the stock navbar but those despite being shown they do nothing.
I would also like to have it so the home button is disabled when typing.
I would really appreciate some help. Thanks

-OS: OOS9.0.5

Most of the functions you listed can be achieved by using the navbar customization built into Oxygen OS. (Settings->Buttons->Navigation Bar->Customization) The kill app button could probably be done with Tasker.

Although it is true the actions themselves are available on the stock menu apart from search and kill app. The short press action cannot be changed

Ah, didn't notice the menu one. Just for curiosity, do apps still support a menu button function? I haven't seen a hardware menu button in years.

Oh yes they do. All of the ones I use at least it just opens whatever menu the app has that you would access by pressing on 3 dots. I just hate that some apps use other methods so you always have to think how to open the menu as oposed to just pressing the same thing

LineageOS 16: how to config menu button ?

Hi,
some applications needs a menu button to get all functionality, but my phone do have only "back - home - recent".

Settings buttons

Sorry, this was the first I was looking for
there are only settings for power and volume (hardware buttons), nothing else. Nothing about navigation bar and his buttons.
could this be device specific customized in LOS by devices maintainer?

LOS16: any way to change nav bar settings?

Hi,
is there any way to config nav bar settings with LOS16 and BQ Auqaris X Pro?
I need menu button and want to use this with double click or long press for Home button?
any solution for this?
thanks for any hints and tips

got a tip otherwise: Button Mapper
https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/flar2.homebutton

Am I right that this allows the mapping of the physical buttons but not that the nav bar is visible again? I didn't find a way to make it visible after switching to LOS.

I using free version of button mapper only and only for emulating the missing HOME button
this works
I do not know an option for making nav bar visible again

Question Remapping Side Buttons?

What's the best method people are using to remap what the aide buttons do? I would do this on my S21, to do things when I held the power button or volume buttons. Is it possible here?

Button mapper can do that. I have flashlight on volume down longpress, and authenticator for long press volume up.
