i don't need extra keys on that rom . i simply tap twice the screen on any area and the screen just turnes off and the phone locks

As i used destriker it has a power button on the navbar to lock the device..
But if you want you can have xperia xposed to double tap on home screen to lock the device..but not anywhere!

That's it! You need to reboot phone to activate the function.
To make this happen, the Xposed framework application must have first been activated by installing the framework, activating the Xperia Xposed module, and restarting.
Thank you for the reply sir

[Q] Enable capacitive buttons on CM11 (or reduce NavBar)

Hi all! I would like to know how to enable the capacitive keys on the s3 mini with cyanogenmod 11 (KitKat). it's a bit annoying using the navigation bar (qemu.hw.mainkeys=0).
they worked with the samsung firmware e they blink for 5-6 secs after boot.
(otherwise I would like to reduce the navigation bar)
I've also notice that I don't have this file: sec_touchkey.kl under /system/usr/keylayout
Thanks for the help.

You can also enable them with Gravity box xposed module & change the size too Or use carbon rom, it has a switch for navigation bar & size.

Yeah! you need xposed framework to use modules. With GB you can enable nav bar & his size, amoung other things
Thanks!!! to restore the capacitive buttons??

Don't understand you very well (nav bar buttons or physical buttons!?), anyway to change their behaviour go to, system settings-buttons & choose what function you want for them.

no....the don't work at all!!! i want their functions.
The only way to emulate them is the navigation bar but it was too big (with the GB I've resized it).
I wish someone tell me how to enable this buttons that worked with the original firmware.
I already told you in the previous posts how to change their functions & how to disable or change the backlight.
I am also having this problem and there is no option in settings to enable/disable this buttons. Like edoz90 said, the buttons worked perfectly on the stock rom.

Best mod for knock off phone?

Hi, since double tap to wake works like a charm but its frustrating me about turning screen off, we still need to use that power on button which has bad feeling in comparison of older xperia
Nova launcher has a double tap system for screen off
Anyone has an app/mod that allows a double tap/simple tap to put screen off?
Thanks

if you are not rooted and don't mind having an icon on the homescreen try this here on the play store JB Lock Now
if you are rooted you can try this xposed module http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/mod-doubletaptosleep-v1-0-t2667177]
Thanks for these apps but i dont want physical icons, its annoying to put it on each menu
That one within navbar, great idea, i gonna try it :fingers-crossed:

You don't need icons for the 2 I mentioned. They work as shortcuts with Nova gestures, 1tap, 2tap or whatever you prefer. Just give them a try.
i use greenify in combination with nova gestures

I use screen off and assign it to double tap with Nova (need to have paid nova though)

i use greenify hibernation shortcut ..... which is swype upward from home button to see "whats new" and "google search" .... swype towards "google search" and select "hibernate + lock screen" (always).
this is best according to me .... cause u dnt need to be on home screen always .... it can be done from any screen !!
obviously u need greenify installed

Thanks, tested and i approve this method :good:
Xperia Xposed (KK) >> Xperia Home >> Desktop >> Double Tap Gesture >> Lock Screen
It does work with stock home launcher only!
Not too sure if it works on the Z3, but on my HTC i have installed a app called all in one gestures, which allows me to double tap the top notification bar, and the screen knocks itself off.
I am sure you can customize it the way you want it, hopefully it will work on the Z3, as i have just bought one myself.
Oh thanks great found, gonna try it :good:
Gravity Box has this option. I have it on long press of recent apps. Makes it available from everywhere. You could also use Greenify's screen off through Gravity Box and assign it to a long press or create an extra navigation item and have it there; tap, double tap, long press.
No root method
I am using a clear home screen widget from this app. Just add to homescreen and resize.
Works like a charm.
Ummm ok new user , so just search google play for DTSO.
I use Nova Launcher Prime and "Screen off and lock"
Use the app Soft Lockscreen from the play store. Just keep the app icon anywhere on the homescreen
Sent from my D5833 using XDA Free mobile app
is there anyway to make greenify shortcut to work on lockscreen of lollipop, either by replacing camera icon or phone icon, ?
just use gravity screen. it saves me the use of any buttons and no xposed is required.

Go to gravity box> navigation bar tweaks>enable master switch and navigation bar. Scroll down and you will found swap back and recent key option. Click on that, and reboot your phone. Make sure you have installed latest gravity box and also gravity box must be enable in xposed installer.

[Q] Double click home button to open multitasking

Is there anyway to change it from the default short hold the home button to double click the home button? Thanks.
On stock I could never get double tap for recents working using xposed which is the only way I know to try. As for custom roms they have the ability built in. Maybe things have improved so try using an xposed module to get the double tap
Sadly, I use ART on stock so no Xposed. I'll be waiting around.

[Q]How can I change the navbar buttons?

Hi users.
Does anyone has an idea how to change the menu button on the navigation bar with the recent apps button??
Tried g2tweaksbox and when I enter the sub menu in settings to change the layout the settings app gives fc.
Anyone has any other idea or solution to change that button?
Thanks.
Sent using my GFlexing phone ? ?
Not a total solution, but I don't use the softkeys.... I use pie controls. They stay hidden until you swipe from the bottom , left or right screen sides. With it you can have any button combos, color, size or actions.
Works awesome. Assuming your rooted and use xposed

You need Root permissions, besides the Xposed and module Xstana, next run Xstana and restart phone to changer, I have it installed on my LGL23 and working perfectly

Xstana module only themes your navigation bar and I need to replace the menu button not to theme it.
