Is there a .zip to revert the home / menu - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5

Is there a zip to put the Menu / Home buttons back to what they were on the s3 s4? I use apps that dont have a menu tap here button. I need the the original menu button.
Thanks in advance.

If you are rooted check out this post to see what would need to be changed

a zip might be problematic as it might be dependent on the rom you are running.

An even easier way is to download gravity box and set the keys as you wish.

Isn't the default hold action on the "App switcher" (left) icon going directly to settings?

Problem with home key

So far I can't post PM or message to developement board as new registered user, lets try to get answer to my problem this way
Problem and following ROM is related to Xperia GO
I downloaded, installed and started use ExtremeSecurity Stock Jelly Bean 6.2.A.1.100 European ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2328171. I did it as I need something to replace stock one with delays it have. I found one problem, I am unable to solve. After install and rooting I found I can't use the home key (the touch sense key under display - the one with "house"). I was trying to google and change mapping of this key and did not succeed. So I made some tests and did not move anywhere forward...
1) If I go to recovery, cwm allow me to display key numbers in some menu. Here key respond well it code as 102 (as it should)
2) If I add line like key 102 HOME WAKE to any file in /system/usr/keylayout nothing change (after editing I reboot, then put it back, so far I was not succesfull)
3) If I use any of "keypress test application" (try 3 of them) they report all keys well (back, settings, vol up/dwn power) but no report and no action for home.
There is no difference in press or long press of key. Simply no action follows.
Do you have any Idea what can be wrong?
Thanks a lot
Karel
P.S. If admins will forward it as message to munjeni or move to Developement part of forum for this ROM, please delete it here...

[MOD]i9195 Disable HOME button on lockscreen(rooted stock rom)[MOD]

Hi
The main goal: disabling the home button wake on the lockscreen and every other home fuction remain the same
this solution based on this tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224688
you need root acces:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2364980
Download Total Commander from Play (it's better bcose there is automatic moun/remount function )
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
- allow root acces to TC
- navigate to /system/usr/keylayout
- locate and copy to safe place gpio-keys.kl and sec_keys.kl
- open the original files with TC editor (press once on the filename and choose "Edit")
- Search the following lines in gpio-keys.kl:
Code:
key 102 HOME WAKE
key 172 HOME WAKE
and delete the WAKE world and all spaces after HOME!
it should be looking:
Code:
key 102 HOME
key 172 HOME
- save gpio-keys.kl (TC do all mount-remount thing)
- Search the following line in sec_keys.kl:
Code:
key 172 HOME WAKE
and delete the WAKE world and all spaces after HOME!
it should be looking:
Code:
key 172 HOME
- save sec_keys.kl (TC do all mount-remount thing)
restart the phone and enjoy
If you're using CM, go to Settings - Display and Uncheck the second last option to achieve the same effect in a much simpler way

Very useful tutorial. Thank you a lot. My phone used to unlock itself in my pocket and then make a call or mess up settings... S4 mini reacts to touches trough thin cloth. This wasn't problem on HTC.
Wanam xposed module can do it ss well. Obviously you need to have xposed framework installed.

Not working with my AT&T S3 with stock 4.4.2 android. This is driving my nuts. There has to be a way to disable this. HELP!!!
Hi,
I've rooted my Galaxy S4 mini because the home button is turning on the screen continiously draining my battery. The root was succesfull, but i cant edit the files with Total commander. I get a 're-mount error'. Anyone know how to solve this? I'm running stock android 4.2.2.
I also tried installing Wanam Xposed and found the option, but it didn't work.
Thanks
Removing WAKE didn't help my either. I had to comment out (#) the whole line in gpio-keys.kl.
Now HOME is completely disabled and I installed Auto Hide Soft Keys to create a virtual nav bar.
On the other hand, who needs HOME

Thanks for your reaction! My problem is that i cant change the gpio-keys.kl file. I get a 're-mount error'. But maybe i will need your suggestion further on.
Hmmm, phone is rooted?
I used ES File Explorer in Root Mode, changed gpio-keys.kl file permissions to rx-rx-rx, edited the file and restored permissions to rx-r-r. After a reboot, HOME was disabled.

Yes the phone is rooted. I checked it with root checker. Maybe i need to change the the file permissions. How can i do this? With ES file explorer?
Do you use stock android ?
Yes I'm on stock rom.
Open ES Explorer and go to Tools. Switch on Root Explorer. Mark the file and change the permissions via More > Properties. Just add the middle and lower check on the right side.
Now edit the file and change the permissions back.
I am able to save the file now, but the home button is still functioning. I commented out the lines with HOME in gpio-keys.kl and rebooted. But still the screen keeps turning on because of the home button.:crying:
In reverse?
Anyone know if the opposite variation on this is possible?
I.e., I'd like to be able to use the home button to wake my phone up, but not to take me to the home screen, simply to turn the screen on so I can continue with whatever app I'm currently using, such as gps... (if it can carry on working as home button when the screen is already on, that would be fine).
Using the side power button can sometimes be a hassle and I'd like a way to simply turn the screen on quickly. I'm also on CM not stock though...
Thanks!

[MOD] Menu key -> App Switch/Recents

Flashable zips to change the hardware menu key to app switch/recents.
Method is simply to replace MENU with APP_SWITCH in Generic.kl
Tested with TWRP and Google Edition 4.4.2/Hyperdrive RLS15 4.3.
You will lose access to settings menus, so use your preferred alternative method to access them. I use Gravitybox to set long press on recents key to menu. You need to change settings for recents key, not menu key in Gravitybox/whatever you use.
Mostly just for convenience since I always do this when flashing roms anyways and I think it's ridiculous to have to hold the middle button for 2 seconds to switch apps. I just add menu_switch to queue after whatever rom zip I'm flashing.
Attached:
menu_switch.zip - changes menu key to app switch/recents key
menu_revert.zip - reverts changes

menu key disappeared

menu key disappeared in setting.... if i search it its show and is possible set all key but when return in setting no menu key.......
run oxigen 2.1.3x whit root twrp xposed
ok if in gravity box enable menu key optimize in setting menu key disappeared...
