[Q] Question about galaxy s with broken menu button

hey so i've broken my menu button after replacing my screen bezel. Is there anyway I can disable my stock messaging app without deleting it without using the menu button?
thanks

have you rooted your phone? because there is a root app which shows menu,home and back buttons onscreen, so you dont need to use buttons

Home button

When we keep the home button active we can open google now so I eant to know if we can change this for a other app like phone or whatever. Can we use it like a shortcut?

Not on stock. But in cm it is possible to add shortcuts there

[Q] Remap power button to camera button?

So a friend dropped his C5303 and the power button is now a little sticky.
Any way to turn the camera button into the power button?
Cheers
TIA
EDIT: This device isn't rooted and he'd have no idea how to!

Without rooting you are not able to remap buttons.
If he choose to root then he could use xposed frame work app and a module that would remap buttons or he can try using tasker....it is a paid app but has its own tasker help thread on xda.

Gravity box on screen buttons

I downloaded the xposed apk for the latest gravity box. Everything went okay with the install. But when I enable on screen button my HOME button and my RECENTS buttons were okay but my BACK button is uncannily larger then the others. It's is really annoying me and I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem? I searched the threads and founded nothing about this. I am currently on Viper 6.10

I'm not a dev, but I wonder if this would allow the GravityBox dev(s) to fix it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2452822

Recent apps button vs. Menu

Just got S5 active.
Using app My cast lite.
Can't get into menu to turn off notifications without using the menu button.
Since they replaced that with the Recent Apps button, how do I Aves the menu in apps like this?

There is a way. Download Gravity box (KK) and open it. Then scroll down and click on navigation key actions, then modify the long press and single tap for Recents Key
