Extend the Power Off menu with reboot and so on in stock - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there, I have a N6 running stock Android 5.1 LMY47D. By default "reboot" is not an option when you press "Power Off" button so how do I extend that menu to add "Reboot, "Reboot into Recovery" options? I know there are a lot of ways to do it: trhough XPosed and Advanced Power Menu module (not sure if works fine on Android 5.1), through apps on the PlayStore (one more app just for reboot the phone) and by installing a custom ROM (I like stock for now) but there is a way to avoid all of this and just extend the menu?
Any advice?

as far as i know, the only options are the ones that you listed since there is no stock option built into 5.1:
1) Xposed (which is either in alpha or beta so if i were you i would wait on this option due to stability issues).
2) install an app from the playstore ( i am currently using SimpleReboot which currently satisfies my needs for now).

you can use the terminal also

[MOD] Use Xposed to wake your device by volume key tested on stock rooted N8000 4.1.2

I've been looking for a method to wake up my N8000 by volume key and finally I found Xposed mod which can achieve that
and tested on my N8000 and confirmed working 100%
Download this Modaco toolkit:
http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/download.php?file=com.modaco.toolkit.apk
1- After downloading the Modaco toolkit setup the modaco.toolkit.apk file like normal
2- open Xposed installer then tab on modules
3- check the Modaco toolkit option then open it by pressing it and wait 2 seconds till it opens the list of options
4- go to "device Specific" and press HTC One
5- press to mark "Enable Volume Wake" option
6- press back twice to Xposed installer home page and press "Framework"
7- press Install/Update then reboot
This was made for HTC One but confirmed working on My N8000 device stock rooted 4.1.2
setup on your own risk
To download Xposed Installer from here:

Best Regards
I no its not tested nor do you have the device. But NY chance this would work for 8013? If not is there any files I could give you?

[STOCK ROM] [Root] [FTF] 4.3 Xperia Tablet Z SGP311 10.4.1.B.0.109 US_CA_PR

** DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT A DEVELOPER. I DO THIS AS A HOBBY AND SHARE MY FINDINGS IN CASE SOMEONE ELSE FINDS THEM USEFUL. **
** THIS WORKED ON MY DEVICE BUT IT MAY NOT WORK ON YOURS. APPLY AT YOUR OWN RISK **​
Requirements:
Flashtool 0.9.15.0
Rooted SGP311 (on any Android version up to and including 4.4.2) with custom recovery installed.
If you do not meet these conditions, for example, if you are on an unrooted system, here is a guide to get you on a rooted 4.1.2 with recovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53063218&postcount=14
This works on locked or unlocked bootloaders. This also works on any customization.
The procedure should work with any pre-rooted Android version but I started with 10.1.C.0.370 (4.1.2) which was rooted with DooMLoRD_Easy-Rooting-Toolkit_v17, patched with remountrebootfix, and equipped with XZDualRecovery.
Limitations:
This process can delete the files on your internal SDcard so back them up. Also, you will have to reinstall all your apps, as they get erased too.

You only need the zip and ftf files. The txt file is just the checksum if you want to verify that your download is error-free. I strongly recommend that you do the checksum before flashing.
Instructions:
1- Backup before you start messing with your tablet!
2- Put system.flashable.zip in /sdcard of your tablet.
3- Keep SGP311_10.4.1.B.0.109_R2C_VMo_US_CA_PR_NoSystem.ftf on your PC.
4- Disconnect any USB cable that may be attached to your tablet.
5- Reboot to recovery. Preferably to TWRP, but you can make CWM work too.
6- Do not wipe anything.
7- Once in recovery, flash system.flashable.zip.
8- It is important to NOT REBOOT the tablet after this step.
9- Find and use the Power Off option in the recovery and turn your tablet off. In CWM based PhilZ Touch it is under "Power Options" -> "Power Off". In TWRP it is under "Reboot" -> "Power Off". If you see your tablet rebooting, force it to turn off by pushing the power and volume up keys simultaneously (or however else you can!)
10- Open Flashtool 0.9.15.0 and click on the flash icon. Choose flash mode.
11- Navigate to where you have saved SGP311_10.4.1.B.0.109_R2C_VMo_US_CA_PR_NoSystem.ftf and flash this ftf with your tablet in flash mode. To put your tablet in flash mode, hold the volume down button when it is off and connect with the USB cable to the PC.
12- Reboot and enjoy!
Credits:
I only put the files together. All the credit should go to XDA's [NUT] and DooMLoRD and many others...
I had a few requests from people who upgraded to 4.4 and were not happy with the speed. So I made these file in case you want to downgrade to rooted 4.3.
Enjoy.
Downloading now. Thanks!

This is what I do normally, but you may want to change it for you specific needs:
1- In settings:
Wifi, menu, advanced, network notification unchecked; Keep wifi on never; wifi optimization checked
NFC off
Sound, touch sound off; screen lock sound off
Display, sleep after 30 seconds, double tap to wake up checked, brightness set to lowest
Power management, stamina mode on
Keyboard, sounds feedback, sound on key press unchecked
Accounts, email: set sync frequency to 1 hour; Skype: sync off
2- install adaway
3- use titanium backup pro or apps tab in settings to freeze/disable:
Crackle and Netflix (unless you use them)
Anything with the word or logo of Facebook or twitter or social engine in it. You are better off using the browser for these.
If you use both email and Gmail apps, disable Gmail and set it up in email app.
All Google play apps except store and Services
Google plus and hangout
McAfee, reader by Sony, let's start psm, video unlimited, wisepilot
Mobile date, mobile network, sim lock, and sim toolkit (sgp311 doesn't have mobile data)
PO Box touch and Xperia Chinese keyboard (this may significantly reduce your keyboard flickering if not entirely eliminate it)
4- I install greenify, wakelock detector and juice defender on my other Android devices but I've come to believe Sony's stamina does an excellent job and none of that is necessary.
5- Turn gps on only when you use it
6- Remove active widgets from your home screen. I only have the clock and the weather left. If you want to keep the widgets put them on a separate display than the ones you keep your commonly used icons in.
With these settings mine is smooth as butter. I hope yours will be too.

AOSP N [7.1] Cannot Access menu using menu hardkey

Hi, i have problem using AOSP N [7.1],
im unable to access menu options for some apps using menu hardware key,
usually menu options can be accessed with tapping or hold down the menu hardware key.
i already set the button settings for the hardware key actions, but its not work.
with using software enabled option i still can get access to the menu options (there will be extra button on software keys),
but i dont like that software because my screen is getting smaller.
Pls help me with this problem..ty...
PS: im using ROM AOSP N [7.1] December patch with all the fix patch installed, but without google pixel patch, because i got stuck in "setting up android" screen.
U can install gravity box and in that u can reassign the hardware keys but u device needs to support Xposed installer I think so, when I am using 6.0.1 ghost ROM it supports the Xposed installer but I don't know whether aosp supports the Xposed or not

Lol. There is no Xposed for nougat yet.
Then there is another way in playstore we have app named keymapper which is enough to reassign any apps or actions to our hardware keys

Installed Magisk and now home button and menu button (left) doesn't work

I just installed magisk through the magisk manager app and it went just fine, but now when I've rebooted my home and menu buttons aren't working. I get the vibration response but no action. the menu key does bring up manus in apps but it doesn't do what it did before installing Magisk... Can I reset the buttons functionality somehow? I'm running LineageOS 14.1 on a Redmi Note 4. Please help!
his is an Android issue.
Step instructions:
- Download Nova Launcher. If you cannot from the google play store, search for it on Chrome and download an apk version
- Install it (you may get a pop up advising you need to let apps installed from chrome, go to settings and allow it)
- Once installed, click on Open. This should launch the Nova Launcher
- Long press anywhere on the screen
- Choose Widgets.
- Look for the Activities widget and hold and place it anywhere on the screen.
- Scroll down to Setup Wizard. There's two, one that's "Setup Wizard" and the other "SetupWizard" without a space. Choose the first. There should be an option under it called ".SetupWizardUpgradeActivity". It might be slightly different for you pending the version OS you have but that's what came up for me.
- Select that to create the widget shortcut then click to open.
- This will bring you to the setup wizard and then just click Next all the way through (turn off any preferences you may have in the past)
You can uninstall Nova Launcher afterwards if you want. You don't need to set it as default.
Can I use this for a noname android car head unit? What is the
custom recovery that I could use?
