seriously why i need 10 post to post a pictture..... pff....
i think its goLauncher related and I don't believe you can remove it annoys me also
It replaces the menu soft key since that button is now the recent apps button.
In most cases you can move it around on the screen to get it out if the way.

This only happens with old apps that have not been updated with a menu button. The developer has to update the app. Presumably the Nexus 5 doesn't have this because it has software buttons, not capacitive. I wouldn't expect Samsung to do anything about this. Not sure what they could do as I think their 3-dots solution is as good as any.

Hey guys,
So, I just picked up the HTC one today. As I expected, the hardware is great, but I have to admit i'm really disappointed in the software. It feels like a child's toy. So few options. I'm coming from an Xperia Ion. I thought the software on that was terrible and limited but HTC's is worse. It obviously didn't take me long to flash my Ion. and it seems I'm not even willing to give the HTC 24 hours to flash it either. So, I'm used to Cyanogen Roms and other xperia specific roms which were awesome. But I see no stock android roms for the HTC One. All seem to have HTC Stock Roms and that's exactly what I don't want. I don't want to be limited by the choices HTC gives me.
I was just wondering if anyone knew of a Stock 4.1.2 or 4.2 android rom for the HTC. And if not, if you recommend any particular Rom considering the following:
1. I need LTE
2. I want a barebones phone that I can add what i need to, not the other way around. I hate these freakin manufacturers and their obsessive need to add crap to a perfectly fine platform. I'd get the nexus 4 is it's hardware was better and had LTE and didn't look like ****, but hey, that's not an option.
Things I hate about the One.
1. the phone dialer buttons are badly placed
2. no control over headset button actions - even with 3rd party apps
3. No menu button that I can find - yes I know each app has one, but it's not standard and that's annoying
4. Can't seem to find a recent apps/multi-task button
5. Bunch of home app features missing or just too limited - yes I know i can replace with a launcher
Recent apps/Multi-tasking: Quickly double tap the Home key to get this.
(As you may have noticed, long-press Home opens Google Search)
Multitask by double tapping the home button. But ya I flashed to trickdroid for the One and its still HTC stock, but it is alot better, Gives you the option of making the long hold on the back button a menu button.
There a few minimal roms in the development forum.
@kuroneko007 -- thanks for that. looked everywhere. I even tried double tapping a couple times, but seems my timing was off, which is just a testament to how bad an idea that is. Double tap incorrectly and you end up on the home page. No big deal, but all these little things just irk me. Ya, I had noticed the long press home feature.
@sdla4ever -- trickdroid will take a look. was really hoping there'd be a non HTC option, but i realize it's a very new phone and maybe there just hasn't been enough dev time just yet. I am hoping that'll change.
I saw a thread on an app called SwipePad, which will help with getting around the phone from anywhere with gestures, which is cool, so that might help a bit, but i just feel like there are a lot of details I was spoiled with on my previous roms that I'm just not getting here at all. Anyway, any other tricks and tips you guys have found that boost your productivity or provide more options, i'm always open to hearing.
Thanks for your input guys.

Look in the HTC One development forum there are ROMs that are even more minimal.
Give it a month or two. The phone has just been released and many people have not even got hold of their pre-ordered units yet.

Ya, I figured that was the case, but just thought I'd ask, on the off-chance i was missing something obvious. I wonder if Cyanogen will make a ROM for it. Of all the roms i've tried, I think i like the CM ones best, though not by much. SOme really good stuff out there.

I have the opposite problem - I hate the fact that for many apps which already have a menu button a separate menu button appears at the bottom of the screen, taking up valuable screen estate. Any way to stop this?

My suggestion would be to install the Renovator ROM with the de-sense option in AROMA, then install Apex launcher and set gestures for actions you want such as menu and search...etc. Or you could give the CM from the ATT version a shot, but it seems to be an early build so there could be some loose ends right now.
I think this is a great phone the has some questionable design decisions from HTC in both the hardware and software. But everything can be somewhat dealt with with a little trial and error and research.

I found a much better way - I installed this kernel and disabled the three menu button menu - now use the htc logo as the menu button!
@apd - that's exactly what I mean. Sure the apps have their own menu area, but it's a waste of space and not always in the same place for every app, which is annoying and like you said takes up real estate. if one of the capacitive buttons could serve as the menu button, that would be awesome. As for the last reply, what do you mean you disabled the 3 menu button menu? I understand that it's possible to use the htc logo as a cap button, but what other button are you referring to that you disabled? You referring to the software/app buttons that show up in every app? Please explain. I wonder what roms that kernel works with. Will have to look into that.
@lilhaiti - i agree. phone is solid, but there are a few things that imo weren't done with much thought. I am and have used Apex for a couple years, and between that and Swipe Pad, I've covered most of the basics, tho, essentially I'm installing apps to do what the phone should be able to do from the start. Whatever, no big deal, but these details are still important to me. As for the CM, I'll wait. I'm not in a huge rush, but I'll definitely try it once it's stable.

adding
Code:

to your build.prop file will remove the three dot menus in all apps bar HTC's.
I did this and have the HTC Logo as a menu button.
Bonus question:
Does anyone know how to keep the three-dot menu in apps which implement it properly in the action bar, but hide it in apps where it appears as a black bar?
Ok guys and gals. Had my htc one for a few days now. Unlocked the bootloader today, installed twrp custom recovery so far and running stock.rom at the moment. Now the question i have is:
Like on my HTC Evo 3d you could replace the task buttons on the bottom of the screen up from the soft keys. Im not seeing how to do that now.
Any one have a clue about how to go about this? I removed a few apps and disabled a few for example the stock internet browser. And it took the task icon off the bar but i cant seem to replace it with anything. I am adding a attached screen shot pic for a better idea
I do appoligize if this has already been asked before. I have been the past while trying to make sure it hasnt been

Hello.
Today, after update of apps on my galaxy tab s 10 lte, I did some research on just instaled updates, and suddendly, I got supprised, that switching between apps worked in other ways than always - on bottom of screen I got 3 icons on black background (just like here: aboveandroid.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/android-5.0-L-1.jpg]) and while swapping on that bottom I was switching between currently working apps
I don't have idea, how I got to that mode, and I don't know in which app I activated this mode, but it looks like somthing from andoid 5.0, which unplanned got to some app (on my tablet I have only applications from andoid market, from offical google profile). I have andoid 4.4.2 on my galaxy tab s
Have someone got the same mode? I liked it very much (it is much easier to switch between apps than standard button and choosing app), but I don't have idea how I got to it.
Can someone help?

It could be ROM related. You might have gotten a bad download. That or it could be S-Health related I had the same issue with my device for a while, after messing with it a bunch i froze S Health in titanium backup and the phone came back to life. It was a software bug though on other ROMs and/or the updated version of the ROM it did not have the same porblem.

Hello, I'm an user of samsung galaxy s5 Korean variants G900K and last night, I updated my phone to MM and if you guys want to know what has been changed in the new version of the firmware, I will write a list of the change log I found.
1. the app icons are changed into 5.1.1 one except the internet app and SystemUI is same as last version. none of things are changed.
2. When the application requires some permission, you can make a decision whether you allow the permission or not.
3. when the screen changes like closing apps, opening apps, etc... there's an effect zoom in and zoom out
4. when you turn on/off your screen, like galaxy note5, there's an fade in/out effect from edge of the screen to center
5. the multitasking button's responding time has been reduced.
6. the smart manager application have a widget to clean ram and storage.
Finally, the fingerprint scanner's scanning speed is increased and every time you reboot your phone, thought you have set the fingerprint lockscreen, you have to enter the backup password once.
These are what I've found and there might be more than these. Sorry for bad English cuz I'm Korean so my main language isn't English....
