I have about 19 xposed modules activated and I was wondering if that may be too many. I have shortcuts to the power menu and I have noticed that these don't work anymore or are very slow, so I just use the old fashioned power volume button method.
I am trying to figure out what may be causing this because the shortcuts worked fine before.
I am trying to find whether some xposed modules or other apps may be interfering with the power menu shortcuts, but could it be that I just have too many xposed modules in general?

It depends on the modules.
Well written modules should have minimal impact. However just having xposed installed tends to slow the system down slightly.
I have 18 modules installed, and my system is pretty responsive.
I'd suggest dialing the modules one by one to find the culprit. You can also make a backup and uninstall xposed to see if it makes any difference.
Thanks, I found the problem. I had a setting checked in gravity box that had to do with the power menu that made other shortcuts to the power menu such as ones with neo power menu xposed module and rom toolbox shortcuts to reboot, etc, to not function properly.

Is there any way to add extra buttons to the nav bar in stock (.283) like you can in AOKP, Carbon, etc.? I don't even need all of them, just the last app button. There are some apps that do this by adding a floating button (LAS), but I want it on my nav bar. UDN doesn't work right, and doesn't let me customize the buttons for some reason. The only other way I've found is to decompile the SystemUI, but I'd rather not do something that risky if there's an alternative. I was on Carbon for a long time and I really loved this feature, but I need the battery life that stock gives. I've found Xposed modules for everything else I'm used to, this is the only thing missing. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

use gravity box and add custom key to get it!
:good:
I've tried that, and it's not suitable for several reasons. First off, GB causes layout problems in the recents panel, making the small apps inaccessible. No matter what I toggle, it doesn't go away unless I disable GB. Also, the button appears to the extreme side; I was hoping to get it as a main nav button, like in the custom ROMs.
Looks like I might have to decompile after all. Oh, well. Thanks for your reply, though!
I used this xposed module on sock 4.3 for modify navbar buttons:
Xperia/AOSP NavBar Buttons
I don't know is it working on 4.4 or not. I am using Carbon at the moment.

This is a known bug in the latest GravityBox version. Download the ”no_translucent_recent” version from this post.

You might not even need a separate button — with GravityBox you can assign actions to the long press of the “Recent Apps” button, and to the long press and double tap of “Back” and “Home” buttons. There is also the “Navigation Bar Ring” feature (you can add more actions than just Google Now).
@kanyazsombor
That module doesn't have a last app button. Thanks anyway!
@sigprof
Long press takes too long, and double tap on anything other than the recent key for a recent app feels... Wrong. Picky, I know, but still. I hadn't thought of using the nav bar ring targets, will try that as soon as I can, and the bug fix you mentioned. Thanks for your help!
Hi,
I've bought several Android devices and since 2014 I really hate how the multitasking button replaced the menu button.
I just want to bring the menu button back and bring the multitasking section by long-pressing the home button, I really don't care about the Google Search functions.
The problem is, the phones I bought don't have any on-screen buttons and I really don't want to add a bottom panel for that.
I also know that GravityBox may be the Xposed module which can do that, but since it mostly applies to AOSP-based ROMs, I'm affraid of having conflicts with my phones' stock ROMs (Zenfone Selfie -ZE551KL- on Marshmallow).
Some apps that I found in the internet are quite old -pre 2014-, making them surely unsuitable for Android Lollipop and above.
So the question is: Is there any Xposed module -or even an app !- that can remap the bottom hardware buttons without conflicts ?
Have you tried out Xposed Additions?
Does anyone know how to remap the power button? I want to remap power button single press to "back" function. Modifying key 116 value from "POWER" to "BACK" in /system/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl as well as several other layout files in that folder did not work. Phone ignores those changes after reboot, and uses default function of turning the screen on and off.
"Xposed Additions" Xposed module does have this capability, but this module doesnt work on Magisk version of MIUI Xposed... Any suggestions are welcome. TIA.
EDIT: Managed to install Xposed Additions - it doesn't have the option I'm looking for. It allows to assign very specific, limited number of functions to it, and BACK button isn't one of them.
i was able to remap the power button to answer phone call using xposed additions try it out, you need root + xposed though.
Re-read the 2nd paragraph of my question. It looks like you bluntly ignored it.
Would like double-tapping the power button to launch a media player. Is that doable? I'm rooted (no xposed module seems to offer this).
Have you tried Xposed Additions?
It doesn't allow you to map to a specific application
I'm not sure if this will work or not, but can you set Xposed Addition to run a Tasker task on click to open the media player?
Edit: Seems like you can only launch apps or run a task on the pro version of Addition.
Hi everyone,
I will try to stay as clear as possible. I do not like "swipe to unlock" or something like it, what I like is to click power button to lock and unlock my android. But I noticed that lots of the time I accidentally press this power button for example in my pocket or even when I am walking holding it in my hand... So I have an idea to wake/unlock the phone not by pressing the power button once, but pressing it twice to unlock/wake the device...
Till now I have just been playing with simple tasker tasks, but this one seems to be difficult for me. Any ideas is it possible? Tried to look for app which could do like this, but couldn't find any. I own rooted Nomu S30 Android 6.
All ideas appreciated!
hi friend, I don't think Tasker can do this. Maybe you should check out some Xposed modules for that, since you have root, and this looks like system level controls.

I have xposed on my android (Nomu S30, original ROM), but it seems that modules does not want to work... It says like "module activated" but actually it does not work at all, atleast those I have tried just does not work... Any ideas about this?
sorry, I cannot assume anything generally , you probably should check with Xposed to see what happens. It could be that:
- Framework not yet active
- Device not yet restarted
- Compatibility issue
- Wrong module/usage
Maybe an app like Proximity Lock/Unlock will help.
How about gestures in wake up?
