This modification uses the 'Xposed' system, which must be installed as detailed in this post.

This modification will restore the missing 'back button options' in the 'Settings -> Display, Gestures and Buttons' menu on your HTC One. As it is an Xposed mod, it should be ROM version independent.

To install...

  • Download and install the modification APK - DOWNLOAD
  • Enabled the module in 'Xposed Installer'
  • Reboot
Easy eh? More Xposed modules for the One will follow. :)

Works like a charm. Thanks Paul, great to have this feature enabled... To be honest I wonder why they disabled it from the review units. Who knows eh.

I too am looking for the button options, maybe I didn't read correctly?

What I have done:
  • I installed the Xposed installer, in the app I hit "install/update"
  • I flashed the ZIP in recovery (CWM)
  • I bought and installed the MoDaCo Toolkit app
  • I activated the module in Xposed
  • I activated the HTC One option to enable the button options

Now where exactly are those options? What subsection of settings and what is it supposed to be called? In the best case I've just overseen it, but I guess I need some advice on this case.

for me it only works then i touch the app ...

when i for example open root explorer and hit back it closes... when i start it and use the app swipe down or up or something and then logpress back it works ... thats kind of anoying ...

I have no luck it seems. I have done a correct installation and rebooted several times, also between simple steps. The module is active and everything and I now tried the option to disable the children mode function in the power menu. After a reboot this function is still visible.

My values:
  • HTC One from Vodafone Germany (driven by a T-Mobile card)
  • unlocked with HTC Dev (S-ON)
  • ROM: Android Revolution HD v3.3
  • other mods: Battery 1% mod

Anyone able to point in the direction of my mistake?

    Re: [MOD-XPOSED] Re-enable the missing back button options

    But we already have this option from Riyal without the need for Xposed?

    Sure, but this method should be rom version independent and is arguably easier to install once you have the Xposed framework.

    Both have their merits! :)

    The option to map long press back as menu, removing the black bar.

    I've also packaged my various xposed mods (with more to come) in a paid app on the Play Store. You can of course download them individually for free still! :)
