Does Softkeyz allow you to change the functionality of the buttons or just the look? I want to swap the back and recent apps keys on my M8.

I'm using softkeyz for the looks and gravitybox to do the same thing you're wanting to do, works great!

Well I have gravitybox installed but didn't see an option to swap the keys around. I'll have to look again.

You really don't wanna use GravityBox... mainly because the dev don't really like anyone who's not using a Nexus. Sense Toolbox will change the functionality of the navbar buttons... GravityBox will too, but a bunch of things don't work. Ironically, on the Galaxy S3, more stuff in GravityBox works in TouchWiz than CM. Yep, even in CM, which is as close to AOSP as you can get without running a Nexus, stuff in GB is broken. Anyway, unless GB has something real special ST doesn't... I'd just stick with ST, provided you're running a Sense ROM, that is. If you're GPE, take your chances with GB. Might work, might not, not sure on that count.

What about adding extra nav bar soft keys? I am used to owning Nexus phones but loving the new HTC so I went for the M8 this time with no regrets. So far the only thing i am missing is the ability to add up to 6 softkeys. Thanks.

Not in Sense. Various custom ROMs have the ability to add or remove soft keys.

If you really wanna stick with Sense and you don't hate Pie, LMT Launcher (it's not really a launcher) has a decent Pie you can use.
