Back Button

[jreink01]

Hello, have a Google pixel XL rooted. I would like to ask if there is any way/mod for getting the back button to kill the app I'm in and return to the home screen. This was available as a mod in my last phone, LG G3 and I loved it. Thanks

Custom ROMs have that feature, I believe PureNexus does.

PN definitely does.

I would like to stay on stock if at all possible. That's why I was wondering if there was a mod or something.

Don't know of one yet. Stuff like this is why I root & rom.

Would using the escape key code instead of the back key code work?

You can try flashing this. I'm not sure it will work on an XL

Does that give functionality of long pressing the back key to kill the app I'm in?

No, long pressing doesn't do anything.

I would like to still keep the back button.
