Hi there,
I am pretty new to my Redmi 4X, but one thing that freaked me out was the reversed position of the BACK & RECENT Buttons compared to other phones ( which I came from ).
Since it took me a while to figure it out exactly, I will put it down here for others that might be in the need to change it:
Being rooted I changed the contents of /system/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl . You might want to backup that file in advance.
Look for the assignments of buttons 158 & 139. Change those two around, reboot - et voila: Left button will be your BACK button, right button triggering your RECENTs.
Thought it might be interesting to someone, since that option is not available in most ROMs anymore.
