Question [RESOLVED] Recents button keeps breaking

[CZ Eddie]

My T-Mo was on the national ROM and now it's back on the TMO ROM.
On both ROMs, within a week or two of flashing, my recents button stops working.
I use the three-button navigation bar.
In the beginning, I'd click the Recents button and a list of apps would pop up.
Now, nothing happens.

I disabled my Xposed mods.
I wiped data on the navigation bar.

No change in problem. Anyone else getting this behavior?

Geez I hate the new forum's search functionality.

EDIT:
Resolved, see post 3

Another weird thing is my timer no longer wakes the screen when it goes off.
It's the built in Google timer. Set it for 18 minutes and after 18 minutes the alarm goes off but the screen doesn't wake up for me to stop it.

Android 11

This guy recommended updating WebView:

Recents Button stopped working after Android 10

After updating to Android 10 my recents button stopped working. No responses at all when pressed. I have been using a third-party launcher (Square Home)...

Mine was already up to date, so I uninstalled it and then installed the "Beta" version of WebView.
And also updated a few other apps at the same time.
Then, rebooted and now my Recents button is working again.

For the clock issue, I tried wiping Google Clock data and reboot but that didn't help.
Then, I uninstalled it, rebooted and reinstalled it and now it works.
