zMooth without root

Hi all,

I'm wondering if there's any apps that replace the hardware buttons (like zMooth, Button Saviour, Virtual Button Bar), WITHOUT having to root my phone.

Thanks,
Sasha
 
I wrote Virtual Button Bar and from all the research I did, it's not possible to inject key events into other apps unless you have root access and it's designed that way by Google.

The best you can do without root (to my knowledge) is:

  • Home
  • Lock Screen - there's a separate permission for that
  • Camera
  • Notifications
  • Start Apps
