I made an application for my Samsung device. Samsung phones generally have a menu button on the bottom side of the phone which is a problem for those devices who do not. I tried my app out on a Nexus, but since it did not have the physical menu button, I couldn't open the menu.
Now I want to make another option to to open the menu in my app. I though a slide out menu would be nice. I want to use the same menu but another way to open it. I want to be able to open it from the side of the screen by swiping to the right, and from the menu button.
P.S. Normally there is a titlebar on top of the screen in an app with a menu button/option on it to. But I hide my titlebar (in my AndroidManifest), so that's the issue why I need another solution..

Use Navigation Drawers for slide out menu. You can use Navigation for two menus, one from left other from right using different listview.
If you want to design a custom slide out menu using navigation drawer here is a tutorial.
