But I use another plugin to add after my posts a “Next/Previous” button.
it depends on how that plugin builds its list of next/prev posts.
But if I hit this button, it doesn’t open the correct REORDERED post. It opens the DEFAULT ORDERED post, not the reordered.
this plugin enables the WordPress standard for prev/next post selection in page templates, see FAQ #15.
So you don’t need a plugin do this, simply use the above functions in your page templates.

Is there any built-in function to do it within categories? Or I need to write an own function?
Sorry for the lot of questions, but I don’t know functions.

the built-in function already exists in WordPress core, you just need to add it to your page template.
You’ll need to follow a tutorial on how to do it.
else you need to use a theme which already has navigation functionality

Thank you for the tutorial, you are awesome!
But it still not follow the reordered order.
In the category pages, it still shows the CORRECT order.
But the next and previous don’t follow the correct REORDERED order.

where are your prev/next buttons? are they in a category archive page?
If you are testing on a general post archive page or single post then it will not work as the query a general query, not a taxonomy query.
I just tested on WordPress theme twentyfifteen which paginates the taxonomy archive and it works just fine.
If you are not sure, change your theme to twentyfifteen and test the pagination on a category archive page.

I put prev/next buttons in the single.php file.
Because I want use it in my posts.
I put prev/next buttons in the single.php file.
and that’s the reason it is not working. By default when you open a post link to be displayed in single.php it will not build a taxonomy query, and therefore the prev/next links are the posts that follow the in chronogical order.
In order to achieve your desired effect, modify our archive.php page template to display a single post and add your prev/next button.

Or you can alter the query within your single.php
