No. When you enable them, the ICS ready apps shows the menu button ob one of the bars of the app. But if you remove the navigation bar, you lose them (they are hidden, as I have a physical menu button. What I want is to keep enabled the menu button, even without the navigation ones. Got it?
"I got my values. So you can keep yours, OK?"
If im not mistaken, u have to go into ur display function settings for that.

Nope. If Im right, it's a line change on the framework-res.apk file, but I don't know which one...

I recently reflashed CM7 and I remember being able to long press the back button to force close an app. I can't find this in settings, could someone tell me where it is. Also, I now have a clear button on the bottom of my notifications. How would I remove this

Ummm, the "Clear" button? As in translucent? I didn't know the X2 had a clear button.
I have power, volume up and down, menu, home, back, and search.

Ah! Got it! Yes, that is to clear all temporary notifications. Like email and text message notifications (there are many, many more that flash a notification to the status bar).

Yes, but it's annoying. How would you go about removing it.
One other question. The 3g tethering in CM7, is that through the carrier. Will Verizon change me for using this, our do I need to use a separate app to get around fees.
Sent from my MB870 using xda premium
No, it's not through Verizon. If it were, it would take you to there sign up page when you use it. I doesn't. Will they catch you if you use it? Who knows. I don't imagine you'll draw any more attention if you use it than you would with any other tether app. My guess is, if you don't go crazy with it you'll be just fine. Could be wrong though. Personally, I don't worry about it. But then, I only use it when it's absolutely necessary.

How could we go about removing the clear button? One way is to open your notifications...ie: text, email, etc... The other way to remove it completely would be to disconnect from mobile data/wifi/internet... An easier way could be to smash your phone, but I don't suggest that...lol
What is annoying, the notifications or the buttons???

I pressed into the homescreen:
ADD/launcher actions/open/close APP drawer
and it "installed" a shortcut in my home screen that I can't remove.
I'm using the default ADWLauncher from the CM rom.
Can you guys help me out?
Heh. CM7
press and hold it, can move it up towards the trash or down, where ever the trash is on that old stuff
Its not longpress option activated with the launcher... so I can't do it that easily

It'll be the same as moving app shortcuts around your homescreens.
Longpress on shortcut WILL allow movement/editing/removing. If not then wipe your phone and reinstall it cuz somethings broke.
but I'd do that anyway and get on ICS atleast

Hi guys
Looked for an answer to this and couldn't find one - if you are on the phone and you navigate away to your normal screen by pressing the menu button, the top of the screen goes green (presumably to let you know you are still on the phone).
Is there a simple way to return to the phone screen? At the moment I am choosing phone icon -> return to call but i am wondering whether there is a simple swipe or something to return?
regards
Rob
Scroll down notification tray and click the call button. Is that simple enough for you?

Sorry to bump my own post, but I figured out how to remap APP_SWITCH to MENU, but I can't seem to get the 3 dot overflow menu button to show up in apps (like chrome), or map google now/search to long press home or long press menu. If anyone has any insight on this I'd greatly appreciate it.
While this isn't exactly what you want, I think you should be able to enable the navigation bar to give you the virtual home/recent/back buttons and trigger the virtual menu button. I don't have this phone, but it should work to just open up the build.prop and add the line "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" (requires root obviously) and reboot. I've only done this on a galaxy s cm so it may go badly with a stock rooted... try at your own risk. If you do try, please respond (and post a screenshot ) as I'm curious and considering this phone.
I tried adding that line (again) but no luck...

It looks like (from the screenshot) that you have it =1, not 0. You want it to =0 because it's like saying false, there are no hard keys so android should add the navigation bar. Try changing it to =0, and maybe use a text editor like the one in root browser (free) and reboot. Let me know what happens
Wow you're right... stupid mistake on my part haha, I'll get right back to you after I try it again.
EDIT: Yup that did the trick. Not quite what I was looking for but cool anyways. Thanks!
Now is there anyway to remove the 3 dot overflow bar since my menu key still works lol

Can you post a screenshot? I'm not sure which you mean (3 dot menu or nav bar). Enabling the nav bar is just an easy way to get both a multitask button and the virtual menu button in an app's action bar. I'm not sure about just getting the action bar menu button, but if you don't figure it out it is a setting in cm10/10.1
Its not a big deal since I think it only applies in the settings menu, but yeah I would love to have cm 10 haha
Edit: Sorry about the ridiculous image size...

This is a mod how to enable navigation bar(on screen buttons) , its very simple and easy...
Add the following line at the end of buid.prop file
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
now on reboot we will have nav-bar like on nexus 4
To disable hardware keys, I used root explorer go to system/usr/keylayout click and hold on kaypad.nl and choose from menu open in text editor and 139,158,172 edit the home to hom and do the same on all 3 lines and hit save and reboot,
Plus I went and deleted all the 139, 158, 172 lines from external_kbd.kl, Generic.kl, MHLRCP.kl, osp3-input.kl and qwerty.kl. I dont know if that helps because I deleted them first then edited the lines in kaypad.nl.
Thanx to accentuer he made a zip that works also and might be easier for some people

If you would prefer they didn't you could always turn them off in settings>display>front key light.
As having both seems redundant.
Does this mod disable the hardware keys, I'll do it but no point in having on screen keys and hardware keys.

Many like this from what I have read. It can come in very handy should hardkeys stop functioning.
With all due respect, for me it takes up screen space I would prefer not to give up. It is a matter of personal preference and options are always a good thing.
Edit: Inverted screenshot= nice.

I would have to agree. It doesn't make too much sense to do this on our device, but I for sure appreciate the know how and option to do it.

I assume all your apps will automatically reconfigure to account for the different screen dimentions?
Hmm, tough choice: give up some screen real estate to gain a dedicated task switcher button and context menu button.

If you don't mind trying something, you could open /system/usr/keylayout/keypad_8064.kl in a text editor and put a "#" (without the quotes) at the beginning of the last 3 lines.
Change:
Code:
key 158 BACK VIRTUAL
key 172 HOME VIRTUAL
key 139 MENU VIRTUAL
To
Code:
#key 158 BACK VIRTUAL
#key 172 HOME VIRTUAL
#key 139 MENU VIRTUAL
I have not tried this as I don't have any plans to use this mod... may want to do a quick backup first in case it renders your phone unnavigable.
You may also still have to turn off the backlights in settings>display>front key light.
