[Q] "Standalone" navbar mod options? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone
I've seen that is quite easy to enable/disable the Navbar in JB, just adding the qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 string in build.prop file.
What's not easy at all is to modify the navbar, height, buttons number, etc... so i am wondering if there's some kind of application that add these options, without having to change ROM.
I saw the procedure to manually modify the framework-res.apk, but it's not so easy at all...
Wouldn't it be helpful for everyone to have an app like this?

[Q] Add/Customize soft keys?

I'm wondering if it's possible to add some custom actions to ICS softkey bar... On my tablet would be nice to have next/prev/pause music always visible even in navigation mode with sigic or igo at full screen. Any hint?

found many hints to change color, but no to add custom functions...
I'm also interested in this.
I want to make the menu softkey persistent and tried editing SystemUI.apk (XML and Smali files) with no success.
Can someone help?

Need help with modifying theme

So i just started to customize my Streak, modifying the SystemUI.apk. So far I only managed to modify the notification bar/pull-down.
Some questions i couldn't solve myself, help would be appreciated:
As the lock screen is semi-transparent, my guess is that there could be a PNG-file for its bg. Where to find it to edit it, or am I totally wrong?
Also, where to change the other stuffs shown on the lock screen?
How does the battery icon in the notification bar work? It doesn't appear to be a set of PNG-files like the other objects in the notification bar.
Thanks for your help!
Here's another question:
After using apkmultitool to decompile SystemUI.apk, editing some hexcodes, then recompiling it again, I have no statusbar anymore!
What could be the problem?

[Q] Nav bar cursor arrows without xposed

Is it possible to get nav bar cursor arrows on a stock rom without xposed framework?
If that you mean navbar arrow like mm and lolli have, you need to decompile your systemui, or just want to enable it?

Is there a solution that doesn't require decompiling systemui?

You can use another systemui that have arrow navbar icon for compare, just replace some png to your systemui, find it on drawable folder, no need to decompile because no xml and smali editing, just replace png. but sometimes the back arrow are look bigger than other. You can use Xplore file manager to open apk as zip.
Other than Xposed or SystemUI mods, don't think you can enable it. You can use the Google keyboard and while longpressing on the space bar, there's a feature that will allow you to slide the cursor around. Not sure exactly what you're looking to have the keys for...

Change DPI of an overlay element

Hi to all! My question is: there's a way (root-friendly) for resize or change the dpi of an overlay object?
This object is a banner which is generated from an app, but I don't want to hide it, but only resize it, and I need a way to do this, without modifying the apk.
Any solution?
