I've been searching for a launcher or a Rom that has this ability?
Basically, to be able to move the top navigation bar to the bottom of the screen. And instead of swiping down, swiping up to bring up all the options.
Anyone have any insight?

you might wanna say "status bar" not navigation bar. And to do this, you would have to install a custom ROM, as no launcher can do this. I believe Paranoid Android and PACman rom does this by making the phone into the tablet ui mode and having the status bar on the bottom.

The launcher doesn't do this sir. that woudl be the SystemUI that controls the Status bar and the Notification Dropdown. That would have to be modifed to do so.

Woops sorry, I guess I meant Status bar, Are there any other VZW Roms that are known to have this option?
How come a launcher cant do this if they can modify other things?

The launcher IS the interface that controls the homescreen/app drawer (hence the name "app" launcher). By installing a 3rd party launcher you override the default TW ones. The status bar is located in another application that cannot be replaced.

Hi Guys,
I hope if any one know a way to hide menu bar! I did find online hide bar apk file but it doesn't work with Ice
Thanks
you could try honeybar. It may or may not work, only one way to find out.
I cant link you to it because its not allowed on this forum. Im sure you know of places to look for it though.

*** Important note for ICS users: Honeybar is unsupported on ICS and will not hide the UI bar. I have examined the source for ActivityManagerService and it currently appears impossible to stop com.android.systemui

Thanks for the information! I hope soon we will have hide menu bar for Ice
ADW Ex has this option I think. I haven't used it in awhile though. I'm not sure if the free version does or not.

Hello,
I also try to hide the status bar of Ice Scream Sandwich, I tried HideBar, Honey
Hide Widget, GoLauncher etc ... they do not work with Ice Scream Sandwich.
Did you find a solution?
Thank you.
PS: Sorry for my English, I'm French.
It's built in. Add a launcher action to the desktop called "hide status bar". Then click the new icon to toggle the status bar on or off. Then delete the icon when satisfied.

Could you please tell this in more detail? In my Android 4 ICS there is no "launcher action".
When you say menu bar ... do you mean the bottom home, recent and back buttons at the bottom (status bar)?
if so try GMD Gesture control (paid) and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28694868 is a free version for just hiding the status bar GMD Hidebar and it should support ICS
Why are you still on ICS though, may i ask ?
There's a thread with replacement SystemUI files, but they're not for CM7.
CM7 lets me do limited things with the status bar, but what I'm looking for is an ICS style action bar (if that's what it's called) with the MENU, HOME, and BACK soft keys centered at the bottom, and the status bar at the top.
Is it a theme or launcher? Can it be done? I think I've tried everything I can find except CM9. Am I expecting too much?

When I was grabbing the newest cm7.2 at succulent blog, I noticed he had some links to theme'ing cm7 to look like ICS.

Thanks much! There's one in there that I hadn't tried:

They aren't even centered in ICS unless you mean the phone style nav bar? It's built into the status bar just like in CM7.

You're right (of course) about CM7 and ICS.
I meant centered like they are in the replacement SystemUI I referenced in the OP.

Well... bummer. It's nice. It's pretty. But it's just Ice Cream flavored Gingerbread. It does have bigger buttons which is good. The status can't separated from the action buttons, though. At least from what I could determine.
I'll just patiently wait a while longer for CM9 to firm up. Or maybe try the new (rumored) OTA update in the mean time.
GO DEVS!
Is there any mod that allows to drag app menu button in touchwiz? From the right side to center like in cm10 stock launcher.

I don't think that you can change that in tochwiz. Why not try Nova launcher or Apex Launcher?
well.. no you can't move the Application Menu
That's may sounds strange, but I do like touchwiz. I thought there is a way to change the position of menu button by the editing some system files. Anyway, thanks for replies.

How can I replace the home icon of a UI?
You will have to root the Phone and use xposed to change the nav bar icons

You mean the app drawer? To change its icon you will have to use custom launcher. You cannot change it in stock launcher. Nova launcher is good. Try that.

Hi, dont't know If I mean what you mean, but in Comunity bulid is located inside "Launcher3.apk" in "\res\drawable-xxhdpi-v4\" and there are two files: "ic_allapps.png" and "ic_allapps_pressed.png". Is it what are you looking for?
Flash CyanogenMod.....It runs smoothly and there are more features like customisation than oxygen os
I would really like the stock Android status bar icons. My main gripe is that 4g/3g takes up a whole other icon instead of being combined into the cell signal. Any chance of modifying these without root?
This is always my complaint on Verizon phones. They insist on messing with the icons. I have not figured out anything yet, besides using a material status bar app from the play store, but the problem with it is the status bar will not go transparent on the home screen with Nova launcher. Once we can get Andromeda or Substratum support, it opens up a whole new world.

So close! This lets me enable/disable various status bar icons but not change them. Thanks though.
Found it! An app just called Status. Transparency on the homescreens only works if you have a non-live wallpaper tho.

Cool, thanks. I was really hoping to avoid just overlaying the system status bar, but that might be the only way unfortunately.
