Is there an app that puts navigation buttons on my screen? Mine were disabled during root and stuff... I don't want to fix the hardware ones... I just want buttons that are always on the screen. The app I have right now just uses a small icon that you press every time you want the buttons
And isn't there an app that blocks ads everywhere?
Thanks... Lol

Here's an ad-blocker:

as for your button, I think that maybe a framework modification may be needed. (unless there's an exposed module for it)

Yes, but it's on its own status bar at the bottom of the screen (for tablets).
CM7 has it in the pull down status bar also.
It's call the Notifiction power widget.
It's under CM settings> Interface

Of course it could be, you just enable it in cyanogen, but since my phone has those keys, I don't really need it personally.
If you mean porting to something not running cyanogen, that would require taking it out of the cyanogen source and adding it to whatever you are using.
Im creating this firmware for an outdated phone because people are having problems with hard buttons so i figured a feature like this would help
Alrighty il take a look

Ah, that makes sense why you wanted it now. The only problem I can think of is the latest cyanogen uses 2.3.5 android os, so if you are porting it to something else not at least using gingerbread, it could be problematic with some of the libraries/dependencies and require massive backporting.
0uch, alright so I would have to rebuild everything to gain a feature like that?
Mmm yeah I think I'll stick to button savior...

Hey,
Is there a way to make the task bar( tray) invisible on every app.
Like it happens in video full screen function, can make this to be for all the apps?
thanks,

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.

Screenshot above ^^^
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.

Ok, so something like that would work for disabling the hw keys.
Good to know.
Did you by any chance try it the way I suggested? It may be a little cleaner, though I don't think it makes a difference.

I've been having a strange issue with the multitasking window. I hit the "edit" button to add apps that I want to multitask, but when I drag an app into the drawer it magically switches to a different app. It doesn't seem to have any kind of pattern either. It will just switch to any random app. Anyone else had this problem yet?
This appears to be a common issue with many of the multi-window mods.
I recommend the multi-window module for the Xposed framework as it corrects this problem.
It can be found here:

You need to clear data for com.sec.android.app.FlashBarService.
Then it will be fine.

On an unrelated note (or related to the navbar), can anyone tell me if it is possible to have a transparent navbar on stock UI with no root/unlocked bootloader? I tried using Nova and google launcher but both seem to have a blacked out navbar but transparent notification bar.
