[MOD][Deodex][SustemUI][.2.254] Stock JellyBean/KitKat Navbar - Xperia SP Themes and Apps

Huzza! New, 3-Button Navbar for the Xperia SP
Any damage caused to your device is not my fault, but I will try and help you fix it!
So, with the latest .2.254 Firmware there seems to be no variety of navbar mods :crying:
I decided that wasnt good, so heres the "Nexus Style" Stock JB/KK navbar. 3 Buttons, simple!
Here is how to install it:
Download the SystemUI.apk from attachments or mirror
Put it on your phones storage, doesnt matter if its SD or Internal.
Find where you just put it using any root-access file explorer.
Optional but Recommended: Backup the original "SystemUI.apk" found at /root/system/app/
Copy my APK to /root/system/app/ and overwrite the original
Set permissions to rw-r--r-- if it has not done so already
Reboot and Enjoy!

This is incompatible with every firmware apart from 12.0.A.2.254, please dont use it on anything else because it will bootloop. (Is 2.245 an exception? Im not sure on that one)
Here are some previews, it won't be transparent like in mine. I achieve this using XPOSED framework, go search for it!

Im afraid im still rather new to making these tweaks, this is the first real project I have done. Thus I dont know if this will work, ill test it on my device soon. For now though, heres a placeholder where i will put the link if i get it to work.
Edit:
No it didnt work, all i can suggest is to try this tweak: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45793071&postcount=2
But be careful, some users report bootloop and it also changes your audio menu and settings switches.
You could also use Gravitybox, an Xposed Framework Module. That has Height Change features for NavBar.
Sorry about that, if anyone could point me to how I can edit navbar sizes then by all means do so!

@Pavilo-Olson bro
De Compile your framework-res.apk and go to res/values/ and navigate to dimens.xml. Open it with Notepad++
Look for the lines 'navigationbar height' and navigationbar width'
the default size would be 48! just reduce it to what ever you want!
For Example height = 28 and width= 24
Save the changes.
Then Compile framework-res.apk and sign it then use it., :good:

Thanks Rajeev your a star I'll do that later!

Because u need a fully patched framework-res.apk. That means u can edit ur framework-res.apk without any bootloop.. Making a fully patched framework-res.apk is not easy i think.. I just giv u a little tutorial to make Small dpi navigation bar..
And u can find a tutorial in Xperia Z thread about " How to Decompile framework-res.apk without bootloop ".. just search that and try again

Haha many thanks for you but i think you don't need to make it for existenz bcause gravity box can modified the status bar to be look like kitkat

Your screenshot isn't displaying for some reason, just a broken file icon.
