The buttons on my fascinate broke, So I was forced to add Virtual Buttons/ Soft-Keys o the prop.txt. But now I want to make the soft keys transparent like on the Moto X. Does anyone know how to do so. (Running CM 10.1 on Verizon Samsung Fascinate)
I attached a screen shot so you can see.

I believe you need a ROM that allows for transparency adjustment. cm10.1 builds don't have that setting, it'd be pretty difficult to get it working. switch to helly bean. helly bean is based off of cm10.1 so it's stable but it's really customizable, and navigation bar is toggled in system settings, not through build.prop so it's easy
also, as far as i understand, in that rom anyway, transparency goes for both the status bar and nav bar. if you're okay with transparent status bar (i think it looks cool) then you can change transparency settings in the same place.
but motorola's customization as you said, only makes the soft key background transparent. if you only want that, i'm not too sure how to help you.
@LGC_Gamma
Unless you run xposed i don't think you can.
+1 for a ROM with built in navbar soft keys.
They have adjustable transparency levels
A 2nd choice would be ultimate dynamic navbar
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mrbimc.udn.lite
I know it has it too.
Or "gmd auto hide soft keys"
Can't remember if this did or not,, less functional to me,, so i uninstalled fairly quickly
.
Thanks for that, I'll definitely check out both of them.

Hi PA devs, i saw this a while ago:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/0...-button-and-icon-pack-support-in-version-1-7/
And i think the ability to change the navbar buttons when the phone is on the home screen would be awesome to have in the PA rom, no other rom that i know have this feature and i think it would fit the clean look of paranoid android.
This is just a humble suggestion, i really love you work. Have a nice day!
Navbar options in general would be awesome
Hi all,
I have a rooted Nexus 4 and I come from CyanogenMod (Android 4.3). The bottom half of my screen is crached so I heavily used the pie controls. I recently switched to OmniROM with LMT Launcher and I have to following questions :
The Pie is not accessible when the notifications drawer is open, is there a way to get the pie working here too?
The CM pie display the "Menu" button only when needed, just like the stock navigation bar. Is there a way to have LMT display the Menu button more intelligently?
Is there a way to shrink the Menu button from the pie to something really small, just like the real navbar ?
I've searched around for the solutions (Pie Launcher from the Play Store isn't better), but either the solution is not out there, or I don't have the proper keywords. (I can't post in the more relevant LMT*Launcher thread as I'm new here)
Maybe there is a way to use Paranoid Android or the CyanogenMod pie in Omni?
Is there any cc9 launcher apk files for mi a3?
Nova launcher pro, everytime on every phone ? Swipe up gesture to turn screen off, swipe down to show notifications. Widgets can overlap and resize freely. Has app drawer. I am not aware of other launcher with these (and many more) features.

You lose pie/Android 10 recents with Nova though.
For Android 9 I use Hyperion launcher
For Android 10 I use paphonb quickstep port (or lawnchair v2 early Android 10 release which is pretty buggy but usable)

I wasn't even aware that recent menu has changed with Pie. Just tried it and to be honest, I prefer the Nova recent menu. But maybe I'll give a chance to and try some other launcher with system recent menu support.

You will also need quickswitch magisk module to enable the recents view on custom launchers that support it

I have also nova pro. it really has cool features but i m looking for a launcher which without app drawer.
Stock launcher is good enough for me i like it, i use to use pixel launcher in my old phone, i already have pixel launcher in mi a3 so no need for 3rd party launcher

Nova settings -> app drawer -> gestures -> swipe to open/close. You can remove app drawer icon then. It's pretty close to the stock launcher behavior. Or, Nova settings -> home screen -> new apps -> add icons to home screen. Then you don't need to use app drawer at all, all new app icons will be on your home screen after installation (you will need to add existing apps manually though).
Nova since 4ever.
Swipe up for drawer, drawer have one page and everything in folders, double tap to turn off, swipe down for notifications , counter clockwise for settings.

Still like I said above you will lose the Android 9/10 recents view on launchers that don't support it. Nova being one of them
I'm a huge fan of Nova. It's the best launcher for Android ever made. But recently I've switched to Hyperion. It's really awesome. I really like the blur effect a lot. Immersive mode, gestures, screen lock-everything is there. It's the second best launcher imo.
I'll probably switch back to Nova eventually.
Another launcher I really like is Lean launcher. Super lightweight, super snappy launcher with not many customization options. Has Google feed & screen lock with double tap though. Allows you to hide apps & change the icon for individual apps.

Just wondering, what's so good on stock recent apps menu? I use it only to switch between apps. The omnipresent Google search bar irritates me, can it be disabled?

Just how fluid it is being able to open the app drawer from the recents menu by just swiping up on the dock and the way it fits with the gestures of Android 10 now aswel it's just way better in my opinion. But it is completely up to the person and what they prefer themselves. I can't tell you it's the best coz each to their own.
Also thats pixel launcher that has Google search. Aosp quickstep launcher does not have Google search in dock

I see, thanks for the explanation. So you basically like features which I prefer not to be present. Nova launcher with "old" recent menu seems to be the better choice for me. Anyway, going to try Hyperion, it sounds nice I'll give a chance to the quickswitch Magisk module too, maybe it'll grow on me.
Mine is Niagara, best simplistic launcher, best one handed launcher ive ever used.

I suppose you mean recen apps, because recent in general is the same.
+1 for Niagara and Lines icon pack.

Ya and the way you can access the app drawer by simply swiping up on the dock. It just all fits seamlessly with the new gestures
I'm looking for a way (a rom or other method) of getting the old vertical recents. Because I really want more than 1 ****ing option when switch apps, not a full-screen display of the same ****ing app I'm trying to switch off of. (Talk about idiotic design.)
Right now I have the Floko rom, which can switch between default horizontal, 1 app-per-onscreen recents and omniswitch recents, which kinda does the more-apps-to-choose-from part, but the double-tap to switch to previous app stops working.
Btw, In android 9, I could use the QuickSwitch magisk module, where I could select the "com.android.systemui" recents provider. But this provider is not available in A10. Sad life.
Bonus question: Any rom where there nav bar auto-hides and you can just swipe up from below to show it? (This used to be a feature in LineageOS called Expanded Desktop, but it's missing from Mi Pad 4 build of Lineage.)
I mean right now my "upgrade" to A10 so far is looking more of a downgrade than anything else. Which has been a theme with all kinds of things lately. Developers forgot to develop somewhere around 2019...?

Not much help for ya dude, but just saving you time trying the following rom : no recent options or nav bar hide in carbon rom
What you want is Resurrection Remix. One of the best custom roms out there as far as customization (IMHO).

I can confirm the feature is present in RR -- you just have to activate it in Settings.
