Is their a way to get extra menu buttons? (search & menu) Like I have on my Galaxy Nexus phone.

You're using a custom rom/modification. You would have to install mods on your tab.

I'm unlocked and running a custom rom. (Jr2 JRO0C3C)
I don't see the options for menu button changes or additions.

its not included in every custom ROM....the developer has to put it in

Menu is there, usually either on the upper right or lower right corner it looks like stacked semi colons.

:
The google search is at the top semi transparent.
Hope that helps,

I think you would need to flash the ROM back to stock.

From the sounds of it he already know something about android. Just leave it alone. He probably knows enough not to use it. Besides, the settings there are not dangerous.

Why does it matter if they are there or not? They aren't hurting anything just being there and if you don't know anything about android you are better off just living with it.

Go and open developer options. On the top right corner there should be a switch to turn it off. I'm on a custom rom and I can't remember if this option is on stock rom. Worth a look.
If he wants the screen full Jelly Beans he needs to tap the Android Version.

Entering developer menu, top right corner has toggle to turn off on stock rom.
You can switch it of in the developer option but the option to reopen remains I wanted to know how to remove the option from settings list as if it hadn't been opened at all?

It's generally harmless.
Just thought I'd point out that the hidden developer options thing is kinda new to android, previous versions (ICS and below I believe) all had the developer options menu there right from the start, it's only since jellybean that they decided that you need to tap the build thing a couple of times to make it show.
Don't worry about it

Actually it started at 4.2. Everything up through 4.1.2 had it showing.
Thanx for all your help, there's a lot of decent people on xda.

Few questions about N4

Hi folx.
I got this phone today.
So i have few questions about it. All questions consider rooting phone, but not putting custom rom
1. Is Light Manager working on this phone or we are doomed to use Light flow?
2. Can i put some shortcuts to unlocking circle?
3. How can i remove google search bar on stock launcher?
4. Can i add some more shortucts to switches menu in notification bar?
5. Can i change color on softbuttons?
If i remember something more, i will write it here
Thanks i advance
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Hi,
1) Light Manager works perfectly, I use it.
2) Custom rom.
3) Not possible if I remember right, need to use an alternative launcher like Nova / Apex or a moded stock launcher.
4) Custom rom or maybe with an existing mod (I doubt)?
5) Custom rom or take a look here but here the colors are limited.
Mainly what you are asking is in almost all the custom roms...
Thanks a lot for response!
Tell me, is it possible to add wather widget on lockscreen as widget?
Thanks in advance

Check out dash clock widget. If that's not what you're looking for and want full size widgets then try a custom ROM.

Many custom ROMs have a feature that allows you to put any widget on the lockscreen.
It looks like you need to start flashing!
Ahhh.. I wanted to use stock for few weeks.. Ive heard that there is one kernel that is working best with stock rom and makes battery life much more better.
P.s. can i recieve ota if i am rooted?
P.p.s. does build number affect ota updates (like on galaxy nexus)?

He was kind enough to leave the tablet UI in for us. Set it under rom control in settings.

I was using a custom ROM to move the navigation buttons but last week a few ROMs added swipe Ribbons. Follow this link for a Nexus 10 screen shot with a right hand Ribbon including navigation controls (this is not my screen shot). Ribbons default to auto hide.
With the right custom ROM and swipe Ribbons I always have a full screen with an auto hide navigation bar and notifications. You can just swipe down with one finger to have the notifications display at any time. There are multiple kinds of Ribbons and they are fully configurable (content, position, colors, autohide delay ... etc).
Check in the Developers threads to see which ROMs are supporting swipe Ribbons. I use Buttered +Aroma, follow the link in my signature. I have seen some bugs but for the most part they work well and have already become part of my daily-driver configuration.
My own set up uses a right hand Ribbon for navigation contols and Sidebar for left hand app shortcuts. I had already purchased Sidebar before Ribbons were available.

Haven't seen that on my system (stock TouchWiz), home screen items can be moved simply by hold and drag.

Must just be the Australian firmware. I tried the Telstra Firmware the same now using non branded stock firmware the thing is still there ... Sammy must think that we dumb aussies need extra help in arranging our home screens

[Q] 3minit Settings

I'm running Sacs ROM...is it possible to rearrange the icons on 3minit quick launch? I'm looking at the top (wifi, mobile data, gps, flashlight, etc.) I'd like to arrange those differently but don't see any way to do that.
Long press on the icon, chose delete then press the + sign too add app you desire.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk
Weird. That doesn't work for me. If I long press I feel the haptic vibration, but no options come up.
And just to be clear, I don't want to rearrange the app icons, but the green settings icons at the top.
Top right corner button, it'll open up more then push the pencil.
