Created a new thread to save you some effort
MUST be on JB 4.1.2 or earlier and rooted, if not
You can get JB 4.1.2 from Telstra, look in Android development and flash it via RSD Lite, You must have an alternative input method (I use gmd gesture control), not free but do not consume any screen space; Now add to the buil.prop at the end (qemu.hw.mainkeys=1) and U will have the status bar but not the navbar and no fc.
I have some issues with menu action (auto hiddes and must retry), solved with cm 10 instead of Telstra ROM, little more batt consumption and no blutooth music at the moment.
UPDATE: No need to use another ROM, In Telstra ROM go to config in Your phone, developer options, and check "Disable HW overlays", Ready!
You can use other ROM (4.1.2+) if U want, I like Telstra Rom cause it have good battery and all features in your cell phone works.
Can you expand on what issues you had after making the edit in rsd lite?
Edit: pls disregard. My tired morning brain was thinking SQL lite.

Where are you finding Telstra 4.1.2 for the Razr HD? I've done Google searches and found lots of dialog but no downloadable file.
How do you go about bringing the bar back up? Is it easy to add it as a power button menu item?
Edit: nvm i see the gesture suggestion now
Edit2: I've found an app called Taskarou, which puts a nav bar menu as a side of screen overlay. Check it out, send very promising.

Yes look good, but I like GMD gesture control because you can use gestures like an iPad or iPhone, no need to a NavBar tu pop up touching some place in the screen, well the matter is we have options
It's not a good thing to do. Next day one, you miss the bar.

Taskarou looks similar to LMT (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330150). But LMT has some lag and, at times, some bugginess. Does Taskarou tend to run smoothly for you?
Probably not possible to remove buttons without root huh?

Now that 4.1.2 is widely available to Verizon users of Razr HD in the US can anyone confirm that you can simply upgrade to 4.1.2 (retaining root), add qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 to build.prop, and then have the Navigation Bar GO, the System Bar STAY, and no FCs? Because that would seem to be a straight-forward solution to what should be an easy problem to solve. I know this solution CAN work because I did exactly this to my Nexus 7. It removed the NavBar (and kept the System Bar), extended the wallpaper to full screen and resized all the icons. I have never had a Force Close. Every app sizes correctly. I use Button Savior to put exactly the function buttons I want in the order I want them right where I want them on screen (normally right under my thumb). Works flawlessly on the Nexus 7. Hope with 4.1.2 it'll become easy to install on Razr Maxx HD.

Now that Root is available for 4.1.2, I tried this out and it worked.
You have to do the following:
1) Make sure to install LMT or PIE control
2) Make sure to install LMT or PIE control
3) edit build prop file qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
4) reboot
5) edit build prop file qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
6) reboot
You shouldn't get force closes. I'm on stock 4.1.2 rooted
Are you urging the installation of LMT or PIE because one of them is specifically necessary for this remedy to work or because you have to have SOMETHING to navigate with if you remove NavBar? As I said in the original post, I prefer Button Savior, which works fine on my Nexus 7. Would using Button Savior instead of LMT or PIE change the result of the mod?

Nope. I was only aware of LMT and PIE control as a replacement. I'll check out Button Savior.
To my great frustration, this method did NOT work for me. Getting rid of NavBar while keeping System Bar on my Razr Maxx HD is a near obsession with me at this point. Because I was on a leaked version of 4.1.1 and couldn't upgrade to 4.1.2 I used the incredible information available on XDA (thanks to all) to downgrade to 4.0.4, update the version of 4.0.4, update to 4.1.1 and then update to 4.1.2. I used the VZ OTA updates for every upgrade step. Every step proceeded without error. Once I was on 4.1.2 I used the new root for 4.1.2 to establish root, which also went smoothly. Then I followed the directions in the earlier post -- I installed Button Savior so I'd have an alternate means of navigation, installed Root Explorer, edited build.prop to add a new line reading "qemu.hk.mainkeys=0", rebooted, edited that line to read "qemu.hk.mainkeys=1" (no quotes in either case), rebooted. It should have worked. IT DIDN'T! My NavBar is gone, which is good. My System Bar is gone, which is bad. And I still get "SystemUI has crashed"-type errors. After all these steps that's the same result I was getting on a leaked, rooted version of 4.1.1. I'd love to finally get this right. How?

I am having same issues with my Razr HD. Mine is new which came with 4.1.2 already but I have rooted with the new method, have safestrap installed, all root apps work, root is solid. I followed these steps to a T:
1) Make sure to install LMT or PIE control (** I installed PIE, got it working)
2) Make sure to install LMT or PIE control
3) edit build prop file qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
4) reboot
5) edit build prop file qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
6) reboot
When it says "reboot" I just do a shutdown, wait 10 secs, then power back up (the Razr HD doesn't have reboot option when you press hold the power, only airplane mode and shutdown). I assume that is fine, but tell me if I need to be doing one of those soft resets (i.e. Vol down + power).
System UI FC's after it is set to =1. Not sure why. I have added the line above to the end of the build.prop file (in /system). Does it need to be at the top??
Also, wonder if the launcher has anything to do with it. I am on GO Launcher. I say this since the GO Launcher menu (swiping up on home screen) shows up just below the edge of my wallpaper but behind the wallpaper (so I only see a little bit of the menu then it disappears behind the wallpaper). I can still swipe up to pull a functioning menu in foreground, but this seems odd to me. Anyone else on GO Launcher getting this to work?
Would really love to claim the screen real estate the Nav bar takes up. I can't really understand by Moto/Verizon did this. They say the screen is 4.7, but with the Nav I bet you only have 4.5 or so....
UPDATE: I tried it with Apex Launcher and got same problems. I heard from someone else saying they also have issue on Nova Pro. So it appears not to be linked to launcher being used. I hope something can be found to make this work, having that extra room is SO nice

@india23... can you please enlighten us on the setup of your phone so we can try and understand why this is not working for many others on stock rooted 4.1.2?
- Do you have stock 4.1.2 received from OTA updated and then rooted with motochopper? If not, what do you have?
- What root explorer tool did you use to make edit?
- How did you edit the file, where did you place the new line, any spaces or empty rows before or after that line, etc
- what launcher are you using?
- what are the permissions on your build.prop file?
- anything else you think can help.
There are a number of us on stock OTA 4.1.2 that is rooted and this option doesn't work. It removed BOTH Nav and Status bar, AND there are System UI FC's. Many are saying this is not doable on Stock ROM but you are saying it works for you, so just need to try and understand how and why.

Yeah, I don't understand how it works but for some reason whenever I got the navigation and notification bar to disappear I just flashed the softkey mod and it appeared again . Hopefully someone more technical than me will make a use of it and design a better fix.

hi shem2409,
ok. 2 things:
- that is most probably my fault but the softkey_...._black.zip also gives you a black background for both, status and navigation bar. I could have been more descriptive in my post... sorry =)
- Ticklefish's Black status+ notification bar mod should give you in addition this:
Ticklefish said:
I've also changed the background of the toggles on the notifications screen to black as well. Looks nice, huh?

but since both mods change SystemUI.apk they are going to overwrite each other. and if you flash the softkey mod, the black background of the toggles should be gone? can you confirm that? (the bars will still be black - since you flashed the softkey_black.zip)
and there could be a problem when doing mine and ticklefishs mod in the opposite order: I've put the ".odex file" into the SystemUI.apk, so it runs with odexed and deodexed roms - but it deletes the SystemUI.odex during installation (this is needed so the one from inside the apk is taken by android). Since ticklefish's mod does not have that "odex file" included (it's actually "classes.dex" when it's inside an apk), it will not work if you install his mod after the softkey mod...
so as far as I can tell from here (I haven't tried it out - just have looked at the files), step 5 is overwriting the changes made in step 4.
cheers and thanks for the video tutorial!
If you were to flash smaller soft keys, would games and apps scale correctly or would the image just be stretched? So right now if the soft keys occupy 100 pixels in height, and was changed to 50, would games use the extra pixels? Would it be stretched to fit or would it run at a higher resolution? Or would there be a dead space?

I checked in a couple of games and the bar remains smaller in the games, so I guess the game is stretched to fit the extra screen space.

If someone is on locked bootloader there is a limited number of ROMs available at the moment and tbh I haven't found one with smaller softkeys yet. As far as I am concerned the only one for locked bootloader available is the one in the link under my video. I could be wrong though.
Well, flash the smaller keys separately.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2259460
So I will just say upfront that after constantly keeping up to date with the current ROM I'm using, my htc one freezes during installs of rom, tweaks, themes, etc. This freeze is apparently to do with Aroma and our touch screen.
The way around it (somewhat) is to pre-modify the config file in note pad, line after line and it's time consuming. Pre-modifying the config allows us to simply hit next repeatedly to quickly get to the installation process because all of the options are already set.
I created an app called 'Thaw It' to help create a config instead of manually editing it. It runs in Android. It's an app that reads the config, displays checkboxes and descriptions, allowing the user to check install options, and then finally outputs a new config file for Aroma.
Can I get some replies on whether this community would be interested in using my app? If no one replies I will assume everyone is happy with their work arounds (whether that be rebooting phone and retrying, or hand modifying the config with notepad).
Not sure if this thread is in the right place. It's purpose is to gauge the need for my app....
You can use the volume up/down keys to change the currently selected item and then use the Power button to change that item (click a button, toggle a checkbox, etc) to completely avoid having to use the touchscreen. It's my understanding this fixes the Aroma lockups with the HTC One. That's how I've flashed the last three ROMs and they've all finished fine, though Aroma still locks up at the end when you select Next to reboot. At that point you can just hold down the power button until the phone shuts off and turn it back on and you're good to go.
Sure, I would love to use your app.
Thnx

Yes I knew about the power and volume buttons being an option.
Here is the only bad thing about the app. It extracts the config file from the zip and reads it, but does not rebuild it into the zip when it's done.
So the last step is take the new generated config file, and drag it back into the zip to replace the original.
The reason I don't automate this is because it would take a very long time to unpack the entire zip, and repack it programmatically using the built in libraries.
still usable?

Amarullz manage to fix Aroma already for HTC One. It's just he still has some minor things to be tweaked before he officially releases it. Although he already released the beta version to the public.

FAQ - MIUI v5 (imanesaurus)
FAQ:
Installation:
1. How do I install this Rom?
Awesome tutorial by @itseasy21
If you already have Cwm, you can proceed from step 6 on.
itseasy21 said:
FOR FRESH INSTALL FROM STOCK ROM
1. Download the prebuilt release of MIUI you wish to install.
Optional: Download any supplemental 3rd-party applications packages for the device you wish to use. (You have to install a 3rd-party app to get the Google apps, like Gmail, Play Store, and Youtube.)
2. Extract the boot.img from the zip to your computer, you will need this file for fastboot.
3. Place the MIUI .zip file on the root of the SD card.
Optional: Place any supplemental packages' .zip file on the root of the SD card.
4. Put the phone into fastboot mode:
5. Open a terminal on the PC and enter the following:
fastboot -i 0xfce flash boot boot.img
fastboot -i 0xfce reboot
While the device reboots, press the Volume rockers a few times to load recovery.
6. Once the device boots into the ClockworkMod Recovery, use the physical volume buttons to move up and down. On most devices, the power button is used to confirm your selection, although for some devices the power button is used as a "back" button to go up one level, in which case the home button is used to confirm the selection.
Optional/Recommended: Select backup and restore to create a backup of the current installation on the Xperia SP.
7. Select the option to wipe data/factory reset.
8. Select Install zip from sdcard.
9. Select Choose zip from sdcard.
10. Select the MIUI file you placed on the sdcard. You will then need to then confirm that you do wish to flash this file.
Optional: Install any additional packages you wish using the same method.
11. Once the installation has finished, return back to the main menu, and select the reboot system now option. The Xperia SP should now boot into MIUI.

2. Can I install this on locked Bootloader?
-No, you cannot, because this Rom uses a different Kernel than stock. And it won't ever be possible.
3. Can I flash this over the stock Rom?
Yes, you can, as long as you have your Bootloader unlocked and Cwm installed. Please refer to question 1.
4. How can I access Cwm to update my Rom?
The Kernel of MIUI v5 doesn't have a logo or indicator. You have to press the Volume+ button several times when the phone boots up.
5. My phone is stuck on bootlogo:(MIUI symbol)
That's called a bootloop. As long as you can access Cwm, nothing is lost. Post here a detailed showcase what you did.
6. Nothing works anymore, can't even switch my phone on:
That can happen if you don't follow the instructions!
Download the latest Flashtool and a suiting .ftf file. Put that in the /firmwares folder in flashtool, then start it up and choose the lightning symbol and "flashmode". Follow the instructions.
It can happen that nothing happens. Then we cannot help you further, you bricked your device.
2. After the Installation:
1. I can't control my headset with it's button!
This is a known Problem with all unofficial (and buildon-) Cyanogenmod Builds.

That may be done via editing .xml-files inside themes. I don't know more about that, but you may find info on the Internet
There are themes that have the clock on the bottom right corner, but they don't have lock ring.

Yeah, but i dont know how...
Music player - double tap on lock
More important is how can i set to shuffle songs ?
Another one suggestion - is there chance for this blur effect in task manager or when open folder...?

The effect is probably theme - related. Look in themes/category/components/status bar
Shuffle songs via tapping on the album art in the middle of the 3 now playing screens, then it will look like this
Awesome song by the way

I already noticed that.
i don't know exactly how this one can be, maybe something wrong on my patchrom source, or maybe its a new feature for latest miui.
but if this is a bug, i will fixed it ASAP.

That's a bug i also face.
I tried to solve it via logging out my account and logging it in again. Didn't work. So I just disabled synchronisation.

After i update to 3.11.1 but its still showing 3.10.25 as current version in abour phone>MIUI version
Same here
Im afraid the multilanguage patch made the performance a lot worse
I will keep on testing, maybe I'll reset the phone and look if it gets better.
I mean there are no problems with using the Rom in semi german, but there's a resistance against that in my head, I want a fully german Rom that works fluidly even if I don't need it.
What do you guys think?

@madmiths i forgot to modified build.prop.
im just repo sync my patchrom, and build it
but all of the features is definitely miui 3.11.1, you can check all miui changelog here
those all feature is available on newest version of mine
@keenofhiphop
dont need to worry about that.
like i said it will be decrease your performance, it just a littlebit you almost didn't noticed that.
so if you gonna tested it, just install multilangpatch, and if you feel performance decrease too much just install the main rom again.

If you really want it to dissappear you can disable sync by going to settings -> Sync -> Enable Sync (Switch it to off).
I believe that this also affects your other sync accounts sadly (Google etc.) but it got rid of it and only comes when I try to sync manually.
Also a quite serious bug report, I got a call today, but the internal speaker didn't work for me. Not sure if I accidentally hit some setting, but it worked the second I switched to the loud speaker.

Seems like I was a bit too hectic... After wiping cache and dalvik cache it is normal that app starts take a little longer :/
I just have never experienced it taking so long, now everything seems to be ok again.
