On screen buttons - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I'm getting a nexus 4 today and I'm curious which ROMs have the ability to hide or make the on screen buttons smaller? I know paranoid and aokp do but that's all so far.

Third page bump

Xylon does, CM probably has expanded desktop.

Any MOD can do that ?

ParanoidAndroid AOSPA as well

Thanks for the replies. Does anyone know for sure if CM10.1 does that? I have to have a rom that does that I hate the buttons so big.

[Q]Does Rasbeanjelly have brightness slider?

Does Rasbeanjelly have brightness slider? I really like this feature and use it more often than i thought i would, now i can't live without it. can anyone out there using rasbeanjelly share a screenshot or just in words what kind of notification customisation options are available? thanks
No slider I'm aware of, just an option to toggle different levels of brightness in the notification bar.

I've been hearing alot about rasbean lately.
Could it be used as a daily driver?
Thanks

It has the slider on the status bar. Beyond stable is a good description.

I mean the AOKP style slider, but this should work. Is there a theme out there which has a percentage to indicate the brightness? I use to have one of these but then I lost it.

No. It has the cm brightness slider. And I don't think there are any mods that add a percentage to it.

I've been using it for just over a month trying both Franco's kernel and the trinity kernel with very little time on the stock kernel. I've had three crashes in the last three weeks. Two of which may have been my fault for not fixing permissions after flashing a new kernel.
Edit: fixing Sig in text issue.

And as YOU can see it has ROM control which is part of AOKP not CM and rascarlo only uses CM code which means no part of AOKP is available.

it has nothing to do with ROM control. this theme is built with the t-mobile theme engine, so in theory it works on any rom with that feature: pa, cm10 and most other roms. all i am doing is a proof of concept, it is achievable, even though most themes dont have them.

[Q] Rom with navigation bar mod

Hi, I'm looking for a ROM where you can tweak the navigation bar like in AOKP.
Unfortunately I tried last AOKP build but the battery life is horrible (even with franco's kernel).
So do you know any rom with this feature? (Or a flashable zip)
CM10.1 has it.
Where?

It isn't. It's a cherry pick.
It's CM 10.1 + Cherry Picks (Unapproved additions that will be added once approved by CM team). So basically u get features faster that are not yet approved because someone on the team didn't approve of it yet.
Thanks you guys, its perfect!
Should i use the stock kernel?
What do you use?
CM10 stock does have it, in the power menu options
I use Matr1x
Just flashed 20121211 eurosskank cm10.1 and I dont see the option...
Yeah, that is the main feature I am using AKOP for.
If there was a stock ROM with Nav bar button and size mod and status bar mod only, I would totally hit that up
Anyone know how?
looking for the rom that lets you add and rearrange the soft nav buttons. is codename android coming out for n4?

It's there. You have to flash jellybro which is a unofficial release with cherry picks. Check android development the thread is in there. You can flash that Rom on top of Cyanogenmod.
I don't understand why people flash the official one when jellybro has cherry picks of cm features not yet merged yet. Jellybro is so much better.

Adding an 'Menu' button to the nav bar

I want to add to the nav bar in the nexus a 'Menu' button like the button in the Galaxy s3.
There is a way?

Yup custom roms, currently on cm10.1 and I do just that to my nav bar.
I'd also say include a search, it barely takes up any room at all compared to the other keys. I have mine set up like my old Wildfire. Can you not do this on stock rom? I never kept it long eneough to check.

No, you cannot. Most custom roms (cm, aokp, etc) have this feature though.

4.3 Roms and Tablet UI

For those of you that have played with some of the new 4.3 ROMs have you seen any with tablet UI functionality?
Have any 4.3 roms even been released? I thought they were still working on everything
Waiting on PA personally

No, but one of them has expanded desktop, if you're interested, which works great with gmd gesture control. It's ratcav's rom.

PA is out so I'm going to give that a try. Might wait a few builds as the first one has usually has a few bugs to work out. Running pure stock right now just so I can say I tried it.
Wondering if anyone has found a ROM yet with tabletUI?

Can I have a backup of both TW and AOSP?

Can I backup a TW ROM and an AOSP ROM and switch between both whenever I want and it run smoothly no matter which one I'm on?

Halo is interesting, but I'm not a huge fan. I really don't have a use case for it. I also don't really like constantly having the halo on my screen when I'm not using it. Lots of people seem to love it though.

From what I've read it doesn't have to be on your screen at all times.

I guess I'm just not a fan of how multitasking is implemented with Halo. I applaud the developers for making it, but it's just not for me. Honestly, I wish Google would just add an app drawer to Android that can be accessed from within any app. Part of my problem with Halo is that I have to preconfigure which apps I can multitask with (notifications notwithstanding), rather than being able to fire up any app I want regardless of what I happen to be doing at the time.

If you want that you should try out Floating notifications then.
