[Q] How to edit Home Button Swipe shortcuts? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How can i edit the SWIPE shortcuts for the Home Screen button?
I only have Google now...but there is space enough for 2 (or 4) more shortcuts.
I searched all internet without finding at least a simple talk about this.
The idea is this (you can see the link at my signature):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Best regards,
Sebastian!

If you're up to flashing a custom ROM try AOKP. It gives you the option to change and to over 10 different actions. You can also add the ring to other soft keys.

I see. What about CM?

AOKP. One of the main reasons I use it is to do just this. That and add menu and search buttons.

So there is no way to do it without rooting?

Rats! I think that would be a cool feature to be able to utilize.

I submitted this suggestion to Google.
You can Vote (make it stared) if you want!

Most custom ROMs have this option to customize the navbar. AOKP, CyanogenMod, Paranoid Android, and many more.

Well, I'm assuming that you need to edit SystemUI.apk to add the button. I'm sure if you Google it, you can find a tutorial on what to edit in the apk.

[Q] Google Calendar not syncing

I updated cm 10.1 and I went into titanium backup and uninstalled the apps that come with it (Apollo, default brOwser) and it comes with another calendar app that I uninstalled because I use google calendar from the play store. I uninstalled some data thing as well which got rid of the calendar sync option when you go to your account in settings so now my calendar is not syncing. What do I do besides factory reset??
Just dirty flash the rom and stop messing with things if you aren't sure about the effects.

Means flash without wiping.
So just flash it on top of what I have now? Will I lose any apps or settings,launchers?

Do you know if the app will make it so the menu button is shown all the time, or any other tweaks like that, or is it just themes? I want to make sure before I buy it.
