Alternate app picker CM10 - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know if it is possible to change the default app picker on the cyanogen ROM? I don't like having to click more than 1 button to select the app that I want to use. Aokp and slim both have the option that I am looking for, but I prefer to use cm because LTE seems to work better for me.

[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.

Transparent home/back/multitask bar on PA?

Hello all,
I'm running Paranoid Android and am absolutely loving it - but I'm looking for a way to possibly make the bottom bar (back, home, multitasking, notifications, time) completely transparent.
Anybody know how?
Thanks,
Kevin
You need a launcher like Apex or Nova that supports it.

It works on stock launcher as well. Just go to the hybrid settings, go to apps, find the launcher and set the nav bar transparency.

Just go to themes and there you'll find only one theme available, that one will give you all those things you seek in transparent!

Softkey Button App?

I saw a screenshot somewhere of a soft key replacement app. The soft keys were red and appeared on the middle left side of the screen. There was home, back, and recents i think and they kind of went in a circle. I tried to draw what i remember it to look like. It also looked like it had a holoish theme to it. Anyway sorry for being so vague but i don't remember anything about it. If you know what its called I'd love to know! Thanks for your help!

Is there no app that can do that? Is it only in Paranoid Android?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
ParanoidAndroid has a feature called Pie that looks like that. If you're not using PA, then you can use an app called LMT which is a similar replacement to PA Pie.

I never said it wasn't. All I said was that ParanoidAndroid had a feature that he described in the OP and if he wasn't on PA, he could use LMT (on a different ROM) which is a similar thing to PA Pie.
It's better to use paranoid rom to get it becuase on paranoid its built into the rom. If you get a app like that i believe it consumes alot of ram and everytime you kill tasks you have to run the app again.( please correct me if i'm wrong)

[Q] Which rom should I get?

I am thinking about getting a custom rom but I want to find the perfect one for me.
It must be stable enough to use has a daily driver, change softkey icons, colour changing to holo bars and icons, a feature like Paranoidandroid where you change the UI and other popular features.

Parandroid is my favorite have used CM but have really enjoyed PIE and Halo on Parandroid. I would use the 4.2 rom for now I used the 4.3 but It's just not ready yet. dont get me wrong I'm sure it will be but I'm back on Parandroid 4.2
Yeah, can you give me the link to it so I can install it?
I will have to downgrade the radio and bootloader for this one.

Customize on screen buttons on CM 10.2?

I was wanting get to customize my nav bar a bit by adding a little bit of transparency and/or changing the color. However, I couldn't find a setting for that and Google didn't help either. Is there a way to do this without having to switch roms?

try any launcher, they all have the feature you want. :good:
Nope, switching launchers will not help you modify the navigation bar, as that's part of the system. This type of modification requires a different ROM if you want to be able to easily change it.
