Can I "hide" the soft keys without pie? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I like having the soft keys always present, as compared to using pie, but I want 3 dots instead of actual icons all the time so it doesn't feel too intrusive. Is this possible?

Depends on the ROM. On most of them you can just theme the navbar icons. So, yes it's possible. Check out the themes and apps forum section.
cheers

To rule out a glitch in the theme, change themes and see if it's still there.
Sent using witchcraft via XDA Developers Premium App.
It was there when I was using kalaga's theme on leeroids froyo rom, it's not a glitch, and if you pull down the notification area it shows the battery use and you can click it and open the app...
If it's not a theme thing then is it an App or add-on you have downloaded / installed?
Is it part of the Froyo ROM (I tried LeDroids GB ROM and it had no such icon)?

True, I'll check through the installed app's etc and see... I do hope I can figure it out as its quite annoying

Getting a Nexus 4 soon 1 question

So I have never had a nexus device or used one with the on screen buttons but I have one question. Is there a rom to change the size of those buttons? They just look excessively large. Half the size would be nice.

Paraoid android, Your able to customize the on-screen buttons with it. There's also AOKP if your interested
Custom ROM's usually change that yes... or learn to tweak it yourself.... and then teach me.
Do you have any screen shots of the buttons made smaller?

This wasn't demonstrated on a Nexus 4, but just to show you that it's possible (using AOKP, I also marked everything you need to know in red.):

Tablet navigation bar on CM10.2

Is it possible to have a navigation bar, tablet style with CM10.2?
I've seen several images, like this:
{
"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"
}
but can't figure a way to install it.
Does anyone here have it and can provide me a link or something for it? Would love to use it instead on the regular 2 black bars, one navigation and one for notifications on the up side of screen.

Wrong place for this
Use Pac-man instead it has all those features
Im satisifed with CM10.2, everything is working nice... Just want a .zip to flash and change it. Thought it would be possible

No, you need PAC or AOKP. And this isn't the right section for this

Hello! There is something bothering me. Take a look:
On nougat, the recent tabs looked like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
On Oreo, they are all the same color:
That's horrible! I could easily find the app I wanted based on the color, without having to read the name. Any way to get that back? I'm ready to root, get magisk, whatever.
