If you are running cyanogenmod you can just disable them in the power menu when you hold down the powerbutton. I also see there's a few apps in the play store that are supposed to be doing what you want but I never used any of them so I can't comment on that. Search Google for something like "nexus 4 disable soft keys" and you will find a ton of information!

You can also install some xposed framework modules that allow hiding the navigation bar, like gravity box, for example.

Hi,
Look if you are rooted, then go for Paranoid ROM. It provides you with a feature like gestures for the buttons..
So, they only appear when you make a particular gesture!
Go on! Game oN!

This is what you want.
Auto hide softkeys

If you are rooted,
Just try Full screen app from play store.

Asus screen shot ability on Nexus 7?

Is there anyway to get the Asus screen shot shortcut (press and hold recent apps) on the Nexus 7?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Press Power and Volume Down simultaneously.

I am aware of power and volume down, but the design of the buttons combined with the folio case make it hard to access them. I am looking for an on screen shortcut like Asus uses on the TF300. Thanks.

Do you mean something like this. I don't know if you can add to the power menus on stock.

Yes, something like that would be great.

What ROM are you using.....I doubt it is possible on stock.

You can do that with AOKP

I found an app called "Screenshot It" that adds a shortcut to the notification area. Thanks everyone for the input.
yeah AOKP has a power menu option to add it when you hold the power button, very easy to use
If your device is rooted, you can use a program called utter! (a voice activated assistant with a lot of voice commands that runs in the background). Shake your device to wake up utter! and say "Take a screenshot". Most commands in utter! do not require a rooted device but a few do.
If your ok aokp, you can change a softkey to a screen shot one. Really cool.

Something not right

When I turn my 9505 off and back on apps that are on the home screen reset and go back to the drawer, what could be causing this problem.

Seem Odd
-Go to Applications manager
-In the TW launcher clear all data and clear all defaults.
-Restart and reorganize the layout ( If u have multiple launchers you will be prompted to choose a default one )
-Turn off and back on and see.
Hope it helped
Seems to have done the trick for now. Will keep an eye out. Thanks

This is from the galaxy s3 days, it also works on the new note 10.1 as well. Just follow the directions in the link. http://brandtkrueger.wordpress.com/...ation-buttons-on-the-galaxy-s3-requires-root/

Tried adding a menu button but it only works for Google now with a long press.
Edit: menu button applied with xposed and xblast module. It does work in apps but not on the home screen.

Except for our devices to disable MENU & BACK you edit sec_touchscreen.kl and it only has 8 lines in it.

Volume slider popup location question

Hello
I have a simple question.
I might be wrong, but im writing this because i dont think i noticed it before.
In the stock video player app, when you press the volume keys while playing a video, where on the screen does the volume slider pop up show up?
For me, it shows up in the very bottom of the screen in the middle. In both horizontal and vertical views.
Is this normal? Because i could sware remembering it being in the top-middle portion of the screen...
Can anyone go and check in the stock video player and see where your slider pops up?
Thx in advance..

You can do so. I followed this video. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9mhcvWgAULI
Edit: the keys won't be transparent though.

If you are rooted you could install Xposed Framework and Gravitybox module.
Gravitybox can enable navigation bar amongst a lot of other tweaks.

Thank you very much. But still got 1 question, how could I move the menu button to the left side?
(I don't want to enable custom key since it's not useful to me?

Hmm, I don't know how to do that.
I'm using the default setting so: Recents - Home - Back - Menu
I have menu set to always show but the only buttons I can change the position of with Gravitybox is swap Recents and Back.
