Is there a way to back up and restore app layouts yet? Have tried searching but not found an answer that's good! Any help and sorry if it is simple and my searching was rubbish.

You have to go and post at the other nexus 4 section for q&a. This section is strictly for development of Roms, kernels, etc.

[Q] how do you change the color/images of soft keys?

Hey I have the cm10 nightly rom and i was wondering if there was any way to change the color or images of the soft keys to something different.
Thanks in advance!

You can do it by replacing the images in the systemui.apk or might be able to do it through a theme as well.

Pull it to your PC, add a .zip behind it, edit, remove the .zip

This a link for a simple how to! If you want to pull systemui will need a apk tool. You can do search on that. I hope this helps.

One of my favorite guys for all things Android. Should work the same on your nexus 7 as his Galaxy Nexus. Maybe not the Exact same thing but similar concept and a good start.
P.S. you could also just flash aokp and it should be in settings.

There is a mod that you can flash that allows only the center button to be used. Its in the Themes and Apps section of this forum.

Compilation Roms

Hey folks, when I was on the T989 GSII there was a group of awesome developers called All Star Developers that did a couple compilation ROMS meaning (CM, PA, AOKP) I looked through the development threads and didn't see anything quite like it. At least not anything that specifically states it's a compilation ROM. Am I missing anything? Or do we just kinda lack that style of ROM on the Nexus 4? If indeed we do have, what would you consider to be the most stable one?

Keep looking. It's in Android development.

Ok. So they're not in original development... Who's the developer? Are those relatively stable here on the Nexus 4?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
With all due respect, you should go to the development section, find the ROM you're interested it, and start reading, rather than relying on someone explaining it all to you. All the info is there.

Yeah its stable like everything else on this phone and I have used PACman ROMs they are great and I think they are only in android development that's because the dev didn't create all three ROMs

Of course it won't be original. It's all based off other dev's work.

I guess that's true. I'm just looking for opinions (reviews) from people who may have used them and have some experience with the ones available. Just a general question for the "General" thread.

That's probably the best explanation of the difference between these two threads. Thanks I'll remember that from now on.

More Volume steps

I want to know if there is an easy MOD I could flash on my nexus 4 that would add more volume steps to my volume controls.
The volumes steps on this phone are really big. One step is really to low and the next one is blasting my ears.
I searched a lot on this forum and I couldn't find an easy way to do it. I don't want to edit hex files or anything like that. So this is why i'm asking if someone know really easy way to do it. Or if there is a custom rom that does just that.
My nexus 4 is rooted and running the latest crDroid (CM version).
Thanks a lot for your help
