You mean the Nav Bar at the bottom of the screen?
Multiple ways. Fors starters some othe rcustom AOSP roms that are similar to CM have it as an option.
If you want to keep CM, install the XPosed Frameswork and then get the Gravity Box module. It will let you add the Nav Bar, and customize it.

I used to be able to get many more button options for the nav bar on JellyBean ROMs but I seem to be able to add only the menu or search button to the nav bar on KitKat ROMs. Is there any way to add other buttons or would I have to edit the SystemUI.apk manually?
I'm currently running crDroid simple.
If there are any KitKat ROMs which support adding custom buttons, such as the power button, or apps, I would appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction.

You could install xPosed frameworks and use Gravitybox to accomplish what you are looking for.
Pacrom has a lot of those options. Its fairly new for 4.4 so it may or may not be stable for you, but ive tried it, and it works for me.

Hi,
I'm searching for a mod that I use on 4.2 for KitKat. I have a thin navbar with a recent button (the recent app-button is from G2 Xposed) and the thin navbar is a modified file I changed (because the G2 Xposed navbar height didn't work well, left a gap on stock launcher).
Do anyone know if there is something like this working for Kitkat?
Thank you!

Pie support(with installation instructions)

Is the first app confirmed working with KitKat? I would rather just replace a system file, but I'm not confident enough to edit the code myself.
Rather than using an app for it, which seems unnecessary for the small change i need.

Yes It works i've tested it myself
BTW used xposed module (Bundled inside UDN Refer post #2 ) to spoof the navbar.

What Xposed module? Everything I"m trying on the Verizon KitKat OTA isn't allowing me to add a Recents key (replace menu key with Recents).
Ultimate Dyanmic Navbar Lite adds the recents key ... but i don't like the way it auto-hides / covers things on screen.
Soft menu buttons blocks stock camera app buttons how to fix this issue ?
My phone is rooted and using stock 4.4.2 rom

the way i fixed it was to set size in landscape to zero but you will not have navigation bar in landscape. Use Pie as an alternative

In landscape mode positioning them at the bottom would also solve this problem
If possible how ?

How is defendant on what ROM you are running and depending on the ROM it will then depend on if you are running Dalvik or ART. If you are on a TW ROM and are not concerned with running ART you can use Xposed with the Gravity box module that has the option to customize the navigation bar. If you are using an AOKP or CM11 ROM you can also use Xposed with Gravity box module but the ROM itself may have an option in settings/personalization to customize the navigation bar. Hope this leads you in the right direction

how did you manage to get navigation bar on the ROM in the first place? With official stock 4.4.2 ROM you may still be able to use xposed installer im not quite sure again how did you get nav buttons in the first place?
Xposed with immersive mode. App settings module allows you to set full screen in chosen apps.
Hi there, it looks like my bottom part of my nexus 4 touch is dead which makes the navigation bar unresponsive, however i was able to make it work with the help of xposed framework by increasing the height of navbar.
My question is can't i make modification in the rom itself and flash it and make it a parmanent fix so that everytime i factory reset rom i dont have to use xposed framework? Because uninstalling the gravitybox app reverts the changes i made to navbar. If this is possible please let me know the procedure for the same.
Thanks
(Current using AICP rom)

You could install a ROM that has this option incorporated in it, like Chroma, for example. There are more such ROMs in the development section.

Well, another solution would be to decompile framework-res.apk and change the DPI from there. But, as I don't know much about coding, I can't really help you with this...
I just posted this question.
I don't like this big text Motorola uses, is it possible to change how they look to how stock android is? I couldn't find anything on xposed modules
You tried Gravitybox? It's been a while since I used xposed.
I know theming works and replaces those (you do mean in the status bar right?) Try flashing a ROM with Layers like cyanogenmod. Different themes will use different icons.
Yeah i fixed it by using a xposed module for moto devices
