[MOD] Navigation Bar for CM10

Flashing this will enable navigation bar, and disable capacitive touch buttons on Nexus S.
Make sure to set the Backlight Dimmer delay to 0 using the NSTools, so the capacitive touch buttons don't light up.
If you are using the navigation bar, I recommend setting the LCD density to 200 or 190. Edit it with Rom toolbox, or
navigate to /system/build.prop/ro.sf.lcd_density=200 edit it with text editor and reboot.
Always do a backup before flashing. It should work for any JB rom.
To disable navigation bar, reflash the rom, restore the backup or flash disable nav bars.
You are doing this at your own risk.
Its based on Brainmaster's tweaks for android, all thanks goes to him.
Added files, they set dpi to 190 or 200 or disable Nav bars.

Screenshots please.

You get these three buttons on bottom of your screen.

Or you can just add
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
To your build.prop and reboot. It works with every ROM I think. To disable, just set it back to =1.

But that won't disable the capacitive buttons

First time I went from 240 to 200, I wiped googleplay, everything else worked okay, as far as I remember.
If you get FC's wipe that app.

If BLD is set to zero, this will just turn off the backlight right, but they will still work when pressed. Is there a way to disable them for real otherwise what's the point of the nav bars, right?

Oh OK. So the zip turns then off already. Question though, in the BLD settings, setting it to zero turns off BLD meaning the buttons are always lighted up. I set it to 1 to turn it off almost immediately.

Yes you are correct, I used NSTools, and set it to 0, I assumed its the same with CM settings, I will try to fix it. Thanks
EDIT: OK no go, CMsettings work like that, if its set to BLD 0 its always on, NSTools looks like overrides it.

great! this is working just great. really thanks! but i don't see any problem by leaving screen density to 240 though. been opened all apps installed on my ns
quick edit: i am using CM 10 nightly

What's about the menu button? Is it build in the apps? Can I configured them?

So all you have to do, is disable BLN, and put below code(script) in init.d?
Code:
echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/backlightdimmer/enabled
echo 0 > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/backlightdimmer/delay

Works for me at least

Tried the mod last night and it works! Unfortunately, my fingers are already too big for the default PDI, and reducing it to 200 won't really help me very much. Thanks for sharing this anyway. I'm sure some users have been looking for this.

[Q] How to stop battery charged notification and screen turn on

Hello,
My S4s (i9500) screen keeps coming on when it reaches full charge, with a notification to unplug my charger. This wakes me up in the middle of the night, I'd like the phone to remain face up during the night...is there any way to stop this from happening?

turn your phone face down?

Thanks, need an answer to my actual question though, about how to disable the screen turning on when this notification happens.

You'll have to wait for a mod. There is no stock way to do that.

1.Head into the Settings menu. Samsung's done things a little differently and changed the way the settings menu looks, so you'll need to hit the "More" tab, and then get into the Software information.
2.Look for "About device" at the bottom. Tap it.
3.Hop on down to the build number, and tap it seven times. One. Two. Three. Four. Five. Six. You'll get a little prompt saying you're about to unlock the developer settings. Hit that button one final time -- seven! -- and they're unlocked.
Now you've got developer settings on the Galaxy S4.

Hmm this is a pretty good workaround, the screen still comes on but turns off on it's own and pretty quick. Thank you.
Guess I'll have to wait for a mod for the screen not to come on at all or to disable the beyond useless notification altogether.

If you have root, grab es file manager or root explorer or something and go to system/media/ui/ and delete whatever sounds you want deleted. Make sure to back them up if you want them back.

Lightflow kills one hand operation

I don't use it very often but I do like one handed operation. Today I realized that it wasn't working so I started undoing all the mods/setup I've been working on. Turns out it was lightflow. I can disable it in accessibility options and one hand operation immediately starts working.
Are there any other decent led control apps to try?
Thought I'd post here to hopefully save anyone else the trouble if they run into the same problem.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

It seems like having anything enabled under Accessibility kills one-handed mode.
But Light Flow is working for me without the Accessibility setting. There's a new setting called Notification Access in the Security section.
Try enabling Light Flow there and see if it works. As I said, mine is working that way, but I'm also rooted, so maybe that has something to do with it...

Yeah it was enabled there too. Maybe there's just something wrong with mine because my wife just informed me that hers is working find and all she did was install it and forget about it. I had to enable options I've never used before like the one to make the led flash even when the screen is on, in order to get or to do anything at all.
I'm rooted too.

Make sure that you have the LED settings under 'Settings' > 'Display' to have "Charging" and "Notifications" checked along with the checkbox in 'Security' > 'Notification Access'.

Lol, looks like that was my problem. For some reason I thought they all needed to be turned off so I did that initially and didn't even think to revisit it.
Thanks.

So we don't need to enable it in accessibility? Cuz that ruins most features. Makes you disable them.

Mine is currently disabled in Accessibility and enabled in Security -> Notification Access. In Display -> LED indicator, I have Charging, and Notifications checked.
Working like a charm.

Works good this way with or without root. Just installed.opened.enabled the notification access. And use. Doesn't need enabled in accessibility.

In my S3 they had to be disabled in stock settings to work. In this they need to be enabled in stock settings for it to work. I know lightflow told me to disable it in stock settings on the S3.

back button LED for notifications, anyone?

FWIW, I FOUGHT WITH THIS FOR A WEEK AND GOT NO WHERE. THE TASKER PROFILE LISTED IN THE REDDIT THREAD BELOW WORKS GREAT ON MY ROOTED PHONE. ALSO, LIGHTFLOW WORKED ON MY ROOTED PHONE. SO I AM JUST GOING TO ASSUME THIS REQUIRES ROOT
So, i have been searching and reading and asking around and I STILL cannot get the power button LED to light up with notifications.
I have lightflow installed
I have the notification and accessability settings turned on for the app
I have back button led 1 and 2 turned on
I have them turned to "always" on for notifications (I dont expect it to pulse)
I have the brightness set at 255 (But i have tried all other numbers in between)
I am NOT rooted
I am on stock 4.4.2
all other LED notifications seem to be working just fine and are the colors/speeds I set them to.
anyone able to get it working? not sure what else I can try to get it working.
if you have it working on stock rooted 4.4.2 let me know what options you have checked and unchecked in the "settings" page.

guess I'm the only one with this problem eh? lol

I didn't think it did light up. Only time mine does is when unlocking the screen.

Haha, on AOSP ROMs I used tasker to run a script that changed the values in the file that controlled the 2 back LEDs to 255 when I got a notification. Then it cleared the file, and so on until I turned the screen on.
I don't remember it exactly, and I'm pretty sure it would need root.

interesting, I poked around for a bit in tasker and didn't see anything in there for the back buttons. if you happen to come across this, or remember it, please let me know.
edit: i found the profile on Reddit to do this. going to give it a try in a little bit

Oh, please link me the reddit profile. It is probably better than mine. Haha.
Edit: Found my profile. I set it to trigger at a notification event. Works for me. (Remove the .txt at the end if you want to load it into tasker and look at it).

here is the reddit thread. looks like it requires Root so I didn't even try it.
http://www.reddit.com/r/lgg2/comments/20769k/how_to_use_tasker_to_control_the_back_button_led/
but thanks for your profile. I loaded it, and it isn't giving me any errors, but I'm still not getting it to work. I have it set to trigger when a notification event happens...I set Hangouts to the "owner application" and still not getting it working.....I have almost given up on this working without root.
thanks for you help though. if you think of anything, I would greatly appreciate any help, but dont bend over backwards for me...haha

what the heck is screen overlay detected on axiom 7

It about stops me from doing uploading pictures, downloading. It's driving me crazy anyone else having this problem?

Yea lots of people are. Anything that changes the status of the screen like some kind of screen filter like twilight, night owl, any of those things, can mess with this. It's been pretty annoying. I have Twilight set to a timer to eliminate blue light on the screen before sleeping and I have to freeze and defrost it several times a day. Apparently it's an issue with ZTE. There is a thread over there about it.

I guess that it should actually be a security feature to prevent an overlay app from abusing any open apps below it... but it is really annoying that the ZTE integrated feature Mi-POP will also make this warnings display... you can simply deactivate it through its notification bar shortcut but it's still annoying...

I'm going to guess you have MiPop enabled? is so turn it off and your screen overlay issue might go away.

Screen overlay is new in 6.0 to prevent apps from creating an overlay and giving permissions to themselves. It's not an issue with ZTE.

Yes screen overlay is new. Came from a N6 and never had this problem on stock 6.0 from Google. Facebook messenger will not do anything other than message can't call, or send pictures. Yes it is a problem with ZTE

Go to the "Apps" setting, and then click on the "gear-shaped" setting button to go to the "Draw over other apps" menu and turn off all apps that are enabled. Go back to the "Apps" setting and click on the app that needs permissions modified. When all the permissions are updated, go back and enable the "Draw over other apps" for those apps you disabled.

Use this app it will get rid of that annoying overlay issue.
