Yes you can,but your phone must be rooted.
Go system/app/System Ui.apk and move to your phone internal storage or SDcard.
Move to computer,you must download 7zip.
Then open the apk with 7zip,go to Res>xHDPI>find the navigation bar,change it that you want.

Where does it come from ? Source ? Your personal android-policy ? What have you changed ?
I'm skeptical but understand me.

Haha, i understand I compiled it myself using the guide from ozz_y. It works fine just keep a copy of your original file.(just in case) it has very small changes. Just apply it and no need to reboot.

[MOD] .569/.101 Nav Bar 5 buttons

** I just made a Xposed module for the same purpose. I'll add more options to the module in the future so this mod will not be needed. Check out the module here. **
I've just made the 5 buttons navbar mod using the latest 4.3 firmware. Just flash it in recovery.
If you want to rollback to stock 3 buttons version, flash the 5buttons-569-restore.zip or 5buttons-101-restore.zip.
* Please pick the right file for your firmware version *

Thanks for mod..
But i don't know which cwm is working for stock 4.3???

Let me check it later tonight. If you want to do it manually, just delete SystemUI.apk and SystemUI.odex under /system/app/ in recovery and extract SystemUI.apk in the zip file and copy it to /system/app/.

Can you download the zip file and try again? I may have accidentally converted the script file into DOS format.

Perfect. Thanks.
Would be grateful if you could make it with menu in the right-most. Thanks again.

You can follow this guide http://rootzwiki.com/topic/30278-how-to-step-by-step-guide-to-add-menu-and-search-soft-keys/.
If you only want to re-order the buttons, then the easily way is the start with my modded SystemUI.apk and then change the res/layout/navigation_bar.xml.

You need first to decompile the APK using tool like apktool or Android MultiTool. After editing the xml, then you need to use the tool to compile the APK again.

Xperia V background

Hello, my Xperia V's just rolled to Android 4.3 and I'm not really happy with this update!
The main problem's the white background in tool menu, really annoying!
I'd like to have it black like it was in Android 4.1.2 but I'm not into modding or apk and so I can't do it alone
Consider that my phone's unrooted...

There is no easy way to root for you at this time. We just have to be patient.

Yes, that idea's good and I've already tried that.
Unfortunately I didn't find a black background working theme...
I'll try to make my own theme even if it's quite hard for me (never made one before!)

This has something to do with frameworks. I had been theming my phone since 4.1 and that wat not a problem but when honami came out the background for tools menu has something to do with frameworks. You'll need to have someone create a theme for you that would change the .png for that.

This has not been perfected yet since the text are still gray.
This is originally steveboss Theme. All credits goes to him.
What I did was to change the .png.
Here is the link:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/okb8g64edgzcvte/sk_cz_xperia_team.steveboss.themes.uniQueUni.apk
How to add it:
1. Download the theme.
2. If your using this ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2651397).
Please do the following:
- Open root explorer
- go to system/app
- look for the same name of the theme and rename it.
- paste the downloaded theme and set permission.
- Delete the original theme that you renamed.
- Reboot device and go to themes and select the theme.
3. If your using the stock rooted 4.3 ROM
Please do the following:
- Open root explorer
- go to system/app
- paste the downloaded theme and set permission.
- Reboot device and go to themes and select the theme.
Hope this helps.
Again All Credits goes to @steveboss
