Is there a way to get an extra button in the navigation bar?
That is actually one button I use very much and holding the home button is annoying.
With root and Xposed you can either exchange buttons or add buttons.

"G2 Settings" will do. It works just as good for our Flex (almost).

That specific function doesn't seem to work unfortunately. It adds to the original front touch button settings but crashes.
Maybe there was another one where you can easily swap the menu with recent button. Look at G2 Xposed also and the likes. One of them has that option. I'm fine with the longpress myself.

There are a couple threads in the apps and theme section devoted to nav bar customization. Check them out. That may help.

I have read them all I think, no solution whatsoever.
I think this cool phone needs a recent button.
Without it it looks like my old phone.

Or just long press the home button. That will bring up recent apps. I use LMT launcher. (Pie) I have set a recents on it
Yes it does, make sure you have xposed then enable LG Launcher mods, the go to phone settings and display, there is now two options to modify button layout.
Related
Edit your build.prop and add this line:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
It's cool if you like to use LMT or PIE, that permit to use the full screen and keep the statusbar features.
Need a reboot.
Don't use "expand desktop" option.
Off course, activate another Softkeys/navbar solution (LMT,PIE...) BEFORE add the line in the build.prop !
LMT : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330150
PIE is roughly the same (less functions) as LMT and it's directly inculded in PA, RootBox...
Please report how it work on other ROM/Kernel.
Edit : Now using PA, just go to Settings/Hybrid Property/Interface dans set Nav. Bar to 0.
That do the trick.
Enjoy
Thanks, didn't think it was that easy.

Thank you for this. Great information. Sadly can't access that file yet until I am rooted, but I do look forward to it.
in pa you simply set navbar to 0%. done. no reboot needed. and pie is not part of lmt. lmt is a ready made google control tweaked a bit. pie is an open source control written from scratch. everything that goes beyond simple navigation is pie and was pies from the beginning. lmt took/replicated some of these ideas now, but please someone stop that meme already, i seriously cant see it anymore. everyday lmt gets another idea from us and people then come and say we got it from them is like a kick in the kneecap.

Doesnt make a difference in PA, same effect as setting the nav bar to 0% in PA settings the issue I have is that PIE works in basic mode where there is only the buttons no notifications when I activate it. Would rather have that function as I liked that part of it .
If you look at this thread again Moles, any idea?.

I use PIE included in Rootbox box and no problem, no lag or anything esle. It's a a quitte difficult at the beginning to get the right movement but a bit of training and it's good for me.

I use Button Savior with this line added to system/build.prop "qemu.hw.mainkeys=1". Works like a charm. Button Savior is available at https://play.google.com/store/search?q=button+savior and provides hidden soft keys navigation available with a simple swipe or by clicking an app icon. Works with any launcher.

Yes. It will come back if you delete that line.
Although it's been said already, make sure you have an alternate nav key option installed before adding that line.

cheers buddy :good:
I've been trying to figure this out for days. Thank you!
This mod enables the nav bar on the Droid Maxx (and proably the Droid Ultra), disables the capacitive buttons. And i recommend installing the app from the link below.
This mod uses the framework-res.apk from after Software Update 1 (12.15.15 for the Maxx). I do not know if it will work on the earlier verison.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2350732
!!!! THIS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP !!!!
But, it is pretty straight forward. Unzip, read the "read me", and follow the install instructions.
If anyone would like to help and show me how to make this SafeStrap flashable I would really appreciate the help. And it will allow this mod and future mod to be more user friendly.
Your instruction in the readme is a little off, "cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework/" should read "cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk".
Otherwise, it did enable the bar, but did not disable the capacitative keys. Also, if anyone uses the long press on recents for menu key emulation, it does not work on the on screen buttons.
Finally, you can use the shell command "echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/nutton-backlight/brightness" without the quotes to turn off the capacitative lights, instead of using the app linked.
Otherwise, thanks for the mod! I'm kinda a fan of the onscreen buttons, just haven't had the time to figure it out myself.
Here is an attempt at a flashable zip, haven't done one in a while and can't test as I don't use safestrap atm.
Feel free to test at your own risk, the most likely error is that it won't mount system correctly, in which case it won't install anything. In that case, just mount system manually and try again.

I made an xposed module that will do it.
Here you guys go:

Also, you can rename /system/lib/hw/ lights.msm8960.so to lights.msm8960.so.bak to disable the lights on the factory keys if you want to.

Works great, just a half black nav bar background but i am sure I can make the transparent myself. I think the half black is my launcher, switching it changes the height.

Check the OP for the 4.4 zip. I flashed the framework and it works great! I have shownav installed. Not sure about getting rid of the lights. I still use my hardware and virtual buttons, so I didn't change those.

Cool, I just have a Droid mini so I would need the xposed app. Unless the OP wants to put out a little tutorial on the framework edits. I can do it myself.

Its super easy. Decompile, go to res/values/bools.xml, find line that has show navigation bar change to true, then find show menu bar and change to false. That's it.
Greetings,
Looking to add a launcher to my stock hd+... are there any that would add the android home row to the bottom that way I can stop using the "n" buttom? Thanks to all suggestions.
I don't think what you are looking for is a launcher. You are basically looking for an installable navigation bar. I don't think one exists for non-rooted devices. But I haven't exactly searched either.

Exactly, pretty much I'm looking for the standard navigation bar with "back" and "home" although I'm not sure thats what they are called. But do you know of one for "rooted" devices?
Well, if you root you can install the CyanogenMod operating system which will give you what you are looking for. Check the Development thread.

Thanks, I finally found it! I still prefer the extra options of the Advanced Power Menu though, and that doesn't require another widget taking up screen space. BTW, that app is working well enough that I removed APM+ from Xposed.

True. Completely agree.
Strange, since this is done by Samsung that it won't inherit theme settings.
For now I'm trying to "copy" the theme while changing the colors - It looks ok, and I really like the possibility to add widgets to the lockscreen (even having to swipe down to access it). The lost of quick accessing the camera is a drawback
