Is it possible to rearrange the Nav bar? This phone is so large that it's a struggle to use with my right hand. So is there an easy way to have the back button on the right and multitasking on the left? Thanks in advance

You're going to have to wait for a custom ROM for this functionality because here is no way to do that on stock. Custom ROMs however have been doing this for years.

Is there any way to hide the menu bars? The bottom and top one?
oh yeah, this is excactly what i wanted to ask!
Bottom bar is easy to hide - Several apps available on this site. Cant think of them right now at this moment. I also would like to hide my top menue bar but have not found anything yet. Don't think that it is possible withouth WIZBAR advance.
Here it is for hiding bottom bar. Just follow this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=378446
I also want an easier way to hide top bar without having to use Wizbar advance
Edit: I can't guarantee that it will work for the Diamond though. Works on my HTC Touch Elf with WM 6

Is it possible to get bottom soft keys instead of having the soft keys on the status bar? It kinda make my status bar full. Or maybe can I have a guide on how to change the softkey icon to a smaller icon so that it doesn't take much space?

Hi
I have just installed avatar rom on my n7000
i have also nova launcher
I did for the first 24 not have any soft keys
but suddnely the soft keys appeared on my screen?
how can i get rid of them?
Go to settings, hybrid properties (paranoid preferences) then slide to the right and go to interface and in the navbar size, make it to 0% and you'll be rid of those soft keys. Hit thanks if this helps.

strange
i restarted the phone and now the keys are gone
i can not find a way to get them back (not that i want to)
http://prntscr.com/1axw02
these are the soft keys i am talking about.
i guess i am happy now, since it solved itselfe.
but i dont know how i got them to appear or disappear.
Yes those keys are the one's that we get with paranoid android based ROMs usually, they have been ported to the avatar ROM i guess. To disable them if they appear in future, look out for a setting related to navigation bar in the settings. Btw how's the stability and battery life of the ROM?

Thanks (i will push, not just say).
I have only had the ROM for a day and that day i have been home... So cant speak about stability and battery life.
I have ordered a new battery aswell. So hopefully with the new battery, new rooted phone and new ROM i will have a great phone
I am really tho looking for ROMs for Galaxy Note that is slim and makes it really fast and smooth.
That is the main goal why i rooted the phone. I hate that it lags and takes time to open simple apps like the borwser. Wait for it to load to be able to type an URL...
I would really love to be able to swap the back and recent buttons on the nav bar so that the back button is on the right side and the recents button is on the left leaving the circle home button in the center. This would make one handed use for me super easy as I rarely use the recents button one handed but the back button is my most used button more than home.
is there a way to do this and RETAIN google launcher? I dont want to resort to using another launcher if I dont have to. I was hoping maybe a root enabled app of some sort possibly?
You don't need to change launchers to swap navigation bars. Those two are completely irrelevant.
This is a custom rom feature, it is not yet implemented. In the themes and apps forum, you can find a tutorial on how to do what you're asking for.

Its fine I was on mobile earlier so I couldn't go out of my way to find the link. Do note that it may not be available for the ROM that you're using but the tutorial is there on how to do it. I can do the edits for you if you'd like but I'd need framework-res.apk and systemui.apk for your ROM.

I just flashed the MOD zip and it worked. stinks that you have to clear cache and let everything rebuild just to do the mod because if I want to switch back Ill have to do that over again. I'm thankful for this option though! Thanks again

That's pretty cool!
I did not know that existed. I found it on my Moto X Pure Edition 2015.
I don't know if I could handle status bar and menu swaps, but still cool to know.
I found this thread searching for navbar swap options.
Thanks!
Well in recent new update in redmi note 10 Pro Max. They made the navigation bar bigger than before and it is taking more space than before so I want to make the navigation bar smaller is there anyway if there is please tell me. Also another problem is the font before update every every word in my phone would be displayed as applied font but now in Chrome or Gmail the font is displayed as default font.
Gesture navigation is so much better, make yourself use it for a week to get used to it and you'll never go back to buttons.

I know it's good but I could use the buttons for you know like shortcuts like if I hold the recent button it would take a screenshot or if I hold down the back button it would stop the app forcefully so in that way I prefer buttons but I have used this navigation gesture for a week and it is good I guess but I would still prefer button, well it's my personal opinion I don't want to force my opinions on to anyone.

With long gesture left or right you can also kill app or something else.
