[Q] Rearranging softkeys - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Is this possible? There would be nothing better than to arrange the keys the way HTC has them as that's what I'm used to.

Yeah I completely agree, I'm about to upgrade to the Nexus and I want to be able to add the "Search" key (which I know is possible) and then rearrange the order of the keys.

[Q] DUMB QUESTION: Can't figure out how to access bookmarks in ICS stock browser?

I've tried looking thru all the settings and menus?
The stock ICS browser can't be THAT poorly designed can it?
Can anyone please help me find the button to show bookmarks?
Where is it hidden? C'mon Google, bookmarks should be a 1 touch access feature. Why did you bury it?
Hold the back button.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
a ha! there it is! thanks!
I wish they would put it on the side thumb shortcut thing.
It is next to the tab button? Not sure because i enabled lab quick control.
If you enabled lab quick control, you cant access bookmark easily. One way to do it is by long press back button then swipe.
Bookmark button has been added to the lab quick control on 4.0.3.
Also if you press the tab button at the top the bookmark button is visible at the top of the tab selection screen.

System applications without menu icons

Hello, I've got my nexus running xenon-hd and I've used the Rom settings to restore the traditional button arrangement I had on my captivate as you can see in the screen shot. My question is, with a menu button and search button now, is there a way to get rid of the three doors that appear on gapps like here in the messaging?
On jelly bean on my galaxy s 1, they weren't there because the phone has physical buttons. Not really a big deal, just curious. Thanks

I don't think it uploaded the picture correctly, trying again.
Nope, no dice, will try from my computer later, but for reference I mean this http://img.tapatalk.com/5224c050-7b59-f27b.jpg
Of course this isn't my phone, I have "menu, home, back, search" as the soft keys. But the three dots beside the attach icon are what I'm asking about removing

[Q] Remapping buttons?

I want to the left button to go back and the right button show recents like God intended. Samsung is confused about buttons. Possible?
I see CM 10.1 and other ROMs let you remap some keys, but not back.

Replying to my own post in case it helps someone else: This is possible with slim bean, which let's you remap the back key.

Hardware key mapping.

Hey everyone! I've been looking on how to change my hardware keys. As in I would like to get rid of my navigation bar, which I know how to, and make my power button the home key. Or maybe something like one press goes home and then maybe a double tap would shut the screen off. Any suggestions are welcome. Thank you.

The easiest way is probably to use a Custom rom which supports hardware key remapping like this one:

You also can use Zip Themer. like here:

Now I seen the key mapping feature in du. However I can't make the lock button go to home.

4.4 softkey mods

Are there any 4.4 based ROMs with the option to change order of the softkeys?

Never mind 'order', what was Google thinking replacing the 'settings' action with a 'task manager' instead? Huh? Why would you ever want that? Coming from a Note 2 this is laughable, and yes I already had the 'three dot' option with my rom there too.
I've got an s4 and before that the s3 so I'm really used to having my buttons go menu-home-back and the stock layout of back-home-recents really messes me up, I always end up opening recents when I'm trying to go back.
