touch buttons instead - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

is there anyway of permanently attaching touch buttons to the arc screen for replacing the buttons on the phone? very much like in the img on the following page.

I use virtual button bar. But unfortunately it doesn't have that nice interface

You could use DooMLoRD's ICS alpha with the on screen buttons.

Maybe he maid it for his ROM?
But there is a manual way to do this too on any 4.+ ROM.
Look here.

It is for an advanced user I think,maybe I should wait untilled someone made it for cm9..

Defy+ CM9 On-screen button

Hey can anyone help me enable On-screen button on CM9 for Defy+...? I tried to do it myself but i just couldn't recompile it... So, can anyone help me by making it work, and in the mean time, share it with all defy/defy+ users...? All helps are appreciated.
I've attached the files from CM9 Defy+ Nightly.
*Framework-res.apk is too big, so i have to put it into a zip file.
Please...
Anyone...?
What's an on-screen button?

Oh, those... I kinda don't see the point in wasting screen space, when we already have hardware buttons, but... Nevermind, wish you all the luck

That's the default Samsung stock lockscreen. You will find it on any of the ICS Sammy ROM or GB roms with JKAY Deluxe.
thanks for the replay

im using pure ics 7.2 on my device.

I really like this lockscreen, but it only works on CM9. Is it possible to create such for LP7?

I agree, i reckon the lockscreens on the current ROMS should follow this format, its clean and elegant

Sent from my GT-I9100
No, that's exactly system locker. Archive contains only android.policy.jar and framework_res.apk - these are android system files.
Almost done. Look the same, but phone works as unlock and sms as camera.
Result - two unlocks and two cameras and i don't know, how to fix it...

[MOD] SkyRaider1.3 - Volume as Camera Shutter Button

this will allow you to take a picture using either the volume up, or volume down button. this is an edit to the htccamera.apk, so this does NOT mess with the volume settings.

In some other post you said that SR Zeus 1.3 is your fave ROM, most stable, etc. I totally agree, but your ICS theme for it makes it all the more special. Now with this mod, even sweeter! I'm currently rocking CM7 (i need a fully working camera, so no CM9) b/c I'm a flashing addict (ROM flashing, that is). Are there any support groups for those of us who can't go more than a few days w/o flashing? (Sorry for the off-topic).

editing of the .smali code in the systemui.apk
requires decompiling, editing the code, then recompiling.
that said, I've never tried to even do this MOD, if I did I'd make it, in the mean time, I can just make that icon transparent..
it will be a blank space if say the sync icon or something else is next to it

Alright thanks for the info. I'm currently using Amphibliam's warm theme and I'm pretty sure that mod would override any theme changes right?

Found a mod to add galaxy nexus like navigation keys to rooted stock rom

Sorry if this has already been posted or in wrong section, and I take no credit for it but I found it to be pretty cool. To add soft keys to rooted stock touchwiz rom all you have to do is add this line to the build prop and reboot.
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
Or you could just download "Soft keys" from the Play store!!!!!

You can do whatever you want.... I just thought it was interesting that it wasn't completely disabled and was easily added...If you don't like it or have something else you use, that's great.

Download it, get the apk and zip it in the ROM, or you can use TB to integrate it into ROM.

Why would I do that? I just edited the build prop and it's there...... I understand there are other ways to get soft keys. But I wanted them built in like the galaxy nexus so when I found this mod I thought I'd share......

Agree with you. I am using the same method on my HD2 CM9 for 8 months now.
My SGS3 will arrive today and I am glad that this method will apply to rooted stock rom. Was wondering if this method CM rom only or also stock rom.
Thank you for your information.
IMO this method is way better than some softkey apps because it doesn't use ram and is native like.
will this work on cm10?

I would love to disable my hard keys. I am new at this stuff, so forgive my ignorance.
I have a t-mobile unlocked 32gb white rooted with AOKP jellybean- 4th release
And I cannot find any other mods to the physical buttons, like making the home button a camera button. Not as important, but would love to know if you can tell me.
Thanks!

Look in the android development section. I made one to disable the hardware keys. And someone else made one to change home button to camera button.
