Quick controls for the Launcher

I'm using AOKP and would to disable the navigation buttons at the bottom. Thing is, the only way to navigate without them, is using the shortcuts in the power menu :-/
I remember seeing a mod that gave us quick controls(the same kind seen in the browser) but for use as a navigation radial in the homescreen. I can't find the mod anywhere though, so was hoping someone here could point me in the right direction?
Thanks

Hiding the nav bar with power menu / gestures.

Does anyone know if it's possible to hide or show the navigation bar on demand? I'm running bugless beast nightly.
I found another thread, flashed the zip, got soft bricked. Anyone know of an app or another way to do it?

AOKP if you're willing to change ROM's.

yes, aokp, slim ics, foxhound(theoretically all the roms sharing aokp settings) will do the job. they allow u to control or hide nav bar in power button menu.

Awesome. Thanks guys... I'll change up and give it a shot.

[Q] Is there a way to disable the softkeys all together?

I am on the paranoidandroid rom and was wondering if i could disable the softkeys completely and rely on the on screen nav bar

First off just a correction ...
softkeys are "Software Keys" so the "On Screen" keys are soft keys .....
As far as disabling the Hardware keys, there used to be an app that let you disable buttons, but not sure if it works on the sgs2 ....

I'll look around for one, thanks

I was wondering the same thing earlier... if your using nova launcher hold down on the home screen and select shortcuts then activities then select Galaxy sII settings. Then just dissable key backlight.
Hope that helps
Edit - after re-reading what you wrote I realized you meant how to completely dissable them. I'm not really sure how you would do that. Well, good luck

Navbar question

Hello to all,
Is it possible top hide navbar when is not needed? Just like when that thing hides itself in videos or YouTube app. I am on JB androidme rom.
Thanks.

I use LMT and disable the navbar
It is great

You can only hide it completely and use an alternate gesture launcher etc. It won't actively appear and hide unfortunately and no hack has added that exact functionality.

+1 for LMT and Full Screen Toggle...awesome to have the full screen in all my apps now.

What is LMT?

PA has an expanded desktop option, that makes it full screen at will.

If you're rooted there are nav bar variants you can flash, for instance, I'm running one with menu button dedicated at the bottom left

At the bottom of the first post there are zips for different nav bar combos, i believe that's what i use and it also includes both the search and menu buttons you want. If you flash it, thank the dev
