Disable Capacitive Button Lights
If you'd rather have the capacitive button lights off:
Download "Night Mode" from play store
Set slider to 100% and start service
Go to settings
Disable "Minimum brightness" and "notification"
Now it won't mess with your brightness but disable capacitive button backlights

Correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn't you just choose the option "always off" in system>display>touch key light duration in order turn off the capacitive button lights?

I've tried, but the PNG's don't appear to be in res/drawable-hdpi. I'll look through the other folders tomorrow to see if I can find anything.
If I can, I plan on making another mod for Gnex style buttons.

I followed a guide to do the edits and you probably did too so its none of our works really.
I spent hours figuring out how to successfully recompile framework-res.apk. Then I had to figure out how to get it to boot. Then I had to change the height and figure out how to disable capacitive backlight.
Instead of being selfish, I released my mod to public.

Go to freezas system apk thread and use that to figure out how to decompile/recompile system apps.
Decompile framework-Res.apk. do all of your editing. Then you can recompile and push to /system/framework and boot the phone. If you did everything correctly, the bar at the bottom should reflect the edits.
Sent from my Sprint SGS3
Anybody can do this btw. Decompile framework-res.apk, look for the Navigation bar bool and set it to "true"
If you want different pngs for the buttons you need to look in SystemUI.apk
Here's a blank zip you can use
http://db.tt/mmOQPE5Z
Extract it and add a system folder then add an app folder within it (if modifying anything in /system/app or a /system/framework folder if you modified anything in /system/framework) and place your modified apk's in the appropriate folders
Zip up the META folder and system folder and flash in recovery

I was gonna package it and post it here (with an additional edit to the /keylayout folder to turn off capacitive keys and remap home to be a camera key) but my wife's car broke down yesterday and I had to deal with that.

Ok, I understand there are many threads as to softkey management. I, for one would love to hide these soft keys and I think I might have stumbled upon a way that it might work, but because I am not a Dev I myself don't totally understand, how Android works, so hopefully one of the Dev here could help understand what is going on here. So I have been doing a lot of searches to find a way to hide these keys, along the way I stumbled across a few threads where users were loosing their softkeys after using some of the softkey mods, I remember reading some where a user lost his softkeys do to flashing the Deodexed version of the mod while running on a Odexed Rom. I thought I would give this a try I downloaded Deodexed version of the softkey mod from this post:
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1394639&highlight=soft+key) and installed it on my ARHD 2.1.3 Odexed Rom. Behold upon reboot I had full screen! Great! Just a few problems though, I lost not only my softkeys, but also my notification bar at the top. I also could not set any wallpaper but only a live wallpaper. I was able to navigate without any issues as I downloaded and installed Button Savior from the market before installing the modification. Any suggestions from Dev's as to why, how, or if this could work would be great.
Not a dev but I made mine disappear when I was manually editing pngs in SystemUI.apk to mod my softkeys. I must have did something wrong.
I believe adr and his Bamf team are including this in their upcoming rom
I think they are mapping it to power and vol up or down
That would be great! I like the full screen it just looks amazing! I don't mind using Button Savior.
So you suggest removing the softkeys by breaking them and the notification bar..

No not by breaking them, I was hoping that a Dev would be able to see how or why they get removed and in doing so find a solution to hiding the keys altogether.
Eventually. Took Honeycomb a while. Supposedly the tricks in Honeycomb were patched.
They just need time. They already have abilities to rearrange and select which keys are visible plus themes and all that.

Actually seems like a pretty nice idea. Does the OS continue to draw behind the buttons, or does the screen effectively stop where they begin?
I would rather a gesture on the softkey bar (flick up/down) to show/hide it. That way you still retain the functionality of the keys, but at the same time you can utilise the full screen when you want to. Remapping these to the hard buttons sounds horrible (unless I misunderstood that?).
If it was transparent and you wanted to click something at the bottom of an app, android wouldn't know whether you wanted to click the app or the buttons.

we already have a transparent status bar successfully mod over in the themes section. and no you dont lose any function. the bar is still there, its just see-thru. so it functions identically to current usage.
anyway hiding the softkeys is something i would love. and google could have been creative, perhaps 3 finger swipe to make them appear, etc. that way 2 finger pinch to zoom wouldnt confuse it with a 3 finger swipe, twist, etc.

This would be great. I use ADW Ex on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 LTE, and that has a swipe for its lower dock bar works great. When you don't want just swipe down, when needed swipe up.

All three of these are available in 36 dpi the second post!
An additional style has been added to the second post not available in 48 dpi unless it is requested. This one is 36 dpi and is BLUE ICS Soft keys. Soft Key Layout is (Back - Menu - Home - Recent Apps)

I believe it was an AOKP thing that was ported to a few CM9 devices... But there were mods that enabled total theming of the bar that essentially rewrote the layout xml file, rewrote png files and reordered them after a reboot. This is what I'm doing manually...

Loving this! I turned off the hardware key lights in Settings->Advanced and they also stop responding so everything is now done with the nav bar just like in the gnex and the menu button shows up in apps accordingly. The back button also turns into a hide keyboard button when it is open witch also feels better. Having the recent apps button available with a single tap really helps when multi tasking and not having to press the physical home button to go home (it also stops working) feels better than having to press the button.
Good job! I hope you keep maintaining this mod as progress continues!

Yeah, nandroid every thing before you flash. This won't brick, it's not that deep, but, you'll def boot loop if you don't flash it to the proper ROM or Build specified.
I just put up another flashable in the OP as well as a screen shot for it in the 2nd post. TW buttons with a slightly different arrangement per special order by zanderman112 who is a terrific dev to this community, so giving back to him was an honor (even though I know this guy could do this crap in his sleep ). :highfive:
In case anyone wants to take any of these flashables and make their own layout or whatever, these pngs from atticus182 are all ready to go.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1413582
sometimes you have to rename things, but you'll see in the navigation_bar.xml file in systemUI.apk that conversely, code can be edited with the names of these files. (personally, it's easier to rename these pngs than it is to stare at notepad ++ and code... just saying).

There is a link on the above page that has a file MiNCO, but I want to ziptheme it for my PA version. I didn't realize it wouldn't work, so I tried to just use that ZIP and it says there is no theme control file. What can I do to create one?

So if I use Metamorph I ought ot be able to figure it out, okay, sounds good. I will give it a go.
I was able to ziptheme my navbar softkeys, but two of the softkeys didn't change. Any idea why that might happen? Any advice? Specifically, the Search key and the minimize keyboard key.
Right now I am working on changing the status bar icons/clock. We will see what happens.
Edit: well, it looks like my zipthemer zip didn't have a minimize keyboard softkey. gonna have to find one lol.
Can anybody point me in the right direction for editing the power toggles in the notification bar? I've noticed that the galaxy S4 from T-mobile has the data toggle removed and i would like to add it back so that i completely eliminate the need to install 3rd party apps just for that toggle. If anybody knows what files i need to edit or a link to a good guide for this phone, i would greatly appreciate it, have a good day and thanks in advance for anybody helping.
PS - If i manage to get this done, i might even make a flashable zip with that addition included.

I think some of the custom TW ROMs have the data toggle added back in if I'm not mistaken. So you might just be able to pull the elements form another ROM and insert them into the stock one. (Or just flash one of the custom ROMs)
Cyaogen definitely has it included so if you can,t find it pure made for the stock TW ROM you can at least get the elements you'd need from CM.
Good luck!

I'd like to have a navbar, and disable the hardware buttons. It has been done on older notes by adding "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" to the build.prop. However, I did it on a themed stock rom (deodexed, rooted, of course), and all I got was the wonderful "System UI has stopped". Any ideas? I hate accidentally hitting menu or back
As a side note, it would be awesome if someone made this work with stock android theme and swipe up from navbar home for Google Now. :fingers-crossed:
T-Mobile Note 3 of course.
Well, I tried modifying the SystemUI.apk to work (same method as the S4), but no matter what I do, SystemUI.apk keeps force closing without even adding qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 to the build.prop.
I was copying META-INF and AndroidManifest.xml from the old apk to the new one, then signing the apk, but no dice. Hmm, there must be a way to enable the NavBar on the Note 3. All the files are in the stock SystemUI, except for the actual button icons. Should the icons go in xxhdpi, or xhdpi (the S4 tutorial stated xhdpi)?
Maybe I just suck at modding apk's. Any ideas?
Also, sorry for bumping my old post, but no one has yet to figure this out
I tried several root apps. Several xposed modules. And several zip packages. Nothing.
Would love this feature as well tried apps and modules as well and a no go a navbar would make the phone perfect to me

I got it! It isn't nice looking yet, but it works!
Well, I have the buttons more center, but not center. It is the menu button that is pushing everything over to the right. I set the android:layout_weight to 0.0 in the @id:rot0 and @id:rot90 in navigation_bar.xml, but the menu button is still pushing them all over.
Any ideas?

How did you get them on? Let me know and I can poke around to see if I can make it behave better in terms of centering.

Well, first I used the attachment from this tutorial here.
To just get it to work with TouchWiz's navbar background, copy everything in the drawable of the tut's attached folder to res/drawable, replacing existing files. Then copy the drawable-xhdpi into res; there isn't a folder named that, so just copy it over. That's all that is needed to make System UI not force close with qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 in the build.prop on the Note 3. Now recompile SystemUI.apk, set permission to rw-r--r-- and replace the old SystemUI.apk on the phone.
Well I have them centered in portrait, haven't worked on landscape yet. I just copied the first LinearLayout from the Nexus 5 into the navigation_bar.xml, and made all the resources point to the touchwiz equivalents. I have stock android nav buttons because I was trying something
You can decompile the SystemUI.apk I attached and look at my changes to navigation_bar.xml. Keep in mind my SystemUI.apk is from Jedi Elite ROM, but it is pretty much stock so I don't see it ruining anything on another stock rom, except for any theming.
I think what I am going to do is just port the AOSP navigation_bar.xml. I have no idea why the nav buttons don't want to be centered in TouchWiz, other than they lack spacers in the xml. Probably easier to just port it anyway.
Write up here.
