I just want to use the Nav Bar in AOKP, instead of the hardware keys. I figured out how to disable them, I just cant turn off LED. Is there a way to do it, but still let it work for notifications?
Here you are my good fellow. Hope this is what you're looking for

Change the custom Backlight settings in display to have 2 settings one on all 0 and one at 100 and then put it into auto bright and lock phone till deep sleep and turn on and there you go

oh i was completely confused by your thread. But in aokp i believe you have to create a shortcut to it on your home screen. In CM10 its under advanced in the settings menu.
Sorry i cant remember, i dont use aokp.
In AOKP JB, the easiest option is to go to settings, device options, sensors, and uncheck "enable keys backlight."

So i figured out how to add the onscreen softkeys by editing the build.prop and adding
"qemu.hw.mainkeys=0"
at the bottom; however...I have a question, how to you add buttons using a AOKP/AOSP rom? or even using the build.prop? because Im currently using the AOSP Hercules CM10 [JB 4.1.2] ROM and I'm confused...I honestly want to add a "menu" button and also turn off the physical capacitive key lights. if you guys can help...you'd be my hero..

yup I'm using a E4GT, but i figured it out. After you edit build.prop the setting for the navigation bar is there, but now my only question is how do i turn off and disable my capacitive buttons completely and turn the button light off? ive done almost everything and i can't seem to figure it out. I tried editing the "Button" Values and setting them to "0" under settings>display>automatic backlight>use custom>edit other levels, but no luck. I even went to the root folder system>usr>keylayout>sec_touchkey.kl and erased all the text and the result is that they don't vibrate but the menu, back, and search buttons still work...the home button is the only one that doesn't work. I mean it's not a big issue but the light gets annoying and I just want to complete shut off all capacitive physical controls...can you help me out?

Rooted with AOKP v. 4.1.2 CM10 [10-20121024-SKANK-epic4gtouch]
In the advanced section of the settings menu there is an option to turn off the cap. button lights. You're on the right track with erasing those values, but you have to reboot afterwards to get it to take effect.
What are you using to edit those values?

Go to system/usr/keylayout/sec_touchkey. Select sec_touchkey and delete the four lines. Reboot and you will be good to go.
Edit: I just read you already did that.. I dunno man that's what works for me.

The biggest app I use is Flashlight/Torch. I use it 50+ times a day and cm10 has the lovely feature of being able to remap a hardware key to it while still in lock screen. I have looked through files to see how they did it but I cannot find it. I want to be able to turn my flashlight on when in lock screen. I have been turning it on by the menu button. Is there any way I can do this on TWJB?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I could write an app to turn it on, but you'd have to have the app as a shortcut on your lock screen. Cm10 does it through the ROM so it's quite simple.. don't think it's replicable b tw.

It bothers me when I'm playing games on the phone and the bottom lights come up all the time. Is there an app that can turn the lights off for me?
Or is there a tasker program that will allow me to turn it off? Any help is appreciated!

If you are on cm10 then settings and device options and sensors and back light de-check the box.

Thanks! Worked perfectly. Guess I should've messed around with the settings a little harder :facepalm:
On the other hand is it possible to keep the capactive buttons on the whole time as long as the phone is on?

You mean permanent?

Yes there are settings for it that keep them on shorter or longer. My wife's relay uses this same setting to control the backlight on the slider keypad as well!
Look in DISPLAY and see if there is "touch key light duration" I have stock rom (actually wicked, based on stock) and I have 1.5 (default), 6, off, on as the 4 choices.
Yea permanent as long as the screen is on though! Thanks for replying man but I'm on CM10 that rom has a slightly different configuration.

No don't think so. Might be an app for it or mod with in the forums, maybe elesbb can jump in, he knows how to write code for such a thing I think.

I think there called proximity sensors or the home, menu, search and back keys.. Anyways I got the pacman rom and i want to use the pie controls as my home buttons instead of the actual sensors.. How can you disable it if possible? Running to pacman 4.2.2 with cerux kernel

There is a mod in the themes and apps section that has a mod called disable soft keys which is a flash able zip. Just flash it and put electrical tape over the soft keys so they don't look ugly

The proximity sensor is at the top of the phone used to decide when to turn the screen off when the phone get into proximity of your face.
Light sensor is also at the top of the phone and is used to adjust the screen brightness based on how light or dark it is around you.
The four buttons along the bottom are not sensors exactly. They are simply soft keys. There is a flash able mod to disable them. Search in the PAC man ROM thread I'm sure others have asked the same question.

I have the nav bar on and the buttons at the bottom disabled but the lights still work. Do anyone know how to stop this because its really annoying and defeats the purpose of the nav bar.
Or does the Nav bar defeat the purpose of the buttons?
But, if you wanna change it, it depends on the ROM. There should be a setting in display on most ROMs. Check there maybe?

Try Optimus G Tweaker on the playstore.. I'm on a 4.3 rom and there's no option in the settings to turn them off. I'm using a Nav bar and with that Tweaker app, I can turn them off.

Thanks your method worked pretty good. For the settings, there is no option for that.
