Windows phone 8 - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

So I was wondering is there a windows phone 8 style keyboard . and if there already existed some nav keys that were styled like windows 8 capacitive buttons. If not is there a way for me to learn to create my own nav keys

You can skin the NavBar with different icons, but some one else might know the thread for it cuz I don't.
You can try A.I. Type Keyboard which has windows phone skin, but I am unsure about windows 8 skin, also it doesn't do gesture typing.

Add phone app to nav bar

After seeing some of the new Blackberry 10 screenshots, I noticed that it has soft buttons like Android 4.
Is it possible to add a phone icon to the left of the back button to launch the app?
Like so:

Bump for more info
AOKP, unless CM adds it as part of their rom.

Soft Key for AOKP Widget button

I was looking around to see what soft key would work for the new toggle widget feature in AOKP build 38 and couldn't find something I liked so I made this. What do you think?
I just made it a long press.

[Q] About Softkeys

Brothers,this is the first post from me in xda,sorry for my bad english..
Alright,back to the question...
As you know i want to make my nexus become fullscreen display so i root and use the softkeys to replace the 3original softkeys..
However,I found that the LMT Launcher v1.2 is not good enough for me so i want to find another softkey to use.....but after finding,i find that there are only 2 choice i can choose..
1:LMT Launcher v1.2
2:Button Savior Pro
So i want to ask wether are there any other choice i can choose?
If any brothers know...please tell me!!!!
Especially i want the one as same as the i phone!
The iPhone doesn't have soft keys.

the navigation bar contains soft keys...
and to answer the question you can use miui rom to make it look like iphone a bit but none of the softkey hiding techniques i know are stable.
If your rooted and have a custom rom that supports removal of soft keys like aokp or some aosp roms Try black ice rom on rootzwiki if your looking for the gsm version there the soft keys are in the power menu and the toggle on and off in there too
Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1413582 you can change your soft keys to what ever you want. Even down to one and make it look like the iphone
Hope that is what you looking for and don't forget to hit thanks to all the people who helped you

I know what you're talking about but I meant soft keys like the Nexus S.

You mean the capacitive buttons?
Figured all the mentions of soft keys was short for software keys. Which sorta makes sense.

Yeah, when he said soft keys, I thought of software keys, not capacitive buttons
Use aokp, it completely hides the bottom soft buttons so its total full screen. And it looks excellent.
hey brothers,,first of all..sorry,,may be i use the wrong word....
while my word 'soft key' is that the software keys....because i hide the original 3 keys and use some software to replace it...so i wanna to ask are there any other choices of software i can use to replace the function of "back home and search........
i want some apps~

Galaxy nexus softkey mods

I was just thinking about my very old palm pre I had a while back . It sparked an idea of having the same kind of gesture bar at the bottom instead of softkeys, I think this would be really cool though I have no android developing exprience . You guys think we could get this idea around to the devs ? Let's do it!

This already exists. Either LMT or button savior are the best ones.

Full screen with gestures

Hi guys!
I have a question. And i'm sure someone can tell me if it's possible or available.
I know we can get mods to have a fullscreen possibility. But is it possible to hide/show the softbuttons by using gestures? For example: swipe up to show. Swipe down to hide?
Hope someone can give me an answer.
Thanks!

I think the cm team is working on a similar function, long press power and select full screen to show/hide soft buttons and notification bar.
Swype'ed on my CM10 Galaxy Nexus
It would actually be awesome to swype in to show the soft buttons and swype out to hide them
Yeah thats what i thought too! If i had the knowledge to build it. I did!
