On Screen Buttons for .55 FW please - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

I know I can add "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" to build.prop but the buttons are too much big ,I want samller buttons.
Please help

Is there absolutely no way to get smaller on screen buttons on .55 firmware?!
Also, the above mentioned method doesn't work for me!

I believe you have to decompile the SystemUI.apk or the Framework-res.apk and modify the height of the navbar.

Could you tell me how to do that or direct me to any tutorial?

*UPDATED! SEMI-TRANSPARENT APP-DRAWER* Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus/SII Style

*UPDATE*
I have now made the app-drawer semi-transparent like in Galaxy Ace+ or Galaxy SII. I have replaced the Touchwiz30Launcher.apk in the attatchments, so just re-download and replace it in system/app and change permissions to:
R W
R
R
and re-boot.
New screenshots below
Very similar to SGA+ now!
have a look...

app-drawer at 00.37 seconds in the video
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey everyone. Iv just recently registered for this forum, iv been visiting it quite a lot lately and trying many new things. Anyway to get to the point...
Iv downloaded and tried many Touchwizlauncher.apk and systemui.apk from various threads and iv modded a few things to make it look like how i wanted, and it looks remarkably close to the Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus. I would just like to share the things that make my Ace look like the screens below for anyone who would like to use it.
I have made the dock transparent in the homescreen, and in the appdrawer. Also I edited the dropdown menu in systemui slightly on the bit where you slide it up and down. (see screenshots)
As i have said, iv been downloading and trying lots of different things so i cant remember which users i downloaded the original files from before i modded them, so i would like to apoligise but i would also like to thank the original makers. Credits go to original makers, i just slightly changed a few things as u can see in the screenshots. like transparent dock in the app drawer. also i edited the drop-down menu slightly.
Also, If anyone could take my Touchwiz30launcher.apk and make the appdrawer SEMI-TRANSPARENT instead of fully transparent that would be amazing!
Thankyou!
Note:
The zip is flashable through CWM
The Touchwiz30Launcher.apk and SystemUI.apk need to be replaced in system/app using root explorer and then you need to change the permissions. and reboot.
Make sure you download alternative launcher, like launcher pro, just in case things mess up. And make a backup of the touchwiz and systemui apk's before you replace them.
Enjoy!

Ok just saying
But i think SGace + is diffrent
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
yeah you are right. The drop-down for the sga+ is slightly different, and the app drawer is semi-transparent. also the home screen page numbers are at the bottom.
if some1 could make the app drawer semi-transparent and move the homescreen page numbers to the bottom, it would look very very close to the sga+
Semi i can do
But numbers below not
Thats a hell of a lot modding

[REQ] Motorola RAZR Style Nav Keys

Hey! I am currently running stock ICS on my Xperia Arc with locked BL and I wonder if it was possible for someone to create a flashable zip with the nav keys.
P.S What I meant when I said RAZR style nav keys were the new motorola nav keys (Back, Home, Multitasking) on their new ICS devices.
Thanks in advance!

Upload your framework-res.apk and I'll send you a .zip.
You can add this line to your build.prop
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 or let Jubakuba edit your current framework.apk

Good solution...
But the harder solution is "better" in that you'll still get ICS+ optimized menu buttons. (You know, the three dots. If apps see that you "don't have" a NavBar" they don't show the three dots...since that generally means you have a hard menu button).
Decompile framework-res.apk
/res/values/dimens.xml holds three lines in relation to navbar size. Edit all three to 0.0.
Profit.
For this person your edited framework would be best. In my case I use gesture to control back, home, menu & power off/on, so the build.prop is best for me.
How do I do that?

In the systemUI folder that pops up in apktool folder there was only smali folder. No manifest no res nothing just smali.. I deleted and retried like 12 times with different rom bases. I even tried yours to just see where edits where made maybe thinking I could make zip but nothing worked. The closest I got was with apk manager. Im dumb though and just literally installed notepad++ now. Wish I had yesterday. My desktop looks like my kids room. Lol

What tint are you talking about? I don't notice it.
There is a tint of your notifications that come in the top left of the screen. I believe it takes away a lot of the good looks of touchwiz roms. When the tint is removed I believe it looks so much better
The correct way to do it is decompile the SystemUI.apk, then in the values folder open the dimens.xml.
Edit line 25 and 26 and change the % to 100.0% on both lines and recompile.

Hey bp. Thanks for the response. Any possible way you can make a zipp that can be flashed on touchwiz roms to eliminate the tint? It would be much appreciated!
