Lame!
You are a newbie, aren't you?
Much better solution: Install one of the countless CM based ROMs, click "Expanded Desktop", then the navbar goes away.
Then install "GMD GestureControl". Much better than using this tedious pie navigation.

Maybe he likes cm10 over the other based ROMs off it. So no lame.
And anyway, expanded desktop takes away the notification area as well. One reason I still hate pie. I know I can gesture it up still, just so annoying.

When i was in stock rom i use that instructions..... Because really like pie but i dont wanna lost stock ROM.... Maybe i`m not the only one
And yes...... I use a ROM based in cm

I used the same method on stock to hide the navigation bar, but keep the status bar. This also in combination with lmt launcher. Works perfect indeed and entirely free of charge.
Now I'm on cyanogenmod 10.1 so expanded desktop is actually a better way to hide the navigation bar (in settings you can select to keep the status bar). I prefer lmt launcher over cyanogen's pie though.

[Q] Couple of MIUI questions

I really like my first impressions with this new ROM.
1. After the initial install I switched over to launcher pro and lost the transparency
in the notification bar. Is there any way to get this back?
2. I am running the Koush test kernel. I have done quite a bit of research to try and find the perfect kernel combination, but there seems to be a lot of debate. I am obviously looking for speed and battery life coupled with the ability to listen to music while the screen is off without any skipping.
3. This is probably just a matter of time until this happens, but is there an alternate theme that changes all the menu's from white to black?
4. Are there any known battery notification skins that are compatible with MIUI? Looking for a circle battery icon.
Sorry for the list.

Warning: I'm a complete noob... so someone should confirm.
But from what I read on launcher pro's forums, LP doesn't extend the wallpaper through the area where the notification bar is. Is your bar black when you set to completely transparent?

I couldn't even find a setting for transparency of the notification bar.

[Request][Mod] ICS onscreen navigation bar

Can someone try to enable ics onscreen buttons? Its a lot faster in task switching and can also reduce the wear and tear on the home button.
Thank you!
http://rohan999.wordpress.com/2012/03/31/how-to-enable-on-screen-ics-keys-on-any-ics-rom/
But it doesn't work on the stock roms. You need to be on a non themed rom...(cm9). the stock one is loaded with touchwiz so....>>i guess it won't work on it.
Yesterday i tried paranoidandroid,has an option enable them-disable them.btw i hate the on screen buttons,taking up so much space in my screen..

Thanks for the link. I did that before but it just won't boot pass the home screen on stock rom. I can already see the navigation bar with samsung's own customized icons but it just keeps rebooting something at the homescreen and won't go pass that unfortunately not sure what is holding it

u can actually change the height of the navigation bar. I normally set it to 24dpi so that it only takes out a space as small as the status bar and yet keeps the functionality of the status bar.

[JB] No Navigation Bar, Google Now Gesture, Circle Battery Mod

With the help of a lot of developers I've been able to make what I find the best setup. There is no visible navigation bar, there is a circle battery mod, and the swipe up gesture for Google Now works. (The navigation bar is 1dip, which is invisible, but allows a swipe up gesture for google now).
Credits go mainly to vicino (http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=504865) for sending me an apktools compatible with JB, and a how-to, so make sure to give him thanks if you like it.
And he_stheone64 for the images for the circle battery
For google now just swipe up from the bottom to access it. (The regular nav bar doesn't work, only the google now feature). I recommend the use of LMT for this mod http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330150
The zip attatched is to be flashed in CWM
(Note: this has only been tested on bigxie's, it should work on any running stock JB though, at least for the GSM versions)
So the navbar just works like normal?
E.g. Tap middle for home etc.

Do know there is a bug which makes it invisible when the phone enters landscape mode (works perfectly fine other than being invisible though).
To fix it you can just go back into LMT and reset a pie menu option, though I actually like it being invisible oddly enough.

Could you tell me how you decompiled the framework and where to set the navbar dpi? I want to make a navbar mod for the VZW version

Messaged you.
Would it be possible to utilize the half-circle from the Google Now up-swipe to replace navbar? Like, add back, home, recents, etc to the circle, just like in LMT? Would be an even better solution than using LMT since it wasn't able to toggle the LMT pie from the bottom of the screen the last time I checked.
How could we used the HOME button feature?
Nexus 7???
What are the chances this can be done for the Nexus 7???? I checked out the rootzwiki forum on the no nav bar but it got my device caught in a bootloop. I know this is the Galaxy nexus just thought i would ask considering the mod is for JB.
This is excellent. I am using it with Button Saviour and it looks great.
Any chance of taking only the battery from your MOD and flash it without everything else?
yakju JB 4.1.1 Stock .odex (completely clean, didn't flash anything to it)

Main differences between Cm10 and Task and Ktoonsez

Hi all.
I am using Cm10 and have been for awhile but was wondering what the main differences are between CM and Task?
Can anyone clarify this for me?
Thanks a lot

I find AOKP gives you more choices to customize your device.
Would you mind elaborating on that and giving me some examples
If not I totally understand.
Have a great evening

You have more options to mod the UI:
ROM Control- you can get nav bar like in nexus
change battery icon style, color
disable or custom boot animation
change toggle style and layout
add brightness bar to statusbar
enable face down audio mode when u put phone face down it would go to silent or vibrate
and more
lots of goodies that in cm10 you have to custom install
I find cm10 to be smoother than aokp

Interesting, seems like there are quite a few extras and worth the trial. The only think i see missing from CM10 is the additional 2 shortcuts from the lock screen (not a huge deal for me anyways)..
I'm curious though, how would one use ROM control with nav bar like in nexus (since S3 already has meny and back capacative)? Just wondering how it may be used..
Thanks again

Some people are used to the nav bar, maybe if they're coming from a Galaxy Nexus or something. I don't find it useful at all, because as you said, the S3 already has a menu, back, and home button. Also, you'll lose a bit of screen space by using them. Hope this helps!

[Q] how can i add my custom nav bar in the theme maker?

Hey guys, so while i was browsing some themes, i noticed 2 themes that had stock navigation bar. I didnt like the themes and they were too heavily modified so i decided to make my own theme. The problem is that when i reached the navigation bar section, there was no stock navigation bar and no option to add my own. Any ideas on how they did it?
https://themes.htc.com/#/user/theme/com.htc.theme.t611abbf5-09fc-4839-8d0c-1dac0d308448
here is one such example
By stock do you mean AOSP or Sense? If AOSP try this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/themes-apps/rounded-aosp-style-statusbar-icons-t3086556

yep aosp is what i was refering to, but i dont have root, and i can apply that theme without root, any other solutions?
Are you using the 'Maker Pro' section of the site? This where you have morr options.
I was wondering this too because the nav bars that are on Maker Pro are very unattractive. I have no idea how they got the AOSP nav bar in Maker Pro because its not their at all.

yep i used the maker pro, but i can only choose the htc ones
Has anyone figured out how to do this? I would love to know.
I've been trying to do this for quite a time now. All I got is that the themes you download are in the path
Android/data/com.htc.launcher/files/LocalThemes
the navbar icon is under the form of "NavigationKey.apk"
Hopefully someone will figure out a way to modify this. Dying to get the AOSP Navbar yet rooting my device is not an option due to warranty reasons.
