sir i also tried it once but had same fate as your's
i think we can only have it only in custom roms like pac rom or aokp or cm

I tried even on stock based custom ROMs but no results...this can be done only on cm or pacman ROMs as u said.

I think I had to decompile SystemUI.apk and add/edit something like
<item type="drawable" name="tw_navigationbar_bg">#FFRRBBGG</item>
then adding/editing the line in build.prop didn't cause FC and gave me nav bars.
I did this a long time ago I can't be sure that's all I did, but it was something along those lines. I'm sure there's a method available on xda to enable navbar on samsung 4.2.2 by now

We hv to write d above gvn lines at last in build.prop. ..?

Yes and the systemUI needs to be decompiled, edited and recompiled into an apk to stop the force closes on stock ROM with nav bar

I also tried many things on stock to enable navbar but no use.
I also watched a few videos on youtube and for them it was working on stock but i made the same changes in build.prop but every time the same error, dont know why.
So now i'm on CM11 and using navbar, I dont know what the problem is but i'm sure some devs will soon be able to solve this.

I came across this while browsing through XDA, Ultimate Dynamic NavBar
Since there is no available mod for stock ROMs for our device, it would be easier to rely on this App/Xposed module to enable Nav Bar in your phone. It also offers several customization options along with themeing the icons visible in your navbar.

I've used this one but the stock navbar is better coz it works well with the UI.
But i've seen a few videos, you can also check them out on youtube, the guy made changes in the stock rom in build.prop by adding qemu.hw.mainkeys=0, restarted and voila he got the navbar. I just wanna know how?

That works most of the time, specially in AOSP ROMs, but unfortunately simply doing that in most new Samsung 4.2.2+ firmware causes SystemUI to crash.
From what I know, this happens because our SystemUI was not designed to support a NavBar so when the android system allots the lower space to the Navbar (after editing build.prop) the SystemUI tries to redraw over/with it and fails, causing a FC. Therefore, something like the line I mentioned in one of my earlier posts is required in the drawables of SystemUI.apk before Navbar can be used on stock.
"<item type="drawable" name="tw_navigationbar_bg">#FFRRBBGG</item>"
Fortunately for us, we now have Xposed, which enables us to edit system apks without actually modifying them. So in my opinion it's easier to simply make/use a mod for enabling this feature in SystemUI.apk rather than making a ROM-specific mod for enabling it.

I would like to try this but I don't wanna be the guinea pig.
There's nothing super risky in changing the services.jar.
Make a backup of yours and you can push it back with ADB if you got a bootloop.
Nice, and thanks.
Wish there was a way to incorporate this into my app without needing the external jar file to be replaced (like it is in HC).
I have an app on Market that is a Kiosk browser app, but currently only for Honeycomb. It'd be sweet if it could work for ICS as well

I don't think there is a way to do it without a "special" version of the jar (policy or services)
In HoneyComb you could hide the bar, but with ICS Google remove that option, now the bar is "enforced" due the soft buttons and notification stuff.
new version online. see first post!
thx dabidu
Maybe this could go to the development section.
I add the .diff file with all the required changes on the source code to get the toggle the bar on and off, so anyone building a new rom from souce could implement this "feature"

I try this on eos 68. Its working with a big BUT.
No way to trigger the status bar back in application. Rotate the screen didnt work either.
Most of apps on market do not have exit button. So i can only use restart using log press power button.
I hope you could add the toggle setting on log press power button. That will do the jobs.

I understand about how to use. But if you could change the setting apk to include in display setting menu. Why not add it to the long press power button menu where the shutdown, reboot recovery and soo on.
It would become easy to use without need extra swipe application.
Just advice. No need to angry.
Nb: when using mxvideoplayer playing movies. Cannot toggle the status bar. But dice player just fine.
Amazing mod, you dont even need swipe pad. Thanks man.
You can just change back and forth from settings, sometimes after you select the bar again, it wont show, make a rotation and it will show again.

[MOD] Android 4.2 (JOP40C) Navbar Mods (24dpi/28dpi/32dpi/36dpi)

These mods are flashable zips which can be applied against any deodexed Android 4.2 (JOP40C) ROM. My testing was done against bigxie's latest version but it should work with many other ROMs (including pure AOSP builds). If you are running completely stock (i.e. odexed), this will fail, so do not even try.
Here's what's available:
24dpi navbar
28dpi navbar
32dpi navbar
36dpi navbar
Disable signature checking (offered separately and required for non-Google AOSP builds)
Blue versions of all of the above by Coolgoly
Those of you running unofficial AOSP builds (i.e. ROMs not based on Google-provided images), you will need to flash the signature disabling patch in addition the navbar of your choice; ordering does not matter as long as both are done before you reboot. If you would like to request additional navbar sizes, feel free. However, I do not plan to offer alternate colors or otherwise.
Please take a backup before applying this patch and report any issues you encounter.
Changelog:
r2 - 2012.11.21 -- Re-done using apktool; no signature checking re-enabled.
r1 - 2012.11.19 -- Initial release.
:good: was waiting for this.. it would be nice if you could also make a default one to revert back if needed
Agreed. The ability to flash a stock one would be nice thanks for what you've done though

Otherwise, all system apps would need to have matching certificates, which is just going to cause problems for everyone. If you are concerned about signature checking being disabled, you can remove services.jar from the zip but be forewarned that you will likely encounter issues.

I was puzzled by this myself for other reasons... apparently Android checks for the AndroidManifest's signature (and only that one, it doesn't care about the resources themselves). So you can swap out the META-INF folder (this is the signature) and the AndroidManifest.xml from the stock framework-res.apk to your own framework-res No need to disable the check!
And by the way... if you compile ApkTool from source and use the latest aapt binary from the android SDK it works with 4.2!

[MOD][JB][CM10.2] Update v4 Transparent App Drawer [Trebuchet.apk]

This Mod is for all of those among us, who want to have the Trebuchet App drawer transparent on and with CM10.1 Roms​
All credits and thanks go to:
- wesamothman who gave me his permission to post and whose ToDo or Guide makes it possible for me to port/transfer it for our device and to CM10.1!
(if you want to klick thanks to him or to see, how this was made, please visit his thread too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2061028&highlight=transparent+drawer)
New and updated version v4 - for Android 4.4/CM10.2 - Trebuchet.apk with more settings pressing left settings key
Guide/HowTo additional changes in Post 2
Installation:
Download the Transparent_Trebuchet_CM10.xx.zip of your choice and flash it via CWM and reboot. If you want to have your original Launcher back, just restore the backup created from universal flasher in folder universalflasher.
The issues mentioned in some posts can be reduced with following workaround:
- go to System settings/developer options deactivate: window animation scale, Transition animation scale + Animator duration scale.
- go to System settings/home screen/homescreen/Transition effect and change it to standard or tablet.
This will minimize the mentioned delay with disappearing app icons, after changing to app drawer view and/or back to homescreen. And in my opinion or feeling, the launcher is much faster.
I have tested it on CM10.2 Nightly (cm-10.2-20130905 plus many others-NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd).
On other Roms it should work too, but i haven't tried yet. But feel free to test it and report back.
If there are other requests, for example different kind of transparency or for other Devices, questions, bugs or what ever, please feel free to post it here or send me a pm. I answer and update all asap.

Recompile apk, add it in flashable zip and have fun ! :good:
If you want to take out the texts below the app icons in app drawer, on homescreen and below created folders:
change line <item name="android:textSize">@dimen/workspace_icon_text_size</item> to <item name="android:textSize">0.0dip</item> in <style name="WorkspaceIcon">
If you only want to take out the texts below the icons in app drawer:
include line <item name="android:textSize">0.0dip</item> in <style name="WorkspaceIcon.Portrait.AppsCustomize" parent="@style/WorkspaceIcon.Portrait">
can you make the status bar transparent ? ( not when it's open )
I already tried it and will try it further, but for the moment found no solution for it. Hope I will get it to work soon or even anytimes .

If they have and work with Trebuchet.apk, it could be. But I don't think this version not..guess that it has to be compiled with the individual framework. But should be no problem to do that.

It works, but when you open a app, then exit a app, it reverts back to a black background. The wallpaper/transparency returns when I put the phone to sleep then reawaken it. Any ideas what is going wrong?
I also noticed that issue, but if I return to homescreen and tick appdrawer icon in dock it returns to transparency again. So for me no need to put phone to sleep and rewake again.
But anyways its not perfect so....do you know whether this has been since the beginning, or just came along with a new ROM/Nightly version installed?
On which ROM/Nightly and device are you?

[MOD] Remove Location Icon ( UPDATE: 12/17/2013)

Since there was not one posted i decided to post a Remove Location Icon flashable zip file for those who just decide to stay stock de-bloated.
The update script is by andybones, and i modified the apk.
This will work with stock,and deodex, roms as long as you have no other modifications are made in the systemUI.apk
I also included the stock file as well.
Flash in recovery and wipe the dalvik-cache, reboot, SUCCESS !
There are Three files. The Remove_Location.zip will work for both odex and deodex roms.
For odex roms it deletes the odex file and replaced it with a deodex version. It will work just fine don't stress out about it....
The other two are stock deodex and stock odex. If you want to go back make sure you use the right one!
UPDATE(12/17/2013): I added the 2.10.605.1 update mod..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48592241&postcount=31
UPDATE(11/21/2013): I added the .15 update mod as the systemUI.apk is not the same for that update .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47683138&postcount=28
UPDATE(10/16/2013): I Fixed the code so as the Beats icon is not " floating in space " as someone so put it.
Please read here before flashing http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46812076&postcount=24

He's talking about that annoying GPS symbol that Verizon decides to add next to the signal bars.

I corrected this problem, and the code is now fixed !
Is it still a blank icon that just now AFTER the Beats icon, or is it really space freed up for other notifications?
I don't have that behavior myself on my device after flashing as seen in the posted screenshot. Anyone else ?

Edit:
Note that even though the modification to the systemUI.apk smali code should set the icon to a with of zero, the actual location of those icons are in the same file
Those were technically removed on my first attempt, which yielded the blank space between the beats icon and 4G symbol or whatever else. That b/c I didn't take into account the smali code in systemUI.apk
Now on my device theI just applied the systemUI.apk modification which just set the width of the ' clear ' location icon to zero which made the space disappear. I have tested this several times by replacing the original systemUI.apk and systemUI.odex files and then re-flashing the modified one and it functions as shown in the OP screenshot.
I also compared the MD5 checksum with the one I flashed vs the one I downloaded from here in case i accidentally messed up and they are identical.

Are you running a custom ROM?
No, stock. Using Xposed for mods.

I was going to say, that those status bar mods are not stock
The SystemUI.apk holds some of the icons for the statusbar, and the systemUI.apk hold the codes that control the blank space between the 4G icon and the beats icon that is where the blank space was.
Those are the files that were modified by me, the first being accidental leaving the space between the beats icon and the 4G symbol, and the later resolved the space
Either way, I had the space previously with your first mod and flashed the updated zip and the space is gone. Thanks for the fix!

Cool, no problem, I am glad it is resolved .
I like the clcok and battery mods there. I wish there was an easy way to do that while keeping the stock ROM. there's no custom ROMs for this phone yet that I've fallen in love with. Bone Stock was good for a While, but even that one I found myself going back to true stock ROM and just debloating it myself.

I would have to agree with you here.
Now IF Verizon would get the message about bloatware maybe some of us might not need to root!
May I also request a WiFi notification removal mod ? Thanks !

I'm running just stock and the mods couldn't be simpler with the Xposed framework installed.

In will work on this tonight

[Custom Rom] Huawei Mate 8 - KangVip Rom - NXT-L29C432B595-V7+V8 [EMUI 8 lite]

-[Custom Rom] Huawei Mate 8 - KangVip Rom
- NXT-L29C432B595-V7 Custom System Update
- EMUI 5.01 - Android 7 -
On TWRP backup basis.
This turns the B582 into a B595.
Developed and tested on this device:
Huawei Mate 8 (NEXT)
Model number: Huawei NXT-L29
Build number: NXT-L29C432B582
- OTA updated.
- Without branding, with root and root access.
- TWRP recovery
Mods:
- Call Recorder
- KangVip Advanced settings
- Autostart administration in the phone manager
- Viper 4 Android FX
- Xposed 89
I couldn't test if this runs on Firmwares other regions.
Quick guide for experienced users:
Please make a backup of your data with Huawei Backup and TWRP.
The Rom will be installed as if you wanted to restore a TWRP backup.
All your apps remain intact.
Conditions required:
- Firmware B582, (data partition)
- TWRP recovery
- root is not necessary,
- OEM and FRP unlocked,
- USB Debugging on.
You are familiar with the matter? Then let's go!
If available, uninstall these apps: SuperSu and Magisk.
A unroot is not necessary. The download is not compressed.
Installation:
Download the directory (2018-01-NXT-L29C432B595-K-ROM-V7). It is a complete TWRP backup folder,
copy it in the TWRP backup directory to the ExtSd and restore.
After rebooting, please go back to TWRP and root with: SuperSU-v2.82-K-Rom-V7. zip
That's all. The installation is complete.
Viper is not been installed with it, this can be found in the
Advanced settings can be made up for.
Xposed is active and stable.
There's no way use other Xposed versions.
Don't change the supersu, it is tuned to the system.
In the Kangvip Advanced settings do not use the Addblocker and "hide Activate NavBar".
Both works only on China Roms.
Hiding the NavBar can be done comfortably with the App "Tiles" from the playstore.
In the K-Advanced Settings /tune cpu, some of the following are available.
Modifications of the computer performance possible. Those who need more power can do so.
Testing out the "Power save" options is useless. Did a lot of it.
The Huawei's own energy saving settings cannot be topped.
The minimally modified stock kernel works as efficiently as possible.
Good luck!
My special thanks go to you: @apat26
Thank you very much:
[KangVIP], Chainfire, Stephen (Stericson) + Jmz Software, Wraithdu, Team Win RecoveryProject,
JRummy and Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
The roms I offer are original Huawei firmware.
Only the system was modified by kangvip and me. The kernel is stock.

Please not for me, because I don't take money for it. I created this TWRP backup roms for my use.
I love it when these things work. And it does. Now I'll share it with you.

Thread Update 2018-07-03
Here comes the update from V.7 to V.8 (EMUI 8 lite):
That's for AL-10 only. It won't work on C432.
Whether it goes on other regions I could not test.
It's a TWRP backup. The V.7 is modified so that now the functions of the EMUI 8
are available on the Android 7 file system.
The Mate8_K_ROM_V8.exe is a self-extracting archive.
This results in a TWRP backup: 2018-07-02--M.8.KANG.EMUI.5.to.8.boot.system.
Just like restoring the V.7 as TWRP backup.
If the root is lost during installation, please re-root.
The same applies to xposed. Everything you need is in the download folder.

When I tap on it, the navbar disappears and remains hidden. How do you make it show up again? It only comes back to me when change the height of the navbar in the k settings.

No wipes are necessary. If you want to do it anyway, only the caches and the system.

Can you plz entre to cust_cb > prop > open local.prop and scroll down to part no 7
########### 7.PRODUCT INFO BEGIN
ro.config.hw_opta=999
ro.config.hw_optb=156
ro.product.locale.language=zh
ro.product.locale.region=CN
You have same like that "Numbers and CN or different".
Because i think if this different with you and if you change it to same the hide navigation bar will appear in settings > navigation key > "navigation bar" and hide navigation bar in kang settings will work with non Chinese versions. "Maybe"
Thanks
