So I have a Samsung tablet (SM-T800) and I have it rooted running the stock rom. I really want to enable on-screen buttons and disable the hardware buttons (I keep hitting them by accident all the time when I read comic books. I hate them).
So all the instructions I've see have invovled editing the
Code:
build.prop
and adding
Code:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
. When I do that and reboot, I get a black bar at the bottom of the screens in most of my apps with no buttons on it. I assume this is the on-screen nav bar, but for some reason, all the buttons (Home, back, app select) are missing. I know on my phone where I run Cyanogen, you can customize which buttons show up. I was wondering if this was configurable somewhere and if, in Samsung's stock rom, they disable all of them? Or is it something else entirely?
What am I missing?
If you have xposed there is a great app called Ultimate Dynamic Navbar 23.2 that will allow you to have the navbar in portrait or landscape.
To disable the hard keys you need to edit Generic.kl in system/usr/keylayout

xposed says the framework isn't supported on my architecture. Surely this has to just be a setting somewhere in the stock rom?

Wrong framework, you need Arter97 builds and a deodexed rom.

Yea, I don't want to do that. I have the stock rom setup the way I want. I really don't want to wipe it. Surely there must be a way to get the on screen buttons working on the stock rom?
Changes:
Phone application:

- Adjustable after call delay.
- Record or Add call button (select in Rom Control).

Can I ask, the look of your ROM, is it a theme or is it the Potato Gradient. If not, what is the potato gradient?
Well done! Looks like an awesome rom, will definitely try it out!

Potato gradient - custom status bar background. It included in most of custom ROMs but in this one it may be implicitly disabled.
Try it. There is many things inside that developed by me and not included in any another firmware yet and many old standard things, that completely re-writen and works better, consuming less resources.

Will definitely try your ROM! Thank you!
Tried the rum very much. All works smoothly and nicely.
Just wondering if there is an option to not install next alarm on lock screen. Also do you use Android M boot animation.
Thx
Delivered by my Silver S7.
I see you didnt debloat it since you dont know what apps you need and what not.
Well, what you could do is include a system app removal app (you can find em on the play store) so people can do it theirselves
---------- Post added at 11:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:28 AM ----------
Also, would you like a name 4 your rom?
You could ask people for one if you really want to, and choose on of them, or make a name yourself.
You can call it D8 Rom for example

It seems that wake lock not released on server timeout in stock. See inside services.jar classes.dex/com/android/server/backup
Added wake lock release to 1 or 2 methods handleServerTimeout and its status check before release everywhere.
I must say I prefer the ROM not being debloated, as I really like some of the stock apps.

It run good without de-bloating. There is only 1 application, that I keep frozen - Google photo.
Update 1.1.4 released. Changes in quick toggles. Need more testing, so do not delete 1.1.3.

This is known issue with Superman.
You should flash stock kernel or stock ROM.
Re-flashing Superman with stock kernel before installing may resolve this.
Try flash this file - https://yadi.sk/d/gumezq2FsqJ8L

Installation:
No Aroma at this step.
1. Follow instructions for all custom ROM's (you'll find a lot in this forum)
2. After flashing ROM, flash you CSC (before reboot) and updates.
Download:

click twice... It worked for me the second time..
OP:
The rom looks great, only thing I'd like is the option to turn off the ram bar in recents panel.
Also with 1.1.4 update I had several hotboots, which were solved after installing jesse's kernel. Haven't checked if the 1.1.4 zip has a kernel on it, BTW I was coming from Nyssa's rom...
excelent rom! right now I'm testing it, but looks like a daily driver! keep it up!!

ok.
May be later.
But you should not worry about, because it optimized and consuming less resources, than original one (I don't remember, where it from).
It also start updating when recents open and stop on screen off. So, uou should not worry about battery.
Same or similar happens with all custom components (clocks, battery, traffic etc...). No updates when not visible (if possible). Implicitly stopped when screen is off. If yiu like another ROM, you can ask developers to port my versions of add-ins instead original ones.
1.1.7 released. Added autoruns control to settings. Use carefully.
I'll upload ROM, based on next release from Samsung to another site.
Google drive not showing number of downloads.
You can make mirrors. My internet not fast enough for uploading gigabytes.

That's because it isn't available on the HTC 10, and ViperOneM8 6.1.0 is a port of the ROM for that device.

It has been removed from the code by HTC, and would be very difficult to implement. I don't think anyone has been able to do it yet.

you can remap long-press or double-press of any of the 3 buttons to access 3-dot menu , in venom tweaks > Buttons and gestures > Double-press/Long-press > choose "menu button".
You can also use Gravitybox (if you have Xposed) to add a custom 4th menu button (it appears the whole time).
Be careful, some features coincide/override(and can cause problems) with venom tweaks, so turn off any features you won't use in gravitybox.(especially statusbar/lockscreen/launcher/power menu)
Edit : didn't notice you were talking about recent apps menu until i saw picture ..

Hi,
I already have my system ROOTed, Xposed installed.
Any specific Xposed modules or app / etc. people recommends that work on Tab S4 that would allow me to tweak the navigation bar?
For now I just want to switch the order, as I'm used to have back button on the left.
Thanks for the advices.
Test & Error so far
GravityBox [O] v8.3 Xposed Module - Works with system, but NOT able to re-arrange/swap order (still same after reboot)
Android NavBar Buttons v6.3 Xposed Module - no work, will prompt Samsung system UI error.
You can change the order of the buttons in Settings -> Display -> Navigation Bar. At the bottom you will find "Button layout"
Mine is Tab S4 standard/not rooted
