Custom navbar shortcuts - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Anyone know of an app compatible with Kitkat/Lollipop/Marshmallow that will allow you to add custom shortcuts to the navbar at the bottom? This way I can quickly toggle between music/navigation while driving.
edit: it seems like certain launchers have this ability, slimkat roms in particular bake this in. Found a few outdated apps that likely dont work with Lollipop+.

SlimLP
Checkout SlimRoms:
SlimLP for Lollipop - allows 5 customs navbar buttons
SlimKat for KiKat - i believe allows more than 5 buttons but haven't used it in a while

Pure Nexus allows you to customize the navigation bar.

Mmuzzy Rom Extended Desktop Question

Hey,
I have a question about this feature in the Mmuzzy 4.2.1 French Vanilla Rom for the Galaxy Nexus. I know this in the wrong section, but I don't have permission to post since I'm new. But with the extended desktop enabled I am also running the LMT app for the pie menu. However I would like to know if there is any way to enable the notification bar while extended desktop is on? Even if I use gestures to bring up the notification bar it is still blocked from opening, that goes for the quick menu as well. It doesn't have to be visible on screen at all times, but it would be nice to at least open my notification bar by swiping.
Notification bar
Hello.
I use another ROM (cm10.1) with the extended desktop enabled an LMT too.
In order to make available the status/notification bar I use an app called Smart Statusbar that allows to you show/hide the statusbar swiping on the top of the screen.
Hello again
I just see that. On the last nightlie build of cm10, you can enable the extended desktop with/without statusbar.
hmm, maybe I'll switch to cyanogen mod, I just loaded the mmuzzy mod yesterday. I originally was on bugless beast, but since there hasnt been an update in a while I figured I would switch. I usually like to stick to stable vanilla roms, but I could give it a shot
This makes me happy

Thank you for the port.
This rom is working very well. There are a lot of custom settings laid out in a nice and userfriendly layout, very nice! Only problem I found was that *front* facing cam seems to be stuck in some sort of "wide" mode, so my face was really long when in portrait, and more correct in landscape. And why remove "hold back button to force close app" -Solution: Edit hardware keys to holding back button-kill app. As in some other roms, there seems to be an issue when using auto brightness that causes the screen to use anything from seconds to minutes on waking up.
There are some advanced settings that are locked, probably because of our kernel (like changing Gpu freq and vibration). 13mpx cam working, focus works fine. Definitely one of the most well made roms I've seen!
Tested on E975intl
PS. Rom is very very similar to Beanstalk rom posted by ltelg, I've posted basically the same comment there. Carbon has a slightly better layout for the numerous settings IMO.
i wish someone can port this rom for my f180l,
Hi ltelg
You havea lot of good ports, the problem are the updates afterwords!....

He ONLY ports, no updates. He does put out new ports every now and then. But he doesn't post much to xda any more, Here you can find a quite new carbon port
This is a great ROM but have just noticed that the brightness must be set to nearly 100% to be a normal brightness. Is anyone else having to set their brightness so high ? Itdoes drain quite a bit of battery I have noticed.
Cheers, LL13-

This rom is made by user http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4552996. I guess ltelg has ported it for E975, if so thanks.
This rom is working very well. There are a lot of custom settings around'n'about in menu, very nice!

Nicely done sir. Hope everyone enjoys the build!
FYI.... Please make sure you include the BeanStalk logo in the OP... You can copy over my format from the original Infuse4g thread by clicking on reply on the first post and then copy everything in there and then paste it into your thread. You just have to remove the [QOUTE] from the beginning and end
Any screenshots..?
Booting now!
Damn, a very smooth rom, thx man, gonna go with this now and se if i get any problems i probably keep it.
So far i love it.
Well this ROM was working okay for awhile and then everything went to **** about a month later. 90% of appa force close, NFC drains my battery for no reason, and I can't disable it because settings force closes. data reset doesn't reset, and clockwork mod won't start.
Thanks for breaking my phone asshole.

Man, the dev don't have the guilt for your case, if the ROM works a lot of time isn't because is a bad ROM, right?? That things happens, and the best thing that I recommend you, is flash a kdz ROM (Singapore is the best by the weight, less of 1gb) with kdz updater. Root, use freegee to install a recovery and done, you can flash any custom ROM again. In the forum there's a specific guide to do all the procedure.

Just a follow up: my phone is now bricked http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2434921.
Thanks guys. I recommend you boycott LG for the **** company they are.
Saw your post in at&t thread, so i asume your G is a at&t modell, so why you are flashing a rom which is meant for e975?
Does any kernel goes with this rom?

[APP REQUEST]Hide Both Navigation Bar and Notification Bar

is there any app/mod to hide both nav bar and status bar just like CM10 / PA [Expanding Desktop]
i just found [auto hide soft keys] app by GMD but it's kinda slow and takes time to hide and it just HIDES nav bar i'm looking for CM10 like JUST ! CLICK expanding desktop solution!
it's one of the few reasons that i prefer Custom roms to stock ones and if i find an app or even a mod i would totally migrate back to stock (4.3)!
THANKS!
Apex launcher can hide status bar (several other launchers can to I think) and universal dynamic navbar uses a build prop edit to hide the navbar (only on rooted devices)
There is an app called Full Screen that does that.

You did a good job but could be better if you provide alternate link not waiting for people to ask you. Baidu is dammm slow!! Waste to put any efforts for downloading. I have found one another link and trying to download. Looks better.

I agree. Even torrent or any other file share system is way better than Baidu. Alternative links should be available. skchattha could you pm the link if it works please?
