Using KANG MS3. Using metamorph method however after i apply it reboot my systemui file force closes, or it just does not come up at all. Restoring back up now. I'll try a different method once the links are back up for the installer on the pc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] automaddux:
I decided to just try it in Metamorph to see if it would flash it and it did. thanks for the keys!

If you have aokp rom you can change the color in settings.

Hello,

I'm trying to create theme for flashing but when I try to simply open a theme I always have the following message : "can't find control theme file in sdcard/download"

I am on google nexus.

Can someone explain what's happening ?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Milamber33:
Are you sure you have the right file? For all of the softkeys, there are 2 files you can download, one with just the pictures in it, and the other with the pictures and all the theme file stuff for metamorph/zipthemer. If you open the zip file, what's in it?

Small request, can anyone make these words into soft keys off this image?

http://thechive.files.wordpress.com/2011/07/keep-calm-chive-on_920.jpg

Just make the KEEP CALM CHIVE ON as soft keys. Back, home, menu search, transparent with no background where the black show through.

I would be more than happy to donate to who ever can help me out!

I've already sent a PM to the OP too.

Just an FYI, if you know how to make text softkeys, you can do it in a couple minutes by downloading the font.

Zipthemer is the safer option

"*** ZipThemer *** Does not work on AOKP build 19, please try MetaMorph instead!"

Work on B22?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Optimusg2x:
I use aokp and it worked fine for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atticus182:

i spent "some" more hours to improve my sofkeys...i made 3 sets, hope you like them. (preview 1. - 3. in the screenshot)

I will upload the zips with png's inside tomorrow..still testing and resizing a bit to make sure that all fit fine together. I will also upload the alternative icons which you can see in the screenshot (those under the white line). So everyone can mix and make an own set if you don't like my collections.. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chuckdz3:
^-- Very Nice work, you got me motivated to try my own.

Here is my first attempt. They aren't any where near to perfection as I want them to be but thought I'd share my start and get some feedback.

Edit -- The first ones I did didn't sit well with me so I redid them. Let me know what you guys think about both!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Futur Innovations:
Here's my latest batch. I didn't make these from scratch, but I got them from the source and re-sized them :) Let me know if you want a zip.

it won't help when i post my xml because all the text alignments are optimized for the fonts i'm using

razr style softkeys?

Hey all, great collection of soft keys here. Feel how you will about motorola/locked bootloaders, etc. but youd have to agree they do have some design skills as of lately. One set of softkeys I think the people would enjoy would be standard and reflective versions of the razr nav keys. Any takers? Theyd be right up there with the htc style buttons. No access to Photoshop on my end unfortunately, so I turn to a community of skilled themers instead! Below is a link to what the keys would look like:

I really love the stock ICS blue softkeys, however, I cannot get them to install at all.. I did the zipthemer method step by step and they just do not show up for some reason. Metamorph method the zip doesn't have a theme control file. really want this but i've pretty much given up

i'm on stock rooted/deodexed 4.0.4 rom

edit: nevermind I got it now :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adam6806:
Well I've been doing a lot of searching and I can't seem to find where anyone has the setup for Back / Home / Search. I have long press on home for recent so I don't need or want it. I read somewhere else that it was possible to use the stock 3 setup and just modify the recent to perform the search tasks and then change the image. I would love some help on this because I got the systemui.apk file decompilied and had a look at some of the xml files in there but I just can't figure it out. If anyone just happened to have a systemui.apk for this setup that would be amazing!! Here's my current setup.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Staggers:
What ROM are you using? I'm on AOKP and I've got the same setup you describe: Back / Home / Search, w/ long-press on Home giving recent. In AOKP's ROM Control you can select which Nav bar keys you want active, and their locations. Then the job's as simple as getting a set of replacement softkey images with all possible options included (like those in the OP) and flashing using your favourite method

Anyone help me to make a methamorph file of reboard white glow? I try many different and replace the image. But i can`t get the glow. Just the original with no glow.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chuckdz3:
Your zips were empty? Were these just images or metamorph zips? Would love to use these! Great Work!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Soulflyer1984:
hmm the zips should work. like i wrote (the bold text) they only include the images!

I can try to make some metamorph files, but never tried that before..is there a tutorial somewhere or can i just download any other metamorph file and replace the images?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atticus182:
You can do that, but if you want to change the name you have to be sure to edit the name of the zip, the name of the xml file and the name inside the xml file. Only if these three names are the same it will work correctly :)

That worked for me, but the yellow dash only worked for search, not big menu. Why?

I'm talking about the Google Dash keys, with AOKP 25.

Edit: so the Nexus Dash for some reason doesn't over write the big menu, but it over writes the small menu. Maybe it just needs updated?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheDoctor1177:
I know the search button can be themed, but I want the big menu to be themed instead.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Milamber33:
To get a big menu button you still have to check your ROM. The default small menu button can be themed just like all the other buttons.

Sent from The Past into The Future via The Present. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atticus182:
Like the post above, check if your ROM has the Big menu buttons as a feature. AOKP includes it and you can enable it in settings -> rom control.

However. Grunge style doesn't have a dedicated big menu button, you'll have to create it yourself :)

I have a Nexus S and recently made a softkeys mod for the ROM I'm using: View attachment 922038,

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zombieflanders:
I'm pretty sure most people are using alternate ROMs (AOKP is my personal favorite) that allow you to add those softkeys. I don't have a Nexus S so I can't say what (if any) ROMs give you that ability.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MistaJae:
Thanks. I am using CodeNameAndroid 1.4 on my NS. I have already modded the SystemUI & framework-res to show the softkeys (as per my 1st screenshot), but I wanted to know what xml or smali code needs to be changed to show 'menu' and/or 'search' (as per my 2nd screenshot).

afaik, none of the NS ROMS have menu or search in the softkeys :(

Is the manual process for replacing the buttons the same for those of us who aren't using a Navbar anymore? A quick look in the APKs for the LMT alternate launcher looks similar, and I know I've seen at least one person with a modded version (by Nitroz, I think), but I just wanted to make sure.

Well that would be very much appreciated :-)

Everytime i try installing the iphoney, i get a blue circle instead of the icon :(

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ro_explorer:
You either use a png editor with transparency capabilities (gimp) or, there is a easier way:

- download the IPHONE icons set

- download the ANDROID hollow icons set

- replace the "ic_sysbar_home.png" and "ic_sysbar_home_land.png" from the android set to the iphone set

- take the freshly modified iphone set an put it in your System-ui.apk

I've altered a little your initial METRO nav-bar icons. I think now is looking even better :) ...

The icons are white but I'm using AOKP with ICS blue tint.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Scottland:
Using the most recent modaco ROM, when flashing with Metamorph I only see 4 icons (instead of 5). I assume this is something to do with the 2 hidden menu buttons on the MCR?

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atticus182:
I assume this is either because Modaco ROM doesn't support the 5th button, or the button is named differently on the Modaco ROM. The preview images are just a preview of how the icons look, and the big menu button is named after the one in AOKP so maybe you need to change the name of that button :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Scottland:
Cheers, I'll have a play around
