screenshot??

Yeah the screenshot didn't post. Don't know if you forgot the link or forgot to attach the picture. Anyway, not being critical but is there a reason why people would be interested in having their name on the nav bar at all times? Is there some use or purpose I don't know of outside of customization and aesthetics?

Where is screen shoot?

sorry for the inconvenience guys ...

Yup its all about customization... You can keep any png instead of home buttons.. Cuz default navbar may not be intersting and sounds boring...

[GUIDE] UOT Kitchen guide

Hello everyone, today I'm creating this thread for newbies who want to learn how to use UOT Kitchen so it can be used by the Galaxy R.
It allows us to mod everything in the phone! You can even choose which to mod.
Prerequisites:
- You current ROM's SystemUI.apk, framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk
The instructions are as follows:
Step 1: Battery mod
Over here, you can change:
Battery icon
Battery charging animation
Battery style
Battery colour parts
Firstly, just choose a battery bar that you like. (I personally prefer the Honeycomb one)
Secondly, choose the charging animation. (Hybrid looks nice)
Thirdly, you can choose to change the colour parts or leave it as it is.
Fourthly, (optional) you can select Additional options:
Remove % numbers
Remove charging icon
Use gradient colour fill
Well, that's all for battery.
Step 2: Icons
Here you can change:
Smiley icons
Status bar icons
Notification Power icons
This doesn't need much instructions; pick what you like.
Step 3: Status bar
This is probably the most important thing when it comes to theming: the Status Bar!
It allows you to change:
Status bar transparency
Top bar
Add/edit top bar text
Add a header
Add/edit carrier
Add a background on the status bar
Customize notifications' colours
Add/edit footer
Firstly, you need to specify your phone's screen resolution size. (Ours is hdpi.)
Secondly, mix-and-match.
Step 4: Popup (a.k.a Window Animations)
This one is just as important.
It allows you to change:
Add/edit overscroll glow
Edit popup windows
Loading circle
Volume/Download bar
Add/edit list dividers
Same thing, mix-and-match.
Step 5: Lockscreen
This allows you to change:
Lockscreen
Step 6: Window
This allows you to change:
Window animations
It allows us to use the ICS windows animation effect!
Step 7: Fonts
This allows you to change:
System fonts
They have 26 fonts to choose, including the famous Roboto font!
Step 8: Bootanimation
This allows you to change:
System bootanimation
They have loads of bootanimations to choose from. Have fun!
Step 9: File upload
This is where you:
Upload system files for modding
Choosing updater-script type
Apply 9patch autofix
Toggle ThemeChooser preview for ldpi/mdpi/hdpi
Allow to download your settings into a UOT Kitchen-openable format
Just upload your system files.
But remember to choose the updater-script type as Galaxy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Step 10: Summary
This is where you can check the status of your mods.
Once it's okay, you can submit the work to the kitchen.
Once you submit it, you'll be given a number. That's the name where your file will be processed under and be shown for download at the "Pickup" section.
(Note: If it gives an error instead of a download post it at the UOT thread)
Thanks for reading this small guide, I'll update it with more info!

Thanks a lot buddy....this helps:laugh:.
Just one issue though....have you tried applying the overscroll glow mod through the kitchen for stock odexed firmware....I dont think it works and also in the file upload section can you include the device type setting...it has to be 'Galaxy'.

At least, I tried the battery mod in my stock rom (not deodexed) and it works ok.

[Q] How to resize navigation bar on KitKat Paranoid

Now, i just got my Xperia L unlocked bootloader. then i have install ROM KitKat Paranoid using CWM. you can check to this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-l/orig-development/4-4-3-aospa-legacy-4-4-beta1-t2571273
then i found my navigation bar so big enough. when i use gravity box for kitkat to resize it, i cant. so any idea for resize navigation bar?? please..
sorry for my bad english
I am with the same problem here : (
Does someone here can help us?
I believe that's not possible! But, one thing you can do is to change the dpi!!! But, that changes the size of everything! You can try it out!
1. Open Root Explorer.
2. Go to /system
3. Click on Mount RW (It should appear as Mount RO, that’s when it is correct!)
4. Look for build.prop. Long press on the file and press Open file in Editor
5. Scroll down to ro.sf.lcd_density
6. Change the value. The lower the value, the higher density your screen will have.
7. Click on the Menu button, and Save and Exit.
8. Reboot.:highfive:
Install the xposed mod and then install gravity box in it

Good morning.Is there a way to pass the icons of applications without custom recovery? I want to put these to my son's note 3 , but I do not want to spend custom recovery to not write the knox.
Am I blind or there is no share/download anywhere

Yes. You can do it without custom recovery.
Download mobile ODIN pro. And flash using Mobile ODIN pro.
You can flash zip files using MOP.
Or else
**Decompile apk and make changes as per your wish and recompile
Or else
**Copy the required apk where you wish to change png icons into phone memory. [Example: Storage/emulated/0/app folder]
1. Extract the required apk using Root explorer.
2. After extracting search for the image/png icons which you want to replace in drawables folder. (Assume you want to replace notification_panel_torchlight.png in res/drawables-xxdpi folder of SystemUI.apk)
3. Create your own png icons.
4. Now rename the newly created png icons with the same name that you want to replace.
(Example: notification_panel_torchlight.png)
5. Now install RAR from playstore. And Copy/Cut the image from RAR.
6. Navigate to Storage/emulated/0/app folder from RAR..
7. Long press the apk file (ExampExample:SystemUI.apk) which you wish to change png icons.
8. Click on Open as archive.
9. Navigate to res/drawables-xxdpi folder and paste that png which you have copied or cutted in step 5.
10. All images should be in .png format.
All the above method require Root access. And you can root without tripping Knox.
THANKS.

Hi.
I don't know if this is what you want but just give it a try
Go to Settings, Accessibility, scroll down and find Assistant menu, enable it and there will be a menu floating on the screen. There you can select various options such as home, recent apps, return... etc.

Look at ss one more pblm call button get covered by nav buttons
I am not aware of any other way to resize it xcept the gravity box. The only way to unhide the call button is ofcourse resizing it. Or try using other software like ex dialer or some other launcher.
