About a week ago I changed the DPI of the navbar to make it smaller and it worked fine, but then I noticed something strange - the back button seems to be a bit bigger than the other buttons.
Here's a screenshot: (delete spaces)

Its really annoying to my eye and I just see it every time i look at the navbar now.
Any ideas?

Its a known issue. Resize the drawable or don't resize the navigation bar.

Mate, To what size you re-sized the png to fix the issue?

I resized to 75% of the original size. Though now I have a problem with the landscape + keyboard back button being too small, but it uses the same pic, so there's nothing I can do about it.

of course it's here on XDA... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=649475 and it's built-into CM 5.0.6 test 1

Thanks for the reply, I'm actually using CM 5.0.6 test 1 -- I wasn't referring to the app drawer in the video (I already have that and love it!) Was just referring the small icons on the home screen. I think nDrg was right, it could be "More Icons" --- not nearly as slick as I hoped
I was looking at it, and it cannot be more icons widget because that widget offers you 2 lines of icons smaller, but on the video you get 1 line with 8 icons.
Any idea?
you can add icons to just one row...its not that hard.

i have the 5 columns in the scrollable menu, but it won't turn 180 on rotation, either in the scrollable menu, or on home screens.

yup, its definitely 100% more icons widget. mine looks exactly the same and has for a long time. Beware, they are hard to tap accurately.
Hey guys,
After realizing how fantastic the tab is after switching to 182 dpi I figured I'd fix up some of the apps to fit better.
Thanks to Xan from this thread for the quick tool and batch script to make the changes.
These apks are from Overcome 1.6.3 and should work on other dpi settings as well.
Instructions, push the new files to /system/app after mounting the system rw, or using root explorer..
*Edit May 4th* I've attached an updated Email.apk as well
Disclaimer:The Standard disclaimer applies, I'm not responsible if this causes boot loops, any other issues with your Tab, or giant meteors to crash into your car.Backup the files you are replacing first.
So u did rename framework-res to 1.apk and twframwork to 2.apk.. decompiling phone & contacts worked for me. Give me a howl if it didn't work and ill zip up mine and send it..
oh im editing overcome145 - not tested 163
just a friendly tip, might be a idea to use frameworks from a stock 2.2.1 rom instead from a moddified rom, might be a glitch there..
yup, sure did.
*edit* think I've got it now, I compiled the new apktool and started fresh..
Can you post screen shots
I tried, but ddms doesn't capture them correctly. The change makes the apps pretty much look exactly like they do at 240dpi.
can you change the email app too please? when i go into the landscape 2 pane mode, the left pane doesnot appear correctly.
thanks
Yeah for sure. Ill have a look and fix it tomorrow..

Noticed that the statusbar disappears in the email app, when i go into landscape.
How about modifying the camera app?
I didnt find the stock launcher too bad. Had to switch it though, after i changed density. Is that modifyable too?
Would be nice.

Mr. mssmison is only adjusting for overcome16x, mixing 2.2 with 2.2.1 will probably give errors..

Phone might be a tough one, any time I adjust the xml's at all it just crashes out the phone app when you end a call, thereby restarting the modem.. Best temp fix I can think of is to adjust the png for the end call button to be transparent on the right hand side.
I'll keep plugging away at it though.
Noticed it too, tested just changing background to black, and it would behave the same, fc on inn or out going.??

Can anyone make a mod like the image shown here for cm10 on our Sensation? The original post (v1.1) is in the link below. Thanks in advance
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28325580&postcount=1
So far i know we all have the weather widget as a lockscreen
Put finger on homscreen and hold it.
Then move the bottom slider to display
Use Lock screen style
select Weather
The rest is to put the icons in the right *.apk.
So far the icons have the same size is this not an issue.
Ok the size of the widget must be changed in /framework.
That's a little bit more work, but possible
Also the names of the icons can be different and how much
we have for our sensation.
Will check right now the icon size. Report later...

The way this looks, all you have to do is change some lines in updater-script. Give me a while, I was just about to Flash CM9 so I'll try doing this for the Sensation after the flash.

Did it! There's a CM9 and a CM10 version. Because CM10 is still a work in progress and gets updated every day, I can't guarantee it will work across all versions but always have a Nandroid to be safe.
When transferring the file, be sure to properly eject USB. Apparently not ejecting it corrupts small files and makes kitteh sad
CM9 - http://goo.gl/kYWnS
CM10 - http://goo.gl/278ek
I tested the CM9 one and it worked, hopefully the JB works out the same as well.
Good day!
Guys, could someone, please, make a mod for LOLLIPOP - 50% smaller nav bar with smaller buttons and, if it possible, to change position of "Back" and "Recent" buttons ? I will provide all necessary files fast!
Thank you.

@slonn
Xposed isn't working on 5.0.2, at least, it cannot be installed without recovery.
I'll do one mod today...
I won't build mod that will replace icons position but will reduce size of nav bar icons.
Size is few mins job but replacing icon position is something else.
I just don't have time to do something like that (you want something similar we have on Samsung (Note 4, for example), right?)
The other problem is : I'm not sure it would even work without patched services.jar so I won't do that today...
As I said...
I'll release smaller navigation bar MOD today (stock icons)
That should work on stock services.jar
And if I find time (and testing shows it could work in odexed, stock firmware, without superuser MOD), I'll build few custom MODs.
(with KK icons, maybe even "Xperia" icons (if I find one of my old themes for Z2)
This isn't right place to post requests, Mike could you move this thread to Q&A

This is a problem in the SystemUI have you modified it or it's still stock?
Wich configuration do you prefer for the buttons? I made also a systemui like this one ( in this case i should fix the size of the power button with your very small navbar )
