Floating Soft Keys is a simple app to avail you soft key functionality even in exanded desktop mode or if you don't want to wear out your hard buttons.
Floating Soft Keys makes use of Mark Wei's brilliant StandOut Library so if you like this app, please go and thank him in his thread if you haven't already.
FSK requires root to emulate input key events.
FSK is still in its initial phases so it might give some errors or cause some crashes. Please report to me and give logcat if possible. Also tell me your Android version. This will help make the app better.
MAKING THEMES FOR FSK v1.2+​For FSK v1.2+, custom icon support has been added. To make your own custom icon theme, simply do the following:
1. Make 4 PNG images for the 4 buttons having square dimensions (default is 130x130)
2. The PNGs should be named as follows (without the quotes):
"back.png" (for back key)
"home.png" (for home key)
"menu.png" (for menu key)
"drag.png" (for the dragging button)​NOTE: Names are case sensitive.
2. Put all these PNGs in one folder. Give the theme name to the folder (e.g. "Holo Keys" or "Black Keys" or "Alicia Keys")
3. Put this folder in the Floating Soft Keys folder found in your SD card (it will appear automatically after running the v1.2 app at least once)
Themes thus created can be used in the v1.2 app by selecting "Use custom icon". You will be prompted to select the icon.
If you would like to share your themes, post em in the thread or PM me. Due credit will be given.
As an example, attached below is a theme called "Bluish tint". You can download it, unzip it and place the "Bluish tint" folder (which is present inside the zip) in your Floating Soft Keys folder on your sdcard. Then you can use it as a theme by selecting "Use Custom Icons" in the app.
USER-CREATED THEMES​Here I will post links to various themes created by you folks.
Shadowed White Navigation Keys by churapa
Grey icons by proctologist
Theme thread by Gil81
As of version 1.4.0, new icons were made default to suit the Holo theme. But if you liked the old icons better, you can still download em from this thread. The zip file has been attached.
Check the app out on the Play Store or check its code out on GitHub

Beautiful idea congratulations

For Android 4.1+, long-pressing the Menu icon opens up the recent apps. I am not sure about Android 4.0. But in 2.3 or below, it does not work.

Volume keys I probably can add, but I think power key is not allowed in Android for security concerns. I will check and let you know.
Can you please specify what caused the crash?? Also, which version of the app were you on?? Version 1.1.1 had a known bug that caused FC on older Android versions. That has been fixed in the latest version.

The force close is because long pressing home activates Google Now, which is not there in Gingerbread. Option to customize home long press action has been added in the new update (v1.3) which will be available on Play Store in an hour or so.

very useful. Thanks!

Usefull app...thankyou

installed on my gnex toro running pa 356
just installed and giving it a good run.thanks for the app,great idea adds some versatility to your device.

Simply perfect!
Runs without issues on Omega ROM v23 on my Galaxy S2 I9100!!
Thanks and good work!

Thanks OP this is just what I've been looking for to have a fullscreen experience on my phone and tablet. Is it possible in future to have to option to add custom buttons with custom actions? That would be awesome. Thanks

Well idea is good... since its in initial state of development lacks many basic feature... the response between touch and action is high.. around 1sec
Well dre are few suggestion but the main from my side is that the drag button could also act as expand button, i mean click on drag should expand or shrink the navibar...
Well i confirm Working great with
Samsung galaxy S2 I9100
Slimbean 4.2.2. Build 7
Dorimanx 9.34

Great job mate...!!! :good:
Didn't find any major bugs apart from some layout issues...

lovely app...
here's my wish list for next releases:
- option to hide cross icon (just make invisible)
- customizable press and long press options for all softkeys
- align keys in vertical position, i'd be great to use with one hand having keys on side of screen
- didn't try to import icons from famous navbar icons thread, i'd like to be able to import from there

Just what I've been after for my XOOM, great work :victory:

UUUUU looks nice

I am probably being stupid here but how do you enable these? Trying to use them on my Motorola Atrix which has a partially working screen but I can't use the Menu hardware button, this would solve the problem!

Anyway to start and stop this app using tasker?

[GUIDE] Enable Themer on G2 Stock Based ROMs

For those interested in customizing your G2's here's a simple guide for installing Themer and combine it with LMT pie launcher to get a new look and feel on the phone. I did it on CloudyPro II so I don't know if will work on other ROMs but it should
The main ingredients you will need are:
Google Keyboard or any other keyboard you like.
Themer
Xposed Framework
G2 TweaksBox
LMT Pie Launcher
NexMusic or your preferred player supported by Themer.
After you have downloaded the listed apps the first one you have to install is the keyboard you chose and enable it as default. This is because you will need to disable the nav bar and after you do the LG keyboard will force close. Then as mentioned you have to disable the nav bar using G2 TweaksBox> Miscellaneous> check the "disable nav bar" box but don't reboot. Before you reboot make sure you installed LMT Pie Launcher and checked the first two boxes (Activate service and Autostart service) on the app's settings.
Then reboot your device and once you do you won't have the nav bar anymore but now you can use the LMT pie launcher to navigate through the phone. It can be launched by swiping from the left, right and bottom of the screen to the center. It can also be completely customized but I'll explain that later.
After you have disabled the nav bar, have enabled a keyboard and LMT pie is working you can install Themer as a normal app from the Play Store, choose a theme and apply it. Themer was recently updated to support LG's default Music app but they don't seem to get along that well yet. That's why I suggested to use NexMusic which has given me the best experience and works great from the lock screen too. You can select it from the Themer app and after you download it, it will be set as default.
So basically after you've installed everything your phone should look something like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
You can also customize the LMT pie and make it look similar to this:
LMT pie comes with a standard 5 buttons layout that should be enough to help you get through the setup process but if you want to customize it a little more you can go to the last section of LMT's settings, PIE, and there configure it button by button as well as the long press or even add a second line of buttons. The new custom buttons you choose will appear one by one as you select them. For customizing the color you can use a menu on the first section and there you can also raise the top radius, bottom radius and outline as well as many other features.
To add a lock/shutdown function you have to enable a custom key and set it to 26. That's the one that I have on the far left.
I started using it a couple days ago and haven't had any problem so far. The biggest loss you might get from disabling the nav bar is that you loose the option of using multi-window but I'm pretty sure there's a work around for enabling it on LMT; just haven't figured that out yet
Battery life is not affected at all and I can say it improved a bit on this specific theme I'm using because of the dark BG and UI. I wanted to share this because I really liked the way the G2 looks with Themer and also to start a discussion and see what new things I can learn from any of the apps I used.
Credit goes to all the developers of each and every app I mentioned so give your thanks to them and support their projects in any way possible. No need to leave thanks here, ideas and helpful discussions would be more appreciated.
Cheers

I was waiting for this, thank you so much.

How do you get rid of the Google search showing when swiping from the bottom? Pie control works from both left and right side but when I try it from the bottom, the search comes out.

That's weird, that shouldn't be happening
Only the buttons you enable on the PIE section should appear and on all three sides (bottom, right and left). If you keep having this problem try wiping the app's data from the app manager and start over configuring the pie.

[App][JB/KK/LP] Flashlight Tile in Qslide

Hi, I would like to share an interesting find about an app which adds a flashlight option to our Qslide in the LG G2.
The app is called as QTorch on google play store[Link].
It is a free app and very light weight.
You do not loose on ram and it works beautifully. Simply install it and you will get a Qtorch option in your Qslide app bar.
The app does not add an icon to the Stock LG Home app drawer nor does it allow a widget but simply adds a toggle for flashlight in Qslide. If you use another launcher, it might put an app drawer icon or a widget. But in Stock LG Home Launcher app stays hidden and available in list of Qslide Apps.
App does not even stay in running processes.
I hope you guys enjoy this find. Thanks to the developer who gave us a nice option to make qslide useful
Here is a screenshot for how it looks:

"lightbox_close": "Close",

btw with nova launcher i have a quick torch widget (although it is only a shortcut to turn the torch off/on)
also, the app shortcut IS in the drawer

that button combination is imho the best one i ever seen for taking a screenshot on a mobile phone... just when i remember how it was on my old one with power button at the top and volume button on a side - real pain...
but i can understand if you have smaller hands, it can be less confortable...
another ways screenshot can be taken (using g3 or g2 tweakbox)
1. from a power menu
or
2. long pressing one of the navigation bar shortcuts (i.e. recents) to take a screenshot (eventhough that doesn't work for me on lollipop)

[MOD] OP3 Button Mods - Adds menu button behavior!

OP3 Button Mods
OP3 Button Mods currently adds the missing "Open/close menu" to button actions. I am planning on adding an option to replace the single-press behavior of either Recents or Back button with Menu button as well, though that won't be in the first release. There are two options to install this mod: Xposed module OR modded Settings.apk.
Current mods:
Add "Open/close menu button action"
Link to SuperSU in Settings (only modded apk for now!)
Link to Layers Manager in Settings (only modded apk for now!)
TODO:
Change Recents/Back button behavior to Menu button
Suggestions??
Requirements:
Root access
Optional: Xposed Framework (Only with module)
Installation:
Option 1: Xposed module (Xposed Framework required!)
Download Xposed module
Install module, activate it & reboot device
Done
Option 2: Modded apk (root required!)
Backup current Settings.apk from system/priv-app/Settings
Download modded Settings.apk from attachments
Replace original apk with the modded apk (system/priv-app/Settings)
Change permissions to rw-r-r & reboot device
Done

Not at this point no, I'm still learning more Java Maybe some day. This was just a simple edit to array. For some reason OP3 decided not to implement it..

xposed module working great. thanks. now i can quickly access the google chrome menu again

I would have love that for my oneplus x but since then, I edited the keylayout file and used gravity box, not the easiest way but it works lol.
Thanks for your share, I'm sure it will help many op3 users (this phone looks really nice).

You could try the Xposed module on your OPX too. I'm quite sure it would work.

Thanks for this! Installed. Not sure how OP missed this...

actually, now that i see it, this is not exactly how i'm used to use my hardware buttons, coming from a samsung.
left:
short tap: menu
long tap: nothing i think, but i had configured it to change to the last opened app using gravitybox.
home button works the way i am used to it
short: desktop
long: recents
right:
short: back
long: kill app in foreground
bummer that you can't remap buttons using gravitybox

Can you add open notifications to the buttons as well? Good work so far.

Hi great work i really like it. While using it i noticed that it dont work on all apps. On some apps pressing the button simply do nothing.
working apps: totalCommander, maps, chrome, contacts, boxer email, locus map, qr droid, smartools, titanium backup, waze, windfinder.
not working apps: mortplayer, mindwallet*, officesuite pro, blueterm*, quickpic, telephone, zatoo tv.
Is anyone else having problems with these apps?. What i found out is that also other remapping apps like button remapper wont work with this apps.
*EDIT: the update to OOS 3.2.0 changed nothing.

You need root to do this?

Thanks for the thorough testing! the way how I implemented this mod was to only add it as an option in the drop down menu. The Java code was always there waiting to get called.
Why OnePlus didn't enable it? - that idk, but just maybe they noticed the same as you, it not working with all apps. Just maybe ?
What comes to button remapper, I don't know why it refuses to work as I haven't checked the source for it. If you use my modded apk way instead of xposed module, they should work together.
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk

I use 'Xposed Additions' for this. It allows to remap each button. You can define an action for a single/double/triple/long press. Works fine on my OP3.
My layout:
- single back: open menu
- double home: open recents
- single recents: back
- long recents: FC current app
- long vol down: prev track
- long vol up: next track
- single vol up and vol down: toggle play/pause

Currently iam testing this app. I think iam very much happy with the test. Will suggest this to my friends.
The plus point i noticed in this app is , it do not require any usage or accessibility permissions.

There is a delay of 2 to 3 seconds for the app to show animation, and that can be really notable with naked eye . When I click home button it won't show animation immediately after 2,3 seconds it starts to show up.

good app . looks nice and fluid very material good to know they are developers who care about material design..
bought the pro version
good job
edit: it works very well with my s8+ with an overlay navbar thank you

Im currently using it.. and found that it approximately uses 110 MB of RAM which is quite large.. please try to fix it

Thank you for this item. Nice working.

Are long press functionalities still working ?

Great app ever but free overlays are very less?

Nice app. Needs some improvements.
But lags a lot in a Snapdragon 400 device with 1 GB of RAM. I'm using falcon with RR 5.8.5. Sometimes the animation gets stuck in the middle and stays there forever.
But I don't expect it to work super fluid on a device like falcon because of hardware limitation.

Pretty interesting. Trying it out now. Awesome that it doesn't need root or xposed
**(Update)**
Very sporadic on my LG V20 H918. It mainly only activates on my home button and then will play a few more times randomly without even touching the navbar.
Animations are pretty cool though. Nice & smooth and the animation speed setting is a good idea.
Definitely looking forward to this app's progression ?

Working Nice.:good:
Tesla ROM N on honor5x 2gb RAM. Will check battery.

ช

Downloaded the app and checked out the free animations, since those ones were well made I decided to buy pro. But I've noticed there's a slight delay between pressing the button and seeing the animation. Also when I switch apps by pressing the recents key twice the animation plays which looks odd. I'm not a developer but I think this app would work better with Accessibility services listening for a home button press.

The animation is played after the home button is pressed, so definitely there is very small delay which is not noticeable. A 2-3 second delay means the issue is device specific, most probably due to low RAM. I will try to minimize the existing small delay in the future updates.

Hi, its strange that the animations play randomly on your phone. However there is a small issue where you press the recents button and select an app and the animation plays, may be that is what you are talking about?

Thank you! Do stay tuned for new animations and updates.

Works really well on Pixel XL with stock Android 8.0.
Only downside - I now have two additional persistent notifications: one from the system (app running in the background) and one from the app itself.
