Soft key - Navigation Bar resize in Marshmallow - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone have a solution for this?
Since I started using PureNexus Lollipop I just can't stand the big soft keys anymore
I tried editing SystemUI.apk, but :
1) I wasn't exactly sure what to change
2) It refused to work after reboot
If anyone has anything that would help me, I would be so happy. :fingers-crossed:

I have installed Cataclysm 6, it has this feature out of the box.

[Q] Trying to change Notification Panel to an image [Using MOAR]

As the title says, I'm trying to change the black background of this:
(Don't have 10 posts yet, check attachment for image)
into an image.
I've used QuickMod 5.0 to decompile/recompile etc etc the SystemUI.apk, messed around in that but couldn't find some of the files mentioned in various guides I've found. I've tried Ninjamorph and got nowhere with that. I've tried using the option in Wanam but it doesn't seem to do anything, however the option right below it to change the Settings background image worked fine. I've googled myself out of breath and don't know what else to do.
So I have come here seeking professional help. Thanks guys!:highfive:
I am using the latest MOAR 8.0 with Android 4.3.
Verizon Wireless SCH-I535
Rooted
Still trying to figure this out. It seems I've found ways to alter literally everything else in the UI BUT this :/

[Q] Hardware buttons don't work on OmniROM

Hi at all,
I just installed [KTU84P][ROM][aw3som3]OmniROM ~ 04July2014 on my Pico and got a problem with my touch buttons. While "back" works fine, there is no reaction when I am using the home, menu and search buttons.
Is that problem known and what can I do to fix it? A fresh installation wasn't successfull.
Thank you in advance!
You have to edit the ROM manifest files in order to get your keys working. It requires a good Linux enrivonment. I suggest you to flash another ROM.

How to show nav keys in 6.0.1 MM?

Guys,
Do anybody know how to show the nav keys in Marshmallow? Like in Android 5.0 it was like "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0".
I added this line in build.prop but nothing seems to happen after reset. Any suggestions?
May someone try and confirm of it is working or not in his device?
Thanks
Maybe the value should equal to 1?
I tried the values: 0, 1, true, false
None of them worked
Try using the apk called SoftKeyz
I tried.. doesnt work. Thanks for sharing!

[HOW-TO] Remove the superuser indicator in CM13/CM14.x/LOS 15.x

Hello,
I noticed that many of you don't like the CyanogenMod superuser indicator ('#') in the status bar and that some of you even flash SuperSU or Xposed, just to get rid of it. Well, that's not necessary, because there is a much easier way. So here is the "right way" to remove the # in CM13/14.x/Lineage 15.x (probably not working in CM12.x):
Edit: @Dyt199412syam found an easier way to do this, please take a look: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73916650&postcount=35
==== Original post ====
1. Go to Settings > status bar > icons
2. Uncheck and re-check one of the items (to make sure the required settings entry is created)
3. Backup the file /data/system/users/0/settings_secure.xml
4. Open /data/system/users/0/settings_secure.xml with a text editor (as root)
5. Search for "icon_blacklist"
6. you will find something like this:
Code:
<settings id="269" name="icon_blacklist" value="" package="com.android.systemui" />
(ID may vary)
7. Add "su" between the quotation marks after value, so it looks like this:
Code:
<settings id="269" name="icon_blacklist" value="su" package="com.android.systemui" />
If value is not empty, just append ",su" (with a seperating comma):
Code:
<settings id="269" name="icon_blacklist" value="other,icons,su" package="com.android.systemui" />
8. Double check the XML syntax (a mistake here might cause a bootloop)
9. Save and reboot
For ROM builders:
If you want to implement an option to hide superuser icon in your ROM, please do not use a hacky, unclean way to do so. The right way is the following:
Open frameworks/base/packages/SystemUI/res/xml/tuner_prefs.xml.
- Search for
Code:
<com.android.systemui.tuner.StatusBarSwitch
android:key="alarm_clock"
android:title="@string/status_bar_alarm" />
and below insert
Code:
<com.android.systemui.tuner.StatusBarSwitch
android:key="su"
android:title="@string/status_bar_su" />
- Add
Code:
<string name="status_bar_su">Superuser</string>
to strings.xml
Or simply apply this patch to frameworks/base.
Working fine! Thanks!

Have you tried to uncheck / check one of the items in Settings/Status Bar/Icons? icon_blacklist should be created after this.

Double check your XML syntax just means that you shall pay attention that the number of opening and closing brackets (<>) matches and that you don't forget a quotation mark or sth like that.

Thanks to OP this worked on Lineage OS 14.1 on Mi 5
Hello everybody,
Probably, or also surely, caused by the Nova Launcher, always the root # symbol is displayed in the status bar.
This help here would work for me on the S5 and OP3. The Moto G4 does not work that way. After I changed the concerned and then restart the smartphone, suddenly all settings are set to the factory setting .... I copy the previously saved original file over it again, it remains nevertheless there by ... everything on factory setting...
Does anyone know another way that symbol is going to hide?
This Way here does not seem to work with the G4.
Or someone know, maybe what is the Problem?
Thanks in advance

Works fine with Nova Launcher. It is probably the editor or explorer you are using. Are you sure that it has enough permissions to overwrite the file?
Try another editor or root explorer.
tested on seraph unofficial lineage OS on my OP2.
working like a charm, thanks a lot to @MaxMustermann2.0
used MiXplorer to find and edit settings_secure.xml file, and edited it via inbuilt text editor.
