I don't think he meant change the look of them, he meant swap them, like on Sammy devices, "back" is on the right side

Yes exactly, swap them....

Root it or custom roms no other way. And FYI original android has always had the left as back.

Looking for Unnamed's dropdown drawer power widget

Greetings,
I'm curious if anybody knows of a flashable mod that would enable me to have a similar dropdown drawer power menu that's used on the Unnamed ROM. In particular, I'd like to have that drawer while using Caukulin's E4GT 2.8 ROM.
Anybody know of one?

Thank you! I'll try that.

Come on guys nandroid and man up...lol Its a simple file and swap out from one rom to another all the time. Its the framework files and Phone and Contacts apk's you got to worry about.
I don't want to have to download unnamed rom just to rip out an APK, if someone is asking, they already have it.
I like mine fine the way it is, but a little tweak could be nice.

Found a mod to add galaxy nexus like navigation keys to rooted stock rom

Sorry if this has already been posted or in wrong section, and I take no credit for it but I found it to be pretty cool. To add soft keys to rooted stock touchwiz rom all you have to do is add this line to the build prop and reboot.
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
Or you could just download "Soft keys" from the Play store!!!!!

Download it, get the apk and zip it in the ROM, or you can use TB to integrate it into ROM.

Why would I do that? I just edited the build prop and it's there...... I understand there are other ways to get soft keys. But I wanted them built in like the galaxy nexus so when I found this mod I thought I'd share......

Agree with you. I am using the same method on my HD2 CM9 for 8 months now.
My SGS3 will arrive today and I am glad that this method will apply to rooted stock rom. Was wondering if this method CM rom only or also stock rom.
Thank you for your information.
IMO this method is way better than some softkey apps because it doesn't use ram and is native like.
will this work on cm10?

I would love to disable my hard keys. I am new at this stuff, so forgive my ignorance.
I have a t-mobile unlocked 32gb white rooted with AOKP jellybean- 4th release
And I cannot find any other mods to the physical buttons, like making the home button a camera button. Not as important, but would love to know if you can tell me.
Thanks!

Look in the android development section. I made one to disable the hardware keys. And someone else made one to change home button to camera button.

Well if you are on Cyanogen or any other rom based on it, you can enable soft keys or just like @geniusboy93 suggested you can use pie controls. Go to themes and apps section and look for pie controls.
Good luck.

[REQ] Softkey Buttons

Hello All,
Almost 2 years ago when I had the Galaxy Nexus someone created me softkey icons that looked 99,9% like these:
http://tinypic.com/r/b47udz/5
I've lost the file and the download link in my PM's don't work anymore.
So my question is; Is anyone good at photoshop and can possible make these icons for me? Like 5 icons total? So the three on the picture and perhaps a settings button and a button to lower the keyboard(the arrow down button)?
Hope I'm not asking to much.
Thanks for reading!

I'm sorry but I'm a little confused, which softkeys did you think I made?

Anyone rooted try "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" to enable softkeys?

Ok so I am not a fan of the capacitive keys and I was wondering if anyone rooted try adding qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 in their build props
My past samsung phones used to crash whenever I entered this, I was just wondering if anyone have added softkeys yet.
Nobody likes soft keys? =k
i dont really want to buy it if softkeys can't be enabled , the back button is far away from my right thumb.
I believe LeeDrOiD Rom has the navbar.
Attached screen shot. I've not enabled them because I like the HW keys.
