I decided to make onscreen buttons for our luvly x8-s.
Note that it only works with MiniCM9-3.0.0, other ICS roms will be supperted soon.
It works now, ready to try DON'T FORGET TO HIT THANKS TO amieow98!! (You can also thank me!)
Screenshot
Changelog:
V0: Conception that didn't really worked.
V1: Works, credits to amieow98.
V2: Now for MiniCM9 3.0.1 too! 2012/5/2
I have enabled on-screen buttons on my MiniCM9(With blue color)
Why do you say its experimental? it is included in the ROM and as far as i've used mine No problems at all.
What? HOW?
So i didn't supposed to mod the framework and work on it for a while??? SH!T.. But IS it really already included in Minicm9-3.0.0?

It IS already included in MiniCM9-3.0.0.
Just change a line of code and done...
But of course..I notice that on the lockscreen(with on-screen buttons enabled)
there is a black bar covering a small part of the lockscreen (The on-screen button one but there's no touchable buttons)
I guess you can try to fix that?

are you sure you're on MiniCM9? aren't you on AOKP rom? AFAIK only AOKP has this feature

I am VERY sure I'm using MiniCM9.
I googled how to enable the on-screen buttons.Followed the instructions and stuff.
I decompiled framework-res.apk and went into /res/values/bools.xml
and changed a line of code from this:
<bool name="config_showNavigationBar">false</bool>
To this:
<bool name="config_showNavigationBar">true</bool>
pushed it.boot. There you go,Easy on-screen buttons for you.
Then I changed the color of the buttons.(Images in SystemUI.apk)
why anyone would sacrifice precious screen space to put virtual buttons when there are physical ones are beyond me...
then again... whatever makes u happy i guess
nice find btw

For some % people who wanna get keyboard from 2.3 you in the right place.
(I test it on my LG-P999, working excellent, and should run on any Froyo.)
Just install apk.
Go to settings> language&keyboard> mark gingerbread keyboard.
this apk is: Light weight. Without any additives. Does not take ram just same as the original keyboard. Faster than ORIGINAL !
enjoy

Vibrate didn't work for me, but then I went to:
Settings->Language & Keyboard->Gingerbread Keyboard settings
Make sure Vibrate on keypress is checked. Then go to Advanced Settings at the top and change Vibration intensity to anything OTHER THAN System default. If you choose light, soft, normal, strong or heavy, they all vibrate on keypresses.
Enjoy!
To small on atrix screen. I wanted it as an option compared to the motorola keyboard to see which one I preffered but this is no contest against the moto. With gingerblur its one or the other so I guess moto keyboard wins

I try to decompile and compile framework-res.apk, but apktool, apkmanager don't obey me!!!!
I have tried that 2 hours but failed.
So I ask you.....
Please make navigation bar in xperia S.
ps.Does Anyone know about disabling hardwarekey(menu,home,back) for using navigation key conviniently?
yeah i need those onscreen buttons to! is somebody can do it for us it will be very nice!

Because of hard level of touching hardwarekey, I guess many xperia users also want that.
i need that to but we must wait somebody to deodex the rom! let's hope soon

Wants are something which can never be gauged on a scale. Different people have differnt wants. A person X's wants might seem totally unjustifed for another person Y. But when this person X has wants which can be met by Y and only Y, X will surely have to justify his needs.
Go on Barcode. Tell us why do you want this?

Thank you. I would like this because it takes the tablet ui to a whole nother level. Phone turns into a computer on-the-go. The way it looks is just amazing. And thats why I would like it. But the reason I asked if it was able to be ported it because our screens are small and I don't know what it would be like if it is even able to be used.
Just really wanted feedback on what others thought about the idea, and if it is well liked maybe see if we could get some devs onto it.
Cheers,
Evil.
Porting ROM to a completely different phone is A LOT of work...if it is actually possible.
