The Semi- Useful Softkey mod is back from the dead....SEMI I present a Alpha version of the previous mod i offered with Cap button brightness app also thrown in to disable to lights atm this is a alpha build so please let me know how this goes.

p.s let me know if the bar is to small.

Bug existing of pressing physical buttons still causes the screen to freeze

Instructions:
Flash Through CWM and Reboot ^_^

CM10.1

Current:
Soft Key Enabler B3
Soft Key disabler B3



Changelog:
Updated for B1 release. Disabler is labled B1.2 due to playing with updater script trying to remove the Cap light app(If any one is able to help me here would be great)

Previous
Soft Key Enabler A9
Soft Key Disabler A9
Soft Key Enabler B1
Soft Key Disabler B1.2






Code:
OLD INFO
I Present a small tweak to Enable the soft keys on CM10/AOKP while also disabling the Capacitive buttons plz let me know if you find any issues with this mod. Am unable to disable the cap backlight as it seems that it is beyond my ability as a newb modder if any one else can get them disabled plz let me know the location to control backlight is in services.jar in the PowerManagerService

Also seems on AOKP the Softkeys have some controls in Rom Control e.g transparency making it look like a black bar while also giving the ability to EDIT what is on the bar

HEADS UP: This Will Disable the Extra feature added in settings>system (tho once u have on screen why would you want to modify the hardware keys)

Glitch: pressing the disabled Capacative keys while trying to use touch on screen becomes unresponsive reverted the second you un touch the cap keys tho seems to slightly happen with th capacitive keys enabled and soft key disabled as well to a degree

p.s Big Cheer to mattmanwrx for helping me out ALOT

Note this should continue to work through the Nightlys but i will keep an eye for when anything big changes to framework that needs me to fix/update.

Many thanks man!:)
Can't wait to try it. Will be at home in a couple of hours.
Good thing, I guess i don't need to learn how to do this mod lol:D
Edit: Ok, able to download using firefox. Nice! Only annoying is led lights as mentioned.

Unfortunately the capacitive keys are not disabled I will look into it in the mean time and will make a version for removing the keyboard back to none. Tried to disable backlight on the keys but the usual method seems to not work

Updated: added soft key Disabler for preview 7 and also informed of beta version with 2 of 3 keys disabled on capacative

Personally I kinda like it still gives me a physical menu key sorta giving a 4th key

Hey, thanks, keep searching. Something you also could have a look at: you can't scroll or click if your finger is on the disabled capacitive buttons.

@OP I looked into the .zip, and what I found out was that all you have to do to make it work with CM9 is edit the CM9 framework-res.apk the same way like you did to the CM10 Framework-res.apk.

I dont have pc access right now, so can't decompile it.

Can someone either send me a decompiled framework-res.apk from TBalden's CM9 Beta 4? And tell me what to edit other tham the values/bools.xml? I can send me apk if you want.

Or can someone please send me that framework apk with the changes made? Thanks :)

Here's my framework-res.apk

Dropbox Link

Box Link

:) thanks

Anyone? :-/
