Hi @itandy. Grabbed everything. Worked well w/ KK. Updated to LP recently. When importing the files, here's what my nav bar looks like (photo attached), compared to what the preview shows. Looks like Back back, home, and recent button not coming through.

Hi @itandy. Grabbed everything. Worked well w/ KK. Updated to LP recently. When importing the files, here's what my nav bar looks like (photo attached), compared to what the preview shows. Looks like Back back, home, and recent button not coming through.
@itandy I don't have them anymore. I realized the only buttons I wanted to change for the user defined version was the search button, and if you don't have images w/ the specified names as you instruct in the app, then the default ones will take over, which I what I wanted.
But, just in case you want to try them, the images are exactly the ones that i got off your site for the L-theme back, home, and recent buttons, which were the ones that were squeezed together.

Yes, this module is known to have compatibility issue with CM ROM because CM has greatly changed the navbar with it's own customization.
Thanks for the information
I hope will be a fix soon

Hi
I am having similar distortion/incorrect image problems.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/48vzllzzp7tysgc/Screenshot_2015-07-25-15-47-29.png?dl=0
Running stock firmware 23.4.0.546 Android 5.1.1 on SGP621. No other mods besides root and this is the only xposed module I am running
Thanks

Mine looks like this too.
Please post the Xposed log for me to investigate.
I dont if its a bug or not I used custom themes, when the system restarts the system ui incl nav bar wont show in portrait mode, it shows only on landscape mode with 3 buttons only but in this mode setting i keep the number of buttons to 5, btw I used Xperia Leo(z3) with LP 5.0.1 Stock
Please send me Xposed log as well as logcat after reboot. Screenshots help too.
So this problem only happen after a reboot? Do you have any other Xposed modules enabled? Please try to isolate the problem by disabling all other modules first.
ok bro I will recreate the problem and report later, cant take screenshot coz after the restart SystemUI wont start I think, no security code just blank screen flashing black and white again and again, and this things will stop after I connect charging dock coz this thing stop at landscape mode, only the power button options ie reboot shutdown is working at that time so I did reboot into safemode and turn of ur module and things started working again but I missed the buttons, So I had to complain,
My criteria is:
Stock z3 rom v.28
More than 10 xposed modules installed but I think there is no conflict coz I turned off the navigation things on GravityBox
And I used custom Images made myself so that I can replace search button with power button, I will try again with inbuild theme and report if the same problem is happening or not, I think it with image cache stuff the one u talk about in custom theme
Turning off navigation bar option in GravityBox is not enough. GB has such a design that some of it's feature cannot be completely disabled unless the entire module is disabled in Xposed.
Any way to make it compatible in ROMs with modified navbars?
This is the only thing keeping me on stock/aosp ROMs and this modules is a must have if you use a DPI much lower than stock and need to adjust the margins
also, anyone know another method to change the margins? In case anyome wants, I made a fix to it for Nexus 5

49This Xposed module allows you to change the NavBar buttons on your Xperia/AOSP devices. On stock ROM, there're only three buttons on the NavBar (Back, Home and Recent Apps). Now you can have complete control of the buttons and how they look like.

- Restart SystemUI to see changes immediately without rebooting (Busybox required)
- Activate changes on the fly without root (Nougat only)
- Define left and right margin
- Define navbar height
- Define search button action
Requirements
- Your phone must be rooted
- Xposed framework must be installed first http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
- Xposed library 2.2 is required
Instructions

- Run Xposed Installer and enable the module Android NavBar Buttons
- Reboot the phone
- If you want to use your own button images, check out this link.

Limitations & supported devices
I developed this module based on AOSP source code and tested only on my Xperia devices. I expect it to work also on AOSP devices such as Google Nexus. You can try it on other devices but I don't expect it to work universally, especially HTC and Samsung devices because their framework is heavily modified.
If you enable this module and Tinted Status Bar together, the color for the Home/Menu/Recent/Back buttons will be controlled by Tinted Status Bar while the Search button color will be controlled by this module.
If you're also using GravityBox, you must disable Navigation Bar Tweaks. Otherwise, this module won't work.
Currently the following devices are supported: (to be updated)
- Sony Xperia ZR stock 4.3 ROM
- Sony Xperia V stock 4.3 ROM
- Sony Xperia ZL stock based custom ROM/eXistenZ
- Sony Xperia SP ExistenZ 3.3.0
- Sony Xperia T
- Sony Xperia M dual stock 4.2.2 ROM
- Sony Xperia Z1 4.4 ihackers 4.1
- Sony Xperia Z1 Compact stock KK ROM
- Sony Xperia Z stock 4.3 ROM
- Nexus 5 stock 4.4.2
- Nexus 7 (2013) stock 4.4.2
- MUCH i5s
- Moto G stock 4.4.2 ROM
- Moto X stock 4.4.2 ROM
- Samsung Galaxy Lollipop or older devices (you need to set qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 in build.prop to enable Navbar)
- Samsung Galaxy Marshmallow or higher devices
- Sony Xperia X series devices Marshmallow ROM
Credits
I used this guide to help me develop this module. This document is outdated but the concept is still the same.
Huge thanks to atticus182 for his great work of Softkey collection

Thanks to C3C076 for his wonderful GravityBox! This module uses some of his codes for search button actions.
Supports & troubleshooting
If you're using Android 6 and are unable to see folders when importing image files for user define theme, you need to grant Storage permission in App settings.
If you find that this module doesn't work on your device and see FC repeatedly and both notification and navigation bar disappeared, don't panic! Just run Xposed Installer, disable this module and reboot.
If you want me to add support for your device, please send me the following:
- Xposed log file
- Your device model
- Android and ROM version
- Deodexed /system/app/SystemUI.apk or you can send me a link for the ROM
** CM ROM is not supported because it has its own implementation of NavBar **
Source code
You can find source code for this module from GitHub here.
Download
Xposed Module Repository | Play Store23Instructions to use user define button image:
- Prepare your own buttons images in PNG format. Name the files using the following format. You don't need to prepare all of them. Stock image will be used if a user define version is not found.
- Copy the files into your internal sd storage. Any folder under the internal sd storage is fine. Very often, you can access this using the path /sdcard/.
- In Select theme screen, there's now a new theme called User define
- If this is the first time you select User define, then you should see a list of folders in your internal sd storage. Otherwise, you should see a new button called Import button images
- Navigate to the folder where you've stored the images
- If successfully detected, it should shows the number of image files found
- Tap Confirm button
- The module will copy the files into it's own cache folder so your copy can safely be deleted now
- Restart SystemUI or reboot to take effect

Currently, the buttons are evenly spaced among the available width of the navbar.
For example, if your device is 720px and you choose to have 5 buttons. Then each button will occupy 144px.
I plan to add 2 options: left and right margins.
Using the above example, if now you choose to have 50px for left and right margin, then the spacing will become:
[space 50px] + [button 1 124px] + [button 2 124px] + [button 3 124px] + [button 4 124px] + [button 5 124px] + [space 50px]
The effect is the buttons are closer together with more space on the left and right sides.
Please let me know what do you think about this implementation.3Love thus work, many thanks.
Is it possible to have the menu button hide on its own, only show if needed like on the stock?
And would be great if users can adjust the distance between the buttons and the size.
Great work,
Sent from my C6603 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Not sure about the menu button hide because that needs considerable change in the module. Anyway I can take a look.
Spacing between buttons will be added in next release. You cannot just change the size of the button because the image will be unfit. I also plan to allow user to select button image and I believe that's a better option.
