Guide For customize U-touch On OREO based rom And enable Soft Nav Bars - Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Guides, News, & Discussion

Hello everyone ...First of all I want to write that these trick are for all version of android(6.0, 7.0, 8.0)
Lets go straight to the point.
Don't forget to check the screenshots below
I'm going to cover two topics
1. Customize U- touch
2. Enable nav bars
1. Customize U- touch
Step 1- Download any root browser (recommend Root browser classic by JRummy apps)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummyapps.rootbrowser.classic&hl=en
All u can get in screenshots below
Step 2- Open system
Step3- Open usr
Step 4- Open Keylayout
Step 5- Open fpc1020tp.kl file as text file via RB text editor
Step 6- YOU will get this
Key 158 BACK VIRTUAL
Key 249 MENU
Key 254 APP_SWITCH
Key 183 HOME VIRTUAL
Step 7- Now remember this
Space between back virtual and home virtual is 10 space(press space 10 times before writing virtual)
Key 158 is single tap
Key 249 is swipe right
Key 254 is swipe left
Key 183 is long tap
For google assistant just type
ASSIST VIRTUAL
Add any command after any key you want
Step 8- Edit, save and reboot
Now its your decision how you want to customise it..... I'll attach some screenshots of users below so you get an idea ...
2. Enable soft navbars
Just go to system--open build.prop as text file via RB editor-- add these lines to the end and save and reboot
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

[Q] How to fix "SIM Card is from an unknown source"

Hello,
I have recently purchased a Galaxy s5 in USA.
It's a unlocked version and I just noticed that I get an error that says "SIM Card is from an unknown source",
Even though my SIM works fine I still get that error, probably because its Verizon's version.
Now my question is how do I fix it ? I read around and it seems like I have to change the name of the following app?
"vzwphoneservice.apk" to "vzwphoneservice.apk.bak"
-Located at System/priv-app ?
Now I tried finding this specific file and I couldn't.
However, I have another file named VZWAPNService.apk but once I try to change the name of it I get an error that says "Access Denied"
Thank you.
anyone?
have u got root ?

You have to root the device to do this.
If your device has been rooted, you should grant root permission for the file explorer app that you used to rename the system file.

I'm able to edit it with ES Fie explorer now but like I said I can't find the following file :

I tried changing the other files names I got here but (all the ones that start with VZ) but nothing helped so I changed their names back..
any idea what file is it ?

In order to get to know this error message comes from what app, try the following:
Install Shortcut Master app, open Menu > Capture Shortcut > Manually Capture. When the error message is being shown, scroll down the notification bar, tap on the 'Capture Shortcut' and show me what you get?

Hello, so I tried using shorcut master like you suggested.. I couldn't really find the information you wanted..
But here's a screenshot of that notification : http://i.hizliresim.com/R6oq9R.png
However, I found out that it has something to do with "setup wizard", I clicked on "force stop" (once you hold your finger on that notification you can click app info, then it takes you to setup wizard)
AND suddenly, this notification disappeared but I also found out that it'll pop up again on my notifications once I restart my phone.
Anyone

But just out of curiosity, there's nothing to be worried about right? I don't want to see that some feature in my phone got disabled because of that.
All I want is to get rid of this message and that's it, its perfect.

I'm not sure, but this method has been reported working fine. Anyway it is more safer than renaming the file, as you wanted to do. And you can always enable it again if need.
Just curiously, is your phone fully unlocked?
Can you install Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app > Menu > 'Secret Codes' > scroll down to 7465625 and tap to launch?
(7465625 is a secret code for checking SIM LOCK).
Thanks.

[5.0][CM12] How to Activate On Screen Buttons and turn of Capacitive Buttons

Hey guys,
There have been a ton of people asking how to activate onscreen buttons and disable the capacitive buttons since CM12 builds have started rolling out. Obviously, at some point, these features will be rolled into the ROM, but until then, I figured it would be a good idea to simply present a step-by-step thread on the issue. There have been answers all over the place button nothing dedicated and centralized, so I figured I would help some guys out.
Things needed:
CM12 Build on any variety (currently K900 and bpear have "nightlies" available in development. Check em out.
Root access. Just flash SuperSU 2.16 (http://download.chainfire.eu/589/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.16.zip) if you don't have it. Root is necessary.
Zip to turn of the backlights: http://www.mediafire.com/download/p385se5ia28cqab/noSoftkeyBacklight.zip (thanks @Moody for this)
1.) Activate On-Screen buttons
- Use a program such as BuildProp Editor (look it up on the Play Store) to create a new build.prop entry. Call it qemu.hw.mainkeys, and set it's value to 0. If you are doing this manually, just add the line "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0"
- Reboot.
2.) Deactivate Capacitive buttons
- Download Root Explorer or some other program that allows editing of system level files.
- Mount your system as R/W. In root explorer at least, when you get into the system, there is a button up top to do so.
- Navigate to /system/usr/keylayout. Open Generic.kl in with a text editor.
- Comment out the follow lines by inserting a pound sign (#) in front of the line:
key 158 BACK
key 172 HOME
key 139 MENU
After this, they will read:
# key 158 BACK
# key 172 HOME
# key 139 MENU
Therse are numerically ordered, shouldn't be hard to find within the document.
- Remount your system as R/O.
3.) Turn off the capacitve back lights
- Reboot into custom recovery and flash noSoftKey.zip file you downloaded earlier.
- Reboot.
That should do it! You should now have software buttons and your hardware buttons should seemingly not exist!
Any questions or comments, please leave them here.

Hi there, first of all, thanks. I am having a problem where after I disabled the capacitive buttons (Step 2) the power and volume buttons are not working. Thanks in advance.
You know how to enable menu key also?
Verstuurd vanaf mijn Nexus 7 met Tapatalk
Yes any chance of getting home button long press as search? Default is the menu button doing this.
Its not working bro
Tried and followed your steps , disabling capacitive keys works but enabling on screen keys not working even after changing build.prop , also i read in some post that enabling on screen key mod will not work in cm roms is that true can any one confirm me?
i am using following rom its CM12
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/devrom-cm12-scheduled-builds-t2938372
its very stable didnt experience any glitch till now , multi user and guest account works , all the other features are working too, try it out friends.
Pure awesomeness, many thanks for this guide. I'm back to my comfort zone, onscreen for me is just more intuitive.?
BTW, how to bring back the capacitive lights? I tried to remove the script at /etc/init.d and it only bootloops after reboot.
Edit: Nvm, found it, re-flashing the ROM brings back all to the default behavior including the capacitive backlights.

For some reason this step isn't working for me. I tried wiping cache/dalvik and it didn't fix anything
Can anyone give a screenshot of the on-screen buttons?
Is this possible to do in hydrogen OS? I love that rom, but i switch back since there is no option to turn off hardwer keys and enable software key in system?

Did you exactly this? Change theme to stock system theme then do process from video, then restart then change to your preferred theme, if it doesnt Work what is exactly your problem with theme thanx ?
Is there a free alternative to SQLite? Not sure what else I would use it for apart from this fix.

Yes sqlite debugger, you must choose app then storage for settings like in video, then settings. DB, then secure and finally you choose value and delete Last collum .

I ended up just clean flashing to fix it.

Alright, so I figured in out for ANYONE who is having trouble getting this to work. Here are the steps I took after this failed to fix the bug on my Nexus 9.
1.) Download the SQLite editor app.
2.) Open db by APP, and select Settings Storage (com.android.providers.settings)
3.) Open settings.db
4.) Open secure, scroll to final entry (themeConfig)
5.) Long press on themeConfig and select DELETE ENTRY (will entirely delete all theme overlay settings).
6.) Back out of SQLite editor.
7.) Go to Settings > Apps > All and find the Theme Engine app (will be listed as Themes).
8.) Clear Themes DATA (all of it, just tap the CLEAR DATA button)
9.) REBOOT
10.) Apply a new theme, and everything should be themed.
11.) Prosper.

Enable on-screen NavBar on Stock ROOTed Nougat? A2017U

But had no luck after reboot either way.
Any way to enable them?
It didn't work in MM because ZTE took the on screen buttons out of the framework, rather than just from the build.prop line.
I'm guessing they did the same thing in N.
needs more than just build.prop to enable on-screen key......i'll be releasing Dmix7_N (Stock Base) but on-screen keys will be disabled by default via build.prop and re-enable via build.prop
That's odd cause when I went from lineage back to stock the nav bar followed. Full wipe, full stock zip.
I have on screen working but capacitive buttons still work as well. Does anyone know of a way to turn capacitive buttons completely off and only use on screen?

Button mapper.
My stock Rooted B15 Nougat version just has an option to activate on-screen Navbar...
Setings->Features->Navigation Keys.
Is that what you meant?

That's really weird, mine didn't have that? Only thing I had under "Navigation Keys" was the ability to swap them but not display them on screen?
I did, however, flash the vR26 Permissive kernel, and that automatically enabled the onscreen buttons......It also made Nougat much smoother
I'm running the B15 from DrakenFX.
Here's a screenshot from that setting.

Been meaning to reply to this with a screenshot from "stock rooted".. There is no option to "Always show navigation bar" in stock. Not sure if DrakenFX added that, or what?
I do know the Beast Mode Permissive kernel will enable them, and I used it for a couple weeks, but while that kernel is really smooth and I had my on-screen navbar.... My battery took a fairly huge hit, and my stock camera didn't work. So I reverted back to pure, rooted, stock.
Bumping. I want to go back to the latest stock but I won't do it without onscreen nav buttons.

Fairly easy.
When rooted open build.prop (system/)
Change ro.config.navkeys=1 to 0 (ZTE kept it by default to 1 so you don't see the setting)
Leave qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 like it is
Save, restart and you'll have your enabled nav bar on stock devices.
Btw, you can disable it through settings so you can, if you want, swype down to not see it anymore.

First do check in settings/features/navigation keys/check always ON wether it works (you can disable it afterwards by putting it on "OFF" and have the possibility to swype up or down afterwards)
Second, try swype upwards from the bottom to see the navbar.
Check also if qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 is still 0.
It should work because these are simple build.prop scripts, so test out :good:

Thanks, I double checked qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 is still 0.
Navigation menu doesn't have any new option.
Tried to swipe up and down as well, nothing

OK. Lets try to figure it out.
Have you rebooted phone ?
Have you a G version ?
Can you upload me your build.prop pls. I'll take a look on it.

Thanks for trying to figure this out with me. I really appreciate it.
I have a U version but I'm actually using your [ROM][AROMA][A2017G][B08 7.1.1.][stock] SL!M³ DF!NR. I'm tempting to checkout ur [ROM][AROMA][A2017][V2.0.0B13 M!Favor 5.0 / 7.1.1.][stock] SL!M DF!NR to see if it makes any difference.
This is my build.prop

No problem. We're here to help each other out :good:
I'll give a look at your build.prop later on.
But do try the Mifavor 5.0. As I'm not mistaken, the option is built in too. So nothing to change there. And this rom is quite smooth, fast and without force closes. Perhaps try it and let me know.
Tomorrow I'll take a look at your file.

Looked into your build.prop and all should be ok. And since you installed the SLIM³ all files such as framework-res.apk and systemui.apk are overwritten in case the U models files could have been different. But as said, with all these files and your build.prop the nav bar should show up....
So for the moment i do not see an immediate solution for that matter.
As said and afaik , the Mifavor 5.0 from my rom has this nav bar build in
