Do you want Android L's navigation buttons Here’s how to get them with Xposed

One of the most popular visual changes in the Android L release is the new navigation buttons featuring the triangle, circle, and square button, replacing the usual setup we have been using since IceCreamSandwich.
Everyone is not fan of these new so-called “Play Station style” buttons. Personally, I still have mixed feelings about them – they are modern and Material design, but I think that Google took abstraction a bit far. But, if you liked them, you can use the new navigation buttons on your current device using a simple Xposed module created by XDA user prithvee.(link to the XDA post)
All you need to get that buttons is root access and the Xposed Framework installed on your device. As you can see in the screenshots above, the buttons aren’t completely identical to Google’s, so be ware if you tend to OCD about these things. You can donwload the module from here.
This MOD is another handy tool for those who want to bring some of the L features or looks to their current devices. You can also get the new system font, wallpapers, some of the apps, the new Heads Up notifications feature, and the Material-styled Google Keyboard app with minimal work, which should help pass the time until L release becomes available to the public this fall.
