Does anyone know if there is a way to add custom buttons to the Android System Bar in Android 3.0+ (Honeycomb/ICS)?

I would like to add an application-provided button to that menu, but I have not been able to locate any API functionality that will allow it. I know that this area is sort of unofficially “off limits” to normal, non-system-level applicaitions, but I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to do this anyway?

Note: I am speaking specifically about the “System” bar that shows up along the bottom of the screen and not the “Action” bar which each app can customize at the TOP of the screen.

Let me know if you have any thoughts on this, thanks!!!

    Sorry, this is not supported. You can add a Notification that will appear on the right side of the system bar, but not with the rest of the system buttons on the left.
