[REQ] Custom Screen Gestures - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Custom Gestures like these jailbreak tweak on iPhone that I can do whatever I want. For example I can go to home screen by swiping using 2 fingers from the right to left but also if possible it also have an option to hide the navbar or swiping from the bottom to up to show navbar and single tap on the screen to hide it again. I think it would be useful for someone who wants to hide navbar and play games and use applications in fullscreen mode.
examples:
*double/tripple tapping in status bar to toggle on/off the torch
*swiping gestures to open an app immediately anywhere on your screen
*gestures on the status bar to open power buttons(for people who doesn't want to press the button from behind)
I don't know if there was/were an application/mod/rom that have this tweak, but if it is available now, can someone link me to that tweak thread?
Thanks

Yes. There are a few ways you can do that. The app at http://ppareit.github.com/HideBar/ will allow you to hide the status bar by selecting it from the notifications, and you can show it again by tapping at the bottom of the screen.
The SGT7 Rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1788518) also gives an option for toggling the status bar if you hold the power button down. I stopped using HideBar after I installed this rom, because I get re-activating the status bar by accident when I had to press the bottom of the screen in a game, and the option for showing the bar when pressing the top and bottom wasn't very responsive.
The Roo case does a pretty good job of covering the Nav bar.
Thinking of trimming 1/8" off just so the Nav bar is usable.

Change Navbar Gravity

Anyone know of a tweak or setting to change the gravity of the navbar?
It is driving me crazy that I can't just set it to stay at the phones physical bottom,
That would allow me to rotate the phone to choose if i want it on the right or left side.
Now I have it on the right side no matter what or at the bottom if I choose phablet mode, neither of which suits me.
Guess what I am requesting is a toggle to set standard AOSP navbar behaviour.
Another small issue, choosing custom icons on the navbar doesn't do anything.
And two feature suggestions.
An option to set a navbar toggle for PA's immersive mode when that arrives.
An option to insert navbar toggles anywhere not just at the far right. The problem with the current behaviour is, that you have to redo all the nav buttons, if you want to add an extra button at the left side.
Great work guys!
This is imho by far the best rom! :good:

Nav Bar Gestures

Will you be using the new features that eliminate the nav buttons? although you loose the long press options on nav bar
why not
I like the new feature, but I badly miss the menu function (long press} of old navbar, OnePlus should add this function as additional gesture
I liked it, but it's a bit bare now and needs a few preferences to suit everyone.
I admit I was skeptical at first about the swipe navigation posts earlier, but I now can see the benefits.
it's great except for Back not being responsive enough, Home is good
Yes I'd love to replace my Xposed Edge + GMD Gestures combo with a stock feature, but only if we are able to customise the duration of the animations / duration of long press, and if we can enable and disable individual gestures independently. Because the back gestures are wacky, the other ones are good except for the sluggish animations.
Very nice this gestures but have some little bugs:
1. Back gesture not work very good.
2. Can't start Google assistant (long press home button ???) - partial resolve by: "OK Google" or Nova Launcher
3. Same situation on Recent and back button (long press actions) bye bye
The back gesture is not fast enough.
However, gestures are interruptive and fun to use.
I still would love to have the disappearing nav-bar with a simple toggle to bring it up and take it down.
If there was an option to go back to last app with no waiting time it would have been great. For now I will switch to stable or different rom.
I would definitely prefer the back gestures as is on iPhone or Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 (Maybe more models too), just sliding from the left side of the screen or right side of the screen. It is a way easier and more reliable than now.
I like a lot the new gestures feature, like someone said in the previous responses, some customization for the gestures will be greatly appreciated.
No because I use a very similar just MUCH more cutomisable method with better results.
I disabled Nav bar using jOneplustools app via new quick settings option and use this app instead. https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...ation&hl=en_GB
called: Swipe Navigation
FULLY customisable long press actions and sensitivity. Compatible with most roms and quick and easy to set up.

Lock button in navigation bar?

My previous phone was a HTC One (M8) and the HTC software gave me the option to add a lock button in the navigation bar. I've grown very used to having one right there and I miss it this handy feature with my new LG G6, particularly because the hardware lock button is less accessible.
Is there an easy way of doing this without rooting and going the ROM root? I've tried installing the SystemUI Tuner but it does not have an option to add a new button to the navigation bar.
For what you need exactly, i think is hard.
But why do you need it? Just double tap in the status/notifications bar. Also, in Home and if using a custom laucher, double tap also should work.
For now just using knock on and knock on and off by double tapping status bar is what I do.
Thanks for the replies. I didn't realize you can knock the status bar to lock.
It's definitely a good temporary measure that I'll be using for now. Unfortunately, my hands can't comfortably reach the status bar to knock it, so I'll still be on the look out for a way to add a lock button to the navigation bar.

How to remove back and recents gestures?

I'm trying to emulate Android 10 gestures and I'm pretty close to that - back gesture from the sides is there, swipe up from home button for recents also can be replicated. The only problem left are the stock back and recents gestures. I would like to get rid of them (and their bars on the hint navbar) and leave only home button with it's bar. And that's the problem, I don't know how to do it.
I can remove home and recent buttons on the regular navbar using ADB, but this method doesn't affect gestures, I guess it stores the setup for that somewhere else, any ideas where is it or at least how to find it out? I don't have root unfortunately.
I don't want to use third-party apps for that because they all seem clunky for me, I have to disable the navbar by resizing it to 0 which breaks the hard press home button which I want to keep
