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:

I use rooted N4 with PA Rom and Joker kernel. Joker has given the biggest smile to my battery. And believe me, I have tried almost everything that's out there.
In Roms though, I have been on PA right since the beginning... I love the hybrid feature too much to leave it for any other rom.
So my personal prefs:
1. Extraaa Space: I use expanded mode. But I wanted the notifications to be seen easily. So I have two extra ways to pop up notifications from me (apart from in the pie):a) TabUI mode in PA: Multiple ways to have notifications is only supported in the Tablet UI mode.
b) Apex Launcher (Free): Set up a gesture for 'Show Notifications'.
c) I use LMT launcher for and extra added notification.
2. Apex Launcher:I use 3 gestures: Swipe Up: Show Notifications
Swipe Down: Toggle Dock
Double Tap: App DrawerAnd after these, I don't need the app drawer icon as well (as you can see in the first screenshot)
I have decresed the icon size of the dock items and drawer items as well. The icon pack is Holler wht.
3. LMT:I did not want to use it since I already am using Pie. But LMT has some cool options. As you can see in the screenshot, my LMT pie is quite minimalistic: Button 1 is Notifications (Longpress-> Menu),
Button 2 is Back (Longpress -> Home), and
Button 3 is Recent Apps (Longpress -> Previous App)
The main reason for me to install was the lack a quick back gesture in PA's Pie. With LMT, I simple swipe from the center of the right (or left) border activates button 2 (ie Back). It is the height of awesomeness. Though what I would love is Pie to have similar functionality, probably a swipe in the screen bottom for Back, but it may not go well with sweep2wake.
You can have many more buttons and settings on LMT. Try it!
4. Dashclock widgetWell, it is already a heartthrob of many of us. But it lacks customization. We should have an option for the font sizes and control over which components we want to see in the side (only the icons) and which in the bottom scroll view (full text).
Anyways, it was too big for me, so I changed it's hybrid properties. I am using 220 dpi for the widget. I had to remove and reapply the widget after changing the settings.
Note: Halo is another way to get notifications in PA, but I do not like it in it's current stage because of two major reasons:
1. Does not work fully with TabUI. In other modes, either I need to have a status bar, or rely only on Halo.
2. Relying on Halo solely does not serve my purpose, because when I come back to my phone after say a few hours, I need to see all my notifications at once without trying to swipe through the entire screen.
Hope you enjoyed the show (and tell!)
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
Hey guys, so I've followed a guide to get immersive mode all the time, just wanna say first of all that is awesome and that I regret not taking a look at it sooner, finally the 6.2" are actually 6.2 (I just thought it would have worked like ****); I was wondering if it's possible to extend immersive mode to when the keyboard is open, it works perfectly everywhere BUT when the keyboard is open.
Thank you!
I don't even know what immersive mode is? haha Where is the setting for that and what does it do?

That would be the ability to hide the status bar as well as the navbar so that you can get the full size of the screen with nothing wasted. What I really liked is that you can choose either navbar or status bar or both although I ended up choosing both but still it's good to have the choice

Where can this be toggled on? and if the navbar is invisible then how do you go back the homescreen/ back to the previous page?

You can see it by swiping up from the bottom and you can see the status bar by swiping down from the top. This is the guide I followed

Not quite the same thing, but if you want more screen real estate and don't want to full-on hide the status and / or nav bars, you can come close to "immersive" (and increase viewing area) by tweaking dpi in Developer Options, changing font / zoom in Display, and working with keyboard sizing--some discussion here https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/view-content-screen-t3594320 .
I tried the adb - immersive, and it works fine. Issue I had was that a couple of apps that I regularly use have their own app-specific nav bars at the bottom of their window, and swiping up to get the system nav bar with my fat fingers invariably interacted with the app's nav bar. Now, I use the higher dpi setting which yields a nicely larger viewing screen with much smaller status and nav bars.

I have (fortunately) none of these apps since I'm really loving this immersive mode, the dpi trick can work indeed, I had 560 ish set as min width, I still kept that even though I'm in immersive mode now but I'm really glad everything is working properly
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.
Since most of today's phones have a notch, why not this one too?
Imo, it would look better using the secondary display as a part of the main display.
Only the notification icons would need to be shifted a little more to the right.
Like, is it even possible to disable the hardware keys, enable a navbar and on the navbar modify HTC's immersive mode button to not only hide the navbar, but the secondary screen too?
And, like on any other HTC, when you's swipe up from the bottom of the screen it would show the navbar again, but this time also the secondary screen.

That's dope. I guess it just needs a little bit more tinkering to show stuff properly the right way up.
