Hide Navigation Bar - Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers

Hi!
Has anyone managed to hide the navigation bar?
I've tryed to edit build.prop adding qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 but nothing happened after reboot. Also I've tryed different software with the same result.
Thank you in advance.

If anyone is just wondering if I solved, I did it!!
I just followed this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/ne...navbar-height-changer-android-nougat-t3447956 and navbar is gone forever. I will check battery drain but hopefully it would be insignificant.

On my new device with german stock firmware, the navigation bar sometimes hide without any modification! i´ve no idea why but after that, only a reboot brings back the navigation bar...

Thats weird, did you wipe after flashing?

Is your device rooted?

[Q] Simplest way to get percentage battery bar?

Hi All,
I know that there are many ways to get the status bar to show the battery status in percentage but all of them are kinda too complicated for my liking. Is there any way I can get it done without having to flash? Perhaps through an app?
I am on stock GB 2.3.3(JV9) rooted with speedmod installed.
Thanks in advance.

I also don't like to do some icon mods, how about you try the Battery Indicator app?
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.darshancomputing.BatteryIndicator
it won't replace your battery icon though.
for me..the simplest way it through uot kitchen

Thanks for the suggestions, but I am actually looking for something to replace the original batttery bar, instead of adding another one on the status bar.
I would like to know a way for this too, to replace the original battery with one that had the percentage in it: D

Yes, this happens sometimes, try not to install many or any SystemUI mods like Home button, Lock Button and Internet meter. Sometimes, you have to always pull down from a particular spot. lol

So, if i install the rom without xposed installer, this problem shouldn't appears, no?
I use wanam with 6 tiles on the notification panel, white icons and text in notification, circle battery, center clock, call button in logs, no sound when i press volume buttons.

Wouldn't hurt to try, and btw there is a New Base out now... Maybe wait for ROMs with new base to release, then flash with Full wipe and see.

Samsung Galaxy S8 (Android 8 Beta 2) | Remove Navbar

Hi there,
I'm new here and i hope I'll do everything right.
Is there a way to completely remove the navigation bar from the s8? I want my S8 completely controled with gestures but i dind't find a way to remove the comming up navigation bar (I'm on immersive mode).
I've tried to edit the build.prop file with adding "qemu.hw.mainkeys=1" but this ended up in a black screen where only the power options were visible.
I hope you can help me,
Simon

With root it's probably removable but my guess is is that with no Oreo root for snapdragon yet and Oreo being brand new no one has figured it out yet
You can easily remove it with the draco mod, I use it with substratum and it's great

Google search bar

Hi all.
I tried to google answer and haven't found anything useful.
Is there any chance to remove Google search bar from main screen? I tried to disable app, but after rebooting bar is still there. Just inactive. Read somewhere that it's built into stock launcher. So only way to remove it is to change launcher? No other way with/without root?
Yes, without root you can only use another launcher. I can recommend you Nova Launcher.

Yup, if root, search with root explorer in system, system/priv-app /velvet , then rename velvet ,add .bak, like this velvet.bak or delete. I hope this helps, Saludos.
EDIT: is the only way to eliminate the google search bar that I know.

I did exactly as you said. Rebooted phone. Google app is missing from app list, but still have search bar on home screen. It's just inactive (clicking on it does nothing).

Forgot to mention. I have Oreo 8.0. Tried with Pixel Launcher, but still can't remove it. Will try Xposed method now or will wait for Oreo 8.1 update?
Anyway - thanks for your help
edit: Tried Xposed with "Google search bar destroyer" and "GEL settings" modules. None of them work. So before 8.1 update arrive on our phones I'm going to try other launchers. Starting with Nova.

I tried and failed to remove the google search bar, too... I ended up with Microsoft Launcher and find it works very well for what I want. I have not used Nova launcher for about 10 years I would say so I have no ideas on it now. But you could do worse than MS Launcher.
Don't over complicate things and be stubborn about staying on stock launcher. Nova is a great alternative, and I'm sure there are others out there as well. Apart from solving this particular issue you will have much more control of your home screens and app drawer.
