Has this feature been made avaliable to the 6t? Hoping a rom with it comes out soon. That's all I need the rom for essentially ?

I also was trying to find out if this is possible. I tried to enable sticky immersive with adb and it made the top bar black like you were disabling it in the settings menu. I like being able to swipe down to see everything but feel apps could be better using the notch area. I didn't like turning them all off in ui tuner either.

Use the app called immersive mode manager to set modes for apps and make sure you goto your Android settings and enable full screen mode for all apps. This will enable a swipe down status bar when immersive mode is enabled

I tried the app and got it working. The only problem is apps like chrome, Nova launcher still cut off the notch area of the screen. I appreciate the idea. Maybe this will get figured out later down the line.

You can get nova to work by enabling full-screen mode in the phone settings. Unfortunately for some reason Chrome isn't listed on the list of apps, that's why you have the black bar up top.

Got Nova working. I installed Dolphin browser for now until Chrome can be used. I appreciate the help! I had my 5T set up the same way with the sticky immersion.

I like immersive mode and find it much easier to type when in it but the problem is swiping up to make the navbar appear often inputs text that persists when I reopen whichever app I'm in.
Just wondering if there's a way to have a button on the keyboard that either functions as a navbar within the keyboard, toggles the appearance of the status bar/navbar akin to a swipe down or up from the screen edge or simply minimises the keyboard.
Not very interested in using 3rd party keyboards. I like the look and feel of stock/AOSP keyboard so would prefer to keep it for the moment.
Thanks.
When does the keyboard go into full screen mode? I've never seen this happen and always retain nav button functionality. Couldn't you just slide from the top as usual?

I have tasker enable immersive mode for me in some apps. The top of the screen is always so far away. Something at the bottom would be nice.
Maybe do expanded desktop through the power button and back to normal after using the keyboard

You need to download Secure Settings. The toggle you need is 'Expand Desktop'. It's easy to just list a load of apps that will toggle this.
Lastly you need to add an exit task to disable immersive mode.

Go to the Theme section of settings, go to search and locate theme called Material Black
There is a cost for it(can't remember I bought it way back with my S7)

There should be a way to activate System UI Tuner i thought that should have an option for enabling a night mode .... but I can't seem to enable it by long pressing the settings gear icon in quick settings on my S8.

I use Nova launcher and it works fine with the theme
The Theme updates only a few items, mainly the notification menu, the main settings menu and messaging app
For system tuner -I haven't tried on the S8, but it worked for my G6

You'll need to issue a couple of ADB commands but nothing hard.
It beats me with the prevalence of OLED screens now that google themselves or indeed Samsung don't offer a dark mode system wide as default considering the positive benefits to battery life, Google in particular seem to be making everything as white as they possibly can.
Yeah go to the theme store and search black. Should get a nice choice of blacked out themes to choice from(including a lot of free ones). My entire interface is black now. I use nova launcher with transparent app drawer and no icons on my home screen. I have the old school nexus live wallpaper with the background blacked. Transitions are seamless fading in and out of the abyss.
Download this app.. Install & follow the adb command to allow secure access for the app .. After that.. Enable the immersive tab... And add it to your quick settings.. BAM.. ENJOY THE FULL 6.2 screen.. Also.. Go premium.. It's well worth it!!

The immersive mode works well but is there a way to only hide the navigation bar?
Some of the other apps that I tried disables other apps that help with navigation like All in one gesture, etc when the navigation bar is hidden.
Here is the link for those who need it
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.leedroid.shortcutter&hl=en
Edit: Spoke too early. Press and hold gives you the options.
This is a really good app.
Going to purchase it just to show the support.
This is one of the reasons I always rooted phones.. Next is to have GMD gestures but there are alternatives that work ok.
What's the immersive mode like? Can anyone post a screenshot please?

Immersive mode is the one that does not have task bar or navigation bar.
All apps work in total full screen.

If u swipe up from the lower edge of the screen it will re appear for a couple of seconds and then goes away.
I have not used the navigation bar for the last 3 to 4 years.. Felt like a wasted space... Always used Gmd gesture control app. But that app is only for rooted devices.
For now I am using all in one gestures. Works quite well.
The screen shot shows the gestures that I have configured
Why not turn on immersive mode using adb? No apps required.

Is anyone using Nova and if so are the Android 10 gestures working? On my Pixel 4 XL they were working on Nova. Not working on the S20. Was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this?

I got the warning on the Pixel when I installed Nova that the gestures would not work but they ended up working just fine.
Same, I still might go back it but I'm liking the s20 so far. Bet there is a launcher that is compatible, I'm going to need it because I'm so acclimated to the gestures at this point.
Sorry wrong thread

The options on the "full screen gestures" nav are blocked when you use Nova Launcher unfortunately.
Temporary solution for me. Good Lock and one handed operation. At least I can get back swipe to go back.
I use edge gestures and have it setup so that swipe from left to right is back, swipe down is home, and swipe up is recents apps
Then use immersive manager to hide navigation bar. That's been my setup for a while and is the first thing I do when seeing up a new phone
Just a heads up to those looking for another possible solution

I think this is great for the home screen, but the idea is to be able to use the gestures in every app.

Edge Gestures does work in every app. It's an app in the play store that I was referring to
I was describing my setup with that app and not Nova Gestures, which I also use. Sorry for any confusion
Best way around it is use Nova launcher with fluid gestures, work awesome!
you can use the gestures of android 10 with nova using this command by adb, I have it activated.
adb shell cmd overlay enable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.gestural

Can confirm this works.
You can disable it by changing the settings back and forth.

works like a charm bro. thanks for the help. it was really helpful.
earlier i was using a Oneplus 6T, so with it even after warning message from nova on gestures, full screen gestures worked smoothly. once i moved to S20+ 2 weeks back i was looking for the option on how to enable this option as default launcher sucks once u used Nova.
I know gesture navigation in 3rd party launchers is suppose to work on oneui 2.5 on note 20 ultra. But it doesn't work very well at all.
1. Swiping up to get to recent apps is not a very smooth animation, but worse is that the current app gets positioned in the middle rather than to the right, so quick switching is cumbersome.
2. Trying to use the swipe right on the bottom for previous app is a buggy mess. It's unsmooth and pops in the recent view briefly. Often you get stuck and cannot use the app you switched to, needing to swipe back and switch back and forth to get normal operation again. After trying to use these swipe right/left gestures to quick switch apps, you cannot scroll through the recent apps view quicky anymore, one swipe always mean moving one app to the left or right no matter how strong the swipe. This stays until rebooting.
It's a buggy mess, is there any way to fix this? I'm using Nova, but the problems are the same on all 3rd party launchers.
it might be improved with Android 11
I'm using lawnchair and don't have any of your issues. Only issue swipe to home conflicts with swipe up for app draw.
Everything else works fine. I do think recents menu trigger too easily tho. I get into it when I'm trying to go home.

Oh. I'll have a look at lawn chair and compare the experience. Seems strange how there would be different results in different launchers. Trier Microsoft launcher and it worked the same. I'll make a video of the issues if they turn out being the same on lawn chair.
I just installed the Microsoft Launcher and yeah quite some few animations are missing, plus recent apps are showed blank until I swipe between them.

This is one of the bugs when using a 3rd party launcher and from my understanding, it doens't matter WHICH 3rd party launcher: they all exhibit this behavior when using gestures.

Oh so the good lock task changer is working better in this regard? That's interesting. Is the quick task changer working better too? (swiping right or left on the bottom, browsing previous apps without going through the recent screen)

I don't have any issues so you can give it a try and see how it goes. Yes, its all in the good lock app.
But animations are part of the launcher so its totally normal that you won't get the same effect from a third party launcher. My gestures work fine with Nova. No issues here. Animations are different but its a different launcher so that's to be expected too.

Just install an app called gesture control

Looks interesting but there are missing features like a swiping left or right to move between previous apps, also there's usually issues specific to this kind of solution. Haven't tried it though. It may be a viable alternative.
This app compare with the other has an advantage, that you set up the app how you want to. if you want to have left or right to go back to last apps you can do it. Like for example I have it for mine
Bottom center click
Go home
Bottom center click and hold
Google Assistant
Bottom center swipe up
Recent apps
Bottom center swipe left
Go back to last app
Bottom left swipe up
Last app
Bottom right swipe up
Recent apps
Buttom Left and right side of screen
Go Back
Top Left and right side of screen
Lauch apps
All but the buttom center are transparent
I'm using a combination of Nova gestures and One Hand Operation+, set system navigation to buttons, double tap navigation bar to hide system buttons.
Swipe up from bottom and nav / home button appears.
Use side swipe in OHO+ for back and switcher.
Use nova on home screen, swipe down for app search, swipe up for switcher, double tap home screen for notification / quick settings.

Just tried swiping right in Nova and you are totally right it is glitchy. Unfortunately it summons the recents functionality and your left with a hybrid of recents and previous page so i can swipe up to close a page thats in full size. I had never noticed because i dont really use that functionality.

For those that cannot run Good Lock (such as myself, since it is not running in my country) you can give Nice Lock a try, helps you run Good lock services anywhere
One Hand Operation+ works very well and uses very little battery.
Try clearing the system cache on the boot menu, my favorite gremlin exterminator.
I'm running nova. Not getting any bugs or errors.
