Hi there,
I'm on Oreo stock ROM S8 with Magisk root.
Is there a way to make the navbar always visible?
I want the navbar to never disappear in full screen apps and pictures and videos, as if it was not part of the screen. It should never be hidden behind a picture etc. I hate to have to swipe up to reach the navbar. Drives me crazy.
Immersive mode is the most annoying thing I can think of. Hitting buttons in apps near the top accidentally activates the status bar etc. Perhaps there is even a way to disable full screen for all apps?

For years I have hidden the notification drawer on the top of the screen, most of the info there is duplicated in my widgets, and I just don't like the clutter. However with the V20, hiding the notification drawer also turns off my second screen...which then gets rid of one of the marquee features of this phone.
I've tried on multiple launchers (Nova and Next), and the same result. I've tried permanently hiding it, and using gestures to toggle on and off.
Does anybody have any suggestions? Any rooted users know if this is a problem after root? This one little problem annoys me to no end.
Thanks a lot.
I'm on a non-rooted Verizon V20.
There is a setting that might help that allows it to be active when the display is in fullscreen mode. It's meant for videos so it might not have full functionality.
I'm rooted and I get the same thing. I use Nova and the "toggle notification bar" shuts the second screen off along with the notification bar. I don't know why they're tied together like that, it's annoying...
The second screen's "show time while content is shown" option will leave it on with the notification bar toggled off, but it doesn't do anything, it just shows time and notifications up there. You can't scroll it to get to anything.
Is there any way to disable the navbar for a full screen navigation. I have immersive mode on but when I swipe up from the bottom it still pops up. That's what I want to dis able. I already have an alternative installed and it works very well. I'm on Oreo beta so no root sadly.
Hi guys,
I have a Pixel 3 and really like One Plus gestures as you can use the phone without nav bar and get more screen state.
I have been trying some apps but I have a question and would like to know if it is the stock behavior.
Apps I have been trying are:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ivianuu.oneplusgestures
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xda.nobar
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fb.fluid&hl=en_US
I think they all work fine, but they all have a "activation area" which is just a bar (around 60px height) in the botton of the screen, where the gestures are detected.
But I cannot click anything under that area, I mean if there is something "under" that small area I have to swipe so it goes up and I can click it.
Is that behavior normal in the one plus? I dont think so.
Best regards
I just checked on the native gesture behavior and as far as I can tell, there is no reserved activation area for the OP6T gestures and anything around the bottom-most part of the screen can still be tapped. Each requires the swipe to actually activate.
Anyone know how/if Pie's screen rotation lock works with OP5? It is supposed to put an additional icon in the navbar, but since the OP5 already has a hardware navbar is there something that can be done short of enabling the soft navbar (which is dumb and redundant)
I to have been trying to figure this out. Unfortunately it seems like nobody has figured out how to do this with any device with hardware button's without using the soft navbar.
I have only used the screen rotation lock/unlock via the quick tiles. I have the fast pull down feature so its just a swipe from the top and tapping on the icon.
Is there a way to remove the notification bar in certain apps? I have tried system UI tuner and a couple other immersion apps but all these apps do is turn off the bar and move the screen down to hide the notch, kinda like just hiding the not h in the settings. I wanted to actually remove the bar and still have the screen go corner to corner for when I'm using certain apps like Reddit.
