How to disable swipe up gesture on homescreen? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers

Swiping up on homescreen opens up mi browser. I want to get rid of that and instead open some other app that i use more frequently. Is there any way to do this??

If you totally hate that mi browser, I have a solution for you. Use adb shell command you uninstall it. Then reboot. It will be fall back to Google app.
adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.browser

Will it work for non-rooted phones?
Any other option available? As I am not with my laptop these days.

Thanks buddy. Will try it soon!
Xiaomi should stop forcing things, its Android after all. :/

No need to use ADB and all you can disable but you cannot use any other app...

Does Google assistant work on the Chinese axon 7?

Just tried to install via mirror apk, but received message that it's incompatible with my architecture. Are us Chinese users doomed?

Did you download the version for arm64, android x.0+, and, no dpi devices?
I believe it's 440
I tried installing the latest play services and I can see google assistant already in the settings from the google app. But it still doesn't work. When i say ok google, it's just the same old google voice search. I'm also using nova launcher btw.

Same thing happens when I long press home or open google app or voice seach. In nova, I can set it to use google app, or voice search. There's no shortcut for google assistant.

Don't set a home button shortcut in Nova - leave it default. Clear all the data from Google app and the cache from play services, and then reboot. When it boots back up long press the home button and you should have either the assistant or on tap.

I've never used a Chinese variant but if you're rooted, couldn't you disable the Chinese voice app with titanium backup?

Try the Get Assistant app in the play store, or I think there's a Magisk module to enable assistant. I'm out of ideas though lol

Do you access the assistant through a long press on home button. On Chinese axon 7 this is not possible as the language needs to be set as Chinese
This is what I get

There's a adb command to set dpi.. haven't tried this personally on this phone but this should work on any android.
adb shell wm density DPI && adb reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you have twrp, just go to terminal and type "wm density DPI" then reboot.
Now we just change the DPI in the command to our default value. 640 I think, not sure though.
You can change the DPI in settings>display if you're on nougat..
How do you enable the home button to open up Google assistant? Just says it needs Chinese language
I have assistant in Google app. Changed voice button to search but it's still the old Google home voice!!! Why no option to set up the assistant
Do you manage to say "Ok Google" at any time working? Here in my phone this option is greyed and I cannot use it. Google Assistent does appears in Google, Search options in settings, and it seems to be turned on, also Google is selected in Assist & voice input and My Voice is disabled. I cannot whatelse to configure... It seems that My Voice blocks long press home functions for me.

Hiding the home button on the LG G6

You were able to hide the home touch button at the bottom in apps on previous versions but not this one...plz tell me there is a way or if the option changed...the only reason I changed to this phone is because I thought I could hide the home touch button...
the screen looks like a damn iphone now...so small, I'm coming from a note 5 and this looks horrible.
I had a v20 but returned it and got this instead, now I regret it.
You can install Nova Launcher. There you can hide everything, except the navigation keys.

well if you mean by the navigation keys these: ▲ ◼ ⏺ buttons at the bottom then it defeats the purpose if it cant hide them with nova
Like I said in other versions of LG you could hide these in the apps you want, you would just scroll up from the bottom of the screen to have them show up.
Unless what you meant is that it doesnt hide them once only its on the home screen.

The navigation keys do not have an option to be hidden with certain apps like you could do with other phones. Not sure why they removed that functionality, maybe it will be put back in with future updates.

Much of the time that they aren't hidden, it's because the app you're using is in 16:9 mode. Go into the adaptive display settings and switch it to 18:9.

No, no matter what ratio mode I use, the navigation touch buttons cannot be hidden unless you go full screen on youtube or the camera, any other app you use the navigation is always there, besides, its a known option that existed before in the home touch button option menu but now its removed in the LG G6.

what hes talkin about doesnt exist on the lg g6... The only menu or what he probably meant to say is under display options then app scalling, it does not hide the navigation buttons.
Would it be possible to hide them through ADB?
Theres no longer an option to hide home touch buttons per app..
You can do this with adb and chose wich app you want to hide the navigation buttons for, i was missing this on my s8 cause i had a g5 before. Look for immersive mode in the s8 section you should find it
---------- Post added at 12:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:55 AM ----------
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=com.sfr.android.mobiletv,com.sfr.android.moncompte,com.instagram.android,com.google.android.youtube,com.nbaimd.gametime.nba2011
Just an exemple; but full immersive mode remove the nav buttons AND the notification bar, but you can replace full immersive with something else to hide the nav bar only.

You need to have ADB on your computer:
Hide Status Bar only type:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.status=*
Hide Navigation Bar only type:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=*
Hide Both Bars type:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=*
Back to normal/default state:
adb shell settings put global policy_control null*

[NO ROOT][Guide] Disable lockscreen on Amazon Prime BLU R1 HD

Someone asked this in a thread recently but I can't find it now so I'm putting this here. If you install https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lockscreenapp.keypadlockscreen and just keep it installed (without having it enabled) it will automatically block the system lockscreen. I did this on a phone with the ads removed already, so my lockscreen just was blank (with a pin), but I'd assume it would work the same if you weren't rooted with the ads taken out. If someone would try and report back here that'd be great.
Enjoy
You may need to enable it once to make this work (you can keep it disabled after that).

I did this with my girlfriend R1 HD and can confirm that the method removes all the ads.
But, as you said, it seems that there's a default lockscreen wallpaper image somewhere in the system and it gets applied after reboot.
If you are like my girlfriend and don't reboot the phone so often here's what you can do to completely remove the ads again:
Reinstall "Amazon Offers" from the Play Store (link)
Lock your screen
Receive a notification (send yourself an email/whatsapp/whatever)
When the notification is displayed on your lock screen you should have your own wallpaper as a background and an Amazon advertising as a notification
Enable USB debugging and plug your phone into your PC, open a terminal and run:
Code:
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.amazon.phoenix
Enjoy your completely ad-free phone until you reboot (at that time you could simply repeat this process)

This process I worked at 80% in my Blu R1 HD V8.4, I do not leave the ads, only one of the book and ready nothing annoying or repetitive as before, this while leaving the root for this version.:good:
you guys should honestly just root because that amazon offers process still is running in the background wasting battery and if you force stop it it eventually turns itself back on not to mention the bloatware makes the blu r1 hd seem soooo slow
Can I do this with v9.2?

[Guide] Imitating the Google Pixel 2 (Mar20)

UPDATED Mar 20
Hello everyone,
I've been experimenting with ways to recreate the Pixel experience and I've come up with a solid solution. This will require access to adb shell and does NOT require root. You will also receive OTA updates.
Your phone will have the Pixel Launcher, the Pixel Lock Screen and most of the stock google apps.
Step 1 - Installing Pixel Launcher
Download Pixel 2 Launcher and install it.
Enable App Shortcuts
Go to Settings > Apps > ... drop down > Configure Apps > Home App > select "Pixel Launcher"
Enable Notification Dots and Calendar Widget
Go to Settings > Apps > Pixel Launcher > Permissions > Enable All
Step 2 - Set Phone to Dev Mode
Enable developer options on your phone.
Settings > About > Software Information > More > Tap "Build Number" until you get a prompt for dev options.
Settings > Developer Options > Toggle "USB Debugging"
Plug your phone into your computer.
Step 3 - Install ADB and Remove Bloat
Install ADB
Enter adb shell and use the following commands to uninstall stock apps. This does not actually remove them from the phone but uninstalls them from the current user, thus making them disappear from your app list.
Access Shell
adb shell
HTC Sense Home
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.htc.launcher
HTC Lockscreen
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.htc.lockscreen
Note: You will lose HTC lock screen gestures.
HTC Phone
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.incallui
HTC Contacts
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.htc.contacts
HTC MMS |
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.htc.sense.mms
HTC Mail
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.htc.android.mail
HTC Help
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.htc.guide
HTC Clock
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.htc.android.worldclock
HTC Alexa
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.htc.htcalexa
HTC Sense Companion
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.htc.aiclient
Republic News
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.mobilesrepublic.appy
DUAL SIM USERS ONLY
Set SIM to allow Google Phone and Android Messages
settings put global multi_sim_sms 1
Thanks to @Electronic Punk & @[Fenix]
Optional:
DUO
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.apps.tachyon
GOOGLE VR
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.vr.vrcore
HTC Weather
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.htc.Weather
HTC Quick Launcher
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.htc.quicklauncher
HTC ZOE - If you don't use hyperlapse.
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.htc.zero
Step 4 - Install and Configure Software
Phone OS
Set Display Size to Pixel 2 Equivalent
Go to Settings > Developer Options > Smallest width > Change to "411"
This is the default on the Pixel 2.
Google Apps
Install Google Phone
Go to Settings > Apps > ... drop down > Configure Apps > Phone App > select "Phone"
Install Google Contacts
Install Android Messages
Go to Settings > Apps > ... drop down > Configure Apps > SMS App > select "Messages"
Install Google Clock
Install Google Wallpaper
Choose whatever apps you want on top of these (Hangouts, Gmail, etc.)
If there are additional applications you would like removed, download App Inspector and you can get the path for any app on your phone.

Assuming you meant "Everything work well?" The answer is yes. I've been doing this for about 4 months and never had any issues with it. The biggest risk is the lock screen and phone, both work great.
In fact, I can't think of a single thing that doesn't work or has errored, but that is only based on my work flow. Perhaps others could find an issue, so no guarantees!

Just FYI for everyone who plans on disabling the Lockscreen via ADB. I did it and the gestures stop work (double tap to wake for example). Any solution for that?

I've added a note to the OP. You're right, forgot to mention it because i always disable those gestures to save battery. With the fingerprint reader as a home button, I never found them useful. Thanks for pointing it out.

OREO Permanently HIDE Navigation bar WITHOUT ROOT and use gestures to navigate

This is for QHD resolution! and make screen zoom from settings ''medium''!
Here is step by step guide
FIRST MAKE SURE YOU HAVE DOWNLOADED AN ALTERNATIVE NAVIGATION APPLICATION, I use Edge Gestures but All in one gestures is fine also.
1. Install ADB from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
2. Enable developer settings and enable usb debugging
3. Connect phone to PC
4. Put this command to adb: adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=*
5. Put this command after the first one: adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,-168
6. Enjoy:
BUGS!
Lockscreen shortcut icons will be shown half.
Google photos delete confirmation diolog wil not be fully shown but you can rotate for deleting or you can just tap to the bottom right part of the screen and it deletes it.
credit: @xdeepS for the adb command
Just tried it and it works like a charm for now!
Just a question: what are the abd commands if I would like to be back to the stock navbar?
EDIT: found!
adb shell wm overscan reset
Thanks anyway!
Happy to hear I could help!
Amazing, you could keep screen zoom to small just reconfiguring the gestures app to repositionate the navbars. Done this on mine S9 and working like a charm, no more navigations bars !!! Thank U very very much
P.S: Using oreo 8.1 launcher
Does this work also on my s8 and on my note 8?

So, had to reset the overscan because other apps r not working correctly like games and whatsapp bcause you wont be abble to return to home screen, even that gestures are enabled. What I did was still in immersive mode, return all values to 0 nd keep the gestures on. When I do the gestures all work ok and the navbar appear and disappear within seconds. But remember im using oreo 8.1 launcher, the stock launcher wont hide navbar on home page.:good: trust me, even more better than default, cant use stock anymore
Sorry my english
Been using this for a while, and while Navbar is completely hidden (I was using like ~130 pixels) it was not working properly in some apps (I had buttons that were opened under the screen, unable to press them, or only partly visible). Now I just use XDA Navigation gestures which hides the navbar AND also has gestures all in one....
For Redmi S2
adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,-82
Issue with this method... Need a fix
I have a slight issue, when I used to type a message it used to push every thing up so I could see what I am typing, but now I can't see what I am typing. Is there a fix for this ?

What do you mean
And I try to reset the overscan now, it seems reseted but when confirmation windows pop up I cannot see the options. I've tried overscan 0,0,0,0 and overscan reset but nothing..
Other phones
Can this method be used for other phones with Android Oreo?
There's a little problem. After reseting the nav-bar, it doesn't stick up. It's always hiding even if i push that damn point . Solutions?
Nevermind, found solution.
adb shell settings put global policy_control null*
