[TIP] How to Enable 2 Button Navigation on the OnePlus 8 (no root) - OnePlus 8 Guides, News, & Discussion

Presumably this also works on the OnePlus 8 Pro. Here's hoping it also works on Oxygen OS 11.
If you search under Apps and Notifications, you may notice that the OnePlus 8 still has a hidden "2 Button Navigation" App installed. That's because it's still capable of using it, even though there's no option to do so in Settings. You can enable and disable it using adb commands.
You must enable Developer options to access adb commands (Tap build number in About Phone until it tells you that you are a developer. Go to Developer options and enable "USB debugging").
If you are on Windows, download the minimal adb fastboot zip here, then extract it to its own folder and click cmd-here.exe to use adb commands.
Plug your phone into your computer. Type "adb devices". Make sure only one device appears (your phone should be the only android device plugged in . If your device appears, check your phone to see if its asking permission to use debugging over usb, then grant it.
The following command will enable the 2 Button Navigation Bar:
adb shell cmd overlay enable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.twobutton
To disable the 2 Button Navigation Bar:
adb shell cmd overlay disable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.twobutton
It's as simple as that. :good:
Swiping up from the Home button brings up Recents, and tapping the Home button goes Home, like it should.
If you are using a third party launcher, you may have to swipe up and hold to get Recents to appear while you are on your Homescreen or App drawer.

If Oxygen OS 11 still has this hidden app, then these commands should still work after updating. I would also disable 2 Button Navigation before upgrading to Oxygen OS 11 from 10, just in case. You can enable it afterwards as long as it still exists.

Does it work for Realme/color OS too

Command to delete a file via the run dialog

I am trying to delete a file in windows mobile 5.0 via the "run dialog". I was expecting that "del <filename>" would do the trick but that generates an errormessage saying that the file "del" could not be found. Can anybody advise me what syntax I need to use to delete files via the run dialog ?
WM5 / WM6 Classic and Professional RUN Dialog
(A little late reaction, but..)...
The 'RUN Dialog' does what is says!
Both in WM PocketPC / Windows OS PC we can run executables like;
beam.exe (strangly enough no shortcut for this *.exe with or without using TF3D).
ContactEditor.exe (idem).
DataDisconnect.exe (idem).
eT9MyWords.exe (idem).
FieldTest.exe (idem) .
*more shortcuts to nice *.exes which R 'missing' ah well...
Only on Windows PC we have that 'command' which is typed after Run (WindowsKey+R)!
Then after typing cmd/command and getting the MSDOS PROMPT you/we/I could use the command ;
DEL
-=[ WM5 / WM6 Classic and Professional 'RUN Dialog' ]=-
On the main Today screen of a WM Pocket PC (Windows Mobile Professional or Classic) you can tap and hold down the ‘Action’ key while tapping and holding the stylus on the clock shown on the nav bar, then hold and slide to run, then release and tap run.
!!! The ‘Action’ key is usually the center of the D-Pad or CTRL if you are using the former SIP emulator;

}
(It's just a picture, I don't have this 'skin', I am still looking for it though ).
When you release the ‘Action’ key a small popup menu will appear,
and you can select the ‘Run’ option which will display a small dialog. Within this dialog you can enter the path to any executable, as well as any required command line parameters.
!!! As an additional tip, did you know that if you tap and hold without the ‘Action’ key being pressed, a different popup menu will appear? This one allowing you to select between an analogue ~ and digital clock being displayed on the navbar!

i was on android l v12 , my device is note 3g
i tried to flash new offical miui6 via twrp 2.8 i got error
and wiped data,system etc...
so i am not able to enter recovery and even into rom what to do??
Please Help ME
It seems a problem with Windows rather than with your phone.
First of all don't worry, there are very high chances that you will recover the phone in working state. I worked for over a year with MTK devices, they brick very easily but it's also easy to unbrick.
It's a signature error, not a driver error. I remember Windows has somewhere the option to disable signature checking for drivers. Disable it, then after installing this driver you can re-enable it if you want.
I assume you are able to proceed from this step on, once phone is recognized by PC. If I'm wrong, feel free to ask
To Install Driver without Signature error.
This will Help u to install driver without signature.
What to do:
1. Hold down the Windows key on your keyboard and press the letter C to open the Charm menu, then click the gear icon (Settings).
2.Click More PC Settings.
3. Click General.
4. Under Advanced Startup, click Restart Now.
NOTE: In Windows 8.1, the ‘Restart Now’ button has moved to ‘PC Setting -> Update & Recovery -> Recovery.’
5. After restarting, click Troubleshoot.
6. Click Advanced Options.
7. Click Windows Startup Settings.
8. Click Restart.
9. After restarting your computer a second time, choose Disable driver signature enforcement from the list by typing the number 7 on your keyboard.
10. After restarting, you will be able to install the drivers normally; however, Windows will display a warning message. When the warning appears, click Install this driver software anyway.
You are now complete. I hope this will help you. Good Luck..

You want to got rid of this lock screen?
Using Activity Launcher:
1. Install Activity Launcher from Google Play or APKPure
2. Open Activity Launcher
3. Scroll down, select Settings and find the activity Settings$ScreenLockSuggestionActivity
4. If in lock screen settings, select None
Or if didn't find, try another way:
Disable via ADB:
1. Enable ADB in developer options
2. Connection your Fire tablet to your PC
3. Enter this command
Code:
adb shell
settings put secure lockscreen_disabled 1
4. Reboot
Code:
adb reboot
Or you want to watch a full tutorial on YouTube:
Disabling it via adb didn't work for me on Fire HD 10 2019.
Setting Keyguard to off in Tasker works for about a day. Running the task on device boot, you may need to wait a few seconds, and then running it every few hours should keep it off.

That did the trick, tried the adb thing before but it didn't work.
activity launcher helped me to get rid of the lockscreen. Unfortunately, I tried the ADB command before, this did not work and either disabled the activity entry. So i had to revert the ADB command with value 0. But anyway, thx a lot for the hlp here in the forum.

For what it's worth, this is a copy & paste which is my solution for non-rooted devices:
I use the Gravity Screen app on a non-rooted Fire HD10 (2019) which uses motion to unlock/ wake up the device which you can get here.
I have the app set up to "Turn Screen ON by Motion" and under it's "Special Settings", I have "Disable Lock Screen" checked:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
What worked for me on my 8th gen HD 8 was:
Step 1: Disable screen unlock in the official system settings:
Step 2: Run this:
Code:
adb shell locksettings set-disabled true
I got some error messages from locksettings once when I was trying this. If that happens to you, try this more elaborate version:
Code:
adb shell
settings put global LOCKSCREEN_AD_ENABLED 0
settings put secure lockscreen.disabled 1
locksettings clear
locksettings set-disabled true
exit
Interestingly, after a reboot LOCKSCREEN_AD_ENABLED goes back to 1 and lockscreen.disabled goes back to 0, but the lockscreen stays disabled.

[MOD] Enable/Disable Gesture Line | Hidden Settings | No Root

Enable/Disable Gesture Line
I found a hidden setting to enable/disable the "gesture line" which is shown in the bottom of the screen when using screen gesture mode instead of navigation bar.
Tested on latest Xiaomi.eu v12.1.2 stable firmware (Android R) but I think it may work in other MIUI firmware versions, maybe in other MIUI devices too.
Requirements
Properly installed ADB/USB/Fastboot drivers on PC
Enabled USB debugging on phone
How to
Open any command or terminal window, and use below commands:
Disable
Code:
adb -d shell settings put global hide_gesture_line 1
Enable
Code:
adb -d shell settings put global hide_gesture_line 0
Screenshots
Enabled

this is not working on Poco F2 global rom

This is because of the Launcher. Xiaomi decided to build this feature within the Launcher. Now since you can't install the xiaomi launcher by apk on stock rom, this feature isn't available. Unless you install weekly or beta xiaomi.eu
Doesn't this setting is here: Settings > Additional Settings > Full screen display > Hide full screen indicator?

TOSHIBA - 55UA3A63DG (produced by VESTEL)

Hello,
I have a few questions about my Android TV TOSHIBA - 55UA3A63DG (produced by VESTEL):
- Is there a Stock Firmware / ROM for this TV (Android Pie 9)?
- Whether it is possible to root and by which method?
- How can I go into recovery mode?
Thanks!
Sorry I cannot help you, but similar here:
Hitachi U55KA6150 (produced by VESTEL)
The two TV sets seem similar, therefore: I have exactly the same questons.
Thanks!
Chris
P.S.: I have adb access (ordinary user). I can provide whichever information I can get as a non-root user.
Chris56, please tell me - what happens after the command: adb reboot recovery?
Because, on my TV it appears "ANDROID DEAD ROBOT" with triangular red icon and "No command":

Exactly the same on mine!
Primarily I want to root TV.
Without root there are a lot of limitations in the customization of the device
