I'm sure you can just add "qemu.hw.mainkeys=1" in the build.prop to do this?

Then you need to reboot device and if you mess up build.prop permissions you will get boot loop. This app will allow to hide/restore navigation bar on the fly and risk free

I have installed the all bit it isn't work. It Makes another bar on the one present net.

Your device is rooted right? Metallijim in Nexus 4 thread confirmed that it works on Xperia Z and added screenshot too. Did you try version 'without.detection' ?

I have stock rom with root.. I have installed the apk and granted superuser permission but it doesn't work

It works for my phone, it would be perfect if the red trigger line turns transparent. Great works.

It's works but what does "touch" trigger mode?

Works perfect on KA07

the application launched, but in the application when i touch the menu button "...", my phone crash and reboot.

Tried the app on my ZL. The auto-hiding works and the replacement reacts, but it is rather small, like the status bar. Allowing to change the dpi of the replacement would be appreciated.

I released new update and now you can adjust bar size.

The PlayStore says it is not compatible with the Xperia ZL.

I only enable tested devices. Enabled ZL now and it should be available in a few hours, when Play Store update its cache.

Still not available, maybe you have to enable the model c6503?

Thanks alot, this is excellent, going to buy pro if I don't exeperience any weird fc's or other issues

The app works great and I like it!! Only some minor issues:
-When you change to full screen the wallpaper sometimes change to the original (known issue).
-When reboot sometimes the notification bar disappear for a minute or less.
-When you hide soft keys or show soft keys the percent battery on the status bar disappear.
Thank you

These are a bit tricky to fix, but I'm researching it. I hope to improve Quick NavBar enough that you won't need turn on/off stock soft keys often. I added Google Now button in latest dev version release.

Could you add the possibility to change the softkey distance and the possibility to change the softkey's png in the future release?...maybe only for pro. Fantastic work

I don't know about the Active, but on the regular S4 the LED light from the "hold volume up button" is noticeably dimmer than when you activate it with apps. I'm using the Notification Toggle app from the Play Store to put the LED toggle in the notification panel. It's nearly as convenient as using the volume button and it's brighter without any risk of accidental activation in your pocket.

Yea it does have that option, just not the volume up with the screen off. You have to hold the brightness slider icon in the notification panel to activate it.

Not to be a bother, but I notice it works on some peoples phones and not others. Is there a special thing that needs to be done to get the vol-up for torch working? I know how to get to the secret settings, and they're set for me. It doesn't light up for me . Any advice?
Edit:
I'm running stock rooted with Xposed and Nottach Xposed

Use power toggles from playstore. The best

NottachXposed has both of those options. The volume up function is in the Lockscreen settings. You actually don't need Nottach to access it. It's just a convenient shortcut.

I think you need a deodexed ROM. Didn't work for me until I flashed the Mint Jelly ROM (which I recommend :good.

Alright, i'll give that a try. Not opposed to flashing roms, especially if they remove all this Samsung + ATT bloatware Thanks for your help.

Just an update.
I'm not sure if it was having a deodex rom, or just simply being on Android 4.2.2 (Might be the case). But my light is working now with screen off!
EDIT:
One more thing. Enabling this setting will create a wakelock that'll keep your phone at the lowest mhz you set it to instead of letting it go into deep sleep. It's a nice setting, but at the battery cost... it's something that isn't good enough for me yet. I have a profile setup in tasker for TelsaLED on with a shake on the locked homescreen to try my best and mimic this functionality (I was looking for something that starts up at boot, and flips the LED on from lockscreen). I know there's another flashlight that does this as well, but I ran into the problem of it not booting on startup, where as I use Tasker for other functionality so it starts up 100% of the time. It's not 100% since the LED takes a little to flip on... but it's better than having to unlock.
JUST an FYI to save people the feeling of underwhelming when it starts sapping your battery mercilessly!

thats absolutly not true, i use the feature on nottachs xposed app and my phone goes into DEEP SLEEP using ktz kernel,and there is another mod that u can use called 3 minit but you need framework but that has torch when the lock screen is on by pressing the home button,but i found i would have the light on by accident ,idk how but it would jsut be on with that mod.

3 minit work pretty well you can set it to long press home
Try flashlight led genius from playstore , no root need , you shake it when your on the lockscreen,awesome app

I'm going to stick with what I think then. After I flip on the light.. it never goes back into deep sleep. Try it yourself. I'll take a look at 3 minit
FYI the wakelock it made was PhoneWindowManager.mTorchlightWakeLock

This is a feature in CM10.1. You can add it under lock screen options for long press home button. Absolutely love it.

I think your Android version needs to be 4.2.2 to do the torchlight thing through Nova. I could be wrong though.

Ok another update on this.
Since djmouse wasnt getting any sort of wakelock, I decided to try again getting it working. I enabled it through xposed instead of the nova shortcut.... and for some reason it's letting me go to deep sleep now! ... I also flashed crossbreeder... so that might be the savior. Not sure, but happy to report the wakelock seems to be lifted. I'll report back after a few days if it stays that way.
THanks djmouse for challenging me to try it again!

Using an app called Torchie, just press both 'volume buttons' together to turn on/off torch anytime. It runs as a background service and just works anytime, even when screen off (if enabled from Torchie Settings). It kinda make your phone feel like a conventional battery operated torch. No root required.

GMD Gesture Control doesn't work on the Note 8

I've used GMD Gesture Control on the Note series ever since the first one - without any problems. It doesn't work on Note 8, gestures don't get recognized, most of the time it's dead, sometimes a weird gesture will get interpreted - it says in the changelog Nougat 7.0 support was added last - so maybe not useable on 7.1.1 yet... It's a bummer though.
Anyone know of a suitable replacement?

Try All in One Gestures, seems to work fine (except immersive mode)

I solved it…

Has anyone noticed that when in the system setting ( not gmd settings but system settings ), gestures from middle and lower half of the right and left borders do not work?
Gestures from the top half of either side and lower border work with no problems.
Edit : It seems that the same thing happens with all Samsung apps
Will post in the general GMD thread

I owe you an apology. After reading your response I rechecked my settings against your screenshot, Somehow mine was on touchpad not touch screen. All is well now. And thank you very much sir!

Never used this function. Sounds interesting.

Rotate Upside down - Root

Hi,
Can anyone help me enable Upside down rotation on a rooted Note 8?
In the wireless charging doc i need to put it upside down because of a ring on the back, and it would be great if the lock-screen and everything could rotate accordingly.

Use a "rotation" app from playstore to get 180 rotation...

You should be able to rotate the Note 8 upside down and it should rotate that way.

I tried 2 "rotation control" apps, Android P rotation, Rotation orientation manager. Only the last one allows upside down orientation, and it does not work for the lockscreen, which is what i was looking for.

Is wish it were that easy. They stopped allowing upside down rotation for phones about the same time they got rid of buttons, i guess to not confuse the user, but i would still want to have that choice.

Thanks, it works for the lock-screen but it has some weird interactions. The lock-screen closes in less than 3 seconds, and when you reopen it, it's upside down . It does not work for the AOD.
Do you know of a way to keep the lockscreen on for more time? I have the lock set to 1 minute, but the screen turns from lockscreen to AOD in less than 5 seconds.

Yeah, sorry i haven't used that app for a few years, stopped using it when it wouldn't scale landscape home screen correctly.
You could try using the s9 "launcher" maybe it will interact better with the rotation app..... but be aware in my experience message/email etc badges don't show at all (on icons), so definitely not a great solution....but that launcher does have built in rotation.....just not 180 i believe. Also if i remember right the setting in tw settings also enables lock screen rotation...again not 180 but might cooperate better with app.

ADB to restore 2 button navigation

Not sure if this is the right place for this but does anyone know if this adb command still works to restore 2 button nav now that the 4XL has been released?
adb shell cmd overlay enable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.twobutton
I've been trying to use full gesture nav since I got my 4XL a few days ago and I hate it. Looking for any way possible to get the pill back.

If you go into settings on your Pixel and search for Navigation - you will see there is an option to turn off Gestures and use the old Navigation - I prefer that way much better too - can't get used to Gestures - at least you have the option to use it when you want and go back to the old way when you want.
Hope that helps.

That's the first place I went but the 4 XL only gives you the 3 button option and I don't want to go back to that either. Feels like a rock and a hard place.

I believe that Artem from Android Police stated that the adb command no longer works, I'll see if I can dig it up.

Ah man, thanks for this! I've really been trying to get used to using the gestures, but I need a break! I have found for the most part the gestures work for most things, but for others it seems a bit buggy, so it's nice to have options and totally missed this setting to switch back and forth so thanks:good:
