I would like to say "Good-bye" to stupid system bar,get real full screen for apps.
But we use backward key often.
Is there any app can use gestures to control backward?or exit apps just like IOS.
You can use Button Savior to duplicate some of the system bar buttons on a small dock.
I made an invisible back button, works nicely aside for occasionally covering some element of an interface. If that's a problem you can also set it to pop up with a swipe from the side of the screen.
I use SwipePad a lot too, a free app switcher, can also be set up to launch ADW with the effect of a home button.
What I like most is that after launching an app with it the Back button will bring you to whatever app you were using before instead that to the home screen.
What I'm missing now is some widget to keep track of notifications when the status bar is hidden, any suggestions?

Thanks,Button Savior works fine for me.
You can try type "notifications" on market search.
I am tring Iphone notifications lite now,Good luck~
I know I'm a bit late on this, but I'd like to throw GMD gesture control in as a suggestion. I've been using it for hiding and showing the statusbar and for the back button. It works perfectly and lets you define your own gestures as well.
+1 for GMD its absolutely awesome

I use gesturecontrol pro to hide status bar, switch apps, and run my own custom apps/actions. I would recommend it. Worth the price and supports an xda member!
Definitely GMD, bought it a while ago, it's one of the apps that changed the way you use the 7.7 fundamentally...
+1 GMD. It's perfect. No bar + gesture. It works perfectly..

GMD Status Bar fix for ICS
Old message: You have to install BusyBox from market (look for some BusyBox installer) if StatusBar hiding is not working after upgrade to ICS. I'm working on solution that would not require BusyBox.
Update: after 2.5.5 no need to install busybox.

I find that the wallpaper disappears still with the upgrade though after I reload home a few times it will randomly return

the wallpaper disappering is a known bug and the developer can't seem to get around it - when GMD ends the statusbar app it kills the wallpaper app with it. Try live wallpapers.
Other that this, GMD is absolutely awesome.
Hello friends.
GMD. I have been using GMD since day one. Love it but now I have an issue.
Hide bar works. A bit slow. I'm using live wallpapers.
Anyways...
The back button doesn't work at all.
The message "back" shows.
Then "GMD Gesture Control has been granted Superuser permissions"
Then....nothing.
Nothing....
Anyone?
Home works too.
I have ICS. I have root. Odin: Cwm+root.zip. Not mobile odin. Couldn't get it to work at that time.

Are you using SuperSU as root binary? If its Superuser, please install SuperSU from market, start it, update binary. Start GMD grant permission. Superuser on ICS is hit or miss experience. While most common things work, there are some not so commonly used functions that don't work.

Now here is a list 5 essential app that made my nexus 6p experience that more greater and hope it will do the same to you. Most of these app do required you to be rooted for the most benefits and can be found here on XDA or on the google play store. Also i want to know your top 5 apps.
1. Viper4android - Great for audiophile, you can turn a of pair of 50$ headphones sound like they cost 500$. Have your music sounding like you are in the studio.
2. Xposed GEL Setting- This app will let you keep your google launcher but add all the customization feature from Nova launcher and a few other.
3. Adaway- Must have if you like fast website load time but hate ads that take up the hold screen. Also save data.
4. Greenify- If you thought that Nexus 6p have a great battery life now. This will change your life with there new feature in the setting called aggressive doze and other enhancement. i'm get 2.5 day on one charger with moderate use. (you may be able to get even better battery life if you tweak your kernel/Rom setting.)
5. Navigation swipe With the great screen that the Nexus 6p have, i hated that the navigation bar took up so much of it. With this app say bye bye to the bar and hello to gestures. basically you swipe up from the bottom of the screen to the coordinating button you setup in the setting.
I hope you loved my top 5 apps for 2015. :victory:

Are you keeping thread open for everyone's favorite 5?

Yes.
Good list, I had not heard of a couple of your selections. I'm always glad to hear about what's out on the interwebs.
My preference for robust gesture controls is GMD Gesture control, it allows you to pretty much program any gesture actions. I've used it for 4 years, you can't go wrong honestly. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.goodmooddroid.gesturecontrol I use a 2 finger angle swipe to kill apps, 1 finger up flick in the top right corner tio turn the phone off. 3 finger V swipe to enable Waze. Double home tap for Google now. 2 finger pinch for recent. 3 finger swipe for app switching, 2 finger swipe tio go back with an app. And a lot more.
Another solid alternative to adaway has been the xposed module MinMinGaurd, you can find it via xposed, or here: http://repo.xposed.info/module/tw.fatminmin.xposed.minminguard but on a side notr, I enable ads in some apps that I really like, to support those that dont have paid versions.

How did you hide your navbar?
Not sure how he's done it, but I have a swipe bottom right gesture that puts my phone into full screen mode. Then swipe right to jump out again.

Navigation Swipe is great! Thanks!
It was exactly what I was looking for.
I'm used to the nav bar taking screen space, but I'm worried about burn-in, and this app gives the fastest way of using these keys without showing them (faster than pie, and much faster than swiping up do show the keys and then press them)

i was able to hide it use a custom rom and just disable the navigation bar in the setting. The developer did had a early version that allow you to disable it in the app.
Several of the custom ROMs have the feature of pressing on an edge of the screen, i.e. right or left, which then brings up an overlay screen where you draw a shortcut letter - i.e. S for Settings and then it would launch the Settings screen. In Temasek's ROM, it's called Gesture Anywhere - I am unable to find the apk. The current ROM I am on does not have this option. Has anyone seen this either as an App on the Play Store or as a module for xposed?
Thanks, in advance.

Viper4android is really amazing! Totaly agreed!
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've been using a OnePlus 6T and Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 regularly and have become very much so used to swiping to go home, back, recents, etc. In fact, picking up my old Pixel 2 XL feels like a step back in terms of usage.
I understand there are apps that can mimic the gestures, but they aren't always 100% and can sometimes cause issues (Fluid N.G. definitely doesn't work 100% of the time and can be clunky feeling). The native gestures found on OnePlus, Xiaomi, Huawei, all feel great since they were made for the device and what not.
Based on every bit of footage I've seen thus far on the Galaxy S10/S10+, there are navigation buttons by default. Does anyone know if Samsung has made any gesture navigation to use instead of the buttons? I never thought I'd get used to using gestures but now I can't go back.
Cheers!
Yep Samsung does. Slightly different then others, but basically swipe up on left side to go back, swipe up middle for home, and swipe up on right side to go to recent apps. That is provided you have the navigation orientation the way it's supposed to be with back button on left and recents on right. Swipe up and hold middle for Google assistant

Personally I am not a fan of the Samsung gestures and 3 swipe zones can be complicated if you use different hands at times. It is one of the cons I am considering for getting the S10 as I would have to install fluid if I got one
you can completely hide navigations buttons in android pie - samsung - and use gesture (swipe left, right up down)
i am using them and it was difficult at first and i still get the random misfire but is better as you get 100% screen no button bars
you can find this option in settings

On the play store there is an app called edge gestures and there's also one made by Francisco named fluid ng. Both are very good.

No, it's stock button layout. You can enable the gestures if you so choose.
Talking about gesture, anyone know how to activate/how works the gesture to close an app?
I can see it on a few videos but can't replicate it for some reason? Are we suppose to swipe up a few times?

I'm not talking about the bottom swipe, I'm talking about apparently anywhere on the screen swipe.
i switched from iphone x to s10
and am using the samsung gestures + FluidNG , but limited the Fluid Gestures to only back from left and right parts of the screen the same as i do with the iphone , so now everything is good without the need for ROOT etc..
Try the Good Lock app from Samsung Galaxy Store. The app gathers all the enhancement software from Samsung in it. The one hand operation + uses gesture and is configurable.
Anybody using or can test if third party gesture work on X90Pp? for example this: edge gesture https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ss.edgegestures or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.conena.navigation.gesture.control.
Thanks in advance for those who want to try.
Hi whilst I haven't used either apps I did try another edge-gesture app which worked just fine. You can also customise (function and area) or deactivate native gestures so that they won't overlap with the third-party ones. Hope this helps.
