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.

Wow thank you. Works perfect. And faster
I didn't see this solution before. Sure you have written it to others.
Believe I didn't use the search function enough this time.
Thank you again.

This is my first android with soft buttons, and coming from the DNA's 5" screen I would like to hide the navbar to get more screen space during games. I have root, and I tried GMD auto hide but when I hid the bar the phone just kept crashing. I just downloaded ultimate dynamic navbar and it says the safe way is to get XPOSED and install a module. Where do I find XPOSED? I had a MotoXposed but it didn't have the hid navbar option (and I couldn't get any of the other options to stick anyways) So is anyone out there using an app to hide the navbar on their Moto x? Thanks!

MotoXposed (as well as the option you are talking about in UDN) require the Xposed Framework to be installed. You download Xposed Installer, install the Framework with that app, and then activate the desired modules within that app.
Go nova settings/look and feel/ un check show nav bar.
The option in nova is notification bar! I tried the usual methods. But get system ui errors. Build prop edit will get rid of it, but that's for good.

Yeah, I don't want to get rid of it, just hide it when I don't need it

To do this with Nova Launcher purchase version will be needed. Go to Nova Settings/ Gestures and Buttons/ then pick a gester like swipe down/ Toggle Notification bar. You would have to toggle the Notification bar before opening the app.
I hope this helps.
You can always just hide it using that build.prop edit then use pie launcher (lmt launcher) to be your nav bar

This app will help you hide the navbar, and replace it with Pie gestures when you swipe from the sides of the screen. there's lots of customization that comes with it as well. Have fun!

This app can hide the navbar indeed, but it hide the notification bar and disabled the recent apps interface as well..... Cannot separate these two things......

It works fine but the usual stuff about keyboard and what not. I could see it being quite good in pro mode if you select apps that don't really require a keyboard only. I don't think it's worth using for me as I use my phone to write things, so having to many all make the keyboard appear is not worth the effort. Works fine though

I didnt get your point bro..keyboard???
I installed on one of my frends xperia z3...it freezes after some time and then no buttons are available.sometimes buttons are available but didnt work.ultimately I have to reboot the device..any issues with anyone??
I use "all in one gestures" to hide the nav bar. I've set it up like this: swipe up from the bottom right or left corner enables/disables immersive mode. That is the most efficient way to quickly hide the nav bar or bring it back when you need the keyboard that I've found. Does not require root!
It's also possible to use other gestures of course. Does not replace GMD gesture control (which requires root), but it's something!

Yes. You select gesture and set it to activate Fullscreen. When you perform the gesture you enter immersive mode. It's nice because you can quickly disable it when you need the keyboard.
Do we have any way to make the nav bar smaller yet ? It's so big and takes up so much screen retail!
If you're not rooted and don't plan to do it, you can download GMD Immersive from the Play Store for free. With that app, you can hide the navbar and/or the notification bar. Upgrading to the Pro version (through an in-app purchase) lets you set Immersive mode for each app individually. There's still some bugs to be worked out for Lollipop, but it's almost perfect on KitKat.
I think GMD some apps for root, too, that might be useful for you. Just search "GMD" in the play store.
Appreciate the response. I downloaded it but it requires root. So I can not use it unfortunately
GMD Immersive? I'm completely unrooted and I'm using it as we speak...
I'm hoping the designers will shrink it in upcoming versions of android. Considering the notification bar up top is shorter than it used to be, it really looks off balance with super-tall nav bar.
I used to always shrink it to match the notification bar height with xposed.
I have noticed some apps the nav bar disappears amd I have a full screen viewing experience. Others do not. Is there any way to force other apps to run with a hidden nav bar without rooting?

Yes it does indeed hide the nav bar on the programs you want it to but it has many undesired side effects. Mainly, not being able to call up the keyboard when needed after clicking a text entry point. You have to swipe up to expose the Nav bar and then it will show. Also, some games won't even launch unless you first swipe up the nav bar to launch game. Also if you are using a custom launcher, and you use a dock with a folder editor program, the shortcuts will not appear until you swipe up the nav bar. Some programs like Pandora and Maps do not display correctly and will be distorted until you expose the Nav bar. I have had the Pro version for months and the developer has not offered any update to it at all, so buyer beware. Cheap enough not to be to upset but it's not a perfect solution.
