[Q] tiny/hidden navbar mod needed - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi all,
I am hoping someone can help me with a fairly simple request....
I use gesture control on my phone rather than navbar however every mod that disables navbar disables my status bar too.
I still use my status bar and notifications drop down a lot so this is a problem.
I currently use miui v2.1 and the closest answer I came across is using mi tools to drop DPI of navbar to 26.
Can someone please explain how this mod works?
I'm thinking if I reduce the DPI further to say like 1 DPI it will still have the desired effect of keeping the status bar.
Or if its not difficult could someone make a flashable mod?

Just answered my own question so request is no longer needed.
For anyone wanting to know, edit your build.prop file and add the following on the end.
qemu.hw.mainkeys = 1
The space between mainkeys and =, as well as the space between = and 1 is important. Save build.prop then reboot phone with navbar gone.

[Q] Deactivating status bar toggles

Does someone know of a way to remove the status bar toggles? Is there a file to modify in systemUI.apk or framework-res.apk?
yes there is a way unfortunate im not that skilled
I'm listening... I'd love to get rid of the mobile data toggle. The others are useful, that one isn't.
I hope there is someone out there knowing the answer as I like to use my own toggles app and having two of them doesn't look goog at all.
Also I saw this screenshot showing a blue clock in the expanded notification bar and would like to know what to modify to change the color of the clock and the date? (this came from a Mod which included the toggles, I would only need the file and passage to edit for changing the color)
Any help is appreciated.

hide your status bar retaining function

Hi All
not sure if any one has seen this just reposting , using LMT or Pie along with this mod makes your screen look really large with the full HD resolution

hit thanks if it helped..
+1
Well, if you gonna do it, that would be cool) but it would be even coller if transparency will be for only 25%
I was trying to do it but i've got errors when i was trying to decompile systemui
There is my SystemUI (https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B3EVQbXIsV_PRC1iV3c3VE5MYkE/edit?usp=sharing)
And framework-res.apk (https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B3EVQbXIsV_PcEZINUZsWmdtaGc/edit?usp=sharing)
ok guys that method is a bit more complicated using KA07 tweak I disabled the nav bars and installed LMT and used the app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=be.ppareit.hidebar this one to hide my status bar now I have full screen as home and for apps
here is a screenshot
if you just pull in the blankscreen top the status bar appears back

Help with xblast and gravity box kk pretty please.

I'm constantly messing about with my phone, anyway after uninstalling both of these mods and back to installing them again, I seem to have lost a setting... somehow...!
These are the only two mods I had so I know the setting I'm looking for is somewhere in these but it seems to have gone!?
It was a setting that made the profile icon (vibrate/mute icon) in the status bar invisible... not just changed it's colour, actually invisible. When having to reboot my phone the icon did come back up but as long as I just did a quick change over of vibrate back to mute or vise versa then it became invisible again.
Pretty pretty please can anyone help tell me where this setting is??? No, I'm not imagining it and yes it does or did exist between one of these two mods.
Happy to try any other stable mod if anyone knows of one that will do the same :-\
Re:
GB. StatusBar tweaks/QuickSettings Managment/Statusbar QuickSettings Tiles/Ringer Mode. You should be careful messing about with those 2 mods. They overlap and could have your phone fighting itself if you set the same thing in both mods. It could be a double knock out.:crying:

Don't worry, I only use xblast because gravity box doesn't seem to do the full transparent status bar, I should probably change it to a less bloaty mod!
I followed the settings above but that only changes it when the status bar is expanded doesn't it?
Cant get transparent notification bar on asus memo pad please help

Notification panel

I want to ask the devs here or anyone who know, is there anyway that I can change the looks of notification panel ?
For ex: in HackeroneUi rom, there's a zips given to flash them to change the notification panel .. I love Samsung notification panel so much, and huawei .. so how can I make my panel like them as total ?
I tried Materia statusbar app but I didn't like it !

Lol that hackeroneui status bar zips only change the background of the quick settings and the header.
Changing the whole status bar means changing the systemui. Changing the systemui app means framework and ART compatibility.
Framework and ART compatibility is only possible if the ROM is different, or you mod the source and compile a ROM yourself (very extreme. Second method only for expert devs)
So in short :
No you can't. The max you can change is color, background, arrangement of tiles, number of tiles.
Workaround 1 :
Use los13 or a substratum-compatible rom.
You can find Samsung themes for cm13/los13 (by hdhr) on play store and they usually have font,sounds,status bar, icons,app themes, android framework theme.
Workaround 2:
Buy the phone with the UI that you like.
(That's it now. Don't make more threads or posts about changing such things. Be satisfied with what you need)

Gestures and status bar icons coming from OP6t

Hi I'm looking for suggestion options or just tricks that would allow me to change how gesture controls work. I am coming from OP and much more prefer swiping from the bottom to go back as I have to many things that go into menus from left or right so is there a app out there that allows better control of that.
Also all my previous phones had the ability to hide status bar icons by default or by pressing the gear settings icon, is that available in 11 or with pixel 5?
Thanks for the help.

For navigation, I use Fluid NG (I don't have this phone however).
Pixels don't have the ability to hide statusbar icons.
Thanks! Requires root?

On Android 11, yes. Fluid NG cannot hide the navbar on 11 so you have to do it with some method that requires root.
Oneplus 8 pro coming tomorrow.
Actually, system UI tuner shortcut from Brian c in the playstore will let you hide statusbar icons without root.
Navbar is a different story!
Icons is what I wanted will try. Ty
Worked great! Ty
