Just disable all apps which appears when you tap 'open settings'.
And from 'more options' disable system apps too.
You must be good to go.
Thank you its working.
I got the same issue.
It caused by facebook messenger apps.
When the application asks for permission, there will be a permission pop up display on screen, if there is any application run with screen overlay mode (just like facebook messenger or its chat head) , It will overlap the permission pop up and users will not be able to see it. After a few hour workaround with it. I found the way to resolve it without disable the screen overlay that is close the facebook messenger as well as its chat head then try again with the apps with require permission.
If the problem still occurs, Press the "List" button and end all the background applications.
So, I finally updated to Nugat last night, and now Android Auto 2.0 has a few annoying 'features' I needed to fix. I figured them out, so I'll share here.
I could no longer get to my main home screen. This used to be really handy, as I could plug in my phone, get everything setup, tap recent apps and then home to get to my regular home screen. I need to be able to do this to arm my home alarm and to launch Waze.
SOLUTION 1 - 1 Tap Quick Bar
There are a lot of apps like this, and I tried this one first, did exactly what I wanted it to, but it left too much going on in my notification pane. Basically this creates an additional notification bar that you can add settings or applications to. I added Action Launcher 3, Waze, my home alarm app, and two others to it, worked fine.
If there were a way to have a notification bar like this be active only when Car Mode was enabled, it would be my preferred method.
SOLUTION 2 - Custom Quick Settings - (PREFERRED)
This works perfectly, takes up almost no space (one quick settings tile), and looks like it is built in.
I installed this, added a quick settings tile to go directly to my Action Launcher 3 home screen (my wife set it up to go to Nova Launcher), and now I just pull down on the right side of my Nexus 6P screen, tap on the Quick Setting Tile that says Home, and bam, back at the home screen. Tap on the Home button in the Android Auto overlay and I'm back in Android Auto (I just leave it in Waze).
Hope this helps others.
Ahoi!
Finaly I installed Xposed, but now I'm facing a problem:
When I set my preferred MicrosoftLauncher, it shows only until I press Home or Backbutton from other apps or reboot.
Then again the launcher/homescreen falls back to stock Launcher3.
The dialog, asking for default launcher does not show.
Same Problem, when choosing Launcher from settings, as when starting MicrosoftLauncher by app icon.
The dialog however shows, when I choose the "set-default" option in the MicrosoftLauncher settings – but the setting only persists until reboot.
Any suggestions how to set and keep my launcher settings?

Problem is still there – any solution or hint?
I'm almost about to write some kind of script, that manualy switches to MS-Launcher after boot – does any1 know, where default launcher is stored in config-files – maybe it'd be enough to just insert the right value while init at boot…
bump…
Hi Kings and Queens of XDA.
Since updating to Oreo, the adb command that enables full immersive mode system wide, no longer works on the homepage, but still does in apps.
Question is, does anyone know of a workaround?
This is driving me nuts. Yes I know, 1st world problem, but all the same....
Thanks in advance for any input.

Tried this, doesn't work for me. I was getting glitches whereby the screen wasn't refreshing properly when going back and forth from the apps draw and some other weird stuff.
Had to uninstall the app and still the problem wasn't solved till I did a reinstall of the system.
But thanks anyway.

Nova Launcher Prime and Nougat/Oreo Quick Settings work for me. This will only hide the status bar if you use the stock launcher.

Yeah, that's the thing, I actually like touchwiz /UI 9000.0, or whatever Sammy's calling it today.
Just want full immersive on homepages, status and navigation bars just distract from the minimalist look.
Thanks though.
you may wanna try this.

The way we used to set navigation bar's height to 0 DOES NOT work anymore!!!
Here I want to share a way that I use to remove the annoying nav bar WITHOUT ROOT.
If you are interested, you can try it. I currently have a SAMSUNG NOTE 8 UNLOCKED running Android 8.0
I discovered this method based on luisshnyder's method (https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/remove-oreo-navbar-completely-t3772217), but I did more to resolve some problems he didn't mention.

After using my method, what's working:
1. A full screen with no navigation bar in any circumstance even in landscape mode or input method pops up.
2. Hard press working all the time, including when the phone is locked, screen off or unlocked status.
3. Screen capture working and also scrolling screen capture working (many users want this!)
4. You can swipe or other gestures to perform go back, home, recent app or many other functions.
What's not working:
The lock screen shortcuts cannot be displayed correctly under WQHD resolution.
Overall, you need the following software
1) Android 8.0 Oreo installed
2) All in one gesture (Free, in PlayStore)
3) FloatingMenu 6.1.9 (Free, but Pro Version works much better, don't use PlayStore version, use the apk attached)
4) All necessary software needed to run adb commands. You may need to learn how to install and use adb command line.
Now let's start:
0. Go back to your phone's default settings if you tried any other methods before (ignore this if you didn't).
1. Go to Seetings -> Display -> Navigation bar, UNcheck "Show and hide button".
2. Install All in one gesture.
2.1. Configure this app's settings in the way you like. I use 12 Hotspots Straight Swipe and make Bottom, Left, Center to be Recent, Home and Back.
2.2. Go to Personalization -> Edge Preference, Leave Opacity as it is, we'll deal with it later. set other scrollbars the way you like, I use the following value: Edge Sensitivity 50px, Edge Width 100%.
3.3. Go back to Personalization, make sure Auto Rotation is checked, while Behind Keyboard is UNchecked. For me, to make it better, I also Unchecked Toast Message and checked Animation.
3. Install FloatingMenu 6.1.9, DO NOT use PlayStore version, use the apk attached.
3.1. Configure your bottom bar the way you like, but make sure the Height is more than 200. You may need to buy the Pro version to use all three bottom bars.
3.2. Go to Settings, make sure you UNcheck "Reposition when IME appears", and set "Auto hide when landscape" to "Hide all".
3.3. Go to Advanced settings, make sure you UNcheck "Max window level", and check "Cover softKeyboard".
4. Plug-in your phone to a computer with adb environment, make sure USB debugging is ON. (Learn more about adb if you don't know this before operating)
5. In the command line, run: adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=apps,-com.samsung.android.app.smartcapture
6. In the command line, run: adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,-168
7. Fully test your phone, then make the bottom bar transparent to make it more beautiful.
8. For users who use WQHD resolution only: Go to Settings -> Lock screen and Security -> App shortcuts, then turn off both shortcuts.
9. Sometimes you need to reboot your devices.
=========================================================================================
If you want to undo the effect you made by the above two adb commands, here are the two "Recover Commands":
adb shell settings put global policy_control null
adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,0
=========================================================================================
Please reply below if you have any questions. I will come and answer regularly.
Thank you!

what do you mean by not working? the bottom bar didn't show up?
Hello. I have question.
If i set gestures from bottom, will be delay between two swipes?
Now I use immersive mode via adb + andromeda to hide navbar and first "back" gesture work normally but if i want do fast second swipe - (2x back in browser) it not work. It acts like showing invisible bar and second gesture work when hide it.
Maybe I'm not understanding the issue so forgive me if what i recommend doesn't help. The way i get system wide immersive mode is by using the bxActions app and linking the Bixby button to enable immersion mode when pressed twice quickly, this way i can still use Bixby if need be. The immersion mode works on games, FB, other social media and the home screen.You'll have to get it working through ADB only once then you should be good to go after that.

hi, please guide step by step bro, i think it's better others way i know!
After June update it seems i cant deactivete the calendar events from showing in at a glance.
When i go to the laungher settings and press "at a glance" i cant get the further settings. When i press on the calendar events for "at a glance" i can get a "preferences shortcut" but if i press it does not open the "preferences".
Is this a bug?
thnks
Not working as well , probably a bug.
I have this issue since may update, maybe even before it since I rarely look at it.
I am completely unable to access at a glance on my homescreen in any way possible.
My intent to access it was to disable it so that I could use a better, third party widget, but I am unable to access it. I have tried accessing it from the preferences tab when you long press on the widget, I've tried accessing it through the home settings. I've even wiped all the data from my launcher (I am using the default quickstep launcher) but I'm still unable to access it. Please help.
I can rise an external launcher as they don't work with android P's app switcher and recents integrations so I'm stuck.
