Custom Navigation Bar Problem - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

OK so, I downloaded a theme on sungstratum that gave me a Pixel 2 navigation bar, the problem is when I press a key on the navbar it registers twice. (I.e When I press the back button ONCE it backs out of a page TWICE.) How can I fix this?

I had the same problem, but was not theme or sangstrum related, in fact my oroblem started exactly like yours, and worsened to the point of nav icons disappearing and later, to not function at all, It made me crazy for 2 days, I factory reset and manually installed my apps, then I found the culprit, it was "all in one gestures" it has an option to put the gestures in front or back the keyboard, I used in the back, but suddenly the problem arose, I changed to in front of the keyboard, and all returned to normal, this may no be your case, but definetely putting layers or themes cause several troubles as I have seen around here even for software updating! So, if you have some apps that "draws on top of other apps" try checking that way, luck

Upgraded to 6.1, now the scroll bar covers the edge of HTC Home

I just upgraded to 6.1 today. I set everything up like I had it previously, but there is an issue with the scroll bar on the side of the screen. On 6.0, I had HTC Home installed. The scroll bar did not cover up the edge of this application. The bar started below HTC Home and only affected the items below (like Tasks, Wireless Status, ect...). I've spent about 2 hours trying to figure this out. I'm not getting anywhere. Any ideas? Thanks guys!
I noticed the same thing everytime I close device I open contacts first then close device then close contacts that way it doesnt chop off the HTC Home where the scroll bar was. I have tried several different things in HHC Customizer too, with no change. Once it chops it off the only way to get it back I have to soft reset. Strange Annoying problem.

Thanks! That helped a lot. I dont know why I didn't see that when I was searching.
I had the same problem. I went to the today icon and removed a thing or 2 from the home page and the scroll bar went away. The home page will show only so much without causing you to scroll down.
for me it was the kaiser tweak where it says unlock screen i put it to locked and it worked

Have you tried a different keyboard?
How about getting rid of the soft keys all together?
I use "all in one gestures" from the play store.

Of course you'll have to hide/disable the navbar.

Thank you very much for your response, yes, I've tried 3rd party keyboard like google keyboard or SwiftKey, but it just same, I'm just wondering is it a software issues or hardware, because the softkey back to normal when the keyboard is close,
Sent from my LG-H959 using XDA Free mobile app
I'd certainly give my solution a try, at least. Nothing to lose but some time.
And yes, it sounds like a software glitch to me.

Soft Keys and Keyboards
Hey, I have the LG G Flex USA T-Mobile version, and it has the same problem. I think I know what caused the issue, but I don't know how to fix it. Everything was fine with my phone until I went into the settings to hide the soft keys while certain apps are open (kind of like full screen mode). Well, I checked the boxes next to all apps including the keyboards, and this is when it started.
It's my opinion (I could be right or I could be wrong) that this has occurred because of a coding glitch when hiding the soft keys when a keyboard is present. Disabling this option for keyboards is broken in that the soft keys become visible again, but the actionable view of them is still hidden.
My phone isn't rooted (there's no root option once updating to 4.4.2 except KingRoot which I'm suspicious of it being spyware due to unwarranted activities with it installed), so I can't install a different ROM; however, I did do a manufacturer reset a few days ago and the problem still remains.

So I went ahead and applied King Root just to try this fix and I am very impressed with this set up! It feels so much better to be able to swipe the screen to perform these actions rather than press a button at the bottom. Opens up more screen realty and provides an overall better UI feeling since those button icons were outdated anyways! Thanks for this response!

How to get rid off vertical bar about 1" long top right side of screens

This bar is almost like the google cards app. Hitting it will bring up interesting info. But, I do not want it. I have looked at all the settings. I must have accidentlly hit a wrong key somewhere back. That vertical bar is really annoying.
I looked some more but could not find additional info so I just did a factory reset. I know I know that this is a radical step but the bar annoyed the heck out of me. In the future I will be more careful as to which box I tick. lol
Update: Factory reset did work but indirectly. After the reset I manually entered one app at a time. The first app was Nova launcher-went thru the settings while watching for that stupid vertical bar to appear and voila it did. It was in the "App widgets"/Card background" that somehow I previously set and that brought out that stupid vertical bar. So, just shut it off and good to go. You can't beat starting fresh with a factory reset even though it took a while to get my apps backup one at a time.

Home button single press not working sometimes

Since I recently switched to a Galaxy S10+, I donated my Mi A2 to my girlfriend. After I fully wiped my phone, she installed it like any other new phone and finished the wizard. All her apps got reinstalled nicely and everything looked nice.
But now the home button (3 button nav) sometimes just stops responding to a single press. When I hold the button I do get the Google Assistant as expected, but single press doesn't take me to the home screen. After a reboot everything is back to normal, but only for a while. The button does show the colored dots when I press it.
What could be wrong? It looks a bit like some process is blocking it to prevent exiting a wizard or something (I had it once on a Pixal tablet, which thought I had the setup wizard open), but the back button does work as expected and I can navigate using different methods.

you need to.provide more info to get the right answer ..just use full screen navigation ...in settings try reassigning it different actions to see what happens ...but sounds like the delay between single press / long press for assistant is what is screwing you ...i disabled long press for assistant cos it kept giving me the assistant when i was trying to get home ....
but still.hard to say since you have 0 info about your problem here
The problem is that I don't have much more information as well. It's hard to reproduce the issue. We tried pinning and unpinning an app, opening different apps, changing the gestures, but nothing seems to trigger the issue.
I also tried gesture navigation, but that doesn't have a gesture for going directly back home. Also I think it's not possible to reassign the buttons on stock rom.
When I used the phone I never had this issue.

on my phone if i swipe up from bottom i go straight home ... by more info i mean
1. device/rom/version/root status/ launcher/ ...stuff like that
2.relevant fixes you tried ...
3. short video of when it happens
anyway .. i don't understand because you can choose what actions you want to happen in relation to the gestures ..so if you wanna go home in one shot assign that action to a specific gesture
have you ACTUALLY tried my fix of disabling google assistant ..so you don't trigger assistant or freeze by holding home button too long ..
try assigning double tap on home to go home ..as a workaround
The phone has no customizations at all: stock rom (Android One), no root, default Xiaomi launcher.
Version: Android 10, march security update (up to date according to Xiaomi)
With the gestures I can choose between:
- navigation using gestures
- navigation using 2 buttons (this is selected)
- navigation using 3 buttons
I have tried the first option. Swiping up does indeed go to the home screen when I'm in an app. But not to my default screen. Like when I swiped right to a different home screen page, it doesn't return to the first one.
I will try disabling opening the Assistant using the home button.

you should downgrade to pie because in 10 many people have lag , ui feezing and later on random reboots.. i think you will find in a month or two the UI will freeze up ..like what is happening now may be a "mini" freeze
pie is stable.. im on miui 12 official pie for wayne and wow am glad i dithed android1 and gave up my obsession of having 10 ..
I just upgraded because Xiaomi pushed the upgrade. And my girlfriend doesn't know how to downgrade.
Besides, I have been using the same phone with the same Android version for a few months without any issues. It's only since she started using it. That's why I was thinking about some wizard/setup preventing the use of the home button, which we had a few years ago on a tablet. But that was blocking more buttons then, so not exactly the same.

Home button issue

Recently my home button on nav bar is playing up, sometimes it doesn't go back home, I have to press back or clear recents.
I thought it was nova launcher but the stock launcher also does this and it's random which is making it hard to work out why it's happening.
I did upgrade to colour 13, and it may be related to that?
I've taken a short screen video, as it shows I'm clicking on home icon and it's not working, I'll message Oppo and see what they say, hope they don't say reset phone as I hate restoring my apps lol
Think I've solved this....
Basically no matter what launcher I installed, it ended up acting weird where nav buttons were concerned.
I went to settings, then recent task manager settings and locked nova launcher. I assume it's remaining in memory and not being killed.
Everything seems to be working fine now fingers crossed
Thank you for the tip!
Brilliant.... completely solved this issue that's been doing my head in for months!!!
