GMD Gesture Control

Hi,
did anyone try if GMD Gesture Control is working on the XZ? Installed it a few minutes ago, but gestures are not working, even the back key from the nav bar gets quiet unresponsible.

I've try it, not working as good as on the tablet. I will not recommend it on the Z ( or any smartphone), on the tablet it is a must have!

Found the solution. You have to set the parser manually to ICS default.
Will try to get used to the tablet gestures. The ones for phones get activated be accident :silly:

Thanks! This did it! kinda nice for swipe from right border & back to open Camera (and you can even open it in normal mode! or scenery mode, or video mode!)

You may need to scroll down a little bit

after i installed it,my battery drops from 100% to 90% in 30 minutes without doing anything =.=

Try a reboot. I don't have any drain caused by the app

For my xperia z works very very well

GMD Gesture Control doesn't work on the Note 8

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 owe you an apology. After reading your response I rechecked my settings against your screenshot, Somehow mine was on touchpad not touch screen. All is well now. And thank you very much sir!

Never used this function. Sounds interesting.

one ui 2.0 new Google navigation gestures not available

I updated my phone today but the option for the gesture navigation option stays grey and I can't get into the menu. I want to use this nice looking and smoothly working Google bar that I've seen in the beta one ui 2.0 Videos. Is it just for me like this or are there more people with the same problem... Really don't want to reset my phone. I already reseted my settings

It freezes right? Its still updating. After a reboots ita back to normal

Select full screen gestures (the second option of your screenshot) and go on "other options" (the button immediately under it), from here you can choose Google gestures. ?

I tried but the option stays grey and I can't select it

The more option tab stays grey, I deleted cache and restarted the phone so many time already. Don't know what it is. Before the update I had a lot of unnecessary apps disabled with adhell. After the update my multitasking window wouldn't open no matter what. After uninstalling adhell it worked again. There could be a connection but I don't know which it it

Samsung seems to of broken something there. It is good news for me for whenever my carrier updates my S10+ to Android 10 as I don't like the gesture crap at all.

On Reddit there is and adb command to get it work, but didnt on mine. I used lawnchair, but Samsung one is raster imo.

In Nova Launcher settings there's a message that the new gestures aren't supposed to work with third party launchers, cause Google implemented a barrier for this in Android 10's source code which checks if the launcher is a system.app or not. Maybe it works on rooted phone with systemized Nova.

That’s a shame... Would love to use Google-style gestures with the Rootless Pixel Launcher.

Rooting does nothing. But the new security patch allows for it to work on pixel phones, check xda news, we’ll eventually get it

Got a link? I'm on Lawnchair too.

On Nova's Discord they said that this won't happen on Nova and even with Lawn chair it doesn't work for everyone. We just can hope and wait...but I have to admit that I tried the old and the new gestures for a couple of days but switched back to the classic navbar because it's easier if using just one hand and also when the phone is mounted in my car.

I'm using Nova and it's fine

You could try following the tutorial here:

It seems to work for me, but has to be redone after a reboot...

Unfortunally it's too glitchy!

Didn't work for me, using Lawnchair here.

Update
Gestures as normal work, not the side to side feature which is annoying

How they work?

Any way to use 3rd party app for gestures?

Hi!
I just upgraded to android 11. On Android 10 I used Vivid NG for gestures but because overscan has been disabled on Android 11 it's not working.
Has anyone found a way to get around it? I want to keep using gestures but I don't care for goggles side swipe too go back - it interferes too much with the apps I use

If I change to 3 button the navbar is still visible both in immersive and fullscreen. Also chrome keeps closing a few seconds after opening. I guess I'll just have to do with google's gestures for now ?
Thanks for the help anyway ?

In my thread I have a mod available via substratum to remove/hide 3 button navigation bar. You just need to have a 3rd party gestures app already setup before enabling the overlay. If you don't care to mod the pixel launcher (the purpose of my mod), then just install the apk in the second post and just build the top overlay. The last post on the thread has a picture showing what it is.

Thanks! Just tried it but I get a build error when I try to compile. If I select a grid size I can build the overlay but the overlay overview is still empty. What am I doing wrong?

I've always had issues with the regular substratum in Android 10 and have since been using Substratum Lite. That's what I recommend my users to use. Give substratum lite a try.

Do you know if there's any way to keep the collapse/switch keyboard button?

Question Question regarding custom launchers

Hello, I just got me a Y700 yesterday and after updating to ZUI 14, I started having a annoying bug that I was wondering if it's my update that went bad or if someone else has it too. If I try to use a custom launcher, the swipe up action to go to home or open recent apps, the default launcher's icon bar appears partially but the action doesn't work. Only happens with custom launchers, on the default one the bar appears fully and doesn't block the gesture. Does anyone else have this problem? Just asking before I do a factory reset if it's a problem only with mine. Attaching video showing the behavior. Video showing the problem

I have the global rom and I had issues with nova so I just use the stock launcher.

Yes, this tablet has issues with third party launchers -- any flavored Android ROM really starting Android 11. However the issues on this one is more pronounced since you are unable to use the swipe up to home gesture at all. Either stick to buttons or use the default launcher.

So I'm not sure if it's the rom or nova, but after flashing to the stock chinese rom, I can now use Nova launcher (beta) and it seems to function correctly.

Ahh yeah that’s worked for me for a while with alternate launchers. The gesture controls makes that floating dock come up. I wonder if we can disable it somehow or disable the entire launcher?

Ahh yeah.. makes sense. With the nav buttons, there's a fourth button for the dock on the right hand side that you can't get rid of, whether you're using the stock launcher or a custom one. Not a big deal.

They (Lenovo) probably didn't modify the stock chinese ROM too much since AOSP doesn't have problems with custom launchers, or the Nova beta launcher took care of the issues.
