Customize Samsung navigation gesture - Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers

Has anyone already managed to mod Samsung oneui system to change navigation gesture.
I find the 'swipe on left edge for recent, swipe on right for back' kind of bad and would like to make it like OnePlus gesture.
I have made a few test and it's part of the systemui.apk so I believe it is possible to customize them. Please Let me know if someone has already done that for the S10 or another oneui device.
BTW, I know it's possible to get something like that with 'fluid navigational' or the many other gesture app, that works through accessibility service, available on the playstore but that's not what I'm looking for.

One Hand Operation+, official app by Samsung.

DELETE Nav bar, No softkeys, WHOLE screen.. goodness!!

SO I often find that on these forums peoples good work needs to be brought together in a nice little package. I have done ZERO developing, but a few good blokes have done some framework edits, and a few apps made, and now here we have it...
NO MORE SOFTKEYS, ENTIRE SCREEN USAGE, and some amazing alternatives to the softkeys
*** requires root ****
Tutorial:
1. Find an alternative you like (MUST DO THIS FIRST OR COULD BE STUCK WITHOUT ANY BUTTONS!!!!):
-I personally use "GMD gesture control", its wonderful, youtube it. They also have a lite version you can try. For full version it costs 5$ but its wondeful. four finger pinch is home, 3 finger swype down is back, and you can add custom geatures. Highly reccomended
-button savior, this and the other 2 to follow are more traditional hide nav, bring nav back. I havn't used them but they have good reviews
-gesture LMT
-gesture+pie LMT
2. I'm aware this is from samsung nexus forum, but me and many others can confirm it works the same for the nexus 7. Download the apk that pushes the modified framework. even the app warns you to have a secondary means of "buttons" before you continue. But simply instal app, open app, and click the uninstall nav bar. THEN... reboot and your set
-download the link "FullScreenToggleV2.apk -Support4.1 XDA link"

I'd just make a backup of the rom and revert back to that if you don't link. But me likey, me likey so much Thanks for all the great work boys
By 'DELETE Nav bar' do you mean the Notification bar or are you calling the softkey area the Nav bar? With a custom launcher, such as Nova, you can hide the notification bar. Interesting idea, but I think I want the softkeys.
Edit: I see that the area is commonly called the navigation bar. There is another good thread on this topic in this forum which just calls for a build.prop edit if you are rooted.

[REQ] Android Navigation Buttons - Tweaked and Customized

Hello!
I know there are some Threads about it already.
I've been searching the web (and xda) about hiding those Nexus navigation buttons in apps but with no success of what I want.
I have already posted this in Q&A but with no success.
REQUEST:
I want my navigation buttons to be ACTIVE on some apps, while I want those button to hide on the other apps with !!POSSIBILITY!! to activate them (indefinite, not only for some seconds) and deactivate when needed.
I don't want them to appear "above" everything like some apps and ways to do this offer. I want it stock, the way android 4.4 does this (eg. http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...go-truly-full-screen-hide-the-navigation-bar/)
With the latter I meant when on Home Screen - there should be transparent Button Bar (like stock 4.4) Not like apps that only offer full black ​
Do you think it is possible? Or maybe modified ROM could offer tweaked and improved android 4.4 "Full-screen Immersive mode" HERE.

Well considering the rom scene has yet to start up for cm or any other rom for that matter, I wouldn't hold your breath. I am sure it is possible, but I don't know if someone will make it, seeing as there isn't a huge demand for this. Roms like AOKP have features like autohide nav bar and swipe up to reveal but nobody has what you want (that I know of) and I don't think it will happen.

Maybe you are right, but still I hope for a solution that would extend that Immersive mode to all apps.
I already found a similar solution app called Full!Screen. It does almost what I want with one exception - I want it to activate with a Gesture - Like swipe down with 2 fingers? and deactivate with swipe up from the bottom
I don't like any notification bar toggles
Maybe I can get it to work

Lollipop compatibility issues?

Hey all,
So it's almost been 24 hours with the edge. All in all I love the phone. The design, and build quality are finally on par with what you would expect from a flagship device. Anyway, my problem seems to be a few quirks that I've noticed while trying to set up my new phone similarly to my s4.
So I use Nova Launcher because of the flexibility it offers me in it's features and customization. One of my more commonly used features is the gestures , with swiping down specifically set to expand my notifications. I don't seem to be able to use this feature at all with the edge and I'm wondering if this is a Touchwiz feature that is overriding nova?
The other problem I immediately noticed was that there was no longer an option for direct dial or direct message which I used all of the time! If there is anyone that may use nova with an edge that could help me out or maybe just verify that would be great.
Thanks all!

Direct dial works for me, but not the gesture associated with pulling down notifications - I'm having exactly the same issue you are with that. Just about all the other gestures work, but not for notification bar. I've tried doing other gestures to get the notification bar to pull down, but none of them work. Was a good feature I liked with Nova, but this is more of an issue with Nova that you / we can address with them directly I believe.
Yeah, my bad I should clarify that upon importing my nova settings to the new phone, my direct dial and direct message both worked but I was unable to add any new contacts with this feature.
I accidentally deleted my wife's direct message and had to import again to get it working properly.
You're right to contact the developers directly. Probably a feature that just needs tweaked for the next update. Thanks for helping me verify this though!

I am using the Nova Launcher Beta app and both features are working on the Galaxy S6 Edge. It asks for Accesibility permission to be able to Expand the Notifications but after you grant the permissions it works as expected. I also added a Contact shortcut to the Launcher correctly.
Hold tight for Nova to update the regular app or join the Beta program to enjoy those features now. I have not found anything bad with the Beta so far.

That's great!
Signed up, and downloaded the beta in a matter of minutes! As you said I was prompted to accept the ability to expand notification and now I feel like my phone is complete!
Thanks Pito!

Note 9 Full screen gestures on android pie

I have recently upgraded my software to the latest pie version on my note 9. A feature I find rather interesting is the full gesture control. However, when I enable gesture hints, i get this thin white line at the bottom of my screen in certain apps. Like Yahoo mail. On the lock screen and normal menu it isn't there.
When I disable gesture hints I dont see it at all on any of my apps.
It's no big deal but it just annoys me.
Is anyone experiencing the same thing.?
Is probably because it just hides the navigation bar with hints enabled which is why I'm seeing the thin strip at the bottom ?

Anybody knows how to enable the navigation bar with latest Android 9?

Hi,
I'm searching how to enable the navigation bar (3-Buttons at the bottom of the screen) on this phone. I'm missing "double tab to switch between latest apps" so much...
I already tried adb overscan command, does not work. Any other solutions?
Seems like UI doesn't allow on P.
I miss it too so what I've done is downloaded my preferred launcher.
I've tried a few but none seem to be doing the trick. You can also try downloading a 3 button navigation app but I really hate ads and it's almost impossible to find one without them.
Lastly, I'd highly recommend XDA's very own Navigation Gestures (https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/official-xda-navigation-gestures-iphone-t3792361). You can edit it to see what works for you.
