Bottom navigation bar? - Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers

Hi
I have now a Pixel 5 (my Pixel 2 got broken).
Nice phone but I don't like the new navigation idea.
Is there a way to enable a navigation bar on the bottom how did Pixel 2 have it?

[Q] Remove navigation bar in Paranoid Android 3.15

It seems there's a nonav fix that can be installed via CWM somewhere, but I wasn't able t locate the file.
Edit: Right then, never mind.
It's settings => hybrid properties => swipe right => interface => set bav. bar to 0%.

Yeah, but if ur in tablet mode, you cant change the nav bar size
I developed an app that can do this in stock rom and I just added Paranoid Android support. Would be nice if someone could try it and confirm that it works or report bugs: GMD Hide Soft Keys.
Benefits for PA:
1) you can turn on Notification with switch control to hide/show navigation bar from anywhere.
2) Quick NavBar can be displayed with swipe from bottom (similar way to Pie)
3) Quick NavBar has button to toggle Extended Mode (full screen).
More features coming :fingers-crossed:.

There is no navigation bar in the tablet mode, those are just the navigation keys in the Tablet mode on the common status cum navigation bar, the tablet mode makes your phone into a tablet and as tablets don't have a capacitive back key like the phone, tablet interfaces will have those keys and you can't get them away unless there is some MOD for it which you can search in themes and apps forum.

Hide navigation bar without root ?

I'm waiting for a stable CM/AOSP ROM to root my phone, in the meantime i was wondering if there is a way to hide the softkey navigation without root? I tried GMD Full Screen Immersive Mode with no success.
Thanks in advance

Note 9 Nav Bar

In some if my apps a settings option of 3 dots would appear in the nav bar. Since installing Android 10 those options don't appear so I can't change app settings nor back up data in those apps. I use Nova but that doesn't affect nav bar.. Any idea how to get settings dots back?
Please help if you can!
Not sure without a screenshot what exactly you mean but it might be an issue with the apps not upgraded to 10.
Another idea, have you try a clean install of those apps if you didn't already.
Is it possible the settings have moved since android10?
It is legacy apps that haven't been updated and never will be
I can't take a screenshot of where the menu used to be since it isn't there now. These apps originally used the Android menu key. Then went to 3 dots in nav bar in the right side. There is an app that creates a floating menu key by fooling Android 10 that it is a keyboard.
A real keyboard with a menu key or a menu key in Nova would be the best solution.

Go to Settings -> System -> Gestures and there you'll find System Navigation. You can disable the navigation button and use gesture navigation from there.
Hope this helps

This is very strange, I got a Pixel 5 with the gestures active with nova launcher and I have the 3 nav buttons as an option, should i choose to use it. Why are you forced to use the old navigation buttons?

Question How to force-hide the 3 button navigation bar? [Solved - temp workaround]

Hey Guys,
How do you hide the 3 button navigation bar in the home screen / app drawer - bottom ?
I have Nova Launcher, So I installed FNG (Fluid Navigation Gestures) to get the gestures, But Im unable to hide the Navigation bar now.
Any ideas ?
Alright, Figured the answer.
Go to settings, Search for gestures and enable it.
This works till a device reboot.
FNG doesn't work for me
