Anyone have a link to a tutorial or something where I can learn how to make my softkeys transparent? Maybe some with a 50% opacity? Thanks in advance for any help! And yes, I searched...
FYI: running Euroskank kang...
I'm searching also.

Have you seen the new Ubuntu Phone demo? It would be great if we had gestures like that on 4.2.1, too. No more softkeys, just pure gesture control

Sure did. It looks nice, but we'll see how polished it becomes. Android has come a long way.
That's what I think, but it seems that under to get them it will be a hard Work

Bump...
I am surprised, this hasn't been done.... I am too looking into this.
I use FullScreen Toggle to disable the Nav Bar (there is also an option for that in the AOKP-roms) and GMD Gesture Control from the Market to create gestures for the missing buttons.
For the back-button I have a gesture that starts at bottom left and just goes up, for home I have one in the middle and so on. So you "swype" from below the display into the display on the positions where the buttons would normally be.
The settings: https://www.dropbox.com/s/kk2oiqk145z7olo/2013-01-04 18.43.54.png
An app which is doing the following would be good:
hiding the softkeys
with a gesture showing the softkeys for 10 Seconds or so and hide them again
all the other gesture apps just enable me to set a gesture for back home menu etc, but a gesture for hiding and showing the softkeys would be great
edit:
LMT is able to run a script via gesture:

so it would be cool to have a script doing what i need, but i don't know how to create one

GMD Gesture can do gesture to hide and unhide the softkey. But is does not have any setting to automatic hide it after a few second.

I'm running PAC-Man ROM and am thankful for the settings that allow me to use gestures (when the S Pen's button is held) but it's a huge pain to have to hold the button for these gestures. The button on the pen is too low on the pen for my liking when I'm trying to use it as a pointing device/extension of my hand.
A couple of ideas I have had:
-the input settings that I described earlier
-the Sidebar application. I would love it if I could access shortcuts through Sidebar that emulate the back and menu keys but unfortunately the only button that can be emulated is the home key!
-CM S Pen Add-on used in conjunction with Note Buddy. I like the idea here, but I'd like to know if there's a way to automatically activate the AOSP on-screen buttons when I detach the S-Pen, but Note Buddy doesn't seem to support any extensions.
Are there any other solutions you guys have come up with that allow me to use my Note in a practical way with ONLY the S-Pen? That means I don't want to have to take any fingers off of the pen or have to lift my other hand to press the menu and back buttons.
I use GMD SPen control & cant say enugh good things about it! It can do everything you are looking for (I think) I have it open lecture notes when I detach the pen, & simulate the home button when I attach it! But you can set up any user gestures you want!
Just bought the pro version...
Very nice application...
And it's running well on carbon 1.8..
Thank you....g

I'm not really willing to shell out $6 just yet... I'll have to do some more research!
I also found another method: use the ribbons feature built into PAC-Man ROM (not sure if it's an AOKP feature) in order to swipe out a tray from the right side of the screen that has the nav buttons in it. Still wish I could get the real navbar to display by default though!
Edit: Just remembered there's also PA Pie.
To add a navbar to ANY rom that doesnt have one..
open your buildprop (in /system)
scroll down to the bottom, and after the last line, add this line
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
save the changes, reboot the phone, and BOOM, you have a navbar..works on AOSP and TW roms..

Getting a navbar to display is not the issue. What's difficult is trying to get the navbar to display only when the pen is detached! :/

I have a tasker task to launch with the help of secure settings to hide the navigation bar when spen is attached and to show it when I de-attach the spen. Just take advantage of the expandable desktop function (and select it to only hide the nav bar when pen is inserted).
Works like a charm.

Are you referring to the "Expand desktop" option under Custom ROM Actions? That option has a red circle next to it for me, meaning that it is not supported by my ROM. :'(
Which rom are you on? Is it featured in your rom?
If so, you need to turn on expanded desktop and reboot. You might also need to make secure settings a device administrator.
For me, on SlimBean, it's a red circle at first too, but it turns green when following my steps above.
Try it out and report your progress.

Hello friends!
I got my LG G Pad Yesterday
Is there a way to remove the Front Touch Buttons? I couldn't see any options in Settings! Is it possible after rooting?
I plan to use only gestures for the front key button functions... May be we can use the screen real estate more effectively if we get rid of the buttons?
Any thoughts / suggestions?
I just installed an app called GMD Auto Hide from the Play Store. It provides an auto-hide feature for the touch buttons. It seems to work well, except that it overrides the setting on the phone that lets you change the button order. I want to set up the soft touch buttons so that the "back" key is on the right to match my Samsung phone. It appears that the GMD app doesn't have a setting for that. Too bad.
Does anybody know a way to get auto-hide and also customize the button positions?

Thanks for the quick reply.
With GMD auto hide, does the display get extended to the button area or the area just becomes blank?
I am thinking of using GMD gesture launcher to to replace the buttons...

It gets extended. I haven't used it very much yet, but it looks like it does the job, if you don't mind the button order.
Ok, I played with the app some more. When it replaces the soft touch keys, it puts a red line at the bottom. I did get it to put the back button on the right side, but another issue is that it puts a "recent apps" button where the menu button usually goes, then it puts a different menu button on the right edge. I wish it would l wish it had more options to set it up the way I want to.

I tried it, but it didn't work for me. The normal soft touch keys were not hidden.
GMD Gesture is fantastic. It hide autobar (your tab need to be rooted) and replace virtual button by gesture that you can define by yourself. Moreover, the developper is very reactive..

Here's how I have my phone set up.
I set the navbar height to zero and enabled pie controls. By default, the navbar keys are pre-installed in pie, and you can reorder them however you want.
Then you can set up to 10 targets on it, with the option to long press (you set the duration ~ I have five targets plus long press on 3 of them).
Getting rid of navbar gives you more screen real estate. More screen is good. Plus it gets rid of that pesky line.
I also set my dock to auto hide after two seconds. I know that it's on the bottom. I swipe up and it appears. I don't need to see it on every homescreen. Hey! More real estate!
Thank you but I really dont like swiping around whole screen to see keys.
I did that with some xposed module, I think it was gravitybox. I've changed the order of the buttons.

Okay, it was just a suggestion.
As title. The overlays that previously worked on my note 9 no longer install.
not advertisement but you can use my app custom navbar and then enable gesture navigation on the note 10 this will make the bar extremely thin while still retaining tap buttons as well as gestures seamlessly, see the attached picture you see how close i am able to push the home button to the edge almost like the chin disappears entirely
not advertisement but if you download my app and enable samsung gesture navigation you get an extremely thin navbar with both gesture and tap seamlessly
edit:for some reason it became a doublepost

I don't think you're understanding what he's saying.
Built-in OnePlus gestures are terrible. You can see some stupid animations that can't be removed when you swipe the edges or the bottom.
What he's saying is that you can hide the nav bar and completely use a third party gesture system (without invoking the native gesture system). This allows better speed and removal of animations.

Yeah....
With this app you can use Other apps for gestures, oneplus gestures are very simple for me... With edge gestures, you can open apps, lock screen with custom gestures
So, which gestures app is the best to use?
I kinda miss the bottom left/right swipe to go back...

Mmm, Edge Gestures doesn't seem to have split bottom actions. Or am I missing this?
