Hot Toggle navbar with gestures!!

I have been pursuing a solution for the navbar taking up precious screen space, maybe finding a way to hot toggle it somehow, now I found a solution!!
In the latest Xenon HD rom, there is a command(activity) within the system UI that hides/shows the navbar instantly. Using LMT, I mapped the "double swipe up" gesture to that activity with the system ui, and voilla!! Now wherever I am I can just swipe with 2 fingers up and it will either show/hide the navbar, this is very convenient especially if you dont like to go to the power menu every time you want to hide or show the navbar.

Please support the developers if you found their software convenient/useful

I been doing this with PA (expand deaktop) and using LMT for a few months now. LMT is great.

Or paranoid android extended desktop works great

Couldn't find the activity in CNA. Seems it's XenonHD specific. Any way to enable the activity on other roms?

App like GMD Gesture Control

Hey guys!
I updated to Lollipop but I really miss a fantastic app: GMD Gesture Control.
It give you possibility to draw a gesture in any screen and launch an app or a shortcut.
Now I solved installing Finger gesture launch that is similar to it but with this I always have to click on a bottom before drawing a gesture and it isn't smooth.
What app are you using to replace it?
Thank in advance.

forget it! the beste gestures app is "all in one gestures". try it.
Only there is a bug on lock screen.
ps. I use 12 hotplug (see settings)

I tried it but it just allow me to swipe from edges. I want to draw so I don't mistake launching an app when I don't want.

Nobody have any other solution?
I really miss this awesome app!

I also really miss this app. I'm impatiently waiting on the devs to make it compatible with lollipop

Probably they won't make it compatible with Lollipop since last update is from June.
We'll have to wait until Gesture Anywhere will be added in the roms by developers.

This app maybe?
Try All in One Gestures, maybe you like it?

Done yet but no, it isn't what I'm looking for.
It seems I'll have to wait until all developers will add Gesture anywhere in all their roms.

Latest liquid lollipop smooth rom has gesture control

Gesture anywhere still requires you to slide from the edge to toggle the region to draw the gestures, no?
What I like about GMD gesture is that you can assign gestures for even system stuff like volume, screen lock, keyboard etc without needing any other plugins. Is there any alternatives on this?

Good news guys!
I sent an email to the developer of the app and he replied he's working on lollipop support.

Gesture app to expand quick tiles?

Hi all. I tried both Action and Nova launchers and while I like both I'd rather just stick with the stock launcher. One thing I greatly miss though is the gestures, specifically the option to swipe down from anywhere in the home screen to expand quick tiles.
I searched the Play Store and found a couple gesture apps but came up empty. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks. Just downloaded it and it looks like it only supports making new tiles, not a quick gesture to quickly expand quick settings unfortunately.

If you're rooted then give GMD gesture control a try. Fully customizable gesture support. It's one of the primary reasons why I root my devices. I particularly like having custom edge gestures to make one handed operation very easy. I've got several apps and functions mapped to thumb gestures of various shapes/directions from the right edge. Works great.

why not just swipe down from the top with two fingers?
I know its not 'anywhere' on the screen, but its just what you want.

Because I'd rather be able to swipe from anywhere on the screen like you can set up in Nova Launcher.

Hopefully I'm wrong but my gut tells me that in order to get what you want an app would have to intercept touchscreen input while the default home screen is active . . . and that would require root.

LMT looks like the app you're looking for.

[Q] Back button remover?

Hello,
I am just wondering if there is an option available, that would hide the back button while using the P (Pill) navigation on the Pie.. I'm asking mostly because of cosmetic standpoint.. For apps like Nova Launcher etc.. I love the functionality of the Pill, but because the back button always there, my OCD won't let me use anything else than stock launcher.
By the way, I saw the feature in some Pixel 3 XL ROM, on their forum (at least I think I did saw it..) That enables the Pill to swipe right to go back (as it should be by default by Google) If anyone has any idea or suggestions I would really appreciate it.
Maybe installing Nova Launcher as a system app would work?

I use custom navigation bar app to hide the nav bar all together and have it set up to only pop up when I swipe up on the navbar area. It then goes away a few seconds later.

I'm not sure if you can get rid of the back button but why don't you give the Fluid Navigation Gesture app a try. By using it you can completely get rid of the navigation bar and use only swipes from the bottom and/or edge of the screen to navigate. You can also set up all the actions you want to be present when you swipe up or swipe up and hold etc... Give it a try, a very useful app. ??

Thanks, I will try it!

My system is rooted and FNG has root access granted, but I think it should work without root as well. Give it a try. ?

Look at my screenshot. I have 2 back buttons with the pill. The symitry helps my cdo and having 2 back buttons is convenient.
If i remember correctly, it's done through adb shell. Let me try and find the thread...
Edit: this is the thread i used to give me the 2 back buttons.

Android Q Gestures + 3rd party launchers

Been struggling with this lawnchair, nova, and pretty much every launcher i tried disables the gestures and reverts me back to 3 button navigation bar..
Any suggestions?
Funny thing is, it works fine as long as i don't set nova\lawnchair as a default - i can continue using those launchers + gestures.
Why would this funky behavior be?

It's just the way Google programmed it. Ask Google.

My guess is it has to do with the way the new gestures and their animations integrate with the launcher (the app minimizing to the icon on the home screen when swiping up, etc.) and they're working on 3rd party support for that. They said it'd be in a post-launch update, but there's no ETA on that yet.
