Hey all, newb here. I have a new N7 running 4.4 KRT16S. I just unlocked and rooted this evening for the first time. I wanted to try full!screen so I downloaded from the Play Store. It doesn't seem to be working correctly. I just enabled it with the default settings, lower left button doing back for click and recent apps for long press. Lower right, home on click and restore system bar for long press. First of all, when enabled the system and nav bars do not disappear. The click actions don't seem to work either. Back and Home do not work on click, but both long press actions do work.
Have I missed something here? Is this not compatible for some reason? Thanks for the help guys.
I just updated my nexus 7 to KRT16S to and I always used the expanded desktop but that's not on 4.4 Roms yet , so what I did was find the app full!screen from the play store and so far its working like a charm.??

I've had the plus version for quite some time but I can't get it working on 4.4, the navigation bar is still there.
If you have an alternative navigation set up, like lmt launcher, pie launcher etc. Could just add this to the end of your build.prop: qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
Or flash a ROM that can hide the nav bar.
Edit just in case: build.prop is in your system folder. You will need a root browser.

Hopefully it shouldn't be too much different?
FNV also has it. I knocked mine all the way down to 0, and it's gone. I'm also using GMD gesture control instead for navigation purposes, getting the most out of my nexus 4's screen

I used to do this on the Galaxy Nexus but I used LMT launcher instead. How easy is it to use GMD? I only use it for launching my universal search app

What about the status bar on top. Is there a option or mod to hide it all the time til you swipe down or something. I know the hidebar app hides both the top bar and the bottom bar at all time. But you cannot swipe down or show only the status bar without showing the navbar. Anybody knows

Lots of options open up when you get the bought app. I built my gestures to make triangles and it works really well. They explain everything and make it pretty straightforward.

I use ADW Launcher EX and it allows you to do that in settings. I believe other 4.0+ launchers have it built in.

he is asking about the google search bar at all.
Im also interested in this, buttons are a tad too big, any suggestions?
Is there a way to hide the status bar/expanded desktop on a stock/tw ROM while still being able to see "Recent Apps"(long press home) and also "Expand Notifications"(through PIE chevron target).
On AOSP/AOKP, you can enable Expanded Desktop via Power Menu(long press Power button) and still be able to select Recent Apps and Expand Notifications no problem.
On stock/tw ROMs, I setup "hide status bar" through GMD Gesture Control but it seems to be just killing the System UI process because also incoming calls ring the ringtone, but don't pop up on the screen. VERY ANNOYING lol any suggestions?
*cricket cricket*
TW is a love/hate thing for me...
Hiding status does exactly what you describe. The UI is disabled, and the functions simply stop working all together. ( Hey SAMMY !!...that was a cheap trick)...LOL
The only way I know to get the function you want, is by using the AO builds. Stock TW builds or our variants do not have this function baked in, to my knowledge....g
Are you willing to use a different launcher? Nova allows you to hide the status bar

Many thanks to enryea123 and wilhexm for how to do it here! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2128647
Followed their instructions successfully and shared it for Jedi ROM here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2286619
I wanted to switch my bottom buttons to the familiar HTC order, "Home, Menu, Back" but LG does not offer this option. While finding a solution, I found a pretty cool program that most probably already know about, but some might not. It allows you to do what I needed to do, plus much more.
CREDIT: First and foremost, all credit goes to rovo89 and his thread located here. Be sure to send him "thanks."
Step 1: Goto the Google Play Store and download, "G2 Xposed" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tinyroar.xposedlgg2).
Step 2: Download the Xposed Installer APK and install it.
Step 3: Launch the Xposed Installer.
Step 4: Go to the "Framework" section and click on "Install/Update."
Step 5: Reboot
Step 6: Launch the Xposed Installer again and go to the "Modules" section (you will also get there if you click on the notification warning you that the module is not enabled yet).
Step 7: Enable the LG G2 module by checking the checkbox.
Step 8: Reboot.
Step 9: Enjoy.
Works great! I've been hearing a lot about xposed but never knew where to find it or if it would work properly with the ls980. Thanks a bunch! I finally have my recents key again!

Already have Xposed installed using the G2 module listed in the OP. Its great being able to get rid of the volume slider and the Quick Settings bar that take so much of the notification window real estate.
Awesome thanks for this.

Does anyone know if this plays nice with XBlast Tools?
Messing around with it - cool options so far.
What if I want to remove all changes and go back to stock look? Do I just uncheck the module?

Nope. Zero lag for me. It must be something else on your phone.

Does this only effect the default launcher or can it be used on top of other launchers such as Nova?
This is absolutely perfect. With the G2 Module and GravityBox Module, it feels pretty close to PA or AOKP.

It seems to work just fine with any launcher. I'm using it with Aviate right now.

The only time my nav and status bar change colors is when I'm in an app. When I'm on the home screen they both are black.
I might ad I am using spring LS980 also how do I remove the gap after making the nav bar smaller see attached photo I am rather OCD and this drives me NUTS

This. I can't seem to get rid of the gap in the launcher. It's pretty noticeable with nav bar height at 30 percent haha

So are y'all confirming Xposed works on stock rooted phones?
I didn't think stock kerenels came with init'd enabled.
Like in nexus 10 or paranoid android rom. Status bar with nav bar in one place. For stock 4,4 or cm 19,2 stable. Thx!
As of now there is no way to get tablet ui on kitkat. Google apparently removed the code. In previous versions the tablet ui was still there just not being used.

What about cyanmod 10.2 based on 4.3?
Even the new 4.2 for nexus 10 doesnt have tablet ui anymore
Apex launcher, and no doubt Nova, allow you to combine the Nav/notification bar for a slightly tabified ui. They also allow other config options like being able to disable the dock and/or the notification bar for a full screen display.
You could look into Xposed modules for changing DPI, but I have no idea how those work with kitkat.

Sorry, I forgot that setting in Apex only disables the dock and puts a persistent search bar at the top. Not very tablified.
Since I accidentially updated to a newer CM10.2 I miss my TabletUI and even more since I saw the new ipad mini retina this weekend. I would do it on my own, but I don't know how.
Please somebody who did it in the past post an TabletUI update for the stable CM10.2 or give me some hints how to make this patch on my own.

Just would have include all the the code google removed.
But the best would be to bid farewell to this relict of the past.
(Tablet UI is now dead for more than 2 years so let it rest in peace.)

Ok, I understand. But I don't want to give up! Why should I buy a tablet with super high resolution and then waste the space with useless notification bars? I made a tabletUI Update for the stable CM10.2 for DEB: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48538860&postcount=104
We will see what the next Android Update brings...
You know that Android 4.4. introduced the immersive mode.
Developer just need to use it in their apps.
I'm on rooted stock firmware and I am wondering if it is possible to change the behaviour of a long press on the home button. I've used cyanogenmod in the past and I was able to set the behaviour for the home button to show a dial of apps/actions. Is this possible through the use of a mod or an xposed module? Thanks in advance

That's almost perfect! Thanks for that. I like the cyanogenmod version better but beggars can't be choosers!
Ideally, what I want is on the semi circle there to be icons for apps that I can set. Also, one feature that I liked was the ability to have one of the icons being a 'kill current process' icon. This will do for the timebeing though.
You can do it with gravity box.

Gravitybox is unusable for me. It keeps making my launcher (xperia home) crash. Shame as the solution looked perfect.
