[Q] [Paranoid Android] - Pie Control settings - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

So i recently instaled PA on my Nexus 7 and so far it's been ok, I like the ROM but the main reason I installed it was for the Pie control / Immersive Mode without having to install a module for it bt still being able to use the THEME engine from CM11 (my fav rom)
that being said, I've been trying to find the settings for the pie control so I can make the clock and info show up quicker, is there a menu for it ? was I just not able to find it ?

Sorry, but there's no such thing.
I wish I could stop using PIE and start using KitKat controls again instead.

Yes, the NavBar. But the semi-transparent one, not the gradient one. The one you can use while using Immersive mode.

TAP the little square on top of the immersive mode button, it'll switch to another button that can give you options for what you wanna do

[Q] Navigation bar at bottom when in landscape?

I'm new to Paranoid Android and I think it's great, but I have one doubt:
Sometimes I use native navigation bar, not Pie Control. Is it possible to have the bar at the bottom when in landscape mode instead that on one side?

Ok, was able get the Navbar on the right side in Landscape. Installed Exposed Phab7 (is an on-the-fly UI switcher: select Phone in Landscape settings)! Using GravityBox for all other Navbar settings.

Here's pics of xposed Phab7 and GravityBox navbar settings...
Also, GravityBox has many other tweaks!
Hey, iam on a nvidia shield tablet, but want navbar on right side in landscape. I tried gravity box + phab7.
It moves my navbar but all buttons are gone. If i enable the cursor keys while in text, i can see the left cursor. This makes me think the buttons are just outside of the visible area maybe?
Any ideas or someone who experienced the same issue?

Immersive mode gone?

I've been searching through my settings to enable immersive mode for the home screen but I can't find it. Is it gone forever?

Uhh, it works through a custom launcher. I use Nova and my navbar goes clear at the home screen.

So I have to use a custom launcher now just to be able to hide the status bar? That's stupid! Not that I'm against custom launchers but this used to be a BASIC feature in Android Kitkat.
unfortunately day by day android is becoming matured and restricting lot of basic functions. e.g you can not disable data by single click on quick settings or third party app can not change data settings also you can not change mode of of GPS by single click. security issues and what i feel android is slowly getting close to IOS by restricting many features to make it secure. Ultimately you need to root you phone to enjoy android

As far as I know there was never a setting for Immersive mode in stock Android, it has always been up to the app to decide. There are apps that allow you to force immersive mode but I've never found them to work well.
Perhaps you were using a custom ROM that had that feature such as CM.

Gestures instead of navigation bar on OP5T

Hi.
Got my OP5T 4 days back..
Does anyone in the forum know if we can use only gestures instead of virtual navigation buttons like iPhone x..coz I hate how it consumes space at the bottom..
Previously I was using all in one gestures to control my volume in OP3.
Thanks,
Shyam
Sent from my ONEPLUS A5010 using Tapatalk
I would love if it had the same gestures as the iPhone X.
All in one gesture, and if u go down to the themes and apps portion of this forum there is a post that shows u how to hide the navigation bar
Dunno if this is what you're looking for, but on my previous device I used the app "J Touch" from the Play Store as my navbar replacement+. Haven't got my 5T yet, but i intend to load it up immediately as I, too, dislike losing that precious real estate.
Using All In One Gesture and disabled the nav bar using Substratum's Navbar Height Changer theme (requires root).
Works like a charm. No more hitting the home button when missing the keyboard space bar!

I'm doing the same but it breaks the power menu I've found. It does a soft reset instead of bringing up my reboot options. At least I think that's what's happened.

Same here, but I installed the Reboot app to fix this.
Thanks guys! I hid my navbar, and installed All in one gestures. This is nice
I use swipe navigation for gestures. But I cannot for now hide the navigation bar permanently. For infos, I'm not rooted.

How is it?
It won't launch without the location permission for advertising purposes.
I'm now running xposed to disable the navbar, but of course that triggers safetynet...
I'd really appreciate if someone could help finding a way to disable the navbar without xposed and the reboot breaking subtratum theme I would be extremely grateful!

what module are you using for xposed?

Gravitybox!
In 'navigation bar tweaks' turn on the master switch and then turn 'enable navigation bar' off.
It should work fine after a reboot!

I combined 0 nav bar height with LMT https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330150
and swipe navigation https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.suphi.swipenavigation&hl=en
You can also bind navigation actions like back, home, recent to an edge menu like Swiftly Switch. (no root or xposed required) Though you do have to enable permissions like drawing over other applications.
All of these solutions seem kinda messy and require rooting. Is there no clean way to do this without modding my phone?

Custom ROM with navigation bar hide feature like OOS?

I'm on OOS 5.1.1 and I like navigation bar hide feature on it (toggle button on the left side)
I want to try other custom roms but they don't seem to have that feature.
(Not an Expanded Desktop. It's very uncomfortable to use)
Is there any other rom with navigation bar hide feature?
EDIT: I don't want to use any root/magisk/xposed module.
exposed edge can do the work , but u need to root it with magisk first

I hope rom supports hide feature, don't want my device stay rooted or use xposed.
For now I use 'Granular Immersive' app. It is flexible in that one can configure to hide navigation by app.
But I would prefer if it had ways to configure such in bulk. Nevertheless it works fine for me.

Hi can you provide link, please
I’ve tried several custom rom and none of the them has oxygen os gesture navigation.
It’s a shame.
They provide other gesture navigation system but much less reliable and user friendly and using the button navigation bar area for some gesture but with this method you are loosing real estate from the screen(it’s like you are having invisible navigation bar button)
Oxygen os gesture navigation is superior to all crap solution custom rom offer.

Thanks following your step by step instructions , I successfully installed Xposed edge aaand it works very well !!!
Most custom AOSP roms have the Disable Navigation Bar quick setting tile. I'm using OmniROM, arguably the best custom firmware for the 5T.
You can get the best OnePlus gestures replacement app ever, right here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ivianuu.oneplusgestures
I've used for years navigation gesture apps like GMD gestures and All in One Gestures. They're much more customizable than the OOS gesture navigation and they work well in custom roms. OOS tends to kill background services in itself unless the app/service is converted as an system app. You need root but it doesn't trigger safety net and my banking apps work as well.

I like Omnirom but Disable Navigation Bar quick setting tile is very annoying.
Expanded Desktop that styles can be set style for all app, not per app and quick setting tile is much better, like in AOKP.

How is it very annoying? Once you toggle it, you don't really have to do it again unless you are troubleshooting something with the Gestures replacement.
Perhaps you're using it for a different purpose?
EDIT: Oh, I guess you just want it to come back whenever you swipe. You can add the Immersive Mode tile to Quick Settings in OmniROM using Tiles, a terrific app that adds additional tiles to QuickSettings.
