Develop Bugs

Suggestion for new fullscreen mod.

Hi, i didn't want to make trash of development section so I came here to ask or suggest of making mod that will allow us to use 100% of the screen without any on screen buttons visible.
I know that there is a mod that is doing same thing, but it's uncomfortable to use. (You press on the screen corner and then on screen buttons magically appear)
So here's my suggestion how could it work.
You will have to put your finger under the screen on the left, right or center depending on which action you want to launch. Then swype your finger up and release it.
For example I want to go back from settings so I press back button:
I put finger on the bottom left of the phone and then swype it up to the screen and release it.
If any developer could make that kind of gesture readable by phone, and attach it to a proper action would be great
Sorry for my "not best English" I tried how I could to present my idea most clearly.
And please don't say that screen is big enough so this kind of mod is unnecessary..
Edit: See attached image below
Tapped from Defy

This actually has been suggested before and I thought it was a really good idea, but the majority of the community ripped the OP of the other thread a new one and told him to just use button savior or LMT launcher or something. It was pretty messed up. Hopefully we can actually get that sooner or later!

I completely agree. I use LMT, but it seems like it would be more convenient the way you suggested. Also less accidental presses if you swiped from the bottom.

I thought of extending lmt to support also that feature. But I would more see completely configurable touch/swipe areas. They could be placed on the left, right and also at the bottom. What do you think?

Have a look at GMD gesture control. It does exactly what you want
I also did that for myself.
App Thread: google "gmd gesturce control xda" (I cannot post any links)

Thank you for comments
I've attached image showing my idea (go to first post), so everything is clear now. I'm sure you can't do this with LMT.

I've just installed lite version of GMD gesture tool and it seems to work
Unfortunately, to use custom gestures I will have to buy full/paid version but it's worth it's money!!

Yeah its really worth the money
I tried your way of gestures and it works a hundred precent

i like the idea
now i use button savior (not good as your idea)

It's very accurate. Even if someone is having problems, try to recalibrate borders, changing border detection area and gesture size
I found this apk very useful on my Motorola Defy to activate recent apps by swyping from the top of the screen

[Q] ROM/APP: permanent nav buttons on screen?

My home, back and recent buttons on the phone are broken. I hpermanent ave root but that's not the reason.
So, is there an app or Rom which can put those buttons permanent on bottom of screen, and then make the rest of the screen the display. So it should lower the height of the viewport, and put those buttons in the remaining space below.
I've tried "button savior" app, but I don't want those buttons as an overlay.
The screen on the phone is big enough to use some of it as a permanent button area I think.

most aosp roms and some sense roms have the option to show the "nav bar" at the bottom, some even have the option to change the colour of the buttons

Try the ParanoidAndroid ROM.
You can enable those buttons in there and you can even customize them exactly the way you want them to be! (the size, color, etc...) :victory:

perfect! Can you also help me by telling me exactly where one can enable those buttons in that rom? And maybe give me link to latest version of that rom?

Pie Launcher which is for root users also provides some features..try it

Sorry for not replying for so long.
Those buttons are enabled by default, so that shouldn't be a problem. The latest version of this ROM can be found here. However, why didn't you just have a look yourself? It can be found pretty easily in the Original Development section

Action bar extension ?

Hello all
Just a quick question regarding the "action bar" I hope it's what it's called, the lower band on your screen where we have the back button home button and recent app button. Anyways,y question is, is there any app that can add like an extension to the bar to give additional functionality ?
To make my question more clear, I downloaded 360 launcher and noticed that the developer has managed to add 3 dots on the left of this bar, which when touched comes up the settings option for the launcher. How did they do that ? My phone is stock and not even rooted. But I find having an option to add something like this would be extremely useful...like placing custom shortcuts. Just look at the pictures too.

No i don't think so there's an app for that

Okay

Use Nova launcher. U can assign any gesture for it

Any setting or module that allows screen to be turned off by double tap?

How can I customize my phone to turn off screen by a double tap somewhere, like at the top on the notification bar? On my old phoneI could do this and I think it may have been an option in Gravity Box. I know there's the option to turn off the screen when double taping an empty area on home screen. But I would prefer something more accessible. Anyone know of any working Magisk modules that allow for this customization?

You can do this natively via motion & gesture settings if you are on One UI 3.0

Sorry if I wasn't clear but I mean from any screen, not just the home screen. I think it was an option in gravity box to double tap the status bar at the top to turn off the screen.

The closest setup I could find was One Hand Operation, by Samsung. You are not double tapping, but you can swipe from ANY screen.
