Is there anyway to enable immersive mode or expanded desktop in the oos beta?? I want to hide my status bar to decrease the chances of burn in and I'm not really wanting to go to a custom ROM currently. I'm enjoying the beta

If you have root, use this and this. It works for me.

This works stupendously!!! Nice share. After install you simply open the notifications tab, tap the edit pencil , and move the "immersive" mode tile over and click it give it superuser rights and it let's you customize to your liking. I'm now enjoying the expended desktop. Thanks again

Can anyone confirm that Substratum themes work on this phone?
Substratum wont work on this phone until we have root. Android Pie only allows Substratum to work on rooted phones due to Google's deletion of the overlay management service.
Cool, thank you. It's working on other rooted devices running Pie right? So it's a pretty good shot it'll just work once we have root?

did they say why they deleted the overlay management system? That was a great addition to the Oreo version.
Oh yeah any other device running Pie that is rooted Substratum should work fine depending on the theme. Once we get root we should be good to go.

They probably wont ever say but they dont like us tinkering around with their apps. There was a petition to keep OMS in Pie but they just ignored it and decided, as they usually do, to do what they want. Its the same thing with the Old style navbar,,,the code was there like OMS, just leave it in there for users to use it if they want. I have been with Android since it started and the "freedoms" we once enjoyed are being slowly eroded and choices taken away. Pretty soon we will be Apple and everything will be proprietary.
Annnnd yet another feature taken away from us! I mean really,,,I use this feature just about everyday and now its gone probably like this Pixel 3 will be when I send it back to Google!

I think they just blocked 3rd party overlays, not dropped OMS completely. IF there was no OMS, then Substratum wouldn't work properly, right? A ROM would need the necessary commits from Subs team (frameworks, etc), like we had to do with Nougat. Yet, you can run it on stock AOSPie, as long as you're rooted.
I may have it wrong, lol, I know I'm just ready to get my P3XL
Root is hopefully right around the corner and then Substratum can work,,,cant wait!

Oh no I rooted as easy as any other phone and my themes applied fine. Some people may not be applying the themes right on Pie. I was even able to get rid of that God awful gesture navbar and get the old one back so I can flash my navbar theme.

Not sure why I didn't try it. I just assumed it wouldn't work. Not only does it work, everything is themed.
Thanks for saying something. That white ui was painful.
Swift Black on the 3 XL is a God send
Now in all the System and Google apps, you can't even tell there's a notch. Everything has a beautiful silky black look, and you just see the time in upper left and network info in upper right, and no idea there's even a notch in the middle as everything is black which totally hides the notch completely, but it's nice to see that info in the upper corners, makes the screen look like it goes all the way to the edge.

Unless the procedure is different on the P3XL as compared to my P2XL on Pie, the procedure is as follows.
Install the latest substratum from the play store, and grant it root and storage permissions.
Download a quality theme, and there are several.
Open substratum and tick the theme you want to apply.
Select "build and update" to create the overlays you want. Once done, reboot the phone, then go to substratum again, open the manager, then check your overlays, and select enable.
That should do it :good:
I think someone already answered but most forget to go back into Substratum and click enable on all the overlays that you built previously then rebooted. Its not like Oreo where all you had to do was just build and enable. Now, you have to build and enable then reboot and go back into manager and enable the built overlays again.

I am themed on the Swift series, but I did not know about this rebooting and enabling again. I was wondering why it wasn't working at first I would reboot go back into it and then an able again just out of frustration that knowing that was the right way to do it but seems weird to have to do that extra stuff now

Can confirm themes work just have to reboot after applying them and re enable them after reboot.
If I may ask how did you change the navbar ? And put those icons ?
I made a Google doc and posted the link below for my themes to help people that may run into problems,,,if you scroll down the last page there is a guide to enable the old style navbar. The icons are part of my Substratum theme Amazed Navbars.

Hey guys, the Android update hit my phone this week, and it moved my back and recent buttons back to their stock positions on the old nav bar (I had them switched so that back was on the right, since I'm right handed and prefer it that way) . I was able to switch them using adb shell on android 9 forever ago. Does anyone know for sure if that old trick will still work on the new Android? Or has anyone else found a good way to do it already?
Thanks!
Same problem here. I was using the Custom Navigation Bar app, but it won't work on Andriod 10.

I was going to suggest that app, too. Since it's not working, I'll definitely wait to update to Android 10.
Also not working is the clear all feature if you use anything but the Pixel launcher (like Nova, etc.)
I just updated to 10 as well and I noticed the same thing & was wondering if there was another way to swap the back & recent buttons since the custom navigation bar app doesn't work.
Driving me crazy to have the back button on the left side lol.

Your public ID's would be different. If you would upload your SystemUI.apk I'll take a look.
Edit: It is an extremely simple mod. You don't even have to decompile and recompile anything.
Unzip your SystemUI.apk. in the res/layout folder pull out the back.xml and recent_apps.xml. Swap their names and put them back. Zip back up, change the zip name from SystemUI.zip back to SystemUI.apk and you are done.

Yes, I'm on 10 and got the file from /system/product/priv-app/SystemUI
Edit: I swapped the back.xml and recent_apps.xml and replaced SystemUI.apk as you guided and flashed it as a Magisk module.
Now I see the back button on the right with 3 button navigation!!
However, it doesn't seem to work with 2 button navigation as the back button disappears.
I will just stay with 3 button navigation now. Thanks @Tulsadiver!

Yes, it doesn't work with two button because on two button the right button goes away and now your recent button is on the left and it now goes away also. You are left with just a home button.
I'm still on 9, rooted. I did this that I found on another thread. It's not mine, but it works. I'm rooted with a teminal app. It may work for you as well... Here's hoping it does.
Either adb shell if connected to a laptop or su in the terminal app then the next line:
settings put secure sysui_nav_bar "space,back;home;back,space"
I use the pill and prefer having 2 back buttons. Try it however you want.

Hey Tulsa, great mod thank you. Is there any way to get the back button moved for the 2 button navigation too? Or a way to revert back to standard. Flashing this breaks the back button on 2 button and makes it disappear completely lol. I'm using 3 button for now but was just curious.
Edit: dawned on me that I can disable the module... Duh. Would be nice if this worked with 2 button too.
Hello everyone. Good morning guys, We already know that it is not possible to completely remove the status bar without root or through third party programs. It's really frustrating that you use apps or games with a dark bar at the top and you can't enjoy the full screen. Samsung really is very dumb not to give the user the option to choose how they want to use their own phone. So I'm seriously thinking about rooting the device, but I wonder if it's really possible to hide the bar in root mode.
thank you all for your attentionIs

Hey,
I reached out to the dev and that's what he told me: "Android 12 support is planned but I need a lot of time to focus on it and I currently don't have much of it. I still have Pixel 3A in the drawer which I can use for development of Android 12 version of GB, though."
So it's probably coming but nobody knows when. I think C3C076 will let us know.
