How, without root / flash?

I use Notification Toggle: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.notificationToggle
I think it's the best one because of its customization options and the fact that I can download stock ICS icons for it. Plus, you can add apps (free, included in app) and shortcuts ($0.99 add-on). Like I have the shortcut for my AudioManager Pro Profile list in there and an icon that runs the Lockscreen app (saves pressing the power button to shut the screen off).
I'm not rooted. The only useful thing root would give me is the ability to directly toggle GPS rather than having to go to the settings page, but considering I almost always leave GPS on, I don't really care about that.

+ 1 for that......im using too and it is awesome.....

elixir2 does this also...

I also prefer Notification Toggle over Widgetsoid. Stock icons and the ability to always have it at the top of the notification screen. My only complaint is that it's a little laggy when tapping thru the brightness settings.

I use AoKp to do this without using a app....:beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer:

If only I liked AOKP. *sigh*

Thanks for the recommendations, shall have to try these, because besides themes, the notification pulldown with a plethora of settings to play with are what I miss most from MIUI builds on the HD2.

Much easier to install a custom rom than an app right? lol
Anyway, +1 for Notification Toggle. I was using Extended Controls for it but Notification Toggle is much better since it stays on top of other notifications and it also replaces the Battery Widget that I was using to display the battery % in the bar.

so have any of these been updated so that i don't have a constant icon running in my notification bar? i don't know why but that's a dealbreaker for me.
btw, i'm not rooting yet until CM9. temporary solutions without the annoying notification icon?

Thanks OP
Forgot about widgetsoid and how awesome it is. Between this and Nova launcher gestures I now have the perfect setup for my home screen because of this.
Swipe up - brings up the app drawer
Swipe down - brings down the notifications
Home button press while on the homescreen - brings up voice search

Any idea how to change the colour of the battery icon in the status bar using the Notification Toggle app? I want to change it to ics blue.

+1 on this. What's worse is they'll give the option for no icon, but then it just leave a blank spot in the notification bar.............

That's a limitation of Android, so until Google offers a better way, that's how it has to be.

[Q] force nav bar position to right hand side in landscape?

Hi,
I'm looking for a mod or app that can force the nav bar to the right hand side of the screen when I go into landscape mode. Effectively I need it to stay where it is in portrait mode.
Not a big issue just annoying that so many pixels are wasted on the narrow dimension.
Thanks

Download the module Phab7 for Xposed Framework, it allows to move the nav bar !

While that works, it's not exactly ideal because it switches everything to the phone UI, including the notifications shade. Is there another way to force the nav bar to the right side without messing with anything else?

Bump. Anyone have any ideas?

i use the GMD auto hide soft key app, which shifts the nav bar always to the right hand side, when turning the tablet into landscape mode. you need to be rooted to use this. hope it helps, cheers

It seams odd though that there's no app just to do the one thing by itself

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.

hide navigation bar

Hi
Want to hide my navigation bar?
Any suggestions on how to go about it?

I would like to know this as well. AMOLED screens scare me.

I think "pie control" does not require root.

I'm using swipe navigation, that's the reason i want to hide it.
Save the extra screen space

https: // play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gmd.immersive (remove spaces)
I use this and highly recommend it for apps not requiring the keyboard much. Reason for this is that the keyboard will not appear while in full screen mode unless you swipe up, bring back the navigation keys, and then tap in the fillable field again. Otherwise it's the perfect app for long bouts of scrolling in apps like most reddit clients, twitter, google+, etc.

Power Toggle also has a quicksetting tile option for immersive mode im using nova launcher and i dont know if it's intentional or not but they have the option to make the navigation bar transparent. Give "Navbar app" a shot i think they have an option for a transparent bar as .

Where is the option in Nova launcher to make the nav transparent?
Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk

If you go under "Look and Feel" there should be an option that says "Hide notification", transparent, and dark. I tbought this was only fir the notification bar on the top but it instead made the navigation bar on the horrml

I pulled the build.prop file via adb but can't seem to push it back after editing cuz i can't adb from recovery.

Hey,
So, screen burn in is definitely a concern of mine as well. I am well versed in AMOLED burn in going all the way back to the Droid Incredible and Verizon Fascinate days. From what I remember, it largely has to do with the black areas of the screen (notification bar, nav bar) not having any pixels being exercised. So, in essence, the rest of the screens pixels age (or burn in) creating that effect. Static images also burn in (nav bar buttons... Also concerning). I noticed somebody posted an app to change the nav bar colors with each app that's opened. Would this not prevent burn in as well as those pixels are now getting equally exercised along with the rest of the screen (with the colors changing too... Their being no static image)?
Just curious.

I edited the build.prop but I get system UI force close when I restart. Any ideas on how to stop that from happening? I want to use lmt launcher. Can't stand the nav bar.

easiest way to hide navigation bar is with Tiles app, with the imersive mode toggle. Doesn't require root either. Just an adb command to provide a certain permission.

I used terminal and "settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=*" command and I now have a stable phone. I hope an option to permanently disable the navbar will come along like the qemu line in build.prop

You used this after doing that qemu line in build.prop right? So basically two steps, one to make the nav bar go away, with the build.prop method and then the second one in terminal to get rid of the Force Close pop ups after a reboot? Am I right?

No, just the terminal command. If I change the build.prop I get system Ui force close. Unfortunately haven't figured out how to stop the fc pop ups. I just put the navbar in permanent immersive mode.

Well that's great then. I am gonna try this out. If this terminal command makes it go away permanently and doesn't cause that FC issue then its better than the build.prop edit right? :laugh:

Hey mate how to revert to old settings? I ran that command and it hides the navigation bar, but it still comes up when I swipe from bottom, which is annoying as I use GMD and I don't need it to come up at all. So I guess I'll go with the build.prop method, but just wanna know how to revert to old settings in Terminal.

Fluid nav

Hi guys so I followed the guide on the s10 forums to get fluid nav to work. Like I did on my s10+ anyway i get this freezing where i Cant use it on reboot or when I hit the power button to turn the screen off and back on any ideas

I tried the method off the S10+ forums but for me anytime the screen would go off the bottom portion of the screen would just go dead until a reboot.
I ended up using vivid navigation gestures and just use the in app method to hide the navigation bar.

I turned off alternative keyboard detection in advanced settings and turned on Samsung touch home setting. Seemed to fix issues I had with no side effects so far.

The only issue I have ran into doing it this way is the fingerprint animation is a little bit lower than normal. But for that one small annoyance I will deal with it for navigation gestures that actually work.
Edit: when you do it this way make sure you have the navigation bar on in the normal settings on the phone and not gestures. If you have gestures on and you hide it with the app then a lot of things are out of place.

I had to use adb to grant Vivid permission to hide the nav bar. Let me know if you need any other screenshots.
Not sure why I still have Setedit still installed, I hid it in my Nova app drawer so it doesn't run in the background or anyting.
