I'm developing app that allows to hide soft keys without modifying the system and without reboot. In only hides soft keys and leaves notification bar intact. After hiding soft keys I replace them similar auto hiding bar with Back, Home, Recent Apps and Menu buttons.
It does NOT modify system files. If something unplanned happens, just reboot your device and it will restore your stock navigation bar.
Unique Features:
* Hide soft keys on any rooted device (Phone UI only).
* Auto hiding navigation bar replacement - swipe trigger upwards to show it.
Differences to other status bar hiding apps:
* Does not remove notification bar
* Does not modify system
* No need to reboot
* Stock Notification panel and settings panels are fully working
* Stock recent apps list is fully working
* No problems with receiving phone calls
Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gmd.hidesoftkeys
I'm collecting new ideas for future updates
0.93:
- Added Google Now button when Home is hovered. Added animation.
- Added option to hide QuickNav bar when empty space on bar is pressed.
- Added option to keep/hide QuickNav bar when pressed anywhere else on scren.
- Added option to delay bar hide after pressing soft button. Pressing new button resets delay.
Will this work on my nexus using 160 dpi for tablet mode??

Doesn't work on my XP. I get a double navigation bar. And what's the difference between this and pie controls or lmt launcher. They both work better then this app.

1) CM is not supported yet. Stock roms and PA are supported.
2) App allows to hide navigation bar on stock rom without loosing notification bar and without modding the system.
3) Quick NavBar from this app or Pie is matter of taste. I prefer bar as it allows to execute multiple Back's, or click multiple buttons, but even if you like Pie you can use app to hide soft keys and disable Quick NavBar.

Only Phone UI is supported at the moment, but N7 with just notification bar usable and soft keys hidden looks cool. I have N7 myself.
0.94:
- Theming. Select any PNG for buttons, for example: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1413582
- Shortcut to show Quick NavBar. If you like Quick NavBar, now you can disable trigger and use GMD Gesture Control to show it.
- Short Google Now button delay.
- Button spacing slider
- Trigger color picker and transparency slider.
- Support for devices without soft buttons - Galaxy Note's and similar phones.
- Changed auto hide delay slider to milliseconds.
I bought the PRO version trough the app with one google sync account, but when i use two google accounts to sync in my nexus 7 the app lock PRO features and only reconize my second google account. I bought the pro version with the first account and i can't switch to this account when i click to unlock PRO version. How can i fix this without delete one of my accounts?
0.95:
- Trigger now auto hides (become transparent) in full screen apps like YouTube, video and games. You can still show Quick NavBar with swipe in full screen.
- Added built in themes: NEXUS, NEXUS2, GALAXY, XPERIA, RAZR, HONEYCOMB
- Custom... theme - user can select custom images for buttons.

I think you need to setup same google play account on your second user. I just use standard Google Play api .
Works great on my 1st Gen N7 with 4.3, but a number of apps (including Chrome) don't display app thumbnails properly in the stock app switcher while this is enabled. They appear as a black box with a few UI elements visible. Disabling AutoHide immediately corrects it. Works lovely otherwise.
Hiya!
Is possible to make Nougat double-tap on recents to go back to previous app feature in Touchwiz with Note7?
edit: I found this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.orthur.appswitcher2 and it works as expected.
edit 2: Double tap to open camera is not working uf this app is installed. ?
Is there any hold back to kill and tap on clock/date app for oreo or s9?
push
If you are rooted yes both of these are supported via xposed in gravitybox
Devs, I see most of the ROMs now has the gesture navigation and it is easier at the same time it gives more screen space than using the navigation bar. But since our Z2 has the U-Touch button in the bottom-centre it is difficult to perform the recents gesture by swiping from the centre. So can you guys customize the gesture-navigation to:
-left side gesture to Home
-right side to Recents
-right side long hold to Previous app
-and disable the middle gesture
For these at present I use Swipe Navigation app but sometimes it doesn't work and most time it is laggy.

Most ROMs have fling and smart nav bar which have such customizations.. Have you checked that.. U can also try XDA nav gestures app from play store..

Yes, but I'm saying about this navigation gestures (pfa). Using a navigation bar, smart bar or even fling will reduce the screen space a lot, since our Z2 is only 5". That's why the stock ZUI has only one button that does almost all the navigation functions. Actually I was saying that all other Navigation options except the navigation gestures have a lot of customizations. Regarding the XDA app it is not reliable, that's why I use Swipe Navigation app.
I'm at my wits end.
No idea what I've done. My status/notification bar automatically hides itself. Usually it's hidden on home screen only which is how I like it. Now, it hides everywhere and I have fullscreen gestures on so I swipe to go back, recents etc.
Android version 10
One UI version 2.1
Running Nova Launcher.
Nova settings: Look and Feel>Show notification bar On, Look and feel>transparent notification bar Off, transparent navigation bar On
Android settings:display>fullscreen apps>everything is set to auto, display>easy mode off,
Notifications>status bar>show notifications > 3 most recent. Each option behaves the same
Notifications>do not disturb Off
I think that's all the relevant settings.
How I'm used to it: status bar hides on home screen, open to app drawer or any app and it's displayed whilst in said app.
Cheers.
Just uninstalled Nova. Behaviour is still the same.
Have restored from backup now
