I am looking for a way to hide icons on the right side of the notch. Instead of 3 dots... The icon in question is the in vibration mode.
On other phones I could just hold the settings button on the notification shade to get the UI tweaker. Doesn't work here.
Any other way to get this besides downloading the app in store and ADB the thing

Android was the pioneer of the notification bar. The idea, very similar to the taskbar in windows, offers far more flexibility and utility. One factor common with Windows, though, is that it disappears during games and certain other apps. Now, in terms of notifications, this feature is not that useful because you still have to navigate out of the game to see your notification. There are several utilities to bypass this though: for me, BirdBar coupled with Notifier Pro works perfectly and brings the seamlessness of a multitasking beast. BUT, the notification bar is NOT available by default.
This problem is further highlighted by the fact that now you can place all sorts of shortcuts on the notification bar, the prime purpose of that being that you are able to switch apps and tweak your phone on the fly. Again, all that disappears when the notification bar disappears.
With Android 4.0, an interface element was introduced that stays on screen ALL the time, even during full screen games. That's right, the nav bar.
So here's my idea: take the notification bar, bring it downward and attach it to the nav bar. During a game, the notification bar can disappear but a shortcut to it can live in the nav bar (on the far right perhaps). ALternatively, the notification bar can slide upward with a swipe action starting from the bottom of the screen.
The 'hybird bar' thus created can expand dynamically whenever a notification is received.
Any takers?
Like have menu on one side and notifications on the other... I like it.
sent from my googletron
what about having the muiltitask bar also in the notifications pulldown that way we can have a menu button again.
God I miss the menu button lol
Great idea my friend tell one of the devs if they can help you out with that.

There are several apps (widgetsoid one of them) that can place shortcuts in the notification bar. Also, the placing of menu button is possible even now through mods.
Getting in touch with devs was the prime idea behind starting this thread. If possible, I would like to pitch this to renowned devs and Google Android team itself. Question is: How.
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

I'm collecting new ideas for future updates

Thanks, updated supported device list :fingers-crossed:. Do buttons look ok?
Hi there...
I just try your app and have few comments.
- Softkey could we biger, just like original. It is not necessarily to be smaller because - they can be hidden
- Vibrate on key press is missing thing for me
- After few turning on and off my phone reboot (Gnex, stock 4.2.2., I9250XXLJ1, JDW39)
I am not developer but I was always askin why someone don't make hiden navigation bar (buttons) and activate it just like we swipe our notification bar. Just like that and but very smooth. Al that PIE's and invisible areas was too laggy and don't enough responsive to me. You are very close to my idea and if this will work I think your app have potencial.
Good luck
Hello guys, i have my own implementation of this, I made it long time ago, but haven't released to public until today
Check it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41195717
Grate app bro. Confirm that work on GSM GNexus with stock 4.2.2 rom.

- 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.
Donator here: Could it be possible to be able to disable the glow and maybe to add another section where you can be able to change the nav bar icons from a respository of sorts? Thanks! Keep up the good work!

Try newest development version. I added theming funtionality.
hello, developer. Pro buyer here. Your app is very nice indeed and works great. I'm using it on my gnex with rooted stock rom. I just have the following observations:
1. It seems the app makes scrolling of the recent apps stuttery.
2. May I request for an option to use the stock 3-dot menu icon, instead of the 3-bar menu icon? The 3-dot icon blends better with the stock icons, in my opinion.
3. The menu icon randomly appears. (I have disabled it.)
Thanks!
I just switched to the Pixel 2 XL from Samsung and the pulldown menu is lacking a ton of settings. There isn't even the little speaker icon that switches from sound to vibrate to silent. Is that just the way stock Android is? Did Samsung add all those convenient menu features? Anyway to add more?
Pull the menu down twice, there is a little pencil icon at the bottom, between the date and the settings icon. You can add, remove, rearrange. If you want something that's not available you can usually get it with an app...if nothing else, you can create them with Tasker to do pretty much anything.
Thanks. Now to get used to this screen! (or not)
For the whole vibrate or silent thing... There's a volume rocker on the side of the phone...

I like the stock Pixel launcher, with the clean, lightweight, easy on the system specs.
But a couple key features are missing. No swipe down for the notification shade. No icon changing.
So I found the rootless Pixel launcher in the Magisk downloads, v 3.7, installed that, and it worked immediately, keeping everything else looking the same, widgets and all still there. But now I can swipe down anywhere on the screen to bring down the notifications. I can do icon packs. And several other cool features
I think these should be baked into the stock Pixel launcher by default.
Anyways, now my Recent action is gone. No way to quickly access my recent apps. I'm stumped on what to do ?
does it let you change icon size and change notification dots to numbers?

No. For that you need something like Nova
Actually I do have the old school 3 nav keys now. It seems Rootless Pixel launcher gives you this.
I had another app I installed called Custom Navigation Bar, because I wanted to put the back key on the right side of the home key. Which does work. But then I disabled this app to test the swipe up, and right after I disabled it, I see the three nav keys on the bottom.
So, it seems Rootless PixelLauncher gives you the 3 soft key layout.
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
