Any navbar apps that add menu? Returning Android newbie

I had an iPhone for a few years and the pixel brought me back. The progress android has made has been phenomenal but I see a few things missing that used to be here before. Honestly I think I'm overlooking it but who knows.
FYI I have an unlocked bootloader and am running magisk running stock rom and kernel.
1. I used to love my Note 1's navbar with the search and menu button in the navbar. I remember xposed being able to do it but the modules haven't been updated and just cause a bootloop on the pixel. The customnavbar by paphonb doesn't allow you to have the menu button on the bar. Is there a way to make this work with oreo?
2. What happened to the text notifications? I replaced Google's main text app with Textra but I recall there being custom notifications and ringers all being in the contacts app.
3. What happened to changing the apps notification sound? Back then it was really easy to set the sound of the apps but I hardly see that feature.
4. Can you change the lockscreen clock font? I changed my system font and the clock has a question mark where the colon used to be. I know I could find another font but I really like this one.
5. How do you get in and out of the phone quickly? I find myself double tapping on the display and most of the time it works. Is there a better way?
Note: I saw some of these tweaks were on substratum but I couldn't get it to work for me. I tried to use substratum but the themes won't take because I'm on stock or because I don't know what I'm doing. I would like a clean lockscreen or one where I could swipe to the left or right and start recording. I forget the name but there used to be an app that customized the lockscreen.
If anyone could help me figure out Oreo I would greatly appreciate it!

Thank you so much for your help!
The font fix is exactly what I needed. I hated that square or question mark for the colon!
The custom nav bar app is the one I was talking about by php. I don't see a way to add the menu button to the nav bar on that app but I'll look and confirm.
I still use my iPhone silicone cases for this phone so the fingerprint won't work. That's disappointing I thought there might be a quicker way.
Thanks though!

It does but it doesn't let you add the menu to the navbar. And it also removes the battery percentage from the status bar for me. I wish it worked because that would be perfect for me with the navbar and customizable sounds [emoji21]

Either get a new case or cut a hole for the fingerprint reader. Problem solved ?

When you have cases like these cutting them is NOT an option

That's fair, but they aren't meant for the pixel phones. Sell them and get a new one with a proper cut out for the fingerprint reader.

If you are stock flash this in TWRP and enable systemui tuner to get menu on navbar without apps.

So I installed it but I'm not sure what to do next. System tuner was already activated but I don't see any other options. Do you have the original thread this was posted in? I don't want you to spoon feed it to me but I'm lost after the flash

I'll let the Dev weigh in on that. It's his mod and wouldn't want to give any misinformation with it's installation after the February update :good:

So this adds the button that looks like the menu but it doesn't function like the menu at all. It disappears and I think it has to do with the 66 being set as the code. I don't think that's the right code for the menu button to actually work. I took a screenshot.
Either way I'm giving up for now

Yes me too facing this issue and also icon label just showing up ( not fully) just above the navigation bar when I turn on Navigation dock.

Easy fix to solve this issue;
Go to display settings
Click screen resolution
Click OFF smart resolution
In CUSTOM-change resolution to 2k (highest) and let it refresh (the key is to change the resolution to native state once)
The issue is fixed
You can go back to display settings and enable smart resolution without any issues

U can use a new navigation bar developed by XDA . It's very fluid and iPhone like navigation.

Oneplus 6/6T Notch killer [ROOT] [PUBG MOBILE fullscreen fix]

Many people(including me) have an issue with the notch not being able to display 5 status bar icons (e.g: Bluetooth, Wifi, Dual Sim Mobile Signals, Battery percentage). The magisk module kills the notch completely.
The screen will function like a Oneplus 7 Pro( Notchless ) with a camera as a overlay on the screen.
This will also solve the full screen issue on certain apps like PUBG MOBILE. All apps will work in full screen mode as default. No need to toggle it in Settings.
Module(No longer works) :
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aZ9TdhVtQyuGe5hUlzNVUfbssR9OP1yw/view?usp=drivesdk
[USE G-VISUAL MOD] available on Magisk Download section. Notch Killer is integrated in that module.
After flashing the module and rebooting the phone, here how you'll need to enable it:
You'll need to go to
Developer option
> Simulate a display with a cutout
> choose Notch Killer
Done!! You can go back to default display by simply choosing the "None" option instead of "Notch Killer".
You can watch this video and follow the instructions:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_dZZZwJO1c0

No notch killer option available after flashing the module.

You can manage notification settings per app. That's not new to pie though, Oreo was the same.

Removing entry from settings menu [Q]

Hi all,
I am using Android 10 GSI as a daily driver and i menaged to fix almost all bugs that were bothering me, except one...
Please check the screenshot, and you will see this ROM has a weird, out of place setting for "phh Treble Settings", and it is not correct size, icon, or anything.
Can i somehow remove it alltogather, or just move it all the way to the bottom? Its mocking me everytime i open settings and it's driving me nuts
I am ofc rooted, open to any suggestions. Thanks!

When you click on that icon ,you can turn on some ambient display functions ,and you can use some fixes ,if you have some problems with apps ,it might get fixed in the next build,

They enable pocket ambient display mode and proximity wake (that option works when you wave your hand close to the proximity sensor ,while your phone is on a flat surface.
The other tweaks are when you have problems with apps in full screen mode and other stuff ,but mostly i use the two options for ambient display
