Question POCO F3 - autohiding navigation buttons stopped working - Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40

Hello,
On my POCO F3 all of a sudden autohiding navigation buttons stopped working. Previously apps would open full screen and the bar was autohiding and to show it I needed to swipe from the bottom up. Navigation bar is now fixed and there are no options in phone configuration that control autohide now. There is only choice between buttons and gestures. I did not do any upgrade of the system itself, unless some systems apps got upgraded automatically.
Perhaps you guys know internals what controls this behavior or are aware of any changes/bugs in MIUI. I have MIUI Global 12.5.3.
Also, POCO F3 owners, please see how it works for your phones.
Thank you!

Capacitive buttons, navigation bar and PIE control

Hi guys,
Ok, so I'm coming from an old Nexus 4 on which I was used to do everything with one hand (right).
I was used to Pie Control, and completely remove my software navigation bar (qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 in build.prop)
Now, I'd like to do quite the same thing with my OP3, but I'm struggling a bit.
As you know, with OOS, we can use either:
Capacitive Buttons
On-screen navigation bar
When I use Pie Controls (either LMT or GravityBox) and set the navigation to capacitive buttons, it's mostly OK, but there's always the unintentional touch, especially when holding the device in landscape mode.
When I set the navigation to on-screen buttons (but don't use them), "Back" and "Home" simple tap on Pie Control doesn't work at all (Longpress's and Recent simple tap work fine, though).
I tried fiddling with build.prop but didn't manage to disable both altogether.
Code:
# enable navigation bar
#ifdef VENDOR_EDIT
#[email protected] disable navigation bar
#qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
#else
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
#endif
Anyone knows how to disable both capacitive buttons AND standard software navigation bar ?
If it's possible to stay on OOS for the moment, that would be great
Thanks in advance.
Yes, something is strange in OOS in that respect.
I use GMD Gesture Control (like I do always on every device), but if I use the on-screen navbar instead of the capacitve buttons, "back" gesture doesn't work anymore. Home gesture works.
Perhaps someone could shed some light onto what the causes could be...
Anyone find a fix for this?

Miui 10, possible to make Navigation buttons swipe down to remove , swipe up etc?

I am enjoying my redmi note5 , with the latest Miui 10, but I would like to be able to set the navigation to be able to be switched on and off when I browse with a simple swipe up or similar to bring the navigation back on
Any way to do this ?
I do not want to switch to no navigation buttons and use just gestures.

How to hide soft navigation buttons (for real)?

Hello. I bought this fone a couple days ago and it's been a good experience, despite some different usage comming from a Z2P. EXCEPT I can't find a way to hide the soft keys for good. Yes, i have enabled the "Hide navigation bar" under display settings BUT they keep showing when the keyboard is enabled. I'm hating this. Even more when the color won't change and stay white no matter the theme I apply (I like dark interfaces). Also, I've enable the gestures and the keys are just useless. It was possible on the Z2P with the fingerprint gestures. No keys at all.
Is there a way to hide the soft keys FOR GOOD on the Zen 5Z???
Thank you!
This is just the way Asus has chosen to implement navigation gestures. Can't do anything other than complain to Asus and maybe they'll fix it in the Pie update.
You can hide them with adb. Check YouTube

I've been a button user for years too, but damn if these gestures aren't so damn convenient. You can enable it from Settings ( search for Gestures ). You gonna try it for days if not hours, the revert back to gestures xD

miui was good when they allow other launcher (non miui or poco) tu use full gesture navigation, how ever after updating A11 miui 12.5 It's gone...you only can use gesture nav on poco/miui launcher only & that's suck...
since i do really hate both miui & poco launcher..i had to use again button navigation...(i use nova launcher)
I'd found the full screen display options before, I guess Im only really concerned about Microsoft Remote Desktop but I can't make the buttons permanent, they have that "toaster" function
for me i choose gesture navigation over permanent button, coz the phone look great when in full screen mode, despite the launcher...
F3 look great if we can use gesture nav & hide those status bar (poco launcher can't do this, only external launcher apps).. but that's all just a dream,since there's now way for stock non rooted poco f3 can bypass gesture nav for external launcher (don't know if custom romm do that...since my F3 not rooted yet

How To Guide Remove Navbar for Custom Gestures on Android 12

Remove NavBar Gesture Pill (and more) for Pixel 6 Pro
Update: This only works if you are rooted now, since the January 2022 patch. Hi guys, I've seen several posts asking how to remove the Gesture Pill. It's easy if you're rooted, but it's also possible if you're not rooted. Here is a step by step...
forum.xda-developers.com
Hi all!
The above link is from the Pixel 6 Pro forum. In it is a non-root method of using Fabricated Overlays (new to Android 12) to hide/remove either the navigation pill bar (thus, retaining default gestures without taking up screen space for the bottom pill) or the three button navigation bar (what I did to enable custom gestures, such as FNG). I'd like to spread the word in case anybody here is interested in trying it out on their Android 12-based custom ROMs.
For reference, I'm on Arrow OS 12.0 and got it working well enough, though this method also hides the pills that custom gesture apps provide. I currently use FNG to have three bottom swiped gestures (back, home, recents) and a right side swipe gesture (brings up my Panels apps and widgets) while also using Bottom Quick Settings. All work perfectly!
Is it normal for my fabricated overlays to be reset everytime I reboot ?
Anyway to make them persistent?
Thanks !

From what I can tell, the January security patch for AOSP roms has closed being able to use Fabricated Overlays to affect the navigation bar.
Before that, it was normal for the overlays to remain after reboot. I guess it depends on what OS you're using.
