I know the pixel is a new phone but I'm just curious if there's a genius out there that knows how to disable it so we can use gestures. I hate the stock navigation.
I hate it too! I want the old style navbar back! The code was there to activate it if you wanted but this is Google forcing what they want on us!

It is weird, all the code and icons are still there. Most everything is the same as the Pixel 2 xl. Someone might be able to. The smali code is a little different but not much.
Hoping someone finds a command to disable it, plus I'd love to have more screen real estate.
I hear ya,,,I just dont get it,,why not leave the option there to use it? It would be one thing if they deleted the code and its not there,,,but it is LOL,,,give us the option. I cant stand this new navbar! And from what I read on all the other Android sites there are more that dont like it than do.

I got it ?, the "navigation gesture" app has a command that works. I'm currently using "Oneplus Gestures"

I'm running the same setup but also with Nacho Notch and it's so much better than stock. Oneplus Gestures so far seem to be a lot better than stock ones.

I found this for enabling the old navigation buttons and getting rid of the gestures.

I'm probably going to do this when I get a chance. While the new gesture style navigation isn't completely horrible, I can't say that I'm a big fan of it.

Same thing I'm staying with. It makes it easier to switch between my Pixel 3 XL and my iPhone XS Max. Not to mention I'm also getting the OnePlus 6t. So all my phones will have very similar navigation gestures.

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.

Hi All,
I have just got myself a fold 3.
I have a few questions i need help with please.
1/. With external screen can a hardened screen protector be put on and if so do i need to remove pre installed protector?
2/. I am thinking of buying this case https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0995WPCXJ/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A2SFKRF5TPZMT5&psc=1
Am i correct to say just the basic s pen will fit and not the pro?
3/. Not sure between the standard s pen and the pro.
Want to make sure it will fit in the case.
Thanks everyone

I don't think you can get rid of the locks creek wallpaper, but you can change it to just a solid black picture.
I use Google Voice, but I'm sure there's a notifications setting in the messages app.

1) not to my knowledge. The toggle is in the notification shade. You may want to check in settings for the Auto Rotate option and see from there.
2) Go into Accessibility. Or, go into settings and search Google Assistant.

Search "Google Assist," go down to "assistant settings" and then all the way down to "general ." The toggle is there, bro. Just have to be patient and read through it.

Look inside the good lock app. If you don't find it there, then use the nice lock app.
I know I am probably late to the party, but in developer option, there is an enabled freeform feature.
Then in the recent app drawer, tap the icon and select freeform...
This is a tip in case you didn't know. This is multitasking at a new level.
That's been around for a VERY LONG TIME.
But not very good on a phone because of the screen size and method of interaction. Its better on big screen devices with a mouse.

Try to picture the idea behind it. The objective here was to use Android as a replacement for a traditional desktop/laptop and thus follows that kind of pattern, and they were on the verge of replacing chromeos with it. Its very unfortunate that they didn't go through with it.

Well this is new to me.
Reviewers say you can't do it but you can.
Global rom
1. Download Launcher
2. Settings, Apps, App Info, 3 dots top right corner, Default App Settings, Launcher.
Enjoy.
On my (UK) Redmagic 8 Pro it is:
Settings Applications > App info > (three dots right corner) >Default app settings > Desktop
I also managed to do this earlier by first installing an alternative launcher and then going to:
Settings > Applications > App info > Nubia Launcher > Open by default > Clear defaults
After clearing the default, attempting to go "Home" then showed the option of setting the default launcher.
First post in the forum YAY, actually wanted to chime in here
I’m using lawn chair 2 (kinda got used to the folder covers and speed of it, trying to migrate to nova but im finding hard to keep margins and speediness from lawn chair on it)
Only caveat is that (At least with lawn chair and nova) you loose the switch in between apps gesture (slide from the bottom left or right) but if you try another one with it working it would be amazing to read about it. It kinda slows me down in my work flow.
Kind regards
This doesn't work on my z50 ultra. Under default app settings, there is no desktop or launcher option anyone know of any workaround?

Only thing that comes to mind is to mail zte directly, their customer service is not… that efficient… but still.
Okay, I think I've found a workaround. For anyone else with this issue, download Niagara launcher. It'll let you select your own launcher from within the app and nova will show up if you have it installed.

It is the first time I'm seeing something like this. Quite absurd not to allow setting a 3rd party launcher as default.
Xiaomi allows setting 3rd party launchers as default, but it disables gesture navigation in that case. Another absurd decision.
Glad that you figured out a way to solve this. So your device OEM has hidden the ability to change the default launcher. Niagara Launcher seems to unhide it for users. Good job.
