Hey everyone, I've been searching and can't find any info about the problem I'm having. I'm using tnt lite 4.3.2 and have adw.launcher (free version) installed. The status bar at the top of the screen can be pushed up to hide and I want it to stay stationary. When it goes up and hides it starts locking up when I pull it back down to view it. I've gone into adw's settings and unchecked "hide the status bar" so it doesn't hide on its own but if I swipe up on the screen by accident it goes up and hides. I'm assuming it's supposed to hide like this but I would think there would be a way to lock it so its always visible. Or even better, a fix to prevent it from locking up when I unhindered it.
Check under gestures and change swipe up to none

Thanks for the reply cubanjinx, I might give it a try later but after the OP I tried launcher pro and absolutely love it! I upgraded to the paid version because of the cool Widgets too.
Thanks

You can use Nova launcher to hide status and nav bar. Go to Nova settings > look and feel > and uncheck Show Notification bar. This will auto hide nav bar and status bar.
Have fun!!!!!

First you have to root the device the you install "dynamic navigation bar" (attached) then go to settings and disable system navbar. The DNB is a much better nav bar then thestock one.
This just bricked my kindle. Any suggestion to restore?
TIA

Well the same thing happened to me. First off, don't factory reset! I don't know about you, but I don't have adb currently, but my computer is recognizing an unknown android device, which may mean I have driver issues. I ordered the fastboot cable which should be in tomorrow, and I can let you know if that helps me get adb. If it does I can save you 15 bucks and get you the cable somehow if you want.
Hi All,
It took me a while to figure out, but you can add an option to hide the grey nav bar on an unrooted HAM2 and make it reappear by swiping up. It is somewhat confusing because the nav bar setting is not available if you have your Emotion UI set to the Standard home screen style. You have to apply the "Simple" home screen style first, which is the one with the giant colored buttons for grandma to use.
After you apply the Simple home screen style, go back into settings, select More Settings and then scroll down to the bottom of the list. You will see a new option called "Navigation Bar" has been added. If you press this option you will see a toggle switch for "Hide Navigation Bar" along with some instructions on how to use it. Once you have toggled the switch to hide the navigation bar, you can revert back to the Standard Emotion UI and the setting will be retained.
After I hid the navigation bar I found some apps I had difficulty installing would start to work OK. For example, if you try to install NBA Jam without hiding the navigation bar, it will get hung on the initial splash screen. After I hid the navigation bar, NBA Jam would check for updates and then proceed to the game without any problem.
Hope this helps anyone having difficulty with the nav bar!

this looks great with xposed and gravity box so that my navbar is transparent and can be hidden on command!
thank you!

This is the Kitkat feature I missed the most. My main motivation to buy a HAM2 was to read novels in it, instead of carrying a smaller phone and a tablet. For that purpose, the screen is stunning, but that dammed gray navbar was always in the way. Not anymore!
Thank you so much for this tip. You made my day!
Wow, nice find!
Now I have a bit more room on this already huge display. Thanks! :good:

This option should be there regardless of what launcher u are using.. It's a standard feature in the settings.. No? I have a China version on 4.4.2.. No sure if there's a difference though..

It is not visible with standard home screen but it is in simple which not too many people switch to it.

A bit laggy compared to using one of the root options.

Thank you,.!.!
Only reason I wanted to rood was immersive mode, this is close enough.
I love this phone even more now - coming from a 32gb One plus one.
Damn! You had a oneplus one? I got an invite but I'm gonna have to pass on that

WOW!!! Thanks so much for sharing this great find. It works GREAT!!!!!
Thanks given. This was the only reason I was rooted. Along with greenify. Now with the ability to hide the navbar and the ability to disable background apps included in the stock ROM, I really don't have any need for root. I still might use links2sd to install more apps if I hit that 6gb limit. This phone is solid!
Making the navigation bar hidden is called "immersive mode". There are apps on the Play Store that supposedly let you toggle immersive mode. Please post your results if you try one.
I'm guessing those apps will let you switch to immersive mode independent of standard or simple mode.
I can't live without LMT Launcher. With Marshmallow, Xposed modules can disable the navigation bar/soft keys/on screen buttons so LMT Launcher can be activated from the bottom. xposed is not available in Nougat yet. Is there another way to disable them in Nougat? I do have root.
Goto Settings-> Display -> Home touch buttons -> Hide Home touch buttons
Here you will get a list of apps, turn off for apps you need or all apps.
This only hides them.

This is great for hiding the nav bar, but doesn't really work with lmt Launcher. When you swipe from the bottom up, lmt doesn't appear. Instead the nav bar unhides. There's gotta to be a way to disable the Navigation bar completely with root. Anyone have any ideas?
The best way to hide the nav bar without Xposed in nougat is via rro layer theme. If your ROM supports rro layer themes you can install the theme from LMT's OP.
Edit build.prop in system qemu.hw.mainkeys=’, set to 0 (zero) to enable the onscreen / virtual softkeys. Set it to 1 (one) to disable them. Make sure Lmt or alternate nav system in place before reboot.
Works for me anyway

Thanks, this works great! I tried this while on stock marshmallow for tmobile g5 and phone wouldn't boot. Phone booted in Nougat and navigation bar was completely disabled.

I'm using (and always used) the build.prop trick without problems with stock MM, probably you messed up in something else when trying to edit it?
Hi, has anyone tried a new application by XDA? What are your thoughts?
Google Play link - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xda.nobar
my navigation bar does not hide...
I'm trying it right now. And it's not too bad. Only complaint is you can't change the transparency so that small bar will always be there. But you can change the size and make it really small so it won't be that noticeable.
So far, it seems like a good alternative to All in One Gestures. Will update on battery life later.

Did it hide your navigation bar ?
It won't hide my navigation bar .
Works pretty well
It works pretty well for the most part, though on apps where they are black you can see a white line on the very bottom of the screen. Which is kinda annoying.

If you want hide the stock navigation bar, I find a workaround using immersive mode. You can enable it in nogaut too using an app called "SystemUI Tuner" and giving to it adb permission through a pc (so without root).
I don't like too much this gesture so i return to stock, but if you want this work.

Don't know why but it doesn't ask for root permission (needed in order to hide the navbar), so you need the adb commands, for the rest it works pretty well.

For hide the navbar you can switch the app proportion for the 18: 9 and set the permissions again. After this, turn off the gestures and turn on. If this not work, restart the phone. For me it works.

Can't find the scale option under lg g6 with 8.0.
There are some apps there but no navigation gestures.
I think with Android 7 I had the option. Now I can't find it any more. Can someone assist?
Or is it obsolete with Android 8 ?

I love this app.
My battery autonomy is superb and also have more space on the screen.
But the navigation bar doesn't hide automatically, I used SystemUI Tuner from the playstore to hide it.

Hello, when i'm trying to grant permission i only get :"Operation not allowed: java.lang.SecurityException: grantRuntimePermission: Neither user 2000 nor current process has android.permission.GRANT_RUNTIME_PERMISSIONS." what can i do pls ?
I have the porblem that if I open an app lets say, Instagram or Armorfly Browser, the white line at the bottom just dissapears. Then I was swiping up from the bottom to try and get it back or at least the nav bar, after a few tries, the nav bar and the white line for the gestures were showing and dissapearing all the time, it was like they were having a fight for who will stay at the bottom of my screen haha
Does anybody know a fix for that?
Thanks
