Greetings!
I've been searching for a way to truly disable the NavBar on Samsung Oreo, I don't want to just hide the NavBar, I want to truly disable it but I haven't found a way to do this on Oreo yet.
Can anyone help me find a way to achieve this???
Best regards!
There is a mod on magisk that worked for me

It's called "hide navigation bar", you can find it in the download section of the app.
Without root
Is there a way to do it without a root? Like this used to work https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/getting-rid-galaxy-s8-navigation-bar-t3659742
EDIT
I think I have found a solution. Please check my later comment on this thread "https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/getting-rid-galaxy-s8-navigation-bar-t3659742/post76057934#post76057934"
yeah ive been struggling with my nav bar as well. before used to be so simple to remove it. login to the forum just to find threads like this and see if someone came up with a solution without root

Hey thx, it worked. This will do for now.
I do have space on the keyboard just like you do. Hopefully someone comes along who can fix it.

I always ended up spacing out space under the keyboard in the other older method anyway so didn't really notice. I find it's more natural to type a bit higher up.
If it's helped please do check out my thread I made on the method and thumbs it up for others
Hey everyone, I actually found a way to remove status bar completely and not have the space under the keyboard. It requires ADB so you'll need a computer with ADB drivers and us debugging enabled on your device. Depending on your situation (what kind of navigation you want to use; OnePlus gestures, Xhome bar etc) this might not work. I currently use OnePlus gestures. There's a setting you enable to remove the navigation bar but you need to give the app ADB access. You'll as well need an app to enable immersion (I use systemui tuner) The result is no navigation bar. This is the only thing I've got working well for me and OnePlus gesture app can be customized a lot.
I hope this helped, and if anyone needs clarification I'll give it.

I was wondering if it was possible to put the navbar on the bottom while in landscape mode so my keyboard wont get cut off, I know there is a program to put this on the bottom but it hides it too, but I want it to show. Is this possible at all, I don't know how I google this as I get no "results" on what I am looking for.

Doesn't do anything at all, even with reboot. (Have Xposed installed.)

Very strange. Worked as described on my Thor running Nexus 2.0.5. Wonder if you have something else installed that's messing with your navbar.
I have stock Amazon,not HDX Nexus.

Navbar placement is tightly baked into Fire OS. Amazon probably stripped the phone and phablet UIs. If Phab7 (or similar tool) doesn't do it you may be stuck.
Got to go through decompile method, please help to comment below how to disable it.
As you all guy know it's so annoying after Marshmallow update after you set pin number, your device require you to swipe screen to unlock. Most of the people want to press power button and str8 enter pin. How to fix it? Thanks

To be fair, A solution to your issue was presented. Now, as far as I know the only time I've seen that feature being able to be bypassed was with an AOSP rom.

Don't disturb the thread if it's not a solution.
If you knew Aosp you might as well know which fucntion it's located at which also mean it can be changed by decompile and mod the apk/jar.
At least point out which app/apk is responsible for that in which smali

Hi anyone-who-can-possibly-help,
I have been wondering if it would be possible to make the background panel of notifications on the lock screen transparent/invisible.
I am using Lock Clean for Substratum and have tried Transparent Theme but this applies globally and I don't the theme applied to the notification panel or heads up notifications.
I understand there is probably going to be a limitation of Substratum but if anyone can think of any other way of implementing this I would be ever grateful however I have a feeling this is going to be something that was only going to be possible with something akin to Xposed to which there is no alternative to (with the exception of maybe Magisk) on 7.x.x+ at this time.
Thank you in advance!

Try the good old fashion way and modify your own xmls instead of using things like Substratum, Xposed etc.

So I'm presuming from that that what I'm trying to achieve is possible? Is there anywhere you can point me in the direction of to start my research?
I'm more than happy to figure it out myself and I'm not asking for a handout. A nudge in the right direction would be appreciated however.

I'd start by looking at your SystemUI colors.xml first and/or googling guides for your phone to see if it's been done before.
Hm... I am also interested in this, let me know if find anything. I also looked into possibly creating my own substratum theme to make this happen as well (the basics as to how to get it done)
Has anyone been able to figure out a way to customize the notification bar? I'm looking to get rid of the battery bar since I'm using AccuBattery & would prefer to use its battery indicator.
Would also be nice to get the network speeds on the bar. As well as having a seconds indicator on the clock.
try gravitybox. some settings might not work, but most do. If that doesn't have exactly what you're looking for, try the flat style bar indicators module, that one worked for me as well.

Thanks for the reply! Few follow-up questions: GravityBox is an Xposed module/app, right? And to get the Xposed framework installed, I'd need root? Lastly, how did you root your ROG?

Yes, gravitybox is an xposed module, and yes you'd need root. I kinda followed that guide but I can simplify it I think. after you've unlock the bootloader:
1. install magisk app
2. tap install
3. Select normal install
4. reboot when prompted
5. check you have root with root checker
6. install xposed app
thats what worked for me when upgrading to magisk 18. When I first installed magisk (17.3), I had to get boot.img from my firmware version, place it on the phone, and when selecting install, I had to choose patch boot image and browse to the .img.
Have you come across any issue with xposed yet? Right now that's the most compelling reason to root my phone.

nope, none so far. Doesn't take long and is pretty easy. I'd say its worth it. Some modules don't work 100% but I'm sure you already knew that.

I've tested gavitybox O and snapfreedom both work to some degree depending on which setting you use, as some will just completely make your phone non functional. but then other settings work fine.
youtube adaway also works but causes random youtube fc's every so often.
Some other modules Ive tested are flat style toolbar which did nothing, xstana which works (but I didn't think I needed it personally), and that one thats supposed to let you downgrade apps whose name I'm forgetting right now. Yea that one did nothing either.
I also have viperFX and xHifi in magisk.
To be fair, I think, most of the things we would use these modules for are already features built into the phone. overclocking is so niche. I know since I've been doing it for 23+ years. Thats a feature built right in. on a phone. night mode used to be one, as well as mapping gestures, battery management, and so many other things. IMO, way to go Asus! (although next time don't make it such a dust magnet! I already have some tiny specks under my camera glass somehow?)
Finally rooted. Though Gravity Box O didn't work, Flat Style Bar Indicators was perfect for what I need. Thanks for the suggestion.
any idea? The stock nv bar is definitely too high for me. Has anyone successfully changed it without using xposed modules?

@Moriatier, you're back! After starting the world-famous V30 Frankenstein thread you just sort of disappeared!
I wrote up the instructions (later in the thread) but you were the one who really started the discussion.
You can use Substratum and even though it's made for Samsung devices, you can use the samsung system mods theme to change the nav bar height. I use it to set mine to zero so I can use gestures instead. But they have other height options in it. Probably best not to mess with any of the other parts in there though since it IS for Samsung devices. Although I got "more animation scales" in settings working too.

Assuming you know how to use Substratum, just install this and set the nav height to the one you want and then reboot

I believe you can use substratum without root in Oreo. It's been a while but I think I was using it before rooting. It uses a systemless method. Substratum has a fail safe in it where If it detects a problem like system ui keeps force closing so many times, it will disable the overlays and set it back to normal. So there isn't too much of a risk. I got myself in some situations where I couldn't do anything and just got a bunch of force closes but Substratum took care of it. Never had an issue with the Navbar overlay though. If you ever want the navbar back, you just go into Substratum and disable the overlay and reboot.
I'm rooted but the reason I didn't use OnePlus Gestures built in nav bar hide is because it had some minor annoyances. Like when I would unlock my device, the navbar would show for a split second then disappear. So I just felt, for me, it was better to use substratum and get rid of it all together. Although, with this method, you can actually toggle it off and on real quick.
