Hello everybody!
I've the Unofficial PixelExperience P GSI on my Mi A2 Lite, but there was only the normal navigation bar, which we already know from the official Android 8-Stock Rom. So I searched for a possibility to use the Pixel navigation.
I found an official XDA-article about this navigation feature for the OnePlus 6, so I tried it on my Mi A2 Lite and it works!!
The only thing to do is, that you have to enable "USB-Debugging" in the developer options. And make sure that you allow the ADB-connection on your phone. Than you must run this command in ADB on your computer:
adb shell settings put secure swipe_up_to_switch_apps_enabled 1
If you did this you can close ADB and remove your phone from the computer.
If you want more information about this, here's the official article: https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6-google-pixel-gestures-android-p/
It works perfectly for me, so I think it should also works for you. I don't know if it works also for other Roms (GSIs) or the Stock Rom, but maybe somebody can test it
I hope you like my little "guide"!
- and sorry for my bad englisch
good guide sir
but if you like navigation gestures you should really check out this app 'fluid navigation gestures' in play store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fb.fluid
i think its better then Pie navigation because you can hide navigation bar and have 100% fullscreen
Are you serious?... You can go to setting, gesture and turn the new navigation bar on....

No, because I haven't this setting
There are 2 Bugs with this solution.
1. After every restart you have to enable the bar again.
2. If the NavBar Background changes from black to white you won't see the 3 buttons again which is pretty annoying.

I confirm that this is a better solution. I'm using this. The gestures are similar to MIUI. No Root, no Bootloader unlocked, only one line of code to hide the navigation bar.

Hello!
So I just have a quick question about the latest update for the S8, where they removed black as an option for the Navbar color and enabled us to hide it (immersive mode).
Whenever you hide the navbar, how does the "swipe up" gesture work in reality? As in how "good" does it work? I remember (before the update) trying the immersive mode with Custom Navigation bar (app), and the swipe up gesture was bad, whenever I tried to get the navbar up, I was scrolling up in the app I was using as well..?

It works great. Much easier than previously. And here's a link on Reddit to get Black NavBar back, it works and is safe.

It's just easier than ADB, if you don't have the sdk downloaded or not around a PC. I used ADB to get rid of the battery icon in the status bar. The apk is just an overlay like all of these.

Yea alright, I just don't know the upload source, so ADB "feels" safer
Just installed it, works great, thank you indeed.
You can hide your navigation bar using the "Custom Navigation Bar" app. It works great, no root needed just Grant permission using adb. It'll definitely give your screen more real estate and prevent screen burn ins. Just swipe up and the navigation bar reappears with a transparent background.

Hiding the status bar doesn't work well with device, it throw off the touch sensor, for example if you were to try and click on a link you couldn't youd have to touch just below the link to click the link
Im going to buy the pro as im very satisfied on it. The youtube is displaying correctly vs the layout was offering to the other thread.

i dont like this. try youtube, remove the navbar and full screen on landscape, the aspect ratio is very odd
FYI this isn't an OLED screen, so burn-in isn't a reason to do this. LCD doesn't have that issue.
Great info was looking for something like this.
With custom nav bar the keyboard pops up like it is suppose to.
with the other app the keyboard had problems displaying, bought the pro version.

You can use an app over on the play store known as "SystemUI Tuner" and you can toggle immersive mode fully, nav bar only (which is what you're looking for), and status bar only. You can do that after giving permissions via ADB or root access grant, if possible.
Forgot to add a screenshot of the app, you could plausibly use it at your will. I don't know if it will work since i don't have oreo myself but i believe it has support for it.

nova launcher has an option hide the nav bar, that's if you use nova of course.
I had a similar problem and nova fixed it.

Just tested it right now. The nav bar does pop out when you're using the keyboard and when you have the notification panel dropped down.
Did someone found a way to hide the navbar while the keyboard or notification panel is present? Well annoying this is!
Hello. I was wondering if there is a way to hide three button navigation bar on my 8t to use a third party gesture app.
I have root and i did try Magisk Hide Props config method by changing qemu.hw.mainkeys from 0 to 1, but nothing changed. Even after reboot the value stayed at 1, but still have the nav bar..
As far as I know, they changed something in android 11 which makes that impossible.
I tried the same with fluid n.g but it did not work
There a way to do it with adb. Haven't tested on 11 yet

yeah they removed that ability in Android 11

Yes even the qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 mod on the build.prop doesn't work on OnePlus 8T, I have no idea why. I used MagiskHide Props module.

Theoretically root (above method) should work, it works on Pixel phones, but currently still not working on OnePlus 8T.
Don't see the problem why they removed that feature. I would gladly use the gestures on Oneplus, but the problem is that it's blocking some features on different apps where I have to press something down in the corners. I think it's because of the google assistant feature.
Why not use the stock gestures?

This doesn't mean "removing" the navbar, what you shown is changing the navigation more from navbar to navigation gestures. What people are talking here is to remove the navbar while in navbar mode, so that they can use third party navigation gestures app.
If you ask why, they (and myself too) doesn't like OnePlus' navigation gestures for certain reasons. Personally, I much prefer the old OnePlus 6 style which is swipe up from bottom left/right for "back" action.

Aka android 9 version. Android 9 also had the two button gesture option. Android 10 introduced this version of it and has been further optimized in Android 11.
Of course this is all stock android versions. Some OEM's modified it like samsung for example. Oneplus isn't responsible for this style as its stock android gesture nav. Maybe in the future oneplus will make there own but there goal is to make OOS as close to aosp as possible while still adding some built-in customization.

Yeah I don't blame OnePlus for this, and it is Google that removed android's ADB overscan feature to hide navigation bar as well. I just hoped that the root method works in OnePlus (the build.prop edit) because it works well on Pixel phones.
I am using Oneplus's gestures + Fullscreen/Immersive Gestures Magisk module, this gives me almost truly fullscreen experience. I hated the arrow key on the bottom left of the keyboard. So this solves the problem for me. Just thought I'd pitch in.

Even though u remove the bottom bar, some apps still consider the empty space there. Check keyboard for example. There is some space and a useless hide arrow on bottom left. I believe OP is looking for a solution to remove that as well(which older versions used to support using overscan). I was looking for a solution to this as well.

You still don't understand, we don't only want to hide that bar, we also want to totally disable the stock gesture so that we can REPLACE with other third party gesture app. On Android 11 the method is to use the 3-button navigation bar AND disable it, so that we can use another third party gesture like Fluid Navigation without the stock one interfering.
If you still don't understand please do not insist you do.
The only person who doesn't understand is you.

In the app settings for Vivid Navigation Gestures, it has the option to hide the navigation bar. It says I can do it through ADB without root. Does anyone know how to do this or can give me steps to do this without root? Thanks!
so i entered the command (ive tried this with Fluid navigations also) that it gives to hide the navigation bar and it does not hide the buttons or the navigation bar... Is there a way to hide them and still use a 3rd party launcher with either Fluid or Vivid navigation apps? Thanks

Does not work on miui there is only one way I found without root that would work. I'll post it later. Much easier with root and no reason not to root
Ok. How would I do it if I did root? I'm just kinda worried I might mess up the phone.... If I only have a Mac computer can I still root? Thank you.

i know nothing about MAC you'll have to google.
use the app setedit you can download in the play store
use adb to get the proper permissions, if you check the app description in the play store it says the command you need to enter
select global table on the right side and find
force_fsg_nav_bar 1
i'm not sure if the standard value is 0 or 1 cause I already have mine changed. so if its 1 change it to 0. if its 0 change to 1.
you will have to do this everytime you reboot though
much easier and better to root, install magisk and hide with a module. read my tips/tricks thread on what you need to do
Thanks, the setedit app worked great. When I restart the phone, do i just have to go back in to change the value? That would be all I need to do to have it hiding the buttons? Thanks again!

Yes. There is a way to buy the app and it will auto do it when you reboot too. You'll have to try to figure it out
You can hide navbar without root using adb by changing into miui gestures overlay. It works until you reboot your decide, then you have to repeat.
Here's the command:
adb shell cmd overlay enable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.gestural

Hey all:
Vivid Gestures keeps losing accessibility settings, and I need to keep reenabling it.
Does anyone else have this problem and (ideally) some kind of solution.
Thanks
Ok...
Started using Full Screen Gestures, and that seems to work better
You cant use third party launchers then, correct?
Full Screen Gestures is an app, an alternative to Vivid.
It seems to play nicer with the Fold 2.
