Hello all, so I have my Razri running exactly how I want it and am very happy with the phone.
Only one thing missing! Does anyone know of an app or a way to integrate a brightness slider into the slide down notification window? like in cyanogenmod?
Install the latest XPosed Framework and use a module called "Gravity". With that module you should be able to enable an invisible brightnessslider. You can use it by simply sliding your finger across the statusbar

Yea i've used that, thanks for the reply. I was really wondering if a proper slider could be used though. I suppose this will fill the gap for now though.
I want too.
I want that kind of control in my notification bar too.
I know an app is Easy Controller-Control Center ,,hope it serves you

greetings fellow XDA members.
need some professional help regarding the tabs' systemui.
i personally hate the system bar at the bottom, it takes up space which isnt really needed.
most of us would definitely accidentally pressed the buttons there while playing some games.
so what i usually do is to hide the system bar via honeybar.
problem is, no back home nor menu buttons. so i used an overlay. worked pretty well and soon enough i graduated to using GMD gesture control[awesome app]
now i have no system bar + freestyle gesture controls tailored to my own style.
the new problem is that since hiding the system bar simply kills systemui, i am unable to receive any notifications except toasts from su etc and using notification apps just doesnt work seamlessly like the systemui.
is there anyway to hide/kill system bar without killing the notification?
or better, is it at all possible to have a regular non tab status bar [aka top statusbar + pulldown notification] for our tab?
i apologize for being long winded, just trying to be detailed.
any help is appreciated. googling it gave diff answers not relating to tabs so im at a lost.
Only workable way I found was to
decompile framework-res.apk, track down dimens.xml and edit "status_bar_height" and "navigation_bar_height" = 0, depending on what dpi you use, I use 213 and that shows a combined bottom bar.
Its important to mention that since the combinedbar thinks its still there a transparent area still occupy the space when ex. in any dialogs that uses dimming you´ll see a area without dim, so esthetically all 3 backgroundDimAmount´s should be also set to 0 in /values/styles.xml.
Still any apps you open, will open in fullscreen and occupy entire screen..
There is a challenge if you dissable GMD, making it very difficult to return or manouver, unless I find a way to add back or home to the powermenu in CM9, which I haven´t yet..
This stops polluting catlog with systemui crashes every darn minute, wich bordered me from the beginning..
If you have ideas I am all ears
cheers!
thanks for the reply.
im a newbie when it comes to edting xml files, heck im not even sure how to decomompile the framework-res.apk but i'll tinker around for a lil bit and see what comes out of edting the files.
if its similar to editing xml files from within an apk, then i guess im safe since ive tinkered with an xml file that granted apps permission to save data to ext sd. thats a start i guess.
youve basically given me something to work with.
will get back here if i have any further queries or run into any problems with your stated workaround.

Hi, I'm not a tech geek, but interested in tweaking my tab, but if you please share your updated framework-res.apk so i can just replace it with mine :fingers-crossed:

My framework is way to heavy slimmed for your likings, but I could rather make a specific one for your current os.
PS. there is some preparations:
1. you will need to setup GMD and assign home,back,show notifications and so on..(activate GMD notification icon (optional))
2. just in case, make important shortcuts on home to apps drawer, open notification, so on if GMD stops working
3. make a restore CMW package of current framework-res and SystemUI, you might change your mind
I have not mentioned this, but sometimes GMD will be unresponsive when waking up the device (worst case 20-30sec), therefore it is wise to have some sort of backup shortcuts of some kind if you can´t wait for it to restart..
(future focus : adding home or back to the powermenu if GMD would be switched off.)
If you are rooted and running the lastest CM10 (from Aorth) or CM10.1 rom, you can use the expanded desktop option:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1u2c_s1QaI
Not sure about getting notifications, will have to try that out later...
Since you're using GMD gesture control, why not set it to disable the notification bar on some apps, but leave it open for others? You could, for example, run "fullscreen" in everything but your home screen if you wished, and just go there periodically for notifications. I also found that if you make a custom gesture to show notifications, it will both reactivate the notification bar and then pop the notifications out. You can use that gesture and then re-hide the bar manually.

As you say, he dosen´t show if notifications work, I will asume this still kills systemui in the background...

I experienced instability, it also consumes more battery when systemui is killed like this, and my logs got polluted with crash reports more or less every minute, therefore I looked for a solution to preserve both..
Hi all,
Introudcing my request for someone to implement a no-nav bar mod, either via Xposed or through any other way.
In order to maximise screen estate, I would use pie-related apps in order to emulate the nav bar buttons.
Thanks a lot.

There are many many ways out there, you can find them by doing a simple search
But persionally I prefer GMD Auto Hide Soft Keys ★ root for this matter,
or you can try this app (might need xposed) to do the job:
[APP][4.0+]Ultimate Dynamic Navbar
good luck

I agree, and I am using Xposed with GMD Gesture Control to replace it. For whatever it's worth, when I used auto hide soft keys, the green phone button on the dialer disappeared. Switched to Xposed method and haven't looked back.
Expanded desktop mode via gravity box
Just add this line "qemu.hw.mainkeys=1" without the quotes in system/build.prop using a text editor.Reboot your phone and voila...no navbar.Before removing the navbar install LMT launcher or any other alternative.And for the dial button problem in phone app just install APP SETTINGS xposed module and set the Contacts dpi to 305 and everything will be perfect.
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.

Nice! But how much different is that from this: https://www.xda-developers.com/change-galaxy-s8-navigation-bar-color/amp/ ?
I'd rather use ADB than download an apk from an unknown source

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.
Is it possible to ensure that the StatusBar can hide automatically and then be recalled with a swype from top to bottom? For example, I installed the launcher Agama (very nice) and on the launcher this function is active... I find the status bar rather useless, and especially on some apps, like Google Maps, is very annoying.
@Malaysk, can you enable this function in your next rom?
How did you get on finding a solution.
This solution worked for me on my PX5

sorry, I did not understand, you have applied this change via xposed and not via terminal? because I still have a small problem, the status bar does not disappear when I have the screen divided in two ... and it is rather annoying
Someone can help me? I need to autohide the status bar when the display is divided in 2

Longtime xda user but have been out of the modding scene for many many years now, so forgive me if my question is stupid. Just got the P7P and put magisk etc on it. I don't like gesture navigation, and I am surprised that google doesn't allow nav bar button customization, which is something that has existed on various android implementations for as long as android has been around. Is there a magisk module that can do this on the latest 12/22 firmware? All google search results return with very old posts, and at this time I don't know how to recover from a bootloop if I do take a chance on flashing something.
Something that I had personally suggest is the Navigation Bar (9.0 +) module for Magisk, you can find it on Github.
Here's a link: Navigation Bar (9.0+)
There are many more methods but you can mention me anytime if this doesn't works.

Check out AOSP mod. It allows configuration for the nav buttons. It is a good replacement for Gravitybox.
After years of 3 button nav, I switched to gestures. It took a few days to get used to it. Now it is built into my flabby muscle memory.

Using Gestures, love it. Was a hardcore Navbar user.
Don't seem to have any issue with gestures and side panels.
Any specific app you are referring to?
I am using viber, skytube, k-9 mail, nextcloud, Mixplorer. Just to mention a few where I constantly use side panels and weird stuff happens when trying to open it due to the functional overlap

Hey there mate. How are you supposed to use this module ? Wasn't able to find any guide or documentation for it. Do I need to write something in Termux ?

It's a magisk module, installed like any other magisk module.

Thought this module would allow me to customize the navigation bar. Like change the navigation bar icons to look like Samsung or Xperia or Nexus. Was i wrong ? Is there a more suitable module for this ?
