What is the best alternative to the on-screen buttons out there today? Pie Control sounds okay but not as quick and intuitive as I'd like. Is there anything else that's similar to what the Palm Pre used to do? Example...swipe up from bottom to go home, swipe up and down or up and right for recent apps, and some type of swipe left or up and left to activate Back.
I use Nova Prime and it has gesture features built it. You can install the free version to check out what options are in there.
How about something outside of a specific launcher? Standalone would be preferred so it could work with anything. Is there anything that offers bottom swipes for home/recents and a side swipe for Back?
Swipe home button is the closest I have found
Check out lmt launcher. Its not a launcher in the traditional sense. Its system wide and has pie and gesture control.

This disabled the hardware buttons on the N4: add `qemu.hw.mainkeys=1` in system/build.prop/. Guess it will also work on the N5. Use LMT Launcher http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330150 or Pie Control on Google Play for navigation, link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jun.ace.piecontrol.
Thanks, LMT Launcher with its invisible swipe areas looks to be exactly what I was looking for, I'd rather activate this stuff with an edge swipe instead of using the PIE controls. Gestures might work as well on a larger screen. Can anyone speak to how well the invisible swipe areas work, and if this app works on 10" tablets like the Nexus 10?
Reading around it seems like LMT might not work on Nexus 10. Any options that do? Primarily interested in swiping up from the bottom of the screen to trigger home/recents similar to Palm Pre, as opposed to PIE controls.
To see the list of recently called (active) apps - I have to long-press "Menu" button, which is not very comfortable. How to make it work with swiping on screen upward? Are there any configuration settings for that in kitkat?

If you are rooted you can try with xposed framework and gravity box or some other modules that allow you to change your navbar settings or your hard keys configuration.

I do have root, but xposed - or rather its modules, but it's almost the same - does not work at my phone (Alcatel Idol X+).

You can have this gesture, but not while using an app. That's because this would interfere with scrolling or possible app gestures.
I have the exact gesture set to open recent apps with Nova Launcher.
Install Nova launcher, go to Nova settings, gestures and buttons and set the swipe up gesture to open Recent Apps.
This will work when you are on one of your home screens, but not in apps, like I said.
Hope this helps.
Cheers

Hi, thanks. The matter is that I use the launcher, which I don't wish to change. I've been using it for a while and I find it the most suitable for me. It's Launcher Pro. Mostly because it allows to make a bottom bar of shortcuts scrollable, fitting there more than 4-5 icons. Also it's quite fast and does not drain battery.

Nova launcher does this as well. It's incredibly light and fast. Very customizable. Give it a shot. You might like it.
It's considered by many the best android launcher.
I have the paid version and nova launcher is always my first installed app after flashing any rom.
To activate the dock (bottom bar) pages, go to nova settings, dock, dock pages. You can also set the number of dock icons and a lot of other stuff actually

Thanks, the launcher itself is good, but as to swiping action - it seems does not solve my problem. The swiping works if it happens on blank zone. On my Meizu firmware, when I, for instance, had some PDF opened full-screen - I could swipe from bottom of screen or side - if being in landscape orientation - and recent apps bar appeared, so I could call dictionary or encyclopaedia, whatever, and the same way back. It was fast and comfortable. Here it does not work...

Yep. Like I said, it only works from one of the home screens. Don't know what else to suggest unfortunately

In case someone is interested, more or less normal way to do it - "All in one gesture" application. It adds a small "hot spot" zone to drag from.
Good day everyone, so for years i wished for Android to adopt gesture navigation because it's so intuitive and natural. At the beginning it might require some effort to learn how to navigate but later on it becomes effortless it's like walking so to speak.
Anyway i wanted to create this Not Noob friendly :crying: tutorial for others who are interested in having gesture navigation replace the conventional old way but don't know where to begin or start and don't want to use custom roms. What i will be showing are the steps to how to remove the navigation bar using available apps and this method works on all Android rom versions.
Requirements
*Knowledge of how to root, install TWRP and flash zips.
*Rooted device.
Apps
*Gesture navigation app (Edge Gestures(No Root Required, Paid App), GMD Gesture Control(Root Required, Paid App), Swipe Navigation(Root Required, Free/Paid App) or any other gesture navigation app you like .
*GravityBox
*Substratum if you want to theme your rom.
Instructions
1- Install any Gesture Navigation app you like and setup the gestures you like for navigation on that app.
2- Install GravityBox we are going to need it to "hide/disable" the navigation bar. In GravityBox go to the "Navigation bar tweeks" section then under Dimentions heading move all the sliders to 0% and reboot the device for the affects to apply.
Now some of you will ask why not disable the navigation bar through GravityBox itself or from the build.prop using a string of command?, well disabling it will make "Tap On Now" feature not work any more that's why it's better to reduce the navigation bar height to zero and have no compromises, at the same time using the conventional build.prop method doesn't work on devices with Android Oreo and don't support project Treble.
3. Hide the status bar on all apps or some apps depending on which apps that don't play well, this is also an alternative method to still use the stock navigation bar but hide it from all apps.

-Apps used to achieve my setup
*GravityBox
*Substratum theme engine.
*GMD GestureControl ★ root
*Nova Launcher Prime
*[Substratum] Greyce
*Popup Widget 3
*Wallpaper
*Xposed
*NeoPowerMenu
*Rugos Premium - Icon Pack
*Athanotify - prayer times
*Tiles
P.S: All thanks go to the developers of these wonderful apps. :good:
If I may an alternative is also pie control and gesture app like LMT which is on XDA too.
Getting rid of navigation bar is so pleasant agent you get used to it.

I love LMT i have been using it for years now, it and GMD i have been switching between the 2 back and forth i even have videos highlighting it.
But after using both apps i give the edge to GMD and apps like it because it's a 1 step action process compared to LMT pie 2 step process(swipe edge "step 1" + action click "step 2" depending on its position left,center,right) which is not so different from having the navigation bar hidden and then swiping from the bottom for it to pop up the difference though is that LMT is faster and has more flexibility and options.
The reason i didn't mention LMT is because i want a 1 action step "1 swipe only anywhere for action execution" which is easier and more intuitive in my opinion after some learning of course, another reason which is the point of this thread is a shout out to Google to head into this direction which i believe they will soon. Luckily for us Apple and OnePlus are heading the trend.
Anyway by using GravityBox you can enjoy "Pie Controls" which is basically LMT but with a different name.
Having said all that, LMT Launcher is my second choice salute:victory: to the app developer and thanks to you for mentioning it.
My favourite and current gesture setup without root.
Hi Guys,
i want to get rid of the navigation bar via various apps, but i heavily use the accessibility menu . Does anyone know how i can open it without using the "human button" in the navigation bar? Some apps like Nova Launcher or Side Launchers support "Activities Shortcuts", but i couldnt find it there. Maybe its there and it just has a different name. Thanks for any help!
Cheers
I have tried several with no luck and for whatever reason any 3rd party launcher seems to not consistently work, ie default launcher gets "un-selected". So anyone using a shortcut maker that allows you to select an image?
I've had no problems with Nova Launcher. I use the Samsung swipe up navigation gestures and all seems great.

If you install goodlock (and the taskchanger sub app) from the Samsung app store then all of the gestures work reliably
