Why are there no mods to customise the navigation bar already?
I'm missing the AOKP features... no ROM offers customisation on the Navigation bar... what a shame.
I would like to change the height and rearrange the buttons and also add a menu and search button...

XBlast Tools has an option for it as of 1.6.7
You'll need Xposed Installer for the framework, an you'll be able to download xblast from the modules menu
Just wanted to share a mod to remove the navigation bar and add a custom one.
(press on the screenshots to make them bigger)
To remove the stock navigation bar, just add this line in botten of the build.prop
qemu.hw.mainkeys = 1
There is alot of good navigation bar you can use.
I use the "ultimate dynamic navbar" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2270198 (no need to use XPOSED)
Thanks great info*

If you do remove the nav bar using the build.prop method, just note that the camera app will no longer work correctly.
A little update.
As @bigkevbosky say there will be problem with the camera app when you remove the navigation bar using the "build.prop method".
A way to get it working is to skipp the "build.prop method" to remove navigation bar.
And use the use Xposed "G3 toolbox module" - Miscellaneous Tweaks - Disable navigation bar.
Ok, so I use the module to remove then download that app?

Download and install the app before you disable navigation bar from G3 toolbox.
Download and install -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2270198
Then open G3 toolbox - Miscellaneous Tweaks - Disable navigation bar.
Most will be advanced to know about build.prop edits, however for those that don't.
Here is a little guide to get rid of the nav bar completely & use swipe gestures.
DEVICE MUST BE ROOTED.
1)Download Swipe Gestures (Google Play) & Enable.
2)Head into build.prop and add this line (at the bottom)
qemu.hw.mainkeys = 1
3)Save & then Reboot.
The nav bar will be gone (clean look) you'll then be using gestures to Navigate (which I prefer)
Enjoy.

:good: just wanted to point it out for my non-rooted friends.
Thanks for the tutorial.
Is there anyway to change the colour or transparency of the single key (pill) navigation button without root
Is there a line in adb I can edit?
Running Emui 9 with Apex launcher if that helps
SystemUI tuner won't work to hide the status bar. does anyone know any method to hide the status bar via a magisk module or anything else?
You can auto-hide the navigation icons from within Settings, but I think you would need the Global theme app rather that the limited CN theme app to make most changes to the status bar. If you do experiment with the Global themes app, change your region to India because Xiaomi restricts most Themes functions by region and India enjoys the most extensive theme options.

you can only hide the nav bar in the stock launcher from my experience. I found a magisk module that hides the nav bar though. I want the status bar to be gone in every app, hidden away only available to be pulled down only if you need to see it. i've found many threads all over without a way to do it in the newer android versions thus far

I think I can create magisk module to change status bar size to 0px (= hide completely), but then you can't pull down it since the size is 0 and there's no area to touch.

that sounds awesome to me. if the size is 0 - couldn't we still use a custom gesture to pull it down even if we can't see it at all? that would be amazing as I use custom gestures like this already.

OK I created magisk module to hide status bar:
magisk-module-nostatusbar.zip
drive.google.com
You can use custom gesture to open notification/quick settings.

thanks so much, this is awesome. right now it just hides where the status bar was so that it leaves a blank space where the bar was. is there any way for the full screen to fill up this space? either way I am using this and thank you for trying.
also, have you had any luck getting ok google to work with the screen off?
just sent you a donation as well, thanks so much
Edit this is perfect when unfolded it takes up the full screen all the time

Fullscreen/Immersive gestures q-t
This module worked perfectly thank you! Is there a way to set it to like 1 or 2px that will still make the status bar show if I tap that area? I can set custom gestures for the notification shade but the status bar and icons don't show. Thank you
