Hi Jimsilver73,
You have to run the following adb command to enable immersive mode ability.
adb shell pm grant com.kenzyun.three_fingers_fullscreen android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS

I tried to run "pm grant com.kenzyun.three_fingers_fullscreen android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS" on terminal emulator.
However, it returns that the terminal emulator doesn't have GRANT_RUNTIME_PERMISSIONS.
I have no idea how to grant the permission without adb.

Works for huawei mate 9
I was looking for immersive mode for Chrome. This application works for me!
Can we make immersive mode enabled for certain apps or only for landscape?

It's working great for me now on 7.1.1 thank you. - it would be amazing if this could enable automatically when we go into specified application as I like to use nav bar most of the time and this in some full screen applications like browser etc. I'd he happy to donate for pro upgrade for this as I'm sure others would too if you have time to do it?
Sent from my angler using XDA Labs

is this still being developed?

hide statusbar or navbar for specific apps
Previous version of application works for EMUI 5.0 Android 7.0.
kenzyun mentioned it in the first post.
It allows to hide statusbar or navigation bar for specific apps using whitelist by package names.

Thanks, I managed to try it, still in my opinion the best way to handle the nav keys is the following -
Hide navigation bar ON
Hide navigation bar OFF
Screenshot 2
Screenshot 3
if only anybody could just repeat this simple scheme?

@kenzyun Great app, working perfect on Mate9.
Is it possible to add an option in "Set GestureAction" > to choose also a "shortcut action" by app, like in Nova Launcher for example?

After I turn off screen, I can not unlock with fingerprint.
Please fix it!

(Guide) Hide Navigation Bar / Immersive Mode/ Transparent [root required]

Hello.
I asked myself why you can not hide the Navigation Bar from the factory.
I Have long researched and have come to this solution until an official version works. It works very well and I am quite satisfied.
On Playstore I discovered this app (All in One Gesture) by YS Liang.
What it can do;
【Supported Gestures
• Swipe from edges.
• Double tap on the status bar.
• Long press on the physical keys (for Android 4.3+). Works great on Android 7
• Mouse or stylus (S Pen) is supported.
【Supported Actions
• Home, Back, Recent Apps, Screen Off, Immersive Mode, etc.
• Launch of an application or a shortcut.
Step 1:
- Open All in One Gesture> Enable Swipe
- scroll down to Corners> aktivate Lower Left Area
Step 2:
- swipe from left to right, you will see Side Panel [Settings]
- go to Personalisation and open Edge Preference; and make your settings.
- (mine configuration is: Opacity 0% , Corner Size 15px, Edge Sensitivity 60px, Edge With 50%, Horizontal
Offset 0%, Vertical Offset 0%, Swipe Distance 40px).
- activate Behind Keyboard
- go back to Side Panel [Settings]
Step 3:
- swipe from left to right to see Side Panel
- click on Immersive Mode
- if you want to see the Status Bar, activate it
- Enable Blacklist and click on Manage Blacklist to exclude your desired apps from Immersive Mode
- Now activate the Immersive Mode in the upper right corner (for constantly usage )
or deactivate Blacklist/Immersive Mode (for using with a swipe down activation....)
you're Done, that's it. play with the settings and find your best solution!!)

Do you have root? Check in Magisk Manager if root is granted for "All about Gesture". If not deinstall the app and install it from Play Store again, use link in post #1. Then check in Magisk Manager Settings, if "busybox" and "hide magisk" is marked on.... :highfive::good:

Ahhhhh that's why i haven't rooted.
For the first time i want to see how long i can go before it does my head in not having root
Thank you for explaining. Might want to add to first post that root is required for per app basis.

You don't need root to enable immersive mode: https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-enable-system-wide-immersive-mode-without-root/

Wait, the S8 has been rooted???

Yeah, but you don't even need root to do this on a per-app basis. Just providing an alternative, non-root solution here.

Using shell I typed in:
"adb shell pm grant com.phoenixstudios.aiogestures android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS" and the blacklist became visible. Also, my keyboard now works with this app.

Is there any ADB command or other non root option to increase auto-hide time when immersive mode is on?
Thanks ?

Alternative to this is go to your Edge settings (default by Samsung) and install the Edge Softkey and the order your Edge Softkey to be first.
Enable Immersive and swipe at the edge for navigation keys.

[Discontinued] [OFFICIAL XDA] Navigation Gestures - Get iPhone X/OnePlus style gesture control

Jealous of the cool new gesture navigation feature on the Apple iPhone X, Android P, or OnePlus 5T/OnePlus 6? With Navigation Gestures, you don't have to go out and buy a new phone if you want to change the way you use your phone. This app brings gesture navigation to any Android device!
Best of all, with Navigation Gestures you can completely hide the stock navigation bar without root! This is the only gesture control app with this feature.
Swipe left, right, up, or down. Swipe up and hold. Tap. Double tap. Long press. There's a lot of ways you can interact with the gesture bar to control your phone. Don’t like how the gesture bar looks? You can customize its appearance! Here’s what you can do:

* Media actions are not guaranteed to work with every app. Media actions use standard Android APIs to work with most apps.
** If you notice that an app is "slow" to launch after using the pill to trigger the home button, that's because of an obscure change made all the way back in Android 4.4 KitKat. Unless you have this Xposed Module or a custom ROM installed with the patch, there's no way around it.
***Lock Screen is compatible with the vast majority of devices. How it works is like this: Makes screen brightness and display timeout minimum and then displays a fullscreen black activity until the phone actually enters sleep mode from the timeout (~5 seconds.) There are other ways to lock the screen but we decided against them, at least for this release.
****Screenshot action uses the MediaProjection API, which is normally used to record the screen. Here, we just record the screen for a single frame. This is the only way pre-Android P for it to work. Screenshots are saved to /Pictures/NavigationGestures

Frequently Asked Questions
Help, I uninstalled the app and I can't access my navigation bar anymore!
Please connect to your computer and run the following command:
Code:
adb shell wm overscan reset
Help, I uninstalled the app and the original navigation bar keeps hiding itself!
Please connect to your computer and run the following command:
Code:
adb shell settings delete global policy_control
Can we add a feature where the pill is in its own separate area so it doesn't overlap with certain UI elements?
No, sorry. We are already pushing the screen content down to hide the nav bar. Adding this feature would require us to push the screen content up as well. We can’t have it both ways.
There's a "white line" at the bottom of the screen!
This is NOT a bug. This is a side-effect of a change we intentionally made after version 1.0.0 because without it, many Samsung, Motorola, and Xiaomi devices were reporting major bugs (eg. black screen after unlocking which made the phone unusable.) The “white line” is caused by the navigation bar being hidden 99.99% but not 100% (ie. we hiding the navigation bar entirely except for 1 pixel.) So the “white line” is actually just your navigation bar that’s colored white. We added an Experimental Setting called "Use Full Overscan" which gets rid of the white line. Use it at your own risk.
Pill doesn't work with Samsung DeX/Samsung Good Lock!
Android prevents third-party apps from showing overlays on top of SystemUI apps like the status bar and lock screen. You can use the blacklist function in Behavior settings to make the original nav bar show in these apps.
Pill doesn't show when you open the camera from the lock screen, answer a call from the lock screen, or open a notification for quick reply from the lock screen!
Android prevents third-party apps from showing overlays on top of SystemUI apps like the status bar and lock screen. This also includes calls, apps, or notifications answered from the lock screen. The pill cannot be shown until you unlock the device.
Pill doesn't show in Facebook Messenger, Drupe, or other floating apps!
Go to Experimental Settings and select the "Keep Pill Shown in other Overlay Apps." Pick Messenger, Drupe, etc. in this list.
Pill doesn’t work with screen pinning.
We have no way of simulating a long press on the back button without root. A tentative solution we are looking into is detecting when the phone enters a pinned screen state and disabling the pill to bring back the stock nav bar.
Home action doesn't work on the OnePlus 5!
OxygenOS prevents the app from performing the home action if you both enable the software navigation bar and disable the "always enable home button" option in Button settings. To fix this, please enable the "always enable home button" option.
Pill keeps "jumping" up and down with the navigation bar!
This means you either enabled Immersive Mode manually (ie. not from the app) or another app triggered Immersive Mode which is interfering with our app. Here are some possible causes and solutions:
Nova Launcher: In the "Notification Bar" section under "Look & Feel," there may be a "Hide Navigation Bar" option. If there is, check to make sure that it is disabled.
LG G6/LG V20/LG V30/LG G7 ThinQ: Go to*Settings > Display > Home touch buttons > Hide Home touch buttons and disable the "lock/hide icon" option up top and uncheck every app in the list.
Samsung Galaxy S8/Samsung Galaxy Note 8/Samsung Galaxy S9: Go to*Settings > Display > Nav Bar > Show and Hide Button and turn off the toggle up top and uncheck every app in the list.
Feature requests
Is it possible to keep the pill in the same spot when rotating the screen?
We will be adding this as a feature in a future release.
Can we add an action to launch a shortcut/activity?
Yes, that is planned for a future release (premium.)
Can we add Tasker integration?
Yes, that is planned for a future release (premium.)
Can we add a swipe down and hold gesture?
Yes, that is on our todo list.

Is there improvements in performance or anything while rooted?

There's no difference with running this on a rooted device right now except it'll make setup easier (you don't need to use your PC for set up if you're rooted.)
In a future release we may allow for shortcuts/intents to be sent so you can customize the action to your heart's content (and potentially use root to do more actions.)
Also, if there's enough demand we may use input KeyEvent commands to inject button presses rather than the Accessibility API. This should give better performance but it requires root. It's not something we've implemented yet though.

Well, for me is no big deal. But for others, running ADB could be. I don't think it's right to not be able to skip that permission, since, you can(almost) disable completely the taskbar..

when the typing, pill is up-on the keyboard. it must always be in the bottom.

Wow.. cool :good:

@MishaalRahman: APK ?

Great app but after I enabled Navigation Gestures. My icons/screen move to the right side. I'm using S9+ . Please advise.

That is very strange. This seems to only be happening on Samsung phones. We asked Max Weinbach who has an S9 to test it and he never had this issue. We'll have to figure out why that happens.

Thanks for this app, I'm having fun playing with it.
Using it on Oneplus 5t oreo stable 5.1.1 magisk root, all permissions granted, premium addon installed, nova launcher beta.
When I set the vibration to 0ms when I exit that page of settings the vibration gets automatically reset to the default 50ms.
This does not seem to occur on any setting from 1ms upwards. I am interested to see if anyone else can reproduce this behaviour.
The way the pill works with SwiftKey keyboard is interesting, perfectly functional but not an ergonomic location on a longer screen for me.
Edit: ninja'd by the OP, see why you've done it that way with the keyboard now.

I see now. It only happened when doing gesture up on the screen for "All Apps" the only way for me to make it normal again by turn the the screen off and turn it on again.

anyone know how to turn off that system prompt displaying over other applications on notification? kinda annoying...btw using emui 8 oreo 8.1

Working fine on my Xperia Z5 running stock nougat...
Pill on top of the Keyboard is the safest position in my opinion to avoid accidentally pressing it when tapping the space key..
I hope you can introduce more swiping features in your future updates.
Great work.
Edit:
In some games the pill disappears completely leaving no option to exit the game. What I did was to go to settings via control pannel.

Disable Nav Bar Completely and Use Gestures

Hey, guys. I've been visiting this thread lately looking for a way to disable the navigation bar in Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+ but as many of you hear I've been having a hard time finding a way to disable it because of Oreo. I found about this app just today and wanted to share it with you cause I think you may be interested if you want to navigate through your beautiful Galaxy S8/S8+ using gestures and in fact is an app from the XDA team themselves.
The App is Navigation Gestures, It's a pretty good app which I just discovered today. as its name suggests it provides the ability to navigate through your phone using gestures. but the important part here is that is a pretty good option, the best one in my opinion, since you're able to remove the navigation bar completely without messing with your phone. I've previously tried some other options like using the ADB command to adjust the screen values to hide the nav bar which it's a decent workaround but comes with some minor problems (e.g. the icons in the lockscreen dissapears depending on the values used, values varies depending on the resolution you are currently using in your phone so it doesn't work properly when using power saving mode, etc...)
the app works pretty well since it hides, I'm not sure if it disables or hides the nav bar, but i'm assuming it just hides the nav bar cause a white line is visible after you enable it completely, it does need you to input an adb command using your pc, I'll link some other threads to do this process if you don't know how to do it. Also the Navigation Gestures guides guides you through the process of inputing the ADB command and it even provides videos of it.
Links:
Install ADB on Windos, MAC, Linux
Navigation Gestures
Issues:
CAUTION: If you don't like the application and decide to uninstall it make sure you disable it first, since it doesn't bring back the nav bar automatically by uninstalling, disable Navigation Gestures before uninstalling, otherwise you'll have to install it again from the playstore and disable it manually. This is mentioned in the app itself as well.
White Bar after enabling Navigation Gestures and Solution (see attached files): As I mentioned before, I think this app hides the nav bar since after enabling the Gesture Navigation it still has a really thin white line on the bottom of the screen, which in my opinion looks bad aestethically and is obnoxious; to solve this just install the following mod, it doesn't require root but you still need to input a command using ADB. what this app does is it let's you choose a black color for the nav bar, which removes (or disguises?) the white line in the bottom. (Settings > Display > Navigation bar > pick the black circle) props to the user @oyaxai for this! BLACK NAVIGATION BAR .APK
Immersion Mode: I have the an immersion mode app installed and it doesn't play along very well with this app, the Navigation Gestures app has no problem using the keyboard without navigation bar since it moves the "gesture pill" on top of the keyboard so you don't accidentally press it but I had some issues where the "gesture pill" just dissapeared (see attached files), I thought it was a bug but I disabled the Immersion Mode and the "gesture pill" indeed was moved to the top of the keyboard as intended. Immersive Mode App I am using in case someone is curious.
Animations: this is a personal issue, it doesn't affect the app in any way but I wanted to mention that the "gesture pill" animations can't be disabled, I find them not good looking and kind of useless, this is just my opinion though, you may like the animations.
Attachments:
Pic Album (The white line in the bottom is barely noticeable but is definitely there, you may be able to see it better once you enable Gestures Navigation in your S8/S8+)
This is my first time making a thread in XDA so I apologise if the formatting is not correct or even the forum.
and if something is not right I'd appreciate if the mods would let me know, so I can do it properly, thanks.

Thank you so much for this post.
I'll try it soon and reply how it goes.
Keep up the good work

Thanks a lot for this. This is my first time replying a thread^_^
But I still have a bit issue to be solved. After picking the black circle, the white line is still the same, it doesn't change to black color or disappear.

i use edge gestures. i used this app to disable the nav bar and uninstalled it haha
---------- Post added at 06:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:48 PM ----------
i would suggest you guys to use an alternate gesture app too, and use this app just to hide the nav bar. its very basic and doesnt allow you to hide pill. other apps let you swipe from bottom etc. i also use bxActions as a failover just in case gestures fail.

Make a video showing this in Galaxy S8 !!

A short video would be great!

I really like this app, but I hate how it disables the pressure sensitive home button. When you press it, it'll vibrate but not do anything.
Does anyone know a work around to enable both gestures and the pressure home button?

The last beta auto hide the persistant thin white bar attention the bottom. ?

How do i just use this app to hide? by turning off gestures it turns off the modification right?

such a shame, xda is too late. used a gesture app approx 4-5 months lol. Gesture Control + Edge Gestures is a best combo. (dont show pill and hide nav bar completely)

How to permanent enable it to system?

If you have root access, add this into /system/build.prop
Code:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
will trick the Android system to believe that the device has a hardware navigation keys and should disable the navigation bar completely, used to work in Oreo.

You will have to put those commands into /system/services.d for that.

Navigation bar in Emui 5.0.3

Greetings friends.
I would like to know if there is any way to hide and appear the navigation bar as they do in Emui 8. This gives you the option to hide the bar through the button but with a gesture up appears again.
without using any application, only with ADB commands.
my phone is BLL-L23 does not update Emui 8. Working under Emui 5.0.3

Root is not needed
1. Download Database Editor from playstore.
2. tap "Add New Setting"
3. A window will pop up. Type "hide_virtual_key". Then Save Changes.
4. Another window will pop. Set the valeu to "1" then Save Changes.
5. An arrow will apear in nav bar just like in Oreo tap it and done
When bringing back the nav bar delete the entry in database settings editor youve just created

My regards, brother. Thank you very much for your answer.
I tried the way you indicated but I would like the bar to return without having to change the value manually. Is there a command that allows you to specify an application and not show the bar?
