[Q] show car navigation in a widget - General Questions and Answers

does anybody know a navigation app which has a widget?
I would like to have a permanent view of actual gps position in a map widet. My plan is to show this widget on the homescreen of my android car navigation device (roadnavi S160, Kitkat 4.4.4). So if I switch on the device I can immediately see my position even without having specified a route.
Til now I did not find any navigation software that offers such a widget. I read about multiwindow module in xposed framework, but this seems to be not very stable.
Does anyone have a good idea, how to solve this?

Car panel auto with others gps software

Hi there!
I would know if there is a way to lanch car panel with another gps software which is not google maps, I have sygic installed and I would like that the car panel lanuch sygic instead of google maps, is there a way to make this possible??
no one, really??
On mine, the last setting in the settings menu is default navigation program and I'm guessing it will show any nav program you have installed.

[Q] what happened to the turn by turn navigation app?

anyone know what the name of the turn by turn navigation app is on the stock tf101?
Does anyone know who makes it? Is it a google app or an asus app? was it discontinued?
and finally does anyone know of the apk is avalable for donload somewhere?

The navigation app was a part of Maps. When Maps updated to version 7, the nav icon disappeared. You can now just open the Maps app and tap the curved arrow on the right of the search box to get turn by turn directions.
If you really want it back you can uninstall updates to the Maps app and disable automatic updating and you can still have your nav icon.
Turn by turn is still there, it's just been merged into the Google Maps app. It's a huge improvement this way. Previously, Maps and Navigation were two separate apps, and the transitions between them were jarring (going from maps search to nav was ok, but clicking back out of nav dumped you to the homescreen, losing your search). They each had their own app cache, so you'd be waiting for the maps to load twice, etc... Seriously, the flow of the new Maps app is way better now. I've been using it daily.

[Q] Android> disabling gestures

I have been trying for days now to achieve proper 'kiosk' mode on a Nexus5 running kitkat.
I am 90% of the way there using this solution
http://thebitplague.wordpress.com/2013/04/05/kiosk-mode-on-the-nexus-7/
The above solution works with one caveat> the top status bar(with battery, wifi icons, etc) is auto hidden but is still viewable on a vertical swipe from the top.
So, as a solution I want to disable swipe gestures
Is there an easy way to do this in Android?

[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:

Single tap
Double tap
Tap and hold (long press)

* 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 ?
asking for root permission on Samsung S9 plus SM-965F. without root permission app is not functioning
Great app but after I enabled Navigation Gestures. My icons/screen move to the right side. I'm using S9+ . Please advise.

That's by design so it doesn't interfere with the keyboard.

You can ignore the root prompt and follow the instructions to grant the permission manually by ADB.

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.

How to disable all system provided navigation on android 10 OB1?

Hi,
I use swipe navigation app to get around my phone usually. I find that due to the customization I am much more efficient using that than any of the OS provided navigation options.
To make this work properly there needs to be a method to completely hide all OS provided navigation.
On Oreo a magisk module named "Show/Hide navigation bar" accomplished this for me. Before that it was qemu.mainkeys.hw = 0. It seems that both of these are again broken on Android Q.
Has anyone managed to completely hide all OS navigation so that they can properly use a third party navigation app? Does anyone know how I can do this?
Thanks
Yes, this is an annoying bug! Typing on Instagram is broken because of this I think
