How to change the navbar padding with root? - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

As you probably know, the navbar in EMUI is mostly the same as stock, but the soft buttons have more padding in the sides and are thus closer together. If there any way to edit this side padding, and make the buttons look more like stock? I'm rooted so there must be a way using some xposed module or tweak, but I don't know what that way is, if you know, help would be greatly appreciated :good:

"Expanded desktop" or "immersive" with soft keys?

Is there any way to use expanded desktop/immersive mode without getting rid of the softkeys?
Essentially I don't want a status bar at all, but I don't want to lose my soft keys or have to swipe up to enable.
Ideas?

With Xposed + Gravity Box, there's an option to just do immersive status bar, so the navigation bar stays, but the status bar "hides".

ART is overrated. At least right now since its in development stages. The pros of Xposed outweigh the pros of ART in my opinion.

[Q] Possible Volume keys to move cursor?

So I totally know this is a new phone, and S-Off has only recently been achieved.
However does anybody know how to create this mod??
I really liked it on my previous phones.
Install Xposed framework and the Gravity Box [KK] module. Be sure to activate and reboot as needed. The setting is under Navigation Bar Tweaks of Gravity Box.
I had the Xposed Framework on my DNA, any issues with it on the M8?? I do know that some modules didn't play nicely together. It also seems that Gravity Box is for AOSP roms, Sense is not even close to AOSP.
Thank you
All I can tell you is that I have gravity box on my stock, rooted, S-off Verizon m8 and my volume keys control the cursor. I also use Gravity Box for a handful of other status bar and navigation bar tweaks without any problems. My attitude is to make a nandroid and then see what happens (so long as I'm not flashing things in recovery).
In that case i'll give it a try.

You could use xposed with the gravity box module and swap between immersive mode and normal whenever you want.

Yeah but you have to use a toggle and it also hides the status bar, rite?

Force any app to go behind the NavBar

I was looking for any module for my Nexus 5 that can allow me to have a translucent NavBar.
As I've understood, almost every app is set to don't go through the navigation bar, the result is that the NavBar has a black background and the screen looks smaller.
I found a module for KK but it doesn't appear to work on MM.
Any suggestions?

This is a little bit different. I would like to have my Navbar transparent as it is in immersive mode, not immersive mode I don't want the Navbar to hide.

You need to root then install Xposed then in Xposed search BlackNavigationBar

I strongly recommend removing the navigation bar all together and enable gestures, at least try it. I liked it so much I cant go back to nav bars again

Gestures are trash. Tried for a week
Meizu did it best years ago.
Navbar apps is CLOSE to working (not great) and I do NOT want to root. All that does is lead to problems. We need OP to add system level control over navbar color, that would be awesome (if possible)
I use navbar while trying also to get used to gestures.
It does not need root, BTW. And it has some nice customisations. But sometimes, it gets forgotten, and the customisations don't apply (Which often resolves after a few moments but it just means it's not perfect).
There is also a module that can detect when keyboard is open, so you can choose a keyboard appropriate colour, rather than in apps like Facebook having bright white navbar against my material dark themed keyboard.
Gestures could be quite nice, but I need more control of them. For example, I find the home gesture and back gestures get mixed up sometimes. I would rather have one side of the phone dedicated to home (right side, until about 25% from the edge) and the rest to act as back.
Also, I still have some apps that use menu button, which, with buttons, can be mapped to long press recent tasks, but has no equivalent gesture. It could have a similar gesture to how you get to recent apps, but from the back button side. It would keep the gesture logic and adds a function that works in certain contexts.
Until gestures have the controls I need, I will continue using navbar. Coming from an Honor phone, it's really great that it works, even if it sometimes forgets to activate. (Huawei's os has this magical way to overwrite any customisations that the user might like).

Also the hide the nav bar option gives you transparent nav bar.

correct. I don't understand why OnePlus didn't do it like that instead.
f you have Xposed Systemless and Magisk installed (requires root and an unlocked bootloader obviously, also assuming this is for the Oneplus 5, 5T, or 6) install the Xposed Module "BlackNavigation Bar for Oneplus 5T, Oneplus 6" by yuanwofei. Works great and makes it black instead.
