Hey guys, i intalled the good lock ui on my S6 and enabled navigation bar.
Now i'm having the problem that when i'm in landscape mode in any app, there's a big black bar at the bottom.
Is anybody facing the Issue too?
know any fix??

I've had the phone for one day and it's a sexy phone. However I was encountering an annoyance with the navigation bar (the bottom strip with the home button and back button.) There is an option to change the navigation bar background color (settings > display > navigation bar > background color) but the issue is that it only applies when the keyboard is not present. I set my color to black, but everytime I would send a text or type anything the bottom navigation bar would switch to default white. I like my dark theme and this was a YUGE issue for me, but some people may enjoy the contrast or be fine with white.
The fix I found is a program called "NavBar Apps"
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.damianpiwowarski.navbarapps
It works without root (which is not yet possible) and allows a user to set a static color for the navigation bar, plus other options like battery or dynamic nav bar color from current application. I don't use these features as I enjoy my solid black, but they are interesting to try.
In my opinion static color for the nav bar is the best as I strongly dislike the changing of solid colors between open and closed keyboard.
Hopefully this is helpful, peace

This was great. Thank for sharing. ?
Great! Thanks! Anything we can do about notifications background being white even if I have a black theme?

Thank you so much! I realized, however, that the app does need to be running in the background for the color fix to work. Which is fine as long as my nav bar matches my black keyboard
Awesome, it works perfectly!
That's all well and good, but a reminder: static images burn in on AMOLED screens. Perhaps Sammy set it to change as a preventative measure.
I just got the s8+ and I am wondering if there is a way to make the keyboard larger on the screen. Thanks!

This isn't quite the place to post your question.
However
While the Samsung Keyboard is open, press the key that looks like a gear, and select "Keyboard size and layout."
Make sure to always thoroughly check app settings!

I'm using SwiftKey. Wonderful app.
Hi, I got my s8+ a couple of days ago and I am using a black theme from Samsung which indeed doesn't theme the nav bar when the keyboard is open.
I am afraid to root it right away and if this works then I am all for it.
Question: themes from the Samsung store only change the color of the built-in apps but not the 3rd party apps like whatsapp.
Even the color of the notifications are still white. Any ideas?

Then just go for black navigation bar. No burn in with shut down pixels.

I was thinking more of the navigation buttons themselves. The image of the keys inverts when the bar is white.

They are moving 1 pixel every know and then. So no problem.

There are actually many people reporting burn in on the navigation buttons, sadly. I was looking for a way to keep the bar fully functional but invisible. Do you guys know anyway to do it? Thanks

I use All In One Gestures to activate immersive mode. Unfortunately the keyboard (and a few other random things) don't work while in immersive mode, so I set an edge gesture at the bottom of the screen to deactivate it if I need to use the keyboard.
I also set navigation to edge gestures so I don't need to exit immersive mode often.

I think all of this is a lot o hassle. Mine's coming today and I'll try some immersive mode options, but will keep looking for the invisible icons idea as this would change absolutely nothing on my daily use of the device.

I have just updated the firmware on the SM-G955F and used the hide option for the Nav bar.
I now have a burn in for the Nav bar. Definitely obvious on any whitish background.
Anyone with the same issue?
Nope.

You dont have burn in on the nav bar, you have burn in on the rest of the screen. the nav bar is the non burnt bit, assuming your nav bar was black of course.
Get AMOLED Burn-In Fixer from the play store. I occasionally runnitnon my Pixel XL to reduce/eliminate burn in. Works really well. I turn my brightness up all the way, and either set the screen timeout to 30 minutes, or use developer options to keep the screen on while charging, then I just run the app overnight while I'm asleep. Screen down so it doesn't light up my room.
I'm sure it will work on the S8+ as well.

I don't know where you got that information, but that is not correct.
I took my phone to a Service Center and they replaced the screen on account of burn in.

That's impossible. The navbar buttons more around over time slightly so there isn't any burn in. If burn in was an issue then your status bar would be F'd.

Do you already have it back and is your screen better overall? No red tint anymore when tilted?
when in doubt throw it out, meaning warranty exchange or refund. end the pain before it continues

no option to hide unless you got adb and fastboot command lines to do so. here in the usa no one has that update yet. im using abd and fastboot PC app to use commands. ive had bar hidden for 48 days.

Hello,
I just recently installed some black overlays for the notification tray and navigation bar, as well as a transparent and shorter navigation bar to hide the buttons but keep the black region visible.
The only issue I would like to resolve is to have the Edge Notifications work properly. Can it work with overlays?
Thanks

I have quite a few overlays and Substratum installed and don't have any issues with edge notifications. You might should ask this question in the thread that you got your overlays from.
Hi All,
This is my first time using 1+ and noticed that I can't change the nav bar color. I tried to use the NavBar app on the playstore, but the setting doesn't stick for home screen using Nova. Anyone know how to change it?
Would also like to know. Sometimes it's dark, sometimes it's light. Hate the inconsistency!
I'd rather just have it be black all the time until they can add fast app switching and swiping up on the right side for recents as options to gestures.
It appears they have made the default navbar colour white, which is incredibly annoying.
Guys, use gestures options! The only missing feature with gestures is the lack of fast switching to the latest recent app, yes...

"Just use the device in a different manner" is not a valid response to "I'd prefer the ability to x".
I have issue about navigation bar, sometimes I see. When I surfin at white background, I want to see white bar or when I surfin at black or purple or something, I want to see match color. But I see black on white Page. It is irritate me. How can I fix that, Ive root.
