Hide Navigation buttons? How - Google Pixel Questions & Answers

I never had the buttons stay on the screen all the time until just a few minutes ago. I was playing a game and they all of a suddenly popped up and now they won't go away. What did I do and how do I remove the buttons? I used to just swipe to pull up the bar and now it is there all the time.

Are you running stock or a custom rom?

Stock rooted using Franko kernel.

It's at the bottom of every app now. I was right in the middle of playing Dawn of Titans, which plays in widescreen, when the buttons appeared and stay there all the time.

Ahh Sadly I can't help you out. If you were running a custom rom, I probably could have helped. But I haven't ran stock rom on this phone for a long time. So I'm not actually sure about the settings that are different.
Most I could do to help is to tell you to look in your quick settings. Maybe there is an option like I have for expanded desktop.

no one has any idea???
Is it only certain apps that show that way? Or is it always in that alternating pattern? If it's certain apps, an app can make the notification show up differently. If it's always alternating like that, then I would guess that you flashed something over your rom like a theme or mod, or you flashed the rom without wiping. Flashing anything onto a rom that isn't compatible will cause all sorts of anomalies.

[Q] Power Control widget gone

Stock rooted 2.3.4 GRJ22 V21y. Today my "power control widget" disappeared. Ya know, the blue bar with Wi-fi, bluetooth, gps, and two other buttons I never use. How do I restore this widget? This is almost silly...
Make sure your screen is on and hold your finger down over a empty part of the screen, one that does not contain any apps. After a second or two a menu should pop up with some options and one should say widgets. Select that option and the power control widget should be listed there.

The option should look similar, but maybe not exactly like this. Select widgets.

Slightly Bored. Extremely Helpful.
never mind
Wow, I'm sorry, I was dealing with my early-dementia father-in-law and I was out of it. The next time I picked my phone, I was, "Doh". But thanks for the reply.

It doesn't stay. Once you clear your recent apps it goes away

Not always for me, sometimes it goes away sometimes it stays. Sometimes it leaves a process in the Settings > Apps > Running tab as well. There is some issue with the app closing itself properly.

[Q] Slide to view statusbar on games.

Hi! Recently received the One plus. Just have an issue that is bothering me. Is there any way to slide from top in games to take a look at the statusbar? I used it all the times while playing on the nexus 5 but not working here. Must leave the game to see my notifications. 
You need to put your hand at the very top of the screen and then drag it down as if you were pulling the status bar while being in full screen mode (immersive mode)

For me works normally
Found the problem. I guess I accidentally pressed the block gestures touch events from developer settings.

Google tap to speak voice to text frozen.

I could replicate this all day long. On any application that I could use the voice to text, if I accidently don't close it out and I hit my power button to turn the screen off it will freeze and can not be removed until I reboot the phone or give it about 5 minutes and it will eventually disappear. I've gone as far as factory setting this thing twice and it still does it. Any other ideas or does this happen to anyone else?

I'm glad I'm not the only one, but I'm surprised not many complaints.
I tested on a 3rd note 5 today, same thing.
