I'm wondering this too. Immersive mode is one of my favorite features of KitKat but no apps use it yet
ive been wondering my self as well, seems that you need to root and falsh some rom to get it...

There's a couple ways to do this. The first way, which is what I do is to use xposed+ gravitybox for expanded desktop + PIE controls. You can add a toggle in your quicksettings to turn it on and off at will. Here's a easy guide I put together for it- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2554592
Another way also uses xposed but it uses a module called App Settings which allows you to set immersive mode on a per app basis. You can download it from the xposed installer app.
Both methods require root but work on the stock ROM.
So I had CyanogenMod 11 installed for a while and whilst I much prefered it to stock android I am a big user of the camera and I couldnt stand the CyanogenMod camera so I have gone back to stock.
Whilst I am mostly finding stock completely useable, one thing I am really missing is CM's option to expand desktop.
So I am wondering if there is some img that I can flash to give the phone this feature without having to install the whole rom?
Thank you.

Search for xposed framework, then follow the instructions to install. Reboot. Download GravityBox (can be downloaded from within xposed app) and activate it. Reboot.
Expanded desktop is under display tweaks in GravityBox, and there's even pie control in status bar tweaks.
Don't forget to thank the devs

+1. I use this method on both of my phones and it works beautifully. There is also an immersive mode option in gravitybox but I much prefer standard expanded desktop + pie controls.
I wrote up a semi detailed guide on how to set it up- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2554592
Thank you very much to both of you, much appreciated

Thanks for the guide. Do you have any idea how I can automate this in tasker for stock 4.4.2 rom? (i.e. auto immersive mode / expand desktop for specific applications) I have tried enabling it via secure settings, but it complains about my rom.

You know, I never got into tasker so I can't help you there, but there is an Xposed module called App Settings which allows you to set Immersive Mode on a per app basis. It's a must-have module, IMO. You can download it from the Xposed Installer app.

Wow, that was all I needed Thanks a lot... Tasker gradually becomes obsolete for me for many tasks, day by day...
Hi guys,
do you know how to turn off this shortcut?
I am not sure if it comes with Nova Launcher, or something else, but I've searched through Google settings & Nova Launcher settings and couldn't find that
Any ideas? It's totally useless for me, but often open google when I doesn't need that.
Screenshot it attachment.

Gravitybox lets you disable it
I have Paranoid Android installed, not all functions in GravityBox work for me.
But just to check it - which one and where, because I've also looked there...

I don't use PA at the moment but I'm pretty sure in settings there is an option that let's you change navbar targets.

Title says it all. What root required apps were you dying to use on your S6 and now you can? I'll try and keep up with the thread and make a master list. So far:
Titanium Backup
Flashfire
CF.Lumen
AdAway, Ad Free
Root Explorer, ES File Explorer
Secure Settings/Tasker
3C Toolbox
BetterBatteryStats
Emoji Switcher
KingMaster/User
Viper4Android
LMT
Greenify
Xposed (not working on Samsung LP devices yet.) with Wanam.
SQLite Editor
Samba Filesharing
CSC Feature Expert
App Ops
Right now, I just have Titanium Backup and CF.Lumen.
Any clue if there's an app similar to Wanam to make some visual changes? My first step after rooting is usually cleaning up the status bar a little, but that seems difficult right now until Xposed works on Lollipop TW (if we ever see that day).
AdAway (changes host file to block ads, download off FDroid because it was removed from the play store)
CF.Lumen (like flux but changes the color temperature of your phone at night)
Emoji Switcher (change Samsungs ugly emojis to kitkat/lollipop/iOS)
TiBu (backup and freeze apps)
Root Explore (help me do lots thing~)
KingMaster and KingUser (help me manage root and RAM, which developed by us ~lol~, we are prepare to release them on XDA)
ADB Program (essential thing of developers~):cyclops:
adaway/thread
Viper4Android!!!!
Adblock plus
Tibu
Root Explorer
Tasker
Emoji switcher
Now we just need xposed and I'll be happy

ooo emoji switcher. thanks for that. i was looking for a way to switch out Samsung's emojis.
immediately after root, i installed greenify, titanium backup, betterbatterystats, viper4android, adaway, and LMT.
i would like xposed too but apparently it doesn't work on samsung phones with lollipop. lame.

I tried lmt, and I get it Running yet nothing seems to work on it. Most likely something I'm doing wrong, but I've used it before and never had an issue setting it up

i had the same issue at first too. turns out it was because i installed the 2.4 version. after doing some googling and couldn't find any answers, i decided to just install the 2.5 beta1 version and now it works perfectly. you can get it at the LMT thread here.
now i'm trying to find a way to disable those damn capacitive buttons completely.
Does anyone know if the sqlite wifi tether hack will work now? I'd like to uninstall foxfi.

Use the app galaxy lights. Then delete it once you turn them off. The setting sticks

don't know of why you want to disable the button so all together but I found... all in one touch. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.phoenixstudios.aiogestures
swipe left to hard keys... select back and recent, single tap for each and scroll down to bottom and select none. Enjoy!

This works awesome. All I did was reverse the back and the recent apps key. I like the traditional layout better. Back, home, recents

well if i can use LMT, i dont need those capacitive buttons. they always just get in the way for me, hitting them by accident and whatnot. never liked phones with those kinds of buttons.

Hello,
Can anyone help me with this issue with Marshmallow? I try to fix it but no chance.
In Settings >> Apps >> App permission I can't allow or disallow apps for permissions because this error. I have freeze apps like Lux and set display overlay for the apps to "no". But don't work.
Any idea?
I have been getting same issue. Really doing my head in. Hope someone can find a solution!!

But I can enable permissions when the App ask for it. Only overlay issue in the Settings. App Ops, the xposed Plugin don't work in Marshmallow.

I found the solution for me. Is your phone rooted and using Xposed with the Gravitybox App? Disable Gravitybox and this issue is gone.
Is there any idea how to use gravitybox without having that issue ? Maybe any special config parts in it ?

haven't tried narrowing that down. I use Tasker + autoshortcut plugin + greenify to hibernate and dehibernate overlays on demand for permission changing.
