So far, everything about the Nexus 5 is fantastic. One minor issue I am running across is related to the popup keyboard. For starters, I am using the GravityBox Pie Controls (always enabled feature). They are great, but the constant softkeys popping up when using any keyboard makes it quite annoying.
I looked on Xposed Framework and did not see any module that rectifies this minor annoyance.
Does anyone know of a way to disable the softkeys completely when using any android keyboard?
Bump as I have yet to find a solution to this problem.

I use gravitybox for expanded desktop + pie and have never had the softkeys pop up when using the keyboard, on either of my phones. Are you using actual expanded desktop or immersive mode with gravitybox?

Expanded desktop. I believe it is set to hide navigation bars. I'll try playing with the settings.

Are you stock on your Moto X?
I suffer this same annoyance (as the OP) with Immerse Me module. The newest Gravity Box mod was to fix this but it breaks Desktoo Mode. Only "hide nav bar" and sem-immersive" mode work. Semi-immersive acts just like hide nav bar as you can't swipe to restore the nav bar.
I just use immerse me for now and deal with the keyboard and volume bug. Running stock root Moto X Dev VZW.

Yeah, stock rooted. Have you tried the App Settings module? It allows you to set immersive mode on a per app basis. Not sure if it will solve your problem but it's worth a shot.

I will try it.
What version of Xposed and GravityBox are you using?
I am using 2.4.1 (xposed) 2.9.4 (GB)
*update* Just tried App Settings and it still suffers from same keyboard and volume issues.

My X is on 2.2 for Xposed and 2.6.3 for GB. I'm still on Jelly Bean on my Moto X.
My N5 is on 2.4.1 for Xposed and 2.8.6 for GB.
What volume issues are you talking about?
Hello XDA community
Currently Under a Gnexus CM10, I just bought a new Nexus 5.
I need your help to get the fast parameters in the notification bar like CyanogenMod ( i love this )
I'm Root, but I dont want to change my ROM. I've got GravityBox but I can not find this option.
i've tested notification toogle but when i have an notifition with an email or sms,notification toggle is in the 3place, but i want the setting in the top, like CM setting.
Can someone help me ?
Sorry for my bad English
Why not just use the quick toggles that come with android?

I believe so. Check it out and see.
Yup, power toggles just requires a one finger pull down.
He's not looking for power toggles on the home screen, but rather in the notification drawer to be accessed any time, just from the one swipe. However, I don't believe you are going to find a solution that doesn't involve an app that sets the toggles in the notification drawer, but as you found, they don't pin to the top. This is most likely due to certain kinds of priorities and permissions that aren't easy to implement in a regular app. I haven't seen an Xposed module that would add this kind of functionality yet. You could check out the Xposed thread and put in a request for it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2327541 However, I'm pretty sure that if it is a deal breaker, a custom rom is gonna be the way to go.

Thx, i gonna ask my request on this topic. Power toggles is good but i dont want an icône on m'y home bar.
If you have idea, sens me ^^
I've got my nexus 5 for a couple of months now, and as soon as I've had it I rooted it and installed the xposed framework for modifications. I use gravity box in order to use pie controls and hide my navigation bar but I kinda miss my on-screen buttons but can't seem to find a way to do it.
Extended desktop mode is off.
I've enabled the navigation bar in gravity box for no success, and tried to used the GMD hide soft keys application but that doesn't seem to work as well (either does several other applications)..
Even tried and disabled gravity box but nav bar just won't come back..
Both the Xposed framework and Gravity box are update
.
I am using the american Nexus 5 32gb model with KK 4.4.2.
Would very much appreciate the assistance!
Either disable expanded desktop or toggle immersive mode off
Both are off (wasn't on in the first place)
You cant have navbar and pie. Its one or the other

Well you dont have to enable nav bar. That master switch in your screenshot is actually just for tweaks. So try set Pie to enable = never and leave nav bar tweaks set to off too.

I actually did that right after I saw your post, and reboot, but still nav bar doesn't seem to pop.
I really don't want to do a factory reset and am hoping to avoid it if possible :\

You should uninstall that GMD thing too.
Sure you've not edited SystemUI in any other ways? You're still on Stock ROM?

All apps I've used and didn't work were uninstalled.
I am on stock 4.4.2 ROM and I don't belive i modifies SystemUI in any way knowingly, how can I check if I have?
BTW, I really appreciate the help! Thanks!
You would know if you had.
Go into the Xposed installer app and uninstall the framework (we can reinstall it later - you wont lose any settings) then reboot. This should rule out anything xposed related. If it's still happening its nothing to do with xposed as it doesnt make changes to actual system files.

Nav bar returned!
But now of course I don't have my xposed frameworks and modules
*PROBLEM SOLVED!*
So I got up and reinstalled the xposed module and on and checked each module..
Apparently the 3 dot menu button on every application kept the navigation bar from going up.
Thanks alot rootSU for your help and guidence!

OK so now you know it IS an xposed module. Now you have to work out which one it is by disabling them all then installing the framework. Then enable one at a time (and reboot in between) to work out which one is causing the issue

No probs. Glad its sorted.
What is this 3-dot botton your referring too that solved your problem. I have the same issue and i guess it's the Gravitybox module because everytime i disable it the recent key returns. Im in lollipop as well Stock rom for xperia z3
Greetings!
I know there's a way to put the device always in "Immersive Mode", that way you can hide the Navigation Bar:
Code:
settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=*
But every time I swipe from the bottom to any place in the screen, the NavBar appears again (thats really frustrating >_<).
I use LMT Launched (pie), so... I don't need the NavBar to be there.
Is there a real way to truly disable the Navigation Bar???
On some roms, there's a way to do it from inside options (like in Pure Nexus rom for example), I'm currently using RenovateICE, but that option is not implemented yet.
Also, the old trick to disable the NavBar (qemu.hw.mainkeys=1) does not work on Android 7+.
Thank you for your time!!! =D
This is something I'd love to see a workaround for. I love the immersive mode feeling but I can't stand that you can't disable the nav bar completely. It hinders your ability to use swipe gestures whenever it comes back on screen and really it just defeats the purpose so I stopped using it for now.
I'll wait for a way to disable the nav bar completely on the stock ROM before I go back to "immersive mode" (if anything of the like ever comes along that is).

Yeah, or for example, when the keyboard pops out, the NavBar appears. D=
I'm pretty sure that there should be a way to do it!!!
Hi,
I was facing the same thing, and decided to take the plunge and root my phone, just for this since I have an exynos version.
From then you can edit the prop build file and remove the navbar permanently.
I use Swipe Gesture (app) to navigate around the phone with every apps full screen, it is a game changer. You can even customise actions (long press launching split screen, ect...)

What line did you added to build.prop???
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 ????
Lilolilo27, if you could elaborate on which parameter(s) you had to change in the build prop I would be forever thankful! I didn't think there would be an easy fix for this so soon!
Hi,
Yes just add the qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 line to the end of the build prop file with a root explorer and reboot.
Just for precaution, make a backup of the prop file before hand AND set up Swipe Gesture or any other navigation app BEFORE making the change (or your keys will be gone and you wont be able to navigate around your phone)
Thanks lilolilo27. I'll have to give this a go when I have a few minutes and see how I come up. Thanks for the heads up btw.

WOW, that worked now!!!
I tried this on the S7 Edge and Google Pixel (with android 7+) and I had a bunch of FC's.
I just applied this tweak to my S8+, and it worked smootly!!!
Thank you for the heads up!!! =D
enjoy!
I personally love it, don't see myself using a navigation bar ever again
shame we dont have the same option as windows phone , the swipe up to hide the nav bar , simple but perfect

Don t know if have tried https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.goodmooddroid.gesturecontroldemoGmd gesture app. It is one if the seminal apps that changed how u interact with android. There are many apps for gestures but it is still one of the best. Try it.
Couldnt find the swipe gesture app

anybody try this with the current oreo beta 2? I've had to pull and push the build.prop twice because it seems to break the touchwiz home and won't finish booting

Added it to my build.prop on Oreo b2, and had the same issue. Have you tried the layers solution? I would, but I haven't purchased the Samsung extension and don't really want to until I know it works (my hunch is that it only works on Nougat)

Screenshot of the buttons menu?
My navbar disappeared also, along with the status bar. Didn't uninstall or install anything. It just happened out of nowhere one day. Tried everything to get it back but no joy. Thankfully I had a nandroid backup, so just reflashed and all was ok.
