Well hey there you. What are you doing here? Wanting to tweak your status bar without Root? Well what a coincidence because that's what I'm going to show You ;p
This is an app called Systemui Tuner from the playstore. It's cool because if you're manufacturer has turned off the stock one, this will still work!
To see if your phone has it already, bring down your notification bar and long press the settings icon, it should start spinning and it will open a new option in settings; Sorta like unlocking dev options.
Requirements -1.) A PC, preferably with ADB installed
2.) The app
3.) Your OCD, because I figure that's why you're doing this.
Lets get started! Download the app here
Open the app, and "read" through the setup. It will tell you to enter some commands via adb (unless you're rooted).
Make sure USB debugging is on and plug your phone in. Now go to where ADB is installed and hold shift. While holding shift, right click and select "open command window here"
Now, type "adb devices" to make sure your device shows up.
Now, type the following:
Code:
adb shell pm grant com.zacharee1.systemuituner android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
and
adb shell pm grant com.zacharee1.systemuituner android.permission.DUMP
Now, you should be able to mod your status bar and there's a few other cool things in there too

I smashed my screen and it's unresponsive and blacked out. I'm able to view my screen via PC using androidscreencast but in order to use keyboard and mouse input, I need to chmod something and I don't have access. In order to grant access, a SuperSU dialog pops up for the ADB Shell (2000), but I can't click Grant because my screen is broken.
I need to access an app with some data and I'm not sure what to do at this point.
Idk if this, "software" update was from Samsung, or Sprint (in the US). But it updated something about the nav bar, and colors? Added a single dot to the nav bar to close it
But now the nav bar stays up on some games, and the new lil dot to close it, isn't there. No matter if I switch the full screen or any option in the gaming menu. Power off and back on etc, nothing. Some games it goes away, but Clash For Dawn, for instance, doesn't.

What you can do is use the Android Debug Bridge (ADB) to help remove the nav bar from your screen. This will allow you to not see the nav bar until you swipe up from the bottom of the screen. I have also written instructions to remove the status bar also.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR HIDING NAV/STAUS BAR
1. Go to Developer Options in settings (on your phone) and turn on USB Debugging. If you don't know how to go to Developer Options, scroll down till you find the instructions I have written.
2. On your PC, navigate to the folder where ADB is installed (for me it is Documents > platform-tools). After that, open a Command Prompt window here (by holding shift and pressing right click in the blank space of the folder). If you do not have ADB installed scroll down till you find the instructions I have written.
3. When you have successfully opened a Command Prompt in the folder, connect your phone to your PC, then an option will appear (on your phone) if you want USB Debugging. Click accept.
4. Go back to the Command Prompt on your PC, and now you have these options: you can either get hide the nav bar, the status bar, or even both.
-If you want to just hide the nav bar, type: adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=*
-If you want to just hide the status bar, type: adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.status=*
-If you want to hide BOTH nav and status bar, type: adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=*
5. As soon as you hit enter, your phone will apply the changes
6. Enjoy!
IF YOU WANT TO REVERT ANY CHANGES, TYPE: adb shell settings put global policy_control null* INTO THE ADB COMMAND PROMPT!!!!!
HOW TO TURN ON DEVELOPER OPTIONS ON YOUR PHONE
1. Go to Settings
2. Navigate to "About phone"
3. Tap the Build Number seven times
4. Go back and scroll all the way to the bottom
5. Developer Options have been turned on
HOW TO INSTALL ADB ON YOUR PC
1. Go to this link: tr.im/adb
2. Follow the instructions
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, FEEL FREE TO LET ME KNOW
I can't believe they took this away, and wanted to know if anyone had any idea of how it can be added in on Android 10.
Thanks
adb shell cmd overlay enable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.twobutton
Thanks!
When I run the command it seems to work, but I don't actually get the two button back? Is there anything else I need to do?
SM-T337A Samsung recovery lock removal on T337AUCU2BOH4 firmware can be downloaded here
None of the tutorials I found would allow me to remove the samsung account from this tablet and I have been racking my brain for about 3 days on this one and finally got it figured out, though I would post it here for future.
Please already have ADB downloaded and a samsung account created before you start.
Factory wipe tablet from recovery menu, up+home+power, or reload with ODIN with the files linked above.
When you enter first setup screen hold 2 fingers on the screen until you hear a voice telling you to keep holding, this will make another screen appear. Select exit, it will highlight green, then double tap it, you should be back to the original screen.
Select your language, press once it will highlight, select language, it will turn green outline, then double tap it to select. make sure nothing is highlighted green at this step, selecting language should clear any selections.
Swipe an “L” with you finger on the screen, Start from the top left area and towards the bottom then to the right in an “L” shape.
This will make little half circles appear on the screen, select the lower right corner for settings, this will open the settings screen.
Make another “L” on the screen, this time select the upper left corner half circle and then click ok, it will highlight green, and then tap it twice. this will temp disable the speaking.
Go to about device and tap on build number until you get developer menu, enable USB debug mode, approve connection on tablet when it ask.
Now we need to hide a few things through ADB.
Open your ADB command prompt and type the following:
1. Adb shell <press enter>
2. pm hide “com.osp.app.signin” <press enter>
3. pm hide “com.sec.android.app.SecSetupWizard” <press enter>
Now reboot the tablet by holding the power button and selecting reboot.
It should reboot to an old looking setup screen, go all the way through this process and you should now be at the home screen.
Now we need to root the device with temp root here
After rooting the unit following the previous instructions we need to enable and unhide the Samsung signin app.
In ADB:
1. Adb shell <press enter>
2. Su <press enter>(you may get a pop up on tablet screen asking for permission, click ok)
3. pm unhide “com.osp.app.signin”
4. pm enable “com.osp.app.signin” <press enter>
Now we need to invoke the Samsung signin application so we can put in our information (please have a Samsung account made for this)
in ADB: (skip the first 2 steps if you are already in su prompt)
1. adb shell <press enter>
2. su <press enter>
3. am start –n com.osp.app.signin/com.osp.app.signin.SignInView$ReSignInView <press enter>
You should now see the Samsung loin window open on the tablet, enter your Samsung account information, after everything goes through you should now have access to the tablet and be able to factory reset the device with your information.
hello video youtube ?
All of my recent devices have had the back button on the right of the navbar, or the option to move it. I'm so used to having mine in that configuration that I kept hitting the wrong button so decided to change it, using ADB we can achieve this.
Connect to ADB then use the following commands:
adb shell
settings put secure sysui_nav_bar "space,space,space,space,recent;home;back,space,space,space,space"
If you want the buttons spread out a little more, remove a space from either side
