Removing Nav Bar in Oreo - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

Is there any way to remove the nav bar in Oreo? Mine stopped working. Not to make the height shorter but to completely remove it or permanently hide it

you can hide/remove navbar with magisk module called 'hide navigation bar'

If you're using Nova, you can hide it using that.

Not hide he means disable it.

It's not possible on oreo, I tried updating it since some lines have changed in bools.xml but it didn't make any difference. So you have to be rooted.

I got Substratum working. Nav bar height 0dp, remove nav bar immersive

If you can give me step by step when u got time it be so awesome.
I'm on the road for a other day but when I get home I'll research more. I tried substratum tweaks from other thread but it didn't help me.

Well, that is the substratum+Andromeda+Samsung System Tools (or however it is called)... you need 5 apps to make such a small change. and it DOESN'T work as well as 0pxtoolbar that we had in Nougat....

Ok.

I can't remember all details anymore to tell the truth, but I remember it didn't behave consistently and that all alternative "navbar" apps were "shown" ABOVE non existing navbar (i.e. you had to slide from above the non existing navbar), also problems with keyboard etc.

No good.
Sent from my Samsung SM-N950F using XDA Labs

I used the adb commands in this thread.....https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/themes/how-to-enable-true-immersive-modes-t3554299 to disable the nav bar when I was on 7.0
When I received the over the air update to Oreo 8.0 the nav bar was still disabled on 8.0.
I've now gone back to 7.0 because 8.0 refuses to switch bands on three uk leaving me with no signal unless I switch bands manually.

Duplicate post

Will try.

LG G2 Navbar Customization Xposed Module

Just wanted to share with everyone that in my desperate attempts to find a way to modify the Stock Navbar I tried out the LG Navbar Xposed module and it works perfect! No 4 or 5 button but it has plenty of buttons to choose for the three available including long press customization for each one. Works perfect transparency stays intact as well as modifications from other modules (gravitybox navbar height). The only thing I've noticed is that the 3 dot button on the navbar will still pop up on apps requiring it. I just used softkeyz and downloaded the invisible buttons from the user gallery so its still there but I don't have to look at it.

You should have just used Gravity Box xposed module. Among every other tweak available to you in GB, there is also a section for modifying NavBar. I shrunk mine down because I don't think it needs to be that big, added always on menu button, and then turned on Immersive Mode (which is really awesome, I prefer it to pie and it's still basically stock android, both function and form wise).
I use the gravitybox module but can't stand not having a dedicated menu button. I know there is the always on option in gravity box but I am left handed and can't stand stretching over to reach it. Plus this has long press options. I find it a lot nicer having the menu button with long press for recents. Just letting people know of more options. As someone who normally uses cyanogenmod and AOKP and adds a menu button immediately I found this perfect for me.

Oh nice, didn't realize there were that many more options available, going to have to check it out and maybe use GB for everything else but NavBar. Thanks.
Maybe I'm missing something, but when i follow the link to the thread, it then takes me to the playstore, where it says its incompatible with my device.
Sent from my XT1060 using Tapatalk
I got it installed but it's very limited in scope unless you unlock the premium version. I'll stick with GravityBox.
I got GravityBox to work for me in remapping the useless Recent Apps to the Menu button and I just have to think that the icon for Recent Apps is the menu. The only way I found.. You have to map hardware buttons to change this. You can also add Kill App to long press on the Back button.

So now that we have root, list your *must have* root apps - UPDATED Master List

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.

You can use an app over on the play store known as "SystemUI Tuner" and you can toggle immersive mode fully, nav bar only (which is what you're looking for), and status bar only. You can do that after giving permissions via ADB or root access grant, if possible.
Forgot to add a screenshot of the app, you could plausibly use it at your will. I don't know if it will work since i don't have oreo myself but i believe it has support for it.

Did someone found a way to hide the navbar while the keyboard or notification panel is present? Well annoying this is!

There's an option on top of the item selection you have to change to "enable animation" or something to that effect. It's not the default. At any rate I'm currently using the mini dark ones with the swirly color dot animation when you hold home so I know it works for me at least.

Sorry for the noob question, but I'm hoping you can help me out. I have the same setup, a rooted OnePlus 5t. I am running 8.0 - I can't seem to get any of Navbar apps' overlays to work.

I have Varefaz's Navbar Pro, Rohit Chouhan's Navigate, and also have Zipalign Cypher's Navbars but can't seem to get any of them work.

Yes. Hitting build & enable and the system ui refreshes. Within the Manager menu, the overlays are colored green, indicating they are active. I don't think anything is conflicting with this; The only apps I have effecting the navbar are Navbar Apps and Navbar Animations, neither of which have root permissions. But as a troubleshooting step, I disabled them but still no luck

You're just not hiding the animation on a rom that already has the animation.
It says in N Navbar Pro's Play Store description that it can't enable the animation on a rom that doesn't have the animation already.

To solve the problem, however, I've used an Xposed module called Pixel Navigation Bar, which also offers a few more features like showing your current battery level as a portion of the ring around the home button.
Has some issues but, overall, does the job.

Hiding navigation bar possible on Android 11?

Hello. I was wondering if there is a way to hide three button navigation bar on my 8t to use a third party gesture app.
I have root and i did try Magisk Hide Props config method by changing qemu.hw.mainkeys from 0 to 1, but nothing changed. Even after reboot the value stayed at 1, but still have the nav bar..
As far as I know, they changed something in android 11 which makes that impossible.
I tried the same with fluid n.g but it did not work
There a way to do it with adb. Haven't tested on 11 yet

Theoretically root (above method) should work, it works on Pixel phones, but currently still not working on OnePlus 8T.
Don't see the problem why they removed that feature. I would gladly use the gestures on Oneplus, but the problem is that it's blocking some features on different apps where I have to press something down in the corners. I think it's because of the google assistant feature.
Why not use the stock gestures?

This doesn't mean "removing" the navbar, what you shown is changing the navigation more from navbar to navigation gestures. What people are talking here is to remove the navbar while in navbar mode, so that they can use third party navigation gestures app.
If you ask why, they (and myself too) doesn't like OnePlus' navigation gestures for certain reasons. Personally, I much prefer the old OnePlus 6 style which is swipe up from bottom left/right for "back" action.

Aka android 9 version. Android 9 also had the two button gesture option. Android 10 introduced this version of it and has been further optimized in Android 11.
Of course this is all stock android versions. Some OEM's modified it like samsung for example. Oneplus isn't responsible for this style as its stock android gesture nav. Maybe in the future oneplus will make there own but there goal is to make OOS as close to aosp as possible while still adding some built-in customization.

Yeah I don't blame OnePlus for this, and it is Google that removed android's ADB overscan feature to hide navigation bar as well. I just hoped that the root method works in OnePlus (the build.prop edit) because it works well on Pixel phones.
I am using Oneplus's gestures + Fullscreen/Immersive Gestures Magisk module, this gives me almost truly fullscreen experience. I hated the arrow key on the bottom left of the keyboard. So this solves the problem for me. Just thought I'd pitch in.

This doesn't mean "removing" the navbar, what you shown is changing the navigation more from navbar to navigation gestures. What people are talking here is to remove the navbar while in navbar mode, so that they can use third party navigation gestures app.
If you ask why, they (and myself too) doesn't like OnePlus' navigation gestures for certain reasons. Personally, I much prefer the old OnePlus 6 style which is swipe up from bottom left/right for "back" action.

What are you talking about? I now have circled the option in the screenshot I have posted this time. I guess it's hard to look around for some of you people. Please don't make me have to post this a third time.

Even though u remove the bottom bar, some apps still consider the empty space there. Check keyboard for example. There is some space and a useless hide arrow on bottom left. I believe OP is looking for a solution to remove that as well(which older versions used to support using overscan). I was looking for a solution to this as well.

You still don't understand, we don't only want to hide that bar, we also want to totally disable the stock gesture so that we can REPLACE with other third party gesture app. On Android 11 the method is to use the 3-button navigation bar AND disable it, so that we can use another third party gesture like Fluid Navigation without the stock one interfering.
If you still don't understand please do not insist you do.
The only person who doesn't understand is you.
