For ADB, I just use Minimal ADB and Fastboot. I'm no expert so you should also do your own research.
Assuming you got that all sorted out:
1. Type "adb shell" and enter.
2. Type "wm" and enter.
3. You will see various settings to change your display such as "wm size" (change resolution), wm density (same as "smallest width" in developer), etc.
4. For the camera flush you need to type "wm overscan 0,-23,0,0". The "-23" will move the status bar up. Play around with the settings. I personally use "wm overscan 0,-23,0,-23" to move the status bar up and bring the navigation bar down a bit.
5. Remember that little black mark from changing the dp? https://imgur.com/gallery/fM78t Yeah, that's actually just the chin mask to make the edges at the bottom look curved. When you change the display size that can appear. "wm show-chinmask false" to disable it.

edit: If you "hide navigation" for certain apps such as Chrome, it kinda turns wonky. If you just leave the navigation in default it should be ok.

Works good. Thanks for the tip.
I like how it moved the icons up a bit, and shifts the UI up in the apps. Only app I have found from the ones I have installed that doesnt look exactly right is Solid explorer.
Looks great, thanks man.
trying to revert this on ob3, but it seems wm does not work on oreo? maybe i need root, but i doubt it.

Any screenshots that show how this looks in comparison? Thanks!
I have a couple of questions, if anyone is able to help, it would be much appreciated:
In landscape, how would I get rid of the black bar on the camera notch side per app, if at all possible? I know getting rid of the black bar IS possible, I just don't know if it's possible per app.
What command in adb allows apps to fill the status bar, without hiding the status bar? As in, full screen mode with status bar there, but it's just transparent, like on Google Maps, or Nova Launcher.
I currently us AOSiP which allows all this to happen(minus the per app full screen mode unless I'm unaware of it), and I love this ROM. However, there are a few things I'm unable to accomplish with this ROM as of right now, and would like to know if I'm able to get the "full screen" utilized.
And let me be clear, I'm not interested in the immersive mode apps or adb commands such as
Code:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=*
I hope my request for help has made sense, and thank you all in advance!
Heave you ever hit home while aiming for space?
I've got a solution for you! With this tasker profile you're navbar will hide when the input field is active and turn on the gesture controls. You can get your navbar back with gesture or by simply losing input fields focus
Requirements:
-5T OB
-Tasker
-AutoInput
-Notification listener

Seems like it does not work properly on custom rom which really sucks because I have been trying to find something like this to hide navbar while typing. Thank you for making it anyways .

Yeah, it requires OB3, I think it would be possible to hide the navbar like that on custom rom, but I'm not sure how you would bring it back, when you cannot lose input focus and you dont have gesture controls...
This is working greate with oreo no root

Thanks, this is working great. Also gives me another use for Tasker which is always a plus. :good:
Hi! Really interesting! Is this still working? I get an error with
settings put system op_gesture_button_enabled 0
although I gave secure settings permission to tasker! Does it need root?
I press "n" often when I want to press space

Hi,
I know it's a long time, but can you explain this method a bit more in detail. I tried it, it basically works (when I set immersive WhatsApp then it's doing what it should), but especially with GBoard it doesn't.
When I have GBoard and WhatsApp set to immersive.navigation WhatsApp doesn't show the NavBar but as soon as GBoard opens to type a message, the navbar shows up again.
With
adb shell settings put system buttons_show_on_screen_navkeys 0
the navbar disappears completely, I have no chance to operate the phone anymore.
What am I doing wrong?

That's the purpose. You have to install simple pie or any other replacement of the stock navbar before erase it with adb shell op_gesture_button_enabled 0 mod
So I wanted to hide my Nav bar globally Specially on home screen, And this is what i did...
Home still work immersively but you have to to swipe up for the other buttons to work...
This is on s8 snap dont know for exy
Of coarse need adb
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=*
To undo
adb shell settings put global policy_control null*
Btw I am on PCRom nougat
I know there are themes and overlays but this at least no app installed to help keep system slim

My bad, I didn't read the OP thoroughly, just took a quick glance.
I thought this was related to this thread
Hey, guys. I've been visiting this thread lately looking for a way to disable the navigation bar in Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+ but as many of you hear I've been having a hard time finding a way to disable it because of Oreo. I found about this app just today and wanted to share it with you cause I think you may be interested if you want to navigate through your beautiful Galaxy S8/S8+ using gestures and in fact is an app from the XDA team themselves.
The App is Navigation Gestures, It's a pretty good app which I just discovered today. as its name suggests it provides the ability to navigate through your phone using gestures. but the important part here is that is a pretty good option, the best one in my opinion, since you're able to remove the navigation bar completely without messing with your phone. I've previously tried some other options like using the ADB command to adjust the screen values to hide the nav bar which it's a decent workaround but comes with some minor problems (e.g. the icons in the lockscreen dissapears depending on the values used, values varies depending on the resolution you are currently using in your phone so it doesn't work properly when using power saving mode, etc...)
the app works pretty well since it hides, I'm not sure if it disables or hides the nav bar, but i'm assuming it just hides the nav bar cause a white line is visible after you enable it completely, it does need you to input an adb command using your pc, I'll link some other threads to do this process if you don't know how to do it. Also the Navigation Gestures guides guides you through the process of inputing the ADB command and it even provides videos of it.
Links:
Install ADB on Windos, MAC, Linux
Navigation Gestures
Issues:
CAUTION: If you don't like the application and decide to uninstall it make sure you disable it first, since it doesn't bring back the nav bar automatically by uninstalling, disable Navigation Gestures before uninstalling, otherwise you'll have to install it again from the playstore and disable it manually. This is mentioned in the app itself as well.
White Bar after enabling Navigation Gestures and Solution (see attached files): As I mentioned before, I think this app hides the nav bar since after enabling the Gesture Navigation it still has a really thin white line on the bottom of the screen, which in my opinion looks bad aestethically and is obnoxious; to solve this just install the following mod, it doesn't require root but you still need to input a command using ADB. what this app does is it let's you choose a black color for the nav bar, which removes (or disguises?) the white line in the bottom. (Settings > Display > Navigation bar > pick the black circle) props to the user @oyaxai for this! BLACK NAVIGATION BAR .APK
Immersion Mode: I have the an immersion mode app installed and it doesn't play along very well with this app, the Navigation Gestures app has no problem using the keyboard without navigation bar since it moves the "gesture pill" on top of the keyboard so you don't accidentally press it but I had some issues where the "gesture pill" just dissapeared (see attached files), I thought it was a bug but I disabled the Immersion Mode and the "gesture pill" indeed was moved to the top of the keyboard as intended. Immersive Mode App I am using in case someone is curious.
Animations: this is a personal issue, it doesn't affect the app in any way but I wanted to mention that the "gesture pill" animations can't be disabled, I find them not good looking and kind of useless, this is just my opinion though, you may like the animations.

This is my first time making a thread in XDA so I apologise if the formatting is not correct or even the forum.
and if something is not right I'd appreciate if the mods would let me know, so I can do it properly, thanks.
Thank you so much for this post.
I'll try it soon and reply how it goes.
Keep up the good work
Thanks a lot for this. This is my first time replying a thread^_^
But I still have a bit issue to be solved. After picking the black circle, the white line is still the same, it doesn't change to black color or disappear.
i use edge gestures. i used this app to disable the nav bar and uninstalled it haha
---------- Post added at 06:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:48 PM ----------
i would suggest you guys to use an alternate gesture app too, and use this app just to hide the nav bar. its very basic and doesnt allow you to hide pill. other apps let you swipe from bottom etc. i also use bxActions as a failover just in case gestures fail.
Make a video showing this in Galaxy S8 !!
A short video would be great!
I really like this app, but I hate how it disables the pressure sensitive home button. When you press it, it'll vibrate but not do anything.
Does anyone know a work around to enable both gestures and the pressure home button?
The last beta auto hide the persistant thin white bar attention the bottom. ?

How do i just use this app to hide? by turning off gestures it turns off the modification right?
such a shame, xda is too late. used a gesture app approx 4-5 months lol. Gesture Control + Edge Gestures is a best combo. (dont show pill and hide nav bar completely)
How to permanent enable it to system?
If you have root access, add this into /system/build.prop
Code:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
will trick the Android system to believe that the device has a hardware navigation keys and should disable the navigation bar completely, used to work in Oreo.

As you know, with the new Display Notch, the status bar lost quite a bit of real estate, in order to have enough space for new apps to display useful information here's how you disable some of the default status bar icons!
You don't need root, just adb so I'l be assuming you know how to use it, there are plenty of tutorials all over the forum about it.
The command you want to use to disable, for example, the Bluetooth and WiFi icons:
Code:
adb shell settings put secure icon_blacklist bluetooth,wifi
The list of config_statusBarIcons (the list of possible icons you can disable) that I could find for Huawei are:
Code:
managed_profile
ime
sync_failing
sync_active
cast
location
bluetooth
powersavingmode
earphone
nfc
tty
speakerphone
zen
mute
volume
wifi
cdma_eri
data_connection
phone_evdo_signal
phone_signal
battery
alarm_clock
secure
clock
volte_call
eyes_protect
Don't forget to reboot the phone after that command:
Code:
adb reboot
This is the settings I use:
Code:
adb shell settings put secure icon_blacklist bluetooth,nfc,eyes_protect,alarm_clock
Note: You can also use System UI Tuner but it only seems to work for the WiFi and Carrier Name
Enjoy!
How it looks (Stock Android 8.1, EMUI 8.1, Microsoft Launcher):
Excellent post, I have used the command tonight works well.....
But I am thinking I would like to turn the WIFI Icon back on, how do I reset the status bar ?
Also do you have the command for "do not disturb" ?

I'm running a non EMUI ROM. All the icons are usually on the right, the ROM has the ability to move the clock to the left / center but nothing else.
Id prefer the clock on the right on it's own.
So my question, do you know what content needs to be changed in order to re-order the icons to the different locations on the status bar??
Cheers
My current status bar
SystemUI tuner can hide most icons, just use the auto detect option. And reboot after toggling. VPN which I don't see on your list can be hidden too
Okay, great news, I had taken off various icons a couple of days ago, great , but I had taken one off one I wish I had kept, but also needed to remove another one.........anyway I used the ADB command and only entered the one icon in the list I wanted to remove and then ADB rebooted.....to my surprise all my icons came back on, all except the one I had added to my remove list, so basically the line of code written changed to only remove one icon as opposed to remove all previous icons and then one icon I had just added........SO if you are not happy with your choices, simply re do the process and add the icons you would like to be removed and reboot, the Icons removed will be just the ones on the list you just made and any you wish you had not removed will be returned.......
I cant hide the clock for some reason.
Thanks for the tip. Hate the stock layout. Unfortunately I can't get the HD call icon (volte_call) to disable but the others I wanted to remove are gone (BT, Nfc, eyes protect)
Edit:Suddenly the HD calls icon has left the status bar but I haven't re-entered the adb command as to try again. It just disappeared a few days later. Funny thing is the green dial icon in the dialer no longer shows HD either.
Anybody else try to remove volte_call? Did it work for you and did the green dial icon change also? Can't figure out if it's the adb command or my service provider since wife's S7 still showing HD calls(volte).

It is really stupid having an "HD" icon displayed 24/7. But I wanna keep the volte function on.

No, the command didn't work. Although my HD notification did disappear for about a month only because it was turned off by my provider for some reason. It was nice not having the HD notification but noticed that it just leaves a blank spot on the status bar. Notifications didn't "shift" over.

That is double annoying. Thanks for the reply!
Wish we could simply select what we want cluttering the space of notifications, since we have the notch covering most of it.

Just reenter the same command, it'll bring all the icons back. Then enter the command again removing the icons you don't want showing.
