Old Style Navigation keys - Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers

I am wondering if anyone knows or heard of anyway that the gesture navigation can be turned off and use the old style navigation keys instead? I know Google wants us to use the new gesture navigation and cant for the life of me understand why they are taking a stand with this and leave an option to turn off that ugly notch in the XL model?? I am wondering if the old "adding this line to the build prop will work" qemu.hw.mainkeys=0...this is assuming of course that we can root and Magisk will work with the new Titan security.

Great question! I will also be very interested in switching back to traditional navigation keys. The gestures just don't flow well. Why swipe right to go switch to the last app, but then you can't swipe left to go back, you have to tap. You swipe up to access the app switcher, but tap the pill to go home. Google, either use swipes or use taps, NOT BOTH!!!

You have to download Pixel launcher from Piixel 2

Shouldn't there be an ADB command for this?
Edit: Try this ADB command at your own risk:
"adb shell settings put secure swipe_up_to_switch_apps_enabled 0"
To reverse it try:
"adb shell settings put secure swipe_up_to_switch_apps_enabled 1"

Once we get root I am hoping for a way to get the old style nav bars back this new stuff is for the birds,,,I dont like it at all.

I gave this a try, but sadly it did not work. No error messages or anything, just no changes either.

Try deleting nexuslauncherprebuilt on rooted phone. And install third party pixel launcher. But don't yell at me if anything goes wrong.
Edit: when the device is root-able. I managed to revert back to oreo recent and traditional navbar on Android pie custom room for Nexus 5x, by simply deleting nexuslauncherprebuilt.

Lets hope that it is this easy. I doubt it will be though.

Once we get root, I'm sure apps like custom navbar will bring back the old style. It already works in Android pie.

Root shouldn't take too long. Mr. Magisk man has already achieved it on his P3 :good:

This was just posted on the front page:

This is awesome thank you brother! Just did it now I have my nav bar back! Just need root to get my Substratum themes to work. I know the Magisk dev is working on it and I have no doubt he will get it for us soon.

Sure it does. You just need root and a good theme

I think most people believe that because the way in which you apply the overlays are different. As long as you have a rooted phone and a Substratum theme that supports Android Pie you can use Substratum. There is just two more steps in the usual process after you build and enable the overlays. After you apply overlays, you just need to reboot your device and then go back into substratum and go to manager and enable the overlays you just built.

Hide navigation Bar for MHA-L29C636

Hello everyone,i was wondering if there is anyway to edit the build.prop to enable the Hidden settings?afaik only MHA-AL00C00 habe the ability to hide the navigation bar.

You can try to activate feature a retractable navigation. Need full ROOT
Method:
Using RootExplorer go to System and keep a copy of the build.prop. If does not help, restore stock recovery. Then open the build. prop in a text editor and find the following line ro.config.hw_navigationbar=false(change to true)
If such lines do not exist you just need to enter
ro.config.hw_navigationbar=true
Put "permission 0644 and reboot

None of the usual methods work so far. I too would love a way to disable them as I prefer to just use LMT pie controls with no nav bar.

Can anyone confirm if this actually works? When I tried editing the build.prop previously it glitched the screen out and I had to wipe. Have you done this and successfully disabled your navigation bar?

Oreo beta and bloatware

Hello all, so I was surprised to see Oreo update, but I did sign in for beta and after some time here it is, problem is I can no more uninstall bloatware (no root) like we were able with Emui 5. Anyone got any hint on how to remove that big amount of s**t in Oreo?

That's not an option. I mean, I want to uninstall and with previous one I was able to do it via phone manager. There was this list of pre-installed apps but can't find it anymore. So I just want to confirm if it's gone or just hidden somewhere. Thanks anyway

Check Phone Manager - Cleanup - Storage Manager (button/text top right). Here you have pre-installed etc. I can't remember if I saw it though, I went back to EMUI 5 and always use root to remove pre-installed stuff.
Can't see the option you are talking about in emui 8, could you post a screen shot?

[MAGISK] Andromeda Enabler - Enable Andromeda ON DEVICE With a Command!

Hello, folks! I've written a Magisk Module which includes a modified version of the Linux activation script for Andromeda, allowing you to enable Andromeda with a single command (two, if you count su)! I was inspired by the OTHER local Andromeda enabler script here on XDA, as I had downloaded it but discovered that it only worked intermittently on my device. Now, I know, you may be thinking to yourself "OP, is there something wrong with you? Andromeda exists so you DON'T have to be rooted!" Yes, this is true. However, from what I've gathered, there is a speed boost from using Andromeda, and that alone makes this worth it for me, and hopefully others. Plus, I was bored and wanted to see if I could make it work.
This module is written to work with Magisk v15. It will NOT work on Magisk v14, however, it is a single binary, so you could very easily extract it and place it on your phone or make a v14 module yourself.
To activate Andromeda, all you have to do is install this module, reboot, launch a Terminal Emulator, and type:
Code:
su
andromeda
Substratum should launch with Andromeda permissions, as if you'd used the Desktop Application.
@saccentekennedy has made an app! Flash the module, install his app, and when you launch his app, it will grant Andromeda permissions! No commands needed! Be sure to thank his post!
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ap...ndromeda-enabler-enable-t3728325/post75053802
UPDATE 1/12/2018 - The script did not properly set SELinux back to Enforcing, this is now fixed. Please update! Thanks to @Floydfire for the heads up
Works perfectly!
I've created a Tasker task to run this... But I can't figure out how to trigger it. In other words, how can I get Tasker to detect that the Andromeda isn't properly running and connected? I know I get a notification when the service goes down. I suppose I could use this as a trigger? Any thoughts?

You could potentially use AutoNotifications with Tasker to detect the notification but I'd probably just set the trigger to the device booting or being unlocked, or make a widget with an app, like SManager, so you can just tap it.
I created a little app with Tasker. It works. I've used Tasker plenty but never created an app. Anyway, I don't know if this will work for anyone else, but this works for me at least
You need the Magisk module installed, BTW.

Works fine for me. I'm gonna link this in the OP, if that's okay with you. What's the code that went into it? Just executes 'andromeda' when you launch it?

So congrats this is very interesting!
I'm curious, though.. I'm rooted and I've got substratum and magisk 15.x installed (current version). I purchased and installed Andromeda. I downloaded and installed y'alls zip and the apk. Is there a way to check that it's working properly? What I do have is the module in magisk is enabled but the actual Andromeda app keeps closing when I tap it (wasn't sure if it was even supposed to be opened or if it was a background app)

When you launch it, Andromeda mode should be activated and you can just launch Substratum. You can check if Andromeda mode is on by checking under the Substratum settings. Under System Certification it should say Andromeda mode (Certified). Substratum should also launch after you launch the Andromeda app included here

Do you own Tasker? If you do, I actually made a profile to enable Andromeda whenever I launch Substratum, and I'll upload it if anyone is interested. I don't know how to make an application-triggered task into an app, though.

I have noticed that I can't seem to use this module alongside anything else that also adds to /system/xbin (specifically "Busybox for Android NDK" by osm0sis). Only one seems to stick. I don't know if that's just a side effect of the way magisk works or an issue with one of the scripts. Could anyone provide any insight into this issue?

Ran this script. Rebooted. My navbar disappeared and all icons went square with no option to change icons back to circle. Pixel 2. Magisk with factory Jan. 8.1. I'm not sure what could have caused this. I had to edit my build.prop to get the softkeys back. I guess no more OTAs for me. Anyone know how to get circle icons back?

[Guide] Magisk Modules Disabler for booting into Magisk core-only Mode

Tools needed: boot.img extractor. I recommend the one created by osm0sis from this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2073775
The first method was developed by osm0sis and removes magisk and all modules.
1. Unpack magisk_patched.img
2. Unzip overlay.dremove1.zip and place overlay.d folder in ramdisk folder.
3. Repack IMG
4. fastboot boot image-new.img created by repacking img
This method is an offshoot of osm0sis version but boots core-only mode. Afterwards, remove the .disable-magisk file from the /cache folder for modules to work. Dot files are hidden files so if your root explorer can't see hidden files, run the "Remove disable_magisk" bat file in ADB.
1. Same as above but use the overlay.dcoreonly1.zip
For both methods you must be rooted for it to work. These are not cure all's for all bootloops.
Remove .disable_magisk bat file
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=4349826312261684994
Here is a fastboot bootable image to boot you into Magisk core-only mode, in case you bootloop due to flashing a bad module, in fastboot:
fastboot boot image-newpixel4xl.img
You will boot with root but modules disabled. After you remove the offending module you will need to go to /cache folder and delete the .disable_magisk file before your modules will work.
fastboot boot image-newpixel4xlRemove.img
This one should remove magisk and all modules, then reboot and magisk should reinstall itself (ask to install necessary binaries). This is what osm0sis uses to recover from failed flashes. See this post:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pi...odules-disabler-booting-magisk-t3976625/page2
Images are in this common folder. Pick the appropriate image for your phone.

Awesome, since we may not have TWRP this is extremely valuable.
Thanks for this, I was able to boot back into the OS. However, I had to do a complete uninstall of magisk to get rid of the bootloop.
Thanks again, saved me a wipe

I would like that very much. I'd much rather not use xposed. Every time I have it has been a little flaky. Do know though that I tried the center clock mod you already made and it wasn't working for me.

I did some more troubleshooting and the clock mod does work now. But only sort of. It doesn't work with Nova set as the default launcher and gesture navigation. It disabled the home action as far as I can tell.

okay I think I figured it out. It had to do with the navigation gestures hiding the nav bars. Unless it's set to full Iimmersive mode then it somehow conflicts with the gestures and the launcher. Oddly this only happens with the clock mode enabled and not when it's not.

okay. I just changed the navigation bar to be visible since it's so unobtrusive in the gesture nav.
I also set up per app immersive, which more than makes up for the lost real estate.
Thanks for helping me sort it out,and even more so for the work you do on the mods. I've had a pixel since they came out, and I really like the stuff you did for my 2 xl and 3 xl.

[ROOT] Enable Fluid Navigation Gestures in any rom in less than 2 minutes

Edit: The module I shared here is old. Download updated FullScreen Immersive mode gesture module from the magisk app directly.
I remember a few years ago people loved Fluid Navigation Gestures when it came out. The liquid animations on the sides and bottom of the provided people a smooth experience. Good times ended when Google messed with the overscan setting in Android 11 which prevented Fluid Navigation Gestures to display over stock Android back and recent gesture.
Good News: You can use it again with a simple trick
Bad News: You'll need root with magisk and a magisk module
• Go to magisk manager and download Fullscreen/Immersive gestures magisk module by DanGLES3 [Thank you Dev] (Added it on this post but you can download it from modules section on magisk manager).
• Start flashing the module on magisk.
It'll start asking a few questions and you will have to answer them using the volume up/down button. The first four questions aren't necessary for this tutorial but you will have to go through them.
• 1st question (Fullscreen or Immersive) - choose whatever you like
2nd Q (Hide pill and keep the keyboard height) - choose whatever you like
3rd Q(About reducing keyboard bar) - choose whatever u like
4th Q(Sensitivity) - doesn't matter
5th and important one is about Disabling back gestures. Select Volume up for YES
• Now magisk will ask you to reboot so reboot
• Download Fluid Navigation Gesture app from Play Store or the bottom of this post
Play Link : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fb.fluid
• Install and open it. Click Enable and you will have to give it accessibility and draw over other apps permission access. Now go to options (bottom right), give is write secure settings permission using either root or adb.
• Done. Now customize as you like inside the app.

I remember a few years ago people loved Fluid Navigation Gestures when it came out. The liquid animations on the sides and bottom of the provided people a smooth experience. Good times ended when Google messed with the overscan setting in Android 11 which prevented Fluid Navigation Gestures to display over stock Android back and recent gesture.
Good News: You can use it again with a simple trick
Bad News: You'll need root with magisk and a magisk module
• Go to magisk manager and download Fullscreen/Immersive gestures magisk module by DanGLES3 [Thank you Dev] (Added it on this post but you can download it from modules section on magisk manager).
• Start flashing the module on magisk.
It'll start asking a few questions and you will have to answer them using the volume up/down button. The first four questions aren't necessary for this tutorial but you will have to go through them.
• 1st question (Fullscreen or Immersive) - choose whatever you like
2nd Q (Hide pill and keep the keyboard height) - choose whatever you like
3rd Q(About reducing keyboard bar) - choose whatever u like
4th Q(Sensitivity) - doesn't matter
5th and important one is about Disabling back gestures. Select Volume up for YES
• Now magisk will ask you to reboot so reboot
• Download Fluid Navigation Gesture app from Play Store or the bottom of this post
Play Link : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fb.fluid
• Install and open it. Click Enable and you will have to give it accessibility and draw over other apps permission access.
• Done. Now customize as you like inside the app.

Is there a way with root in Android 11 that I can reduce the size of the screen? You used to be able to do it with the overscan command but they took that out of 11.
Is this still possible to do? I have a stock Pixel 5 that I'm considering putting a custom ROM on. Being able to hide the nav bar and use FluidNG would be a huge selling point.
