fingerprint gesture

Anyone onow a way to use the fingerprint gesture to pull down the notification shade like in the pixel and the s8???? I tried some apps but they usually dnt wrk.... Is it a hardware limitation on the n5 that it might not b possible??? I tried fingerprint quick action when it was in the beta stage and it wrked great, but once it hit the playstore it stopped responding like b4....
Any one know a way?

Hardware limitation I think..

you can use a launcher called: Nova Launcher
but u need to buy the premium version.
to be more specific, it will not act the same way you are asking, in the premium features you have on screen swipe gesture where you can assign the swipe down gesture to show the notifications.
I'm using this method and it is really nice.

Nova launcher can't add fingerprint gestures like pixel phones and others, just screen gestures

Why people disable NavBar?

Any reasons why people use mods/hacks to disable the navbar permanently? Samsung offers the option to do so, but why u have to disable it permanently?
Gestures navigation is not that smooth & u have to use an app.
Is there any benefits or something I'm missing?

I do it so I dont have to look at it
Its always white when i want it black and black when I want it white

Lol That's pretty funny tbh:laugh:

You have this big beautiful touch screen, why do I want to take up space on the screen (or have it appear/disappear) every time I want to navigate or go to the home screen? I use Gesture Control so that I just have to swipe left/right/up at the bottom and never have to see it...

Looks better and is really cool to have the whole screen.... navigation gestures works pretty well.

It's quite simple really, you get more screen real estate and you don't need to look at the ugly navbar.

I used to use plasmalite and it was awesome, unfortunately stopped working well under Oreo and it never got updated. Now I use XDA gestures, which is pretty OK, in some aspects better than plasmalite.

Xda gestures works great especially the split pill giving additional swipes. I have some very minor delays with it though, but I can live with it. OnePlus gestures is the best so far, but it's paid.

I tried out XDA's Navigation Gestures (paid version) but find Samsung's One Hand Operation+ more enjoyable.
From the edge screen I simply swipe left to go back, to open recents I swipe up diagonally from the same place and to go home I just press the home button.

Many thanks! I find it smoother than xda gestures, but it doesn't work in landscape mode & immersive games

Xiaomi fullscreen gesture app request.

Can anyone port our stock miui fullscreen gestures to a seperate app so we can use it on any rom we want? I really like and use those gestures as they make using a phone this big with one hand easier. Closest app I've found is T Swipe Gestures on the playstore but it isn't as fluid as stock mi gestures.

Yeah double that, would love this on other phone, but think its not as easy

Well I have used the AEX version of edge gestures. For all intents and purposes it works but it needs more tweaking to be reliable and intuitive.

I'm using Oneplus Gestures app ( come with Hide Nav Bar ) on Pie 9.0. It is not good as Miui fullscreen gestures but ok. I'm still finding the best solution

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ss.edgegestures&hl=es
Edge Gestures app can be setup exactly to mimic Miui's gestures and works fantastically.
Used on PE 8.1 and I'm now using it on PE 9.0 without any issues at all.
It's a paid app but totally worth it if you want Miui style gestures on AOSP.

It's true. Tried it myself. That was the only regret I had coming from stock. Awesome app!
It has all the features of Miui (and more). The only thing that is missing, are the visual effects.
A tip for everyone whos missing immersive mode (without the navigation bar/fullscreen mode). There is an app called "navigation gestures". There you can easily toggle the Fullscreen (it stays that way) and then delete the app and use the swipe navigations (it's a little tricky to re-enter the app "edge gestures" without the navigation bar, but possible.).
PS. I'm on PE 8.1.

Use an app called Fluid gestures. Works same as the RN5P miui full screen gestures.
Here's the link to the app-
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fb.fluid&hl=en_IN
Currently, it's in beta so it may contain some bugs!

Fluid navigation guesture pro link please

You shouldn't share paid application freely.
It's unethical and against the rules.

[GUIDE] How to use the Google Pixel navigation on the Mi A2 Lite (PixelExperience P)

Hello everybody!
I've the Unofficial PixelExperience P GSI on my Mi A2 Lite, but there was only the normal navigation bar, which we already know from the official Android 8-Stock Rom. So I searched for a possibility to use the Pixel navigation.
I found an official XDA-article about this navigation feature for the OnePlus 6, so I tried it on my Mi A2 Lite and it works!!
The only thing to do is, that you have to enable "USB-Debugging" in the developer options. And make sure that you allow the ADB-connection on your phone. Than you must run this command in ADB on your computer:
adb shell settings put secure swipe_up_to_switch_apps_enabled 1
If you did this you can close ADB and remove your phone from the computer.
If you want more information about this, here's the official article: https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6-google-pixel-gestures-android-p/
It works perfectly for me, so I think it should also works for you. I don't know if it works also for other Roms (GSIs) or the Stock Rom, but maybe somebody can test it
I hope you like my little "guide"!
- and sorry for my bad englisch

good guide sir
but if you like navigation gestures you should really check out this app 'fluid navigation gestures' in play store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fb.fluid
i think its better then Pie navigation because you can hide navigation bar and have 100% fullscreen

Are you serious?... You can go to setting, gesture and turn the new navigation bar on....

No, because I haven't this setting

There are 2 Bugs with this solution.
1. After every restart you have to enable the bar again.
2. If the NavBar Background changes from black to white you won't see the 3 buttons again which is pretty annoying.

I confirm that this is a better solution. I'm using this. The gestures are similar to MIUI. No Root, no Bootloader unlocked, only one line of code to hide the navigation bar.

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

yeah they removed that ability in Android 11

Yes even the qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 mod on the build.prop doesn't work on OnePlus 8T, I have no idea why. I used MagiskHide Props module.

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.

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.
