Is there any mod that will bring back the old recents button? I've seen some instructions, but they require using an alternate launcher. I'd like to keep the stock launcher if possible.
You can change it on Q under Settings > System > Gestures > System Navigation. If you pick 3 button you get the recents button back. I can't remember if you can change it back on P or not.

you mean get back old style nav bar with three buttons? if so yes, you can but you need also to change launcher (why keep it when it has no customizations at all though? get CPL from the store, based on pixel launcher but with many nice options)
first install another launcher, then via adb shell:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher
settings put secure system_navigation_keys_enabled 1
reboot
at this time with xposed and gravity box you can customize the navbar as much as you like

Are there any launchers that are basically clones of the pixel launcher? I feel like this should be possible without switching launchers.

While not a straight clone, Lawnchair 2 is as close as there is with additional function and not deletion making any noticeable changes. Here is the link to the XDA article. https://www.xda-developers.com/lawn...p-categorization-adaptive-brightness-theming/ See the APK Mirror link in the article to find the one reviewed, newer builds and older builds.
I have not used anything since Lawnchair 2 2.0-328-ci-beta July 21, 2018 which I used for months on a custom ROM, but will likely go back to Lawnchair from stock. I haven't got around to it since I reverted to stock/rooted Pixel 3 XL.

100% unrelated, but I never understood why Lawn Chair Launcher was called Lawn Chair until I read your post and realized it sounds like Launcher.

Nope, you will need to switch to another launcher, like Nova.

I haven't tried that one. Personally I use Nova and have been for years. It's always been stellar for me.
My main complaints with Pixel Launcher was that clock app as well as the inability to remove the Google bar at the bottom. I took people's recommendations here and tried Nova Launcher. No complaints...I even decided to pay for Nova Prime so I could enable the gestures and love the 2-tap screen off, using the home button to launch settings, and the swipe down to pull the quick settings. I haven't noticed any notable lag and it doesn't appear to use that much more memory than the Pixel launcher did.
Second Nova. I bought the full version years ago, and it's fantastic.
Well I've been using Nova for years with prime. It's my go to launcher. But lately for some reason. After a day or two. There's this Nast y stutter when I open apps. When I use pixel launcher, it's smooth like it's supposed to be. Even if I close the app and open it right after it still does it. Those things bug me..lol no oun intended. So I'm just waiting for the next update. I was gonna set it up right now without the beta. I'll report back.
Anyone know a launcher which will hide the navbar. I know lineage OS has the option to hide status and/or navbar.. I don't feel like using the adb hack to go immersive mode, would be nice if a launcher offered the option
I wonder if they'll allow you to remove it in Android P. Some things they do are so illogical I don't get it.

I have DP-3 and it is still there. Things will change with the final 9.0 release but it looks like this is here to stay.
Lol why do they do that? I don't understand
Is this still unale to be removed on android 9? I need to update but have to root it so I'm being lazy.
It's there permanently by default, though of course there are many apps that allow you to toggle immersive mode without root so if you want to hide it it's very simple to do so.
If you're like me and you think that this horizontal recent apps view is garbage, here's an idea that you may like. I downloaded an app called 'Chef's Freezer' (requires root) and freezed OnePlus launcher.
Since I'm using Nova and Fluid n.g., everything works perfect for me. I'm not sure if OnePlus gestures are tightened up together with OnePlus launcher. Haven't tested that.
Do you know any other way of getting it?
I found last night that if you use the NoLimits ROM; remove the OnePlus Launcher and pick Lawnchair launcher listed in the profile editor (i think there is nova, lawnchair, action and pixel, but dont know if they all work), you will get the vertical recents view.
Or, instead of freezing, use Magisk and QuickSwitch, and you can have any recents provider ?
I've simply installed the attached APK and I get vertical recents. It's just a version of OP launcher from Oreo.

Unless Quickswitch has changed it functionality, I believe it only gives you horizontal scrolling. This thread is specifically for how to get Vertical scrolling instead. In which case, you need to freeze or uninstall the oneplus launcher and install an older version from Oreo or use a different launcher.
If i [ disable ] Oneplus Launcher with an ADB command , when using Nova Launcher Prime in the same time as my default launcher can i get the oreo recent app view ? On my previous phone a Mate 20 pro ( emui :s ...) it worked .

Yes that should work. Just try it and you will find out, if it doesn't, you can always just reenable the Oneplus one.
It doesn't seem to work for me. The moment I set a different default launcher, using quickswitch even, the recents gesture stops working. If I set nova as default, home and back work but no recents list.
Using gestures, not nav bar.
Yeah u right ^^ .. and u know what ? It Worked !!!
So , unrooted budies ( like me ) TO DO this thing , enter the following ADB command :
pm disable-user --user 0 net.oneplus.launcher
TO REVERT :
pm enable --user 0 net.oneplus.launcher
[ Make sure you have an alternative launcher in use before ! ( in my case : Nova Launcher Prime ) ]
I use Fluid Navigation Gesture and no problem so far .
Peace .
cant use navigation gestures with OP launcher frozen
stock gestures are so much better than fluid nav gestures.

Yeah you need to use the newer EdXposed which works on Pie. Instructions for installation are in that thread, but you basically just need the Riru Core and EdXposed Magisk modules as well as the EdXposed Installer APK. The thread also lists all the modules that either work or have been updated to work with EdXposed. The majority of useful modules are supported by now.
You can configure the gestures however you see fit with Xposed Edge. It's insanely customizable. It's a perfect solution IMO and better than OEM gestures on any device.
Is there any way to get vertical recent apps on Android 10 open beta? The horizontal recent is pretty much useless as it only shows one app on the screen.
Normally you install another launcher (Apex Classic as an option) and you have it (back).

Hmm try using an alternative launcher and freezing/disabling the oneplus launchers
If freezing / disabling is what it takes, that is a pity for bon-rooters. That would really be customer unfriendly. I hate this whole gesture based thing because I use my fix gestures since 2014 when I started using Apex launcher. It would mean I need to reprogram my brains.
Freezing also breaks gestures
Perhaps soon it'll be introduced:

Here's hoping anyway!
I disabled the horizontal recents in pie.
Now after the update to 10, I don't have recents at all.
I reinstalled the oneplus Launcher. Still no recents.
Any ideas?
Is there any solution for this, the recent apps on the oneplus 7 pro is just horrible
Although the 7 pro is a brilliant phone, Oxygen isnt that great : I come from a Samsung with goodlock and i have to say that i am disappointed at the lack of options in oxygen.

Not that I know of, unfortunately. I've actually just forced myself to get used to it....
There is no vertical recents provider in Android 10.
I have looked all over the playstore for an app that can do something like this but sadly nothing.
As an alternative i am using Jina sidebar and sort the apps there by last used.
Everyone complains about samsung's UI and raves about oxygen, but now that i have it i feel very much opposite
Oneplus 7 pro hardware is fantastic certainly for the price i paid for it, but the software leaves a lot to be desired. Sadly the country i live in has no possibilities for returning your purchase, otherwise i would run back to samsung.
Come on oneplus, make some software !
Any updates on this matter ?
When hell freezes over I'll get used to this stupid horizontal app switcher
If at least I could remap that button to one of those third party recent apps, but not even that.
Once ago (android P) I could freeze the default launcher, and things went back to normal. Now, if I freeze the launcher, nothing comes up.
I think back then the default provider was replaced by an alternative provider, which I would gladly download again if I remembered the name. Something with "quick" on it.
I'm currently on Android 10 and reluctantly sticking with the pixel launcher. When I use Lawnchair or Nova I get the the recents tab as sort of an overlay over the homescreen. This happens a few times a day and the only thing I can do to get rid of it is to reboot. This is wicked annoying. Has anyone experienced this and/or know if there's a fix?

I also experience this with Nova launcher. I am really missing the clear all button. I am guessing some compatibility issue with the pixel launcher. I typically freeze or delete the stock launcher, however when I froze it I lost the ability to open the recent tab at all.

I don't use gesture navigation, rather I prefer the old-style three-button system navigation (System settings -> System -> Gestures -> System navigation -> 3-button navigation). I'm not sure this suggestion will help you but it was offered to me through the Discord support site:
After a reboot go into Nova Launcher's settings and scroll near the bottom. Click on "Set Default Launcher". The normal Android prompt asks if you want to "Use Nova Launcher as Home". Tap "Always". It will appear as if the Nova Launcher Settings window is re-drawn. Back out of Nova's settings.
Now when you tap on the square recents button you'll see your recent application list in a manner which is similar to Android 9. Even though you told Android 10 to always use Nova Launcher, after each reboot you'll need to follow this process to get the three-button navigation to work in Nova Launcher the way it traditionally has. So this isn't really a fix but a circumvention for how Android 10 and third-party launcher software work together.

Hello,
You can read Google's official statement and our statement about the issues you and anyone else using Android 10 is experiencing. Please take note that Google admits to this being broken on their end of things and that a fix will be coming in a future update to Android.
We understand that this statement was made 2 months during a beta of Android 10. However, as is stated in the below URL, this issue will remain broken even after Android 10 is released in its final form, which was September 3rd, 2019. What this means is that Google knew well ahead of time that they had no plans to fix this until much later so it's still a relative issue today.
Google's statement: https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2019/07/android-q-beta-5-update.html
Our statement: https://help.teslacoilapps.com/faq/gesture-navigation
What this means is that Nova, nor any other 3rd party launcher, can fix or change this in any way at this time. This issue is 100% on Google's end and Google is the only ones who can fix this issue. Their entire statement is below. Please note that the statement was from some time in July 2019, but it still pertains today and will continue to pertain until Google includes a fix for it in an upcoming release of Android 10.

Yeah, looks like I'm stuck with the Pixel Launcher, which is not too bad really.
I knew Android 10 gestures don't work with 3rd party launcher, but now recents is buggy as well... Almost as if they tied the recents in with the launcher.
Don't want to sound like I'm ranting, but... My Huawei had these gestures since Android Pie (EMUI 9) and it worked properly from day one. Just saying...
I'll have to wait.
For years I've been running first Nova, then SmartLauncher on all my devices. I made it a habit to at least freeze, sometimes delete the default launchers. So I also did on my OP6, and it wasn't any problem until I update from OOS 9.0.9 to 10.0.1 over the last weekend. After the (OTA) update I first re-activated Smart Launcher, then froze OnePlus launcher using Titanium, like I always did.
But then I realized that the navigation bar's "square" button had stopped working: no more recent apps pop up. The button shows the "pressure" but doesn't do anything.
I tried to add the "recents" function to some other gesture, but still no success. Rebooted several times, deleted caches through TWRP - nothing.
Next I un-froze OP launcher and activated it. That's how I got back the "recents". Then I made smart launcher my default launcher again >> recents still working.
Next I froze OP launcher again >> again no more recents
So I thought that this must be a bug of Smart Launcher. Luckily the devs today released an update (V 5.4), but that didn't help in my situation.
NExt thing I tried was installing a 3rd launcher - back to Nova. But >> exactly the same behaviour: as long as OP launcher is "there" I have access to the recents. If not, then no more recents, no matter which launcher I use.
Questions:
is anyone else seeing this?
does anyone know whether this is unique to my OP6, or to OOS 10.0.1 in general, or do other devices see the same behaviour?

Not only oneplus "feature". Other device too. My previous phone could not work gesture, when freeze stock launcher: Xiaomi Mi A2.
My issue might be related.
I updated my OnePlus 6 to OOS 10.0 stable when it was released.
However, due to the missing "fastboot boot" feature, I couldn't re-flash TWRP (and Magisk).
Now that 10.3 was released and "fastboot boot" works again, I booted TWRP, flashed it and then Magisk according to https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/how-to-flash-twrp-magisk-android-10-t3988213
Now - everything works fine - only the recent apps feature is totally broken (as in - I press the recent button, nothing happens).
I run SmartLauncher and do NOT have the OnePlus Launcher frozen/uninstalled.
I tried to install the OP Launcher 2.5.1 (to get vertical scrolling back) - didn't help.
Installed most recent OP Launcher - still, no change.
I force closed the launcher, rebooted, so far nothing helped.
Any ideas?
Kind regards

Android 10 fully integrates recents with stock launcher, so if you stop the stock launcher, recents screen won't work anymore
Are we talking about the Android Stock launcher, or the OnePlus stock launcher?
I have the latter installed, and it's neither stopped, frozen or anything like that. I even made it my default launcher for a moment, still the recents button does nothing...

Hard to say what's going wrong. From what I get recent functionality now is part of the OP launcher.
Setting your installed OP launcher the default launcher you should have recents back. If not then something must be wrong with your OOS version.
Just checked: with OOS 10.3.0 my OP launcher's version is 4.1.1.191125... and so on. Is that your version as well?

Hi Thanks for the info, as a quick update Ive found that if I dont set any launcher as a default then the recent apps works fine, but as soon as I set any to the default launcher status the recent apps menu doesnt work anymore
I could set Poco as the default but I have launched it and gone through all the permissions etc. but when I launch another launcher I actually want to use the recent apps button no longer works, so either way its no good unless I never set any app as a default launcher which is ridiculous
Not sure how I can fix it either theres not much support on XDA on this phone, although overall its a good phone just let down by Android 10.
Maybe possible that I resent the device and not let it update to Android 10 although its all set up to go :crying: in the hope that Android 9 doesnt have this affect. Is there any scripts or fixes out there for forcing the recent apps button to work overriding the permissions set?
Any help appreciated on this unusual error :fingers-crossed:
---------- Post added at 10:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:54 PM ----------
Also Im wanting to use Smart launcher 5 but the Poco looks stock ish but Ive never liked this. I have the Armor X5 so Poco is the default on installation. I know there was much issue with Oneplus 6 phones, but Im not using gestures (dont like it) I just want stock android recent apps button to work.
Ive tried over laying navigation apps but of course none will work once a default launcher is set.
