As you may know, Google has remove App Ops on Android 4.4.2. This app helps you to bring it back
Root device only for now
What is App Ops
App Ops is an activity, within the Settings app, that allows users to enable or disable operations on a per-app basis. These operations cover many common scenarios identified by permissions (e.g., read contacts, write contacts, access location), though it is not a pure one-to-one mapping.
Operations blocked by App Ops are inaccessible by the affected app, though that may vary by device.
Toggle-able permissions
- Access notifications
- Alarm volume
- Audio focus
- Bluetooth volume
- Call phone
- Camera
- Draw on top
- Keep awake
- Location
- Master volume
- Media buttons
- Media volume
- Modify calendar
- Modify call log
- Modify clipboard
- Modify contacts
- Modify settings
- Notification volume
- Play audio
- Post notification
- Read calendar
- Read call log
- Read clipboard
- Read contacts
- Read SMS/MMS
- Receive SMS/MMS
- Record audio
- Ring volume
- Send SMS/MMS
- Vibrate
- Voice volume
- Write SMS/MMS

It's weird that this thread has no activity.. it's a proper mod tbh.
After clicking to "Install AppOps Root", the device reboots, but nothing seems to change. Starting the Installer again still shows the same message: "Click to install AppOps Root..."
If I click "Launch Stock App Ops", I see Settings that promptly closes.
I am rooted and running a 4.4.2 ROM.
What am I missing?
App is working great. But can you please change the Icon in the drawer? It is really hard to see with this dark grey color

Not for me.
I have run through installation twice and didn't see any errors.
I just got prompted to d/l new firmware for my note 3 today. and after hearing they took this out. I declined it! keeping an eye on this, hopefully there will be a way to bring this back for non rooted devices. as my phone is only 2 months old. and I wana wait 4-6 months to make sure its not faulty B4 I go rooting it. plus there arent enough stable ROMS for note 3 anyway. I like Wanam as its stock ish without bloat. so waiting for wanam!
Reboot after install
Im using CM11.0 and the phone reboots after I click "Install AppOps Root" but seems to work fine with the "Lauch Stock AppOps" option.
Good job. Thank you.
Works great for me running Stock 4.4.2 on Nexus 5.
Can i use this app with ART?

same for me. i can only run "Launch Stock AppOps", install method causes restart with no change. I can change permissions though, which is nice. (running codefirex ROM, android 4.3 on Oppo Find 5 - couldnt find app ops option in this ROM )
thanks developer
Awesome. I was looking for something like this.

It only installs one apk in /system/priv-app/
If you are rooted and have titanium backup or other toolbox you can easily uninstall it (titanium can uninstall system apps); second easiest option is to use ES File Explorer or other root file manager; other ways include adb shell commands (mount / rm), and finally another method that actually doesn't require root is via custom recovery that has a builtin file manager like twrp does... you would mount /system and delete the apk from /system/priv-app

Thanks have titanium backup installed, will just use that if I want to uninstall, good to know for other root apps that I might use in the future

How does this compare to the likes of XPrivacy. It appears this completely denies the permission which would cause certain apps to crash vs providing random false data.

XPrivacy is way more powerful and allows you to revoke many more permissions, but App Ops although limited, works quite well. You cannot remove network access with it, but I removed location, contacts, vibrate, camera, from some apps, and none crashed so far. I've been using App Ops since it was introduced in Jelly Bean, and still do in KitKat.

If it works, you should see a new app named "App Ops [Root]" in your app drawer. Anyway, which is your ROM?

As long as you have root access, you could use the following.
Install XPosed Framework
Install the module "Android L Navigation Bar"
Once installed, activate the module and restart
Once restarted, open the Android L Nav Bar app and chose the icon set you want.

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.
Thank You in Advance.
i wanna know how to hide it as well.

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?

i have done this and after reboot there is still no option for me to hide the navi bar
www.xda-developers.com/how-to-hide-the-navigation-bar-in-emui-5-0/amp/
That removes the Navbar but unfortunately LMT or any similar apps don't work when swiping from up the bottom of the screen, only the sides work.

That's not working unfortunately, not on my mate 8 at least even though I have EMUI 5.0
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 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.

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.

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.
