I don’t like the soft keys as the home key is mistakenly pressed in place of the space in keyboard.
The stock gesture are not convenient. It does improved in the Q beta, but I will not immigrate to Q until I will make sure that all Magisk and Xposed modules are working.
I tried the excellent Xposed Edge module, but it disabled all keys, including the on\off, fingerprint & double hit and almost brake my phone.
Any recommendation for gesture module that work fine with OP7P?
Update:
Sorry, my mistake. It wasn't Xposed edge that make the strange behaviour of my phone.

I use Vivid Navigation Gestures and they always work great. You can hide the navbar with or without root as well.

I was wondering if it would be possible to disable on-screen buttons and have the fingerprint sensor used (and remapped) for home and multitask (double tap/long hold gesture), whether it be by kernel or custom rom.
On-screen buttons is probably the only thing that kept me from upgrading to m8/m9 and other phones like nexus 5 from my m7 and I would like to know if it would be possible.
The fingerprint sensor can double as home in settings without any modification.
But if you'll need back and multitask, I doubt this single button can do so much.
Would you like to try LMT launcher? You may be able to disable on screen button by simple tweak and use LMT swipe PIE and gesture instead.
I have on screen buttons to hide and I use LMT
I figured that since most apps have a back button (within the app itself) that the fingerprint sensor could be mapped for both short and long pressed, a short press for home and a long press/hold for multitasking/appswitch (or even double tap for multitasking/appswitch like I have on my m7 home button).
I have tried LMT/PIE gestures on the nexus 5 and it felt too bothersome in my opinion, though I also think that on the a9 it will be a little bit more tolerable if I have to use it for back/multitasking

Does LMT interfere wirh the original and intended functions of the fingerprint sensor at all?
Not at all

Guys, I have an idea to implement the navigation keys using the fingerprint sensor. Something like the meizu m3 note. It would give us more real estate on the screen. Can any developer try this?
1. Tap once - homebutton.
2. Tap and hold - recents.
3. swipe left - back button.
If it is possible, but devs dont have time for this. You can tell me how i can do it. i will try my best.
It's clearly kernel stuff and we don't have any kernel developpers for that.. This idea is good but we got a very low chance to get that..

you can hide nav bar with edit build.prop.
install "all in one gesture" and add edge gesture for back home and recent.
you can see my htc a9:

Thanks i was able to do it. The edge gestures require my finger to go all the way to the corner making one hand usage impossible for me. Anyway, Thanks a lot buddy. hope someone will be able to mess around with the fingerprint button and implement this.
I think Xposed Additions should work.

Then you could hide the navbar from build.prop.
Btw, your idea is available on HTC One M9+ through a custom kernel.
any update?
With All In One Gestures (available in Google Play for free) you can still have some of those gestures covered without any hassles or even having your device rooted. Hide your screen navi buttons in settings then define whatever screen gesture you prefer. No customized fingerprint button triggered actions though...only home button functionality.

I will test it this weekend.
I miss the optic sensor of my old htc desire, it was usefull for edit text and navigation.
Is it possible to do something like that with the fingerprint sensor? (like a pointer)

Both can be achieved by installing gravity box mm edition for xposed..

Works
Thanks man it really works how do i enable single click to enable or disable data ? I need to click twice to tur on/off the data any tweaks for it?
In gravitybox you can enable single-press for data mobile in quick settings.
As most new users. I keep hitting the home button. I'm using SwiftKey. I tried the other two keyboard too.
I've tried turning on auto hide nav bar - but the keyboard is the only app that DOESN'T work with it.
I thought I could just disable one click home... No such option.
Installed gravity box - also no option.
Even if i could just move home left or right 1cm of be happy.
Any help you can offer is appreciated.
Edit :spelling
I have this problem too... Caused from writing too fast :laugh::laugh:

TBH, I used to be like that too. Had even slaved multiple functions to long presses of the Nav bar buttons. I was a hardcore NavBar-ist
Then I switched to gestures, and after swearing loudly - multiple times + continuously - while acclimatising to the entire idea, now that I'm used to it I really can't think of using any phones with Nav Bars any more.
Plus you get the bonus of NEVER getting NavBar Burn-In.
(And, TBH, I'm actually finding that the OP6 way of doing it a bit more intuitive then the Pie "pill" gestures, but eyyy that's probably just me)
ROOT option
ROOT - exposed - and "Custom Navigation Bar" module. which will let you do what ever the **** you want with navbar, including layout of buttons, and their possition
Conventional methods aren't working, neither gravitybox, nor editing the build.Prop seems to do anything. Navigation keys are enabled through twrp so there has to be a method to enable it through stock ROM.
I found the answer, if you have xposed-magisk flashed, just install xposed edge, preferences, then scroll all the way down to forced enable navigation bar.
