I was able to permanently fix the lack of navigation gestures with third party launchers on the Axon 10 Pro. Simply download and use the app called Vivid Navigation Gestures from the play store (formerly know as OnePlus Gestures) here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ivianuu.oneplusgestures
You do NOT need root. You will need to follow the instructions and use ADB to add one line of code. I had this up and running in less than 5 minutes. It's fantastic. Best part is that it DOES continue working after reboot.

Hello, I would to request more customizations for the Oneplus 6 gestures to Oneplus. Question is if it has some kind of support here (maybe the devs can look into it).
I went from soft buttons (Oneplus One) to the op6 gestures but what am I missing is:
custom mapping swipe up/and hold for the left and right
So you can map search, menu, assistant, last app and so on.
What do you think?
Use gesture controls next level navigation for the play store. It much better for gestures I've been using since I had my 5T it has various customization options.
I can also recommend the Gesture Controls App, but it can do the most important things only with root. Also it would be nice to have customization in the stock gestures since they in my opinion are a lot smoother and work a lot better than the ones in the Gesture Controls app
oneplusgestures app does what you're looking for.

it does but stops working after a while and also I do miss the option for: menu, in app search, force close active app
so not the way for me
One of the major talking point is the lack of Android 10 gesture support for various custom launchers. Some launchers might have incorporated these gestures on their own (but they are quite few in numbers). Here, i would be giving you an ADB command through which you could make these gestures compatible with any custom launcher on any Android 10 device (including our very own Moto One Action).
Code:
adb shell cmd overlay enable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.gestural
After executing the above code, the Gesture navigation will still be grayed out as before, but will have been selected and enabled. Moreover, hack by no means is perfect, and occasional gesture issues might happen every now and then (as far as my opinion goes, I am ready to forego these small hiccups in return of something great, but the choice is ultimately yours).

A10s gestures already support 3rd party launchers since 11.2019. I was also shocked to find out they're still getting disabled after I updated to 10. I guess Moto software team haven't updated their base yet, Wich is absurd. Or they're doing this intentionally in order to make users use their own gestures... ?

It's on Google, not on Motorola. Remember Moto One Action is an Android one device

Currently, Android 10 Gesture Navigation is incompatible with 3rd party launchers on non Pixel devices. I read that it checks to see if the launcher is your default system launcher before allowing Gesture Navigation. Would the following process be an effective workaround and make Gesture Navigation compatible with a launcher of my choosing?
- Root phone
- Install 3rd party launcher
- Set 3rd party launcher as system app and change permissions accordingly
- Remove stock launcher and it's backup APKs
- Restart device
I have an ROG phone 2 with Android 10, but I really don't like the stock launcher and I also don't like having the navbar on screen.

Currently and exactly from November 2019 this isn't true. Google have updated their repos even the one for aosp to support 3rd party launchers.
It's a matter of choice by the manufacturer company to update their base in order to support it.
Pixel launcher has the annoying search bar on its home screen which is irremovable.
Nova launcher is arguably the best for customizability. But there's something that ticks me off when using Nova. Whenever you open recent apps the transition isn't smooth as with Pixel. It has a small hiccup.
(See https://imgur.com/a/lewvZu3 for what I mean)
I tried almost every launcher on the market and they all had the same problem.
So I contacted Nova's development team to give them my feedback. This is what they had to say:
"Hello,
PLEASE READ THIS RESPONSE IN FULL!
You can read Google's official statement and our statement about the issues you and anyone else using Android 10 and Android 11 are 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(Stated March 2019.).
However, it's now well over a year later and there are still many issues with full system gestures and 3rd party launchers on both Android and Android 11. These issues will remain for the foreseeable future as Google has no plans to completely fix their full system gestures.
This includes things such as the CLOSE ALL/CLEAR ALL button not showing up when you access the Recent Apps screen. As well as a delay of being able to tap on app icons when returning to the home screen from another app, from viewing the Recent Apps screen or anything similar.
These problems will still be there when Android 11 is released in its final form as Google has made it clear it's not going to fix/change things any time soon.
Please understand, there is absolutely NOTHING WE CAN DO TO FIX OR CHANGE THIS IN ANY WAY! Contact Google or your device OEM directly with these issues as contacting any launcher developer isn't the correct thing to do and isn't going to accomplish anything.
SAMSUNG USERS: Samsung has enabled full system gestures to be enabled within 3rd party launchers with their One UI 2.5 update. This means you can enable those gestures, but things are still very broken, especially when it comes to animations and how smooth the gestures work. This is NOT something Nova, or any other 3rd party launcher can fix. Only Google can fix it.
In the end, none of this is something we(Nova) can fix or change in any way and neither can any other 3rd party launcher for that matter. It is ultimately up to Google and only Google to fix full system gestures completely. Though they have made it clear that full system gestures will remain broken even with the final release of Android 11 and likely well beyond that.
We understand that this statement was made during a beta version of Android 10. However, as is stated in the below URL, this issue will remain broken even after Android 10, and now Android 11, is released in its final form. 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
As of the December 2019 Security Patch from Google, you can now enable full system gestures within 3rd party launchers. However, please note, there are still a lot of issues with the gesture system such as animations not working, Close All button not showing up and several other things. This is not something any launcher developer, including us here at Nova, can fix or change in any way.
This is still all up to Google to fix at some point in the future and to get things working 100% the way everyone expects them to be.
If you experience any issues at all while using full system gestures, it is highly suggested that you contact Google directly and/or file bug reports with them directly so that your voice can be heard by them directly.
ACTION LAUNCHER'S FALSE CLAIMS: Action Launcher made an announcement back in late December 2019, is actually misleading and 100% incorrect. They are referring to the back swipe edit zones and similar stuff. Full system gestures are completely controlled by Android and not something a launcher can just suddenly add support for or change in any way.
If you actually try to use the full system gestures in Action Launcher, you'll see they are still as broken as they have been and will remain that way until Google fixes things themselves."
Edit: uploaded an animated gif of the example but XDA converted it to a still image, so I had to upload on imgur.
I'm using Nova as well. Have you also had an issue when swiping up and holding to access recent apps, the apps fill the entire screen instead of showing the smaller preview window?

Just updated to A11 beta and the bugs are gone. It's working smoothly now.
The gestures work fine if you're willing to root and use QuickSwitch with a supported launcher. (No third party launchers support A11 with QuickSwitch yet though)

Search bar can be removed and more options.
See this thread
Just make sure you get the right files for A10, I have not tested on A11 yet.

Awesome! Thanks!
Hello peeps,
I found a way to hide the navigation bar on OnePlus 8T. In theory it should work for other devices too.
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Root using Magisk
3. Install Riru-LSposed
4. Follow steps to activate LSposed.
5. From LSposed Manager, go to repository and download Gravity Box for Android R. Reboot.
6. Setup gesture navigation through custom app like FNG.
6. Open Gravity Box app and in navigation settings enable master switch and uncheck enable navigation bar option.
7. Reboot and enjoy!
Tested on DotOS and OnePlus 8T KB2005. If others can confirm this method with other roms, I can add a list in this post.
Cheers!

Yeah it works thanks.
There are modules available like gvisual and full-screen. Is this different?

GVisual and others provide system gesture navigation in full screen mode (hiding the keyboard bottom bar).
Above method helps you hide 3 button navigation bar and use 3rd party navigation apps like FNG, which do not work on Android 11 by default. I read somewhere on Xda that on oneplus 8t it was not possible to do this even after root, so I just wanted to post this and let other people know.
Had this phone for a week now, and the Navagation gestures refuse to work, I can turn them on and use it for about 2-3 actions, then it automatically turns off and I have no way of using back, home, recents. I do turn off the bottom bar, but I tried with the bottom bar on and it is in the same boat. I am hoping it will get fixed in an update, how many Android version upgrades are black shark 4 supported for and how many years of security patches?
Thank you
If you use custom launcher like Nova or similar, navigation gestures will not work. You need to use stock launcher/home app so it can work properly.
Thank you for the advice and it does indeed fix the stock Navagation gestures. But I have to give up my preferred launcher, my icon packs, my live wallpaper. It redirects everything to the theme store I neither want to use nor pay for. Is it like this for all XiaoMi phones? It is almost like Samsung with the massive bloatware that trying to get you to use their exclusive services.
But Navagation gestures work, only with stock home app.
It is same on every android 11 and 12 device. Theme store is completely free, i didn't find single item that ask for money.
