I don't why but my navigation gestures stopped working. Had to turn on buttons but going back to gestures does not work. Can someone please help. Ok rebooted my phone and still a no go.
The Google gestures only work from the sides. Swiping from the bottom does not work at all anymore. For both Samsung gestures and Google gestures.
Samsung tied the gestures to their dumb launcher. If you've disabled samsung launcher then you've pretty much disabled gestures.
any way to fix this from nova?

Have you tried (& succeeded) hiding the onscreen buttons and using gestures instead
I tried getting rid of the nav bar and used the pie controls, but it just feels weird , it's not instantaneous like the on screen buttons. I think gestures would be a better option, something like swipe left back, swipe right :multitasking swipe down:home
I know there's a "swipe back" mod on Xposed, but it doesn't work all that well, with a lot of apps it just sends to the homescreen and sometimes the previous screen becomes the "wallpaper" when I'm on the homescreen.
I tried too an app called "swipe home back" but it just some presets and I cannot set the way the gestures work
If you are rooted you can use LMT Launcher with Gestures and/or ISAS commands.

It won't replace Google Launcher. LMT is like a PIE advanced app.
i think u meed a diff phone for that. those soft buttons are a replacement for those phones without the 3 hard buttons.

no root required Install screen off and lock then swipe up from Home button in the option list select always for screen off .double tap wakeup swipe up sleep mode perfect for me now .
Are there alternatives? I use swipe up from home/nav bar heavily for searches/Google Now.

If you used the elemental x kernel you can choose to swipe acroos the nav bar. There is also a mod in the sense toolbox (xposed module) to use hold the back button when on the homescreen to go to sleep.

If you have something like nova launcher you can use the above program to sleep your phone using knock or swipe gestures. There is also an exposed module with swipe gesture shortcuts to turn off your phone. It's sense 6 or gravitybox I can't remember. I use insertcoins tap time to sleep since I like BlinkFeed launcher and xposed seems to marginally slow down the UI

I don't notice Nova launcher has this function Before known this trick I'm using nova now migrate To it .Tqvm
Thanks for the tip! I already had this app, but did not know you can swipe up from the homescreen to lock. I relied on the widget, but its much easier to swipe up on any screen
I was just talking to my friend about this the other day since we both had galaxy s3s and the power buttons broke around the same time. Thanks for the heads up

Thank you for this! I never use Google Now myself so this is the perfect solution for me as I wanted a way to swipe to lock the phone.
Hi guys you all are welcome. We are here sharing and learning. ?
Great thnx for sharing. Been using the HTC gesture listener but the three finger thing was quite cumbersome to use. this one seems far better
Nice app! I've noticed that you can now double tap to unlock even if you didn't pick up the phone first and it's already in your hand. Also if the phone is sitting on your desk you don't have to pick it up to unlock anymore......just double tap. Very nice indeed.
Hi I would like to know if there is a app or other thing to have full screen and use gestures to navigate , I have iPhone x to and it's so soft with those gestures.
Thanks

Use substratum mods to put navbar DPI on 0, and install Home bar gestures from play strore.

Hi I tried that's not a bad idea thanks, but I would like to have the multitasking from iPhone gestures it's more naturally
I'm too disappointed where the fingerprint scanner is seated on the Galaxy S8+, it could be placed somewhere else but not adjacent to the rear camera. Hopefully, Now galaxy S9 is not repeating this trend.
Here you go still in beta and not available for "everyone" but works great and with more fonction

all in one gestures:

I use Edge Gestures from the play store (not free) since it has more independent control over what I can do with the gestures. It does require a bit of time to get the right settings and gesture control, but once you get past that, it becomes way better than having the navigation bar.
Try "X Home Bar" from playstore .. use 0pt.navbar.apk to hide navbar ..
Use 1. Swipe up for Home 2. Swipe left, right for back
3. Double tap on home screen (nova launcher) for recent apps

But works on oreo?
I havent tried this on Oreo .. still waiting for S8+ oreo update here in Australia ..
this one is best.remove navbar and happy with Swipe navigation

I am on S8+ Oreo unrooted. The 0dp Nav does not work on Oreo. I have the immersive mode via adb and a Substratum Samsung System Mod app to completely remove the nav bars, they will not show with swipe up - gone. I use Edge Gestures for full control of swipe actions. Works great on Oreo. Try it out. All on Google Play.
Hey guys. Some users, including me, have been facing the issue that the touchscreen sensitivity becomes weak when using Vivo's Navigation gestures. But using the navbar doesn't affect sensitivity.
So I started experimenting with navigation replacements. I can confirm that the app called "Fluid Navigation" is an awesome replacement for the navigation gestures. XDA Navigation gestures is slightly incompatible with the Nex and does not allow quick settings shortcut unless you get the Pro version. But Fluid Navigation works perfect. You can find it on the Play Store.
So all you need to do is follow these steps
1, Switch to Nav buttons
2, Install the app
3, Grant accessibility permission
4, Grant Write Secure Settings through ADB (since we don't have root). The app gives instructions for this.
5, Hide the nav bar through the app
6, Customize the gestures in the app. It even allows quick settings swipe up.
Hope this helps. Enjoy guys. You will definitely feel the difference
I've had three occasions where the Swipe gestures just stop working. I have to go to setting and switch to Button and back to Swipe gestures and it starts working again.
I'm using Nova Launcher. Snapdragon.
