Hi,
I'm the developer of "Cygery Custom NavBar". This app allows you to overlay the navigation bar with launcher icons, shortcuts and widgets. Additionally, navigation and volume control buttons can be added. It's the first and (currently) only app which does this without requiring root. Android 4.1-4.3 is supported, Android 4.4 and later isn't because some internal behavior was changed which makes it impossible to overlay the navigation bar anymore.
Please note: Android 4.4 and later aren't and won't be supported!
This thread is intented for questions, feedback, bug reports, feature requests, etc. Feel free to post!
The app is available on Google Play (incl. a free 7-day trial version). As it's a commercial app I can't link to it directly.
Cheers;
cygery

I got a crash report which seems to be related to the use of Xposed. Please contact me if you are using this app with Xposed and experience any issues.
Can you please post the app in this forum for people who cannot download it from Playstore?? is there anyway to enable it for purchase at Qatar?

I just saw your post (somehow didn't receive a notification mail about it). The app is available in Qatar since some time.

Thank you cygery.. Yeah I had contacted you through email and made the purchase.. WONDERDFULL APP.. Thank you for developing it.
Since this question comes up regularly: Please note that Android 4.4 and later won't be supported. Starting with Android 4.4 it is impossible to overlay the navigation bar anymore. There's no reason to believe that this behavior will ever be changed back.
This app is now available in Brazil.
This app is now available in Chile.

Hi Cigery! And what about using Xposed to do it? Would it be possible then?

I don't know much about Xposed or if it would be helpful. However, I don't think it could change the relevant behavior in Android. Anyway, this app was designed for non-rooted device. I guess there exist alternatives using root which, e.g., hide the system navigation and replace it with a custom bar.
If you know of anyone please let me know ?
hi,
It would be VERY nice to have this on Lollipop! Any chance this will ever work?

The "behavior" which allowed user apps to overlay the navigation bar was changed in Android 4.4 such that it isn't possible anymore to do so. I'm not aware of an alternative method.

Hmm, ok. Maybe as menitioned before: use xposed framework. You wrote that apps with root exist to replace the standard navbar but i never seen such app

I just use Nova Launcher with Moonshine icon pack and the Android L nav bar. Also, the minimal clock on UCCW. Although some of this requires root, root is really easy for the verizon LG g3. I also use a 2k wallpaper and g3 tweaksbox.

Dang I really wish I could use these themes! Verizon must of removed that functionality. Not themes section under home screen.
Are You sure about that ? For me, on my int 855 this option looks like part of LG soft, even without root or extra launchers you should be able to switch between Home and Easy home. Then, if you install more, you have more to choose from . Kinda strange if you don't see this option. Settings--Home screen---Select Home.......right ?

Yesterday, AmirZ posted a Rootless Pixel Launcher on Reddit that manages to bring the full Pixel Launcher experience with Google Now tab to all phones without root required.
https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/6gn8f9/rootless_pixel_launcher_port/
Like all other ports of the Pixel Launcher, it did not work on Knox (Secure Folder) enabled phones: App crashed, app drawer was blank. However, the source code was available as Android Studio project and I could debug the code ... and managed to add two lines that made it work on my S8.
You got no idea how happy I am right now.
I'm sure AmirZ will add the two lines to the project together with other bug fixes within the next few days. If you don't wanna wait, try my version, available at
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1wrGoe5e9-EWlF5SVUzMDFoOHM
Update: AmirZ added this fix in version 1.3. Head over to Reddit to download the apk / sources.
https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/6gn8f9/rootless_pixel_launcher_port/
Make sure you uninstall this and any other Pixel launchers before installing the Launcher3.
Awesome ! was looking for this for so long ! Thank you !
If you can do it, I have two requests.
1. Could you change the accents to pixel blue ? (The slider on the right when you open app drawer)
2. Can the background on the app launcher be changed to dark / black ? I think that just works and looks better on the S8
The color was already changed in the version 1.2 on Reddit (but does not include the Knox compatibility yet). I'd hope that 1.3 does include my bug fix.
Someone really need to keep this updated, implement Android O sources, etc. This will not be me though since I have no clue what powerful magic AmirZ used to get the pixel launcher / google now working in non root. I'm terribly unqualified to do any real development on that ^^

Yes. I'm fairly certain this all is based on AmirZ's hack and we will see many more launchers adding the Now pane.

The latest git versions by AmirZ do work with Knox. You need to make sure to remove all previously installed Pixel launchers (select another launcher as standard before uninstalling all of them) and then install
https://github.com/amirzaidi/Launcher3/releases/tag/Pixel-v1.4
If it force closes in launch, just delete all cache and app data for Launcher3 from the settings. It should work. My Knox fix was implemented in version 1.3.

Awesome appreciate the update! I don't think i tried the latest thanks
thanks for that, it runs very smooth and no issues. the only thing I'd like is to be able to make the icons a bit smaller. Is that possible at all?
Dude this is awesome thank you!
There is a bug (or feature) that prevents proper AMOLED power savings on the top of the launcher. You will notice that while applying any background which is black up top (which AMOLED should turn off) there is still active pixels (in a dark room you can see this as a thin bar on top of the screen - kind of like light bleed). I have notified AmirZ of the issue and hopefully he can fix it.
if this launcher can accept icon packs then it would be perfect, so I can theme over the stock touchwiz icons!

Third party themes will have trial alone as they are not authorized by samsung. So you need to disable the themestore within 5mins to keep the theme.
You dont need elm if you have package disabler app.. if you still want to use the inbuilt one . Pm me. I try to help you.
The app looks pretty slick. Unfortunately I couldn't get the theme to apply. I granted admin and deactivated the theme store, however there's no effect after I build and install the theme. Is there anything I'm missing?

This is the modified version of knox app control sample.
Figured we could get this going, seeing as only the fingerprint substratum theme is listed here.
What themes are you using with the OP7P successfully?
Also, are there any that change some system UI elements, like center clock for example?
Pitch Black. Works perfectly for me except for Clock and Messages (blacked out but no accent colour seems to load).
I had tried VaLeRie which usually works with OOS but it just seemed to keep restarting the systemui, will wait to see if the dev confirms updated for OP7Pro, more difficult now that G+ got the Thanos snap.
RENOVATE ICE will let you move the clock as well as other modifications.
You all should check out Swift Installer on the Play Store. It's a Substratum theme, but with a lot more options.
