[HOW-TO] Hide Navigation Bar When Gaming - Nexus 5 General

As we all know Nexus 5 has a gorgeous looking display that's amazing to play games on, however, the big navigation bar that's always common kind of destroys the purpose of it.
One way to hide the navigation bar is by editing the build.prop file by adding a new line to it: qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
What it does is completely disable the navigation bar, so we need a new way to navigate without it. An easy way to do that is with an application called Button Savior. The app will enable hidden on screen buttons that are very responsive and will allow you to access home screen with ease while enjoying the beautiful display, now in full screen!
Here's a list of applications that work and can be used to navigate without the original navigation bar:
1. Button Savior (back button does not work)
2. Handy Soft Keys (when enabled the "Ok Google" feature does not work)
3. Pie Control (paid application, but developer offers it for free to XDA users http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2454531)

Thank you The display looks so much better without the nav bar. i look forward to GMD Gesture Control compatibility with KitKat, it's a much better alternative for Button Saviour.

I agree with you, GMD was the first app I actually tried, though as you say it does not work on Nexus 5 yet.

Hopefully LMT will be updated soon.

have you guys tried this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ca.yesoft.handysoftkeys ?? I installed this a few mins ago and it works like a charm. Everything works and its so freaking smooth.

Don't apps have to be updated to hide the softkeys?

Yea I saw this, but Handy soft keys auto hide and becomes visible when you touch the screen. I think its very nicely implemented. You gotta try to see what I mean.

Thanks for the heads up, this will do fine for now. Once Xposed is updated for 4.4 I'll use GravityBox to shrink the navbar down so it's just a sliver when in landscape. That way I still have instant access to the buttons but it doesn't take up any noticeable real estate on my screen. That's what I did with my Moto X and has proven to be the best mod I've done.

Yeah man, once we have Xposed I'll be MUCH happier with this phone. First on the agenda aside from shrinking the navbar is setting my status bar icons back to holo blue. Why google went to white is beyond me.
But back on topic. I'm using the handy soft keys app that you posted, I like it better than the one in the OP. Thanks for the recommendation.

I actually just found the PERFECT app. It's simply called Pie Control. It's fully customizable, smooth as silk, and feels like it's actually part of the ROM. It's paid, like $1.50, but worth every penny.

Nexus 7 nova launcher video

Is it possible that someone with a n7 can post a video of their nexus 7 using nova launcher, and showing the homescreen rotate? I want to see if the notifications will still work while in landscape.

How do you get nova launcher to rotate? Even after setting "Look and feel -> auto rotate", it doesn't seem to do so.

Thats exactly what I did, also make sure you didn't lock your auto rotate in your notifications (the icon with the to circle arrows with a lock icon next to the setting button and date in your notifications).

@HiddenSanctum and/or @the noan
If either of you could post full resolution shots of the home screen with a light background so I can determine the heights of the nav bar and notification bar in each orientation that would be most appreciated.
@the noan
From your landscape shot it appears the nav bar is 64px high instead of the stock/default 75px high. Did you make any adjustments to the height or did Nova make it that size?
Though I would pitch in

The forum seems to downsize attachments, but fortunately by 50% in this case so getting the pixel size was easy. :good:
The nav bar is 64px high in landscape and 75px high in portrait. I wonder if Nova can be tweaked to have more control over this. The notification bar looks to be 33px in both landscape in portrait, which I expected.
Thanks for the shots!
hope this helps. i know what you wanted but not really sure if i showed you what you wanted. sorry for the shakes i have been drinking a little and that was the best one out of like 10 tries. if you want a longer one let me know or something more specific let me know and ill get you a sober shot when i can.

Halo for all roms

So I was looking around and discovered this bad boy http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2419287 only problem is that it uses notification bar for the float if your using the modified halo))) apk. I just started messing around with this but I took someones advice with the sao launcher and it works perfectly. Going to try it with bubble launcher and see how it goes.
Edit: bubble launcher is pretty cool. I'd recommend it and if u really enjoy it I recommend donating. Bubble launcher resembles the halo apk from paranoid to an extent but slightly different.
Edit2: just tried floating notification and its just like halo after setting it up right. Only downfall is its a 30 day trial so after awhile you have to buy which I do recommend if you want the stock halo look.

If you don't mind, could you outline your installation process to get this to work?
Here was how I got it to work.
1. Install Floating Notifications and enable it in the Accesibility menu.
2. Select the box labeled "Launch Apps in Halo Mode"
3. Go to the app notifications menu and check which ones you want it to notify you for. HINT: if you want a real halo experience the rightmost icon in the app list will make the icon stay floating.
4. This is a personal preference: Go to Customize in Floating Notifications and select "Dock after a few seconds of inactivity" and then at the bottom set "Amount of the icon hidden when docked:" to 55%. If it is more than 55% then you will have trouble clicking the stack.
5. REBOOT PHONE.
Now for the Xposed part.
1. Install Xposed Framework
2. REBOOT PHONE.
3. Go into Xposed Installer and go to "Downloads" and select XHaloFloatingWindow, and then install it.
4. REBOOT PHONE.
5. Go into Xposed Installer and go into "Modules" and check the box "XHaloFloatingWindow".
6. For safe measure REBOOT PHONE. And then you're done
Lemme know if y'all need any help!
Also on the reboots it hung on the splash for a while.
Oh yeah not responsible if your device catches fire.
using this will make the sense stock messager app from working properly as you won't be able to see the "SEND" button in the halo window

No as then I would have no buttons. Sorry but I buy a big phone for screen size and taking it with buttons is silly for me, especially that there is so much space around screen on M8 left unused. I can live with such buttons on my Nexus tablet but on the phone those two buttons are extra helpful in quick navigation.

Xposed and immersive mode - expanded desktop.
Works fantastic
I got rid of my on screen buttons entirely and solely use PIE. It is fantastic. Adds more screen space and most customizing options as to what you would have on a nav bar. Plus you can set where and when it is accessed. Bought the HTC m8 with the intention of doing this from the beginning.
Sense 6 Toolbox for Xposed Framework has an option to decrease the size of the bar by like half or maybe more.
Edit: This is in the wrong section. Unless, tapatalk is acting funny. But pretty sure wrong section.

how to? Remap softkeys and home button

Hi,
Coming from the Note 3, I got pretty used to the old settings.
Can anyone guide me how to remap these buttons to the way I like them?
I want the "Recent Apps" button to bring up the menu button on single press
I already have the "Home" button initiate Google Search on long press... How do I remap so that double press "Home" to bring up "Recent apps"
Anyway to make this these settings flashable?

Found this but haven't really looked into it. I was hoping for an Xposed module or something that would make it easy to do.

Okay so the mystery to changing the note 4 buttons to be like prior buttons like the note 3 is gravity box xposed module. I also turned the light off for the soft touch to prevent seeing the recents image. Easy peezy.

Oh man. I thought that was for the soft keys. Works on hardware keys as well. Thanks!

Go to the "navigation key actions" section in gravity box. Mess around in there.

That was simple.. But did Gravity box screw with your notification drop down menu? I'm getting partial transparency on the notification dropdown when I didn't even change any settings for the status bar. Weird.
Hmmm. I don't see anything unusual in the drop down shade.

Look... Some parts are transparent and some aren't. Didn't change any settings besides softkey mapping.
Wow. That's strange. Did you try to undo what you did to see if it changes?

Ever figure this out? Have you been theming using Wanam? That could make the panels transparent also.

You can also remap using "xposed additions" module.

Not sure why it did that. All I ended up doing is changing the status background to fill and over underlay with no transparency.
Not 100% fix, but at least it doesn't look weird .
