Tutorial: Auto-hide navbar (no root needed) - Huawei Mate 10 Guides, News, & Discussion

I was looking for a way to auto hide the navbar without rooting the phone and I found this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.tsdo.elw
If you grant the app permission with adb shell, it can hide the navbar in the apps you choose.
Maybe this is useful for some.

Emui already has a hide feature built into it. I use this everyday.??

No nav bar

Without using 3rd party app you can do this directly from EMUI settings:
Settings > Smart assistance > System navigation > Navigation bar > Switch on Navigation bar.

The app that I linked auto-hides the navbar.
Is your advise doing the same?

I'm afraid that it doesn't auto hides it and you still have to click on the small arrow to hide it manually.

At least with the app that I linked, it auto hides the nav bar and that is what I wanted because I didn't want to always press a button to hide the navbar.

You got that right :good:

I wish they would add this feature to the status bar.

If you mean the notification bar...then use Nova Prime and you can hide it and swipe down to show it. :victory:

I like the stock launcher

Is there any way to have expanded desktop (hiding the notification bar) without changing launcher?

In my case, mate 10 normal, I use the FPS as navigation (home, back, recent) so I hide nav buttons and notification bar in all apps except home (where I can see notifications, battery and time) using this adb shell command (root is not necessary):
Hide navigation/notification bar on all apps but home launcher
settings put global policy_control immersive.full=apps,-com.huawei.android.launcher
Return to default behavior:
settings put global policy_control null*

Sorry for being such a newb but how do I run that command?
I downloaded an app from the play store and executed it the way I thought would work but nothing happened.

Probably you downloaded and used terminal emulator.
These commands doesn't work on terminal unless you are root.
So, to use adb shell command you need:
Download and install Minimal ADB and Fastboot - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
Enable developer options on your mate 10 (go to "Settings > System > About phone" and touch a few times over "Build Number").
Under the now visible developer options (go to "Settings > System > Developer options") you should enable USB debugging.
Open a windows command prompt and navigate to the directory where you have installed Minimal ADB and Fastboot, you should see adb.exe within this directory.
If so, type "adb devices" on your windows command prompt and hit enter.
It'll start adb daemon and no devices will be listed under "List of devices attached".
Now connect your USB cable to PC and to your Mate 10 (it is recommend to have Huawei hisuite installed to have the proper drivers).
If your pc identified your device correctly, a prompt will appear on your mate 10 asking you to allow the USB debugging connection. Hit Allow.
Now, type again "adb devices" on your windows command prompt and hit enter.
An ID should appear under "List of devices attached". If not, you should double check driver and confirm that "USB debugging" is ON in Developer options and reconnect USB cable on Mate 10.
If you see the ID, now type "adb shell" on prompt and hit Enter. You should see a prompt with a $ sign on your windows command prompt.
There you can type the commands from previous post.

Yes, "DOT" works normal.
FPS = FingerPrint Scanner, in case of mate 10 normal, I use the front FPS the same way as the "DOT".

Sorry, I mean can I have the DOT on the screen all the time (Stock behaviour) instead of having to swipe down from the top ?
I want to disable the nav and status bar due to screen burn on every device I've ever owned.

I test here and DOT stays fixed even with hidden nav and status bar.
Screen burn? Do you have the Normal or the Pro version?
Mate 10 Pro is OLED and can suffer from screen burn.
Mate 10 non PRO is LCD and is safe from screen burn.

Non Root ADB Full Immersive Mode

Hi Kings and Queens of XDA.
Since updating to Oreo, the adb command that enables full immersive mode system wide, no longer works on the homepage, but still does in apps.
Question is, does anyone know of a workaround?
This is driving me nuts. Yes I know, 1st world problem, but all the same....
Thanks in advance for any input.

Tried this, doesn't work for me. I was getting glitches whereby the screen wasn't refreshing properly when going back and forth from the apps draw and some other weird stuff.
Had to uninstall the app and still the problem wasn't solved till I did a reinstall of the system.
But thanks anyway.

Nova Launcher Prime and Nougat/Oreo Quick Settings work for me. This will only hide the status bar if you use the stock launcher.

Yeah, that's the thing, I actually like touchwiz /UI 9000.0, or whatever Sammy's calling it today.
Just want full immersive on homepages, status and navigation bars just distract from the minimalist look.
Thanks though.
you may wanna try this.

The way we used to set navigation bar's height to 0 DOES NOT work anymore!!!
Here I want to share a way that I use to remove the annoying nav bar WITHOUT ROOT.
If you are interested, you can try it. I currently have a SAMSUNG NOTE 8 UNLOCKED running Android 8.0
I discovered this method based on luisshnyder's method (https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/remove-oreo-navbar-completely-t3772217), but I did more to resolve some problems he didn't mention.
===========================================================================================================
Please read everything carefully, read sentences in full before going to the next, otherwise, you may miss some super important messages!
Please read everything carefully, read sentences in full before going to the next, otherwise, you may miss some super important messages!
Please read everything carefully, read sentences in full before going to the next, otherwise, you may miss some super important messages!
===========================================================================================================
After using my method, what's working:
1. A full screen with no navigation bar in any circumstance even in landscape mode or input method pops up.
2. Hard press working all the time, including when the phone is locked, screen off or unlocked status.
3. Screen capture working and also scrolling screen capture working (many users want this!)
4. You can swipe or other gestures to perform go back, home, recent app or many other functions.
What's not working:
The lock screen shortcuts cannot be displayed correctly under WQHD resolution.
Overall, you need the following software
1) Android 8.0 Oreo installed
2) All in one gesture (Free, in PlayStore)
3) FloatingMenu 6.1.9 (Free, but Pro Version works much better, don't use PlayStore version, use the apk attached)
4) All necessary software needed to run adb commands. You may need to learn how to install and use adb command line.
Now let's start:
0. Go back to your phone's default settings if you tried any other methods before (ignore this if you didn't).
1. Go to Seetings -> Display -> Navigation bar, UNcheck "Show and hide button".
2. Install All in one gesture.
2.1. Configure this app's settings in the way you like. I use 12 Hotspots Straight Swipe and make Bottom, Left, Center to be Recent, Home and Back.
2.2. Go to Personalization -> Edge Preference, Leave Opacity as it is, we'll deal with it later. set other scrollbars the way you like, I use the following value: Edge Sensitivity 50px, Edge Width 100%.
3.3. Go back to Personalization, make sure Auto Rotation is checked, while Behind Keyboard is UNchecked. For me, to make it better, I also Unchecked Toast Message and checked Animation.
3. Install FloatingMenu 6.1.9, DO NOT use PlayStore version, use the apk attached.
3.1. Configure your bottom bar the way you like, but make sure the Height is more than 200. You may need to buy the Pro version to use all three bottom bars.
3.2. Go to Settings, make sure you UNcheck "Reposition when IME appears", and set "Auto hide when landscape" to "Hide all".
3.3. Go to Advanced settings, make sure you UNcheck "Max window level", and check "Cover softKeyboard".
4. Plug-in your phone to a computer with adb environment, make sure USB debugging is ON. (Learn more about adb if you don't know this before operating)
5. In the command line, run: adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=apps,-com.samsung.android.app.smartcapture
6. In the command line, run: adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,-168
7. Fully test your phone, then make the bottom bar transparent to make it more beautiful.
8. For users who use WQHD resolution only: Go to Settings -> Lock screen and Security -> App shortcuts, then turn off both shortcuts.
9. Sometimes you need to reboot your devices.
=========================================================================================
If you want to undo the effect you made by the above two adb commands, here are the two "Recover Commands":
adb shell settings put global policy_control null
adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,0
=========================================================================================
Please reply below if you have any questions. I will come and answer regularly.
Thank you!

what do you mean by not working? the bottom bar didn't show up?
Hello. I have question.
If i set gestures from bottom, will be delay between two swipes?
Now I use immersive mode via adb + andromeda to hide navbar and first "back" gesture work normally but if i want do fast second swipe - (2x back in browser) it not work. It acts like showing invisible bar and second gesture work when hide it.
Maybe I'm not understanding the issue so forgive me if what i recommend doesn't help. The way i get system wide immersive mode is by using the bxActions app and linking the Bixby button to enable immersion mode when pressed twice quickly, this way i can still use Bixby if need be. The immersion mode works on games, FB, other social media and the home screen.You'll have to get it working through ADB only once then you should be good to go after that.

Try this instead of minimal adb and fastboot...https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
Edit...Just do it like Venom did. Don't type "shell" before typing every line.

I tried this last week on my Note 8, and it worked just fine. Now that I have my Note 9, I can't get it to work. All of the commands go through without error, but the color doesn't change. I did receive an OTA yesterday after setting up my Note 9, could that possibly be why this doesn't work?

After running the adb commands in the OP, my Navbar seems to be black on some apps but white on others. I thought I remembered my Note 8 navbar being black all the time after running these commands. Is your Navbar white in the xda app?
Had my navbar black on my Note 8. After time, it made the white a different shade in the area where the navbar is when I hid the navbar. I would much prefer a clear navbar except for the buttons of course, and those can be nearly clear or maybe dark grey. Anyone know the color code for clear or almost clear? TIA.
The reason Samsung doesn't give us dark or deeper colors is literally to prevent screen burn in from dark colors, I had the Black Nav bar on my N8 since back in January and these days I can see the effects beginning to show from its use on the display, Its not terrible but its there.
Just keep in mind that it'll happen when using a black nav bar eventually, I'm still going to use it though.

Do you know of a dark color to prevent this burn tend to keep my phones for a long time
It would be really nice if Samsung would allow the clear navbar to not be hidden so quickly. Or allow us to make it stay up indefinitely. It would be nice if there were an ADB script to change the timeout of the hidden/clear stock navbar option. For me, that would be the ultimate/best option.
Since I had burn-in on my Note 8 from always having a black nav bar (used the adb script), I have decided not to go with the black navbar on my note 9. I am having the navbar hidden where you have to swipe up to get it to show. Just don't want another burn-in situation. Can't stand the stock whitish colors of the navbar options. I use material_black theme on my phone, and use all dark wallpapers, etc. Last thing I want is a white/bright navbar which does not go with my dark themes at all. So unless someone comes up with a script to change the timeout of the hidden stock navbar option, I guess I will be swiping up for my navbar all the time. Not that tough, but still a PITA that is should be user customizable.

Full Immersive Mode

For those that want to take advantage of this beautiful screen and all it's glory. These commands will remove the status bar, the navigation bar, or both. They must be run using ADB. I did not create this, these commands have been around for quite a while and I have been using them as far back as the Galaxy S8.
They do the same thing as immersive mode in System UI Tuner but without having to install another app and run commands for that app to work and yes before you ask, I have used that same app on some of the recent phones I have had. These commands are just for those that want the full screen experience.
Without further ado here are the commands to be placed into ADB.
To hide the Status bar:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.status=*
To hide the Navigation bar:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=*
To hide both Status and Navigation bars:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=*
To revert:
adb shell settings put global policy_control null*
Hope Y'all enjoy it.

is there a code to disable the nav bar permanently? for instance, with the code above it basically hides the nav bar. it is still available if you swipe up. i'd like to completely disable it so it never shows and use LMT with gestures instead.

Oh my god thank you. I'm looking for the same thing. I want to remove the navigation bar entirely. I use fluid navigation gestures right now, because I absolutely hate the OnePlus navigation gestures animation you get. (Flingy shrinking square effect)It feels like it's slowing down the phone.
But when you use the fingerprint sensor with fluid gestures, for a brief moment, the system has to shoot the navigation bar back down again. it's annoying and glitchy. It feels like I can't win, there's always a stupid animation I don't want to see

unless there is something specifically different with oneplus - this build prop edit no longer works since going to Pie.
there definitely is some way to hide it because some custom roms like Resurrection Remix still remove it completely if you want.
gonna keep trying and see if i can get rid of it all together
Hi
I love to use the phone in full immersive mode, but I have problem with the keyboard. Let's say I have kb up in the browser. Somebody sends me a msg, I have the popup (which I'd also like to be able to disable btw, in case if you know a trick), and it brings back the statusbar for the time of the pop up, and that causes the reloading of the kb. Very annoying. Plus in whatsapp it breaks the ui, the top bar with the name of the contact disappears, and the type bar also covered by the kb for a few pixel widht. If the kb is not up, there's no problem. Am I the knly lucky with these issues?

you're right - this is the way to do it. when you have it turned on the keyboard doesn't come up. that combined with the adb code to hide both bars seems to work

This worked for me:
Requirements: ADB and Fastboot installed on PC or Mac.
Instructions: Type without quotations in CMD or Windows PoweShell (use "."before command in PowerShell):
"adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,-202"
---------- Post added at 09:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:30 AM ----------
And for full, semi, etc. immersive; EdExposed with GravityBox P --> Display Tweaks --> Expanded Desktop Mode settings. In addition, GravityBox adds the Expanded Desktop mode change button to the Power Menu
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=
hides it completely, been using since I got the phone, I love the impressiveness of full screen mode, only thing is the round corners sometimes partially obstruct screen elements, my previous Mi Mix was much squarer and didnt have this (minor) issue.
I only use the code for the status bar and not the one for the the nav bar or full since I use gestures. I did try it with it with full and had no issues with the buttons popping up when I swipe up or down nor did I have a y keyboard issues.

this code moved it a bit too much. any idea what number stock is? trying different values and its not working
EDIT - i kept messing with this so the keyboard was at the very bottom and the number i needed was -75
Is there an easy way to enable per app nav bar immersive mode? On stock LG Oreo, there was a toggle on the nav bar that you could enable / disable per app to show / hide the nav bar (nothing for status bar .. but I like having the status bar).
If not I think I found something to work on
Edit : So I see that Renovate Ice offers per app, but I am not going to pay for a feature that I can fix myself. I run xxx no limits, and I think I will get in touch with that dev to see if he will let me work with him to get it added in.

I cheesed out and paid for Renovate. It is nice that you can run Renovate with xxx No Limits at the same time .. the only issue being the timeout of the AOD . Way too fast with both installed.
Again, I have only had this phone since Friday, but I will be tearing through the code, and fixing all these little issues that bug the sh*t out of me without someone having to pay for it

Hi
Is anybody there uses full immersive mode on 10?
Before on 9 I had some issues, when the keyboard was active. After it was fixed. (I was on havoc).
Now as I swapped to 10 some months ago, I have the same issue. I was waiting all these months to be fixed, but still the keyboard breaks the ui. You can see in whatsapp chat, substratum, even in xda app, when you write a post.
This only happens, when I hide statbar, as navbar is always hidden, that doesn't give problem, so I did a blacklist for the statbar for tgese apps. I use system ui tuner app.
Do you know any way to fix this?
I wrote a couple of times to the forum of the rom I use, but no answer. I know, not so popular the full immersive mode, but I really like it, please share if you know a fix, thanks.
BTW @truckerdewd I recommend putting a "" around the *
The * is a wildcard character and also sometimes treated as a regex
Code:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation="*"
That should prevent headaches for anyone using shells that auto fill the *

I copied and pasted the exact commands from a web page that I have saved in my email. I have used the same exact commands all the way back to when the Galaxy S8 came out without incident. Best way to prevent the * from bring auto entered in command prompt is to not use Windows shell but to actually make windows use command prompt. Windows shell sucks and I detest it.

For those that want to take advantage of this beautiful screen and all it's glory. These commands will remove the status bar, the navigation bar, or both. They must be run using ADB. I did not create this, these commands have been around for quite a while and I have been using them as far back as the Galaxy S8.
They do the same thing as immersive mode in System UI Tuner but without having to install another app and run commands for that app to work and yes before you ask, I have used that same app on some of the recent phones I have had. These commands are just for those that want the full screen experience.
Without further ado here are the commands to be placed into ADB.
To hide the Status bar:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.status=*
To hide the Navigation bar:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=*
To hide both Status and Navigation bars:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=*
To revert:
adb shell settings put global policy_control null*
Hope Y'all enjoy it.

HIDE NAVIGATION BAR - so that we can use gestures related APPS

Hi everyone, although this is wide known to every one, i guess someone could benefit from this
To hide navbar without ROOT access.
we first need a PC , USB cable, and Phone.
PREREQUISITE STEPS:
1) download and Install ADB.
link : https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
2) Enable Developer options, then enable USB debugging.
After installing ADB:
Open command prompt, make sure usb debugging is turned on in your phone.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
STEPS TO DO.
1)To start adb service
Type adb start_server
Then authorize the phone ( a popup will appear on your phone screen - check the box and press OK)
2) Type adb devices
shows list of devices attached to the pc.
3) Type adb shell
TO HIDE NAV BAR:
After typing adb shell, it should look like: laurel_sprout:/ $
then enter : wm overscan 0,0,0,-100
it should look like - laurel_sprout:/ $ wm overscan 0,0,0,-100
what this code does is, it shifts the location of navbar down, you can notice that navbar would be shifting its position when you play around with numbers less than -100 - give a try
NOTE : for my device the value showed in RED ( -100) is negative 100, in your device it will vary, so check all possibilities. change number from -100 to -200 , for more help checkout this video which i found it on YouTube.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOH1BQFh0rI
TO SHOW NAV BAR as PREVIOUS:
laurel_sprout:/ $ wm overscan 0,0,0,0
NOTE : set the last parameter to '0', then navbar will be back.
TyPE exit. to come out of that adb shell.
4) Type adb kill_server
to stop the ADB, then disconnect your phone.
i installed Fluid Gestures from playstore as replacement to stock navbar.

LOL. .. Not having a way to navigate seems so funny
And yes Fluid Gestures rocks! IMO google really messed up the gesture navigation on android pie, it's clunky & counter-intuitive . iOS pretty much nailed it from the very beginning & Xiomi simply copied them. So MIUI has the best implementation of gesture on the Android side.
I've rooted my phone already, used systemui tuner from play store & combined it with Fluid Gestures. Works much better than default navigation system.

Thanks for this thread, really useful.
Fluid Gestures is great, agree, Google's are awful. Recommend to anyone getting vexed with that half-stop-step [email protected]!!
If I perform a factory reset, will it revert to the previous state with the navigation bar visible?
Thanks in advance.
After hiding navigation, volume controller disappeared in full-screen apps
Does this method also work with mi9t Pro?

Did you reboot afterwards?
May be a bug without a reset difficult to say.
Try settings/management of apps/apps installed/three dots at the top right/display system services/search for Nfc/services Nfc erase data and or notification no
Hide it via Shizuku and SystemUI Tuner (a both u can find on Play Store)..
This command works 100%. You have to enable USB debugging and USB debugging (Security settings) and restart the phone for it to work:
adb shell settings put secure icon_blacklist nfc

How do you set security settings?
1. Open System Settings.
2. Go to the Additional Settings section.
3. Open Developer Options.
4. Look for USB debugging and turn on the switch.
5. A warning will appear - check the box that you are aware of possible risks and press the OK button.
6. The USB debugging switch should now be blue, i.e. active.
7. Now find USB Debugging (Security Settings) and turn on the switch.
8. Read the Important Notice and click Next.
9. Read the next important information and click Next again.
10. When asked Allow Now? respond by pressing the Accept button.
11. The USB Debugging (Security Settings) switch should now be blue, i.e. active.
Type
"adb devices"
"adb shell settings put secure icon_blacklist nfc"
"adb reboot"
Command to turn icons back on:
"adb shell settings delete secure icon_blacklist"
or
"adb shell settings get secure icon_blacklist"
