Move back "button" to the left side - Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers

Hi,
is there a possibility to change the back function on the display? Tried Custom Navigation Bar, but it says it is incompatible to this device because there is no next button in the compatibility test. Just want to mirror it because I am used to find "back" on the left side from my previous Xperia phones...
Maybe someone has an idea to this.

anyone created an APK for a simple back button

I don't need a lot of added functions, but I would love the ability to go "back a level in menus"
Maybe its I am new but can find no reference to the ability.
Can anyone help?

Not sure if you are running stock or some other mod, if you are rooted you can get the Button Savior app or Softkeys app. both present the standard android keys on the screen for you to use.
I will take a look at softkeys.

I ended up using Button Savior, because its got the option of having the button displayed permanently (unless you "x" it out).
You can swipe to the left on the taskbar to go back.

How can you move the softkeys from center to the far left?

i'd like my soft keys to be on the far left. it's a pain in the ass to navigate having to stretch my thumb so far to the middle.
i'm talking about home / back / recent apps button. what was asus thinking? its a 10.1 tablet.
also, would be awesome if the notification pull down bar was in a corner as well. anyway this is possible?

You can't
Well you can if you unlock and flash a stock based 4.3 rom and then use xposed with phab7

I used your method for unlocking and I installed xposed, but doesn't seem like anything happens when I switch settings in phab7.
Anu suggestions?
Have you enabled phab7 as a module in Xposed?

Yes
enable xposed
reboot
goto xposed modules
enable phab7
reboot
goto exposed phab 7
choose tabletui
Thank you, I didn't realize I needed to enable after installing
Sorry to bug you but how about you how about the apps button lol

Install a launcher like APEX or NOva and then you can move it where ever you want. It's locked on the stock launcher.
Hey thanks a lot. Appreciate what you do for the community.

How to add soft keys/on screen keys?

So usually I can add qumu.hw.mainkeys=0 on the build prop, or download softkey enabler app and it usually adds soft keys after a reboot. But now if I do EITHER of those, it just says system ui crashed and I gotta press ok and then a second later it pops up again. and again.
I added soft keys on my S4, S5 and my M7 before and I never ran into this. Does anyone else have any solutions? I don't really like those pop up types, I like the stock android soft keys.
whats wrong with the soft keys that are already on the phone?
Gravity box will add the soft keys and give you some customization options as well

I thought Gravity Box was AOSP only?
I am on the note 3, rooted TW rom but have been running gravity box and wanam for months. Many are using it.

I installed it and can't even enable it. It says it cannot open it on the Note 4
That's not good news. I was planning on upgrading to the note 4 soon. Developer may have to update the module. Sorry it didn't work.

I also tried, wouldn't work
I tried on Dynamic Kat and Hyperdrive roms and still had the same problem =( I actually like using soft keys because I feel like the hard keys are harder to reach when using one hand.

Did you come up with a solution to enable softkeys? I'm in the same camp.
What about the built-in softkeys? Settings -> One-handed operation -> Side key panel?

They work but just want them on the button. That's what I'm used to.

I found GMD Auto Hide Soft Keys but I noticed a drop in my battery life ever since I started using it.
It can auto hide or keep it there forever but it does get in a way with some apps like when you try to text or type it's right on top of the space bar

Thanks for the suggestion. It is now showing Android 5.0 symbols after I unistalled the app. Weird. I'll show you a screenshot.
I could not figure out how to enable soft keys and after uninstaling app the Android 5.0 soft keys showed up. Really weird.

Is it working? and what launcher are you using?
I would love this too. I like having a little bit of bezel at the bottom that I can hold (without hitting buttons), but the Note's capacitive keys are just in the way. I don't mind the Home button and would leave that enabled (maybe bound to something else if possible). Another reason is that I'm left-handed and HATE the "back" button being on the right side instead of left (which I'm used to since all of my previous devices were set up like this -- Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4, Nexus 7 (2012), Moto X (2013), Nexus 7 (v2), and LG G2 w/modded keys).
Lastly, I really like adding additional navring options besides the built-in Google Now shortcut. There must be a way to get the default Android on screen keys with root and xposed, right? I hope someone figures it out!

Maybe install it again and lay with the settings, it took me awhile to get to what I really wanted. The descriptions were not that great lol. Took a lot of trial and error's

Turn of hardware buttons on Droid Turbo?

Does anyone know how I can turn off the hardware buttons on the Droid Turbo? I want to completely disable them so I can use the UI buttons on the Bliss ROM I am currently running. If anyone knows please share with me how you do it. Thank you!!

It would be a ROM setting. In settings search for navigation buttons? That's what it's called in another ROM, Resurrection Remix. Make sure you have the software buttons turned on before you turn off your hardware (capacative) buttons, otherwise you will have nothing.
Also, you would probably get a better answer in the ROM thread itself.

I tried that but there's no option in there. Just for the on screen buttons.

What I'm trying to do is turn off the actual hardware buttons so that I can turn on the on screen buttons and use those instead.

Try asking in the ROM thread. The dev can tell you if it's possible. Like this question and answer?
carlos67 said:
Quick question.
I'm seriously thinking of trying this rom but need to know if the 3 capacitive buttons can be disabled and an on-screen lollipop style back/home/recents software nav bar put in its place?
If not possible in the rom, what about an exposed module that does this?
Would appreciate any helpful responses

Yes it have all that, setting/configurations/buttons. But make sure you enable Nav bar buttons before disable hardware keys.

Even if you turn them off, you will still be able to "see" them as the white paint outlines them. You will not reclaim that screen space. They are permanently there, you will just have software keys to use instead.
Hide the hardware keys?
https://www.reddit.com/r/droidturbo/comments/3v89fu/hide_the_hardware_keys/
No. The outlines are painted behind the glass. If your unlocked and running a custom ROM, you can disable the capacitive keys, but they will still be visible because there physically outlined behind the glass.

Aside from a front glass skin (if there are any that mask the buttons) I don't think there's any easy and appealing way to "make them disappear." It might be possible to disassemble the front glass and black them out, but I think that's too risky of a procedure just to hide them.

Question Help, navigation bar and font fix

Well in recent new update in redmi note 10 Pro Max. They made the navigation bar bigger than before and it is taking more space than before so I want to make the navigation bar smaller is there anyway if there is please tell me. Also another problem is the font before update every every word in my phone would be displayed as applied font but now in Chrome or Gmail the font is displayed as default font.
Gesture navigation is so much better, make yourself use it for a week to get used to it and you'll never go back to buttons.

I know it's good but I could use the buttons for you know like shortcuts like if I hold the recent button it would take a screenshot or if I hold down the back button it would stop the app forcefully so in that way I prefer buttons but I have used this navigation gesture for a week and it is good I guess but I would still prefer button, well it's my personal opinion I don't want to force my opinions on to anyone.

With long gesture left or right you can also kill app or something else.
