Hi all,
I have order the N4 today and I'm starting to think about it.
There is a way by a Mod or something else, to remove the softkey from the screen to use the full 4.7" screen ?
My idea is to made a mod that permit for exemple by pressing the Vol + and Vol - at the same time, to remove the softkey from the screen.
What do you think about it ?
As I'm not a dev, is there anyone that can have a look on it ?
Regards.
Haven't seen this for stock roms, but AOKP has this feature. You can adjust the size of the navbar and hide it completely. Additionally, you can add the softkeys to the power options (hold power and you can go home, back, etc.). How I set mine up is using NovaLauncher. If I swipe up on the home screen with 2 fingers, it will hide/unhide the navbar.
You can also use the PAROM with PIE, so the nav keys will be shown after a gesture, or if you don't want to flash a ROM, just use LMT.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, thank you I have just found it and I'm testing it (LMT).
This is so sexy !
is there anyway to customize what a longpress does on each of these (capacitative) buttons?
hoping to change them to
Longpress Menu - Recent Apps Menu (cut down the wear on Home Button)
Longpress Back - Quit/Close current app entirely/go to home.
Phone is rooted and Xposed Framework is installed.
Wanam does not seem to support such customisations yet
any ideas? :X
...!!!!
no one has any ideas at all? :/
Good idea, i want that, too!
I have been struggling with this issue for long time now and this is my last shot here. My phone is rooted, stock KitKat and I use Nova launcher.
The issue:
When I turn my phone on there is not navbar in the home screen. When I open some app the navbar doesn't appear like it should. However if I press power button when some app is open (phone screen goes off) and press it again (lock screen appears) and slide to open my phone then the navbar is there. So now when the navbar is there it also stays there (even in the home screen) as long as press power button in the home screen. So every time I press power button in the home screen navbar disappear and every time I press power button when some app is open I get navbar back.
If I change back to TouchWiz everything works great. I mean navbar goes off when I'm in home screen and come back when I open some app. So far I have tried to fix this with these methods:
- Tried Apex launcher: No difference to Nova
- Installed "SoftKey Enabler" from Play Store: No effect expect when I disable it I lose navbar for good
- Manually change qemu.hw.mainkeys value 0 or 1 in build.prop: No effect expect when I put value 1 I lose navbar for good
- Installed Xposed and "App settings" module. In the "App settings" I choose Nova and then tap the option "force full screen" but there is not any effect
- Installed Gravity Box and Tasker: I used this guide here. Now navbar goes off automatic when I go to home screen and come back when I open some app but if I press power button in the home screen I lose navbar. I can get navbar back only if open app and press power button again. When I get navbar back it works great as long as I press power button home screen. Also this method is little bit laggy and Opera mini browser keeps crashing when expended desktop is on.
The reason why I want to use Nova is that with Nova my phone works very fast and smooth and I can custom many things. Also Nova support to rotate home screen in landscape what TouchWiz doesn't support. I use Sliding Bluetooth Keyboard with my phone so mostly I use my phone in landscape. I would be happy even I can get solution to keep navbar there always (even in the home screen) but best solution would be navbar to automatic disappear in home screen.
I really hope that someone could help me with issue.
help!
Anyone?
I would like to enable the navbar with the softkeys but only to appear the home button. Anyone has an idea?
Hi all, ?
Is there any way to remapping the additional navigation bar button on the attachment ( a button to hide or show the navigation bar) ?
Or replace or add another button to the right ?
