Hey,
Does anyone know if it's possible to remove the on screen buttons on the nexus 4?
You can do it on the last nexus, and by using a gesture be able to get them to show up.
Kinda sucks that the nexus 4 has a 4.7inch screen, but usable size (unless watching videos) is only around 4.4inches.
On parandroid Rom you have the option to expand the screen,will serve for you!

Can use LMT which either allows you to use swiping gestures for command input (such as on screen button actions) or pie (gesture creates a half circle on side of screen with buttons). Once you have that, you can use the fullscreentoggle apk (both apps are on XDA, just Google) and remove the buttons. Works great for me for the most part. Had a few cases where LMT crashed and I had to reboot the phone due to not being able to back out of an app to restart LMT.
You need root for these as well.
How u gonna go home or go back if u don't have those buttons? Just curious?

Cyanogenmod has the ability to do it too by accessing the power menu and selecting 'Expanded Desktop'

With a gesture.
See it here:

You can use the full screen toggle app which works on stock rooted rom. It's not in the market.
Here's the apk:

'Button savior' works too, just make sure to install it before using the full screen toggle app and rebooting:silly:
Or just do it yourself by going to system/build.prop using Root Explorer and add this to the very end and save (and reboot):
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1

What is this command line use for ?
Auto hide the screen buttons ?
On parandroid pressing the power button you have the option,so its not a problem...
Is there a way to just make the buttons transparent but still usable?
Try GMD gesture control!
I'm using it since my galaxy s3.
I was searching for the same answer and tripped over this by mistake actually. There is an gesture to turn the status bar off. I was just messing around with the gestures a bit and when I used the status bar gesture suddenly the on screen buttons disappeared with the status Bar. Was really pleasantly surprised!

Hi, I have GMD but whenever I lock my home screen after unlocking the nav buttons are back and touch control doen't seem to work on 4.3. Any advice? I don't want a custom ROM althought I am rooted and using a custom Kernel.
I apologise if this has been asked before, but I couldn't find it anywhere. Does anybody know how to use gestures to navigate, for instance swiping up from the bottom to go home like on Ubuntu? I use expanded desktop mode on CM10, but it feels a little clumsy having to swipe up every time I want to use a button.

I haven't tried it myself, but I think GMD Gesture Control is pretty popular:

Search for gmd gesturecontrol or lmt launcher. Both work fine.
I use gmd and love it.

Hello,
I am looking to findout how to add camera and some other application's shortcut into the lockscreen. I selected slide screen lock but cannot find how to add a shortcut to the lock, for example if I slide it on the circle to 11 o'clock I want the camera app to be opened.
Any tip on how to enable it?
Thanks.
You need a ROM like xylon or slimbean to do those lock screen thingies. Besides when you're on the lock screen you swipe your finger from all the way from the right to the left and the camera app will open up.

So if you're using your Ouya with a mouse and keyboard the way I do, you have to rely a lot on keyboard shortcuts. But what if you can have onscreen navigation buttons to?
With an app called "full!screen" you can have a home and back button on the corners of your screen. Turn down the opacity to make the buttons transparent and you're left with what are essentially 'hotcorners.'
Home/Back are default. But you can customize which buttons you want displayed. You can also assign long-click and swipe action to the target area --though not sure how well swipe action would work for us.
This app also has it's own version of PIE control, if you like that interface. Works great.
Bonus: Works with Ouya launcher. (just checked it since my default is Nova Launcher)
Bonus 2: I had a previous tip to get notifications with a different app. You can set one of your actions in this app to show notifications. I just installed it. So not sure how well this feature will work.. and it's not exactly automatic notifications. It just allows you to pull up the notifications bar to view existing notificationss.
full!screen is free from the PlayStore.
cheers.

Better late then never. This is exactly what I was looking for until I get my button remap right

I've now had my OP6T for 2 days and I'm starting to form some opinions around it. My first OP phone, came from the last couple Pixels & Nexus phones before that (also have a PH-1). I love lots of things, but hate a few things.
The things I'd like without rooting my unlocked phone:
1. Always-on Display (even if it eats 10% of the battery life!)
2. OnePlus navbar gestures in a way that doesn't suck for Google Assistant and doesn't break some apps by hiding the "Menu" buttons (TiBu is my only example off-hand). The long-press power button assistant shortcut is terrible, imo.
3. Google Feed/Discover instead of OnePlus Shelf
4. Figure out how to enable the "shrink the app to the icon on the home screen" animation I've seen online when you go from inside an app back to the home screen. I've not seen this work once on my phone (stock launcher)
5. Wallpaper on my home screen and lock screen to align properly (it's centered on my home screen but left-justified on my lock screen).
6. Clock to not blind me when I use the fingerprint scanner at night.
7. Dimmed fingerprint scanner animations (they also need to not blind me)
8. Hacked GCam app to use the telephoto lense when zooming
9. Let me use a gesture for lockdown mode, even if the screen is off
10. Remove leading zeros in clock hours (seriously, why is this a thing?)
Is any of this possible right now? I suspect a few things are my ignorance and there rest are just legitimate wishlist items.
Edit - SOLUTIONS!!
1. not yet fixed
2. None but I'm looking into a menu/overlay that pops up when you long-press the fingerprint sensor when unlocking your phone (keep it there for a few seconds after it unlocks). If I can find a way to activate this somehow while logged in, then we may have a solution!
3. not yet fixed
4. This works with OnePlus's custom navbar gestures enabled. This does not work with Pie gestures enabled.
5. not yet fixed
6. not yet fixed
7. not yet fixed
8. not yet fixed
9. not yet fixed
10. not yet fixed

Wishlist that I'll never get on this phone:
1. Fast charging with normal USB-C chargers (whether it's USB-PD or just 15W charging, I don't care)
2. Stop screwing around with non-standard USB-C stuff (dongle & charger)
3. Smaller curve radiuses (for both the corners and the notch)
4. Volume/power button arrangement identical to the Pixels, mute switch on the left side
Things that I very much appreciate:
1. Tap to wake
2. Gestures, even with the screen off
3. Fingerprint sensor *always* works in the dark, even if it blinds me
4. Status bar icon customization
5. The Settings cog is available after a single swipe down of my notifications (for some reason Pie hides this by default until you do the double swipe)
6. Silence switch
7. Perfectly-installed screen protector
8. GCam port, complete with Night Sight, working!
Regarding item 2, I leave the standard nav keys on, and use the OnePlus Gestures app at the same time. So I have programmable gestures and the stock nav keys.

Ahh, I was hoping to gain the screen real estate by using gestures and no nav bar. That would certainly solve the problem but at that point, I'd rather use the non-ideal Pie gestures.

If you use OnePlus Gestures to disable the nav bar completely, you can set one of the gestures to summon the Assistant.

Always on display and Google discovery I'm all for.
Song identifier from Pixel on aod would be awesome.

I don't understand how to set a custom gesture that universally works to open the Assistant.
Gotta strongly agree with #10.... Also, I think you can find Google camera here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/themes/app-oneplus-6-google-camera-port-t3862849/page17

I've got gcam working, complete with night sight, but I'd like it to switch camera sensors anytime you zoom in. GCam digital zoom is inferior to the telephoto zoom that this camera has.
I highly doubt I'll ever see this.

Oh, you mean the OnePlus Gestures app and not the built-in gestures. I specifically want to use the built-in gestures (OnePlus style, not Pie style).

OnePlus Gestures app is same as built-in except that you can program your own purpose for a specific swipe gesture. Since I am right handed I programmed the left swipe to either lock the screen or summon the Assistant. All other swipe gestures are same as built-in

The last time I tried it, the various animations didn't work smoothly (like the app minimizing into the homescreen icon). Has that been fixed?

Just set it up and the animations still have the huge latency and things don't drag around with my finger. Am I doing something wrong?
1. Classic nav bar enabled
2. Installed OnePlus Gestures + the Hide Navbar app
3. Granted WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
4. Disable navbar from the Hide Navbar app
5. Enabled third-party gestures: (swipe up on sides to Back, swipe up in middle to Home, long swipe in middle to Recents)
When doing this, if I do the long swipe up in the middle, the front app doesn't move around with my finger like it does with the stock OP-style gestures (there's a ~2 second lag in some animations).
If I change step #1 to use OP-style gestures and otherwise follow the same steps, then that problem goes away but the third-party guestures don't really seem to work (long swipe on sides won't open Assistant, for example, so I believe it's just using first-party gestures still).
