Navigation bar shortcut - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is the ''google " icon supposed to be static? Like it doesn't change when you hover over it.

Without root it seems static and unconfigurable :-/

anyone who can post a screenshot to explain "NoEnlargeTitleBar" to me?

I found the explaination
"Click on an icon on the title bar, e.g. the battery or volume icon.
Then use the tweak "NoEnlargeTitleBar" and after soft reset click again on those icons.
Then you will see the difference."
but i still can't find the difference, could anyone post screenshot?
sorry for the stupid question.
no one knows?
Do you mean the system status screen? You can disable this in the Touchflo settings.

Sorry, but I assume it is faster to experience yourself the difference than someone posting screenshots which needs more time.
Is it so heavy to make a test? If you mark this, you will have always a info-bubble, if you tap on an element in the taskbar. Like the earlier versions of wm.
what they kindly say is that, if the NoEnlargeTitleBar is set to ticked, then when you tap the battery icon, the watch, the signal icon, the 3g icon on the status tab (the upper part of the screen) then the information will pop up with a white baloon.
if you have the option enabled it will lead you into a larger screen with all the icons so as to choose more accurately

How do I delete the default slider? The one with the camera and brightness on it.
On tool mode, long press the middle and drag to trash bin

It's in the settings, you have to select "no slider" or something like that. Then you can just add custom sliders only.

Is it possible to hide the 3 dot menu button in apps?

Now that many people have changed their navigation bars to have the menu button, will it be possible to hide the 3 dot menu button that appears in apps (for example the one that appears in chrome)?
It depends on the ROM. In xylon, in xy settings, nav bar, I have the option for menu visibility that I can change.

You need a custom rom to do it, stock does not support it. I use paranoid and the option is available. Some apps automatically hide the buttons.
I think you guys may have misunderstood me, but excuse me if I'm wrong. I do not mean the small dots that actually appear in the navigation bar itself, I mean the dots that appear inside the actual app, which sometimes actually create a whole bar for themselves.

You would have to mod the app itself and then most likely lose the ability to access menus such as the settings menu since we don't have a hard menu button to do this.

Can the navbar be transparent/opaque?

I HATE how the navbar turns to black on most apps.......it is so annoying
Samsung is like "here, have this beautiful, large, near-bezelless screen.....but lets shut a portion of the AMOLED screen off on the bottom with a HUGE BLACK BOX THAT MAY AS WELL BE A BEZEL."
Shouldn't there be an option to make it transparent like it is when you're on your home screen...or at the very worst, just shaded like when you're in Bixby?

is transparent in some apps - i guess its app dependent - but it reverses to black/white or whatever is your selected colour when typing or so
i guess it's up to the app developers to allow it in their apps

what apps is it transparent in for you...because I can't find a single app where it is still transparent (other than Bixby and the home screen)?
well out of the top of my head?
BBC weather - sounds silly but give it a try and see
Falcon pro for example.

I wish
I wouldn't even mind as much if the navbar could be white in all Google apps....but it's black.
No matter what I change, I can't get it to stay white. It basically makes the onscreen navbar and softkeys appear to be on a huge black bezel.

Immersive mode looks amazing on this phone. Haven't had any issues with any apps. Do note that some apps, like Samsung messages, have their text field all the way at the bottom - so it's a little annoying to swipe up to bring up the navigation bar since it also touches the field which brings up the keyboard. It takes a bit to get used to on certain apps.
The app i'm using to get the Immersive mode toggle is ShortCutter Quick Settings - from the play store.
Dumb question: how to activate the immersive mode?

right? I wish it were as simple as it being in the settings....but it's not.
There's another way I saw this morning, but you need to be able to use adb - and you should know how!

Exactly! what would be perfect is the opaque way it looks on the launcher screen. I've looked everywhere and tried all different things but for some reason thats just not a thing! Would be so good is Navbarapps had an option to toggle transparency

but they don't.....
Am I wrong? When I just got the S8 it seems most apps had the nav bar transparent. Even twitter, Chrome, etc.
Now it's always black. Only transparent/ opaque in some Samsung native apps.
I thought the whole point was to make it less bezel.
Any idea what's going on?

Or if you use it go to Settings - Status Bar - Icon Manager and flip it off. I hate that icon.
