I wonder if there is a way to resize the navbar. I am not talking about hiding it, only resize the original one. I already tried auto hide soft keys app and couple of others but the problem is they designed to be hidden since they overlap the page content.

That exactly what i am looking for thank you.
Only problem with resizing the navbar is,that you will need to do that every time a new rom is available.The navbars are only working with the given rom they are supposed to launch.I have found that a nice way to resize it without doing anything is to change the DPI with a program.Its will make the navbar small and you can make the icons bigger to have a similar outcome as before.
and...
...it does not work with our international version either.

The bigger icons you can make from the phone itself from what i remember,the DPI program is texDroider,only problem i saw its that the camera doesnt adjust on the new DPI while everything else i tried so far is normal.But it can be solved too with xposed framework and a mod (app settings 1.5) that can put the camera or everything else you choose in 480 DPI mode.
please some one know the way , please make it work with D802 model

I cant provide any photo,cause that was what i did before,now im with another setup.I didnt change the DPI of the navbar,(i dont know where/what to look for to do so,might be possible tho if someone knows what to look for..) i changed the DPI of the whole phone,so the navbar became small.And the icons became bigger from the Ui itself,it does have an option to do so.

I dont think that you can just change the DPI of the frameworkres.apk,from the program,and it will work just like that..I saw they got it modded in order for it to work.Not sure tho since im not familiar with these things.

I'm running MoKee44.2 ROM, the first thing I noticed is that the launcher has a small grid size. I can only fit 4 rows of icons on the home screen. Is there a way to increase the number of rows? I tried Xposed GEL Settings but it didn't help out :/
Try Xposed App Settings and set the launcher DPI to 210 for example (that's what I use) and Restart the phone.
BTW Wrong forum, should be in "Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting"

Hello! I'm running OptimusG3 and I'm on art. I would really love to know how to make my nav bar icons smaller. I tried the nav bar height mod by Xzombiepikatchu but as the name implies, it just changes the height and not the size of the soft keys. So can anybody help me (either tutorial or by building a zip for me) reducing the icon size?

Try our xposed module "android theme. Engine" and see if it helps you, the nav bar option can be found at the end of page. If you feel the icons still appear big you can let me know I can do a special size reduced version for you in my free time

From what I remember cloudyg3 uses a smaller navbar so if you don't mind switching to that rom that might be the easiest option. I can't believe that a small navbar mod doesn't exist. If your dead set on using optimusg3 then your only other option might be to pull the systemui and replace the navbar bitmaps with smaller ones
G4 stock DPI is 640, I've managed to put this down to 540 without any issues, but it's still way too high for me. I would really love 440 but loads of stuff, including stock camera and more importantly settings, force closes. I really didn't want to have to unlock the bootloader but it looks like I might have to as soon as a new ROM is available.
How did you change the DPI without unlocking the bootloader and gaining root?

Yeah you have to use like Nova or Apex if you change the stock DPI
Yep, confirmed it works with Nova. But found another issue. When it was set to 560, with the camera app in manual mode, you are unable to change the focus to full "zoomed out" or the camera app crashes.
I'm going to leave DPI for now...don;t want the camera to be affected.

I don't have that problem on 540, manual focus works fine. Why all OEMs have to be so limiting on DPI really is beyond me. It can't be that hard to make apps work on lower DPIs.

I thought it was too low! lol I'd like to see the status bar text a little bigger, like for the time, signal, LTE, etc. But without a kdz to restore from, I'm too afraid to try anything on this G4 in case anything goes wrong!

Well all I can say is bring on root so we can get Xposed going. And Viper4Android. That's the one I'm really missing more than anything. OEMs need to talk to that guy about paying him to include it in their roms.

When you changed the DPI did your app drawer button resize? I've changed my DPI down a little and no matter what value I use the drawer button doesn't resize and just looks like a big blurry blob.
I saw people mention in another thread that there were graphical issues with the stock launcher at non-stock dpi. That might be what you're seeing.

Can anyone else try this for me please? Modify your DPI and reboot. Then open the camera app, go to manual mode and select manual focus [MF] then scroll the wheel all the way up (toward the mountain icon). Let me know if the camera app force closes when you do this. it does for me. it's the only thing stopping me running a custom DPI. Thanks.

Strange - I can replicate it everytime. Oh well I'll put up with it for now.
Another issue I have is that while Nova works great with custom DPI, the lockscreen shortcut icons are all blank white icons. I assume because this is still using the stock lockscreen which doesn't like the 560 DPI. Are you seeing this?

I can also confirm this, with 560 DPI, the camera FC when i zoom all the way out but 540 DPI works fine.
I use nova, the stock launcher has a number of glitches at anything but standard DPI. And the lockscreen is LG's stuff so yeah white icons. I have a quick circle case and when I close it the analog clocks are to small and off center. The digital clocks with weather work fine (?!), funny thing is the white "ring effect" when closing the cover is way of center, even though I use the digital clock that fits. Weirdness....
When I had samsung devices in the past developers sooner or later released modified stock apps that worked with most DPIs. It's probably going to happen here to ...

No such issue at 540dpi. Manual slider can be moved all the way up/down without FC'ing.

What app was used to change the dpi? I tried it with texdroider_dpi and set the dpi to 420 but the navigation buttons shift to the left. Are the buttons centered for you on different dpi settings or only 360?
Thanks!
What nav bar and status bar software are you using? Those don't look like default at all.
navbar is centered by itself?? good news then
You most have B327 if you are om B324 NAV bar dont center itself. My statusbar is another theme i downloded. Do not use textdroider dpi. Use Root Dpi changer
Im not sure, but if you change it to DPI 360 navbar center itself. Sry bad english

Tested it just with B327. Didn't root, adb shell -> wm density 360 worked fine for me except that "folders" on desktop are distorted and ugly big looking things. Replaced EMUI with nova launcher and least at now everything is working fine. I think there is something in EMUI themes that make folders looking weird.
Flash supersu with twrp and use root dpi changer
I used Supersu beta 2.52
Did anyone install this over b324 malaysian ( international version) ? i am using it at the moment but i am afraid to brick my phone. If its working that way , ill try installing it tomorrow
You can install it over all build, its a full installation package.
It appears that the navbar centers itself only on certain dpi values. I've tested 360, 400 and 440 successfully. Stock browser doesn't work at these values but everything else seems OK. I'm on b327.

Fyi there is a substratum mod that does nav height along with a ton of other cool stuff:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=substratum.draco.systemmods
Is there a apk for this with 0 as the height? I guess i could use that as a workaround to completely hide the nav bar as that other apk that permanently hides the nav bar doesnt work on Oreo right now.
EDIT: Actually does this one work in Oreo?
