How Do I Hide the Software Keys?

I want to use PIE control instead. Is there some kind of build.prop mod or something that hides the nav bar?
Might be worth going for a custom ROM that has PIE. All you then have to do is switch to Expanded Desktop and there you have it!?
You'll find many ROMs that do PIE. There is also a launcher that does that, it's called LMT Launcher. You will find it here on XDA.

I don't want to flash a whole new ROM. I just want the PIE control and nav bar removal. PIE control has a Play Store app so I don't need to flash that but I know there has to be some kind of simple mod to remove the nav bar.
Ah, ok, didn't realize there was an app for it.
How about this:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1780970

It seems to force tablet UI, but the nav bar still remains. I know there was a way to make the nav bar appear for the Note 2 so there has to be a way to hide the nav bar for the Nexus 7.
download LMT launcher, it's been around longer than PIE has and doesn't require any specific rom...

you can go into google playstore and search for PieControl Pro. There is a free version and a pro version for $1.99

So can this hide the nav bar?
Flash ParanoidAndroid ROM it has built in PIE navigation in Quick Settings so when you tap on it your navigation bar hides and PIE control activates and if you are worried about Tablet UI you can turn it off any time you want. =)

are you on the stock rom? not sure if LMT can hide the navigation menu. you may as well just flash any other rom since almost every other rom lets you hide the navigation menu anyways. LMT is also way more customizable than PIE.
At the end of build prop add
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
Save and exit, I don't believe it works on stock rom though but I could be wrong.
I use this on roms that don't have it built in navbar hide built in, and I use lmt launcher, because I prefer it to pie.

[Q] Pie menu as a standalone app

Hi everyone,
I'm back to stock ROM after trying a bunch of other ROMs out there. I pretty much love pie menu and wanted to know if I can install it on my stock ROM. (I know there is an app called piecontrol but it doesn't have the same interface as the one in paranoid android or cyanogenmod.)
In my opinion LMT launcher is lot better than Pie control app. You can give it a shot. And even it's called a launcher its works beside your default launcher.

LMT Launcher Question

I feel like this is possible but when I look it up I don't really get an answer, can I make it so whenever I activate expand desktop it is the only time LMT launcher will be used? I don't want it when I have the nav keys up but when I do expand fullscreen in games and stuff I want it to be activated automatically, is this possible?
cm 10.2 nightlies enables you to run pie controls when expandable desktop is enabled that's far as i know the only way

[Q] Full Screen Mod?? (Pie Controls)

I know certain ROMs come with extended desktop/pie controls but is there a flashable mod anywhere with that feature? If so, can something like that be ported to the Nexus 10 for use on the Project Flaming Monkey ROM? I wish PFM and ParanoidAndroid merged: that ROM would be perfect.
Try this. I've been using it on my N10 for a couple of weeks & it works fine. I haven't tried a custom ROM yet so not sure how it compares to the pie controls in those. The developer says he'll be adding more functionality soon. He also made it available free to xda members here. It's a couple bucks in the Play Store.

I'm using Purity ROM with Trinity Kernel. (see my signature for links). Flash the free LMT zip which has adds PIE plus more desktop extensions. I also bought Smart Statusbar+ for an auto hide statusbar.

Smart Statusbar: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kiumiu.ca.statusbar.free&hl=en
An alternative is Full!screen which I used to use on rooted stock along with LMT.

Have fun.
I've used LMT in the past, when I've tried other ROMs. I always find myself back using AOKP ribbons. For whatever reason I dig it. LMT has a ton of functionality though. Also, if you use nova launcher, it can hide the status bar. I like to hide my status bar and the nav bar and use the bottom ribbon for nav controls.
I use Full!Screen and like it very much.
I just wish it wouldn't constantly pop up screen notifications saying that it was granted super user privileges, even when it's not in use.

I think you turn that off in SuperSU or what ever you are using. That was not an issue when I used full!screen.

Thank you!
I had no idea what SuperSU could do until you mentioned this.

Best way to enable auto-hide navbar?

At the moment I have auto-hide navbar setup using 2 Xposed modules.
The first is "LG Pie Support" this disabled the navbar and the navring (which nothing else I find disables the navring).
The second is Ultimate Dynamic Navbar to bring back the Navbar which is customisable and auto-hides.
Now what really annoys me about LG Pie Support, it makes applications not show the "3 dot menu" so I get around this by
adding settings to the back-button in long press but this is not ideal.
I was wondering what other people do to achieve the same results? and is there an all-in-one option?
Thanks
BTW: Im running Stock Kitkat, thinking about switching to CloudyFlex though
Gravity box and g2 tweaks will have truw pie
