I just recently ordered a m.o.j.o, at 103 dollars, couldnt pass it up.
I am use to using ios, I have no experience with android.
So what is the easiest way for a noob to hide the stupid nav bar.
Hi!
At first you need to root the M.O.J.O. following the instructions described here.
Then I recommend the app GMD Auto Hide Soft Keys for hiding the navigation bar.
Thanks, I tried it but prefer the Fullscreen app.

I am totally new to all of this so what I need is the simplest and safest way to remove the bottom bar? I know I need to root the device so I am looking for the simplest way. Also I am looking for a gesture app that when I swipe from the bottom of the screen up it brings up the bottom bar. What I don't want is any upward swipe to bring up the bottom. If anyone has used BB tablet that is exactly what I am looking for.
This has been covered before.
Use LMT.apk for gestures or pie. Use fullscreentoggle.apk to remove the navbar.

Rooted my device and installed full screen toggle but it isn't working. I just also installed button savior and that app won't remove the navbar either. I any clues as to what is going on?

This is what I used, follow the link and instructions. You will need a root explorer to get to build.prop. however THIS IS NOT PERMANET. if you decide you want the navbar back just go back in the build.prop and delete the line that you have added.
And i dont know why the fullscreen.apk didnt work.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE LMT GESTURES OR PIE SET UP BEFOREHAND BECAUSE YOU WILL NO LONGER HAVE A NAVBAR (if you use this mod that is)

Is there a launcher that can hide the navigation bar on the home screen?

No. Why do you only want to hide it while on the home screen?
Edit: If you just want to hide it period, you can use this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1243352&d=1344188251

You need a custom rom like PA in order to do that.
Or use lmt so which is pie, so you can now hide the navigation bar buttons in expanded mode.

You can also use gmd gesture control if you want to stay on stock but quickly hide/unhide navbar using gesture, even on custom roms its faster than having to hold power button and clicking expanded desktop

This is a great way to permanantly hide navbar but keep notification bar on stock but there is 2 problems i encountered with this method, 1st prob was the 3 dots would dissapear from chrome etc and on 4.2.2 i encoutered a flicker problem quite often but it sounds like the OP wanted to just hide the bar on home screen which im not sure why lol but if thats what he wants his best bet would be gmd gesture control or custom rom with expanded desktop mode

Agreed gmd gesture looks pretty cool.

All other app hide navigation bar and notification bar. I'm developing new root app that will allow to hide just navigation bar and replace it with auto hide status bar replacement :fingers-crossed:. No system files modification and no reboot required, but root is still needed.
Try it here and let me know what you think.

I guess this is a question for anyone who my know the answer from owning the first gen and I know its going to require root and likely a custom ROM.
So in landscape has anyone seen an option to have the nav bar on the sides and not located on the bottom? I find it awkward to use the nav buttons in landscape. I guess pie controls would fix this, but I like nav bar better.

Yeah you're right, will need root or custom rom. Does lmt need root? I forget
I hid the nav bar using qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 along with lmt launcher.
But I'd like to hid the notification bar until I swipe down from the top.
Can you guys teach me how to do it?
Nova Launcher has it as an option...not sure that helps at all, just throwing it out there.

There is an app in the play store that can do that...but It's not perfect :https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gmd.immersive
I have been using this app to hide the nav bar - however with the keyboard security issues its pretty annoying the app explains this when you run it.
hopefully there could be a work around
I'm using the Navigation Gestures app from XDA, which works pretty well for me. However, I don't want to use the adb method for hiding the nav keys because I heavily rely on my phone and don't want to be out of nav keys if the app should crash and I am away on business.
The built-in way to hide navigation keys works well in almost every regard, but for whatever reason there's no option to hide the navigation keys in launchers (in my case Action Launcher). It makes no sense to me because I think the launcher is one place where you need the nav bar the least since you don't need Back and Home, only Recents is occasionally needed.
So, my question is: Does any one know a quick workaround or an additional app that allows to hide the navigation bar in launchers?
Thank you guys for any ideas!

I used this before oreo. With it you can disable it anywhere, system-wide. But it probably uses the same method as xda nav gestures to do it(adb or root). With the same risks.
