Soft navigation buttons "One button Nav" in custom ROMs - Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers

I like the Moto G5p feature "One button Nav". Is this still available on custom roms ? .
Clarification of what I am referring to - it replaces the Back:Home:Menu (triangle:circle:square)soft buttons with swipe gestures on the finger print sensor.

I would like to know that too. As far as I know, it's not available in any other custom roms.

It is available on every (or almost every) custom rom.

Thanks Washoq, How does one go about enabling it in the ones you have seen it in ?

Can confirm in nearly every ROM. Usually in the settings application under either gestures or buttons.

I have my Moto G5+ for around 3 days, today I'm getting stable with Ressurection Remix, Magisk working well, Android Pay also, and your features are there too. I just can't figure how to make 1080p 60fps recording, but everything else is flying. cheers

Knockon Certainly does. However knockoff needs additional gestures/apps setup.

So double tap to sleep doesn't work? And how to solve this problem? You know, the back button is not so comfortable to turn on and off the phone
Is the KnockON/OFF a software or hardware feature?
If its a software issue which app uses it in the system?

No knockoff doesn't work in AOSP until you setup a couple more things such as a double tap gesture in nova to activate a screen off app.

It's software, a kernel related feature even before g2, many developers created this feature for many devices (see PGM for nexus, sweep2wake or slide2wake for almost all HTC phones..and even xperia z has it...

I think G2 knock on (only on) is 50% hardware and 50% kernel
Because, when i try knock on while i cover sensor on top with my hand, knock on doesn't work.
No problem with knock off even covered sensor with my hand.
Does that mean that the ROMs and kernels have to integrate this whether on this device or another and there is no simple port for those with just root? In other words is there an app that can control this?

Control media with volume keys on Nougat?

Hey everyone,
I have finally switched over to Nougat from MM and managed to get most of the functionality (Xposed alternatives) in some shape or form on Nougat.
I am however missing a decent way of controlling media tracks using long volume buttons (Xposed allowed doing it easily).
I tried Pocket Skip Track app and it is a little buggy and does not work everytime. I also tried making a Tasker profile following some of the guides, but am unable to trigger it always (whenever the headphones are plugged in)
Does anybody have a solution for this or perhaps there is a ROM that has this feature?
Apart from that I am quite happy with the upgrade.
I'd like a solution to that problem as well.
So far only superman rom have this wonderful feature i try all apps on playstore but they are all buggy...thanks Luca to make this
migrated to Superman ROM for this feature now. For some reason it was not working straight away but eventually started working and now all is good.
This works for me

Thank you!

Miui : notifications problems. How to solve this ?

Hi,
Since i've bought this device, i'm happy with it regarding the price and the overall quality. But one thing is bothering me each day a little more : the notifications. One day i receive them all, no problem, next day i'm not informed for a new snap, next day with whatsapp, receiving Gmail notif 1h later after receiving the mail... Very annoying !!
I've tried stock Miui, EU china and EEA global... can't see any improvement, still not regular... I love Miui full gestures and still want it, custom roms have problem with gcam and whatsapp video call, i use both of them each day... i've seen custom miui rom but all in russian... not that much info... is it really safe to use them ? I'm a hard user of google products, from phone to youtube, maps, gmail, agenda, drive...
Is debloating with Saki tool a way to solve those problems ? any others ideas guys ?
I've heard about this issue so much. It seems to be a problem with MIUI and I've not seen a fix for it. I can recommend custom roms where the Gcam/Whatsapp video issue is reportedly fixed though. Pixel Experience (non-CAF version) and Lineage OS (by letsmakecakes) reported that they have fixed these issues. You can try them as I've read they have good battery life too (reportedly better than MIUI). I'm currently on Syberia and waiting for these fixes to be ported to other roms too, which i think will happen soon.
One advice if you switch to Custom roms; don't flash custom kernels. Stick with the one provided in the rom. I've had huge battery drains with evira 3.8 and 4.1.
Yes, i've just seen that the PE rom seems to have both working now !! i think i'm gonna try it or another solid rom (love AEX !!) as soon as it's confirmed it works. For the full nav gestures, any advice ? it's the thing which make me stick to Miui too : a REAL full screen with perfect getures within have to move my hand to the bottom of the phone each 15 sec

The edge gestures implemented in rom in my experience are a bit laggy but you can always use an app like ubikitouch or fluid navigation gesture to solve the problem

I've tried a few roms (AOSPX, Havoc, LOS, Bootleggers, Descendant, crDroid and now Syberia) and almost -if not- all of them had fullscreen navigation options built in. Personally, I am using "Navigation Gestures - Swipe Gesture Controls!" by XDA on play store. I paid for the app but it's cheap and works increadibly reliable. Even the free version should have more customizations than MIUI. (Don't use hide navbar option in the app, disable nav bar in the ROM settings)

I sure hope so. The fixes should be open and shared among the xda developers. I'm sure every maintainer would like to implement this fix on their next update.

Raise to wake - Custom ROM

I've noticed that the RN7 'raise to wake' option is absent on almost any custom rom I've tested yet.
Are there any that support it or is there a way to get it back (without external apps)?
Using PixelExperience at the moment

Even if it is present in some custom ROMs (I can't remember which ones exactly) it turns on the screen about 1.5 seconds after lifting the phone. So it's not instant like it is in MIUI. This feature is the sole reason I sometimes consider switching back to MIUI, but as soon as I remember what a mess MIUI notifications are, I decide to stay on AOSP.

I'm also running Pixel Experience on the Redmi Note 7, and at first I thought I'd miss the raise-to-wake feature from MIUI. However, when I saw how often my index finger would accidentally touch the fingerprint reader and unlock my phone as I picked it up, I realized that raise-to-wake is nice but unnecessary. Simply put, with a properly functioning rear-mounted fingerprint reader, you don't need raise-to-wake.

Reverse "back" and "recent" buttons on S4 mini?

Hi,
Is there any way to reverse the Back and Recent hardware buttons on the S4 mini (i9195)?
I'm currently using Lineage 17.1, so I know it's possible to enable on-screen navigation (with the back button on the left and the recent on the right) but I don't want to use on-screen buttons.
I've seen there are some apps that claim they can reverse these buttons, but it seems like overkill to install an always-on app (possibly containing ads and/or spyware) just to have these buttons reversed.
Is there no simple hack that can do this? (preferably without needing root)
Thanks for any help.

Although not an immediate solution, it may be of interest to know that your wish is possible on my S4mini Value Edition (i9195i) using an amazingly wonderful ROM call'd ColtOS. (I also have a regular original S4mini (i9195) using Lineage 17.1, but would prefer to use ColtOS if only somebody would build it.)
Interesting to know that very option is included in ColtOS! Shame the ROM is not available for the i9195, although I think I'd prefer to stick with Lineage for now anyway, just wish there was a simple solution to this buttons issue...
You can use button remaper, i used it with the stock rom and its work great!
