[Q] Best solution to remove bottom bar?

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)

[Q][KK-Stock] Disable Navigation and enable Pie Control [SOLVED]

Does anybody know how to get rid of this "Slide Up Menu" (Navigation Bar Ring)?
I want to use my LMT pie control, but this thing mapped bottom area for self. I cannot find any settings for it and I have no idea from which app it comes from yet.
(Please ignore that black rectangle at then bottom of screenshot, it is not related to it)
Edit: I solved it by creating own Xposed mod.

I have another question regarding this. Sorry for hijacking.
Is it possible to add your own shortcuts to this Slide up? And remove Google?
Thank you!

It's probably possible, it would just take some work. Check out Slide Launcher, it does what you want.

Well, looks like there is no setting for it. At least nobody replied.
I begin to look into source code and I will do Xposed mod for it. Begin with disable it. Manage shortcuts should be possible too.

Have you guys tried this out?

Don't think that would work, because it doesn't disable ring but just replaces it with app that does nothing. This annoying ring is only reason why I don't move to stock kitkat roms.. Can't use pie.

Word.
We really need a fix for this.

Progress Update
I made Xposed mod and get rid of this navigation ring (search ring) now.
However LMT still not works, at least not everytime. I got few times luck, but mostly no reaction.
What do you guys using for Pie control? LMT as well?

Well I managed to disable ring with g2 tweakbox xposed. But it was same as you describe, pie works rarely from bottom screen border. Tried Lmt and pie in gravity box.

Success !!!!
Finally I made it work! :victory:
Now I have:
- hidden navigation bar
- disabled navigation ring
- LMT works perfect from the bottom on 100%
I made own Xposed mod to fix that.
I guess I don't need to ask if you guys want it as well, right?
Please wait one more day. I will clean it up and release new mod for you.

Xposed mod released to Xposed Repository. I created new thread in development section as well: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2689890

The immersive mode works well but is there a way to only hide the navigation bar?
Some of the other apps that I tried disables other apps that help with navigation like All in one gesture, etc when the navigation bar is hidden.
Here is the link for those who need it
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.leedroid.shortcutter&hl=en
Edit: Spoke too early. Press and hold gives you the options.
This is a really good app.
Going to purchase it just to show the support.
This is one of the reasons I always rooted phones.. Next is to have GMD gestures but there are alternatives that work ok.

What's the immersive mode like? Can anyone post a screenshot please?

Immersive mode is the one that does not have task bar or navigation bar.
All apps work in total full screen.

Just what the doctor ordered. Good stuff, went premium. Thanks!

If u swipe up from the lower edge of the screen it will re appear for a couple of seconds and then goes away.
I have not used the navigation bar for the last 3 to 4 years.. Felt like a wasted space... Always used Gmd gesture control app. But that app is only for rooted devices.
For now I am using all in one gestures. Works quite well.
The screen shot shows the gestures that I have configured

Why not turn on immersive mode using adb? No apps required.

Guide: Getting rid of the navigation bar with out compromising usabilty!

Hey guys, I've found a awsome way to use the s8 without navbar at all! You will have swipe gesture from the bottom of the screen in the same order like there's a navbar with recent, home and back button.
all you need is to install a app called swipe navigation from the play store and give it accessibilty permission install the navbar Disabler (I I'll give the link) and the swipe navigation unlocker on the play store(costs money but definatly worth it).
config the app as you like then just restart your phone.
heres a video for demonstration.

Yep, works on rooted and unrooted devices

Im using it. Is it me or response time is slower than pressing nav buttons?

If i want to get the navbar back i just delete the app or what?

You can use LMT Launcher as well. I've been using it for years and it always works great. Swipe up from the bottom and you have your buttons. You can customize it however you want to. Here's a screenshot of how I have mine set up.

Yes, you uninstall the app and it goes back to normal

Swipe left or right?

Can you get rid of the annoying vibration?

I have been using this for months. I love it

@Goku1992 Yes, you can simply switch it off in the app settings.

Ok I'm using that one as well. Pretty good. I have Oreo with Substratum and Andromeda installed. Immersive Nav Bar

Anybody know who the dev was for the 0pt.navbar so we could reach out to them possibly?

it's @tytydraco, but he himself still can't make one for Oreo, i don't think it will ever be like 0pt.navbar, at least without root.

You can adjust the height via the adb. Work perfectly with my swipe gestures. And no useless bar under the keyboard.
