Hello everyone,
As it is clear from the title of this thread, I need help to increase the height of my navigation bar. For reference, I am currently using xPerience rom by teammex.
Why I wanna do that you ask? Actually the bottom most part (where the software buttons are) had stooped working for quite some time now. But recently my hardware keys also stopped working and when I fired software keys, I realized I am unable to use them because of the screen problem.
Currently, I am using pie controls as workaround.
Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
PS- the issue happened when I was in miui, and I have flashed fastboot rom a couple times since then so please don't suggest that.
Use can use an xposed module, Dimensions editor. I am using it on Xpe (to reduce the height of nav bar).

Is xposed working fine with magisk, or you have to root with superSU?

The module you mentioned "dimesion editor" only support upto kitkat, i guess. I installed it in xposed but the phone didn't boot up afterwards.
I used Gravitybox however, and it served the purpose.
Edit: Apparently the app works, first time it got my phone bootlooped but second time it worked.
Thanks.

Hi guys i have brought moto g 2014 3days back. and i wonder is there is any option to add more options like rotation toggle.
Its upto you, if you only want extra toggles then go for without root method and if you want to still customize your phone to a greater level go for root method.
With Root : This will add extra toggles in the quick settings.
Unlock bootloader, root your device. Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/development/guide-root-moto-g-2nd-gen-2014-t2874245
Install Xposed Framework and GravityBox KK module. Link : http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer
Without root : This will add a bunch of extra toggles in the notification screen.
Install Notification Toggles Link : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.notificationToggle.
Or Power Toggles.
Exposed framework + Gravity box = lots of happiness
Thank u guys for ur response
Have another doubt
I was using cm for past one year now i switched to the moto g. Cm has a feature to open quick toggle by swiping status bar from right side. Is it possible in moto g.
I am not rooted bcz i am still warranty and i dont want to avoid it by rooting

Not possible without rooting. You will have to use Xposed Framework and GravityBox.

K i will try after rooting.
But may be after some times.
Bcz my moto g is new and i dont want to void the warranty
Remember that unlocking your bootloadercomes with factory reset -> backup.

Very hard to do with one hand only.
The left/right way is much more effective.

Just saying that the left/right implementation is better than Google's one/two finger method.
GravityBox essentially turns the stock rom into CM or similar. You have all the features, there's no need to actually have CM anymore if you ask me. The only downside is that you do need root (or more specifically, you need root to install XPosed framework, which gravity box needs).

CM isn't just features actually its a lot more.
I don't suppose gravitybox could take my old nexus s to KitKat

No, but if you have a stock-rom that's basically AOSP and the latest version of Android, you don't really gain anything by going for a custom rom versus just using GravityBox. The latter version also still allows you to update the stock rom in the normal fashion.

I agree Gravity Box is the way to go. My only mistake was integrating updates into system and now can't get OTA updates. Complains about chrome.apk, etc during verification OTA.
Do you have a twrp backup of the stock XT1068 system for UK version that you could share? (21.11.14.titan_retgb.retgball.en.GB.retgb)
Disable Quick Settings
Is there an option to disable Quick Settings from the top right?
Thanks for the useful info
Hi there, it looks like my bottom part of my nexus 4 touch is dead which makes the navigation bar unresponsive, however i was able to make it work with the help of xposed framework by increasing the height of navbar.
My question is can't i make modification in the rom itself and flash it and make it a parmanent fix so that everytime i factory reset rom i dont have to use xposed framework? Because uninstalling the gravitybox app reverts the changes i made to navbar. If this is possible please let me know the procedure for the same.
Thanks

You could install a ROM that has this option incorporated in it, like Chroma, for example. There are more such ROMs in the development section.

Well, another solution would be to decompile framework-res.apk and change the DPI from there. But, as I don't know much about coding, I can't really help you with this...
I just posted this question.
Hey guys! I found a way (kinda) to enable navbar(navigation bar/soft buttons).
First I would like to say that this way was found by user @manderspaul , and all thanks and donations(lol, why not ) should go to HIM. So HUGE THANKS bro!
And here's the guide:
Download Good Lock UI(Try getting it from Galaxy Store, just because it's safe)
Install Xposed(the one provided by wanam works great)
Install GravityBox [MM] from Xposed
Now, go to navigation bar settings, and tap on master switch and then enable navbar.
Reboot Your phone and enjoy!
NOTE: TouchWiz launcher will be slightly messed up(smaller) after that, so I would recommend You to use other launcher(Nova works fine)
My setup: XtreStoLite 3.3 + stock kernel(G920F).
To Do:
Add Navbar to stock SystemUI.

I was rooted, had xposed installed and realized that the fingerprint scanner is much slower and not as responsive as when i am on stock B27 or just stock and rooted.
Stock = less than a second to unlock
Stock + root = less than a second to unlock
Stock + root + xposed (without modules yet) = more than a second to unlock and device performance seems to take a hit. UI lags very often.
I have tried this on a clean setup as well same issue. anyone else with xposed having similar or better experience?

I had the same issue on b20, but couldn't figure out what was causing it. Do you have gravitybox? Maybe some part of it is affecting how quickly the phone wakes up?

I had modules before (xprivacy, xposed additions and Audio Stream Music Default). But on the clean install I had just xposed and still the same issue.
Looks to me that there might be some interfering between Mifavor UI and xposed.
They should really consider going stock when they release Nougat. Less hassle for them to maintain and easier for us to deal with.

Just wanted to update this. I install Rovo's newest framework (3.1) and slow fingerprint issues are gone! Not sure what changed, but even with gravitybox, the scanner is lightning fast.

Thanks for the reply guys!
I think I might have figured the root cause of the issue. I installed my modules one by one and realized that uninstalling xprivacy module fixed the issue. It's unfortunate since it was one of my favourite modules
my modules for whoever is interested:
-Audio Stream Music Default - pressing volume keys anytime changes media volume instead of ringtone volume
-xposed additions - cutomize volume keys with multiple taps, long presses for multiple use on lockscreen, screen on/off (i use it for long press volume up or down to switch tracks)
-xprivacy - to control what permissions apps use (but doesnt seem to work with MiFavor so i disabled it)
I had this problem while I was on b20, it went back to normal after I went and updated to b27 via @DrakenFX 's method.. When I came back up with b27, root, xposed, bl unlock, haven't had the slow fingerprint problem If it helps anyone else..

Currently it's not activated.
But 2 days ago, when I installed it firstly, after reboot I couldn't use the phone: it couldn't even get to the pin screen. It was continously doing a screen on and off.
I had to uninstall gravitybox via adb from my pc.
But it has to work (it says you have to activate it) even if it's not activated. At least, on my other device (Moto x style) it does.
NOTE** After a week of using edexposed it was evident that my battery life suffered, as such please be aware of this trade off, for me it's simply not worth it but please read on if you're fine with it.. you'll still get a day but the difference is clear.
Xposed - Gravity box
Pre- requisites
Unlocked bootloader
Rooted
Magisk installed.
Process
------------
Download this: https://github.com/RikkaApps/Riru/releases
Install it using magisk

Also install it using magisk.
Reboot
Open xposed and update to the full version.
Reboot
Download this: https://github.com/GravityBox/Gravi...0.0.0-beta-7_q/GravityBox_Q_10.0.0-beta-7.apk
Install it.
Activate in Xposed
Activate the Xposed manager too.
Reboot
Make activate the second you need then once complete
Reboot.
Once you've made one change your can alter on the fly
There's an image of what it looks like on my phone afterwards, I can't post it here as it's an edit, just check the thread
Thanks @burtonlax for reminding me that Xposed is still a thing.
It will appear off center as it's relative to the screen, bare in mind our cut out is on the left
If this thread looks odd, its because it started out as a question.
So with the latest yahfa canary and edxposed in App List mode with SafetyNet Pass enabled, safety net is passing for me. GPay will let me set up contactless payment if I want to.

So from what I have, what would I update?
Cheers man this is great to know.
Currently removed the clock from the status bar. Prefer it to on the left.
K-Klock may cause a bootloop so haven't tried that.
Short of finding a way to get FSBI working (which would require xposed - I tried edxposed yahfa, no luck) I haven't found a way.
Our icon blacklist does not have positional clocks, and the substratum theme I tried just resulted in a bootloop.
I badly want to put the clock back on the right side but so far I haven't found a way to do it.
Try gravitybox

The right side? Why?? That would look mental.
Take a look at my screenshot
Battery round the camera, networks on the right, would have been perfect to have the clock in the middle, why would it wasn't the clock on the right too?
Anyway nvm appreciate your response. I think carbon has this option and probably PA. I'll probably the up on one of them.
Cheers.

Have you installed xposed on Android 10 ?
There are several xposed apps I used to use but I haven't seen anything about it on this phone or my last one. The last phone I had, most the mods started to fall to work.
Personally I wouldn't go for xposed, should have put that in the OP.

I don't know but it would be a nice addition for your magisk rom module.
Perhaps even add full date next to clock?

I agree
I'm trying to find the time which needs to be edited to move the clock.
Apparently it was changed to avoid notches..
Besides xposed there must be a way.
So yep gravity box seems to be our only way at the moment.
Added a guide to the op.
Sorry I know it's not easier to accomplish but that's avenue in 2020
PS: little off centre. It's already smiting me.
Added the date, looks ok now
I think it looks more natural on the left.

Obviously doesn't pass safetynet with xposed, but worth it for GravityBox and the stuff it enables me to do.
