I have just bought an X Style and have a few questions
1) Is it possible to adjust the size of the Nav buttons without root?
2) Is is possible to activade expanded desktop on the phone to hide the nav buttons in some apps?
3) Are other camera apps able to use more advanced settings compared to the stock camera app?
4) If you root X Style and install an rom,, will the camera be worse?
I have experienced that on both my Sony and Oneplus phones.
5) When is the official Nougat going to be released world wide to the phone?

I am only able to answer your 3rd question, yes there are some camera apps available with extra settings like manual exposure and focus etc..however the one which worked the most for me is bacon camera, available from the play store. Most of the other apps need the camera2api which is not in the stock ROM, however bacon camera does not use camera2api.
Hopefully that helped a bit?

1) No, not directly resize them, but you can reorder them or replace them with custom or different size ones. https://www.xda-developers.com/how-...icons-or-re-arrange-the-buttons-without-root/
2) Kind of, Marshmallow supports expanded desktop for an app, but the app has to call that function, you can't toggle it on and off. The app is in control.
3) Yes, look around, lots apps available, but the X doesn't support Camera2API, so you are somewhat limited. Personally, I like Camera ZOOM FX Premium but that is just because I got it on sale years ago and been using it a while. The issue with the Moto is you can't change the default camera so you can twist it open or open it form the lock screen, which is annoying because the stock camera's controls are crap.
4) It will be the same
5) That is the $50 question... sometime between now and the end of time. In other words, we have no idea.

You can add toggle for that on homescreen or in quick settings with apps like power toggles without root
Where do I find the expanded desktop option in settings?

Not the device settings... he said Power Toggles, so I think he meant https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.painless.pc
I'm looking for a way to enable immersive mode on the G6 in some apps.
I saw the topic "18:9 immersive mode ..." but I only need the immerisve mode to be in chosen apps.
Is it possible? The phone is not unlocked nor rooted.
If there is a method where root is needed, I will root.
I really need this too
You can do it with the combination of Tasker and AutoTools (plugin to Tasker by Joao). Both applications are paid but in my opinion they are definitely worth the price.
I'm using this combo on my G6 and turn off Immersive Mode when I use Chrome - I mean Tasker automatically turns it off for me.
There are plenty of tutorials and guides on how to use Tasker and for your case, app based profiles.
99% of the time, I hold my phone in landscape orientation; especially now that the Android OS natively supports a landscape desktop. I'd like to hide the navigation panel and just use edge gestures.
So... which edge gestures app fully supports landscape mode on the Android desktop? It looks like some apps don't even consider people use landscape on devices with large displays. In fact, I'm not even sure if Android Pie 9 will natively support edge gestures while holding the phone in landscape mode.
Thanks in advance for anyone that can answer my question!
Edit: Is there a better sub-forum on XDA to ask this question? It seems like this question would apply to any phone with a screen large enough to view Android landscape desktop comfortably.
One handed operation + from samsung
Thank you. for responding! I needed to manually enable landscape support under Advanced settings for this app! I really appreciate your suggestion!
Hi all,
I use the Immersive screen option on my note 9 (basically gets rid of all the top display that holds battery info/signals,etc)
I want to know if anyone does this on the s10 plus and how does it look with the cutout that's on the screen.
Full screen immersive mode note 10 plus
App cloner
is there a good way to get the android 10 gestures on s8 , what im looking for is the fast swipe between open applications , which the stock one UI poorly does like the one on one plus phones
