I decided to go with the soft keys nav bar instead of the capacitive buttons. The only app I've seen so far that doesn't automatically hide the nav bar is the Camera app. Is there a way to make the camera app hide the nav bar similar to going into fullscreen mode like Youtube? Youtube actually hides the navbar on the rooted GS5 whereas the camera does not.
Thanks
Is there any way to disable the navbar for a full screen navigation. I have immersive mode on but when I swipe up from the bottom it still pops up. That's what I want to dis able. I already have an alternative installed and it works very well. I'm on Oreo beta so no root sadly.
Will you be using the new features that eliminate the nav buttons? although you loose the long press options on nav bar
why not
I like the new feature, but I badly miss the menu function (long press} of old navbar, OnePlus should add this function as additional gesture
I liked it, but it's a bit bare now and needs a few preferences to suit everyone.
I admit I was skeptical at first about the swipe navigation posts earlier, but I now can see the benefits.
it's great except for Back not being responsive enough, Home is good
Yes I'd love to replace my Xposed Edge + GMD Gestures combo with a stock feature, but only if we are able to customise the duration of the animations / duration of long press, and if we can enable and disable individual gestures independently. Because the back gestures are wacky, the other ones are good except for the sluggish animations.
Very nice this gestures but have some little bugs:
1. Back gesture not work very good.
2. Can't start Google assistant (long press home button ???) - partial resolve by: "OK Google" or Nova Launcher
3. Same situation on Recent and back button (long press actions) bye bye
The back gesture is not fast enough.
However, gestures are interruptive and fun to use.
I still would love to have the disappearing nav-bar with a simple toggle to bring it up and take it down.
If there was an option to go back to last app with no waiting time it would have been great. For now I will switch to stable or different rom.
I would definitely prefer the back gestures as is on iPhone or Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 (Maybe more models too), just sliding from the left side of the screen or right side of the screen. It is a way easier and more reliable than now.
I like a lot the new gestures feature, like someone said in the previous responses, some customization for the gestures will be greatly appreciated.
No because I use a very similar just MUCH more cutomisable method with better results.
I disabled Nav bar using jOneplustools app via new quick settings option and use this app instead. https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...ation&hl=en_GB
called: Swipe Navigation
FULLY customisable long press actions and sensitivity. Compatible with most roms and quick and easy to set up.
I jumped on the bandwagon of the prime day PH-1 and picked one up. I ran through all of the updates and turned on the fingerprint sensor gestures but they aren't working. fingerprint for unlock works just fine though. I've rebooted several times and done a hard reset to no avail. Am I out of luck here?
Thanks
If you updated to Android Pie you have to enable gestures. Burried all the way in the system tab at the bottom of settings.
What do they do? I find the sensor is not in a good place for gestures.
I love the apps oneplus gestures and hide nav bar though. Gives same gestures as op6 and hides nav bar for full screen.
Shame they are not built in along with double tap to wake and skip lock screen after face unlock.
On the Essential its just to pull down the notification shade.

I was just about to start searching for this feature. Coming from the Pixel 2 XL I realized I didn't really need it but just wanted to have it lol. This phone is really nice too bad there won't be a second one
HOW TO HIDE 100% NAV BAR ON MI A2
OLD (method) but GOLDPeople now using GMD of XDA or Fluid N.G. to hide navbar & switch to gestures on PIE
However, sometimes, there are bugs in landscape mode of games & apps. Example: Messenger chat head still not totaly on the right hand side, it flying, volume pannel is cutted bla bla
So, instead of using Hide navbar features of GMD or Fluid N.G. I suggest rooted-users to add "qemu.hw.mainkeys=1" to the last row of buildprop then reset your phone. Then you will see it's disappear 100%. (its mean you just define that your phone has hard buttons so android will automatic turn the virtual buttons off). No bugs anymore.
Magic here:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
ALERT: Finish your gestures setup before add this to buildprop
