[Q] Navigation bar for TW rom? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a TW rom with navigation bar for Note 2. I know navigation bar is available for Note 1 with SlimWizz2 rom.

Adding a line to build.prop (at the end) will enable sofykey navigation bar(virtual key)
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

Hey this works great! thanks! I have only one question... is it possible to change the size of the buttons and the bar? (I guess it's a dpi setting, but I don't know how to change it ) And maybe too if I can change the color to blue
Thanks in advance!

I believe there is an xposed mod to change the dpi of the Nav bar.
Please do a search and find as i'm not able to find it.
I haven't tried this so, i wouldn't knwo whether this works for sure.

Is this method cannot use in S4? After added the qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 and reboot, it said System UI (something like that) error occured.

Does this work on a stock (Rooted) 4.3 TW rom as well?

Is possible to reduce the NavBar

Hello boys!!! It wanted to ask if it is possible to reduce the NavBar. I would be interested to have it in 20 dpi.
Thank you :good:
Well, I have solved by half the matter. We go to it:
1º: To install Xposed of here http://dl.xposed.info/latest.apk (thanks to slass1990)
2º: To install Xblast Tools (1.6.1)
3º: To go to the module that we have just installed (Xblast)
4º: To go to bar of navigation / height sweeps (I mark 24dpi)
5º: To mark above the color of the bar and 6 to take it to the transparent one (this me has not worked)
6º: To go to framework and to restart.
I hope that you like

And I just get to know the "ultimate dynamic navbar", I think you might also be interested

My phone is rooted and this still does not work. This app seems to be hit or miss, I have never actually gotten anything in this app to work. Perhaps only the mainstream (Samsung, HTC, etc..) are supported ?? I'm not sure.

Did you upgraded to KitKat and want to hide Navigation Bar and use third party Pie control like LMT?
Well, maybe you find that LMT doesn't show from the bottom of screen after you did all above steps, right? It happen to me too.
This is why I created this Xposed mod. It will disable Navigation Ring, so your third party navigation will again show at the bottom of screen. Enjoy!

Hi @smyrosnik and @6ril1,
I have 20a and no lg keyboard fc issue. Can you provide me logcat?
My LG keyboard version is 4.4.28, if you have older, try software update.
I don't think weather is broken by my mod. It doesn't work at all, no matter if I activate or disable my mod.
I am guessing the mod is modifying build.prop. In this case whether I try to hide navigation button through the mod or by addding qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 to that file has the same result. It causes the weather widget to malfunction and sometimes the keyboard fc. The keyboard version is 4.4.22. I have used both Stock 4.4.2 international version for D802 and CloudyStock 1.2. Same problem
I will provide the log as soon as possible.

Not modifying build.prop, but overwrite android config value. Basically output is same. As you guys said, this is common way for most mods to hide navigation, nothing special.
Weird is that weather widget doesn't work on my device. When I add it to home screen or lock screen it ask to download 75MB update. After that update add again doesn't work at all.
Any idea why the mod doesn't seem to do anything? Installed,activated and rebooted, the navigation bar is still there. Would love to get some pie for the stock ROM finally,feels so cramped with the bar

Can you post Xposed log?
Do you have any other mod activated, which have options to tweak navigation bar?
It could be that this other mod revert it back.

Nevermind this was caused by leftover line in build.prop (hwkeys=0), works great now after removing it. Now the only problem is that stock keyboard doesn't show suggestions, otherwise it works well but the boxes where the suggestions should be are empty. That I can live with

This is really weird. I got similar issue when I upgraded LG Keyboard to 4.4.23 version. It break keyboard theme. Actually suggestions were there, but they got same text color like background, so it looks like empty.
Big thanks... I have found it many times... Great work...

Hi, I'm using this mod but I still have the navigation ring.
When I activate it only soft keys disappears.
I use only this mod + gravity box.
You gave me light at the end of the tunnel. I was about to convince myself a huge nav bar is fine, until I saw this. Works great with GMD Auto Hide Soft Keys.
Thanks!

Well, your screenshot show gravity box crash. Gravity box is quite powerfull mod, it tweaks a lot of things. Try to check it's settings if there is anything related to Navigation Ring. Like I wrote before, if using multiple mod which tweaks navigation bar, it could happen that my mod disable it and next mod enable again.
You can simply confirm it by disabling gravity box for the moment and restart.

What I see is a lot of missing files and resources needed for keyboard to run. This looks really strange. You are running original LG stock ROM? Anything disabled or removed?
I don't think I can solve missing keyboard files. Do you have latest 4.4.28 keyboard?

NavBar on the Left

Hi guys, there is a method to force the navigation bar on left (or right) when tablet is in orizzontal mode? Thanks

Here's pics of xposed Phab7 and GravityBox navbar settings...
Also, GravityBox has many other tweaks!
Hey, iam on a nvidia shield tablet, but want navbar on right side in landscape. I tried gravity box + phab7.
It moves my navbar but all buttons are gone. If i enable the cursor keys while in text, i can see the left cursor. This makes me think the buttons are just outside of the visible area maybe?
Any ideas or someone who experienced the same issue?

Preventing Navigation Bar Burn In (No Root, ADB needed only)

Hi all, many people complain about a burn in. With my phone 6 months in and no burn in, I'd like to suggest a tip with no need of root
1) Install Navbar Apps
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.damianpiwowarski.navbarapps
2) Enter app and enable Active App option, which changes the Navbar color according to the app.
3) Install Custom Navigation Bar
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=xyz.paphonb.systemuituner
4) Enter app and go to Navigation Bar> Experimental Tweaks. (OPTIONAL: Make a new Profile with these settings for easy switching like I do. One custom profile and one stock profile)
There, change each button to keycode, and select the right keycode.
5) Choose the correct Icon, or non at all. I downloaded a transparent dot icons and use it for all 3, looks best to me. Look at screenshot.
Done!
Optional: Add Google Assistant key with Custom Navigation Bar or make a quick setting shortcut with this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.leedroid.shortcutter
Screenshots Attached.
Transparent Dot I use: https://goo.gl/photos/JUHiZbM1jsgcusY8A

You don't want a colored bar? You want it totally transparent?
The app won't let me go past this step. So do I have to be rooted?
