LMT Launcher - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys,
Has anyone with a rooted G4 tried LMT launcher yet? I love removing the softkeys to get more screen estate and was wondering if its working yet?

hope u can get some help

I know this is a revival of sorts but I have both rooted and installed lmt but am having issues getting the right side pie controls to work in either landscape orientation. I have soft keys disabled. Anyone have an idea?

you don't need root anymore to install and use LMT. Get it from the "Pie Control" from the Play Store and once installed give it access in Settings > General > Accessibility, then under SERVICES tic Pie and turn it on.
Now you have pie controls just like LMT.
cheers

Go to g4 themes and apps thread people have talked about it, I'm running lmt on the bottom with the nav bar gone and the Google swipe up gone with the help of xposed lg pie support module

I got LMT working flawlessly on the bottom.
Get Xposed if you haven't alread (follow the instructions in the Xposed thread)
In the xposed app, search for LG Pie Support. It says KK only, but it works fine in Lollipop. This module also fixes Snapchat's weird black placeholder even after adding qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
Huge thanks to the devs of Xposed and LG Pie Support.

Disabling Nav bar stops camera buttons working??

Hey all
I've never been a fan of nav bars, on previous phones I have been able to remove the Nav Bar and then use LMT launcher instead.
Although this causes issues on the G3, when you remove the nav bar you can no longer press any buttons on the camera app? Anyone got any idea how to fix this?
I've tried editing the build prop and using the lg xposed module and it happens on both

If you use LG Pie Support xposed module, it has a hook that sets the navbar @ 0px and hidden, so it's active but not visible/usable.
Only issue w/ this is that some apps will make space at the bottom of the screen as if the navbar is present.

From me a working way was to "disable navigation bar via G3 toolbox module" that make the camera app work. (but i found a problem in stock web browser that you can not use copy/paste function)

I've tried the toolbox, didn't work for me :/. I'm going to try it again, because I prefer the stock camera over 3rd parties. (I'm using 3rd party because I don't like the navbar space the fore mentioned G3 Pie Support causes)

[Q] Gesture apps - Why home gesture dont work?

Hi to all!
I'm experiencing a really strange thing when try to set an HOME gesture with some of most famous apps for that purpose, like ALL IN ONE GESTURES, EDGE GESTURES and similar.
If I set recent apps and back gesture, they work in every way I set them...but if I try to set ANY KIND of gesture for returning to home... nothing happens.
The command work properly (I feel the haptic vibration, or alinz, that starts when a command is performed), but the gesture won't work in the end...
Anyone noticed that too? Maybe there's something I missed for make them work?
I use swipe up from bottom border and it works for me. I use aio.

I didn't find the cause yet but it is also happening to me. If I reboot the phone the home gesture starts to work fine, it only breaks if I re-enabled the nav bar + disable immersive mode using their quick tiles provided by joneplustools and systemuituner. The easiest solution is to reboot the phone.
Well but are you rooted?
Because I can disable navbar but on home screen it'll be always there, so I can't use bottom gestures, only edge...

Right now I'm rooted, yes.
Without root the navbar always shows if you swipe from the bottom. You could try a 0px navbar by I think it doesn't work in OOS at the moment.

I already have the 0pt navbar and used successfully on S8 but with OnePlus it just don't works, I suppose because the navbar is named "drawable" in OnePlus internals while in APK it's "navbar", at least I've read it on multiple sources...

Yeah that must be the reason.
If you don't want to root right now your solution is to use a gesture app like edge gestures or swipe navigation because you can use gestures from the right/left edge so you activate the navbar less often.
It's not ideal but is has one advantage; for example when I want to close a game using the back button, the gesture sometimes is not recognized and I have to activate the navbar using the quick setting and that sometimes breaks the home gesture like we discussed yesterday so I have to reboot the phone sometimes. You only have to swipe from the bottom and it's all fine.

Yeah...but the fact that navbar is permanent in home screen no matter if you choose to hide it or not is really disappointing...

According to my experience this kind of problem is most likely caused by a third party app, possibly an xposed module or some half baked apk. Privately exchange a list of your installed apps, compare and concentrate on the more dubious apps you have in common and you may find your culprit there.

Well I don't have any X module since I'm not rooted, apps installed I don't know but I doubt it because are the same apps that was in S8 before, so I don't think that an app can interfere with the 0pt navbar functions...

Yeah that's the main gripe. I suppose you are concerned about burn-in.
I don't know if stock OOS Oreo will fix that. Maybe some Dev can mod the navbar file as I was done with the old filetype as in the Galaxy S8.
I also can tell you that on LiquidRemix 8.0 ( it's on a Telegram group as is in testing stage ) you could hide the navbar completely without root but I understand that you don't want to change the rom and right now is has bugs so is better to stay in Oxygen.
Right now I'm using stock OOS 4.7.4 with root and to update is super easy, just download and flash the full zip, flash your kernel + magisk/superSu after and it's done.
I don't know if you care about Android Pay...

I can tell you that on a fresh installed OOS 4.7.4 without third party apps it doesn't work. The problem is that on Oxygen the navbar has another name in system so that mod doesn't work.
No I don't care about it because there's no need for it now, at least for me.
I've always rooted phones, no problems with that, it's just that I don't feel the need to do it with 5T since is nearly stock and good to run stock "as is"...

[APK] Navigauton bar - 0 pt apk - OnePlus 5T compatibility?

Hi to all!
Just wanted to know if there's a possibility to get this APK work on out 5T too...on S8 it worked like a charm and easily bring the chance to navigate the phone without navigation soft keys, along with a swipe navigation app from Play Store (All In One Gestures for example).
This apk reduce the height of the navbar to 0, pratically will "delete" the navbar permanently (after a reboot), and the stock state could be reversed with simply uninstall this app.
But I noticed that this will not work on 5T: installed, reboot but navbar it's still there...
So, the question is: anyone knows how to get this to work with 5T too?

Looking for the same thing but one that shrinks the navbar like -18DPI or smaller. None of the available mods or substratum themes seem to work for Oreo regarding the navbar.
Ah, I'm on NOUGAT, hasn't switched to Oreo yet, waiting official OTA.
But I think that this, once "fixed", should work on Oreo and Nougat too...
At least...I hope...

On nougat there's a couple different ways. If your rooted there's a magisk module. If not you should be able to use Andromeda and use the substratum navbar height plug in.
Only thing regarding changing the height to -o is that it sometimes breaks your power button. So if you hold it it instantly reboots your phone.
There's a thread on how to get around that if your are rooted using Xposed temporarily to achieve hiding the navbar.

I'm not rooted, but that "Andromeda" thing? It's a Substratum module?
what does this apk do to the phone?
i know you wrote it will adjust the height to 0px
but whats the benefit out of it?

The benefit is to be able to use FULL display without on screen buttons, prevent burn-in because of softkeys...and let be able to navigate the phone with gestures with apps like All in one gestures or swipe navigation.
:good:
Best solution atm is to root your device and use jOnePlus Tools app. No need for Xposed at all, as jOnePlus Tools adds a qs tile to show/hide the navigation bar.
The best solution is that I think, found in another thread posted by @janres155 , that can be done with ADB without root, xposed or Substratum...only a single command in ADB shell will do the trick:

Pull down the notification bar from anywhere on the screen?

Hi, have a rooted phone!
And i haven't yet found solution to enable pull down notification panel option from anywhere on screen.
I am able to enable this option by installing Nova launcher and similar apps.
But i am looking for other ways, like modules, guide or something else.
Thanks. Whish you all the best
Shouldn't the notification panel already can pull down from any screen already?
Or I misunderstood notification panel?

Use the fingerprint gesture in the Settings.

yeah this seems like a way to go for you
Tried the gestures with 2 and 3 fingers and on Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite they don't work.
Checked Google and Pixel launcher is the only stock launcher that can do it stock... at least from the first page of Google results.
I have this function on Resurrection Remix rom on another phone, but I mostly find it annoying. It's a better option to use the fingerprint to open notifications.
It looks like OP solved the issue just for the record also Lawnchair and Poco launchers can do it fine.
Nova launcher does the job too

Question Nova launcher Problems and floating windows and other bugs

Hi I have a new poco F3 8/256gb and it comes with Miui 12.0.2 but I have problems with nova launcher, the buttons recent app doesn´t work and only shows a blanck screen without any of the app. I tried with Apex launcher with the same resul. Then the icon for floating windows only apears on the control center icon and not on recent app, so the usability is very poor. Another problem I have is the bar of gesture on the botton of the screen sometime disapears and sometimes not. I search on the net and a tried, developer option miui optimitation with no positive results, hope Xiaomi release a new update soon.
It's a problem with poco launcher that broke recent apps if you install another launcher.
See here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...12-2-2-4-eu-version-android-11.4215795/page-2
I have installed the new version and it's ok now for me with Microsoft launcher
It's not miui, it's android 11. when i was using mi9t with PE, no third party launchers work really well. lawnchair and shady launcher do release their alpha versions and it's usable, not perfect, but, yeah, usable.
Lawnchair Alpha doesn't work, it's the same problem. The moment you enable Lawnchair gestures are disabled.
I had the same issue on my F3 with Nova Launcher
Thanks to @stevejc, I just installed Poco Launcher v2.20.1.26 and got back the recent apps in Nova !
But I have also lost floating windows !
thanks to @stevejc for his answer I update the poco launcher and my nova works perfect but I still have no floating window options in a recent panel. anyone can help me with this?
The only working tip is to use the quick settings button for each app.
I don't have also the icon in recent panel too.
Full gestures don't seem to work for me if I use custom launcher only traditional Dock navigation bar works. Even if you still insist using full gestures restart brings back old navigation. However I tried this app it seems to make full gestures work? Restart old navigation does still return but we can continue use full gestures. Can anyone confirm? If it works more than just me I might buy it.
Pls ignore the app I recommended. When it works it works but it can suddenly stop working. I am going back to poco launcher until there is a fix or someone recommend a working gesture app.

sorry I can´t confirm because a I use the poco launcher now
I got a reply frm an xda developer. He develop gesture app for earlier androids. He said he can't help us. So I am guessing other gestures might not fully work either?
Guys more of you need to submit feedback / bugs complain I get the feeling xiaomi will not fix the full gesture with custom launcher issue. This their respond despite telling them oneplus has no issue with nova on android 11. I got a oneplus 7t pro.
Hi I'm using microsoft launcher and the app my gesture and it'working.

You have any issue of it suddenly stop working? I did. Its same with all others I tried they can suddenly stop working if I don't have 3 dot at bottom it be an issue. Mygesture suddenly stop working according to app accessibility stop responding I need to restart. Turning accessibility on off for it didn't work only restart did.
You need to avoid stop the app in recent apps screen (first icon).
Also I give the app the Start automatically authorization and no battery optimisation.
I have the same problem if I kill the app but with the previous settings it's OK.
I can hide the nav bar, only after reboot they come again.
To hide them add gesture in Miui settings
