Fingerprint navigation - Moto Z Themes, Apps, and Mods

Is there a way to get rid of the navigation bar and use the fingerprint sensor as navigation like on the Moto x4? I'm on Oreo 8.0 regular Moto Z.

No, unfortunately our fingerprint sensor doesn't support gestures, so we can't use it to control our system.

Yeah OK, but that's not "real" fingerprint gestures.
But if it works for you it's fine I guess.

Hi
What custom ROM are you using? Lineage 15.1?
Thanks

Any app or something that expands on the quick functions of a pixels power button?

The pixel has a feature that lets you double press the power button to pull up the camera or snapchat etc., is there an app or kernel etc that expands on that and allows for, say triple click for flashlight, or some other functions ?
You can use the Google assistant for this. "OK Google -> flashlight on" or similar.

My Google assistant doesn't seem to have access to any spellbooks... Hoping they fix that in the next update

This worked great for me to toggle the flashlight with a long press of either volume button from the lockscreen. Thanks for the suggestion!

Off-Screen gestures

Since we can double tap to wake the phone, will it be possible to add other gestures via a ROM or kernel like on the op5/5t?

Third-party launchers will need an update for the back arrow to be hidden on the home screen by default, in Android P, when gestures are enabled. Nothing can be done at the moment.

Not on P yet, but eventually.

I'm using OnePlus gestures and highly recommend it. Along with Hide Nav Bar it's like my OnePlus 6 was...which had much better gesture navigation than the P implementation

Is that an app, does it require root or anything? And does it work well? Better then the XDA app?
If you go to the link just once, you’ll have your queries addressed in the video or the article.
Navigation Gestures by XDA does not require root access, meaning you can use our app on virtually any Android device.
Navigation Gestures by XDA doesn’t use Immersive Mode to hide the navigation bar, which means an accidental swipe near the bottom won’t interfere with our gesture controls.
Navigation Gestures by XDA doesn’t force fullscreen mode. This means that keyboard access won’t be broken unlike other solutions.

New gesture appear in setting

I randomly go through the setting today and i found setting for gesture including double tap to check phone, swipe fingerprint for notification, lift to check phone beside the old double press power button to launch camera. This is the first time I see these gesture appear, but none of them working
October update ?

This Option Doesn't Appear In My "MI Xiaomi A2 Lite" As It Is Already Updated On October Patch.
I dont see this in my settings too. I think it has to do with where your country is
Im still on September update with magisk installed, but i have no module related to this. I'm currently in the US
No new gestures in Germany with October patch.
Got swipe fingerprint in UK but not others. I have an imported device that has double tap to wake screen hardware which by default is switched on and can't be turned off (yet here). Not complaining, I like the feature.
Gesture with fingerprint reader appears after second November update (~50MB size). Lift to check and double tap to check - never seen them. BTW I have the device with double tap to wake which could not be switched off, the same situation as @p3108
By chance what's the build number you have? I have two Lites on different builds, both on the November patch, only one has the options for swipe and jump to camera. The other only jump to to camera
you need have OPM1.171019.019.V9.6.11.0.ODLMIFF which is 2nd november patch, with lower version there is no option for finger print gestures.

Thanks... I never met anyone with EBBG model type with D2TW yet. Not sure why xiaomi didnt apply this gesture to all Mi A2 / Mi A2 Lite
Just to clarify all the questions, I install the stock Rom after install the android Pie gsi, and some how these appear in the setting. This happens twice, this is the first time, the second time ot actually work with raise to wake and some other (i don't remember) from Havoc os. Im not sure how it works or how to make it happens again
Seems the swipe fingerprint for notification is gone in pie.. hopefully thats temporary, I was getting quite use to it
This gesture settings was appeared in October 1, 2018 security patch update

Make Homebutton work properly on AOSP-Roms

Hi,
I found myself using the Homebutton wake up the Device then unlocking it with the swipe up gesture.
I like it that way. But it only works on MIUI.
On LineageOS or other AOSP-based roms I can only use double tap or the power button.
Is there any mod to make it work? Or am I just dump to not find that option?
