Hey guys, new to the group so i apologize if this has been covered before. Has anyone had issues with the nav bar? My screen keeps freezing up and i cant do anything until i hit the back button on my navigation bar/soft key. Once i hit the back button its like it unlocks my screen and i can go about my buisness. I never had this issue until i was messing around with setting on chrome://flags. I went back and restored all flags to default but it doesnt seem right. like my navigation bar stays highlighted now also. any help would be amazing. Device has unlocked bootloader but hasnt been rooted or rom'd

Another question for you guys... I was playing around and was trying to get notification bar mod to work on my phone. i backed up the systemui.apk, then used the modified one and overwrote the stock one. well, it didnt work and made my notification bar stop working and rotated my screen to the side like it was docked. I replaced the original systemui.apk and got my status bar and notification area back, but my screen wont rotate back, and when i hit the home button it takes me to what looks like would be the home screen if the device was docked. Help please, its annoying the hell outta me!
Does anyone haved the stock systemUI.apk?
**EDIT: failed at everything i tried, but somehow its all fixed now! I guess i just need to power it off for a little bit.
Stuck in full screen mode -
The Status bar and bottom bar auto hide. until I swipe to bring them back. How do I disable? On viper rom.
Wrong place to post. There is a thread for ViperROM believe it or not.
I wasn't certain it was because of viper rom, as I can find no relevant setting in Venom tweaks to fix this. Is there a core Android setting for this? I've searched extensively and found nothing.
I believe this is in the right forum now.
any ideas?
ok well... strange that my android started going full screen on viperrom suddenly and no one knows how to change it back. guess it's time to wipe and start over.

I know this is kind of an old thread, but I just had the same problem. I think I put it in fullscreen mode while it was in my pocket and couldn't figure out what was going on for about 2 hours. For anyone else that encounters the same situation, here's the solution:
Press and the power button. At the bottom of the "Phone options" window that pops up is the Fullscreen mode option.
Also found that when I take it out of fullscreen mode, I have to reboot it to get the Status Bar to stop auto-hiding.
Thanks
you're a life saver,
i dont know i missed that out, i rebooted the phone a dozen times and scoured the venom tweak settings for hours to no avail
thaks again

buddy_lee - You're awesome. Thank you. I'd been dealing with this for a few weeks and it was driving me insane. I"ve looked through every setting on the phone, viper, and nova and couldn't figure it out. Can't believe how simple it actually was.
THANK YOU
Thank you so much!! I was crazy because cannot find out why my navigation bar auto hide, for about 2 hours. You are my hero.
I just register as a new member for comment and thank you for your help buddy_lee

Hello,
Sorry if this has been covered else where. I found stuff that was similar but not quite the same.
I am having an issue with Pixel 2 XL where the touches will not track over the navigation bar. If you tap on the navbar, the touch is forced to the top or bottom depending on if you tap is closer to the top or bottom respectively. If it's pushed to the bottom, it works OK, but taps forced to the top trigger the search bar.
When dragging down, the navbar essentially blocks the drag, then a second tap registers below the bar as you pass over it. Since you're at the end of your drag at this point, you lift your finger and the second tap registers as a button press. This results in accidentally tapping the nav bar buttons when you are just dragging down.
I played with it so much that I found if you get just the right spot you'll, end up with two active tap-spots. If I drag rapidly across the nav bar for like 10-30 seconds, it will return to normal, but the phone gets a bit freezy, and seizes up randomly for 3 to 10 seconds at time. After a while it seems to return to normal.
I have also experienced the "screen freezes for a bit, then suddenly registers 100 taps" issue. I'm not sure if they are related. If anyone has insight into this issue as well, i'd love to hear it.
Is anyone else having these issues? I have a video but I'm not allowed to post outside links.
Thanks very much

I tried to replicate what your talking about. However, I couldn't do it. Maybe because I'm using Nova launcher, which may be a viable option for you. A factory reset might be helpful, however, we all know how much fun that ISN'T! Definitely an interesting issue your having. Then again, I think these devices have a mind of their own at times ?
Thanks for your reply. Forgot to mention, I have tried safe mode and done a factory reset and it did not remove the issue. It seems after a factory reset you are still on Oreo 8.1, so I'm not able to confirm it the issue exists in 8.0. I also have tried Nova Launcher.
When trying to switch back to a previous app by swiping right on the navigation bar (directly on that little assist bar) i can go through my open apps, but i cannot open any of them. It just jumps to the first one. Surprisingly i can jump to the last one by swiping left without issues.
Since i dont want to reset this phone right now and its not that annoying, maybe someone already had the same issue and got it fixed.

Well you open up the settings app , scroll down to navigation button and gestures , and then select navigation bar, that should disable the gestures and bring back the bottom navigation buttons bar. Hope that helps you.
Thanks, but i'm asking about if someone knowns a fix for the gesture navigation, actually im ussing the button navigation because the gesture one is broken, even with root, i tried the Fluid Navigation app and botton gesture didn't work sadly...
