Is there a way to get the Navigation Menu Button back in Android 10? - Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers

I'm about to install a custom ROM on my Pixel 3 XL, but before I do, I wanted to know if there was a way to get the Navigation Menu Button back in Android 10? If there is not a way to do that, I'll be opting for Android 9. Or are there any other alternatives that allow me to have the ability to access that menu? I use two older apps that both have that menu for my CCTV camera software and I don't want to give that up. Any help on this is appreciated. Thx.

I use gesture navigation with Vivid Navigation Gestures (OnePlus Gestures), which supports the menu button via gesture in android 9. Not sure about android 10 but worth looking into, if you want to move to gesture navigation. Used with Hide Navigation Bar.
google is trying to get rid of this... https://www.androidpolice.com/2019/...utton-has-finally-been-retired-in-android-10/

Thanks guys. I'll check those apps out and see if I can get it working. Appreciate the help.

[Q] Perform custom application action using NFC

I am trying to set up some NFC tag actions using my Galaxy Nexus running stock ICS 4.02. I am using the pro version of NFC Task Launcher. Right now I can create a shortcut to launch a program via NFC, but I want to do more. For example, I want to create an NFC tag in my living room that will execute a Wake On LAN command. Right now, I have the option to launch the WOL program, but then I have to click a button on the screen, which is such a pain. I think I can do what I want using the Custom command line option which should "open a specific activity within an app", but I don't know how to figure out the custom activity command. This command would be formatted like "com.google.android.talk.BuddyListCombo", which I found in reference to Google Talk. How can I figure out custom commands for different programs? Thanks.
I beleive that you will have two choices.
1. Contact the application developer.
2. Launch application from Eclipse, then you will see the intent.
Or is there anybody else that has a better solution?

Could we hide the Google search bar in pixel launcher today?

Hi, everyone. I really like the design of original Android pie, I am using Havoc OS 2.0 which is a wonderful rom. Swap up on home button and switch apps is very attractive to me. But there is only one problem, The Google search, I am from mainland China and it's unconvinced for me to use this app, and to be honest I don't like this design that much either, so I wonder is there any way to hide Google search bar in the bottom? I tried disable Google app. But search bar is still in the bottom and when I touch it I went to the app information page of Google. The other third launchers aren't smooth as pixel launcher. :crying:
Could you please give me any suggestions? Thanks.

I couldn't find this in my phone. Maybe we are using different systems.

How to minimize persistent badge notification

Hello everyone,
I just installed LineageOS 17.1 with microG on my Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact, and I'd like to know how to minimize persistent notification (as you can see on the screenshot below)
Spoiler: Lineage OS Screenshot
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So, you can see 4 persistent notifications (Override DNS, AFWall+, Tasker and Fairemail). On my previous Stock ROM Android 9 on Sony, I was able to minimize them. I mean, no more persistent badge on top, but when I scrolled down the notification panel, I was able to see the text of those app (and being sure then that they are still running, especially for Override DNS and AFWall+). You can see an example in the picture below.

Is there any way to get this same feature on LineageOS 17.1 (it's Android 10, so I presume it have the same features than Android 9, and even more). Having 4 persistent badges is quite annoying to be honest.
Thanks for the help !
Cheers,
1) Long press on that target app (e.g. AFWall+)
2) Go to notifications
3) Choose the notification in the list which you want to edit
4) Choose "Silent"
5) Choose "Minimize"
Done
Oh my god, that was so simple...
Dude, thanks a lot !

Question on s20+

Hello, this is my first Samsung device. I have one question that I can’t seem to find an answer for. On all my past Android devices, when I was done using the phone I could just briefly push the Home button to lock the device, not having to use the side button. Is there w way to set this device up to do that? Right now I have to continually have to use the side button, which to me in annoying. Is there a way to enable the home button (or add a button) to lock the device. I’m also using nova launcher. Thank you.

To open or lock the device just double tick the screen.
You can double tap on screen to lock or unlock...or you can use this floating button to have the lock option...

Question Is there any way to change what the smart pen buttons do?

Hi. I've been using the tablet for about 9 months, and bought it with the smart pen when I bought it. I've found it quite useful for note taking. However, something that annoys me is that the buttons' function can't be changed in the settings, and only do soemthing different in the Xiaomi Notes app. Is there any third party app/rom/way to change the buttons function?
Key Mapper, you can find it on Google Play Store.

Record a trigger, press one of the buttons and set a new action afterwards.

Hello, there are times when I am writing (with the xiaomi smart pen) and I go to the bottom line (on the left side of the screen - approximately in the space of about 3 to 4 cm on the left side), it does not work. It is expected to touch somewhere on the screen more in the middle of the screen, so that it recognizes the writing, and I can go back to writing at the beginning of the line. How can I solve?
