I love my screen space, so my only concern with the LG G2 was the on screen Nav Bar eating up my precious screen. So I began my hunt to find a solution, now I am on T-mobile and development is starting off slower than the other carriers so after some searching here is my solution to remove the Nav Bar and LMT (pie control) on my LG G2 T-mobile (801).
Step 1: Download and install GMD Auto Hide Soft Keys https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gmd.hidesoftkeys&hl=en Pro version is required for the last step to work.
Step 2: Download latest LMT Launcher v1.912 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330150&page=686 1. Install apk 2. Open app 3. Swipe Activate Tochservice to ON 4. Check auto start 5. Open Set Gesture Input and select #4 6:The rest are customization options, user choice
Step 3: Open GMD Auto Hide Soft Keys 1. Swipe Enable to ON 2. Check Hide Soft Keys 3. Check Start on Boot 4. Make sure Notification is not checked (Pro) 5. Open Navigation option and click none (Pro)
Make sure you are rooted and give permissions every time you are asked
Enjoy
This is tested on T-mobile but I do not see any reason why it would not work on other versions of the G2
What's the purpose of the LMT launcher?

Nicely done! I'll give this a shot tonight.
Hi i'm searching for this all day
Finally the solution was autohide PRO..
In this way both app will run in background occupying RAM, right? Amount?
Forget LMT and auto hide pro...There is a app that is ALOT better than both of them.Search for UDN (ultimate dynamic navbar) It will let you hide the big LG soft keys completely,and replace them with its keys that are fully customisable and can be as tiny as you want them to, and they can hide also (same as Auto hide pro).Just remember to unhide the LG keys from settings before you off it tho.
sorry for double post
I don't get it when I follow the instructions and the final step when I click PRO, I lose my Nav bar and have no soft keys at all

You have to completely set up LMT first, try setting the trigger area to the bottom and right side so when getting rid of the nav bar you can use the pie controls.

LMT allows you to swipe from a chosen trigger point. It gives you pie control like nav bar.

To hide the soft keys without any app add this to the bottom of your build.prop
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
Do it with a build.prop editor so you get the right permissions and so on.
Don't forget to set up LMT first.

Is there a way to auto-hide the top notification bar just like the app mentioned and its effects on the navigation bar?
I have been using Android phones for years, but never did I find, after hours of searching, something like this. Full screen potential.
What I'm asking is like what an app named " Smart Statusbar" does. The only problem with this is that it only works with apps that hide the notification bar, not all apps.
Thanks!

Ok, so knock on always works with a third party launcher, but you have to knock the status bar to knock off right? Well, I just found that sslauncher has a double tap action option, and while sleep isn't built in, if you have xposed, and gravity box installed you can put it to sleep with a double tap. Select double tap action in sslauncher preferences, select gravity box, select sleep. Then you can double tap anywhere on the launcher and put the phone to sleep

There is an app called screen off, you have gestures in any third party launcher and go to activities and then go to the screen off app and select screen off.

There are a lot more advantages to xposed then just having knock off. I removed the nav keys and replaced them with pie (Instant screen size increase), changed the status bar icon colors, enabled slide across the status bar brightness control, cleaned up the notification shade, and much much more.

Rather than using pie, I disabled the nav bar and use Ultimate Dynamic Navbar instead and change the background to transparent, and the size to minimum. Since the size of the navbar is so small, it doesnt' intrude as much even when I try to click on the content near the bottom of the screen. I never like pie that much since I have to siwpe up and then select one of the buttons. It just seems to be unintuitive.

I can definitely see where the pie can be unintuitive, for me personally I've gotten so used to it that it's like a single motion to make a selection, and it feels very second nature now, but I love changing things up so I might give ultimate dynamic a whirl sometime.

Thank you for the tip. Very useful.
I just switched over to Nova Launcher because I have my homescreen set up nice from previous devices.However, when I did this, I lost the a couple things I can seem to get back while using Nova; 1) Smart Notification (the LG widget showing weather and what not) and 2) double tap screen to lock.
With double tap to lock I did try to use the double tap gesture in the Nova Gesture settings but it isn't an option and I can't find it in the other choices.
Anyone know if there is a way to get those back?

Install the G3TweaksBox xposed module. There's an option for the Knock On Nav Bar in there and it works just fine with Nova.
Not sure about the smart Notification deal I don't use it.

Double tap notification bar to sleep. Works without any mods.
Download this app and set Nova Launcher's double tap gesture to open it.
As for the widget, well, it's pretty common that widgets from LG/Samsung/HTC et al don't work with third-party launchers. Unfortunately there isn't a solution.

This is a shame. I figured this would be one of the first mods due to the popularity and convenience of on-screen buttons. The bezel on the Note 4 is so small at the bottom that it wouldn't even look like a waste of space to have a navigation bar. The capacitive buttons are so easily pressed due to the small bezel. I don't mind this, but I wish the option for on-screen was included by samsung. I also hate the "back" button on the right side because I'm left-handed and can't reach it with my dominant hand. That should be reversible as well. Is that possible?
I also recommend lmt. The back button is instant.

Did exactly that as soon as I got it. Although I actually prefer back key on right, just find note too wide to reach across, being left handed. Turned off the key light, not to cause confusion, and I guess it took a day to train muscle memory.

Ah, thanks! What would I change to simply disable the Recent and Back keys completely? I have on screen keys now. I still want to keep the home button because I don't accidentally press it.
Actually, I just put a # in front of the line for app_switcher, which worked. What do I change or remove to disable the capacitive Back hardware key? Thanks!
EDIT: figured it out!
To disable the Recent and Back hardware keys (capacitive buttons), edit /system/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl and put a # in front of these 2 lines:
key 158 BACK
key 254 APP_SWITCH
Save and reboot!

The only thing about let and pie control in general is that it auto dissappear. When multiple back key is required, it is a pain.
Which is why I have resorted to using side key panel when I don't want to use capacitive. I edited settings database to add transparency to side panel menu as well as having a hint bar dissappear. I moved it to the comfortable zone for my thumb, and trigger it without fail. It says on till I press outside of the side menu.
It is working great for me. Although I would rather have standard nav bar for purely visual reasons as well as more modding options.

I too am a lover of a static nav bar on my Galaxy Devices.
I now have a SM-N910P now and am frustrated as heck at not being able to get it functional here, on a rooted stock NK2. I used to run SlimKat 4.4.2 on my SPH-L710 and loved the navbar that they baked into the ROM. SlimLoli is maturing for the Note 4, but it doesn't yet have any S-Pen support baked in. This fact, when coupled with how well Samsung and Sprint have done with TouchWiz on the Note 4 have caused me to hold off on putting a custom ROM on the device.
So, what to do.?. Editing buildprop does indeed cause the looping system UI FC. UDN is an excellent solution barring one issue, and that it is doesn't have a means to dedicate a portion of the display to the nav bar. It just overlays on top of the launcher's/app's UIs. I'd be willing to pay for a solution that fixes this.
Pie controls have never really clicked with me. Not yet being willing to move away from NK2, I find that I am wondering if there is a way to force a portion of the bottom of the screen to be entirely dedicated to a specific app, all of the time. As depicted in this screeny, UDN overlays and it is frustrating as hell.
Anyone have any ideas yet?

I was looking for a way to completely disable it but I don't think it's possible without root. I enabled expended mode via ADB but my ultimate goal was to not make it appear when I scroll up from the bottom so I can use apps such as all in one gesture
There are some ways, but i guess they all need root. there is an xposed module : xposed edge pro, that can remove the navbar. or you can change the build.prop hw.mainkeys=1
i did that but the thing is when you completely remove the navbar every app that is not set to 18:9 scaling will not load. just give a black screen. that is not a problem as you can just switch all apps to 18:9 scaling in settings. except some few system dialogs that will not show anymore like the longpress menu when e.g. clicking on a link in chrome or on a message to copy it.
iv been on that issue for a long time now. it is definitely related with completely removing the navbar as the system then does not scale some screens accordingly anymore.
i tried the build.prop, whereas there are more settings related with the screen and ratio (ro.lge.app_scaling=1) (ro.lge.aspect.ratio=18:9) and (qemu.hw.mainkeys=1) i dont know what the first two settings really do but i tried different settings
then there is the possibility via the xposed edge app, which does not change the build.prop. so it hast to change it in some other way, i dont know.
and i found a thread to change scaling via the service menu *#546368#*930# -svc menu -force long display mode -on from this thread.
ive tried all different settings combined in different ways and was not able to remove the navbar without that problem.
if anybody has more knowledge i would be glad to have some help
cheers DK

Agreed. I had an issue with the nav bar NOT appearing when I wanted. It kept disappearing in my corporate email and I had to force it up from the bottom to appear. I was puzzled, why is this happening only with this app? I finally figured out how to go into the nav bar settings and disable that for that app. For some reason that app (called Nine) was enabled to hide the nav bar.
I have the opposite problem. Except for when I'm watching videos, I do want to see the nav bar. This screen is tall enough that I don't need a totally "immersive" experience just reading email or looking at news articles.
And I use Nova launcher, of course. Who uses stock launcher?

Nobody. Except launchers still have nothing to do with what OP was looking for. I switch between Nova and action launcher and would recommend them to anyone not using as well, just baffled that he asked how to disable navbar entirely and the answer was install Nova...followed by the assertion that he needs to be told this even though its not what he asked and there was nothing to suggest he's not already using a 3rd party launcher

I found how to hide the nav bar for specific apps months ago (and indeed have all of the available apps flicked to off), but I cannot find the universal switch anywhere. Where exactly is it?
Under Settings/Display/Home Touch Buttons, I only see three options: Button combination, Color, and Hide Home Touch Buttons.
The Hide Home Touch Buttons screen is the one I found months ago, but I don't see a universal switch there.

For me, when I go to Home Touch Buttons in settings and click "Hide Home Touch Buttons" it gives me a list for every app where I can toggle to hide the home buttons. There's also a toggle option at the top of this page that says "Lock/hide icon" -- that's the universal button.
Though this doesn't hide the home buttons on the home screen for me. Does it hide them on the home screen for anyone else? I can't figure out how to do that and my Nova launcher prime doesn't have the option.

That's not a universal on/off switch for the nav bar system-wide, is it?

Ohhh I think you're right. I guess I don't know where the universal button is either.
Is there any mod or anyone who can develop oneplus gestures available for 5t or 6 for lg v30 instead of navbar?
Before anyone suggest xda gestures app i don't want that...! Purely gestures on lg stock firmware?
there is a small program - navigation gestures.
available at playstore. it simulates the gesture control with swipes, but has some drawbacks i couldn't fix, so decided to uninstall it. but you may try if it fits to you.
drawback?

I also tried Navigation Gestures (even bought it) but switched to Fluid Navigation, I feel it works better but still not as well as my former OP6 or iPhone but well enough to keep on my V30.
Theres a line at the bottom, when i type something often tapping on this line and phone goes to home screen
no other way

In this (Fluid NG) app you can set the lowest sensitivity. I think it might help.

I've been using this app for a while with no issues

I also use a substratum layer to set my nav bar to 0 height so I don't have to use some weird work around to hide the nav bar. It's been a good combo for me

That will work. But I'd rather just get rid of the nav bar completely. When I used the app to hide it, the nav bar would sometimes come back

I think stock navigation bar is better than OnePlus gestures and fluid navigation. I tried both and believe me my hands get so tired of swiping up and down. Buttons are good
