Try xposed framework and use the gravity box module should be able to tweak the navigation bar how you want.

Why don't you want to use gmd?
There's an app called "GMD auto hide soft keys" that hides the bottom software buttons. You then either tap or swipe the bottom of the phone and the buttons appear. You don't use gestures to navigate... You tap on the software keys once they appear. Then when you are done the software buttons dissappear completely.
Or where you looking for fully transparent software buttons that are always showing?

Xposed Framework has a G2 Module on Play Store that lets you assign the percentage of Navbar you want visible. I'm running at 20% on mine and its super small but very usable.

Update to 1.5 just came out, going to check it out now.

Forgive me if I am wrong, but I believe G2 Xposed is only for stock and stock-based ROMs. The OP is running CM and would probably have a lot more luck with something made for AOSP-based ROMs. I would suggest Gravity Box, it has these functions plus a ton of other tweaks that you can use as you please.
G2 Xposed work not well...

From what I understand CyanogenMod has an expanded desktop feature that can be enabled in the interface settings.

You can download a build.prop editor and add:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
Is there anyway to get rid of the icon or stop it from spinning?
Once we have root you'll be able to use an Xposed module to change it.
Thanks for the reply. I do know that. Just was wondering a way without root since don't have root yet. I can wait just find the icon overly annoying.
N/m
I have never used xposed but want to try it so i dont have to flash a new rom. Im just worried that i might get stuck in a boot loop and with no custom recovery yet i wont be able to fix it. Should i just wait for bootloader unlock or should i be fine. I have 4 kid and cant lose access to my phone in case of emergencies.
Edit**** i have installed xposed and so far everything i have tries in g3 tweakbox and gravity box has caused no problems.

I've been running xposed since root was released a couple days ago. If I have to question myself at all about a module, or a setting in a module working properly, I don't use it. I'm surprised there is so much drama going on about this. Yes, you can screw up things if you just go installing and activating modules and settings without researching first but, why would you do that?
Here are the modules I'm running :
Xposed GEL settings
JustBack(probably repetitive but it works)
G3 tweaksbox
YouTube adaway
And that Pandora one that got removed a while back

I personally won't use xposed until I am able to have backup (nandroid) . There are to many things that could go wrong if your new to it. Correct me if I'm wrong but you need to have root 1st before running xposed ?

You're wise to wait. We'll start seeing posts soon from those who've borked their shiz being to impatient to wait for an unlocked bootloader and recovery for backing up.

What settings have you experimented with (successfully)? I'm interested in installing the module, but I've had a lot of times in the past (with other phones) where I've gotten in a boot loop, which required me to disable xposed from recovery. That would be very difficult to fix without a custom recovery, so I'm torn on whether or not to install it. Not sure how long a custom recovery is going to take.
I don't mean to be the voice of unsound reason, but I think the concerns are overstated.
Use TB to backup your apps and the associated data/meta data.
If you jack your phone up you can use the factory recovery and restore from the readily available factory roms.
If you jack your phone up so bad that you cant get into recovery... you probably shouldn't be doing anything you find on this site.

This actually happened to me. I TiBued everything then tried to change the build.prop. Bootlooped, and I was stuck without a phone overnight until I saw the post over in the back to stock thread on how to get it back working (Sprint is a slightly different procedure). That said, I'm back to where I was without much lost.
I've been running xposed since root was released a couple days ago. If I have to question myself at all about a module, or a setting in a module working properly, I don't use it.

Ok guys ive done my research and it seems fairly simple to recover so im going to throw caution to the wind and install it after i get off work.

Has anyone used G3 Tweaksbox to chang the status bar icons with success? So far, I've been able to modify the clock, battery icon, hide some status bar icons, change the behavior of the home button, disable the charging notifications, and hide some navigation bar items, all without an issue. But I'd love to replace the signal icons with something more reasonable. Sprint's LTE/3G icons are such a waste of space. I assume that the status bar icon pack would change those, but I haven't tried.
I'm very tentative with the changes, because I must've borked my S4 5 or 6 times modifying stuff with the tweak module that was available for that. It wasn't a big deal then, because I could just flash the disabler, or restore to a nandroid backup. We obviously don't have that luxury yet. I'm sorry if this comes off as "drama" to some, but I'm just trying to avoid having to flash it back to stock if I can.
I'm using xposed with gravity box & xblast tools. Changed the status bar icons, color, & could only change navbar size. Can only go so small before it distorts but you can see it as you slide the size slider.
Almost forgot, & for whatever reason I can't edit post but, I also tried using the 3 dot menu, don't try, totally lost navbar. I panicked for a couple seconds but just went to settings/apps/all & uninstalled 3 dot menu right from there, rebooted & all was good.

It worked for me im running aosp icons
everything is awesome!!!!!!
The sprint specific stuff is where I personally would err on the side of caution as well. I'm very happy that it turned out well for those who changed those icons. A list of settings that are confirmed working on the sprint variant would be nice for other forum members to have in the OP.
I can confirm that "enable status bar sliding" in g3 tweaksbox works. Just be sure to uncheck automatic brightness under display in settings.

Did it get rid of the giant LTE and 3G icons? Are you able to return to stock icons, if you try? Thanks.

Hello
Anyone knows of a way to customize the front touch buttons? Like its height, adding multitask, sorting buttons
I know there is the tweakbox on xposed but it does not work correctly on my phone stock kitkat
Kindly tell me of another way if available, like editing a system file or so

You can flash a zip file that can modify the height. But the absolute easiest way would be to use xposed and G2tweaksbox.
G2 Tweaksbox works flawlessly on my phone - why doesn't it on yours ?
Sincerely,
I dnt know why
When i install it, the settings app stops working

Greetings!
I've been searching for a way to truly disable the NavBar on Samsung Oreo, I don't want to just hide the NavBar, I want to truly disable it but I haven't found a way to do this on Oreo yet.
Can anyone help me find a way to achieve this???

It's called "hide navigation bar", you can find it in the download section of the app.
Without root
Is there a way to do it without a root? Like this used to work https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/getting-rid-galaxy-s8-navigation-bar-t3659742

I think I have found a solution. Please check my later comment on this thread "https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/getting-rid-galaxy-s8-navigation-bar-t3659742/post76057934#post76057934"

Hey thx, it worked. This will do for now.
I do have space on the keyboard just like you do. Hopefully someone comes along who can fix it.

I always ended up spacing out space under the keyboard in the other older method anyway so didn't really notice. I find it's more natural to type a bit higher up.
If it's helped please do check out my thread I made on the method and thumbs it up for others
Hey everyone, I actually found a way to remove status bar completely and not have the space under the keyboard. It requires ADB so you'll need a computer with ADB drivers and us debugging enabled on your device. Depending on your situation (what kind of navigation you want to use; OnePlus gestures, Xhome bar etc) this might not work. I currently use OnePlus gestures. There's a setting you enable to remove the navigation bar but you need to give the app ADB access. You'll as well need an app to enable immersion (I use systemui tuner) The result is no navigation bar. This is the only thing I've got working well for me and OnePlus gesture app can be customized a lot.
I hope this helped, and if anyone needs clarification I'll give it.
