expanded desktop on cm13 crashes - Honor 5X Questions & Answers

I'm running the latest nightly of cm13, xposed, and gravity box.
I wanted to use pie controls exclusively. But when I try to use gravity box to hide the navigation bar (under display tweaks), the phone reboots when I activate expanded desktop.
Any way to make this work?

I tried it, the same happened to me

Expanded Desktop mode for Grand Quattro

Im using a rooted Samsung Grand Quattro on JASP HD rom. I installed the Gravity Box to enable the expanded desktop mode on my phone. But it does not seem to work.
The notification bar does not hide itself. It still shows as a "white bar" on top of all the screens. Pls help if there is a fix for this issue.
Are there any other alternatives to enable the desktop mode on ?

Yes, I have it enabled. I was able to use other functions within gravity box like pie controls etc. The issue is with the expanded desktop. I have the option to hide both status bar and navigation bar and have it enabled.
I was able to debug this further...
When the expanded desktop mode is ON and if I refresh the SystemUI, it stays "expanded" for few seconds and go back to normal.
When I say normal, it means that the status bar is NOT shown but a white bar appears on all the screens. So I think its not refreshing the SystemUI or crashing the SystemUI ??

Any way to disable the Navigation Bar, Soft Keys, or On Screen Buttons in NOUGAT?

I can't live without LMT Launcher. With Marshmallow, Xposed modules can disable the navigation bar/soft keys/on screen buttons so LMT Launcher can be activated from the bottom. xposed is not available in Nougat yet. Is there another way to disable them in Nougat? I do have root.
Goto Settings-> Display -> Home touch buttons -> Hide Home touch buttons
Here you will get a list of apps, turn off for apps you need or all apps.
This only hides them.

This is great for hiding the nav bar, but doesn't really work with lmt Launcher. When you swipe from the bottom up, lmt doesn't appear. Instead the nav bar unhides. There's gotta to be a way to disable the Navigation bar completely with root. Anyone have any ideas?
The best way to hide the nav bar without Xposed in nougat is via rro layer theme. If your ROM supports rro layer themes you can install the theme from LMT's OP.
Edit build.prop in system qemu.hw.mainkeys=’, set to 0 (zero) to enable the onscreen / virtual softkeys. Set it to 1 (one) to disable them. Make sure Lmt or alternate nav system in place before reboot.
Works for me anyway

Thanks, this works great! I tried this while on stock marshmallow for tmobile g5 and phone wouldn't boot. Phone booted in Nougat and navigation bar was completely disabled.

I'm using (and always used) the build.prop trick without problems with stock MM, probably you messed up in something else when trying to edit it?

Fluid Navigation Gestures won't disable!

I recently installed Fluid Navigation Gestures. I loved it till I noticed that the default navigation bar is displayed in certain instances i.e. while in system settings, using keyboard etc. I tried to disable it from the app itself but nothing changes. I also tried to disable the Hide Navigation Bar option. No luck. I noticed that once I disabled the default navigation doesn't return and the gestures stop working. I haven't tried uninstalling the app not until I have re-enabled the default navigation bar (there's also a warning in the app that's along these lines).
If there's a way I can manually change the setting that hides the navigation bar. I could bring it back and then completely uninstall the app. I read somewhere that there's a magisk module that hides the navigation bar. Sadly, I cannot find that from the magisk repo.
I have an H930DS running 20p Oreo and Nova Launcher. TWRP and root. If this helps.

I found a way to disable it safely. I used the Quick tiles shortcut for FNG to pause/disable it. In the app itself I disabled the hide navigation bar option then uninstalled it after clear its data and cache. You should also revoke the permissions (draw over apps). That's it!

try to to disable fng via accessibility setting. did you grant permission via adb or root?
You can restore the navigation keys by running this adb command:
Windows:
adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,0
macOS:
./adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,0
Thereafter uninstall the app normally.
Your also advised to disable the app before you Force stop, Clear app data or Uninstall the app.
You want to hide the nav bar in all and all? Turn off all pauses under black list (in ng fluid app) and you would have no nav bar displayed anywhere.
Don't forget to modify triggers to how you want first
I love this app, this is a great gesture app I've ever used. But one problem I found I not able to restore auto-hidden nav bar in my Asus Max Pro M1 even I disable "Hide Navigation bar" option from App. I also tried it by disable app/clear app data/uninstalling app. But still I'm not able to get my auto-hidden nav bar again. Always it automatically auto hide, I have to swip up from bottom to bring it and after few seconds it automatically hide from screen.
I also tried following command.
Windows:
adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,0.
Please help

Toggle for manual rotation button?

I've been using this tablet for a few days now, and I've noticed that I don't have the manual rotation feature or a toggle for it. (It's the one that shows a little rotation button prompt when you turn your device, with 'auto-rotate' turned off.) Apparently, One UI devices should have a toggle in the sub-menu that appears when pressing the text in the Auto-rotate quick settings tile, but my Tab S3 doesn't show the toggle there. (Weirdly, my Note 8 also doesn't have the toggle but the feature is active anyway)
I did find a solution, which is an app called Tap'n'Turn that so far is working nicely, but I'd thought I'd ask if there were any other solutions that don't rely on a constantly running service.
Also, I'm running rorymc928's tweaked version of the T820 stock ROM based on the original Android Pie release (September 2019 I think), with Riru EdXposed. Thought I'd add that info just in case I've accidently done something that's hidden the toggle if it's supposed to be present. (On that note, I did try disabling GravityBox, but that made no difference.)

Navigation Bar after upgrade to One UI 2.1

Hi - my tablet upgraded yesterday to One UI 2.1. I use my tablet to play games frequently and the now the navigation bar is activated differently while doing so. Before the update I had full screen gestures enabled so that when I was playing games I could just single swipe the bottom area of the screen to perform navigation functions. There were no hints or symbols. After the update with the same settings... when i swipe the same area the first swipe brings up a small navigation bar (as well as notification bar at top) and then I have to swipe again for the navigation result. It's like the have the navigation bar on auto hide like a Windows task bar.
I was really used to the single swipe gesture in these games so am looking for a way to get back to that if possible. It appears that in the android interface and other apps it works as it used to. It is only in games that it now acts different. I checked my "game booster" settings and couldn't see anything different.
Thanks in advance!
