No need to uninstall the app, just restore the nav bar to its default settings. In an ADB shell, type this:

settings delete secure sysui_nav_bar

If that doesn't work, try this

settings put secure sysui_nav_bar "space,home;back;recent,menu_ime"

Uninstalled, now I have the spacing issue. Will these commands work? I don't want to delete my navbar.

Edit: Bit the bullet. First line of code worked! Back to stock s8 oreo. Thanks.

Any reason why we can't have double tap for key code?

Only feature that is missing really.

Ok, so I downloaded the beta version from the play store, granted it the root permissions, passed the compatibility test but for some reason I cant find the 'rotation suggestion' checkbox.
Am I doing something wrong or it just doesn't support my device?
Device : moto g5s plus ROM : PixelExperience

Navigation bar -> Rotate suggestion
That's where it should be.
Check the app-version if it isn't there: version 0.8.10b

For me, the apps keeps crashing after it passes the compatibility test on Pixel (1st gen), and I can't do anything with it...

Any ideas?

So, any luck..? :)

I'm really anxious to use a shortcut to get the screen to sleep without the Power button. :D

That’s possible but there won’t be actual gestures.
I don't care about the actual gestures, just for visual result.
A pill-like button as a home button, a back button on the left side, and no recent app's button (but if you touch the blank area that the button supposed to be there, the recent apps will pop up in the screen).

Thanks for replying.

    The latest beta release (0.5.0) will include Tasker event plugin, which allows you to trigger Tasker event when pressing button.
    This is a heavily requested feature, so I will post a tutorial here about how to use it.

    1. Configure a custom button as you would, but this time, set button type to "Tasker event" instead of "Keycode".
    2. Open tasker and press add in profiles tab
    3. Select "Event"
    4. Select Plugin -> Custom Navigation Bar
    5. Click on pencil icon to edit event
    6. Select the profile you have the button set up. If you set up the button you want in "Navigation bar" section of the app, select "None"
    7. Select the button that you have set up. If the option is greyed out, check if you done step 1 correctly
    8. Save the event and add an action for that tasker profile.

    Note:
    When pressing the button first time, if a dialog pops up, select "Custom Navigation Bar" and press "Always"

    But remember, this is a large feature that requires many changes in the application code base. It might be buggy or breaks something.
    And thanks for all your kind supports. :)

    Kindly write the command here which we need to give to grant permission, tried both terminal emulator and adb, but unable to do it,

    I'm guessing it's this:

    adb shell pm grant xyz.paphonb.systemuituner android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS

    Thanks for making this app, OP. Check out my series of tutorials for potential uses of this: https://www.xda-developers.com/tag/android-o/

    As for how to add custom icons, I figured it out here: https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-add-custom-icons-to-the-navigation-bar-in-android-o/ and OP implemented it in his app ;)

    I've posted an article about this here: https://www.xda-developers.com/nav-...ck-nougat-all-along-and-it-never-needed-root/

    Prepare to get a lot of attention towards your app in the morning when the blog mill starts rolling ;)
