Android has a boolean for showing navigation bar or not. In frameworks/base/services/core/java/com/android/server/policy/PhoneWindowManager.java
from AOSP, mHasNavigationBar
got config from com.android.internal.R.bool.config_showNavigationBar
and can be overwrited by property qemu.hw.mainkeys
.
In the past, all tours tells people using qemu.hw.mainkeys
to show/hide navbar, but I found that some apps/games will not hide the bar while in fullscreen mode. So I think using this way is better.
This overlay will overwrite config_showNavigationBar
from framework.
- Installer will detect if your device has navbar or not. If you has that then it will install the hidden one.
- The detect script can be found here.
- I only test in 8.0/8.1, but RRO should work after 7.0.
- If it didn't effect, that means your rom didn't support it or it add a whitelist for overlay apps.
- If you want to disable hardware key (HOME, BACK, APP_SWITCH), copy your keylayout config from
/vendor/usr/keylayout
to$MODDIR/system/vendor/usr/keylayout
and delete the line hasHOME
,BACK
,APP_SWITCH
.
- R1: Remove
qemu.hw.mainkeys
if OEM used it. - R2: fix detect script.
- R3: fix cert issue.
