[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] theyangman:
So I am a LONG time Samsung user. I've had every generation of the Note's and recently moved to the Pixel XL after returning my Note 7.

The phone is great and silky smooth so far but my biggest gripe and I know this is something I could become accustomed too if I had too but I was hoping that maybe there was an easy way to swap the placement of the two buttons.

On Samsung's the back button is on the right and the recent apps button on the left. Almost all other Androids are swapped (The Pixel is no different obviously) but trying to re-wire 6 plus years of back button pressing is going to be a lot of work and I have my fingers crossed there is a way to to do this easily within settings somewhere that I have missed.

The buttons themselves are merely icons on the screen, so swapping their positions doesn't seem unreasonable, I know you can do it with a rooted phone but I obviously don't care to void my day old phone's warranty quite yet. I'd understand if they were illuminated buttons on the bezel like the Samsung phones, but these are icons.

Anyone figure this out?

Thanks in advance!
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] crawfordmd:
Have you tried the app All in One Gestures? I don't have my Pixel XL yet, but I use the All in One Gestures app to swap the back and recent buttons on my Galaxy S6.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] hlxanthus:
First off, unlocking the bootloader and modifying does not void the warranty on Google phones. There are no software methods included to swap the navbar icons. Only way remaining is to unlock the bootloader and look for a way to mod it.

Custom ROM only the?

Wasn't there a mod that went around with the Nexus 6P that added more options to UI Tuner for NavBar? Could this be done?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] mikaole:
Just change them in system ui tuner.

If you don't have it. Pull down statusbar. Press the settings icon and hold it for about 5 secs.

Now you should have it in settings.

Go to navbar

There you can just pull the symbols by holding the = and pull them up or down.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Myrrhman:
Is this working for anyone ?

I mean, i get the system ui tuner, but theres no option for the nav bar.

I remember on the N6P we had to flash a zip first to make it visable.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] toknitup420:
It won't work. That option is not enabled by default. You need to decompile system ui apk and add a line of code to tuner_prefs.xml for nav bar to show up in system ui tuner.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Myrrhman:
AH, yes. Thanks. You're right, now I remember.

So basically no root , no swapping
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] toknitup420:
You can do it in TWRP using the file manager in there. No root needed. Just temp boot TWRP swap the apks and reboot.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Myrrhman:
You're right again ! Man, I'm so out of it. Since owning the pixel I haven't flashed / rooted / modified anything :laugh:

Thanks so much for your help !
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] xocomaox:
Yes, you can do it with root or booting twrp. One day Google will allow you to change this within the stock firmware.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] coolhandz:
Did you push and hold the cog wheel when you pull down the notification screen? You have to do it for a long 5 seconds, then the option for system UI should appear when you go into settings.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] coolhandz:
I would assume that since you are rooted, that you have TWRP installed or at least know how to do it?

I'd flash WETA Mod 3.1. https://xdaforums.com/pixel-xl/themes/mod-weta-ui-mods-t3491181

Gives you a bunch of customization options including adding NavBar tuner back in the System UI. Easier I think than going in and messing with system files. At least IMO.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] AgentJz:
Wait I can install TWR P without having unlock Bootloader?

No.

Hard to believe this still isn't a stock feature. Just shows the ignorance of Google is just as bad as Apple in some ways.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] pkelly517:
Meh. It's a year and a half old thread that had 23 posts.

Just because you think it should be included doesn't mean more than 20 others do. This thread is proof of it.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] lafester:
Point is it's a simple thing, no reason not to enable it. How many people want it or post about it is not relevant.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] pkelly517:
Not every simple thing is included in AOSP.

It would be simple to include the ability to chance the color of navbar buttons. It's not included. Adding the complexity to the overall code base is not worth the effort to appease a dozen loudmouths.

What many people want is terribly relevant.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Tulsadiver:
You can swap these without tuner and without even decompiling your SystemUIGoogle.apk. Just unzip it, rename the res /layout/recent _apps.xml and back.xml. Just switch their names. Zip back up and rename SystemUIGoogke.zip from zip to apk. I like mine switched as well.

Not in this case. And it's there already, but not implemented.

#road2Holo

Description

Since I'm tired "new" material design. I decided to return to my favorite interface on my OnePlus One - Holo interface from KitKat. This theme is a modification of Holo theme and was inspired by Hexo theme of Cyanogen Inc from CyanogenMod 11s in 2014.

ROM Tested

- CyanogenMod 13 Nightly (Probably CM12.1 support :confused:)

- Nothing... :(

What's themed ?

- Android

- SystemUI

- Settings

- AudioFX

- AOSP Browser

- AOSP Gallery

- CMFileManager

- CM Updater

- Calculator

- PackageInstaller

- etc :confused:

(like at "Holo Theme")

Previews

TODO: Refresh screenshots ? :confused:​

Installation

- Install "Hexo Legacy"

- Go to Settings > Themes

- Select Hexo Legacy > Check all options (or the ones you want) > Apply

- Reboot (advisable).

Troubleshooting

- in case of Force Closes do not forget to describe your problem and provide a log (Using CatLog app for example)

- post screenshot and describe your problem

Credits:

- Me for CM theme

- Google for Holo interface and icons

- Cyanogen Inc. for original Hexo theme

Download

You can download from here: https://github.com/BeYkeRYkt/Hexo-Legacy-Theme/tree/master/apks

I use one o those, and if you make the headphone hole in the case it will fit, BUT I cant use Screen protectora o tempered glass because its not compatible with the case, Im think that is because of tje differece in size.

I'm using a Case Mate "Tough Stand" made for the force. No headphone jack opening, but this case is awesome. Adds very little bulk and has built in stand for viewing. Got it at the local Verizon store during the BOGO promotion.
[Moto Z Play Accessories] jbarajasp:
I would not recommend this. The jack and several microphones get covered. Also, the phone is slightly taller and wider than force so the protection may be compromised.

*I have both phones and have tested several force cases on play
[Moto Z Play Accessories] metalmike6:
I probably won't be doing it, but it's literally a half of a millimeter wider and taller. If you drill out the mic holes and headphone jack I hardly see it being a problem. But after looking there aren't many more cases for the force that would make me want to go through the trouble honestly.

I am unable to boot into bootloader on ATT model :/
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jinkerz9430:
Lol as expected from Sprint and AT&T. Dont get me wrong, i wish they had bootloader unlocked because the more bootloaders unlocked for different carriers, the more chances to duplicate the amount of developments/roma/mosa/kernels etc.... Now, having only Tmobile as the only one with unlocked bootloader, well, devs who use carrier such as AT&T and Sprint might get further away from developments on LG V20. (I'm a LG V20 Tmobile variant owner)
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] cordell12:
im not to familiar with LG, but the correct way is to power off the device, hold volume down, insert USB cable?

one would think even if locked, it could still enter the bootloader. adb works, and when i reboot recovery, i get to recovery, but when selecting reboot bootloader, the device starts. interestingly enough, it will enter in adb sideload mode ;)

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] CerveCesar:
✒ SPen. Let me give you my 3 cents.

What is not: resistive or capacitive pen. Meaning aplying pressure (Like and old iPhone) will not make it work like the resistive pens. Nor will holding it with your hand or touching skin-pen combination. You can put it on a vise-grip and it will work.

What it is: It works like the sensor on your car keys. Where it has a coil inside and if you place it close enough to a magnetic source you will get feedback or pen strokes. The Note 7 has a metal sheet used as a magnetic source behind its regular screen.

What you need on a Non-Note phone is a "Capacitive" pen. Made of all metal some with battery and make direct skin-pen to screen contact for it to work like the SPen. Unfortunately nobody wants metal rubbing a glass screen obviously ?
