nexus-4-navfix's Issues

Says it works on LMY47V - mine doesn't

I have issue with soft buttons on my Nexus 4. I reverted it back to LMY47V (was on LMY48I) - patch doesn't work...

Android 6 custom rom

It's possible for you to make a update for the android 6 custom rom for nexus 4?

navfix needed for cm13.

currently my nexus 4 have upgrade to cm13 but the deadzone of the navigation bar still exist. please help.

Leave Immersion Mode

Hello. Thank you for this fix. So much better than using handy soft keys. Bit I do have one problem: using an app in immersion mode, when I try to leave by swiping from the border that has the problem it does not come out as normal. I have to swipe from the top to unhide the soft keys. Is it common? Maybe the same kind of border deadzone is used to this feature.

Any way to make this working for other phones?

For example my girlfriend has a Huawaii Honor Holly and alo got the deadzone now.
Would there be a way you release a fix for those?

Stopped working - LMY47V

Hi @gkraynov , Thanks for the life saver patch. It was working fine with Android 5.1.1, but suddenly it stopped working. Then I tried to update it again, but no luck. I also tried to flash previous android versions and their update patch, but still not working.

Do you have any idea, what went wrong ?
Thanks,
Nimit

LMY48T

Hello, Gregory.
I haven't found version for lmy48t. I wonder if u have it?
U can also answer in russian if it's ok.
Thank u very much!

Any chance of a prebuilt for LMY48I soon?

Hi Grigoriy, hope you are doing well :) ... I know you don't have a Nexus 4 anymore so please let me know if you have time to create a prebuilt update.zip for LMY48I and I'll be very happy to test it !

Could you please, update the zip file for Android 5.1.1?

Google has just release Android 5.1.1 for Nexus 4. Could you please update this patch for it?

I saw that your patch is denied in AOSP and we need to manually patch with your update.zip.

Thank you.

Cyanogenmod 12.1

Спасибо за отличный фикс! Все работает. Скажи а на кастомной прошивке будет работать? cyanogenmod 12.1 например? Или можно сделать для него версию? Будем очень благодарны!)

Thanks thread

Unfortunately, I can't continue this little project due to broke of my phone. You can say thanks here for work already done. This could improve my Resume/CV and probably will signal phone manufacturers to review hardware issues more carefully.
Thank you, thanks everybody! I'm happy that you have working phone even on 5.1.0 ROM.
