TROUBLESHOOTING:

Setting up ADB: www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/

- If your system navigation bar keeps hiding itself, run this ADB command:

adb shell settings delete global policy_control

Or, hit the 'PROBLEMS?' button on the main screen and select the option that describes this issue.

- If you uninstalled the app without turning off 'Hide Navigation Bar,' run this ADB command:

adb shell wm overscan reset

- If your lock screen icons are cut off, go to Settings>>Behavior>>Blacklisting and enable Don't Hide NavBar on Lock Screen
