How to detect full screen gesture mode in Mi devices programmatically

Question

I am writing an Android application that needs to calculate the height of screen to display content correctly. But the height I got in Mi devices (Mi 9 SE) wasn't correct when switching to full screen gesture mode. How can I get the real height of the screen, or check if user turned on full screen gesture mode in Mi devices?

I have tried these suggestions.

After searching and experimenting, I have found the only solution: How to detect full screen gesture mode in android Q.

Instead of using ViewCompat.setOnApplyWindowInsetsListener() function, I just have to create a WindowInsets instance for the current context, then check the getSystemGestureInsets() for each edges. This is how I implemented to make a React Native's native module.

If you need a listener to detect every changes, the solution above has done well on Android app. If you want this listener for React Native, you might want to find another approach, since I haven't made it work.

Well, this would work only on android Q or higher Xiaomi devices – Shreemaan Abhishek Aug 16 '20 at 11:45
@AbhishekChoudhary. Absolutely. The fullscreen gesture mode is only available for Android Q and higher version, which makes old methods not function correctly. – Minh Dao Aug 17 '20 at 07:15

A very simpler answer: Don't use DisplayMetrics. Just make any view take full width and height of the screen (MATCH_PARENT) then get it's dimensions, it well give accurate numbers.
