Hi I got OnePlus 6t and I have a problem with the navigation bar . Always but always is white when I am using a colour application a game or something and become black if I use a white application like chrome for example. I can understand this is a future to prevent screen burning but for me is so annoying. My wife got s9 plus and the navigation bar become transparent plus you got the option to change it black or how you like it.
I don't know if is only me or I am too fussy but is so bad so fuxxking bad I try to speak with some guys in the community app I try to tell them a future abut this but they not doing anything..
Now I flash beta 4 hoping that they done something. Guess what . Nothing
Try the app "Navbar Apps" in the Play Store.
Nothing against the author of the app mentioned but having to give out that much access to your device to change something that should be part of the theme is a design weak point.
If you're Rooted you can install Xposed and use BlackNavigationBar and it works flawlessly.
rahlquist .
Yeah you are right they can add this future to change the nav bar easy.

i will root it back just for this future ,i didn't know that xbosed is working on android 9 , i will check a tuturial on xda forum
Hi all,
i didn't want to make a whole thread just to ask if any have found/use a app similar to what "Custom Navigation Bar" by paphonb used to do?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-custom-navigation-bar-customize-t3590967
i dont want to change colors or add images like other apps, i just want to add a back button on the right side same as the left one for the pie navbar. is not about swap the back button to the right, is having 2 back icons and change the image to dots.

So Actually I was going to write a thread about the two themes present in the samsung's TouchWizUI: White and Blue.
My Galaxy Tab 2 P3100 i.e. tab shows me only white theme while the phones shows the blue one.
But while messing with the LCD density I found that the firmware Actually has both of the themes.
so I started experiments on my tab with different LCD Densities and found that while we have both of the themes but we actually have all the three UIs with us too.
It's been the 4.1.1 update that made me loose my fav tabletUI and make it to the PhabletUI.
By changing Lcd density, we can see the changes in the UI.
Please see the attachments for Screenshots.
Range:
Below 140 is the TabletUI with the white theme.
Between 140 and 160 is the PhabletUI with white theme
Above 160 is the PhoneUI with the BLUE theme
though changing LCD density to other than 160 will make the touchwiz home and keyboard app to crash.
but using alternatives [launcher and keyboard app] can make it cool.
also densities greater then 160 [phoneui] will also cause the camera app to crash and the UI will change the camera Icon with a cute little green android.
Review:
TabletUI:
1) Samsung white theme is seen
2) There is no bar on the top
3) Notification bar opens from bottom
4) Battery percentage Is displayed
5) Even on rotation to the landscape, button bar [The one with the back, home and recent buttons on, sorry don't know the name for it] stayes at the bottom
6) In lockscreen only bottom bar is present
PhabletUI:
1) Samsung white theme is seen
2) Bar on either side of screen i.e. Notification bar on top and the action bar [let us give it a name] at bottom.
3) notification comes from top
4) notification bar doesn't fill the screen
5) no battery percentage indicator
6) On rotation each bar stays at there respective position.
7) lock screen differs from tabletUI as there is only top bar not the bottom one.
PhoneUI:
1) Samsungs's beautiful blue theme is seen.
2) UI almost same as PhabletUI with each bar on either side of the screen
3) Notification fills the home screen like what happen in a phone
4) When orientation changed to landscape, the Bottom action bar shifts to the right
5) Gestures in the bottom bar used to open google ow is not present.
6) Battery indicator is blue in color while it is green on the other two modes
7) When connected to PC via USB, Battery indicator neither shows a cross mark nor it shows charging.
8) Settings menu now don't have the dual panel
9) Camera icon replaced by android icon
100 Camera app is crashed
I also see a little performance boost when in phoneUI made.. may be because of no TouchWiz mode.
[Note:
Remember to install a launcher before changing the LCD density because it will make your TouchwizUI to crash and you will not able to select your apps from the app drawer.
Rather you can also put your build.prop editor in the homescreen shortcuts so than you can use it from there. but make it before the changes, you will not be able to make changes in homescreen shortcuts as it is a part of TouchWiz home and on opening, it will crash.
Your replies are appreciable.

This is why its best not to mess with stuff you dont understand lol... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2081640
Easiest way to change modes is to use a custom ROM. AOKP being the better choice. DPI changer built into the ROM If you wish to add a custom theme ( set it to 159, default being 160) and you can switch modes via ROM control and a quick reboot. I'm sure the OP knows what hes doing , just giving some advice to less experienced users.

I know that custom roms have better control on modes but the motive of this post to tell others that we already have the three modes with us along with the two themes ON STOCK ROM.
For those who don't want to shift to a custom rom or argue that we lost our UI after updates. This post is for them.
Less experience lol
I agree with you totally , but the amount of threads in this forum where people have messed with stuff not knowing what they are doing are plenty. Hey I was one of them when I joined the forums :crying: I've had bootloops by the dozen and even totally bricked a device by flashing the wrong thing on to it , an expensive mistake to make.
I actually like the stock ROMs , just that i prefer total control over the ROM i use, a personal choice ....same as yours ! I was just offering advice to new users. Basically make sure you know what you are doing before you do it or use something that's designed for the job if you dont.
Finding out how to recovery from a bootloop and how to restore a device from a nandroid is a must.
I do find it strange why people stay on stock , not even with root access.Surely that's what the spirit of Android is about, what makes our tabs different from the locked down nature of the iPad. Obviously its the users choice as they paid for the device , just an observation.
Have fun with your DPI

we won't learn to stand unless we fall.
okie I was infant about the bootloops. but I've learned from it.
I've previously use many custom roms and flashed my xperia many times. even bricked it a lot. Flashed , bricked and recovered.
I guess thats how u learn.
and regarding staying at stock was because this tab and its TouchWiz is new to my hand and want to learn it before trying something.
Trust me custom roms are not so far from me.
Amen brother ! If you have never had a bootloop you're not an Android fan
I actually got the phone UI by mistake on AOKP M1 > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33898491&postcount=440 ,seems really strange on a tablet.But was fun messing with it. As for stock....Just about to flash the new official-ish JB on to my tab and give it a spin , be rude not to IMO.
Get a custom ROM on your tab you will love it, what you got to lose ? Can always flash back.

Tablet UI all day long
I just updated my N7 to the new KitKat, the status bar and soft keys only become transparent in Google experience launcher home screen (need to install GEL mannually), but within the app it is still two black bars. As nexus 7's screen real state constantly blocked by these two bars (terrible in landscape mode especially), I was wondering if there is a mod (e.g. mod the systemUI) to make both bars transparent.
This is certainly achievable as I have seen Samsung tabs all have transparent status bar out of box, and in 4.3 there was CyanogenMod that made it transparent, but there is nothing like these for KitKat
I prefer this solution other than hidding the softkey bars (such as GMD) because i don't want to change GEL, and I know in the future , new apps will be able to leverage the new immerse fullscreen so this problem is completely solved, i don't want to affect that function, but in the same time, i want old apps still able to use more screen real states.
please let me know if there is a solution to make this possible.
Thanks everyone!
Any one has figured this out?
Try this to see if it helps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2529594
Thanks, but Google experience launcher only provide transparent status bar and softkeys on homescreen, not inside app
to make it work inside an app, need to deeply mod the system UI file, in 4.2 CM10.2 has done it before successfully!

So as title says, how can i get transparent navigation bar system wide? Please do not offer pie controls or stuff like that, i just want navigation buttons on completely transparent background just like on home screen but system wide. Any ideas?
+1
I'd like this too, especially since I heard about burn-in on oled screens. But mostly I just like the way it looks on my home screen now.
Maybe there's a CMTE or layers theme that offers this?
No one knows? Doesnt sound like such a hard customisation, there are loads of navbar mods, but im yet to find one to do what i want
Yeah would love too see this myself. I'm not sure why Google doesn't have a way to do it as it would make Android look so much better then black bars.
Seems impossible for now, looked everywhere didnt find a solution
I have been looking for a while how to do this myself. It seems like something Google enforced to align the color shift from app to app. Which while is a neat take on style is not my preference. I would much rather have a consistent look and feel but to each there own.

Hello people, today I came with a question, I am looking for information on a navigation bar replacement, here is the short backstory.
I installed a rom for my moto, ( cant recall name, this is part of my problem but I think orion, cant recall the version, it was the one before substratum was added) every was perfect, but screen was giving me issues so I had the phone replaced, without even thinking about checking the rom name ( i delete files after dll)
such rom came with a feature I just love, it was a replacement for the nav bar, no buttons, nothing, it kinda look like always in fullscreen, and after setting it up, you could use the area of the screen where the nav bar goes, to for example swipe up for recents, d-tap for back, long swipe left to kill app...
also it leaves a trail while using it, just like the keyboard, and when you play music it shows in the same area a music visualizer, bars going up and down. ( I know some apps can do this too like muviz)
PLease if anyone know the name of the app/xposed/rom please reply or send me a message.
Thank you

The ROM is Dirty Unicorns and they are currently working on a Nougat update, the equalizer at the bottom of the home screen is called Pulse and the "swiping" navbar effects is called Fling (check the videos in the link).

Hi,
Does anyone know a way to increase the size of the icons and text in the status bar and possibly change the colour as well?
I know the size can be changed at Settings > Display > View mode, but I find the size quite small even at the largest setting.
The small text and icon size is just made worse by the adaptive colour behaviour, which always sets the hue of the colour the same as the background, (ie. light green for Google Play, light red for Gmail).
As if Huawei was trying to hide what the status bar shows, which kind of defeats the purpose.
Just for comparison, here are some screen-shots from my P10 Plus and from another phone running stock Android (both are on Oreo).
Note that while the stock droid's text and display size is set to Default/Defaullt respectively, the P10 is set to Default/Large (which is as large as it gets for the status bar, since on the P10 plus "text size" has no influence on it).
Any help is appreciated.
Thank You.
Is it really impossible?
Well, from the absolute lack of responses I must conclude, that what I would like is just impossible.
Or am I asking at the wrong place?
Anyone?

If You find any solution or a workaround, please let me know.
I was thinking, that perhaps an app with a widget that can replicate the function and behaviour of the status bar would do the trick, but I could not find one.
(Or perhaps, HUAWEI could just stop being stupid, and make a status/notification bar, that is NOT trying to hide its own content.
Anyone reading XDA from Huawei?)
I agree, it's really hard to see most of the time.

It"s a nice app, but unfortunately it does not solve the problem.
It only lets you select different icons for Wifi, Signal and Battery.
It does not modify the size or colour behaviour of status bar.
But, thanks for the tip, anyway!

Still not fixed with EMUI 10
I share the frustrations of people on this thread but was confident that the new release would sort it out. Sadly not
I just updated my P30 Pro to EMUI 10 and ... same. It's not just that it is not configurable but that the only size is so small. Am I really going to have to root this phone just so that I can read the status bar?

The only way to increase the font and icon size is install another Launcher instead of using EMUI. Huawei really lock down the screen option badly. Try Nova launcher or Microsoft launcher (it is free).

Unfortunately, You are wrong.
It's about the status/notification bar. Launchers can't change that.
Besides , EMUI is not the launcher on Huawei devices, it's much more than that.

There was me, hoping EMUI 10.1 would fix it.... Nope
I found a bare app for this issue on my vivo device but not perfect. The "Super status bar" app makes all text lager enough than they are. But this app doesn't work properly for all devices. It didnt work at 1st but i could get it work by trying repeatedly. The accessibility permission couldnt keep switch on and goes off itself. But when i switch on repeatedly many times later it didnt went off and app worked. But after the latest system update the app stopped for me. So if you could get work this app then don't do further update system as it may disable the app.
Also there're some limitations of this status bar app for ex. no data speed indicator. But for that i used another speed indicator app to show net speed on super status bar. Signal indicator shows bit of signal when there is no signal. The signal type G, E, 4G, LTE only shows only when data is switched on. Yet the time, battery and other common text are big enough on super status bar. Sometimes the paid version may better. There're some gestures also in the app for ex you can set call volume etc by sliding through the status bar and tapping status bar can show power manu etc. You can try it...
Unfortunately i cannot mention the link of Super status bar app as it not allowed here. You can search it by name in play store as "Super status bar". A green color app icon..
