hey guys how sre you?
plz i need your help
always i get notification on whatsapp ,i have dot on the icon ,but the dot is green same color as the icon ,so i cant see it loll
any solution?

Other launcher, or try an icon pack with a different icon shape to make it easier to see.
Other launchers have the option to display the badge with a custom colour or even can display the number of notifications.
Alternatively, if you don't want to switch to a different launcher, you can go into the app drawer (where you see all your apps) long click on WhatsApp and select Edit. You can assign a different icon to it so it'll be easier to see the notification badge.

Notification bar color?

Not sure if this is what it's called but Im needing to change the color of the bar that comes up below the top task bar after you press the little call out icon for when you have a voice message and reminder, etc. Anyone know what that second bar is called? I'm trying to use UI Tweaker to change the color and can't find the name of it.
Anyone please?
it is called "notification multi icon highlight" dont know if ui tweaker uses the same name though

Ok, thanks. I'll try to work with this. My problem is that I installed a theme which is perfect but when I have voicemail, reminders, etc. and click the notification icon...the bar that comes up has a white background with white text. So all I see is a white bar. Going to try to change this to a black background of course so I can see the notifications.
If I don't find it in the utility, does anyone have a link to a reference that points out the registry values to change for this?

disabling email/sms/missed-calls notification on menu bar

hi,
does anybody know how to completely disable the notification for emails, sms and missed calls?
to be clearer: i do not mean the notification bubbles which can be disabled through settings. i mean the notification icons which appear on the menu bar.
any ideas? thanks

Do you mean the HTC Home icons?
i think what he means is the icons that shows up on the top bar along with the start icon, beside the connectivity icon..
here's a snap of it..

Ah yes, you are right!
I think that's the system feature and cannot be disabled.
if you have a look on some today screen replacements (e.g. todaylife) they can suppress the notification icon
mmh todaylife is a net application that sits over the todayscreen, so the notification are still there.
... but they are hidden, i guess? because the author has also rewritten/reskinned the complete top bar. so i can't imagine that the author would allow that notification-icons would popup as they wish.
ya I wish there was a way to get rid of those also
I would imagine (not knowing the particulars), that you would need to hook into the notification message loop and disable from there.
this might be a workaround:
replace those notification icons with pure black icons.
i am not skilled enough to do that, as i think it is the same hazzle like you have when replacing the start-icon on the top bar...

But what about theme usage? On for example blue theme this would be a black square there
sure. that's why it is a workaround and might not be applicable to all users
but at least for black theme users like myself
theres a way....programs like photocontactpro and smsfilter have the option to stop text messages from showing up. don task me how....but they do the magic some how

Change stock icons?

How do you change the stock icons? Can you get them from m the play store or do they have to be from the LG theme app?

Just use a launcher like Nova or Apex. Then apply whatever icons you want.
Actually came in here to answer my own question just in case someone was wondering. You can't change them unless you use the Home/app drawer option. Long press the icon will give you the little purple paint brush.
Well, after trying that, it seems no matter what I do, I can't rid of the black background the system places on the icons.
Also, try the themes in the smart world. A lot of themes have different icons

You can get rid of the black backgrounds. From a cnet article (​Four settings to change on the LG G6): To switch back to normal icons, head to Settings and open the Display tab. Then select Home Screen, followed by Icon Shape and then tap Original.

Oreo change Icon Shape

Hi guys,
Some of my icons (like all google apps) have an ugly white boarder around them. When I go into home screen settings I can change the shape of the icons to "original" or "rounded" etc. but that doesn't change the shape for some of the icons. It's apps like playstore, gmail, whatsapp. Things like that.
Is this the same for you guys?

Unfortunately it is also on mine.
Just found out that it's actually an Android Oreo feature called "adaptive icons". It's built in on a system level and apparently can't be disabled
So the only option is to use a custom launcher with icon packs.
cheers guys.

But you can apparently change the shape to circles or whatever, and I'm not sure where the menu to do this is. Anyone have any ideas?

In nova launcher settings just hold for few seconds volume down, that will activate labs, then go in to icon shape menu in nova and activate legacy icons.

Choosing icons from icon pack

Today I bought an icon pack, as I wanted to change the look of my home screen.
Installed it, applied it. It filled almost all my apps.
For the ones not included I have thousands of icons, theoretically, to choose from in the icon pack. I say theoretically because when I long press an app, go to Edit mode, choose the icon pack I've bought... I'm shown only a very small subset of what's available in the icon pack.
How can I solve this?
There should be an app icon in the drawer for the icon pack, try using that?

Yes, there's an app for the icon pack. It allows you to look at all the available icons (all 3,600 of them), to apply the icon pack for compatible launchers (OP is not there, but the icon pack applied with no problem through home screen settings).
The problem is that to modify single icons you go into Edit mode, as described above, but only a very small subset (144 icons out of 3,600) of the availabe icons is displayed. For instance, there are like nine different colors for music apps (with stylized headphones in different colors), but I have no way of accessing them.
If a solution exists I didn't find it. I ended up using my Nova launcher license and switched to it. All icons became instantly selectable for any single app.
