Transparent Nav Bar - Google Pixel 3 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods

Is there anyways that I make my navigation bar at the bottom almost transparent? An example of what I mean is how the nav bar appears when you open Snapchat, or when you swipe left to Google Now , The bar is transparent.I want it to be transparent in every app if possible.

I looked around for that too, but it doesn't seem to exist. If I understand that right, the nav-bar is already transparent in theory. Only that most apps don't make use of that. also the status bar and nav bar are inseperable.

I have managed to separate the two but I haven't been able to keep apps from coloring the transparent navbar. I can make it always translucent, or a color, but not transparent. At least as of yet. I keep trying when I get a chance

Here's what he wrote, when I asked him about that:

I understand but I don't know a way to make every app's background to also be transparent. The status bar and navbar are tied together. Both transparent. I've also tried to find a way to separate them but haven't been able to yet.

Hello,
Would it be possible to leave the translucent navbar in all the apps in a GSI rom? My device does not have many custom roms, so I use GSI.
Thank you.

Maybe. I'd have to get a copy of your framework-res.apk and systemui.apk and see. What phone do you have?

Upload the files I requested and I will see what I can do.
Framework-res.apk is in the system/framework folder
SystemUI.apk is in system/priv-app/SystemUI folder
Hopefully your SystemUI.apk. is deodexed because I need access to the smali files.

I don't have your phone so I don't know exactly how to get this on your phone for you to try.
Here are a couple of different things to try but have a backup. These should create a backup in a folder on your sdcard called ozop. Flash in TWRP.

[MOD] 31 Softkey sets for LiQUIDSMOOTH-v1.35

I created a bulk zip file containing all the sets as seen on this page. atticus182 I imagine, is the guy who made them. I followed his automatic method.
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/15078-softkeys-softkey-collection-cdmaupdate-22-01/
I included the default softkeys ( gn_softkey_original-liquid.zip ) so you can fall back to it you need/want too. I flashed about half of these so I know they work.
Simple to install, just extract the one you want from the .rar file, copy it to your phone, boot into Recovery, install the zip you uploaded to your phone. Reboot your phone. No wipe or anything needed. You can then go into LiquidControl and change their colors.
Here is the .rar file.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/sia212ae3vsu559/softkeys_all.rar
Enjoy

[Q] XPERIA-PLAY BOX IMAGE framework

Hi guys this is my first post here in xda!
I'm here to ask a thing:
When i unboxed my XPERIA PLAY I and turned it on i looked to the black status bar on the phone framework and looked to the box framework that was more beauty and was blue with white icons.
Can someone tell me if its possible to get the original blue framework like the image i have posted above, thanks in advanced, and sorry my English :S.
The photo of the box us edited with the computer. The statusbar looks on every xperia play that is on stock "ugly".
You must be rooted and edit the systemui.apk to get this

Which theme did u use?? I think its a theme effect. Try changing it to blue.

It's not a theme effect, it's actually older amdtroid version. I remembered my friend's X10 android 2.1 stock has this battery style.

You'll need to modify the battery icons inside framework-res.apk then push it back into system. Maybe you can ask someone to theme it for you

SystemUI Theme

Hey guys, I'm not sure if this is the right spot, but if not can a mod please move it.
Anyway I want to add a notification background to my systemUI, and/or change the statusbar color. I know what to change but I do not know how to compile APKs, so if there is anyone out there who would be willing to do it for me it would be great, I can send you all my files!
Thank you so much in advance!

It's possible, but you would need to flash a custom ROM that supports UI customization to do this.

Swapping out the PNG's only works on the computer I've tried on the phone but no dice. Again, make sure you do not extract the ROM, or changing the images will not work!
Correction: NinjaMorph in the Google Play store can alter images from the phone, though its a little bit harder to use in my opinion.

Okay, so I have downloaded Ninjamorph, and I somehow can not find the .png for the notification background for 4.1.1. I'm on the stock ROM, Do you happen to know what the file name is?

I believe that is a hex value in one of the xml files. you would need to decompile and edit the xml to allow custom png images as the background.

[Q] Where to find the status bar pattern in SystemUI.apk or framework-res.apk

Hi guys, I'm looking for the status bar pattern in the SystemUI.apk or framework-res.apk in order to change it into a full transparent white through ZipThemer (and finally have a transparent status bar in 4.2.2 stock :victory
But there's so many png in those files that I don't know which one I should use
Can you guys help me ?

With the new roms this is not an option as it is no longer a png file file a combo of color codes thoughout the systemui and framework res. It took me 3 months to find all the changes to redirect it to a png

I'm not sure I understand your post. You mean I have to change .xml files to apply a transparent status bar ? That is not a problem with ZipThemer, right ?

What I mean depending on your rom is that you will have to adjust the color codes. Your issues is that the main place one of these changes needs to be made are in a place tat cant be adjusted with zip themer.

You would have to decompile the both Framework-res apk and the systemui.apk and make about 15 xml edits to redirect it to an image and then remove a few places. Then recompile the apks and then flash them. This would have to be done for each rom you flash.
What are you trying to do over all?

4.2.2 stock with some mods (beats louder, a custom battery in status bar, a new locking...)
I agree that I have no idea why CM doesn't add this in their most recent ROM's, making the statusbar transparent is such an improvement to the UI immediately

[MOD][4.1.2][6.2.B.0.200][DEODEXED] Smaller On Screen Buttons

Today I will bring to you smaller on screen buttons to our Xperia S. As well as you know ,if you enable navigation bar by adding to build.prop the line "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" it will make you phone laggy. I modded some files and made the navigation bar much more smaller ,so it became more beautiful and the phone works very smooth ,without lags!
Note#1:
Tried only on 6.2.B.0.200 FW with niaboc79 "framework.jar" from his Honami's launcher port. So it's better to flash this port to get it work before using my mod. So that means that you must have a deodexed rom to apply my mod.
Note#2:
Before using this mod ,make a nandroid backup in CWM and also backup the files "SystemUI.apk" ,"framework-res.apk" & "framework.jar". I'm not responsible to any damage that will happen if you don't know how to use and install this mod.
Installation:
1. Download these 3 files:
framework-res.apk
framework.jar
SystemUI.apk
If you want transparent navigation bar & status bar download this zip
2. Copy them to your sdcard and with any file explorer move them manually to the folder "system".
3. Change the permissions to rw-r--r-- and move framework-res.apk + framework.jar to the folder system/framework. It will ask to overwrite these file ,click yes.
4. Change the permissions to rw-r--r-- and move SystemUI.apk to the folder system/app. It will ask to overwrite these file ,click yes.
5. Reboot you device into recovery and wipe cache partition + wipe dalvik cache.
6. If you want transparent UI ,move framework-res.apk + framework.jar to the folder system/framework ,reboot and flash the zip Transparent UI.
6. Done.
Known Bugs:
*Navigation bar overlap the camera buttons.
Status bar is transparent anywhere ,navigation bar only on home screen.
*Find and tell me

Enjoy and give your feedback! This is my first mod
:good: Glad to see you got it sorted, and made a good contribution to this section. Copying and changing permissions gets tiresome when you've got a few files to install so this POST might be of interest to you.

the transparency is not full...there is a part that is not transparent, I can see it also on your screen shot...BTW I manage to remove the overlaping of the camera button to the OSB, and I didn't use your systemUI apk file...I just disabled the capacitive hardware keys and there it goes,,the OSB button automatically hides and show. here is a screen shot..I do not want to upload so I just attached it..take a look please..
BTW can you make it full transparent??Thanks a lot =)
The problem I encountered is that when changing the resolution of the camera to a aspect ratio of 4:3 there is a big black portion on the screen
