Gray/White NavBar after Android Pie Update - Moto G6 Play Questions & Answers

Hello!
This is my first post here. I am just wondering how to use Black NavBar just like I did in Android 8. After I updated my Moto G6 Play to 9, NavBar is now white/gray, just few apps use the black one. I tried to use some apps in the store but had issues. I tried some Galaxy S8 commands using ADB, but not worked. Are there specific commands or something like root to roll back my black navbar and use it in all the system?
Thank you!

Did you find the solution? I have the same problem with ROMs from Motorola, I have not found anyone but you looking for the solution :crying:

It's just a stock thing. Sad, but it's how it is. I suggest using Fluid NG

[Q] Calling the Theming experts - Help us, SOS!

This is a cry for help, from me and the other NOOBs out here, new to the theming world with no idea where to begin.
I started out with a problem. I hate the UI on my Note Edge Lollipop, as compared to the stock Lollipop ASOP UI. I started about trying to change the entire UI (icons, menus, fonts, notification drawer, app drawer etc) to stock AOSP Lollipop UI. I am not rooted.
I AM LOST. No idea which guide to follow. Don't want to change my launcher. I would prefer not to root, would prefer not to void my warranty, would just prefer to screw around as less as possible while getting as close to stock Lollipop as possible.
And I know there are others around me. So here I am, on behalf of the noobs, requesting all experts to provide a starting point from where to begin changing the UI - completely, with as little messing around as possible. Not just to AOSP but to any other UI that someone else might prefer. Please explain this to us like we are 3 year olds.
1) Options for those who are Not Rooted.
2) Options for those who are Rooted.
Ps. This will not work if only the experts contribute. Everyone here who has something to contribute please do!
Ps. Mods I looked and searched for days. I know there are guides out there but I wanted something Note Edge and Lollipop specific.
As my contribution. I love the work that this Dev has done for the Note 4. But don't know if this will work on our devices. Also Im not rooted yet.

The new TouchWiz on the S6 has themes. Pray that they port it over to us and any other features it has like they used to do before with those Experience updates during the S3 and Note 2 periods...
Mate, there isn't actually a lot you can do for theming without rooting your device. Most themes replace icons in the system files which is impossible to access without root or without being officially supported by Samsung...
The only real way to theme your un-rooted Note Edge is to change the launcher and theme that...
My wishes seem to have been answered within a week. The new Samsung themes app is all we need. Let's hope we get it fast.

Lollipop Touchwiz Theme
Here is themes app for Lollipop touchwiz http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/themes-apps/touchwiz-theme-lollipop-note-4-t3037891. I tryed and it worked. Just don`t flash the zip (that makes your touchwiz home to FC). Just extract the zip and copy all content of zip`s system folder in your devices system folder as it is in zip, except Toucwiz home. Reboot and all done. Now you can change touchwiz themes as you like

I themed navbar on 7.1.1 DP with substratum 403 version, no bootloop or errors. If you face bootloop just flash the rescue zip in substratum folder. No harm in trying

That 1 theme did work. Another I tried failed in booting. The rescue zip didn't work either. Had to flash back to 7.0, factory reset, update back to 7.1.1 and now restoring

Try out Pixel ROM.It's really good and I didn't find any bug yet.
The Pixel ROM version 4.0 (the only one that's flashable using TWRP) is cool except the one MAJOR bug... Settings always force closes. I can't setup the Wi-Fi hotspot which my house depends on since it's my WiFi for the house.

How to apply Themes / Icon packs after Nougat update?

As the title says, does anybody know how to apply themes/Icons after upgrading to Nougat? I cant "find" or apply any of the themes/icons that I used before updating to 7.0...
A bit annoying if LG has done so that We have to use the Themes from LG`s own appstore !

No not all of them, but still how to add the themes in Nougat when all you can access is the ones that are standard and when you press the "add" button you get directed to LG app store?.... And also the same with icon packs you used to add them the same place/way as with regular themes... All of this has changed in the Nougat release, so thats why I wonder how do you guys do this now? ??

System UI Colors/Accent

Does anyone have any idea his to change the System UI color or accent because the Teal is very ugly. I hope there is a method without root because I'm not trying to lose OTA's.
I used Substratum X Andromeda via ADB enabled and now since it isn't allowed with Android Pie I can't edit anything without root.
Any ideas anyone? :crying: :highfive:

In Oreo it is possible by installing the apk of the color you want. When done that, it enables "Themes" in "Screen" in "Settings"
Google it, I found them in Mi A1 sub

This magisk module is working on A2 lite pie
Pix3lify from magisk also works like a charm, it even makes everything rounder just like it is on Pixel devices and roms.

Hey everyone! I have found something you will be interested in. If you have root you can buy and install "Swift Installer - Themes & Color Engine" you use magisk and root to apply overlays and you can choose your notification tool area transparency, your full device accent, and better yet it supports apps like Snapchat, GApps (Google Apps), Instagram, Spotify and more I will put the list of apps below!
List of apps your theme will get applied to: https://goo.gl/gS84kK
Google Play Store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brit.swiftinstaller
I have been using this ever since it released its like their own Substratum Engine but awesome and for Pie users

Question Oxygen OS 13 Custom Launchers

Hello everyone,
As you should already know Oneplus released the stable update of A13 for Oneplus 9/9 Pro, as some of you i installed on my 9 Pro and everything works ok.
But i wanted to install custom launcher so i can have more customizations, i was able to but all Google Apps including Play Store stoped working, does anyone have a clue why is that?
Also i would like a launcher with recents support, i also tried quickswitch but for now lawnchair is not compatible with a13.
Thank you for all your answers.
By the way i installed Systemless Pixel Launcher from Team Files, i will leave the link bellow if someone is interested:
Systemless Pixel Launcher Original - Modified
Systemless Pixel Launcher Original & Modified For Android 13.Original Features:• Well, It's original unmodified one for those roms that doesn't come with pixel launcher by defaultModified...

have you tried a normal non root based custom launcher ? like nova launcher ?

Yes that does work but i wanted something with recents support.
I'm looking for the same thing, it's agonizing not being able to choose the apps grid from the drawer, and I also don't understand why Lawnchair didn't add support even if it's experimental to android 13

You can install it but the recents are very glittery and no smooth as it should!

without quickswitch the launcher is poorly integrated into the system, it is preferable to use the stock launcher than a launcher that is blinking because it is conflicting

thanks! Just tried it out but seems like lawnchair crashes when tried to swipe up from nav bar (have an OP11) and opening app animation are really stuttery. I might have to wait till things are a bit more polished before hopping back on this.
