Pretty much the title says it all: I'd like to have status bar and navigation bar always black, with white icons.
Does anyone know whether Nacho Notch or similar apps will work with upcoming One UI 3.0 / Android 11 release?
Might a black theme from Theme Store accomplish the job?
Thanks in advance!
Pick a theme that has the keyboard, phone texting colors etc you like, then set the wallpaper you want.
Add a custom icon pack from the Galaxy Store.
Load Galaxy Store Good Lock App and Quickstar to modify the pull down panel more if you want.
I use one of the preloaded high contrast theme then modify as above. Works well.

For everyone's knowledge, two reddit users tested Nacho Notch for me on both One UIs - stable and beta - and Nacho Notch works as expected.

Does anyone know of an icon set similar to the default white icons. I want to add custom apps to my nav bar and would prefer them to be all matching.

I use those, they are ICS blue not white though.
Yeah I saw those but I am wanting to add the phone app to my navbar and the default icon sticks out.
Hi there! Is there a way that I can make my Notification bar and Navigation bar Transparent in apps. I want to have them like on the homescreen with GEL where notification + navigation bar is trasparent. For example like the modded Instagram from Holofication Nation where everything is HOLO + transparent/ Thnx:fingers-crossed:
YES! I've been looking around for this too, thought maybe some xposed mod...
Not super familiar with the subject, but I think its up the the app Dev to implement?
Also, check out "[kk] translucent recents" xposed mod, makes your recent do just that!
I believe it is up to the developers to take the default page attributes and not specify color for those are or to become immersive. This is described on the Google development site and might be accessible via a search of this or the General areas of this forum.
How come HTC didn't make the status bar and navigation bar transparent like everyone else are doing after Kitkat? Am I missing something? Is there an option to turn it off?

It's transparent on the home screen and lock screen, and then changes color based on the app that you're in. It's just a design choice on HTC's part. Custom roms and/or sense 6 toolbox (when it comes out) will probably let you force transparency all the time. However, transparent status bar and white icons with no shadow or outline can make for a bad day if you pick the wrong wallpaper.

Yea when I had my nexus 5 I was basically the same way it varied between apps mainly for that reason that visibility of the of the icons would be horrible.

Oh I see, I am just asking because I am using the Google Launcher and it doesn't have transparent status/navigation like the Nexus 5 does.
Am I missing something here? I have various apps installed, such as Fenix, where I am using a darker theme yet the LG Nav bar is still showing as a light colour. I know that in the settings you can change the colour of the Nav Bar but there is no option there to have a dark nav bar to better fit with the apps. Looks silly.
Can't say i am that impressed with this phone as yet although it is early days, some very slow re-loading of apps sometimes, especially InBox email app even though I have asked that awful LG Smart Doctor app to not kill it...grrr...
Any tips/assistance gratefully received
Use nacho notch. It now has the option to keep the navbar dark.
Or get Navbar Apps, which allows you to set automatic or custom colours for any application

I found nacho notch to work more constantly vs navbar apps.
In the settings, by default, there are only light colors for the navbar, which don't fit quite well dark apps like Spotify and Reddit.
Is there a way to set it black?
I already tried:
- LG themes and high contrast mode: they work, but also change the whole UI look.
- Nacho Notch, Navbar Apps and other applications on PlayStore: they don't change only the default color, but the color used everywhere (e.g.: Nacho Notch sets the navbar to be always black, even when it should be transparent, like in the launcher).
- Alpha Substratum theme: it doesn't affect default navbar color (or, at least, I wasn't able to let it do it).
Does anyone know how to do it?
Thanks.
I don't see it either. Apart from another launcher, I think your only option is going to be a dark theme.

Use nacho notch or navbar apps.
Or double tap the left hand dot to hide the Nav Bar in those apps you don't like the look??
I just use System UI Tuner. A few ADB commands for permission for the app to run and all is good. Find it in the Play Store. Instructions are supper easy to follow and you can hide either the nav bar status bar or go full immersive and hide both even on the home screen like I do.

Alpha most certainly has this option. That was one of the first things I did when I added G7 support! You do have to go and manually select black but the option is definitely there
Thanks!

I finally found out how to do it! I needed to "force" the black navigation bar selection in the settings after having built "System UI".
I also quickly followed a fellow XDA members advice on how to enable High Contrast to phone in the settings and makes the phone dark as can be. It solved my Setting Theme to all black and Navigation bar to black as well. Just had to change the wallpaper back but works well.
