Probably the easiest way would be to use a custom launcher, something like Ruthless or Nova can be configured to look like a Pixel. You can use custom icon packs and widgets to complete the look.
If you want to go deeper then something like Hex Installer would work as well. I prefer the AOSP status icons over the Samsung ones personally.

Hi! I am new to the DInc but am loving it rooted. (Huge step up from the Eris...LOL) I am loving the MIUI ROM so far but there are some aspects of a 100% Vanilla ROM that I'd really like. I have downloaded/installed CM6 (which I understand is the only true Vanilla ROM available - dialer specifically) but I'm wondering if there is a theme available that looks like the MUIU ROM - you know, the rounded iPhone type icons.
If no themes are available is there a way to change my current icons to the MIUI-type icons?
Thanks in advance.

You could always use LauncherPro. It allows for replacing the icons on your screens with a custom icon.

Good idea. Any suggestions on where to find custom icons?
I know if no other way... you cannot make a theme to automatically change different icons... it is all done in the framework... I am actually trying to develop a cross breed of miui and skyraider.. it is not working out so well.. anybody else on this?

The market is a great place to start If I'm not mistaken, adw.launcher has a variety of ipod/ipad-espue icons, which is what MIUI is based off of hope this info helps!
EDIT*
Whoops left out the fact that the icons for adw.launcher are classified as themes in the market

I've been looking for a black theme, all these white menus hurt my eyes
There used to be a switch in settings to make everything including menus etc black but it seems to have been switched to the theme manager. Can't seem to find a theme with dark background and white text in menus, they mostly just change wallpaper.
Any advice?

Learn how to theme.
Unfortunately, it can't be done. When you create a theme for an Xperia phone, you create a dark theme and a light theme, but it is not up to the theme developer or the user which of those themes to use. Sony has explicitly decided which of their apps will use each theme, and there does not seem to be a user-facing option to change it.

Yeah I'm using nova, still a lot of white going on everywhere
IICR if you put it to the stock launcher then go to themes when long pressing the screen those themes should change the whole phones theme.

Upgrade your phone to Android Oreo 8.0
and use substraum themes, then apply black theme
Do you think we can get the android 7 nav keys? cause I am not a fan of oreo nav keys.

Is there a substratum theme that doesnt break my apps? I was using the mono/art theme for substratum but everytime an app like WhatsApp or messages got an update it would force close the app when I would try to launch it until I remove the theme or it gets an update. Is there a theme where this wont happen? I was also getting force closes with WiFi toggled on and off.
substraum very buggy on oreo
is there a way to get custom icons without having to get rid of the pixel launcher as i actually like its ui setup over some of the custom ones like nova. my only pull to nova is that it is more theme-able then pixel launcher. would it take a modified apk of pixel launcher to get this to work?

Substratum might work, but I'm just getting into it myself so I'm not entirely sure about that.

Based on my limited time with it, it seems like the best way to get custom icons would be to find a theme that overlays the pixel launcher app and allows you to specify which icon set you want for that overlay, but I'm not sure if something like that exists. Definitely make sure you have TWRP working on your device before you start playing with it though. Most of the supposedly oreo-compatible themes I've used have resulted in an unbootable phone, so I've used the substratum recovery zip that it automatically makes pretty regularly.
Have not tried it yet but this looks promising.

This is exactly what I was looking for and it works just tried it!!!!! Thanks for this I'd heard of this app but I didn't realize this is what it was for
If you have magisk you can find some iconpacks also.
so i just updated to pie and the navbar icons are almost as ugly as the previous samsung icons. how do I replace them? I just want to have the regular android icons, how can this be so hard?
so i guess that's a no
Give a theme from Galaxy Themes a try, some of them have AOSP navbar icons. They do change your app icons and other stuff though.
But then there's always the option to enable gestures in Settings.
I'd go for the latter if I were you.
Back on Oreo I used Swift Installer to apply an AOSP-like look to my phone which was good.
Swift Installer now works with One UI, the AOSP look isn't available though, but who knows, maybe it will be in the near future.
Doesnt Substratum still work on S9 with the Pie update? If so there are Navbar icon apps for Substratum?

There is literally an entire theme store built into your phone to do just this..

no themes in the theme store show the navbar on their preview images.
already downloaded many themes, none of them changed the navbar icons.
and again, I don't wanna change anything, samsung's default ui is already ugly as it is, don't wanna make it even uglier with user made themes, only wanna change the navbar icons to look like what google makes.
if you know of one single theme that changes nothing but the navbar icons, go ahead and tell everyone

If you ONLY want to theme the navbar that is what substratum is for .

My favourite at the moment is https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sikebo.immaterialis.icons
Thanks all

There is for the 4xl and I think for the other pissel from now or soon
I have been using stealth icon pack since forever, and after trying out different packs always come back to this one. Perfect for dark backgrounds and oled displays.

Ooh nice. I had forgotten all about that one. Thank you
Currently running Pixel Pie Icon Pack with over 11000 icons.
Guys, try Minimo. Great icon pack, works with most wallpapers.
I like Borleas.
Appstract icons are an absolute go for the Doodle live wallpaper.
Circo
Really nice colorful icons that work with the Pixel mods for stock launcher. Use it with the Pokemon background or something similar.
I've been using 2 different packs switching back and forth between ruggon and drawon they're pretty cool especially with pitch black wallpaper the colors are great
