hi ppl.
i want to know how to remove a coloured bar that displays on the homescren by default. i am attaching a screenshot of my homescreen for your reference. the bar displays where 'Hutch' is written i.e. where teh operator name shows.
secondly, is there any way to make the top and bottom bars transparent so that any image covers the entire screen, but retains the icons n text (eg. edge icon, contacts field, start menu etc?)
anyone ?
You need to modify that theme. Upload it and I'll do it. It's located under ApplicationData\Home\xxx.scheme.xml
thanks pal. i am attaching the 'simple home' xml and a screenshot of same.
i would like the following things to be edited:
1. no top n bottom colour bars (should be transparent to take colour of any picture i put as wall paper)
2. no colour bar where it says 'Hutch' (operator) - same effect as point one.
3. Would it be possible to reduce the font sizes too ?
thank you for your precious time and patience.
Here you go.
Oh, it is not possible to remove the bottom.

yeehaw !!! thanks a ton pal. the home screen looks real cool.
don't want to overstay my welcome but is there anyway to keep changing the lower bar colour ?
theres a software called base hue express. that changes the bottom bar colour. but i dont think it can make it transparent.
In home screen settings you can choose Color schemes (only basic colors) otherwise you would have to modify the theme again!
Does anyone know if theres a way to take the wording below the icon off the screen so all you see is the icon??
try an app called more icons... they'll be smaller icons but you there won't be any text beneath
Hi. I searched but couldn't find anything. So, requesting that someone create a morph for the Nexus Notification Overlay icon ic_notification_overlay.9.png, in /system/framework/framework-res.apk.
This is the reddish orange overlay icon for notifications to tell you how many you have. I took the stock one which is 24x24 and reduced it to 20x20 so that we might actually see what icon is behind the big red blob notification with a number.
I am not a morph maker or I'd do it myself. However, I did edit the framework-res.apk from my phone with the new icon and push it. As you can see it looks a lot better.
New .png attached.
Thanks.
edited. Didnte realize the count is per-app.
I dont like this red dot either ..
Well, I'm either not doing a good job of explaining it or everyone's just not into it. In case I'm not doing a good job...it is the exact same red circle as stock, just made smaller.
When you get a notification in the status bar that shows a number of how many new you have, there are 3 layers. The icon for the app, Tweetcaster in this case, then on top of that the red circle, then on top of that is the written number of new messages/tweets/etc.
With the circle at stock size, it completely covers the icon of the app that has the new updates. So, you'd have to pull down the status bar to know what the red circle with number is for. See first upload, "+" and Tweetcaster are covered. All I've done is reduce the size of the red circle so that the app icon, the bottom layer, is partially visible, in order to be able to tell what the alerts are for at just a glance.
It might not even be worth it now because I had to change the size of the circle to 24x20 to make triple digit numbers of alerts look good.
....Or like I wrote, no one cares, which is cool. No biggy. Thought I'd share.
cool I got it.
Made a morph without the red dot myself
Thanks for clearing that up. Heres the morph.
Thanks, guys, for fulfilling the request and editing the posts about how ugly I made it. i get the confusion though. Looks much more orange on the computer than it does on the phone
Does anyone know a trick or cab to remove the text when sliding trough the manilla tabs. I tried to search but couldn't find anything.
Little bump
Same here. With the semi opaque transitions between tabs removed, the text blends in with the text in the background. It would be better to just have the text removed below the large slider icons in the middle of the screen.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yeah that is exactly what I mean there should be something for it
Does anyone know of a way to make the font and icons in the Status Bar whiter or brighter?
The font on the S7 looks gray and faded.
I know how to change the font and making it Gothic Bold helped a lot but the white font of AOSP is much easier to see outdoors or when your phone is in your hand.
I came from a Moto X Pure and all of the icons were bright white and easy to see. Definitely not a deal-breaker but it is one of my biggest complaints about the S7.
