[Q] Android Lollipop Navbar? - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

It seems like this has likely been discussed in detail but my searching yielded no results for the OnePlus One.
My question is, how are you guys going about getting the Android Lollipop navbar on your OnePlus One?
I'm trying to avoid using the theme manager because every theme I've found a theme that changes the navbar to the Android Lollipop version, also changes other colors throughout the interface. My goal is to leave everything else as is and JUST change the navbar.
What's the best way you've found to do this?

[Q] Newb: ADW not updating icons with theme

<fluff>Hi, Newb here. Since I watched the video, I hate myself, and I now know that you all hate me too. Made a major leap from a Samsung A886 (an...ahem..."differently abled" phone) to the SGII about 10 days ago. Currently swapping back/forth between Go Launcher EX and ADW EX after trying every other launcher available. </fluff>
Every time I switch to a different theme in ADW only some of the icons are updated to reflect the new theme, most retain the style of the previous theme and it requires a manual changing of the icons. Any idea what's causing this? Common issue to be lived with?
I searched, but wasn't able to find a specific enough reference.
Are you sure the themes you are trying actually include new icons for all the apps you have?
The one i use has 900+ icons in the pack but i still have to make my own for 5 of the apps that i use.
In most cases there is an existing icon in the new theme; sometimes a couple of different options. Could it be related to what the application is referred to as in the phone, vs the theme?
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

transparent navbar/statusbar novalauncher

Hi Guys,
i loved the transparent status- and navbar in the new google-launcher.
But I wanted to stick to nova launcher and unfortunately i noticed, that both bars are not transparent anymore
So i stumbled upon this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2328346&page=6
There i read that with the latest beta of novalauncher its possible to set transperency for both bars. (even example screenshots of useres were posted)
Unfortunatetly with the latest beta and a rooted 4.4 N5 i do not have any of these options within novalauncher.
Does anyone knows about this or has this fixed yet?
Thanks in advance!

Pretty sure transparency only works with Nova on a few phones. It needs to be updated to allow it on the Nexus 5.
Here is their beta page on Google+. There isn't a current beta, but it's possible they will release a beta with these options to testers first, but I'm not entirely sure.

Maybe due to root not possible?
Hello,
as I bought a new Nexus 5 today as a Christmas present for my mother I noticed today, while preparing it, that her home buttons etc are transparent and my ones not, although stock Android 5.0 and Nova Launcher are installed on both devices equally but her's is unrooted and my one is rooted. My notification bar is transparent though... Only within a few apps I see my home button transparent.
Is it possible that this is the prohibiting factor?
Edit:
Sorry, I was so stupid to not notice, that my background caused this.... With another one I see them being transparent. Sry guys for the useless post ;o

[Q] A new question! Wondering if this is possible...

I was looking at my phone the other day and though I like the "Droid Blue" color scheme throughout the OS, I thought it might be fun to change it up. Is this possible? Easy, difficult, not at all? Does someone know where to find a procedure to do so? I was thinking of going with a red theme instead, just for something different...
Along the same lines, I read somewhere a while back that it may be possible to change the color scheme on Android 4.4 as an added option by Google within the software - can anyone verify this?
As always, thanks in advance!
4.4 is white and black, thank-goodness they got rid of the blue. Also, you should really take a look at the themes on the Play Store...
Thanks as always for your replies, it's to the point where I await your responses to my posts/questions in the RAZR HD forums
About the themes in the Play Store... Do they typically work with the stock OS / launcher, or do I have to install a different launcher for certain themes I find (as in the Red Light GO Launcher, for the GO Launcher EX app)?
I was also reading recently about the "Themer" (app?) in one of the threads here at XDA - any experience?
Most of the themes require a theme manager. However, you can use Xposed to install themes, if you're rooted. I haven't messed around with Themer or Go Launcher much. Most of the "themes" you can install on a launcher are only icons. The theme manager changes the entire look, just look at some of the themes for CM that are on the Play Store, you'll see what I mean. Xposed has a module that allows you to modify the themes and use them on most ROMs.

How to make Android kitkat recent apps thumbnails larger.

I recently downloaded a theme for the new CM11 theme engine and I noticed that the recent apps were larger than the stock. They resembled the new Android L recent apps where instead of application thumbnails they were the size of the new card style recent apps. The animation though was the stock kitkat meaning that the cards were not one behind the other but on top of the other. I really liked it and I was wondering if this is possible to reproduce outside the theme. I googled it but no luck. Any ideas?
By the way this is the theme for anyone interested. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lex.theme.lessugly.colorphobe
Already answered in the general topic. Can someone please remove this thread? Thanks.

Is there anyway to change icons on Android 5.0 yet?

I use to use the beautiful icon changer but they have not updated there app to work with lollipop.
I've been looking around and haven't found anything yet so I just wanted to see if any of you guys have found a working app.
