Navigation bar customization - Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know how to customize the navbar in emui 3.1 on the honor 6. My navbar changed somehow while I was trying to flash a custom status bar zip. I've tried changing it with different apps like softkeyz but it doesn't change. I also installed busybox . I'm new to this stuff so please excuse me if I did or said something wrong

Maybe this app could not work on EMUI.
You can try to change the themes. Themes can have their own coustomizing navbar.
(And I just know that you can do it but I do not how to do)

If you mean themes from the huawei theme maker app, I can't even get the app to run on the latest version. The version before that does not affect the navbar no matter what the theme is

My mind is that you can try to apply some Themes from Huawei Themes App.
Or your mind is that any themes could not affect navbar?(No all themes can affect navbar...)

I am using CM11 for ROM and I wanted to keep my theme but change the icons on the Notification Bar.

There was an Xposed module for it I think. The theme I'm using does it for me already.

You'll have to decompile the theme and remove the resources for the nav bar from it.

I'm not sure if Xposed or Theme Manager gets priority. You can try it.

[Q] theme chooser custom rom

Hi ,
I'm trying to build a custom rom for the jiayu g4 with as base stock kitkat rom.
Now, I would like to add theme ability to the rom. Not with xposed framework or such, just a theme chooser like in the xperia and cm settings.
Can anyone help me with this? The intension is to have such setting (or app that I can link to settings) to easely change the theme.
If there's an option to do this, but specific for my kind of phone (so no theme's exist yet), I wouldn't mind theming a bit. In that case I could provide the users with 3 or 4 different UI collours and different icons or such to choose from.
Thanks,
Louis

You could try adding the Cyanogenmod theme chooser into the ROM and offer some themes for it but that isn't device specific as such. That would most likely be the easy option where something else could take a lot of time though.

How can i add the Cyanogenmod theme chooser into the ROM? Isn't the cyanogenmod theme engine built in in the framework and very difficult to add to a ROM?

It is built into the framework and requires an AOSP based rom. Also the version for that OS had a ton of issues that were never fixed as it abandoned for the newer setup

So you're telling me I must not try to add the cyanogenmod theme engine? What would be the easiest way to add some theme's then? It doesn't have to be theming like in cyanogenmod or such. Just changing the theme collour from as example black to blue would be enough for me. Then I can provide them with the themes black, blue, red, green or such.
Thanks for taking the time to answer

To do what you want you would have to rewrite all the base framework files and add everything in by hand. To be honest it will be far more work then it is worth. Your best option would be to make flashable theme zips, where you change all the color options to each and every single apk in the rom.

wouldn't it work to just change the systemui or such so the status bar, volume pannel, settings etc change collour and maybe some icons (like wifi, bt,..)? And then I could search for an app that automaticaly flashes zip's, that way the users just need to choose the theme they want and the phone does the rest himself?
Or is there a way to implend xposed modules into the system so I can use XthemeEngine without having to install xposed module? Or implend xposed framework and XthemeEngine in the ROM so you just flash it with the rest of the ROM? But in that last case, it maybe would be stupid to do the work for it as everyone can easily find out about XthemeEngine if they realy want to apply some themes. Plus xposed and XthemeEngine would be 2 apps taking space in the drawer and memory wasting for the users who don't want to theme..

Well thats the thing. The volume panel color shares its color with the rest of the menus in the rom, The settings is set by the settings apk and the icons are scattered across a ton of different apks. Some in the framework and some in the system ui.
The xposed route is up to you. I find no use for xposed myself.
Ill be honest there is no easy way to do this. What you want to do takes weeks worth of work even for a single color theme. This is due to everything being cross linked to everything else. You change the color for say the clock then the color changes in 50 other places as well.

[Q] theme

Does anyone know of a way to modify the app drawer icon and soft keys to use custom icons i dont want to install another app to do it i tried to extract and replace the images from the lghome.apk with ninja morph but i had no luck it some how reverted back to stock

the app drawer icon is easy if you're using a launcher like apex. just download an icon pack that you like, long press on the app drawer icon, press edit on the menu that appears and you can pick an icon from whatever icon packs you have.
the soft keys though, the only way i know how to change them is with the xposed mod xstana, but that only lets you choose from the themes that come with the module (some of which are free and some that require a payment)
those are the only ways i know, but hopefully someone with more knowledge will chime in with other solutions
I tried xstana it doesnt work either but i really dont want to install any other launchers id like to find a way to modify the lg home and theme apks to produce the results im looking for maybe someone could point me in the right direction or maybe a tut on creating a module of my own
hmm thats strange...xstana works great on my stylo. hopefully another option presents itself...

Status bar mod?

hello,
I really do not like stock status bar icons.
I use the touchwiz and I'm fine, I do not want to change it, but just change the status bar.
I prefer ios or huawei style icons.
is there any working method (with nougat)?
Yes. Install Xposed and install "Flat Style Bar Indicators" module. Its amazing.

I don't have magisk. I just needed a custom recovery (TWRP) and root to install Xposed.
thank you !!!!
with root the fingerprints can be used normally for unlocking the phone or for passwords with the samsung browser or with the paypal app?

you can change status bar icons, and clock location(to center, like iOS) using substratum Theme engine.

Open Themes and search for them, it's easy.
The Nav Bar that I use is the one from "SUI10 v10" theme, and it's great also.
