Changing background colour and removing top status bar - Android General

I have a rooted Nexus 7 2013. Is there a way I can permanently remove the top status bar? Also, when the device starts up, I launch an application but for a split second I get a full white screen before application loads. At first I thought it was my wallpaper but I've set a full black background wallpaper. So I am thinking is there a way to set background colour to black too? I want to prevent that bright white background that displays for a split second while an application is starting.

[Completed] Gray Bar shows on top of Galaxy S7 screen when black wallpaper is applied

I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 and whenever I have a black wallpaper applied I get a gray bar on the top of my screen that only shows on the home screen, lock screen, and recent apps page. It is highly visible when the brightness is set to anything below 30-40% but fades away as brightness increases. It does not show up when I use a wallpaper of any other color, it does not show up in apps that have black wallpapers or games that have black backgrounds, and a factory reset has not resolved the issue. I am hoping someone could just tell me what is happening. Thank you for your time.

Status Bar Icon Color

Is there a way to change the color of the status bar icons yet?
The stock white is killing me, My eyes are not what they use to be. In past phones I had changed them to a bright green which was easy to read.
I would also be happy If I could make those icons larger somehow.
I also have a hard time seeing the notifications on my lock screen, Larger text would be great.
One would think Android would give us an option for visually impaired just like they did for the hearing impaired
Thanks
You could go to settings -> display -> zoom screen and font
There you can change the size of things on your screen, and make fonts bigger.
Thanks, I just tried that, it doesnt change the size of the status bar nor the lock screen notifications

Statusbar black font / gesture indicator white background

I actually love the 12.2.4 update (I knew what I was getting into and was fine using the poco launcher). But I have this issue where the status bar is black sometimes and the gesture indicator has this annoying white bar behind it that really looks ugly... (see screenshot) Do I have to uninstall other launchers? Or should I reset poco launcher?
[E] After uninstalling nova launcher it was gone, but now it's back
The status bar is black since miui 12, if you have a bright background. I don't know who is the brilliant developer, that thought this is a good idea.
Try changing the background, or try the settings under "more dark mode options" - "adjust wallpaper to dark mode" with ON and OFF.
I have a blue background, which also turns the status bar black, if I turn the mentioned setting off.

Thx for the suggestion! But I don't use dark mode at all. It also turns dark when I'm on light mode and I get that ugly bar behind the gesture indicator at the bottom.
I think it has something to do with display size setting in accessibility (or DPI). When I use display size S or XS, I don't have the issue only with L or when I set DPI lower than 392 (which is stock).. But why!?
[e] upon further testing I found out that it's a combination of setting DPI below 392 and the wallpaper... Maybe it's because of the colors in the wallpaper or the size or I don't know but certain (scrolling) wallpapers in combination with low DPI produce this bug with gesture indicator and status bar color pretty sure it has to do with bright/dark color but not sure. Weird stuff, but it seems like I fixed it.
