transparent? not that i know. but you can use third party homescreen launchers to make it "invisible"
Transparant would be cooler though!

Not yet, but... I've pulled the framwork-res.apk and modified the backgroud to the task bar and have attached the results.
I haven't modified anything else in the bar, hence the icons for signal etc are still blue/black... but I will do.
The only problem with this is what colour do you have the text on the bar, as the background in apps also comes through
(I was thinking that instead of a fully see through bar, that I'd create an opaque one when I get home, as I only have paint on this PC)
EDIT: I was also looking to modify the lock screen to be slightly opaque, to match the bar at the top
Will post updates here once I've done them
Looking forward to the results!

I can remove the background to the icons, there is just a lot of them and I am at work, plus I have photoshop on my mac at home, and only MSpaint here.
I'll see what I can do for the glass effect, and was thinking of doing a few different see through colour variants (i.e. black, white, red etc)
As before, I think the main issue is going to be the text, but if there is a tint of colour, it should be easy enough to read (we'll see)
Hopefully I'll be able to put up a very beta version today or tomorrow, including the lock screen mods so you can see how it will look.
I'll put a new thread up when I have this beta bit done

I'm really looking forward to your transparent theme. I've been looking for one on my X10 for ages and I'm not skilled enough to do it myself.
Thanks in advance!

thnks a lot... looking forward for the release

To be honest, I'm not sure. I haven't used the Metamorph app, so will give it a go.
I've been using adb to test
Update Time!
Quick update, its a little trickier than I originally anticipated, but more or the status bar icons have been updated (I still have a lot to do yet)
So, I thought I'd show what I have done so far...
As you can see, some of the test is difficult to see in the bar, but this should be fixed once I've get a decent glass like effect on the bar. If you're using a dark background, this is fine, but lighter backgrounds are not so good.
Also, the text and debug mode icons are not done, and some of the battery and internet down/upload icons are also not done (100 and 80% for battery are complete, and the icons where 3g is enabled but not uploading or downloading are not done.)
Still, I think there is decent (ish) progress, and hope to get something you can use after the weekend (maybe before it's out, but I don't want to follow SE's example of giving crap release dates )
PS. Sorry for the quality of the attachment, I use screencast through my PC which doesn't scale down well but is quicker than using a screenshot app on Android

We could make it like this: one is working on the FULL transparent one and the other on the "win7 glass effect"

Right, almost there with the black transparent bar...
Take a look at the screenies
I'm in process of writing an installer, but its late, so I'm not finishing it now.
What I have now will be the first version, I will be changing the lock screen and other home screen bluenesses (like where I have Vodafone and ongoing, I will make them match the colour of the status bar)
I will also be adding a few more colours, preferably from the same installer, but we'll see how that goes.
Finally, I want to change the white background on the status dropdown to be the same as the status bar, eg, in this case, black and transparent.
looking good dude

Indeed, this is lookin great. I do really really like the looks of the status bar.
An idea, I know your still in very early stage atm but when you release it with your installer why not make it configurable? What I mean is so when your installing it asks you what bits you want in your choice of colours. So it would be customisable and everyone could have a version of some spec of colour that would suit any theme.
This would make a great paid app if you ask me...

Great work/concept so far!
I had thought about trying a translucent status bar background before. Can't wait to see it.
I'm trying to learn about theming a little too when I have time...
ccan u share the files... we could also work on it .. while u can compile the installer
Looks really sleek and sexy. Can't wait to see how this turns out.
BTW, very beautiful babe you have on your screen.
Hey there! I know It's not a really important thing but just wondering about it.. if you look at the Z5 pictures online and on the box (the white version) you'll see the navigation bar icons (home, back, recents) and the status bar icons are black when the white theme is applied. It's not like that when you actually use the phone. They're normally white. is there an actual way (without a serious modification) to make them like that?
Check the picture:

False advertising. Xperia Home doesn't have that option.
You can make it look like that by using Nova, but stock? No.
Oh wow lol @Syberyon thanks anyway

I've been using Nova forever and I've never seen it have this option. All I've ever seen is either making the status bar transparent or not on the home screen. Where would you find the option to customize it like that? Thanks in advance!

Oh, I see. I'll have to try it on my old phone though since this one doesn't actually have on-screen buttons (if it affects that as well). Seems a bit different and not as flexible as I imagined (I wasn't really going to use it anyway - was just curious). In any case, thanks!
Hello!
So, I have a hard time believing I'm the only one who hate the last update from for the S8, which basically removes the option for a black Navbar, and transparent navbar on the home screen when using 3rd party launchers like Nova.
I've seen many people not minding, but as for my self I am beyond hating it atm.. I can't be the only one?
How to you people get around this? For me personally hiding the navbar is so annoying.. So not an option?
And Navbar Apps doens't work all the time?
I'm not sure if there is something you can do with substratum?
Please?

Just one point,
I am using Nova Prime and my home screen
is transparent (not hidden) Everywhere
on phone dialer , settings etc. it's transparent not hidden.

"removes the option for a black Navbar, and transparent navbar on the home screen when using 3rd party launchers like Nova."
Yes, when I'm on Play store, XDA etc it's
white.
Look at my photos.

Hmm, I've just seen so many say that when using Nova their navbar is not transparent on the homescreen..
But that is great then.
As for the photos you attached, the navbar is black on both, how did you do that?

That is because Samsung is rolling the update to a certain amount of people at a time, you will get it eventually. And I can hide mine as well with Custom Navigation Bar, but I DON'T want it hidden.

I like it. Having the nav bar hidden while in apps is pretty cool. When my preceding phone had a pink tint I used the black nav bar for a while and it annoyed me because it visually chopped up the display. Different strokes I guess.

No,
navbar is not black, it's transparent.
The Samsung theme i use on device is
dark. Thus navbar looks black.
Look at my navbar configuration. (screenshots)
I choose an off white color. Then applied theme.
So on device (dialer, setting, homescreen etc)
it's transparent (when not hidden).
When i am on Play store, XDA etc it's the off white color.

Yes, it white, off white, pinkish , off pinkish etc.
Those colors you see is all you get.!
I'm sure Samsung had a good reason for this?
However on my device the off white is
only applied to other 3rd party apps. (off white)
Thus as stated before my device in general
is transparent. With dark Samsung theme it looks
black.
Plse note,
Just after O/S update, it showed originally all
over off white.
However after fiddling with
configuration and different color options,
Toggling navbar on off etc .
i found myself with transparent navbar.
Nb.
Your have to tap switch theme afterwards
If you don't then you navbar is off white in settings, etc

You either accept it and get use to it. Move on
or stay behind.? (O/s wise.)
I'm sure Samsung will change it later again.
For me, It does not worry me at all.
As long as my desktop navbar color
fits my wallpaper /theme.. I'm ok with it
Good luck

I agree with you. And I guess I will eventually have to take the update, atm I'm trying to get used to hiding the navbar..
But you said that on the homescreen (EVEN with nova launcher) it would be transparent right?

Yes, if you set it right in device /settings /display /navigation bar /.....
Choose/select ...color option and then tap the "apply current theme " switch .
You should have transparent navbar ( not hidden ) on homescreen /settings /dialer
Otherwise if you only select color and back out you will have white navbar etc on
device settings , dialer etc .
Note that on all 3rd party apps, its your selected white navbar .
According to me it's not such an big issues( navbar ) as some members make out to be .
good luck
Few gripes with the look and feel of Honor 7x.
1) I can't seem to change the notification panel background feom black to transparent without rooting. Is there a solution?
2) Spotify controls on lockscreen does not appear like the stock music control where there is a big album cover. Any fix?
3) Can the recents page be changed to a different look? Am alright with the arrangement, just would like to make the cards rounded or in the same effect?
4) Notifications would also look better if I can change them into Oreo-styled box-shaped notifications with color shading.
Sorry for the amateur questions but I am trying to tweak this phone to the smallest of detail if possible. Again, I reiterate that I am unrooted and would not like to root. On nova launcher. Don't know how to share images on xda otherwise I would send some screenshots. Again, sorry for being a noob, and thank you for all the suggestions.

Hi guys so I've searched for themes online which enable you to have round stock icons. I haven't found anything of good quality so I decided to give it a go and edit one of the built in themes on Honor Play. With luck not only was I able to change every icon to round (Photos Above, only on big Icons!) using only the stock icons but accidently managed to make a theme that adds another feature, which is to make any other icon which is not round into a round icon (almost) and makes your icons look so much better! I kept everything else stock I hope you like the theme! All the adaptive Icons for calendar and weather have also been changed while still fully fictional. The only icons I did not keep stock were the Music, Themes, and the Audio icon as I found better looking ones. The lock screen has no wallpaper set as I have left it on Magazine unlock to make it easy for those of you who like to use that feature. I do apologize if I have made any mistakes during this post this is quite literally my first ever post.
The link to the .hwt file is below. This theme will work on any Honor or Huawei phone but was initially created for Honor Play EMUI 9.
The instructions to install once downloaded are Copy File into Internal Storage > Huawei > Themes > and paste into this folder > Restart Phone > Open the themes app > Me > My Themes > You should see the theme for selection so like any other theme Apply and enjoy!
Big Icons> Set home layout to 5x6.

Yes I know! Read what I have said if you want adaptive round icons you need to use the big Icons. I showed you Microsoft app icons because they don't support round icons yet in my theme they are round. On small Icons theme only the main apps will be round! So download the big Icons you will see every single app in your drawer will be round including your apps mentioned above.
