android transparent status bar - OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers

Do you know how to make the status bar transparent fully? Its very annoying..

For the home screen just go in settings and hide all the icons. I would like to know how to hide it in chrome without root. Samsung has full screen mode.

I won't make the icon transparent. I would make the black bar transparent, so that the color is the same like the app

That depends on the app usually, apps can theme the status bar when they launch, you do get very nice transparent substratum themes but they probably wouldn't change the status bar unless they theme that app too.

This is exactly correct. Your at the mercy of the app. Unless the app can be themed, it's what it is.

Samsung has a full screen mode for all apps. I'm surprised oneplus doesn't offer this. I sent in a request on their website.

I use Nova launcher and it has gestures that you can asign actions to so I have a swipe up to hide status bar and swipe up to show again.

Okay, nice to know. Thank you guys. So ot is how it is

Transparent notification bar on MIUI

Everyone will be knowing that MIUI supports transparent notification - (http://img.tapatalk.com/62cede0e-f9b4-58c5.jpg)
I prefer using the TW launcher rather than the MIUI launcher - of course, I know that I can still use MIUI notification drawer on the TW launcher, but the problem is that you lose the transparency on the home screen ... with most drawer themes.
I noticed that the notification drawer theme "Galaxy S" - is actually transparent, even on TW home screen.... my question is, does any one know how to make ANY notification bar transparent, or know of any other themes that have this transparency effect on TW?
+1 would love transparent bar on apex with miui!

I am not an expert at these things but i am pretty sure they cant be seperated. Its true, the drawer is quite bad... Too dark for the font used. Have tried a few other themes with no success

Ok... I have just made a discovery!!
You cant change the background to the drawer.. But you can combine texts and icons from another theme.
1. Go to theme then set the theme you like the text, colour and icons of. i like the 'gentleman' theme
2. Then go back to theme and then go to 'mix' and change only the 'status bar, to ' galaxy S'
Of course, mix and match everything else. Looks perfect now.
Just spent hours trying to modify themes using theme editor, and also modifying systemui.apk... Failed sigh.
Any theming wizards able to make the status bar background Grey or clear with apex launcher?? Basically I figured out that there is no file for status bar background, and the miui launcher defaults to clear, while apex defaults to black. I tried adding a Grey background, but failed..

(Q)number of Notification Icons in statusbar jb 4.1

ive been searching for some time now and i really cant quite find what im looking for, i have rearranged my statusbar icons layout to match the ios statusbar layout of icons, now my only problem is the notification icons the overlap with the clock, what i want to do is to stop dislplaying the icon of the notification and just show the stat_notify_more icon instead regardless if there is only just one or more notifications, does anyone have an idea how to do this?

[Collection] OOS Statusbar Substratum themes

Hey guys, i thought it would be nice to have a little overview of which substratum modules there are to change the icons in our statusbar on oxygenOS.
I found a few ones. If you know some more that work, please write them in the thread and i will add them in this post.
I wont add screenshots since you can see the icons most likely in playstore pictures.
Note: I only tested and can confirm to be working the statusbar options in the themes. Other theming options in the themes like framework might end in bootloop.
So lets start:
ModernUI Theme free
Outline Theme paid
Compound paid
StatusBars Beta free
Battery Icon Mod paid (thx @Xceeder)
Status paid - only mobile signal icon and silent mode icon seem to work
Belo paid (thx @L0cke)
Signal & WiFi icons paid (thx @svandasek)
Substratum Theme Vector paid (thx @Nishidh)
S.i.X Theme free (thx @KpChuck)
Now its your turn guys, let the list grow.:good:

Go to the playstore type substratum and install , easy really then all you have to do is select the items you want to theme for example systemUI , settings , qs tiles , battery etc and install the layers , if you want a full guide then check on YouTube on how to use as always though when messing with system files please make a nandroid backup ...

# Status theme added.
Only 2 icons get changed. So not really worth it i guess, but ill add it to list.
I tried Belo (paid), which is really nice, but doesn't theme the WiFi icon. Will keep searching for more...

Yea, wifi icon is a problem in a lot of themes. It workes though in ModernUI, Compound and Outline.
All other icons work in Belo? Then i will add it.

No specific status bar options in these, but they're the only (I think) themes that are actually fully compatible with OOS

Oh shoot, my bad. There are indeed no status bar options in this mod. I thought this thread was for substratum themes in general. Still a great addition imo, the black theme is dope!

Hello guys,
I am learning to make substratum themes, am pretty successful and I want to make one specially for the statusbar. It would be 100% compatible with non one ROMs like oos.
I have some pretty cool icons already, but I don't have that much ideas anymore
So, if you want, you can post or describe an icon u want to have themed.
I will do it, and publish on play store.
All ideas are appreciated

How do people deal with the latest update for the S8(+)???

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?

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.

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

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
