I like the customization that can be done in the MOAR ROM to the status bar icons but I like running the deodexed version of the stock ROM on my phone. Is there an easy method to gain access to change colors and maybe change the symbols in the icons on the status bar?

There are several Xposed modules that can modify the statusbar and some of the icons, but I'm not sure if any can actually use custom icons.
GravityBox, Wanam, and I think XBlast. Choose one, because they have a lot of overlap. My favorite is GravityBox because it allowed me to get my beloved left corner "menu" button back instead of the ridiculous "recents", which I kept activating because I've pressed that button for the menu thousands of times over the years.

For the current BOK3 root method, do I need to install the xposed framework first or is there an easy apk to install these?

You always need to install Xposed framework to run Xposed modules.
You need to use a deodexed ROM. It can be a stock-based ROM, but it must be deodexed.
Linked here is the version of xposed you need to flash: http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...od-og5-ok3-t3290370/post65280322#post65280322

So I installed xposed.zip (snapdragon) from the link via SS recovery but I see nothing in the apps drawer and I don't see Xposed in the app list on Ti BU. Did I miss something?
Oy! So I finally found the xposed installer in arter97's thread. I have the installer "installed". How do I install the snapdragon framework zip?
Oy! The learning curve! Ok so the installer automatically adds the framework. When I go to the gravitybox LP module, it says NOT for TW. Do I just ignore this?
NVMD. I loaded wanam instead.
I gave you a post with a direct link to the version of Xposed you needed to use....
Yes, I ignored the warning and GravityBox worked just fine for me (but I'm still using Android 4.4.4)

The link was just for the framework version. I needed the Installer part too.
GB probably would work, but the wanam already had lollipop users talking about it, so I went that way.

Ah.
Wanam and GravityBox are both good. I chose the latter because I really wanted my menu button back, and Wanam didn't do anything I needed that GravityBox didn't also do. It's a matter of personal preference. I am curious if GravityBox works well on Lollipop, though...

im willing to test it out ive been looking for something that changed the notification background and stuff for ages because moar wont change it and whenever i try to change it myself by just adding a new one and changing the name to what its supposed to be it doesnt work but which one should i use LP or KK? the LP one looks like its for 5.1 thats the only reason i ask and im on 5.0

It should be the LP one.
If that's somehow wrong, the worst case from an incompatible Xposed module is a bootloop, and you fix that by getting into Safestrap, choosing file explorer, and creating a file called "disabled" in /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/conf/
Alternately, there's a flashable zip file somewhere that puts the "disabled" file where it needs to be
Then you reboot, get into Xposed and turn off the offending module. Then use a file explorer to go delete that "disabled" file and reboot.
If you run Wanam and GravityBox simultaneously, you'll probably end up with two battery icons next to each other, but there shouldn't be any catastrophic effects.

i confirm the status bar color changer works but only for some of the icons like the wifi icon only the up and down arrows change colors but the alarm and the sound and the network speed monitor changed and the notification drawer works i changed the picture and expanded all notifications i have not however tried the set background color setting yet
edit: after restarting my phone only the netowork monitor is red now and my lockscreen is black other than the phone icon and camera icon and clock

I don't see anything in my KitKat version that seems to pertain to network or ad blocking.

Hi. As in topic subject. Can somebody tell me how to do it? I got rooted Note 3 got installed xposed tried few modules but none of them succesfully remove that damn icon out of the bar. I tried Wanam, GravityBox andSB Icon hider modules but no success. That damn stock icon is still there. I want to remove it and in it place use other one e.g. gravitybox's circle. All i achieved is to have two icons at a same time - stock and the other added by module by thats not what i want to achieve. HELP !

Is there any way to get rid of the red color in the top and bottom bar on the display? It's driving me passive-aggressive if I have to look at it all the time. If I leave YotaEnergy on (to get the 5 days of battery) the red bars are always on whether charge is full or empty.
Is rooted device required to change the colour?
Only if your rooted as far as I'm aware.
There's an Xposed module that gets rid of the Lollipop power saving orange bars. I was so damn happy when found it, those bars drive me mad as well.

Lovely, I'll root it like a rootaddict with all my ten if I can get rid of the bars. Never rooted a phone before so I am a bit worried. Dump question - what's the chance I could brick YP? Is the root safe to do for a newbie if I follow instructions?

About your screenshot, a zip must be flashed with a custom recovery (e.g. TWRP) to install the framework.
SDK21 is Android 5.0 (Lollipop), SDK22 is Android 5.1 (also Lollipop) and SDK23 is Android 6.0 (Marshmallow).
if you are like me on yotaphone 2 with the last update, take the zip named xposed-v82-sdk21-arm.zip .
but first unninstal the first install who doesn't work (sorry for my english, do you copy?)
I did it! I downloaded the latest version of Xposed (xposed-v82-sdk21-arm.zip) and now is working.

i installed it but many modules was not working, like gravitybox .-. and some others
Looked for this a few months back and didnt found nothing. Now just found your thread by pure luck. Gonna test it right now. Tks
Edit: although it didn't bootloop it got stuck for ages at first boot after installation. Forced reboot after 10m and second boot worked flawlessly. Already checked exposed app and it is active. Time to test some modules now. Any suggestions of working modules on our 4c?
Edit2 : is there anyway to re enable the ui themes via xposed? I was really liking the android N theme

Nope. You can't use EMUI Theme Engine and Xposed together. However if you want to, then disable Resource Hooks from Xposed Settings and enable Theme Engine. Do note that most of the modules that tend to change the system UI won't work if Resource Hooks are disabled.
Tks bud. Worked like a charm! Got my theme back and xgels module still works.

How to install Xposed on your Snapdragon S8+
I want to thank the man @elliwigy for making root happen!
I also want to thank @ErnyTech for making Xposed happen also!
Now it's time to share how to install this bad boy on Snapdragon S8+
First, you will need is flash fire and root to make this work!
Make sure you download these files to get Xposed to work people it's an easy way to work
1.https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=25965
2.https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0B8N7MRg8VIZRMVN5eFVEdGdoaFU
Make sure you get the updated version for link number 1
Installed apk first then in flash fire make you put Android Nougat SDK24 7.0 into the flash zip or ota section
MAKE SURE! you dont check auto-mount and mount/system read/then just hit the check on the top right corner
After let it do its magic and hit flash and ones it boots back up Xposed should be working

Well, I'm officially getting old I guess...
Was hoping to see if root cloak works and I see that hasn't been supported for a while. So, I went ahead and uninstalled using the uninstaller.zip arm64 for sdk 24, most recent version.
Anyone wondering;
Uninstalling, for me, went just as easy as installing.
Sounds like everything, for 7.0+ is still in beta/testing by rovo so do all this at your own risk.

I don't see the point in uninstalling because root clock doesn't work though, eitherway you can't use Knox or SafetyNet so might as well have Xposed.
Also there is another module called No Device Check which lets you use simpler apps like Snapchat, Mario Run, Pokemon GO etc... no Android Pay though.

Hi, I'm curious if I could get the following: the stock ROM on the xt1768 US unlocked version of the phone, but I only want basically the Google stuff that's included in the Pico or Nano opengapps packages. This would entail removing all the included Google stuff from the stock ROM, installing compatible versions of the plain ol' vanilla Android versions of the apps that Google replaces (Messaging, Calendar, Browser, Launcher, etc), and then flashing one of the minimal opengapps packages on top of that.
Anyone have any insights on this or where to start? Thanks!

You should be able to remove/replace all the google apps other than chrome, the chrome homepage provider, velvet and anything other than the ones like GoogleExtShared,GoogleExtServices. Play music and google calendar and all those can go with no issues. Chrome and the others I listed can be removed, but if you do a data wipe, you'll have force closes form what I've found. I'm not sure how flashing gapps will work out. That doesn't normally work so good on stock ROMs.

Yes, they are in oem/privapp, but you can only modify oem in twrp. You also have to change some xml files. You can't just delete them.
If you're trying to get rid of all that (Google and moto apps, which will strip functionality away) why not just use a custom rom and micro g?

Why bother responding with ridicule if you weren't at least going to fully answer the question? Some people like stock without google and moto crap. Especially when there are no custom ROMs fully suitable for a daily driver for everyone.

And Google I believe replaces the dialer and certain other things like that. Is there any way to revert those to plain Android versions?

I'm uploading flashable zips to enable the stock dialer and remove the google dialer. I'll post links shortly.
Edit: There's zips to restore everything back to normal just in case. https://mega.nz/#!48BUgaRY!zmPZnFxJmCABdVRrE-chFKObVsWiAhtnxfnonzz8AN0

Awesome. Thank you aj2333!
Just to clarify: the links you just added are to enable the stock dialer, or they're to restore the stock ROM to how it was before any modifications..?

Ah yes, good point - though see the other thread wherein you and I had at it regarding WiFi calling and the fact that it isn't working on any custom ROMs yet. I'd far prefer to use Lineage.

And then also is there a way to get long-press back to kill an app, get rid of the double circle and Google bounceys on the home button, and get rid of the text about split screen on the recent apps list?

Dude, that wasn't ridicule, it was a suggestion. I was looking at which xml file I changed to do it. I fell asleep before I got back.

I forgot that was you, lol. Hopefully you noticed I wasn't being rude here. I was just posing a query. And letting you know not to try to modify the oem partition unless you're in twrp, the phone will freeze if you do it while booted into Android.
P.S, you can change your nav bar buttons with a substratum theme called navigate. I have a bat symbol as my home key now. You can also use Xposed to change the location of the buttons (gravitybox). I use the systemless Xposed in magisk.

Just flashed first and third zips. Is there a way to verify that it worked? It looks exactly the same.
Also.. any way to get stock versions of keyboard, calendar, calculator, gallery, etc?

Google dialer and aosp dialer look very similar. Look in it's settings, or check the package name to confirm.

Look in oem/priv-app and see if you have a folder named GoogleDialerOEM, or something similar. It may be named different on your device, but it should be the same. If you don't see any GoogleDialer at all there, it was uninstalled. Do you see a green dialer icon in your app drawer? It's really not hard to figure out how to change those other apps you mentioned. You just need to delete the ones you don't want from /system/app or /system/priv-app and replace them with what you want. Some apps like some keyboards and galleries require additional files in /system/lib and sometimes symlinks to certain libraries to work properly. If you swap an app and get force closes that is probably why. A little tip, use this file manager: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1523691 You can just grant it root permissions and use it to copy the apps you want to system, and it will automatically set all permissions for the app, libs and all folders correctly without having to set the permissions manually. If I do much more for you, I might as well just make you a custom stock ROM.
Edit: make sure any updates for google dialer from the play store were removed. I thought I added lines to remove them no matter what they were named but I may have missed a possibility. I use a different google dialer and don't update it on the play store so I don't know exactly what it is named when it's installed to /data/app.
Edit-2: I just updated my google dialer from the play store, and the correct lines to remove it should be in the updater script of that zip. It should have removed it unless yours is named different in your oem partition.

Chill - it wasn't ridicule by any reasonable reading. And since when is "fully answer the question" a prerequisite to responding with relevant thoughts in a public thread? An opinion was volunteered; take it or leave it.

I'm pretty sure that's the same dude that's had his account disabled a bunch of times. Keeps coming back with a shiny new name.

I'm sorry I misenturpreted your post, but you do seem to like to get condescending and short with people an awful lot. I don't know who you think I am, but I have had another account here in the past and left (requested it be deleted) on my own free will. I'm regretting coming back now.

You sir seem awfully rude, condescending and not very helpful for being a recognized contributor.
