Yes. You cant enable or disable it.
But the dot will be always there.
Sorry my english

The option to make the background of the nav bar, black has disappeared with the new update

Can you take pictures of the new options for nav bar.....
Do you know if it fixes the white navbar background when using a black theme in Gboard?

What theme you are using mate?

he uses klwp for theming. btw try navbar apps. it's a pretty decent app to "customize" the navbar

Try chroma keyboard instead

There's already a Firmware-thread were this was mentioned...!

I had to swap the button layout before the dot would appear, then put the button layout back as was.

Hello at all!
I know there is a thread like this in the Android Gerneral forum, but since we did not get any premade Skins (except Black Mod), i wanted to see what you have done to pimp your Homescreen.

Themes on S8 without root?

I want to install a "dark" theme for my S8 Snapdragon that's in the S7 forum. Can I do this on S8 without root (using Package Disabler method)?
If this is possible, will there be any glitches I should be aware of ahead of time? If I can do this, I may never root... well, probably will just to get rid of Samsung-ware.

Themes in the "Theme Store" can't change the Messaging app color / text box color, can it? I'm looking for something to give me as much white text on black background as possible in apps / System UI / dialer.
I don't mind paying for a theme in the Theme Store if this can be accomplished.

The "High Contrast Theme" from Samsung has a pure black background with white text in the stock messaging app (for free).

I won't have my S8 until tomorrow - any chance you could point me to screenshots of the Messaging and Settings apps? Or perhaps post them for me if it's not too much trouble
Really appreciate it.

Thanks for that. The white text input box at the bottom is what I was hoping I could make white on black. I've used a few themes around XDA that could do this - like this one I'm currently using on my S6:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/themes/theme-samsung-galaxy-s8-t3582967
I bet there is a user made theme that blacks that out as well but I've only tried a few. I'll let you know if I come across one.
EDIT - Hmm it seems like all of the black themes on the Samsung app have the white text box, maybe they don't allow that to be changed on the stock app?
I have been playing around with Textra for messaging and it allows you to customize the look, see attached image. I think you could make those blue accents black as well.

I like that - I think I'll give that a try.
Yeah there are some elements the Samsung Theme Engine won't allow user created themes to change, at least from my understanding. The High Contrast theme and the use of Textra look like good options until we have root.
Thanks again!
Speaking of themes...Does anyone know if it is possible to get a plain black status bar (not transparent) with white text at the top of the screen all the time (without root)?

Lockscreen icons

Is there any chance to change lockscreen icons look?
As I see icons are always default one from theme which is used. If I change app icon in drawer or on home screen, icon for that(same) app is still default on lockscreen.
Is it somehow possible to set your own icons? Maybe with root? But still don't know how ...
Root, Xposed (not sure about lg compatibility though?) or maybe via Substratum.
There are a few options available I guess
Thanks for advice. Xposed, good option.
But, yeah, I'm guessing too, because there's not much about that (connected with G6) on google.

If the icons were themed then they should stay themed on the lock screen? If you dont mind, which theme are you using? maybe there is another resolution of icon that needs to be added for this to be shown.
And which icons are they??
What launcher are you using??
I can say that i have found on my themes that even though i themed my icons, that when i press the home screen to change wallpapers that the original gallery icon shows up. So i may need to add different sizes and get those the right size.

Yup, I saw that theme also changes icons. I know that. You can also DL icon packages (MIUI) which also change icons, but they're not quit the same as original icon form package ...
The only problem is, that there's hard to found theme with all the icons. For example, non of original LG theme don't have exDialer icon.
So, a little playing with themes help somehow.

No sadly we cant theme non system applications with this theme engine. And what can do is still limited. We cant touch everything.
So yea you will need to find an icon pack that works. Sorry

Dark theme
Hi guys, just updated my ze552kl to Android O, get rid of annoying dots and background apps notification, so far so good. Anyone has any idea to get dark themes especially on quick tiles section? I don't mind spend some bucks for dark theme as long as it gets things done consistently, not just main setting page. Alternatively, I'd like to try Andromeda addon but most of the themes do not recommend quick tiles theme adjustment (just color, not icons) which is kind of pointless. So, it would be appreciated if someone could recommend a spesific dark zenui theme or share any thoughts and experience with Andromeda on ze552kl. Thanks in advance

Well I don't what's wrong but the suggested theme partially change phone, contacts, wallpapers, icons, main setting page only. The quick tiles remain white. I guess I'm out of luck, but there is a wayout please be kind enough to inform.

If you want to change icons only from other theme, it can be achieved via zenui theme and select customize from within the theme you want the icons to be applied (check icons only). Or from installed iconpack from Preference --> Icons/folder. It works fine for me.

Yeah, I wonder why is it so hard to have simple thing. It's only partially applied with quick tiles / notification remain stock (white background /blue icons). I didn't do factory reset after Oreo update. Backup /restore process is so tiring.
