Okay I tested it for several hours it seems to stick with what I've done. I'll start by saying this is NOT a permanent fix someone smarter than me will have to figure out a way to modify SystemUI to keep it happy. There is a random app here and there that wants to revert the bar to white but instead of it being every non-OOS app it's maybe 5 of my 100 or so apps I have installed.
Common culprits that are controlled for me...
Accuweather
Titanium Backup
Google's Apps
Facebook and it's Messenger app
Test it and let me know. Here's how I have it set up.
1.) Install Nav Bars. You can get it Here
2.) Top right "Static Color" set it to black under the setting/gear icon. That would be sliding the bottom slider all the way to the right
3.) Go into General Settings (3 dot on top right).
4.) Under "Disable apps from detecting" click add, include system apps, and select SystemUI
5.) General Settings turn on accessibility services
6.) Color of Navigation Bar when keyboard open under general setttings. I made this black and kept the box unchecked for coloring of the keyboard. Change this at your own risk I use a black keyboard and keep it black.
7.) Enjoy! Like I said above, where before every non-OOS app turned the bar white I now have about 95% of the apps controlled with this setting. It's more than usable until someone who's developer-savvy can modify the SystemUI file.
IMPORTANT NOTE: I do have this running with Substratum Theme Engine using the Swift Black Theme on SystemUI. I do not know if that is required or not so something else to throw out there. Lastly, the only thing you'll see on the apps it liked to "misbehave" on the nav bar's 3 buttons change a real fast shade of different white. It otherwise keeps the status bar BLACK. Here's screen shots of the trouble apps I had before. I set this all last night and woke up this morning it all still is sticking.

thanks! I tried it and it works! the only issue I have at the moment is Nova Launcher... I included nova launcher in the "disable apps from detecting" but I still get the white ugly navbar in my home screen.... on all other apps, at the moment I get the black navbar....
Any ideas on why it doesn't work on Nova?

I have no problems with nova. I have selected active color in nav bar apps excep for:
OPAod
So when i face unlock the phone i don't see the ugly green nav bar. Nova is transparent still
Thanks.. I got it now black in Nova. It's a bit misleading because in Nova settings it says "transparent notification bar", not navigation. Although this setting turns the navigation bar transparent too.
Best regards

Looks like a good work, thanks! I just didn't get the BG images, seems more almost everywhere is transparent? Phone widget too? In that case there would be a way to go back without this transparency?
Besides that I think it's very nice, going to try it tomorrow (right now going to bed), and I come back with my thoughts =)
FYI.
I posted your theme over at DF cause it's slick and I'm sure they will love it over there. Thanks for this.
Nice theme, thanks a lot!
I only have one issue:
- The menubar + notification area is still the one from CM 6.1 (0.05-10.12.27)
Can you please help me out with that? Thanks a lot in advance!
Edit: After resetting all tweks in the CM settings and restarting my Milestone, the menu bar is black, but without transparency and the text on the menu bar is also black. I have selected the "Ginger" theme in the settings.
Weird. Transparency is only enabled if you Disable wallpaper hack or set a LiveWallpaper. For the colors, set them manually if the xml doesnt work.
I'm using LauncherPro as my default launcher, if that helps. Where can I enable/disable the wallpaper hack? I guess it's a ADW setting, right?
Thank you for your answer!
Edit:
When I pull down the notification area, the right side of the menu bar gets gray, but the left side stays partly black (it's where the date should be, but I haven't modified the text color yet):

Is that a bug?
Nope. If i put transparent background to date its unreadable because the bg content
I see, thanks!
So the wallpaper hack is an ADW feature, right? But I can live withouth the transparent BG, so no big deal here.
Yup, performance enhancement, that's all
Update available!
Thanks a lot! Will try it out as soon as I'm at home this evening!
Edit: I just installed it and everything works fine. I only deleted the boot sound because I find it rather annoying .
Caused a boot loop? Did i do something wrong? using latest clockwork recovery with CM 6.1.2. Just labeled it as update applied zip and it caused that. Should i try it again?
Downloading...
thnx

Hi all,
Modded the Go Locker Four Key a bit... First time I do this so hopefully you like it and I didn't mess anything up
Background is like the background of the Redux2 notification/multitasking bar (very dark grey), highlight color changed from blue to orange which also goes well with the Go Launcher Transparency Skin for widgets
1) uninstall the Go Locker Four Key if you have it installed
2) install GoLockerRedux.apk
3) Enable "Go Locker Four Key" again
Note: you need to have Go Launcher and Go Locker installed off course.

Awesome! Would it be possible to change the action of the SMS to go to email instead? And the phone go browser? I am on a non-phone device and that would be awesome. Love the theme! Very good work on it.
I'm only a noob at this, so I'm afraid my knowledge doesn't reach that far, sorry
maybe someone else can help out with that...
Ok, thanks. Yours is still the best theme out there. And go locker released changeable wallpapers, so its even better!
nice bro.
thanks
Thanks, I really like this lock screen!
One question though, do you know by any chance how to make it into a 24h clock? I thought that maybe if there was an .xml file it could be modified, but I have no idea where it installs and I'm not sure it would work.
Any idea how to get it to run on a Samsung Galaxy S2? The easy way, uninstall stock Fourkey, copy GoLockerRedux.apk to sd-card, install via clicking, doesn't work. Installer stops without error message but 'Application not installed'.
Needless to say that I like your work. That's why I'm trying to get it installed.
Installed this no problem at all. Nice colour change.

hi,
I'm sorry, no idea what might be wrong... a couple of my colleagues installed it on different devices without any issue... no galaxy s2 though.
Have you disabled the lockscreen before uninstall?
cheers

I finally got it to work. Really nice theme, I'm quite happy with it. I just changed the clock's font to a one more fitting to my other screens.
Cheers

how about using the theme wallpaper as locker background?
I like this theme very much, except it seems to be flashed when I touch the circle. Can you fix it?
nice
thanks
Hi. I'm using a GO Locker Theme called Mango. And I can set a custom wallpaper but when I slide to unlock a lock image appears. So where are the themes files (the path to them) so I can look and try to change it? Because I want my custom wallpaper all along...
Hi there,
so I've been loving my lg g2 since the very beginning and I came to the point that I wanted to use the full big screen and turn my softkeys into GESTURES.
what I did: I rooted my lg g2, installed xposed framework with the G2 module to remove the softkeys. You can also do it with GMD hide softkeys app but the g2 module also gives cool settings for the softkeys (change icons,...).
Then I installed All-in-one gestures. With that app you can set gestures for the menu-, back- and homebutton. (and shortcuts or apps to open) You can also do this with the GMD gestures app but it's a more advanced app than the All-in-one gestures app. So for example my backbutton is now a swipe from the bottom of my screen. And I must I like using back like that. it's an easy gesture for you thumb.
I also installed nova launcher to automatically hide the notification bar.
another tip... with the xposed framework you can download the APP SETTINGS module. with this you can set the dpi PER APP!! I like a dpi of 360. below that it's starting to be very tiny letters I think. With APP SETTINGS you can also force to hide the notification bar PER APP. Gives a real big screen as a result!!!
Hope you like my tip!
grts,
Lionel!!
Try Ultimate Dynamic Navbar. More settings and customisations. Blows away all others imo.
I had the same idea.
But it doesn't work out.
1) Sometimes GMD gestures stop working (after turning on display or after rebooting when there sometimes comes a "device not detected" error) and if you don`t have the possibility to swipe up a nav bar then you are in trouble. Bad idea to rely completely on GMD.
2) On my N7 (2013) i can set (via GMD autohide softkeys) that in every app there is the old 3-dot menu button to compensate for the lack of the nav bar menu button. This is somehow not possible on the G2.
For stress-free operation, it's better to make nav bar just as small as possible (say, 50% height) and leave it on.
On phones I prefer much more Pie, I just think it's much faster than gestures.

I rather use GMD hide soft keys. All the buttons are a simple swype away ...

also I to use the 360 dpi, but the trick is to use -- 361 -- because then your apps don't switch into tablet ui. 361 is the sweet spot.
Have that dot to hide the navbar now, but now the navbar is white.
There are 6 different colors you can select for the nav bar. Find them under settings/display/navigation bar.

They are all white in Settings, although I've talked with a few others and they are not having the white problem.

I know - you've got white with a blue tinge, white with a red tinge, white with a green tinge, etc. They're all white though.
I use automate to get it back to black - it works for almost all apps, and it's a lot more consistent than that navbar play store app (which tended turn back to white if you hid the navbar).
Download navbar app from the playstore and you can get the navbar back to black or to whatever color that you want. Your welcomes?
Deleted.
Not sure why but mine is grey with white icons. Dont know what changed your color.

I use automagic but would be interested to see your flow so that I might be able to convert for automagic. I'm using the navbar app now and yes it is somewhat unreliable

I pulled the whole process from here - I've never used automagic, but this should help you out.
There's a new update out for S8 and S8plus security patch plus some other changes like wifi calling is now called calling plus

Update received this morning. QJH, 344mb, security update and MMS fixes.
I found a method for apps to ignore the punch hole to gain screen real estate (with some limitations). I hope some developer can use this to make a system-wide solution.
I did this on my s10e with One UI 3.0.
Inside MultiStar there’s a setting called “The app size stretch to camera hole”, there apps can be set to ignore the camera punch hole. By doing this you allow apps to stretch to the top of the display when hiding the status bar via adb, bx actions, etc. but elements at the top, although usable, will fall under a black or colored box and wont be visible.
Next step is to turn on “waterfall cutout” under settings/developer options/simulate display with cutout. This makes the status bar thinner on any app set to ignore the camera punch hole, and use the full screen when activating immersive modes but launchers, keyboards, edge panels, power menu, app switcher and other UI elements get black bars at both sides of the display.
It wou be amazing to see a workaround to the black bars.
I took some screenshots and edited in the camera hole for reference.

Thank you so much for this method! I have been looking for some way to utilize entire screen (instead of stuck with the default way Samsung hides their punch holes) since I purchased my Note 10. I was following someone else's advice to repack apps and set them to ignore the notch, but MultiStar is way easier to tweak and it works for all apps!

Oh hi this is exactly what I'm looking for. S10+ one UI 3.1
But I can't get this to work. I google multistar and saw it's an app in galaxy store, so I installed it. But I don't see any such app in the drawer. Searching settings shows nothing. It IS installed b/c I see package:com.samsung.android.multistar when I do adb shell pm list packages
Can you help? Thanks

Install "Nice Lock", it's the "launcher app" for these plugins.
