This is a spin of the BlackBars.cab I did before, but this time with the gradients on top and bottom bars. Gives more of a vista look to the Homescreen. I have seen the BlackBars.cab floating around everywhere (included with homescreens and other places, so this one does have credit to me).
Make sure to select "Black Gradients" as your color scheme then reboot.
The color scheme is the T-Mobile color scheme, but you can edit/replace the BlackGrad.scheme.xml to change the scheme colors.
Please note: You must reset your device (power cycle) for the changes to take to the bottom bar.
A screenshot would be nice

Black Gradient with T-Mobile Homescreen and Custom Homescreen attached.
First thanx a lot for your Black-Schemes. Now I know who the author is
Is this one only for WM6?
On my (WM5) O2 XDA Cosmo the Gradient Scheme has no effect, even after reboot.
See attached screenshots with Black-Grad and Black-Bars.
Only for WM6
Thanks for Stericson's Transparent Tab and Icons and Manup's Icons and Status Bar. Here are some screenshots...See if anybody wants it then I will redo a update seriously...
I change the program title from grey to black and some colour tuning for status icons, the battery icon will also show as light blue and light yellow with shadow respectively
I actually really like this. The only thing I hope you can change is the menu tab. I prefer it visible, apparently unlike everyone else. I don't like the blank gap at the bottom of the screen, and I like to see the tab to re-assure me that it's there and that I clicked/dragged it.
Hey not 2 shabby
I Want It!!!!
Out of curiosity, why do several of the menu bars have diagonal lines on them? Is this an issue with resolution? I know the Stericson's first one didn't have it, but the new one does.
That's the image. It's supposed to be there.
Hi,
I've been searching around and I've tried a theme generator plus SPB extension BUT I just can't get the bottom bar with the soft keys to be white with black text.
BIG SORRY to trouble the forum with this simple request but how the h%ll do I make this simple thing work?
I attach the plain theme. My goal is simple black text on white for the bottom bar - surely that's not difficult? but, I can't make it happen.
Thanks for ideas.

IUtweaker changes the colours of bars and text with the right tweaks.Don't know if this will help?
Hey folks - BIG THANKS. IUtweaker is exactly what I needed for my minimalist theme.
I was able to change the softkey background very easily with this to white.
Regards, David
Can someone explain to me how Fade and Gradient fill styles are meant to work please? As far as I can see, neither produces results I would expect.
For example, open up the advanced parameters on a progress bar and specify the "fill mode other color" as, say, white. Then try changing the colour under the fill mode or the foreground colour - no change to the widget colour.
With Gradient fill, all I want to do is go from opaque white to transparent white but Zooper decides to get there it needs to go through yellow!
I'm either not understanding how the UI is meant to work here or these options are really busted. Anyone able to offer any help?
Example of the gradient problem is attached.

Yeah damn things been like this for a while. Shows some yellowish color for me usually. Mess with the foreground/background colors and it'll work right. Just have to F with it.
HSV gradient instead of a RGB gradient ?
I have the same issue and then googled a little. After reading these two pages "perbang.dk/rgbgradient" and "bensouthgate.com/p/12_3_13.php" (I can not post link now), I think the gradient is based on HSV and not RGB; the later seems however be more intuitive and correspond to what I imagine for a gradient from white to another color.
I don't think we can code a RGB gradient from the Advanced Parameter because some functions are currently missing.
If anyone has an idea...
So just recently got the 6.1, been great so far. Just have a question regarding the auto theme change when changing wallpaper.
When changing to a dark wallpaper changes to dark theme overall, however it's showing the sea-green color in brightness slider and volume sliders while showing the blue in app drawer in dark theme. It does show blue overall when it's in light theme state.
Just want to confirm if anyone else has it the same way. If you could post the screenshot with the version number, would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Same here, screenshot with version number of what?

I just meant screenshot showing blue in app drawer and sea green in notification drawer.
By version I meant model number of your 6.1.

Oh, I use Nova Launcher, so the difference is only visible on the brightness slider when the "theme" is dark or white. I like blue color more. For the volume bar I use "Volume slider" app and it change it to Android P style.
My device number is TA-1043

So on your end, when a dark theme's applied, it never shows blue in the brightness slider, right?

Thanks seems like a bug as it does show only blue in light mode. Post a screenshot as well if you can for both light and dark drawer themes.
Also in chrome, it shows white status bar instead of showing he color of the website on status bar.

About the white status bar, I think it was changed by Google in latest Chrome.

Not for chrome but I believe it happened after the 8.1 update, even though it looks good generally but not when a website changes top bar to a color and it still shows white.
Also aware of any way to get blue accent in status bar in dark theme as well, certainly seems like a bug, right?

Probably it is after 8.1, I searched a bit, but I didn't find any information about it.
According this (or any other screenshot for this feature):
https://www.androidpolice.com/2017/...ight-dark-themes-no-longer-exclusive-pixel-2/
it should be blue, so it is probably bug, but if Nokia did it or it is in Android One code...
I don't think it is possible to change it in "normal easy" way, but you can use Substratum + Andromeda + nice dark theme, e.g. I have "aospUI Dark theme", but is not activated.

True, I know it's supposed to be blue as I searched before as well, that's why I posted on here to know if I'm facing some sorta glitch or it's a general thing everyone has on their 6.1.
