[Q]Xposed module to theme the navigation buttons on GPE converted phone - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know for an Xposed module that will theme the soft buttons on the GPE version? I've tried a few but they don't change! Ideally I'd like to make the soft buttons look like they do on Sense.

Yeah I changed the size and colour, but I don't really like the style of the icons and would like to change them. I've tried a few modules which were supposed to work, but they didn't change them.

Or can someone tell me where they're stored so I can edit them?

You need xblast tools, it had that option & many more. Is one of my favourite apps, is like PAC rom with dozens of customization options. Grab it here. Enjoy

Install Xposed and, in my phone, have a lot of graphical bugs with the tranparency of the menus, and the color of the notification pulldown is black, and i want stock grey. I dont say that Xposed is no good, but i think modifiying the apk, i'll obtain better results. By the way, thank

Statusbar tweaks

Hello guys,
Is there any way, xposed module or something like that, for editing the statusbar icons? I would like to move the signal and wi-fi icons to the left part of the statusbar. So far, I tried a couple of xposed modules but none of them worked on stock (.263) Sony rom. Thank you.

Don't know which ones you've tried, but typically Gravity Box, X Blast tools, Gem Xperia Xposed all will work on stock rom.
I have tried all of them. But none of them has the ability to rearrange the icons of the status bar.

That's the next one I was going to mention. It's been a while since I used it, so don't remember exactly, but it's not the same kind of 'push-button' auto tweak type thing like Gravity Box, etc. It's a little more technical, but way more versatile.
Yes, the mod Flat style bar indicators is incredible!!

THEMES, Overlays and Such

In light of the fact there's no real root I figured I must DO something to this phone! I MUST make it different than Samsung intended. I was going thru withdrawal. Really. I got to messing around with different Samsung themes (black is Always Right and all of that developers dark themes are pretty dope..btw); but I found in the process many of the s8 unrooted mods usually work. Do some research but I've personally used better nav colors, remove lock text, remove lock carrier name, more precise animation scale, transparent qs, different nav buttons etc. And they are mostly apks, so no struggle. At all. Overlay apks also work too.
Not taking credit for any of this and props to the developer/s. I'm just sharing. Here's a link to one of the best list I've found.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/themes/mods-small-collection-tweaks-t3657119
Even though it's a substratum thread the mods work without it. I tried substratum but it didn't play nice with my phone. Look for s8 threads in theme section by tigerhood and also clck. Most of their apks work on our phone.
Anyway maybe this is common knowledge but i couldn't find it anywhere else on the board so don't roast me if its nothing special. Lol
Thanks for this link, I have been looking and waiting for a long time for a way to hide the clock and battery icon in the status bar and this mod worked perfectly.
How did you change the nav bar icons?

Lots of options for nav bar.
Here is a list of nav bar layers plus many more.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73042403&postcount=1442
With substratum you have lots of choices too.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/themes/substratum-inversion-ui-overlay-overlays-t3604341
Most of these work. Check the links at the bottom too. I can't remember where I got my nav shown in the picture but I've had no issues with any. Only ones seems not to work are those that try to adjust the nav bar height. It doesn't break anything you just don't see any change in the size.
Other than that you have to reinstall all your overlays again if you change your theme.
Nav bar shown apk below. Works 100%
Again, I take no credit for these and props to the developer/s.
The closest I can get to all black UI is by using Mini Black Edition V2 from the Samsung theme store and Swift Black overlays. I still have white pull down notifications and white nav bar when the keyboard is shown.
Is there a way to black out the pull down notifications and nav bar while the keyboard is shown ?
There's an apk around on one of the links I posted or somewhere else, I can't remember, with an overlay that gives you a black notification panel. It looks really nice, but you can't see the text on notifications very well.
For the black nav bar use the following by Draco.
Edit: first post on this link is the best list I've found. I've tried many of them and they work just fine. Props to the developers and the member who pulled them all together in one place.

Looks good don't it? All courtesy of the links posted. Honestly with these mods, there's really no need for root. So until we get full root this is the set up.
Thank you for this post!

Which apk is that? The one that I came close to has a white background behind the notifications. Yours is black, Thanks

Use any of the ones that are system ui black notification. It should say that or something like that when you install. Then install the custom grey/ black notification. Or use any of the grey notification only ones and then the custom grey/ black

This is what I'm using but the text is grey.
The latest update for Swift Black included several stock TouchWiz apps which makes it even better

how to replace navbar icons?

so i just updated to pie and the navbar icons are almost as ugly as the previous samsung icons. how do I replace them? I just want to have the regular android icons, how can this be so hard?
so i guess that's a no
Give a theme from Galaxy Themes a try, some of them have AOSP navbar icons. They do change your app icons and other stuff though.
But then there's always the option to enable gestures in Settings.
I'd go for the latter if I were you.
Back on Oreo I used Swift Installer to apply an AOSP-like look to my phone which was good.
Swift Installer now works with One UI, the AOSP look isn't available though, but who knows, maybe it will be in the near future.
Doesnt Substratum still work on S9 with the Pie update? If so there are Navbar icon apps for Substratum?

There is literally an entire theme store built into your phone to do just this..

no themes in the theme store show the navbar on their preview images.
already downloaded many themes, none of them changed the navbar icons.
and again, I don't wanna change anything, samsung's default ui is already ugly as it is, don't wanna make it even uglier with user made themes, only wanna change the navbar icons to look like what google makes.
if you know of one single theme that changes nothing but the navbar icons, go ahead and tell everyone

If you ONLY want to theme the navbar that is what substratum is for .
