Question about lock screen compatibility - Honor 7X Questions & Answers

So downloading numerous themes for the honor 7x I'm seeing that there are only two versions of lock screen designs that are compatible with our phone. It's either the default magazine style where the clock is in the bottom left corner of the screen or one where the clock centered high mid screen. Anyone else seen any other variations or styles that work? Like one centered low on the lock screen maybe.

Most of the things I read about that thing is that it's malware.

What about the ICS theme? It changes the icons to the standard ICS ones (and removes the rounded square around them).
You can see it in the video after 05:10.

Post Your Homescreens!

Let's see what you got!
I keep getting invalid image file when I use the app and when I go on the internet on my phone to try to post something. I don't know what's up with that.
Here you go. I love this phone. The edge shortcuts allow me to flow back and forth quicker without using multi windows or hitting the home key. The camera is top of the line and the finger print sensor is sweet.
Here's mine:

Xposed framework and unicon.
Rooted
Build.prop edit dpi to 590
Dynamic Notification to make my lock screen like the Moto X
G3 Wallpaper with Nova Launcher to organize the screen the way I like it.
The edge panel is really nice in that I can keep the main screen so much cleaner than I used to on my G3 like in the 4th pic.

But like his notification panel isn't an ugly mix of neon green and awkward navy. How did he change his to grey?
Edit: also how did he get rid of the S finder and quick connect icons.

Hes running forever locos theme.. your talking about all the toggles and all that. Yes, thats the theme.. mixed with some xposed, blurred systemui for the pulldown blur, and i believe its wanam or gravity box allows the removal of those icons you speak of, but in this case i believe the systemui was modded in the theme to get rid of that. Otherwise check out wanam or gravity

Still trying to make the most out of the edge panel. Love having a clutter free home screen tho!
Nice job everyone! My home screen is still a work in progress but I thought I'd mention one thing I like to do. With "ss launcher" you can extend your home screen vertically. I like it that way cause you can just flick the screen up to get to stuff below. (also applications page scrolls vertical once there). Anyways. here is an example of how the home page is extended vertically. So you see, below the usual home screen, I put an icon, a calendar widget and another widget called "recent apps" which I set to be a 3x3 grid so I can can easily go back and forth between apps one handed.
still mostly stock

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.

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!

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

Disable transparent status bar

I can't be the only one that thinks the new transparent status bar/tile screen is hideous! In some cases it resembles screen burn, which is not at all attractive, and I see no practicality of it. I was hoping some of my substratum themes would mask it or at least make it less transparent, but I haven't found anything.
Anyone found a way to disable it/revert to the older visual theme?

The Obligatory Screen Shot Thread

Show us how you're either highlighting or hiding your notch. I found this wallpaper that does a great job of blending the notch right in.

You cannot Screenshot the notch. There is hardware in the notch and no screen.
Notch is blacked out using Nacho Notch, allowing me to keep the notification text up there, but with a black background matching the notch and white text/images.
I don't mind the notch at all. It's the blocking of the status bar icons I can't tolerate.

Having come from the Essential phone I'm quite aware of that. I guess I should have worded it differently and asked if people are using wallpapers that are light or dark at the top.
Here is an in-app picture, showing it a little better. The black goes down just enough to cover the notch and still show notifications.
Simple. And I don't really even notice the notch already.

It's not a widget, but kustom live wallpaper with one of their free live wallpaper. Been using it for years and love it.
Yes, I like a lot of folders on my desktop. The background is an image I took with the phone.
These days I like to keep things nice and simple.
Nova Launcher Prime

I don't mind the notch. It's not noticable after a little while.

I'm less concerned about the notch and more concerned about the nav bar. This way I get as much real estate as possible

Been using it for a couple of years now
Looks good, has good system info, and has the very useful hotspots to trigger apps.
Combine it with Nova and you've got so many gestures and shortcuts available to set up and get you to anything on your phone.
I'm hiding mine with Nacho notch, hopefully google will implement a baked in solution like Essential. Using Nova launcher and as many dark themed apps as possible on stock.
