[Q] How to resize desktop? - Themer General Discussion

Hello. Does anyone know how to resize the wallpaper ? I installed gravity box to remove softkeys, but the wallpaper act as if the button bar was still there. Can I resize the wallpaper in order to cover even that black bar on the bottom? Thank you

Hi,
If you're using a Nexus 5, try this:
1. Delete all the themes (/sdcard/MyColorScreen/Themer/ThemeCache).
2. Use Expanded Desktop mode.
3. Reapply the theme.
It should fit the wallpaper correctly, however we don't advise always having your soft keys hidden as Themer (as well as the themes themselves) work best on stock display settings.

Thank you for your fast answer, i've done as you adviced but the issue persists

How are you using the Expanded Desktop mode? Does applying new themes give you the same issue?
I've been using Themer with Expanded Desktop mode for a day now, using a few themes, and I've encountered no issues. Try various ways of using ED and one of them should work out

I'm using gravity box with extended desktop mode.
With the other themes the black bar is smaller but it's still there as you can see from the screenshots

Maybe uninstall Themer - delete the /sdcard/MyColorScreen/ folder - then reinstall.
As mentioned, Themer is designed to work best on a stock layout, therefore getting it to work with adjusted display settings isn't recommended. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Full Screen Wallpapers

I know the wallpapers that come with the phone are full screen (status bar included)
Can we download more of these types?
I notice when I try a Jelly Bean wallpaper it brings back the black status bar. it kind of makes the screen look a bit smaller that way
There is a mod here somewhere here that let's you use any wallpaper

depending on the launcher you use it may also have an option to turn on transparent status bar.
Any luck on this

I guess you changed the wallpaper. The wallpaper picker in Kitkat is really not that great compared to JB.
Try changing wallpaper, or reset the same wallpaper without cropping (Pinching and zoom) much.

No, its not the problem with transparency, so no need to tweak using GravityBox. The Wallpaper picker in KK is kinda different. In ICS/JB, the wallpaper picker was like .. you can crop the wallpaper using a rectangular shape, which fits the entire homescreen pages. But in KK, in the picker, you need to select the area for your centre homescreen. (The stuff you select will be applied to the main homescreen). The problem however is mainly because of the widescreen landscape wallpapers which is in 16:9 aspect ratio, the bottom part would be cut off .. which would look like the status and nav bar becoming black. Try experimenting more, and you'll understand it.

But when I use trebuchet launcher and change wallpaper it's fine with it. I presume that trebuchet also uses kk wallpaper picker or is it the other way??

Sorry I don't use Trebuchet so no idea about it. I'm using Google Now Launcher and the picker is this way, when I used Stock Launcher too, this problem appeared. You may also try setting wallpaper from the Gallery, and see if that works. Maybe I need to try some launchers based on ICS/JB, but my best bet would be it uses the Kitkat picker only.
EDIT: Okay so I guess its the problem with Stock Launcher as it lets you to pinch out (Leaving black bars) while GNL won't allow. See screenshot

Tried with the gallery but not working with stock launcher.
As of now trebuchet is working fine. no issues with it.
Hope that is fixed in 4.4.3. I should ask to other member who has updated to 4.4.3 to confirm it.
And tnx for your help..

You can again make the statusbat transparent by force stopping the statusbar from >Setings>Apps>All(Tab)..
The wallpaper will be resetted but u can change the wallie again...:good:

Theme Hidden Settings Icons

I was able to get the themes working using Xposed and G3 Teakbox but cannot get the icons to change when selecting them individually (long press and change). I can change them to only the stock icons. I cannot see the icons from the other themes like I could on my G2
Does anybody know how to do this? Is these a hidden setting I am missing?
Anybody able to change icons on stock launcher?

Long click on the icon you want to change.
You will see a purpler brush thing on the corner of the icon.
click on the brush and a screen will pop up showing you different icons for it.
Select a icon.
Hit ok.
Use icon changer from the store and you can use any icon pack you want

I have tried this but I am not able to see any of the icons from the icon packs. I just see a handful of icons or I can go to the gallery to see pictures.
I cannot see any of the icons from the themes that I have installed. I can change the themes just not the icons. I have a G2 and know how it is suppose to work and am not sure if the feature is just is not available.

What happened to the icons in the new update??

My icons have become somewhat transparent even when i use an icon pack, anyone know how to fix it?

Go to themes app, check if you've enabled transparent wallpaper, if you have, turn it off.

[Xposed][MOD][5.0+] Force black nav bar

I just got an Android 11 phone and to my dismay some older apps that display generally in a dark theme have an unmatching ugly white nav bar. This module turns nav bars black.

apk download: https://github.com/arpruss/xrecolor/blob/main/app/release/app-release.apk?raw=true
What phone, and can you make a semi transparent black for light and dark mode nav bar option

I have a OnePlus 9. But the xposed module will hopefully work on any Android 5.0 or higher phone.

It could be done, but since the apps won't be adapted for it, it might well obscure some app buttons at the bottom of the screen, so I am not inclined to do it. But if you want to, you can take the source code and just change opacity = 0xff to whatever you like in Hook.java.

In laposed what is supposed to get selected in scope system framework and systemui?
Or do I need to select every app that has a white navbar?

Finally, one that works. Tried on my Samsung Note 9 on Android 10. Thank you for sharing this module.
Edit: Turned out, it interferes with a button on my installed calendar app. I can't click a button at the bottom. I had to un-select my calendar app in LSposed. For my other apps, this module works fine so I still use it.
I just added two nav bar options in addition to black:
- 50% translucent
- match status bar (white when status bar is whitish; else black)

Hi arpruss, I can't find the settings to get to these added navbar options.
Can you guide us how to get to those options?
Thank you.

Tap on "Navigation bar."
Thank you. I found it
Hi @arpruss , would you consider adding another option for the nav bar to match the status bar color? For example when status bar is blue then nav bar is blue also.
Works perfectly on Oreo, thanks a lot
Hey, sorry for multipost but I wanted to push it to the top..
I'm on Oreo with the last, fully working version of Xposed as magisk module.
I noticed that some apps fail to "acknowledge" the navbar with your module enabled and that results in bottom bar,if they have one, being behind it and not being able to see or use it.
Can you please look into this issue?
Thanks for the module, I've been looking for something like this. Been using Nacho Notch to simulate something similar.
Seems like it can create some oddities in some apps. For example I've enabled it for YouTube (Vanced) and when I try to post a comment it refuses to show the comment box above the keyboard. Very odd issue, but it's fixed when I disable the module.
Also I cannot force the statusbar to be black?
I'm on Android 10 with an Xperia 5 ii

Yeah, I had the same problem.
Some apps even don't show the bottom menu if they have it.
It's really a pity cause I use both navbar customized with GravityBox and Xposed Edge for gestures and can't imagine my life without both of them lol ;P
So I have to bear the white navbar for now
What if I want some black navbar to white?
