How to set the color of navigation bar to black? - Samsung Galaxy A8+ (2018) Questions & Answers

Hello,
I just bought A8+.
I want to change the background color of the navigation bar to black.
There is a setting to change the background color but it does not have black as an option.
I googled this and found an app called "NavBar Apps" which lets you set the background color to black.
But the problem with this app is that whenever the navigation bar appears, for one second the default background color is displayed and then it is changed to black. This is quite irritating.
Any idea how I can get the stable black background (preferably without third-party apps)?
Thanks

Try these cmds (make sure you got a pc with your phone plugged, and make sure you installed adb and Samsung USB Drivers):
Code:
adb shell settings put global navigationbar_color -0016777216
adb shell settings put global navigationbar_current_color -0016777216

Change color of menu-background

Hi,
I'm justing starting to customise my phone theme-wise and was wondering if there was some way to change the background of the menu.
I can change the text/render color using CM-Settings but I found no settings for the background. Is there some built in way to change the background color or do I have to modify the theme?
Attached is a picture of what I mean with menu-background -> here black.
/e: ok, render is more than just textcolor Is there some way to just change the textcolor?
I'm just looking for font color too. I got a whole black/red theme going on and that's the only thing left to change

status bar background color

Hey err'one !
Ok, I have gravity box installed and I have turned on the option for status bar colors. My issue is the colors I have selected are not shown all the time. For instance, on my home screen, the status bar background remains black. But if i go into the messaging app, or dialer, the bar turns to the color I selected.
Where should I look to make the status bar and text colors remain persistent while navigating through my device?
EDIT
NM, i fixed it. Conflicting settings between NOVA launcher and Gravity Box settings.
Thanks.

5.1 LP - change notifications panel text color?

Hey,
Im looking for an option to change one or several of the following options:
- change quick settings font color in notification panel
- change font color of app notifications
- set background color for app notifications only, not quick settings background
take a look at this screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/KnWq2s1.png
I want to keep the blurred style with 100% transparency for the quick settings background. But the black text from app notifications is hard to read sometimes, so I would like to change that to white. If that's not possible, make quick settings font black as well. If that's not possible, add a white background to app notifications only.
I can't find anything how to do that. Hope somebody can help me out.
edit: SOLVED
wow, after searching for hours with no result, I found something shortly after I made this thread. I used this to achieve this
so you used this to change the background of the notifications from white to match your selected notification background? I have been trying to figure out how to make the notification background not white...

Well, yeah, I changed the notification background color with LPThemer, but that's not what this post was about and I did it because of another reason. I was just looking for something that allows me to change text color of notifications, because the default black looks ****ty with transparency. It's default black because the default background is white. I used Blurred System UI to make the background transparent as well as add the blurred effect. Then I used LPThemer to change notification text color to white. Then I noticed notifications background was still white (not transparent) in Lock Screen, but the text color remained white. It's hard to read white on white so I used LPThemer to change the background to a half-transparent black. This background is only displayed in lock screen though.

Sweet I think I'm going to do almost the exact thing you did because I can't stand the white background on notifications blinding me at night... Plus it just looks bad. Good to know I can change the font to color to something legible. Good job
Help me

Question Strange Background Color on Gmail widget?

Hi maybe someone can help me.
I'm using the phone on OxygenOS13. Theme is standard due to the fact that the theme store isn't working probably.
My problem is, after adding the gmail widget on my home screen it gets a light red background. My Gmail settings are dark mode and if I open Gmail it is darkgrey. But at my homescreen the widgets background color is an ugly light red and I have to clue how this can be changed or what causes this?
Does someone also have the same problem?
Greetings!

The widget seems to follow system colors maybe wallpaper based or the default ones that depends on what was your selection
Thank you for your reply. I tried changing the accent color. But this doesn't help. The background is the standard one. But I'll try changing it. Ist there a setting to toogle if it depends on the background or not?
I am having the same issue. When I change my background to solid black, it always adds a green tint to some apps and the keyboard. I have tried about every setting to stop it in the wallpaper and home screen options, but it won't. Not sure what to do.
**EDIT... I found the answer by some stroke of luck. It would seem it's a google thing. My accent color looks exactly like the full screen pic included in the post below. There is no way to turn it off. **
