I'm just coming over from a samsung s20 ultra and I'm loving the pixel. But how the heck do I get rid of that light thing at the bottom? I'm even using a custom launcher. Please look at screenshot. For me it serves no purpose and I don't want screen burn in or anything because of it
Good luck. Hope someone figures it out without lagging the Camera
You can make some changes in the settings. System/Gestures -
I changed it to the 3 button nav. I am old school... [emoji3179]

Thanks for that. I didn't know that was a part of the gestures. I love the gestures but wish that stupid bar could be made invisible

LOL, I'm surprised you didn't know about the gestures since Samsung is so enamored with them.
I hate it too but it seems like Google is just trying to copy Apple here as all the gesture based iPhones have it.
That's the area that triggers the gesture navigation. I think it's already too small as it is. Without it you'd have the system gesture area interfering with app space.

That would make sense but I'm able to do the gestures outside of the area as long as it starts on the bottom of the screen perfectly fine.

I know but some apps also have swipes right near the same area. I already have many instances where I have the wrong thing happen. I think getting rid of the gesture area would make that even worse.

Try flashing this. Hopefully it won't make your camera lag, lol!

The white bar can be simply turned off on the Oneplus 7t and it makes absolutely no difference to how the gestures work, why on earth Google want it there is beyond me, it does absolutely nowt. I have sent feedback from the phone to google asking them to make it switchable, maybe if enough people do that they will act, however this is Google we're taking about and as far as i am concerned the feedback option simply sends your feedback in to an infinitely deep bin where they can just ignore it.

One thing. If you already had a systemui mod installed, this module won't take effect until you delete the previous module. Being that this is a vrthemer and isn't replacing the whole SystemUI, it should now contain the previous mod (if you had one installed) also.
So no way to remove the white bar without root?

I've tried to search through the forum and see if I could find the answer I need but haven't had much luck. Hope you don't mind my post. I purchased one of these on Monday and I love it to bits. However couple of small niggles. When wifi is on/connection theres a gap between the wifi icon and the others signal / battery / etc. Is there anything I can do to sort that out on its own?
On a side note. I notice voice commands (not google now) just force closes on start once again ideas on this?
Thankyou for your time. This is a fantastic phone with amazing battery life and speed. wow!

Forgive me if i'm wrong but after trawling all the mods I can find will change other things. Like icons to AOSP ones and such. I was hoping to make that simple change alone if it were possible. Sorry to keep pestering.

You can download moded framework and systemUI apk's decompile them and decompile original apk's of course too then you compare them and you can find your desired change.
Here are some apk's extrated from Pixel XL's system image that can be installed like any other app and gave significant (or so) ch-ch-ch-ch-changes.
Tested on NBD90X with Pixel Launcher.
Google Dialer
NexusWallpapersStubPrebuilt (some new live wallpapers)
WallpapersUsTwo (more wallpapers)
Media folder (Notification, ringtones, Alarms)
CalculatorGooglePrebuilt (no visible changes)
PrebuiltDeskClockGoogle (no visible changes)
GoogleContactsSyncAdapter (no visible changes)
GoogleContacts (circle icon, but old layout)
LatinIMEGooglePrebuilt (Google Keyboard)
NOTE: It seems that structure of bootanimation.zip has changed. Now all the png have different size and there are a "trim.txt" file inside each "partX" folder that indicates the position of the pngs.

It's actually not that bad in practice, it's transparent so it depends on the wallpaper behind it. Tho I do agree it looks horrid in the OP's screenshot.

Just use Awesome Icons from Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.momocode.shortcuts
And
Pixel Icon Pack: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ciaostudio.pixeliconpack
The icons can be applied to homescreen(s) only, but root is not required.

Already ported works fine except the stock google camera doesnt work (you can just download another one from the play store) and when you boot up you get the "There's an internal problem with your device" message, other than those two bugs everything is awesome

Not sure if substratum would make an animated navigation bar like the pixels anyway I.have substratum on aicp 12.1 I've got the pixel navbar but its just static no animation however the animated navigation bar is working on the fake Nexus Rom for the Nexus 5 so it is definitely doable

xposed.. :/
I downloaded it from "Apk Mirror"!
Can't say I'm in love with it - it definitely will appeal to those who want simplicity.
Tried it. Can't switch off the Google bar or put the older Google bar up there. I think the new TouchWiz is fine.

When I use the power button for screenshot, I get a notification with share option without having to pull it down. So it is a setting, that by default is on.

Also pro tip: set it to alerting and pop on screen, but then change the sound it makes to "none". IMO making an alert chime is pointless for screenshots.
