Question Need some help with initial setup

[djsubterrain]

LONG time OnePlus user, Just got my Z Flip 4.

Almost done setting it all up, one thing is bugging me though, how can I change the colour of the icons in my notification shade?

Can only see an option to match wallpaper colours or options in the Theme Store.

Is there no way to use a color wheel to choose your own color ?

Would also love to know how to hide the battery icon from the status bar (not just remove the percentage) cos I use the Energy Ring app to show the battery level around the front cam.

Well, I found my own answer for some of it.

Used the Good Lock app from the Galaxy Store to grab QuickStar where it allows you to customise your notification shade, including the colour of your icons.

Hell of a convoluted way to do what should be a very simple task.

Other customisation apps in there include :

Theme Park : To make your own customised themes
Wonderland : To make your own 3D motion wallpapers
LockStar : To design your own custom lockscreen theme
Clockface : To choose or customise your clock on lock screen or AOD

Was pleased to note that you can install custom system fonts too without root, I plumped for the Helvetica Neue for that "Apple feel", although there's some weird and wacky fonts on there, half of them looking like comic sans, that will never be on my phone lol

Good lock is a cool setup. I consider it like having xposed modules

Still looking for a way to disable the battery icon in the status bar though cos I use the Energy Ring app for battery level. Don't want to root cos I still want to use banking apps and CBA messing about.

Good lock can do that to. I got my icon removed and just a percentage in the corner

Use quickstar to remove the battery icon and I believe in nor.al settings you can disable the numeric
