Hey guys, as you know google is using a blue accent color for their system UI, sadly (IMO) essential is using a green accent and i would love to change this.

maybe someone knows how to change this accent color somewhere, maybe in the build prop or in the system.ui itself?

i attached a screenshot of which parts of the system ui i mean, its the notifcation area.

hoping for some usefull answers :)

EDIT: Simple as that, just use an substratum theme (pixel theme in my case)

Magisk and install the pixel experience module

Also note....don't build the initial Sai with Navigation selected. Do the Settings, quick settings, UI etc..but don't select Navigation..anytime I've done that, then rebooted the first time, bootloop.

Then, once you enable it in the manager, go back and select Navigation and build/enable it in the Themes section. Then, reboot and it will magically change you quick tile settings to the black/blue color. Found this method out experimenting, on the latest beta/build as well on Pie. You shouldn't have to go into Manager and select Navigation, it will be gold in color, different from the others, but it will be enabled and working on the quick tiles.

Good luck.
