HTC Sense 4.0 custom launcher transparent notification bar
Hello, When i got a HTC One X i got bored of the HTC Sense launcher after a week or so, so i downloaded Nova and i noticed that the transparent notification bar is no longer there, making the homepage of your phone look ugly compared to how it looks with HTC Sense launcher. I believe that it might be the phone thinks that the launcher is an app therefore it loses the transparency like with all apps,
If you have the knowledge of coding or know anyone who does that owns a HTC One X please could you ask them if there is anything they could do to make the notification bar transparent on custom launchers?
I was running an ICS rom few months back on my HTC Desire HD and the rom had an option where you could select the transparency of the notification bar, but it wasn't sense.​

The problem with sense is that by default the opaque status bar has a gradient, which looks really ugly on most launchers.
When running an AOSP/AOKP based ROM, I actually mostly prefer it to be opaque because it looks nice.
SlimROM has an option to set the transparency level for the status bar. But it does have a few artifacts, as you can see below:
With transparency:
Without transparency (how I prefer to use it):
And BTW, did you actually make that graphic just to show what you meant?
Looks really pretty. Could you post both of those wallpapers please?

I'm a perfectionist, and I was bored ;-) besides I want to show what I mean.
As for the 1st wallpaper that's something htc is using but I can't find it, second one should be included with all sense wallpapers

Hi all !
I would like to do the same thing.
I'm currently on Viper X and using Apex launcher. There's an option in ViperX which allow you to set transparency on home or on applications.
It's seems the first option doesn't work or is dedicated to sense. When I modify it, it's doesn't change anything.
The second option allow you to set transparency but the status bar is transparent on home AND on applications...
Is there an other solution ?
Thanks

Requires root. Can be done by theming in custom roms. E.g. CM7

Custom (transparent) status bar running LeeDrOiD?

Running LeeDrOiD 6.2.0 and GO Launcher (other launchers have been tried), is there any way I can make the status bar transparent or even solid black as the gradient bar kind of ruins my theme at the moment.
All the theming/modding links here seem to say they mess about with systemUI.apk which could screw up the ROM.
Removed Sense when installing if that helps.

Would absolutely adore a fully transparent status bar.
Seems there's only 2 of us interested but can anyone help or put my mind at rest and say it can't be done?
You can try this, should only inject transparent statusbar into your SystemUI.
Dont know, if it works with another Launcher than Sense, so dont forget to make a Nandroid-Backup before flashing!!!
LG, Helmut
Thanks for the suggestion. This mod changes the status bar in apps and the lockscreen but not Go Launcher home screens.
Will keep searching...
O.K., then GoLauncher uses another statusbar-background.png than Sense (using the one in SystemUI)
Dont know how to change it in GoLauncher
LG, Helmut

let me see what i can do.....
no that hard to do
EDIT : upload me your go launcher.apk , because market is giving me french version only...
Just in case anyone is interested, at some point GO must have implemented custom status bar support and it can be found here;
Menu (from home screen) > Preferences > Advanced settings > Support transparent status bar
I'm now running ViperX but I'm sure this would work across the board as long as your ROM supports and gives the option to change status bar transparency.

Thanks a Lot for all the support towards the work.
The status bar will only change in case of a MIUI Rom , and would never change in Stock ROM.

This is not serious it was me who had misunderstood : P
No issues Buddy. Other than the Status bar , you can use it freely like any other Launcher.
Hello people. I tried it on my FoxHound ROM. But I don't really like it so I uninstall it. Everything returns fine but for the lock screen I can't get back to my original one and thus screwing my lock screen. How now?

[Q] Quick Settings in the Drawer?

Hey there
The only custom ROM I have tried that has quick settings icons in the drawer is Team Venom's Viper. I have recently installed Android Revolution HD 15 and I am loving it, however it does not have the quick settings icons mentioned. I tried Googling and I stumbled upon several different applications for that purpose, but none of them work the way I want it to, including Extended Controls and Control Panel.
I am currently using the Extended Controls widget in one of the home screens and I have the Control Panel application installed, however when you open the drawer you still have to tap "Control Panel" and then you see the icons, not immediately. In the Viper ROM, when you opened the drawer you would see the icons and you can swipe left and right to reveal the other ones, and there was also a Quick Settings menu on the bottom which had them in a horizontal format, but I am guessing this one is developed by and only for Viper.
This is how I want it to appear:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Any ideas?
Thank you
EDIT: I'd also like to know if it is possible to get the AOSP lockscreen that was available to enable on Team Venom's Viper as well. Thanks!
no the mod is not out till now so your only way is to use apps like widgetsoid and stuff hope i helped and a thanks would be gr8
I had the same problem. None of the currently release JB roms ahve quick settings. Regarding the lockscreen you could always try lockscreen applications like 'widget locker' I know for a fact widget locker has the lockscreen you mentioned.
Well it's weird that Team Venom's Viper has it. I really miss that feature, it was probably the one I used most.
Yeah, I stumbled upon WidgetLocker and I got the Pro version after trying the normal one, it's really good, although you don't get several unlocking options like the real AOSP lockscreen, but then again I only used one of them which is unlock so it doesn't matter. Haha..
Thanks for your reply and help.
Try Widgetsoid app from Play
That is awesome. I did not know how to configure it at first but now that I have, it's amazing. Thank you so much, it does exactly what I want it to. If only it had a swipe left and right feature, but then again you can't always get 100% of what you want haha! I think the donate version has it, though, I might as well donate for it.

[Q] Change navigation bar icons in the Theme app?

Hi guys, I've been trying to figure out how to change the icon of the navbar for a few days now, still have no clue. It would be nice to have the Stock Android look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I see some theme on the market which have the navbar icons changed, so I assume that it is possible to some options (which I don't know about) in the Theme app to do that without rooting my M9, right?
Thanks in advance
Create a Theme here under Maker Pro
That allows you to change all icons and navbar stuff. I think it does anyway.

You have to use the pro -themer on the page.
Then nav icons and the clock widget have their own steps in the process.
Now... if someone can tell me how to hack the google icons inn instead of the choices htc give me... (they have one that is similar to stock but square is home and two circles indicate the task switcher. (and there is an ugly line on the back key))
i still can't find it
