I'd really love a transparent status bar and navigation bar. It looks like this has been done here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1388554&page=12
Unfortunately this does not work on 4.03 and in addition there are differences between LTE and CDMA so the mod would need to be LTE specific in my case.
Does anybody know of such a mod that exists? I've searched high and low. Thanks!

Thanks for the statement, now you mind sharing the info....gotta screen shot, where's the mod? I assume you're running the GSM version?
me wantz this too.... !!!!
Works for me on 4.0.3 - you need to put in some work yourself if you dont want the percentage battery, tho. ROM needs to be deodexed afaik.
Frysee, Is that a flashable CWM file? and does it work with LTE/Toro Nexus? Thanks in advance... Realy looking forward for this mod.
Will this work on revolution HD 4.0.2? Also can toy flash it through cmw?
Would love to know if this works on the CDMA nexus as well, specifically running Axiom 2.4, with battery percentage and search button in nav bar enabled
Is there something with only the clear Navigation bar? I dont want to mod the status bar
does this work on gummy rom?

I'm on milestone 2 and it has softkey mod also. Idle on rootzwiki did for me. He is awesome. He has others posted too with softkey mods built in you should go look. He may be able to custom make one for you like he did me. Here's a pic.

softkey mod is easy as long as you have the PNGs.
hmmm. maybe the notification bar and navigation bars are also just a couple of PNGs?
can anyone point me in the right direction? I think I can do this myself if I know which files to replace

Idle has then built into one mod. So get the transparency plus choice of different softkeys. You can ask him how he did it.

I tried to do the mod with apk multitool and decompiling the systemui.apk myself last night but I kept losing the nav bar and not bar, then I tried to do Idle's mod and I still kept losing them despite it being built for AOKP m2, so if you figure out if its just a png replacement let us know!
I been at this all night; couldnt get it going at all...just kept losing everything. And here I thought I just didnt know what i was doing. Let me know if anyone figures it out.
Thanks
There are a couple things that I want to do but I can't seem to figure out, and I've searched the 1200+ pages in the Shooter ROM thread, and there's nothing about a how-to guide. Is there even something like this written for ROMs normally, or are we just kind of left to our own devices, as it were?
Thanks.

I don't have 10 posts yet. Most of the time, I get completely lost trying to find my own answers on here, and I usually end up giving up at some point.
I don't really need a how-to on ROMs in general, but every ROM, and every UI is different. Like, how do I change the icons on my lock screen on my Shooter 5.5 build ROM? Questions like that, how do I do this or that, not really a question of how do I install it, how do I wipe my cache, that I usually just follow the instructions for the ROM, but after the ROM is installed. Some ROMs have more settings/tweaks/features, and some have less.
Do you know what I mean?
Some of the themes might do it for you..

I need help with:
How do I change the 4 icons on the HTC lock screen?
Can I change where it says "Team-Nocturnal" at the top of my screen to something else?
Can I change the stupid ring unlock to a left-to-right slide, while keeping the animated sense htc weather background?
That's about it, thanks again if you know how to change any of this stuff.

4 icons- Click personalize, then choose the lockscreen you currently have, it should say apply and settings under it. Click settings and ir should have the 4 little icons and you can click one and re assign it with a different app.
Change lockscreen ring- go to settings>tweaks>miscellaneous and then find lockscreen style. It should have the one you're looking for.
As for the team nocturnal thing,, can't help ya there. Im sure MBQ can tho

Thanks, although it's annoying to have to reboot to change my lockscreen style. And it appears that the lockscreen style is tied to the weather animation as the "HTC Sense" style. I really like how fast the "android" one is with it's side slider, but there's no weather animation. These things are never 100% what I want, and it's really annoying.
Whenever I click personalize, it just goes back to the home screen. I've read that this is a ROM issue, but I've done 3 roms so far, warmtwopointtwo, shooter, and cm7, and all 3 of them have this behavior, is there an app I can get, or is there some tweak I need to do to get that to work?
hey guys,
i've done some searching, but have come up short, and i was wondering if anyone knows of a way to mod AOSP status-bars to be clear like MIUI (maybe with a flashable zip?)

I just stumbled across this thread. The issue is that its not just simple status bar transparency. That's easy, and it's already in the settings menu in ROM Control for AOKP. With MIUI though, you can have the status bar as totally transparent when viewing the launcher/desktop, but it's not transparent, or it's semi-transparent when you are viewing apps like the browser or when viewing the lock screen. So the question is, how could one implement different status bar settings for different views as it is implemented in MIUI?

I was really just trying to find a way to implement a clear status bar on the desk top/launcher on GB aosp roms (specifically, on decks reloaded.) I wasn't so concerned with the status bar in apps, browser, etc. I've tried uot kitchen which was mentioned above, but wasnt successful. as to why it wouldn't work, I don't know.

as i said in the pm's i really think its the way the statusbar is incorporated in the rom, best bet would to be ask in the rom thread that way a developer could give the right answer instead of me guessing at it.... lol im guessing the thread you found didnt work either?

Yes there is. Google search pvyparts battery bar. He wrote an app that does this. Only downside is that u have to edit ur systemui to get it to work. Since every rom is different its hard to make it flash able due to didferent systemui.apks. this is the battery bar mod I added to my cm9 rom.

we are actually talking about the statusbar and making it transparent. in reloaded there is an app for the battery bar and is simple to adjust. but in the rom it has a ICS-like statusbar (all black with the ics-blue signal bars and battery icon and what not). What atljatl is wanting is the entire statusbar to be transparent. Like in the miui and some sense roms that have had the flashable zips to make transparent statusbar.
Gotcha. That is a simple mod in the systemui.apk. just changed either the icon or xml backgroubd to transparent. Again I'm mobile so can't do it fir u right now but will when I get home if ud like

T-Mobile Galaxy Note 2 - Rooted. I don't want a full out custom ROM yet, but do want a centered clock, ability to change colors on the status bar up top, and the ability to display only the % of the battery, and not the battery icon... Direction please?
This would be great as I also would prefer just the numbers.
I'm going to mess with that Rom Fumbler thing... I can do Web Development and used visual basic a while back so I should be able to figure this out ill bet.

Running stock deodexed LJC rom.

Fyi this should be in the Q & A section. But to answer your Queston, in my opinion, a completely transparent "status bar" causes the bar to change color to whatever the last app was that was running behind it. It retains this color until another app is opened that changes the color again. That's probably why people keep at least 25%. As far as the "notification background" (dropdown window), I'm sure there are a few out there. Some roms have the option built in. Id recommend trying an aokp rom or a heavily themable Touchwiz ROM. I'm on tmobile though so i can't help you choose the right ROM. Good luck!
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Which LJC rom are u running....I think ur looking for a stand alone mod that'll give you 100% right.......check themes and apps and see if there is something there. Also check with ur rom's dev....he may have something in his mods section or maybe working on something already
Morphology will allow you to set it at 100% transparancy. It's posted in the themes section and allows you to modify alot of different things. A little weird to navigate through since you do it in recovery... I would recommend writing down the options you want from the thread before you actually launch into it. And of course make a back-up first. Have fun!
