I cant find out how to make the status bar smaller. Or ideally change the DPI settings...
I am running the Rastakit ROM and although I have made the navi bar smaller. I'd like the status bar smaller.
Any ideas?

Go to build.prop and find the number 320. Change it to 268. U need to use root explorer or es explorer.

Yes. Download icon changer or install nova, go or other launcher.

If you have root, you can try this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.liberty.toolbox&hl=en
I've used it to change my signal icon and it worked.
I use Icon Changer and Desktop Visualiser...
Icon changer actually makes an icon for the app with your chosen pic (so you can move it to the dock). It'll let you change the name, as well as a few other settings like rounding corners and contrast and whatnot.
Desktop Visualiser is a widget. You can use it to make any size icons you want, with custom pics and names. There is a demo video in the play store you can watch to show you how to use it and the other features it and it's addons have.
Hope that helps

Status Bar

When I log into a messaging thing such as Skype there is a logo of the Skype thing in the status bar. I was wondering if there is a way to make this not appear while I'm in that app. This is not a big deal but is annoying at times. By the way I'm on a nexus 4 using jelly bean 4.2.1

Look in the app settings - it will will say hide/show icon in menu bar. Or something like that

that will hide it all the time, not what the OP asked.
as to an answer, there is none that will temporarily hide icons based on focus. its largely up to the app itself to do this(for example jet audio or Google music)

Make the notifikation bar transparent

My note 2 is with android revolution hd 6.0 rom and it works good, but i would like to make the notifikation bar at the top transparent
Is that easy to do? Can i do it without an app or is there an app that makes it easy to change the notifikation bar?
It can be done quite easily with the tweakbox app in the xposed framework in this thread

The tweak box app is in this thread. If you set the staus bar like in the screenshot it makes it transparent. It doesn't work on the lock screen but does on the home screen.

Change dpi of status bar [Q]

Any ideas how to do that on a touchwiz rom?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
Are you trying to change just that? because its part of systemUi and would be a little hard to do on its own
I am trying to change the whole gui, but when I change the android system dpi it only changes like the power pop up menus. Not sure what I should change to get the status bar (and the drag down toggle) to change

Use xposed app settings.change system ui to 190 or whatever u want

Is this not what you're looking for?
Also 4.4.1 & 4.4.2 are supposed to have the transparent navbar as standard, but I'm running the N5 PORT rom so i wouldn't know.
well I tried it but it isn't always transparent it's only at the home page not I'm a open app or anything

Nova Launcher's latest update enables transparent Nav and Status bars now.
I also wanted the navigation bars and status were transparent in all applications and this is only possible in immersive mode. I wonder if there is any way to use the status bars and immersive navigation mode instead of forward slashes. Or at least there is some way off the fixed bars in immersive mode without them disappear.
I've tried almost every rom but I have not yet found one that has it. my search must go on

Each app's developer needs to enable that functionality for the app in question.
