Is there a way to get a transparent nav bar besides the xposed module that requires a ton of tweaking?

Replace "SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-xxhdpi\navigation_background_transparent.9.png" with a transparent one.
Edit: Do you mean fully transparent or the GEL Gradient NavBar?

The one that the xposed module does is nice but it requires padding on almost every app and it ranges from 0-256. "ain't nobody got time for that.

My gripe is the status bar . They added so much transparency to it they should have just left the damn thing transparent . Im running ViperOne and it has a setting that allows you to change it . Personally Id prefer to manually do it myself but its been a while since I messed with HTC and their frameworks / systemui . So slowly learning how to manipulate it in terms of changing things . I usually prefer to make these changes myself .

Here are the simple ones .....
Transparent Status Bar
Replace the status_bar_background_transparent.9.png with a transparent one in
SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-xxhdpi\
{
"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"
}
Transparent Nav Bar on Homescreen and Blinkfeed page
Replace the home_launcher_bg.9.png and home_panel_gradient.9.png and prism_feed_gradient.9.png with transparent ones in
a) if you have com.htc.launcher-1.apk in data\app\
com.htc.launcher-1.apk\res\drawable-xxhdpi\
b) if you have only Prism.apk in system\priv-app\
Prism.apk\res\drawable-xxhdpi\
and also change the navigation_background_transparent.9.png with a transparent one in
SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-xxhdpi\
and you may need to change the transparency for the Lockscreen after you made the above change to the Transparent Nav Bar because it will look weird like this
change the lockscreen_nav_bg.9.png to the transparent one in
HtcLockScreen.apk\res\drawable-xxhdpi\
then it will look like this

Good info thanks, you helped me track down a couple of files that I was looking for.
A question if I may, do you know what file(s) are putting that annoying line between the dock and the navbar ?

Open the files in an image editor and erase the image leaving a transparent image or create new transparent images of the same sizes and replace the existing with the new.

Thank you. But where is the xx.apk/res/xxhdpi located? And what image editor would you suggest?

SystemUI.apk, HtcLockscreen.apk and Prism.apk are located in system/priv-app/
and if you have com.htc.launcher-x.apk, it is located in data/app/

This will need xml editing (unless someone can come up with better idea)
1. edit : com.htc.launcher-1.apk(or Prism.apk)\res\layout\main_launcher.xml
search for
Code:
<ImageView android:layout_gravity="bottom|center" android:id="@id/nav_bar_div" android:paddingLeft="@dimen/margin_l" android:paddingRight="@dimen/margin_l" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:src="@drawable/common_b_div" android:scaleType="fitXY" />
then change android:layout_height="wrap_content"
to android:layout_height="@dimen/navigation_bar_divider_height"
2. edit : com.htc.launcher-1.apk (or Prism.apk)\res\values\dimens.xml
add <dimen name="navigation_bar_divider_height">0.0dip</dimen> to it
You'll have as in this screenshot

Perhaps there's something wrong with the way my apk was compiled but there were no errors.

Great ....nice homescreen
Maybe you want to update it again as I just reuploaded a new one as I notice an extra png that is not supposed to be in the apk. (but it will make no harm with that extra png).

The lower part is controlled in SystemUI.apk
I guess the launcher is not replaced.
To have the Transparent Status Bar only, the navigation_background_transparent.9.png need to be the original one.
Do you want only the Transparent Status Bar ? I'll make one tomorrow as it's very late now... it's 2.30 am here and it's my bed time... good night (maybe you can PM me on what actually you want to achieve)

Mostly used Cm10 icons and some of the International 50% transparency icons. Screenshot shows a modded mms icon in lockscreen, thats not included and the Carrier id will show FreeGS3 (I just changed mine to Bizdady).
Note: This is specifically for Clark44's FreeGS3 rom as its Framework, SystemUI, Lidroid specific, if you flash on stock rom you might bootloop or lose status bar
Whats Themed:
framework-res.apk
lidroid-res.apk
SystemUI.apk
SecSettings.apk
To Do:
Add semi transparency to pull down.
Add Transparent Status Bar option
Finish Themeing Toggle selector Icons in purple version, only main toggles themed at moment (I missed a few brightness,lockscreen, timeout)
Change brightness slider to match toggles color?[/COLOR]

I edited the update script and make the UIPrints a little different. Changed a little xml in your framework-res.apk to make sure there is no cell standby is not an issue.
Bizdady mind letting me know if you have a specific version number in mind?

Are you on the latest v.0.0.8 FreeGS3 rom by Clark44? It uses specific framework and SystemUI.apk files from that rom.

That is an old icon I think I got from a MUI rom ages ago but still like it so I modded my mms app to switch the stock icon since the lockscreen uses the stock icon.
I attached it if you want to give it a try, just flash in recovery or extract the apk and push it to system/app

[REQ] Semi-transparent status bar/notification bar

I'm using a stock-based ROM that was made using UCDLK3 firmware for the AT&T Galaxy S3. (Intergalactic II) Could someone make my statusbar (or notification bar, whatever you call it) look like the one in this picture?

Go to the Play Store. Put a search in for Super Status Bar. You can make your status bar any color u want among many other features BUT I'm not sure about 50 percent transparency, like your pic shows.
Give it a shot though. Pretty cool app.
EDIT: Just tried it and I can make the status bar 100 percent transparent with the app. This is on Liquids AOSP 4.2. The app is universal tho so it'll work the same for TW ROMS.

			
				
Just a comparison screenie of the status bar without using the app.
Hmm.. this doesn't seem to be what I'm looking for exactly. It seems like it's an app to fully replace the status bar. Just to clarify, I am looking for a way to theme the default status bar, not replace it with a 3rd party app.
Send me your systemui.apk, the percentage transparency you desire (and colour if applicable) and I will cook it up for you.
If you are able to compile/decompile the systemui, I would also be happy to give you instructions how to do it?

@David Dee:
I can't seem to get my status bar to be transparent. I can change it from black to whatever color I like, blue for example:
- Image
- Image
(Yeah, I've changed the battery icons, connection icons and notification center background with success)
I am changing the HEX colors for the status bar background in SystemUI/res/values/drawables.xml and some status bar and notification center related files in SystemUI/res/layout. The HEX color for full transparency should be #00000000 (AARRGGBB format).
When I use this color, the statusbar stays black (like it is default)...
What am I missing here...

Change line 2 in tw_super_status_bar.xml (found in ~/res/layout) to this:
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.StatusBarWindowView android:background="#[COLOR="Red"]00000000[/COLOR]"
Also change
The transparency of the status bar in tw_status_bar.xml ((found in ~/res/layout)
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.PhoneStatusBarView android:orientation="vertical" android:id="@id/status_bar" android:background="#[COLOR="red"]00000000[/COLOR]" android:focusable="true" android:fitsSystemWindows="true" android:descendantFocusability="afterDescendants"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:systemui="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/com.android.systemui">
<LinearLayout android:gravity="center" android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@id/center_clock_layout" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
I am not in front of a pc right now, but you could make 1 xml change so thst rather than a color it will use a .png status bar of any type. Basically (and I may have the path wrong right now) but fhange where the status bar xml is from #ff000000 or whatever it is to @drawable/status_bar_bg and then look in your systemui/xhdpi folder and you will see a status_bar_bg.png that you can make or change to anything/any color you want. If you cannot find it right away let ke know and I will type the exact path to it and what to change it to. Then once done you can use Morohology's different status bar backgrounds they have available or make your own VERY EASILY. I did this for my SGS2 and made a post with many themes. Status bars being one of them.
This will make it so you wont have to change the systemui xml again on the firmware. You can just flash a cwm zip each time with a different stats_bar_bg.png each time you want to change it.

If you properly decompiled the app with a tool like apktool. Then the systemui.apk you used is not deodexed. Look in your /system/app folder for a file called systemui.odex. If it is there you need to deodex it before you can so this mod.

Hi Friends,
This is a little Tutorial about changing app icons permanently. There was a lot of applications available in Playstore like
“ icon changer free” etc etc to change the app icons. But the problem is that u cant use that changed apps in ur app drawer. U can only use that in ur home screen as a shortcut.
So I just decided to put a little tutorial to do that easily. I know everybody will know this already. But it will help for someone I am sure….

(1) Get some cool icons from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2207136 and save it ur PC. Give him big thanks for the work.
Edit:- If u need some cool Galaxy S4 icons means go here: - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2216289 Please give thanks for his work..
(2) Put the apps u want to change the icons to a Folder in ur PC. For example SemcAlbum, Phonebook, Browser etc
(3) Here I am taking the Phonebook app for Example..
(4) Right Click the Phonebook apk -> Open With -> 7zip File Manager. Then U will get a box contained some files like this
(5) Then double click on the res folder and u get another box like this
(6) Find the folder named “ drawable-xhdpi “ and open it. U will get This
(7) And most important thing is u need to find the original icon and its name of the phonebook.apk or whatever apk u take …
(8) For that an easy way is create a new folder in ur PC’s Desktop and select all the images from the box ( Image 3 ) then drag it to the that new folder in the desktop.
(9)Then open that folder then search for original the apk icon. like this
(10) In my case the name of the Phonebook.apk’s icon is “ic_launcher_contacts “. So just note down the icon name and then open the folder that contains the icons that u downloaded. Like this
(11) And choose which icon u need and select it. Then rename it to the exact name of the original apk icon. ( For example ic_launcher_contacts )
(12) After that just drag that renamed icon to res/drawable-xhdpi. It will ask for overright. Press Ok or Yes. That’s it. Copy the apk to ur phone and move it to the System/app with correct permission…
Check this Attached Images for your reference .
U can do it with almost all the apks. But I cant guarantee that it will work with all apks. Some System apks did not worked for me…
And also u can take icos from other apks too..

Tried desktop visualizer but it's only shorcuts. For ninjamorph,mvoid, it works but semcphone.apk doesn't change. Don't know why ninjamorph pro doesn't work well. I'm thinking that it's gettimg conflicts from busybox. Btw, how do you change the icon resolution again? Mine's a bit bigger when using the extensions for fb and camera.

Nice tutorial. You will help many to change icons. You may want to warn people about changing the resolution for Conversations.apk or else the add attachments icons look like this:
Lol.
I just fixed it by lowering the conv_take_photo.png resolution(72x72 or whatever works for your phone) and changed whatever else would show up when attaching things to message. Here it is fixed.

If you want to use the at&t themed icons in your own mod, rom etc, please feel free to do so.
good job bro..keep it up :good:
These are awesome. But is there any way these could be combined with a battery pct mod, flashing this overwrites any battery pct mid, and vice versa. Tried to combine them on my own but couldn't figure out how.

Sorry I can't test it since I don't have my device yet, but since my previous zip was flashed without problems then I don't see why this new one should.

These work awesome, but one thing I've found, is that on the 10 intervals, 100,90,80,70 etc, the blueness of the battery disappears, and a full green battery shows. I'm at 63, at 60 I'll screenshot it.
Here's 20%

My bad, lol, I had already posted them on the AT&T forum, but I'd gladly post them here as well
Apparently the inandout icons were left on a static ripple animation (that was my fault, sorry ) but I've fixed the files and fixed the battery icons from changing to green at 10% intervals.
There are 2 flashable zips. Regular and Centered.
Have fun guys Any input is more than welcomed.
