Sorry bro it's not working out for you. You can download an app called landscape wallpaper for the movable wallpaper.

You have to edit the seclanucher2.apk to enable it

If it's not available without a new launcher, use Image 2 Wallpaper and make your custom wallpaper fit properly.

[Q] Transparent status bar?

Hi,
Does anyone know how to set the status bar to transparent with the rooted stock rom? The only way to get a transparent status bar at the moment is by using one of the samsung wallpapers with touchwiz launcher. Setting your own wallpaper breaks the transparency in both touchwiz and Nova launcher.
There is a mod floating around in the GSM S4 forums, but I'm not sure if it will work for our phones.
Thanks!

It's in the works. Having some issues with apktool. Just sit tight. Hopefully by tomorrow :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

im sure someone will figue it out just like they did with the note2. i hated only being able to use a few apps.
not sure who figured it out but he made it so every app in your app drawer was in their and you just removed the ones you didnt want

Do you have a link to the thread or remember what it might have been called? I'd be down with working on this as long as I had that as a starting point. I would love google music in there

If you look at a picture of that you see a small circle beside the window, I guess that's the magnet.

Under all apps it is called clock widget. Not sure what the official apk name is. It's probably the lg one that you mentioned. If you dont mind,PM me a link on the files so I can grab them or share them with me through google if you would like.

The lg clock widget definitely has references in it to quick cover. I was only able to look at it for a bit, but it had all the colors and mentions of the fancy watch faces as well. I didn't see where that would get activated though. I was going to look at lglockscreen tonight to see if there was a way in there to add more widgets. Let me know if you find anything and if i can help. Good luck

Will do. I'm gonna dig into framework tonight and see what's there
Sent from my VS980 4G using xda app-developers app

So i haven't found anything in the framework. I'm gonna see if i can get ahold of systemui or the launcher app and look into both of those. I did however create a slightly modified clock widget app for quick window. If someone would like to test for me... The only differences should be that purple is changed to green and i took out the backdrop faded 8 behind each number. I would appreciate a tester to let me know if the mods worked or not.
Thank you. link below

Have you tried clearing the cache?

But i don't think this is a problem. I think it's a new 4.4.2 feature that cannot be disabled. Maybe I didn't describe my problem right. When someone calls me and I don't pick up you can see the missed call in a big notification rectangle in the lock screen. This means that someone can just take your phone and see who called you even if you don't want to. I try to find any setting to disable this but it looks like it's a widget in the lock screen.

If you can't disable it in the settings and the developer didn't include an option for that there is no way to hide it.

I guess you are right but this is crazy not being able to hide this. We should have control over our privacy.

That is one of many reasons why I am not using TouchWiz.

You think if I use another launcher it will not do that?
Edit : just tried another launcher and it still does the same thing.

I think what you have on your lockscreen is a lockcreen widget. Have you tried disabling Lockscreen widgets?
Maybe if it is a standalone widget it can be removed from the screen. Try and report back.

No I haven't. I don't think the third party lockscreens are as safe as the original ones.

I can't help you with the mod but you might want to take a look at this calculator app, it's quite nice.

I've had a lot of luck with the Andie Graph app. I was very familiar with using my TI-83, and having it at quick access on my phone is the best!

Here are a few ROMs for the app (TI-82, 83, 86, etc...)
