[LAUNCHER,LOCKSCREEN DEV] Invoke transparent statusbar - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I'm the developer of Smart Launcher. I'd like to include the possibility to use transparent statusbar on S4 like touchwiz does. I know it is possible because Apex Launcher has an option to enable it (it doesn't require root). I didn't find any documentation on samsung's site/forum. Do you know how to do it?

Not sure how to do it but I know the Xposed Framework with the addon called Wanam allows enabling or dissabling transparency in Touchwiz.
While this is not a prefect answer, I think the Xposed framework amd perhaps even the Wanam addon are open source... wo chech them out.
Also if I remember from my DX2, doesnt the Eclipse ROM have transoarent bar? If so perhaps PM the dev

Xposed - modules and Xposed theme engine

I have confirmed that Xposed is in fact working for the Samsung galaxy tab 3 7 inch. Other please confirm the 8 inch and 10.1. I am going to post a link to my collection of modules and themes. I will try and keep this as up to date as I can. Cool thing is even some of the themes are working. Just download and install the Xposed theme engine then install the themes. All credit goes to the developers and themes as well as the porters. All apps in the folder are free and can be found around XDA.
I would also like if you guys find some not included here to post a link to that thread. This will be like the Xposed app/module/theme thread. One stop shop to get all things Xposed. Also my folder is used by other devices so not all will work.
I am at work and doing this on my phone. So bear with me. Institutions and screen shots to come tonight.
How to install Xposed:
Download and install installer apk
allow root and hit the button to install frameworks
click on the modules tab and turn on the modules you have installed
reboot
enjoy
Now the installer is where you turn modules on and off. So after you install a Xposed module go into the installer and turn it on then reboot.

I have never used Xposed themes or modules, but this looks like a much simpler way of themeing. Thank you for the thread. I will probably dive into this soon.
This is awesome... Tried to apply the multiwindow one but failed miserably at even knowing where to find the setting/toggle... Am i dumb or its not working ?
after installing xposed app i tapped install/update and soft reboot ! but now m stuck on samsung logo
i need reply fast because its not my tab n m afraid that i will need to flash the stock rom
Not sure why you are in a boot loop. I had zero issues with xposed on the device. The app places a flash able zip on your SDcard to remove the frameworks that you just have to flash through recovery for issues like this

Not working with Galaxy Tab 3 10.1
It says it doesn't support x86 architecture.
Edit: The latest Xposed framework update now support x86 architecture. and now it works on Galaxy Tab 3 10.1!
What are you running?

Finally I root SM-T211 (without Odin as mentioned in General section) and enjoying Xposed. Managed to make Facebook font bigger, and Flipboard in PhoneUI with App Setting. I was trying to change Contacts, SMS and Setting to be in PhoneUI without success. Any clue?
Not without a log. Might be a known issue for that xposed module. Have you checked in the thread for it?

I have managed to get a 5X5 launcher more or less working through the Nottach xposed framework module.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2285074
It is working for most apps and I am saying most. My Smurfville Game and my Barcode reader caused problems which required the device to be rebooted.
Good Luck
I have used the xposed framework repo for that and it worked beautifully until I upgraded to android 4.3 on note 2.
I've not gotten this to work on my note 3. It is installed and the module is enabled. Anyone have luck w/ this yet w/ 4.3?

Check this thread HERE
just choose the launcher style you want and install and be done with it... works like a champ and there's a few different options there that are pretty cool...5x5 launcher rotation to landscape with 5x6 app drawer was a winner for me.

AOSP lockscreen on stock ROM 4.4 ?

I don't want to use third party app as a lockscreen
Any advice ?

It is possible, but would require rooting the phone and editing the framework.
Finaly using Widget Locker, no problem with root helper

[p700] Lockscreen Widgets in PA 4.4-BETA

Hey guys.
Using the great ROMS from this site for a while for all of my devices.
I have installed PA 4.x a while ago (2-3 weeks) from this Thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2674626) and am very happy with it. But I can't enable lockscreen widgets. I searched the whole Forum and clicked any button and do not know what is wrong. Aren't there any lockscreen widgets on PA? Also in "Security" where an option like this should be there is only a greyed out option "Maximize Widgets".
I would ask in the thread, but have not enough posts. Yet, I hope tehre is somebody who can help me.
Thank you.

That's a feature that was imported to CyanogenMod ( which i was using till today, and now im on Paranoid ), but PA isnt focusing on small things like that, than on more performance, smoothness... As you can see CyanogenMod 11 for L7 is 200MB and PA is only 140MB, those are the missing things
But you can still do it using Xposed Framework Modules.
Xposed will let you edit the things as you like using Modules which you can download directly from the application.
Download Xposed from here: http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer
Here is a video how to install it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75y8fuAUxQI
And when you finish download GravityBox, enable it and Reboot the phone. ( It's also shown in the video for GravityBox).
GravityBox is a module for Xposed and you can use it to make a lot of things like change statubar color,icons, notfication bar, , transparency, lock screen settings... JUST DON'T EDIT THE BATTERY ICON LET IT STOCK ONE BECAUSE IT CONFLICTS WITH THE ROM !
You should play a little with it, and discover how it works
Also search Xposed for other module BUT DO NOT COMBINE ANY OTHER WITH SIMILAR FEATURES LIKE GRAVITYBOX, download modules for other things NOT FOR THEMING THE PHONE !
Here are some i use:
CpuTemp In Status Bar
Boot Manager
Smart Booster
Search for them in xposed you have search under Modules
Hope i helped you.
