[Q] How to get transparent status bar?

Hi
I am new to android and only today i rooted my nexus 4 and installed cyanogenmod 10.1. The reason why i rooted by device is because i need transparent (or semi transparent) status bar and a transparent bar at the bottom (the area with back and home). Is there any particular app or anything to get a transparent status bar??
thanks in advance

compiling systemui.apk and android.policy.jar to enable transparent statusbar and navigation bar right now. Will post APK if it works.
UPDATE : Who needs PNA :3

No joke, I thought the same.
AOKP has the transparency option as well, btw.

AOKP lets you adjust the transparency from 0-100%, both top and bottom or individually. It's also a great ROM all around.

Really looking forward to this if it works I've been trawling through the internet for something like this but there was no simple flash apk solution; there were many DIY methods that never seemed to work :S Will this work with stock ROM?

as far as i know it should be deodexed. just install a deodexed one (there are plenty of stock deodexed roms here on xda for n4). i am interested in this too
man i hate the new "wait 2 mins before edit until you a sufficient number of posts" )

Thank you. I installed and AOKP rom.

I still want the apk file. Please post it exb0 when you're finished

Hi. Can you please tell me what exactly u want.
Sent from my Nexus 4

he actually wants the zip file so he could flash the transparent statusbar mod on a deodexed rom on n4. if you want the systemUI.apk file then you should also get the modified framework-res.apk.

I can only do it if you're running CM10.1. I will NOT compile it for stock or any other rom.

if you do it for cm 10.1 then i'd be grateful thanks

not sure if this will work for you, this is compiled with the latest nightly. I sync it everytime. 50% on the statusbar and 100% on the nav bar. Push the APKs yourself or make a ZIP for flashing.

it doesn't... i mean it sort of... works) it f****d up the navbar meaning i can work on it but has flickering and shows images of the statusbar on the background and other stuff which shouldn't be there.

I think you'll have to use my rom instead

Is it not possible for this to be done on the stock ROM?

[Q] Tranparent navbar on stock/cm10.1?

is it possible to get transparent nav bar on stock or cm10.1? I am aware that aokp has this, but I prefer cyanogenmod.
any advice?

If you're comfortable with compiling CM yourself, you could include the mod in your ROM. Else, try some themes (I think Thyrus has a transparent bar, not 100% sure).
Also, if you want to try a ROM that includes this, Paranoid android and some CM based roms have this mod.

Oh no, they don't, it has a transparent notification background. Sorry.
You might be able to theme it using framework.apk or something, but I wouldn't know who to do that.
Good luck, sorry for the lack of help :-$

Here's a guide for that

Just as the title says, does anyone know any mod or guide to make those 2 transparent on Android 4.3(JS)?.
I have tried some here on Nexus 4 forums, but they always make bootloop for me.

Thanks for the answer, but I'm trying to get these particular mods for the ROM I already have, because 4.3 is not perfectly stable right now on 4.3 and these ROM's have many features I don't really need.

[Q] Is there a transparent nav bar zip file for cm10.2?

Hi all,
Is there a ready to flash zip file to make my nav bar transparent on cm10.2 nightlies? I saw some ways to change some codes and that's quite far fetched for me. Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks guys

I believe you can do that with Nova Launcher.

Install xposed framework & gravitybox module.

Navigation bar not working

Hi there, it looks like my bottom part of my nexus 4 touch is dead which makes the navigation bar unresponsive, however i was able to make it work with the help of xposed framework by increasing the height of navbar.
My question is can't i make modification in the rom itself and flash it and make it a parmanent fix so that everytime i factory reset rom i dont have to use xposed framework? Because uninstalling the gravitybox app reverts the changes i made to navbar. If this is possible please let me know the procedure for the same.
Thanks

You could install a ROM that has this option incorporated in it, like Chroma, for example. There are more such ROMs in the development section.

Well, another solution would be to decompile framework-res.apk and change the DPI from there. But, as I don't know much about coding, I can't really help you with this...

I just posted this question.
