with nova launcher

I believe Samsung updated to this new, not-fully transparent status bar a few firmwares ago.
You have 2 choices: use an older, dated firmware that still has the fully transparent status bar; or use a custom launcher (such as Nova Launcher) to achieve such transparency.

Have the I9505G with Kit Kat loaded. Rooted and have Xposed framework installed with Nova Launcher. But I don't have the option in Nova for transparent status bar. Only Show Notification Bar followed by Hide Clock.
How do I get Nova to enable transparency?

My guess is you need the paid for version of Nova. It shows up on my non rooted 4.3 mk2 phone, and is transparent.

Any way of getting transparent status bar back without using stock launcher?

That is the one thing I would like. I currently have NOVA launcher. I like it because you can theme the icons and such but now I have the black status bar and black navi bar as well. In the stock launcher there is an option to make them both transparent. What am I missing?

I'm wondering the same thing. I've gone back to LG's launcher for this reason. Hopefully the ROM gods will add this as an option to add on.
I was going to come post the same thing. I just applied auto-hide soft keys and was wondering if this was an option. Using Nova and I pinch to bring the status bar and knock on to sleep on the status bar as well.
Love this phone by the way - obligatory

[Q] Apex Beta 2.2 Transparent Bars

So I have installed the beta Apex launcher (2.2) on my G2 to get some transparency going that I have learned to love on my N7. But, after installing, I cannot find where to select the transparent status bar?
My N7's status bar was transparent automatically after the install.
Anyone have any luck with this on your G2 yet.

Try "Tinted status bar" on xposed installer. Its an xposed module and you can make the navigation bar and the status bar different colors OR transparent. [emoji1]
Isn't that a function came with 4.3?
Unfortunately Tinted Status Bar not function
I found a neat little trick to get transparent nav/status bars on pretty much any custom launcher. i use a theme that has gradient transparent nav/status bar. i use a theme called Pureness V4

I find the "flat style colored bars" to be significantly more functional as compared to "tinted status bar"

Notification Bar and Status Bar Icons

I have the AMZ version of the G4, which its not bootloader unlockable so is there a way to change the color of the notification bar from white to a different color? and how can you change the status bar icons?
Not unless you use another launcher or root.
Edit: You can use the accessibility settings to invert colors, but this changes the way the entire phone looks.

There's only one launcher that I know of that allows editing of the status bar and that's CleanUI, a IOS look alike. It was formally called Espier and isn't actually that bad, but when I tried it, I noticed more battery drain than Nova.
