I'm not sure why this happens, and therefore I'm posting this here.

So, notification bar and navigation bar get transparent when using home screen, for some reason. I'm not sure does Nova Launcher or some setting on AOKP do this. They revert back to black when using any app. It looks nice on lock screen, but not so nice on the home screen, as you can see from the screenshot.
I did search for this, but didn't find anything, so I thought that someone here could help me to disable it. :highfive:
I'm using AOKP, Nova Launcher and Franco Kernel.
I dont know how to turn it off, but for the ugliness on the homescreen, turn of shadows in apex settings>Homescreen

Thanks for this, but it really doesn't take away the problem :/ I would just wanna get solid theme.
I also noticed that if I put transparency to my application menu, it will show transparent bars too.

I'm sorry, then I can't help anymore. I don't own this device so I don't have enough experience. :/

The transparency is set by the rom. To change it just change the opacity in ROM Control for both the navigation and notification bars.
The transparency only really works in the launcher (home pages, lock screen and app drawer). Apps don't draw behind the navigation or notification bars (there's no background behind the bars) hence they only show as black. At least that's my understanding of how it works.
Edit: To disable transparency set the opacity to 100%.

Hmm, I couldn't find the right toggles from the settings, could you write the route to the right one? I tried multiple toggles but none seemed to work.. maybe they were just the wrong ones.
I noticed this when I went to aokp build 4. I found that setting the transparency setting to 50% matched the homescreen
Rom control -> General UI -> Transparency Settings
give that a go and see if it works

Thanks for this! Seems weird that 0 alpha means full transparency, and 255 alpha means no transparency at all. Normally in colours 255 is the lightest and 0 darkest. Anyhow, the problem is now solved :victory:

Upload and provide me your framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk :highfive:
Is there any way to modify the notification bar. Can I remove the toggles from the top of the bar? Is there any way to remove the brightness slider? Is there any way to change the colors used in the notification bar? Green on blue maybe the worse combinations of colours that Samsung could have chosen. Also is the any way to change the scale of the items in the bar? With a phone this size the icons really shouldn't as big as they are.
Well if you are rooted install the xposed framework found in this forums and then the wanam xposed from the play store it just made everything easier in order to edit you whole system, you just need some time to understand every setting

-settings>device>notification panel>brightness adjustment unchecked
-You can change the notification bar to be transparent of you install nova prime launcher.
-For rest it is doable if you are rooted and installed custom ROM.

Guys can any one help me out with this ?
in Stock ROM while we use Stock wallpaper the status bar is 100% transparent but when we use other wallpaper its 50% transparent
is there any mod or any solution that the status bar remains 100% transparent in all conditions ?
Try the Multi Photo option when setting wallpaper. Might work, that's what I use when using the Exposed module by Blackdino.
Thanks Devs. From my VZW G2.
i tried multi window adding three pictures, same result. 50% transparent
Can any one confirm me ? wether this is possible with G2 Xposed ? or any simple mod ?
Using Note3, and i want to make my statusbar transparent all the time.
So i searched, and what i found is that i need to decompile and change style.xml or androidmanifest.xml...
Is there any app or setting to apply transparent or fading statusbar on every app??
Thanks.

Try out tinted status bar from Xposed module.
You can configure status bar for each app, as well system wide.
