Black Lockscreen Status Bar - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know the codes to get the lock screen status bar black instead of transparent?
I've been looking through the framework and I can't seem to figure out the bools.xml code.
It's frustrating me to death.

Questions should be in q&a, but I'll give you a start. It's in android.policy.jar..... keyguardviewmanager.smali

Haha that's funny, with my old phone I was doing everything I could to try to make my bar transparent, and when I got this phone I thought, yes, finally, and I don't need to tweak it for it to be transparent. Just goes to show you how much everyone really does like their own thing on these phones, good thing we have android.

You could try the Ultimate Online Theme Kitchen (Thread in android theming forum) - would involve taking your framwork-res.apk from your phone and uploading it and using the options to make the status bar matte or solid black.
Otherwise, maybe try a Sense-based rom, pick a skin that has the solid black status bar, then change over to your launcher of choice (or stay on Sense)
I have never used a sense-less rom, so I can't speak to that.

Tell me which version your running and I can make you an update zip that will give you the all black status bar. It just won't be for about 2 hours till I get to my PC.

[Q] Remove Google Now swipe from lockscreen

Using CM nightly (18th).
I have a pattern lock and removed the side widgets with Lockscreen Policy. Last thing to go would be the circular dots at the bottom that are part of the Google Now swipe.
On a separate note, is there a reason you can pull down the clock to expose a blank area underneath?
Sorry for poorly notated screenshot:

The space is for when you have multiple clocks for different time zones.
if u fill ur lock screen with widgets, u press that to bring up the unlock settings.
You could use an app like widgetlocker or go locker. They'd probably have the option to hide the google now circle.
I miss the simple ICS/ 4.1.2 lockscreen

I don't suppose anyone who has these apps can confirm this? I guess I'll try Go Locker, but the other one is a paid app...

WidgetLocker does one of two things. It either leaves the Home, Back, and Recents buttons there, or, if you enable root helper, it will replace those with the GNow Circle. No option for a black bar.

You could always make the Google now circle blend into the lock screen if you're using paranoidandroid like so.

In hybrid settings, set the launcher's nav bar color and transparency to match the lock screen color n transparency. It takes some tweaking to get the right color but you'll find it soon enough.
I'm using #55000000 but you may need to tweak it a bit depending on your wallpaper
Or you could take a screenshot of your lock screen, find the color code for it using the color picker in Photoshop and then enter that value in the launchers nav bar color picker.

Not sure I'm seeing what you're seeing. The dotted circle is still in your screenshot.
Yea but its not within a black bar. The wallpaper extends to the bottom. And its just one possible way to mask it and make it look nice since I'm not too interested in getting rid of it completely anyway.

Ya... I too want to remove that upward pointed triangle from the lock screen as it is giving me issues.. It is even present behind my Home button and disables its functionality even after unlocking the screen.
Somebody help please

[Q] Change the status bar icons

Im REALLY annoyed by that ugly ATT 4g icon, the inconsistent sizes, the information overload that fills the top of the screen basically. I just moved to android with this S4, previously I was a happy iPhone user. Is there any simple way to replace/theme the status bar icons? and for the love of god can I just turn them off without having to disable the services?
Im rooted, running Nova, I've tried obsidian menus bar, doesnt work and clearly would be a bandaid anyway.
Id rather not go trolling around in the systemui.apk, but if thats the only way and its safe to OTA afterwards then Ill do that. I just really hate the design of the status bar.

I'm like you. I very much prefer as minimalist a status bar as possible, so I made icons so my status bar looks like this with everything enabled:
Obviously, I never have all those icons active. Usually just the battery, signal, wifi, and alarm are active, but I enabled them all so you have an idea of what they look like. I posted all the icons in this thread if you'd like to use them:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2275858
Also, there's a mini tutorial about how to cluster the signal strength and signal type/in-out icons, because I think it's an absurd waste of space to use TWO icon spaces just to basically show you have cell phone signal and how strong it is.
Basically, I understand your pain. The clutter that comes with the stock status bar is absurd.

[Q] [QUESTION] Is there a way to move or re-arrange the statusbar elements???

As the title says, I'm looking for a way to move the statusbar elements, i wanna move the signal and WiFi icons to the left side (like on iOS), is there an xposed module or a tweak to achieve this???
Thanks in advance!!!
Hey can I just say it's kinda weird that this question is asked almost exactly the same way and verbiage on this thread.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2604483
Is there some weird trolling thing going on around the themes and apps section? Also I answered the question in that thread.

I think you have to decompile the system ui and edit it then push it back to system. There is a mod though for galaxy s4 that coverts the icons to ios style.

Theme

Snapdragon user here.I found an app if you used substratum previously (as it doesnt work anymore)Called Good Lock in Galaxy App Store,you can theme your galaxy with it and it's not too bad actually.
What is your Guys Opinion on this ? I think Its great that Samsung is letting us do customization

Part of the panel as a whole. Settings and other system apps are not themed.

I've had it since my Note 5 and it's really nice.
I have an issue though. When I make the notification tray transparent, and I pull it down, the zone of the notification bar is shown a little bit brighter. Do you guys know how to fix this?
Edit: Ignore the screenshot, it's cropped wrong
