Transparent navigation and status bars in all apps. - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all I've had my g2 for about 2 days now and I'm really loving it. The only thing I don't like about it is that I cannot get the status and navigation bars to be transparent in all apps. On my s4 I was able to get the status bar to be transparent all the time. Does anyone know how to make both the status and navigation bar transparent on the g2?

You don't. The apps have to specifically allow for transparencies. And only Android 4.4 has an official call method.
So it won't happen on stock.
Unofficially, root, install G2 Xposed, and check it out! This is what you need.

Transparent status bar.

I just got my s4. And restored my apps from titanium and now my status bar is not transparent but gray/black life the way it was on my note 2. How can I get this back. I really like the transparent look.

Are you using a launcher other the default touchwiz launcher? nova has the option for transparent status bar , but it is very buggy!

[Q] G2 on screen buttons

Hi I'm going to buy the g2 but i really don't like these nav buttons/on screen buttons. Is there a way to hide them while in apps for example they will still be there but i would be able to see trough them, fully invisible or something like swipe up. Thank you and sorry for my bad english
I'm on LG G2 D802 and as far as I know there is no possible way doing this unless rooting your device of course. Then you probobly could use the app "GMD Auto Hide Soft Keys".
How do you hide it with a rooted device?

Get the gmd auto hide app from the play store and install. It's a little wonky for me though. Sometimes it just stops working and I have to relaunch the program. Not a big deal, just a little annoying.
There's a mod/ROM you can flash with the smaller navbar, I haven't tried it yet.

Or...
after you successfully rooted your G2 and want to remove it entirely, you may try this:

Wanam xposed equivalent for g2

hi I just came from a Sprint Galaxy s4 Joyce sprint LG G 2. I really like it but I'm having trouble finding ways to customize it. With wanam xposed on the s4 you could change the colors of all the icons in the notification drawer and status bar. Is there a way to do that on the g2?

Novalauncher no longer showing transparent nav/status bar!

Hello fellow forum members, hope you can help me a little with this. I had my first G2 (sprint version, gsm unlocked) that I had to return to sprint for a tech issue and just yesterday got my replacement. Anyways, on my old G2 I used novalauncher because I like the stock android look and dont like to flash new roms on it. Well, on the old G2 when using novalauncher both the nav and status bar where fully transparent and I loved how the G2 looked that way. But now with the new G2 I always get a white nav bar and black status bar no matter what settings I use. Was there a change to novaluancher in the month that I didnt use it? do I need to do something else to enable the transparent bars? my device is rooted btw. Thanks for your assistance!
Anyone? Any input would be greatly appreciated

How did you set up the transparency in your old g2? What I know is you can't set transparency in nova with stock 4.2.2. You have to used xposed.

Well I don't remember exactly what I did, but what I'm sure is that I didn't install exposed or anything like that....

LG G2 vs980 icon themes gone after kitkat OTA?

My LG G2 vs980 doesn't have the option to change icon themes now that I'm on kitkat??? The home themes are still there but if I long press the icon then push the little paint brush the different icon theme doesn't come up when prompted? Installing kitkat based themes from the internet doesn't work either? Any body else having this problem?
