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:

Hi ya'all
Is there a way i can change the ugly stock icons on the statusbar? I especially hate the "vibrate mode on" icon.
Would be nice if i could change to AOKP/CM10 icons.
My Note3 is rooted and Im using stock ROM. I have tried different things like Xposed Icons etc but its not working well....
Thanks!
Hi ..
Does anyone know is there is any way possible to change the colour scheme of the ugly notification icons (ie wifi toggle etc), same with quicksettings. Would kill for something that looked aosp style. or even just dark black etc backgrounds ..
Also.. any way to disable the Sfinder & Quick connect that appear in the notifications..

Oops accidentally thanked you... enjoy that
Are you rooted? If not then root is required to do the things you want.
Once rooted check out xposed + seraj's blur ui and wanam module.
Also someone has a thread confirming development of a blacked out ui and settings... Seek it out
Good luck

Flat Style Colored Bars is the best Xposed module for status bar color I've found.
Hi, I'm writing here, because Phoenix Rom thread seems to be dead... So I have lates phoenix ROM, and in Phoenix options I chose to hide some icons from status bar like IME switcher etc. But now status bar is not showing any icon, I dont see alarm icon, do not ditrubt etc. I dont even see text message icos, only standard ones like wifi and clock, It dosn't matter which options I wil check in phoenix settings. It seems like status bar just broke, Is there any way to fix it without reflashing ROM again? I just did it, because of some other bug, I restore my apps set everything up, and I don't wan to do this again
I don't like the status bar icons on my Galaxy Note 3 (SM-900), and would like to have the icons as in iPhones. I've tried apps like iNoty, but it has changed the entire status bar to iOS style thus not letting me access to the Quick Toggles when I pull down the notification bar.
I would just like to change the battery, network and WiFi icons and keep everything else same on the status bar. Kindly help me with this. Thanks!
On a side note, is there a way to reduce the font size of the time that's shown in the status bar? That thing is too huge and inconsistent with the rest of the icons.

every mod you need is on AryaMod ROM. there are Lollipop, Stock and iOS status bars as well (but not for the latest 7.4 version I guess)
also there's an Xposed module named Flat Style Indicators I guess (not 100% sure of the name) which can give iOS status bar....
