NOVA launche top black gradient. this is how to remove it. - T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General

i finally found how to remove the annoying top black gradient from nova launcher. TW does not have it but if people prefer using nova launcher like i do, the black gradient becomes annoying in light home screen background.
NEEDS ROOT.
Below is how black gradient looks.
HOW TO REMOVE IT
1) XPOSED FRAMEWORK
2) DOWNLOAD "Tinted Translucent Status Bar"
3)After installation look for app "Translucen Style"
4)Where it says "Status Bar" select "FULL TRANSPARENT"
5)XPOSED will ask you to reboot , do so.
There you have it, full transparent without the annoying black gradient.

Or remove status bar. I think it makes it more simplistic

Yeah i used this option in nova launcher but is a pain having to hide the status bar to avoid this problem. i like having my status bar at all time without the need to hide it.

Not working for me. The same annoying black gradient. I followed the directions to a tee.

in translucen style
did you press "RESTART SYSTEM UI TO APPLY CHANGES" after selecting "full transparent"
THEN AFTER
DID YOU RECEIVED THE XPOSED FRAMEWORK PERMISSION AND REBOOT?

Yes I restarted system ui to apply the changes. I already had xposed installed, so didn't permission.

Don't understand... So we need the Tinted Translucent StatusBar Module? But we are going to use Translucent Style module right? We have to do something with Tinted Translucent StatusBar module too?
Tried with Translucent Style and it doesn't do anything after restarting... Instructions are not clear I think... So we need both modules or only one... Instructions mentioned 2 modules but only provided instructions for only one module.

The option in Nova doesn't work for you?

When u installed "tinted translucent statusbar" what it does is that it actually install an app name "translucent style". U make the changes from there. So is only 1 module

Works for me as well!

The following method worked for me:
Make sure the "Transparent Notification Bar" checkbox is checked in Nova Launcher (under Look and feel)
Install the "Translucent Style" mod in Xposed Installer(I installed beta version 2.3)
Activate module and Soft Reboot through Xposed Installer
In Translucent Style app, set Status Bar to Fully transparent and (here was the key for me) check the Try replacing the variable box.

Using Nox Icons without Apex, Nova, etc?

Anyone know how to apply icons from Nox Icons to the G2 without using a non-stock launcher? I prefer using the stock G2 launcher to keep "knock knock" but don't like the icons. I already tried changing the icons by long pressing the icon I want to change and selecting the Nox icon I want but it keeps saying "Failed to load image".

You can keep knock on/off with 3rd party launchers, you just need to double tap the status bar up top.
Yeah I know, but that's too hard to do one handed (or I'm just too lazy). I was hoping there's a way to find the icons using a file browser or maybe someone has the icons in a zip.

You can also download a program called Turn off screen, using nova, after you set up "turn off screen" go to activities under gestures in Nova, and set double tap as turn off screen. Also, if you have root, in the app section, someone has developed the regular launcher with pretty much all options you can think of.
Have fun.

[Q] Transparent status bar and soft keys on G2 CM10.2

Is there a way to get transparent soft keys and status bar on CM10.2? Also why is it every ROM I use GPS never works?
Not trying to be a douche, just wondering.
Don't know about the GPS but if you download Nova Launcher's Beta it allows transparent Nav and Status Bars.

Select devices only or 4.4 for it to work.
Try using Xposed Framework + GravityBox module. It worked for me.

Actually it won't even change the status bar color. As soon as I exit it goes back to black.

[Q] transparent notification bar on Nova launcher

Hi all,
I use Nova launcher on Ozcan Rom v4.0 on my i9500. I adore full transparent notification bar as I could achieve before Kitkat. I tried so far;
1- Nova launcher settings/Look and feel/transparent notification bar. That only result Kitkat style graded transparency.
2- Installed "Wanam Xposed" module, tried almost everything underneath numerous options but couldn't find the dedicated setting there.
3- Installed "Translucent style" module. It just gets semi transparent.
Any suggestions?

How do you achive that exactly?
It says sth about "busybox" when I apply the changes to translucent style, I even found and installed one busybox thing without a clue what it might work for. I remember it worked but when i shut the sview cover and open again it got back to semi transparent state.

No sview cover though but i got no problem just pure transparent. yeah you need to have busybox preinstalled . right now i using 4.3 rom so i can't access the module . there is one setting at the bottom i press then it achieve full transparent

Understand that if the wallpaper in white color, it is the same as the color with the status bar icon, I will prevent to choose some wallpaper like this.
Sorry that I don't have s-cover, don't know why your problem =)

I am rooted but I don't remember if you can enable it with a non rooted device.. You can find this setting in «Look and feel»
from the Nova Settings.

Home in Fullscreen

Hi
I need the Home-screen on my ZL in Full-mode (expanded?), maybe without Pagination Marker and extra Row for Icons.
Im using Pie from GravityBox, without Navbar.
I'm searching 2 day's (and night's) for an Alternative to this Fullscreen.apk
Now (Lolli, root, Recovery) it didn't work anymore on my 6503.
Any Idea's how realized it?
Thx

Bro you can try serajr's "Xperia™ Xposed (LP)"
The feature you asked is available as option in additional quick tiles option.
I guess this is not right place to ask questions.[emoji6]

:cyclops:
O.k - (not really easy to find)
System Ui/Enable Extra Tiles/"Navigation Bar" - pull down QuickSettings + insert the icon and enable.
:good:
5th Row:
Home Launcher/Desktop/Grid-Numbers of Rows/"5"
----GEM Xposed can delete the Page Dots.
Now it looks like this!
Hurra

Use app settings xposed module you can set the home launcher to be immersive so both the nav bar and status bar will only show when you swipe up or down

Yes, but only with "Space", and only when if i want use the navbar (i prefer transparent PIE; LMT).
You can use Xposed and install 3dot menu Mod for change nav = 0
