Hey. I have the latest paranoid android. I have also grown tired of the black bar at the bottom of my screen... I'm using tablet mode and I know you can make the navbar transparent, but I haven't seen it in PA.... I've tried searching quite a bit and really haven't found any solutions... Do you guys know of any? Also, I used to have CM10.1 and I loved the circle percentage for battery... Is there any where I can get that on PA? I already tried the kitchen but I just get errors for it.

The transparency question was recently (within the past 24 hours) addressed in the PA thread, IIRC. Battery percentage is on their to-do list after they hit the stable release milestone, but for now is a low priority. Looking through the new framework-res, battery indication is limited to only a handful of states, so it's not a simple matter of copying and pasting new .png images over. As an alternative though, you can use a theme such as Nexified, which has percent indication.
I'll have to see if I can find an answer about it.. Its supposed to be in hybrid settings but it's not there for me.

Hey. I have always wondered, why is it not possible when having transparent navbar in the apps? Just look at LG G2, its transparent in the camera and on the homescreen, so why isnt it possible? Or is it to hard to code?

I've seen it a few times in custom ROMs - Carbon I think? I remember crdroid used to have it as well, but not on purpose

Ahaa yea i have also seen it in chrome browser with paranoid, but as you say not on purpuse, more a bug.. But i think maybe the people that are more intrested in these codes and things and more experience than me should look in G2s framework and see what the can find Its transparent in the camera as you can see on pictures.
Slimbean and Odyssey have it, that's why I stick to them...I love that feature. It's my alternative to pie, trans navbar and hidden and trans sbar. I'm on Odyssey now and love it just as much as I did illusion on 4.2, illusion was also based on slim. I've attached a pic of my home screen, to give you an idea.

I had that feature once, don't remember the Rom but when I enabled it, it made it somewhat harder to navigate because very often the background is white or a very light color. Another option is to change the height of your nav bar in settings, other than that try PIE.
Fwiw, I prefer the lack of transparency on the nav bar in apps.

Okey. Yea i guess that feature is not ment to be working.
I have carbon now, but it hasnt the PIE, so i guess i have to go with the regular bar.
The reason is because most apps do not draw behind the status bar. So even if it is transparent. It will still show as black because there is nothing behind it.
That is why for those with the transparent notification it only works on the launcher, lock screen & a few apps.
On previous phones I have had some modifications include stretching apps out so that they are behind the status bar resulting in a transparent bar always working however I'm not sure I've seen any such mod for the nexus 4

There are many replacement dialers on the PlayStore. There's even one called KitKat dialer that gives you the KitKat basics. However, the best AOSP mimic I have found (I really don't like the KitKat dialer changes much) is ExDialer. There's a theme for it that matches the AOSP dialer very well, and it has quite a lot of customization options.
You'll not be able to entirely replace the Touchwiz Dialer without borking the system, so it's best not to try.

What carrier are you on? Jellybeans ROM have the dark with blue. Much better than the white.

For me, I find that the dark blue is difficult to read, given that it has a much lower contrast ratio to black, and when I consider the fact that blue pixels in the matrix burn out literally 10x faster than any the others and use more power while they are doing it, the desire for a blue accented theme vanishes entirely.

Unless themed, isn't the standard AOSP dialer blue and black? See if this post helps:

It is, unless themed, and I was just saying that I think it's a stupid choice from a design perspective, for all the reasons I mentioned above. I was actually encouraged by the move away from the blue highlighting in KitKat, but it seems that it's beginning to trickle back in.

Definitely agree, KitKat and White is much better. One of the first things I do is change the status bar to white. Jellybeans, has a KitKat UI, but, it doesn't change the dialer.

I had a Moto X Pure and was running a rooted version of the stock ROM..... I installed Layer's manager and the layer of my choice (Dark Stock) and it worked.
I tried this with my Axon 7, the Layers manager installed fine and ran, but I couldn't find any of my installed themes to apply? Is there a setting that needs changed in a ROM in order to be able to change the theme, or are we just not there yet?

First of all, Layers has been deprecated and Substratum has taken it's place. Although it does have legacy support for Layers still. And secondarily, (maybe a silly question, but I'm just going on the way you've worded your question) did you download the theme(s) you want to try from the play store? And then there's also a good chance, even though android now has (some) native support for RRO themeing, that some things like the ui and dialer etc will not themes as the commits are not there from ZTE.

I seen there was a new name with "Layer's" being secondary in some of the descriptions? A lot can change in a month, because I was using "Layer's" just last month on my Moto X Pure and had no idea it was going away.
Yes, I did download the theme I wanted from the PlayStore (Dark Stock).
I may try it again since I've done a few more things to it....And I realize that not everything is "theme-able", mainly looking for just a few things, like the notification cards in the pull down and my settings menu.
But the fact I was still using the Layers Manager was probably the issue. I just installed the Substratum manager and it worked, at least for the notification cards. The settings menu wasn't completely themed, so I un-theme'd it.
This is all I really wanted! My PlayStore is also themed, the rest is left alone.

The settings *DID theme, but they looked like cards with a white background and you could see around the edges and the gaps between "groups". It didn't look very good, so I un-themed the settings.
Phone didn't theme (didn't expect it to)
Contacts didn't theme (didn't expect it to)
Playstore did theme
Calculator did theme
I don't use Gmail, but I'm sure it would have
Nova did theme, but I've already got the search bar colored the way I want it, so I un-themed it too
I normally don't theme the calendar or Google Photos, because I've had issues with the apps after they update - so I leave them alone.
No, not familiar with TBO? Is that "Total Black Out" or "Team Black Out"? If so, I have seen those.....But I like the more dark gray, or dark gray-blue themes as opposed to total black.

That's great news. I'm thinking maybe with that, Nova Launcher and TBO theme able apps for Google I may just be able to live with the factory ui for a while until we can get something more aosp once I get mine. But this is nice to have more of an aosp flavor for now. BTW, have you tried installing Xposed for other personalized modification?

I normally don't do Xposed with a custom ROM, but Xposed is great at modding a stock ROM....So, yes I installed Xposed for just a couple small things (using GravityBox):
1) Round battery icon
2) Center clock
3) More music volume steps (30)
I also used emoji switcher and have "Emoji One" emoji's.

Oh man, this is pretty much all I need to get me by until some actual development starts up. That is if we ever get sources or AOSP type ports. Only thing I worry about with ports is full functionality of all the features this phone has and oft times battery life can take a hit due to lack of full optimization. Thank you.

From looking at the Substratum page, it seems like it has two modes -- one with root and one without. Is that accurate? It'd be nice to have themeability while still staying stock.
