Alright so, I loved AOKP ever since I had it on my captivate and AOKP has been out for the One X for a bit now. My Question is, is there anyway to relocate the Data indicator in the AOKP status bar to lets say where it normally is in like a sense rom for example and use the sense Data indicators?
I know changing them wouldnt be to big of a problem, its just the relocation of the icons.
as you probably know the transparent notification bar (used in Sense 4.0) is no longer there when you use a custom launcher / sense-less rom. i think it could be cool to get it back because it makes quite a difference in terms of looks. perhaps this thread might be helpful:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1523703
any help on how to get it going on One S the easy way or a flashable mod is appreciated.
Asking to see if it is possible for anybody out there to make at least the navigation bar transparent, maybe even the status bar, or have a really light transparent color in case of background image being the same color.. Or even adding an option too outline a different color of the software buttons themselves so that they can be seen on any background color.
By this I mean to have the transparency while browsing the web, and everything else, instead of just to look at my wallpaper which although I like it, makes no sense to me when the transparency goes away once I'm actually using the phone.
It would make things feel as if I really am using a nearly 5 inch screen.
Trying to get this for stock rooted, but I guess it always grows to make it over into other Roms once made for rooted, which is good.
I guess whoever agrees just add to this, or second it at least, and if this is at all possible staying on root, MAYBE someone good will actually do this.
But if not possible at all on stock root,, then I guess simply list a ROM closest to stock which is capable of it.
Why would you want it to be transparent when you are browsing the web? It would look very strange to see the background top and bottom while you are in your browser. I suppose you could do this if you wanted, I would suggest paranoid android and change the system ui, android os, launcher etc colors to transparent for the navigation part. I do not think PA is out yet for nexus 5 but that is the only route that I can think of.
Because I don't think it would look weird at all.. I think it would make me feel like I'm actually using a 5 inch screen.
I wish I could do it myself but I wouldn't even know where to start.
Here is an example of only the navigation bar without the black bar.
But also imagine the software buttons in whatever color and even an outline color so they wouldn't completely disappear with the white background.. Lol although I wouldn't even mind if they did as I already know where they are and never even look at them when using them.

PA only allows transparent navigation bar for the launcher. The status bar can be transparent for any app, though. You could do a transparent status bar with full screen + Pie to achieve the full screen transparency, but that of course gets rid of the nav bar completely.
And, as you mention, AOSPA isn't out yet for N5.

Your first solution with the outlines or whatever creates the same problem of covering up whatever you are doing, making it a frustrating full screen view that still requires scrolling to see the full content behind the nav buttons. Your second solution creates the major problem of accidentally hitting the nav buttons.
As I mentioned above, one solution for you is to go full screen + Pie. AOSPA isn't out, but CM has this feature, and there are apps that, with root, allow you to hide the nav bars and apps that enable Pie.
I use stock rooted and I use Ultimate Dynamic Navbar which allows this. Here is the link to the paid version which allows customization of the navbar such as transparency. The free version might also work for you because, although it is still a full black navbar, at least it hides away when not in use.

with "immersive mode" or whatever google calls it, hopefully apps will update to include this. this will automatically hide both notification and status bars until you do an swipe from the screen's edge.
and possibly, once custom ROMs become more....custom....they will have an always on "immersive mode" so even apps that weren't updated will still work. similar to expanded desktop, but a little easier to navigate around after it is toggled on.

thanks for the heads up. looks like this has pretty much everything i need in a ROM. I dont like the fact that the google dialer isn't there though (search function isn't working) but maybe i can get it on there.
I think having both transparent would look pretty good. You kinda get a sample of how it would be when you swipe to go to Google Now. It looks pretty slick in my opinion.

Immersive mode and transparent navbar are quite the opposite.
Transparent navbar is everywhere where scrolling content is displayed. It could be the default. I wonder if it is hard to achieve. The only web browsers that support is use the built-in webview, which is not great update wise.
Immersive mode is meant to lock the view in a single app. More for games, slideshows etc.
And the list doesn't grow. Is everyone only programming for Samsung, or does Google give the wrong example?
Hey guys so I just ordered an NVIDIA Shield with some leftover christmas money, and it's going to be here by tomorrow. I have a question though. I currently have a Kindle Fire 1st gen, running 5.0 Lollipop and what not, and one of the features that I really enjoy about the ROM is that, I don't believe it's Extended Desktop that does it(I'm too lazy to get my kindle right now), but there is an option somewhere within the ROM's settings that allows me to hide the navigation bar unless I swipe up from the bottom of the screen. Looking around on XDA, I see that the shield is really lacking in custom roms, as well as not having any custom rom for lollipop. So question is, does the shield's stock rom have the ability to hide the navigation bar? I'd really like to have the extra screen estate. Thanks!
There's a Full Screen option right in the settings. It works pretty much how you describe wanting it to work, too.
Looking for this too (hide Navy bar but not status bar) but now that you mentioned the full screen options works good, I tried it and its pretty good!!
Still, I'd prefer completely disabling the Nav bar or have it show like with full screen mode but have the status bar always on and use pie like LMT app to replace it. Tia for any help.
I was wondering If I could add touchwiz styled Notification area/quickssettings on my AOSP Stock ROM(4.2.2) Based on MT6572 (MediaTek).
Actually I don't like Google's quicksettings and want Touchwiz styled Notification Area as it's more convenient. I have used third party apps like Notification Toggle but I did not like it as it doesn't have swipe gesture and long pressing any icon won't take me to its settings e.g WiFi. Moreover, it doesn't have any resemblance to Touchwiz. I like Touchwiz UI in every aspect but can't afford to have a Samsung Phone :'( I use HK Theme Manager for theming my mobile as Touchwiz. Though it works like a charm but still my ROM lacks Touchwiz Quicksettings PANEL.
I looked around but didn't find anything helpful. I'm a noobie and haven't ever decompiled or edited any app. Just fond of flashing Custom ROMS which I do with perfection. I asked a developer the same question and he said that I should edit framework, but he didn't tell me what exactly to edit. I Strongly believe that any XDA member would definitely be helping me. As I haven't received any response from XDA's side in my last 2 threads, so I humbly request you guys to guide me about this topic. Would be highly grateful. Thanks in advance!

Why on earth would you post this in the Galaxy S7 board? lol no wonder no one has answered you.
I'll just tell you this since I'm here already...it is not possible. You may be able to find some app or theme that has some of the features you are looking for...but TouchWiz is proprietary and the notification and quick settings are baked into the entire touchwiz framework. You are oing to have to find a alternative option to get the features you want. What features or rather what about the TouchWiz notification do you like ? I am trying to think of things from my past galaxy devices and I can't think of anything the touchwiz shade can do that my shade in Cataclysm(nexus 5) can't. AOSP is so much sexier tan TouchWiz.
Also, why on earth would you want to replace AOSP quick settings with Touchiz...touchwiz is so ugly.
Actually I was unable to find New thread button on xda's homepage.
Well, I think it's possible because I flashed a touchwiz themed ROM and the developer themed AOSP ROM to look like Touchwiz. But it was buggy so, I flashed backup of my ROM.
And I love this thing about Touchwiz notification panel that all the toggles are on the same row and When we pull down status bar, at that moment we can see toggles. Unlike AOSP we don't have to click the button on the top right of the notification bar to move to quick settings.
Install cm12.1 on your device and install galaxy s6 theme
