KitKat Transparent status bar? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a 4.4 ROM out there that has the transparent status bar enabled? I've tried on a couple ROMS a framework that was made for them that added it, but it would make my device go into a boot loop.

Nobody?

I think it should be able to enable this on any of the Kit Kat ROMs. In build.prop find the option that says something like ro.lowram=true and change it to false. After rebooting you should have the transparent status bar, but note that all of the other low ram tweaks will also be disabled.

Thank you! I've wanted this for a long time!

I found this on galaxy mini 2 forum
persist.sys.force_highendgfx
It enables the transparent status bar and lock screen widgets without losing the low memory enhancements
But i don't know where to ad it to work

You have to wait for them to be merged to the branch and a tick will appear somewhere in your settings.

Well, the wait is over actually. Today's build will have this option included. Though, as I hear it, we are encouraged NOT to activate it.

That's a solution but unfortunately that's not cutsomisable as we can found in ICS or JB custom roms.
As for me, I'm very interested with one navbar with search and power buttons, plus the possibility to change the bar height.

thx mister
there is no need to do so many changes in build.prop and what not. simply Install gravitybox in xposed framework(and ofcourse reboot your phone after enabling it). goto navigation bar tweaks, enable master settings. all other settings are pretty straightforward.
For aligning it, goto ''gravitybox ->navigation bar tweaks->custom settings'' and enable softkeys. play with these settings for a while till you end up with what you want, Bcoz i did .
And yes, before you ask, disabling hardware buttons is still not supported in gravitybox, so you'll have to do it the hard way. personally, i feel more is good.

It is not true, This is possible, but you have tu put some effort in it.. You have to find appropriate png related to alarm icon in status bar inside of systemui.apk or framework-res.apk. Probably you can find it in folder like XXHDPI-RES. Then you replaced it with empty png and voila. You have no icon even when alarm is on.

That's right. In settings, there is no such option. Sorry for my misunderstanding. I'm just suprized again and again that people ask such questions.
Probably some ROMs (like Cataclysm) have this option integrated.

Notification/Status Bar in Android 6

Is there a way to disable the annoying "feature" of transparent status bar? I've been searching for days and am only finding Xposed modules recommended or status bar replacement apps but I just want to disable the transparency, nothing else. Is there a way to do in Android V6 (Marshmallow) on Samsung Touchwiz?

No
it s default on android 6.0 system UI so you have use a 3rd party tool or app to disable it.
like nova launcher > setting > looks & feel > disable transparent notification bar
there is no setting in Android System itself

Damn, so much for Android being the OS of "options". Another IOS, here we come?
Is there any other app you are aware of instead of a full-blown launcher? Something simpler?

Got it. Did that, thanks man. Is there a way to disable the "expansion" of notifications by default? After I rooted, all notifications are showing expanded. It used to take a two-finger swipe down to expand each but now they just all show up like that by default. And I'm not even able to collapse them. They start collapsing when I do two-finger swipe up but go back to their expanded mode when let go.

No.
technically when there is expanded option for a notification so user may need to do something! >> it s useful
to collapse it two-finger swipe up should work just make sure put two finger correctly!

The two finger swipe looks like it's gonna happen with the notification starting to collapse as expected but then expands back when the fingers are released. It will not stay collapsed. And they are ALL expanded by default, even a silly screenshot notification and other notifications that didn't used to be expanded before I rooted but are now.

[MODS] Remove Carrier Labels and Precise Animation Scales

I recently read about the use of RRO theming for the s8, so I took some practice and made these.
I have 2 mods.
1. Hiding Carrier Labels System-Wide
This mod basically hides the carrier label (AT&T, Verizon, etc...) from the status bar on the lockscreen and in the notification center (bottom).
You can see in both attached photos there is no carrier in the top left status bar and bottom of notification center.
Apk here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8DTpyUdT0UAeDF5a1E2OE5XVkU
Any thoughts? I'm making more of these mods. Give me ideas ;P
2. More Precise Animation Scales In Developer Settings
See the attached photos for the available scales. I found 0.8x is the fastest while still looking quite nice :good:

Just flashed it about half an hour ago. One thing I noticed after enabling camera2api with buildprop is that the selfie camera doesn't work. Be it in Snapchat, Instagram, WhatsApp or even Gcam.it just flips back to the rear camera
Otherwise ROM seems rock solid and super smooth:laugh:
Edit: even after deleting the build prop and using the camera2api toggle from the settings it appears to be the same case except Gcam works
