Notification bar_Transparent? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Simple question:
How do I get the notification bar transparent?
I have installed cm11 4.4.2 and i dont found a setting to get the bar transparent....
I installed some launcher but no one showed me a transparent notification bar.
Is there a solution or is the bar at the nexus s always black?

You have to first change "ro.config.low_ram=true" to "ro.config.low_ram=false" in build.prop.
Then you can try change to Transparent Notification Bar on your launcher (if it's supported, like in Nova). I haven't gotten this to work my self, but I'm on SlimKat, so it's possible that it works with cm11.
or you can install xposed framework:

and then install "Enable Translucent Decor" module:

This works great for me, with SlimKat anyways.

I think with CM11 if you change lowram to false and reboot it should automatically give you transparent status bar.

Status bar. You should be able to get transparent notification bar without changing the puild.prop.

Question: How to change statusbar color under apps & menu

Hi all,
just a question: i've seen that when opening any app the transparent status bar turns dark grey. i would try to modify it to get a fully black status bar (but always keeping the transparent status bar in the home screens). do you know what apk's and what png's I have to modify to get this?
thanks in advance

CM themes: white battery if using Tinted Status Bar

Hi guys..
I bought a few CM themes and 2 of them use coloured status bar icons. They work fine; but if I use the great Tinted Status Bar for Xposed the clock and the battery became white..
It's a great issue, to me, 'cause that white is really awful!
The themes developer says it's a CM-11 bug, but TSB just released a new version with a mod to make the battery working; this version is the 1.8.9.5, experimental version..
Does someone use themes and TSB together? The themes I'm having issue with are Slim UI and Kreatur UI, both by Screelincious (also know as Nikolai Prettner).
ATM the only real solution I found is to remove battery and clock from status bar.. [emoji21]
Thanks a lot for paying attention, see ya!

If I just checked Statusbar Iconcolors in GravityBox it worked for me. But for now I chose not to use TSB.
Hi @webpatrick
I tried with GravityBox too but without solving..
Can I ask you what your TSB version did you used and if you set some option for this module?
TSB itself has an option to manually set a color for the status bar tint and icons color.. Do you also change that or just GB option?
Thanks a lot..

I had the latest release of TSB (no beta), and I think I did not change any setting in TSB. In GB I just toggled the Statusbar IconColors and centered the clock.
Nope.. It doesn't work..

Ok, I looked at your themes, but I hadn't a theme with colored statusbar icons. But I had the problem of the white clock and battery.

I like too much HTC Themes and launcher so I use another one.
We will have to wait for the M10 so the htc xda modders find the png responsible for this brown tint, when you use a blank white wallpaper you can see how horrible are the tint on statusbar and navigation bar are, htc enlarged it to the first array of shortcuts so we can read the text with any wallpapers but it hides half the screen now

How did you get the Navbar Heights reduced? Is it an Xposed Module? Or another Mod?

Theming and tinting the status/nav bar

So bit of a problem. I am trying to use a theme (I've also tried xStana) to have a nav bar with colored icons. I've also tried mods to match the color of the status and nav bar to the app (flat style colored bars, tinted status bar, translucent style). The problem is, they seem to not play nice with each other. Any of the mods I've tried to tint the bars also make the color of the icons I've chosen not show up. Does anyone know of a combination that will work? Ideally one that won't force material icons on the status bar.
I'm using GravityBox [MM] and xstana and it is working fine. gravitybox has the nav bar color options.

I'm using the domokun bar from xstana. I tried the Gravitybox tinting option and it overwrites the brown of it. I'm also trying to find one that will actually match the navbar color to each app.
