REQUEST: Completely transparent Statusbar

i have seen many "glass" statusbar and other transparent ones, however, they are not fully transparent as they still have this rectangular shape to it at the top of the screen, also, the signal strength still has its own black background
would someone kindly make a morph that would enable a fully transparent status bar, with the icons found in desire notification bar?
and when a pull down is done, the bar turns black and the pull down background is also black transparent like the nextheme?

- fully transparent will make any white text unreadable when there is an app with a white background like the browser running.
- there are signal strength morphs with a transparent bg. check the morphs thread
you could just take the desire status bar morph and make the status bar background image transparent...

i thought of that, but i didnt find a morph that only applies transparency to my current status bar
try this one. As I said above there are serious limitations when its 100% trans.

this is exactly what i was looking for!
thank you!
i see what you mean with this limitations, i,e with the browser!
if only there is a way to make the status bar respond differently with apps with different backgrounds.

Can you compile a theme that is not 100% clear, but something like 90% -
Looks like the Glass Status Bar - i've tried downloading the Glass status bar a few times but it does not work for me on Cyanogen 5.0.6 - AT ALL.
one time it even crash my rom so bad i had to nand restore!
Thanks,
Guy.
You can try it with the newest metamorph version. cyanogen rom makes a bit troubles by patching the framework-res.
Stericson has made an option in his app, that allows us, to apply the morphs not too fast.
I don't know why, but on mcr roms its easier to make metamorphs.

When download your Glass Status Bar i got the error with
"he theme you selected is invalid because the theme control file could be missing.........." - i have the latest metamorph from market,
What am I doing wrong?
Then you have renamed the *.zip file I think. (Or it's renamed by your download manager)
The name of zip file AND the *xml file must be the same or you get the error.
Before applying the morph, press menu and choose a not so speedy value.

need help! framwork-res

Hi...
A question??
How i can change the background Color / from browser.apk ??
I have a transparent statusbar, and when i run the browser is the status bar white.
as the name of the browser background in the framwork-res is file?
thanks for reply
Greetings

i doubt that it is in framework-res.apk
check browser.apk and i don't think that it will be a .png. I am pretty sure its a .xml file you will have to edit.
that just looks like a bad status bar background PNG within the framework-res.apk.. (thats just for the dodgy lookin status background with the android pic) not sure about the very top bar thing
When ever you make status bar background transparent, not only browser other apps like market will make kind of ugly look on the notification bar.
This is because behind the transparent notification bar these items operates. since notification bar is transparent you will see it. for instance , if you have semi transparent black notification bar, you will see ugly gray outcome. that a side-effect..
Go and edit framework-res.apk / res/drawable-hdpi/statusbar_backgroundxxx.png
and make it solid.
Hope this is what you are looking for.............
I think the background for the status bar while in the browser is the web page you are viewing at the time.
So if you view a dark page it should look ok. Give your Google a dark theme and see..
You could do like Shiwantha said and make it solid or just make it less transparent and more opaque.

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

EMUI & material design

Is it possible to get the statusbar transparent in EMUI 3.1 Lollipop.
Some apps does have the same color bar as the app like Amaze file manager.
But in the Google apps we don't have a statusbar n the same colour as the app.
As you can see, when you pull down the notification bar you can see the full color.
Sorry for my english
