transparent? not that i know. but you can use third party homescreen launchers to make it "invisible"
Transparant would be cooler though!

Not yet, but... I've pulled the framwork-res.apk and modified the backgroud to the task bar and have attached the results.
I haven't modified anything else in the bar, hence the icons for signal etc are still blue/black... but I will do.
The only problem with this is what colour do you have the text on the bar, as the background in apps also comes through
(I was thinking that instead of a fully see through bar, that I'd create an opaque one when I get home, as I only have paint on this PC)
EDIT: I was also looking to modify the lock screen to be slightly opaque, to match the bar at the top
Will post updates here once I've done them
Looking forward to the results!

I can remove the background to the icons, there is just a lot of them and I am at work, plus I have photoshop on my mac at home, and only MSpaint here.
I'll see what I can do for the glass effect, and was thinking of doing a few different see through colour variants (i.e. black, white, red etc)
As before, I think the main issue is going to be the text, but if there is a tint of colour, it should be easy enough to read (we'll see)
Hopefully I'll be able to put up a very beta version today or tomorrow, including the lock screen mods so you can see how it will look.
I'll put a new thread up when I have this beta bit done

I'm really looking forward to your transparent theme. I've been looking for one on my X10 for ages and I'm not skilled enough to do it myself.
Thanks in advance!

thnks a lot... looking forward for the release

To be honest, I'm not sure. I haven't used the Metamorph app, so will give it a go.
I've been using adb to test
Update Time!
Quick update, its a little trickier than I originally anticipated, but more or the status bar icons have been updated (I still have a lot to do yet)
So, I thought I'd show what I have done so far...
As you can see, some of the test is difficult to see in the bar, but this should be fixed once I've get a decent glass like effect on the bar. If you're using a dark background, this is fine, but lighter backgrounds are not so good.
Also, the text and debug mode icons are not done, and some of the battery and internet down/upload icons are also not done (100 and 80% for battery are complete, and the icons where 3g is enabled but not uploading or downloading are not done.)
Still, I think there is decent (ish) progress, and hope to get something you can use after the weekend (maybe before it's out, but I don't want to follow SE's example of giving crap release dates )
PS. Sorry for the quality of the attachment, I use screencast through my PC which doesn't scale down well but is quicker than using a screenshot app on Android

Right, almost there with the black transparent bar...
Take a look at the screenies
I'm in process of writing an installer, but its late, so I'm not finishing it now.
What I have now will be the first version, I will be changing the lock screen and other home screen bluenesses (like where I have Vodafone and ongoing, I will make them match the colour of the status bar)
I will also be adding a few more colours, preferably from the same installer, but we'll see how that goes.
Finally, I want to change the white background on the status dropdown to be the same as the status bar, eg, in this case, black and transparent.
looking good dude

Indeed, this is lookin great. I do really really like the looks of the status bar.
An idea, I know your still in very early stage atm but when you release it with your installer why not make it configurable? What I mean is so when your installing it asks you what bits you want in your choice of colours. So it would be customisable and everyone could have a version of some spec of colour that would suit any theme.
This would make a great paid app if you ask me...

Great work/concept so far!
I had thought about trying a translucent status bar background before. Can't wait to see it.
I'm trying to learn about theming a little too when I have time...
ccan u share the files... we could also work on it .. while u can compile the installer
Looks really sleek and sexy. Can't wait to see how this turns out.
BTW, very beautiful babe you have on your screen.
Hey guys. I looked everywhere for a modded black flip clock for the one x and have had no sucess. I don't want no rom or no clock someone made because all those that I have downloaded the weather doesn't work. I want the original htc sense clock that has been modded to have white numbers and a black background. Any suggestion sure are appreciated.

Not exactly sure what your asking for, but try changing your skin/theme (in the personalize app) or whatever from the default one to "Matte". From what I can remember it makes the flip clock a matte black.

Hi, just update my 1+1 to Lollipop age today.
Everything works good but looks weird!
Look, can someone tell me why my icons have this bright color frames on it?
Looks like rainbow on drugs on phone...
Any helps? I´m using Apex launcher but in default launcher looks same..
Menu look
Screen look
I suppose you're taking about CM12S, that's hexo theme icons that come by default, you can change theme in settings, themes, select the one on the right that is system, click on it once and two buttons will appear, press on the green one that says apply, there you go! Hope I helped.

The icons are built in within the theme. Change the theme and your icons also should be changed.
There are loads of themes for CM12 and you can chose which suits your taste.
Thank you, I changed theme to normal Android and now looks normal
Hi,
Do you also get a purple effect while on lock screen after pie update? And it goes back to normal only while unlocked ?
I'm thinking about reset the phone already...
That is an android pie feature.
It depends on the wallpaper main colour. Try to change it and you will see that it changes.

It's implemented by HTC, found a wallpaper that it doesn't happen.
I use the day/night automatic change wallpaper feature.
During the day, I have configured one with red and orange colours so the effect is red/pink.
During night I have configured one with blue and the effect is blue (light blue, in fact).
I think is quite cool this effect.
i don't get it can you show me a video of this effect

Try the following atachments "tech" as your lockscreen wallpaper and the other one(Harley Quinn) as your "desktop" wallpaper.
Then lock your phone... You'll see it get purple..
I still didn't switch to the P7P, I noticed yesterday that statusbar is dark like in older Android phones which is a deal breaker for me who like to enjoy landscape wallpapers.
Can you easily remove this dark tint?

I don't know where you saw that but my Pixel 7 Pro doesn't have a dark status bar. It is completely transparent?
Yeah no dark statusbar here Pixel 7 Pro

Why would you say something like that when the statusbar is not dark at all?

Maybe they saw someone using a different launcher and it had shadow on it.
The app "Nacho Notch" also sets the status bar black for those that don't like the camera cutout (Notch) in the wallpaper.
Nova will allow you to make the status bar black if you want.
