Is there anyway to get a transparent status bar on the stock rom? i am rooted so thats not a problem
Xposed framework (? Google that) will allow you to have a transparent status bar.
transparent statusbar
Install cleanrom and then use this;

Download and install Xposed Framework: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
Then you need to download this module, which will show up inside of Xposed Framework: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1629653
There is an option for status bar colors, you can do whatever colors you want to or do transparency.
And after all that your status bar will look like crap when opening anything with a white background like the one you'll type on to reply to this .. lol

Hes right about this, it will look like ****. Its a transparent background, whatever background your app has your status bar will too.
I would do 50% transparency, that one looks fine.
EDIT: Another option. You can flash my theme say, "yes" to, "are you using clean rom?" Then select 100% or 50% transparency. You can skip the whole theme and just apply those mods, those mods will work just fine because its based on clean rom and he doesnt do heavy modifications. YOU MUST select a battery style though because I made it so all the mods contain 100% increment batteries. If you dont select a battery then your battery will disappear.

Concept of this thread to give choice to users, who want to stay on stock ROM but just want to add mod/theme according their own choice. May be this thread itself have all mods/themes already on theme section, but to make it centralize and select requires stuff under same roof

1.Add On - You can add stuff without affecting existing mods
A.Xposed base
B.Vrtheme

Since we'll most likely won't get KitKat on our device, I decided to edit the statusbar on the stock, deodexed, ICS rom that I use as a daily driver. A transparent statusbar, custom battery icons, a KitKat wallpaper and Nova launcher would be good enough for me.
So I followed this guide and succeeded in making the statusbar 100% transparent. Problem is that it also remaines transparent when the statusbar is pulled down and in certain apps. For example in Gmail the bar turns white so the icons in the statusbar can't be seen. In Maps it remains transparent so you'll see your icons twice and a bit overlapping.
When using apktool, does anyone know which lines need to be edited in what app to only make the statusbar transparent in home- and lockscreen?
Thanks in advance!
Xposed
Use Xposed framework and Xblast tools...why are you going hard way when there is easy one

Thanks for the tip, already tried achieving it with Xposed and Xblast but it doesn't seem to work. Most likely because I'm still in ICS. I know I know I should upgrade etc but I just like ICS better
Will dive into the SystemUI, Rosie and framework-res apk's a bit more to see if I can find how the statusbar background is set and with what actions.
Please do something like that .... I would love to try that on my DX
I have installed a ROM by Niaboc79 called the eXistenZ 1.3.5 ultra for the xperia s. Than i downloaded opensemc app and forced a navigation bar to show up which worked perfectly. Then i flash a zip file which makes the status bar and the navigation bar transparent which i need the most but after flashing that everything worked well but i have a small problem, everytime i go to task switcher i get no small apps bar all i get is the open apps in the recent apps column but no small apps bar. I got XPERIA S LT26i locked bootloader. Help me please!!!! this happens to other roms too.
Or can you atleast tell me how to make only the nav bar and status bar transparent on any systemui.apk?

I'm sorry to say that there is no fix for this in my opinion but the reason why it didn't work for me is because I wanted a systemui.apk which gave me transparent status bar and nav bar. To fix this I just kept the original systemui included in ROM and got gravity box which allowed me to change transparency levels of the status and nav bar and again sorry if I couldn't help

Its Okay..
I don't have transparent status bar and nav bar because i used kitkat (its already tranparent)... i used some xposed module too..
Thnks bro..
Try Xposed
instead of flashing a whole zip. try xposed framework to transparent ur statusbar. or u could make it even better then transparent with tinted status bar.
and the best part.. if something doesnt work u could just revert back to stock with a couple taps
hi guys. i tried it with Gravitybox but 5 second after it remove, it appears again. what should i do? any app or systemui modifimodification ?
Settings>Battery>Scroll down too "Percentage on status bar" move slide to disable
i think you don't have eyes to read the title
U Want to remove %. Thats the way u do it.
but.. nice insult.
r u kidding? it remove battery percentage not percent symbol
Ok my bad kid.
What version of Android are you running and do you have/ do you want to have Xposed installed?
official 6.0.1. xposed v80 by wanam is installed
That's a good start then chap. I'm sure there's a module called flat bar icons, or something like that, that allows you to change all the icons on the notification bar, I used to have it but never delved to deep into it. I think that allows you to lose the percentage sign.
yes flat style bar indicator is a good app tnx.
No worries man, hope it solves your dilema
this app is great. but still there is one thing that annoying me. stock statusbar icons' color automatically change from white to black when statusbar become white, but flat style don't have this feature.
so i'm looking for solution. also i'm thinking about editing systemui to remove percent sign and adding other feature to statusbar. Do you know any post or threat to helps me about it?
Guys Im using S5 Exynos stock MM rom. Look at the status bar. It is file manager, a fullscreen app which need to pull down to see the status bar. Some roms such as aosps have transparent status bar instead of black background. I want to know which file to edit to make it some transparent. I mean ~%10-%30 opacity like aosps have. Please guide me guys, brothers thanks in advanced
