The buttons on my fascinate broke, So I was forced to add Virtual Buttons/ Soft-Keys o the prop.txt. But now I want to make the soft keys transparent like on the Moto X. Does anyone know how to do so. (Running CM 10.1 on Verizon Samsung Fascinate)
I attached a screen shot so you can see.

I believe you need a ROM that allows for transparency adjustment. cm10.1 builds don't have that setting, it'd be pretty difficult to get it working. switch to helly bean. helly bean is based off of cm10.1 so it's stable but it's really customizable, and navigation bar is toggled in system settings, not through build.prop so it's easy
also, as far as i understand, in that rom anyway, transparency goes for both the status bar and nav bar. if you're okay with transparent status bar (i think it looks cool) then you can change transparency settings in the same place.
but motorola's customization as you said, only makes the soft key background transparent. if you only want that, i'm not too sure how to help you.
@LGC_Gamma
Unless you run xposed i don't think you can.
+1 for a ROM with built in navbar soft keys.
They have adjustable transparency levels
A 2nd choice would be ultimate dynamic navbar
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mrbimc.udn.lite
I know it has it too.
Or "gmd auto hide soft keys"
Can't remember if this did or not,, less functional to me,, so i uninstalled fairly quickly
.
Thanks for that, I'll definitely check out both of them.

Which rom/device have you confirmed it working on?
Doesn't work on Nexus7 (2012) ROM:CM10.2.1
Edit: working now!!! But please add "navbar height in landscape" because on tablets navbar is still in stock dpi in landscape mode
Works on Omnirom 4.4.2 Huawei Ascend P6, atlough the statusbar size is a little buggy. Combined with App Settings it can be put into good use for resizing the statusbar.
Click "Apply" anything did not happen.
Excellent!!!
This might be of interest for at least a few.
This mod enables the navbar / softkeys on my Sprint Galaxy Note 2 running near stock TW rom (STS MK4). I have been searching for a mod that does this, as i've tried the manual editing of the CSC to disable the hw keys but never worked for me.
And I can shrink the navbar to 24 pts!

What are you trying to change

Not much success on my S4, either. The status bar never changed, and I got intermittent effects in some apps' title or action bar. Yes, I rebooted after each attempt. I'm looking forward to trying updated versions.
Things working/not working
Working: statusbar height, action bar height
Action bar title size is kinda working, it shows up when I open an app, but when it fully loads, text size is back to normal
Not working (and tested obviously): statusbar icon size (could it be an incompatibility with gravity box icons?), toast message distance from bottom
Also, loading previous settings causes fc, and ad cover the "Visit XDA thread" button.

Load previous settings only works if you had some, i'll look into it. And new update i just released has fixed issue with ad covering the buttons. Thanks for letting me now
Hi
Still testing
Cannot you made possible to view changes just after a systemui reboot (like xuimod)?

This module replaces the values of dimens.xml inside framework-res.apk. It requires a reboot in order to reload these settings. I'll look into XuiMod and see how they're doing it, i suspect they have some sort of background service like GravityBox

Nope, already did, and didn't helped.
Maybe you are not aware, but G2 notification bar has big height comparing to other phones, so maybe it is already moded somehow especially that LG G2 heavily themed comparing to usual phones.
P.S
I'm using the stock ROM with 4.2.2 android.

the thing I miss most from gravity box is the "hide error pattern" in the lockscreen
because when you did a mistake, it is very easy with the red pattern for someone else to find out your pattern
Anyone knows how to enable battery icon theming in PA's SystemUI? None of the Xposed modules seem to work

did you mean change icon..?
setting-battery-battery theme.. upper side of screen.. it should be there if that you mean..
Yup I know that. I meant custom icons using Xposed modules
The big features in PA are great, like Hover, Pie etc.
But there are so many "mall" features missing in 4.4.
Mainly customisation options like NavBar Buttons etc.
I would love to see those added to PA.
hi all,
i wanted to ask if there's an option/a way to chose the color/transparency of the navigation bar? because as it stands right now i sometimes get a bright white navigation bar on an app running in dark mode which is a bit annoying... my guess is, it has to do if the app plays nicely in fullscreen mode or not but maybe there's a way to force it?
thanks for reading!
edit: somehow i have problems attaching my screenshots... i hope it works now

Navbar apps is what you NEED
I have been using an app called Granular Immersive Mode that does not require root to hide the status bar on selected applications. You do need to grant permission through ADB but the instructions are fairly clear and straightforward. After the update today the app stopped working as it used to, it no longer hides the status bar, just changes color to black, I have tried other immersive mode apps and they are all working in the same fashion. This is a big bummer for me...be aware if you are running the update today and any tips or work arounds would be greatly appreciated.

I don't have this phone but Fluid NG gestures doesn't hide the navbar since android 11. I have to use a magisk module to get rid of the navbar.

LG put a backed-in option to hide the navbar now but there is no way to hide the status bar which bothers me the same.

It's because Google nuked overscan from Android with Android 11. Overscan is what allowed pretty much every third-party app in existence to "push" things like status bars and navigation bars offscreen. When asked about this, Google admitted that killing overscan is a feature, not a bug, so sadly, it's here to stay. It blows.
I loved FNG, but I've since had to revert to LG's gestures (which, to their credit, are WAY better and smoother than they were in Android 10, IMO). I can't root my phone, so it is what it is.
