Hello. Does anyone know how to resize the wallpaper ? I installed gravity box to remove softkeys, but the wallpaper act as if the button bar was still there. Can I resize the wallpaper in order to cover even that black bar on the bottom? Thank you

Hi,
If you're using a Nexus 5, try this:
1. Delete all the themes (/sdcard/MyColorScreen/Themer/ThemeCache).
2. Use Expanded Desktop mode.
3. Reapply the theme.
It should fit the wallpaper correctly, however we don't advise always having your soft keys hidden as Themer (as well as the themes themselves) work best on stock display settings.
Thank you for your fast answer, i've done as you adviced but the issue persists

How are you using the Expanded Desktop mode? Does applying new themes give you the same issue?
I've been using Themer with Expanded Desktop mode for a day now, using a few themes, and I've encountered no issues. Try various ways of using ED and one of them should work out

I'm using gravity box with extended desktop mode.
With the other themes the black bar is smaller but it's still there as you can see from the screenshots

Maybe uninstall Themer - delete the /sdcard/MyColorScreen/ folder - then reinstall.
As mentioned, Themer is designed to work best on a stock layout, therefore getting it to work with adjusted display settings isn't recommended. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Requires Xposed Framework by rovo89. Special thanks to him!
Change the style of status and navigation bar when in “Translucent mode”!
You don't have to be bind to the KitKat gradient if you are on a AOSP ROM, and also you don't have to be bind to any ROM manufacturer's implementation of it!
As long as the implementation is close to the AOSP version, this module can easily replace it to one of the 11 styles available in this module (maybe there are coming more in the next time).
The currently available styles are:
KitKat gradient
Customizable gradient
Full transparency
Android “L” style (a solid, a bit darker colour)
Sense 6 style (like Android “L”, a bit lighter)
Customizable solid color
HTC Sense 5 Style
“CarBlend” style (use only with darker backgrounds, otherwise it's hard to see the icons)
“Halo” and “Bracket” gradient (gradient with curvature)
“Cutter” style
Sony Xperia style
Please, feel free to tell me if you have any suggestions which styles I should add.
Download from Xposed Repository:
http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.woalk.apps.xposed.translucentstyle
This module does nothing but exchanging the overlay for translucent system bars.
Read the thread a bit, and you will find many people thinking other things, and you will find the solution for it faster than you think, if you think this is a bug or something.
Without saying you should understand that this only works on KitKat (4.4+), and that the translucent mode has to be enabled to see the changes.
If it does not work with your ROM:
Please post a link to the ROM you're using. It should be a ZIP file (or any other typical compressed file like Tarball, RAR, ...) I can investigate.
If there is none, consider uploading or linking to your SystemUI.apk and every *.apk file in your /system/framework directory.
Then I'll look into it and check if it is possible to expand the implementation of this module to your ROM's SystemUI.
Should work with the following ROMs:
All near-AOSP-based ROMs (CyanogenMod, Google Editions, ...)
HTC One M7 4.4+ and M8 Stock-based ROMs
LG G3 Stock-based ROMs
Samsung TouchWiz-based 4.4+ ROMs
Sony Xperia 5.x ROMs
Known bug:
Xperia style on xxhdpi devices.
Works perfectly fine together with Tinted Translucent Status Bar, making TTSB's design changes way more unique!
Have fun with it.

Disabling high-end graphics is wrong, I think, then after that every translucency is also deactivated...
Does it automatically detect status bar colours?
Great idea, But how this module works? I selected android L style, but in the apps the statusbar is always black...

OK, I got it ..
but status bar only transparent on launcher, on apps it goes black again ..
about the android L, could you added colour gradient so the status bar change to a slightly darker gradient from apps action bar ?
or this module only aimed at translucency ?

Don't confuse, this is not the functionality of this module.
What you're looking for is Tinted Translucent Status Bar which I linked in the OP.

First paragraph: If you want this, check my other module TTSB (link in the OP or in my signature), there you can enable it on apps also.
Or check the module "Force Translucent KitKat".
Both can be combined with Translucent Style module.
Second paragraph, first question: select "KitKat lighter gradient", or am I misunderstanding something?
@Woalk this module is working with ttsb but doesn't with tsb, can you fix it?

No. TSB overwrites any usual system settings of system bars, which Translucent Style also is (TSB's source code calls it "fake gradient" what its drawing when the window is translucent - it's not the default implementation). That's why I don't like TSB.
I'm sorry.

I also did that before I had enough experience to code it myself.
And it would be very nice to have a TouchWiz user here, so maybe I can expand the "working with" section. Please tell me your experience and provide a SystemUI.apk if it does not work for now.
Marvellous - thank you very much
Solved my problem of having a gradient which i couldn't get rid of.
Thank you
Works wonderfully on LG G2 with G3 rom

Hi Guys,
Apologies beforehand but to fully complete this look - you'll need Nova Launcher Prime. You can achieve most of it with the free version though! And around 10 minutes free time
The Icon set i'm using is ClickUI feel free to replace with any others (I love the set though!)
Also install the Android L Keyoard and set theme to Material
Firstly Alter your Apps launcher to the Pure White option. Long press and choose Edit - then click the icon to get the icon Picker.

Set Scroll Effect to 'None'
Set Label Colour to White
Untick Label Shadows

Set all Animation speeds to 'Stock'
Set App Animation to 'Slide Up'
Set Background to White (With no Transparancy)

Setup as follows :-

Corner Radius - 7
Feel free to play with the colours and see what you like best, but this is how they look :-
Enjoy! Let me know what you think!
Cheers
Paul
Nice guide that you put up for people who cannot wait for 5.0 and prefer using Nova.
:good:
I tried Google Now launcher but reverted back to Touchwiz because i could not use S-Note widgets with it. Are all widgets available with Nova?
Looks really good, i had it setup really close to this, some off your stuff makes it look even better, thank you.

You can actually use Floatify to add lockscreen notifications similar to the ones in Lollipop.
For thoose of you who cannot wait for Lollipop and wants to use the lollipop theme without any struggle please flash the latest X-note rom. You can easily just change theme with Xnote controll app and there you go you have lollipop on your device with just a click. And it´s running smooth as butter just lovely. Thats why i love x-note, there is also alot of other themes to choose from. Question is if the x-note rom is avaible for all note 4 models.
Anyways im running the lollipop theme and will also do a x-note rom review as doing videos about android, rom reviews, game reviews, guides etc is my passion you can follow me on youtube ( the android dewd reviews ) stay tuned because a x-note rom review with the beautiful tw theme chooser they added you will be amazed how easily you can switch themes without nova or any other launcher and run lollipop if thats what you like.
Kind regards!
The android dewd reviews.

Sorry, no, the s-planner widget doesn't work which is sad as I really need it.
Could you please share the nova.backup file, so it would be easy for anyone to use that, after setting the icons to lollipop, so others can simply import the whole setup. Its just for folks who keep changing there look. Just my 2 cents !!
POCO Launcher is surprisingly simple and elegant — at least, for Xiaomi. It might look simple, but it packs in plenty of options, including things as detailed as different transition animations, sort of like Nova Launcher. The app drawer is accessible via a convenient and typical upward swipe, and apps are organized by type into categories like communication and entertainment.
The setup process is straightforward, and there are a surprising number of individual settings to explore, though it doesn't hold a candle to things like Nova Launcher when it comes to sheer customization options. Presumably, it's also in active development, so we should see more features landing soon.
Unfortunately, we can't download it over on the Play Store since the beta program registration is currently full. However, we can download it from APK Mirror .

I would like to see a dark theme in it... But all of MIUI has light theme..
I would have loved to see an option to resize the icons, did not find it through the setting so far, wonder if it is available yet.

It depends on the theme that you have installed in your MIUI-powered phone. For example "Geometry Black" that I have in my Mi5 is dark everywhere. In general, the default themes that xiaomi phone have are light-themed.
I don't know what is the similar theme for Poco and if this theme is compatible with it as I don't have it yet.

geometry black is available in themes and it tuns background o black for settings and all. The app drawer still stays white tough, which defeats its purpose. It more for MIUI & not optimised for "MIUI for POCO"
Just moved to Nova for a two reasons:
*no option to set grid sizes ( desktop and app drawer).
*Nova teslaUnread add on solves (at least temporary) lack of notification problem in notification bar.
*ability to change color/transparency of app drawer background.

By this do u mean the unread count badge on home page icons or does Nova give u notification in the status bar.
Even Poco gives unread badge just not the counts.

Yes, I meant badges and sadly is doesn't work properly for some apps. maybe I missed this option on poco launcher. But still grid adjustment is nesasary.
Yeah, it's great, but I would like to have 4 icons in a row with bigger icons, such as in iOS.
Also, some kind of live or scrollable wallpapers support would be nice.
Individual change of icons such as in Nova Launcher, too.

It's basically the same miui launcher with the added app drawer
its there a way to change the navigation bar color scheme, for some reason on dark apps the navigation bar below its all white its horrible
Something funny i noticed with Poco launcher.
Locking homescreen layout should mean no icon/widget can either be added to or removed from the homescreen.
But apparently, after you lock homescreen layout in settings, you can still add an app shortcut to the homescreen but you can't add a widget!
Just updated to latest Poco launcher,was the word on the header at the app drawer before?
No, it wasn't.
Did you update from PlayStore?
Post some impressions, please. Is it OK or is it buggy?
