Hi all!
Aspiring dev looking for an answer to what should be a simple question.
I have a rom downloaded that uses an ADW MIUI theme. The original dev replaced the pull-down notification bar with a "glass" one.
All in all the theme looks nice, except for one issue...
The font color for the clock is black and the notification bar cuts off the area of the background wallpaper, making the notification area black as well, "hiding" the clock.
Is there something in framework that I can use to change this without making it overrule all the other fonts?
I really like this rom but the only thing I need to fix is the clock font color.
New Xposed Mod: Custom Status Bar Opacity
This tiny mod makes the opacity of the status bar (when it is transparent in lock screen or launcher) easily configurable from the mod's UI without reboot. Notice that it will not change anything if the status bar is not transparent at all (e.g. in apps).
=> This helped me getting white status bar icons better readable on bright launcher backgrounds but as well lets you make the status bar permanently solid or fully transparent.
Limitations
Works only on HTC stock-based ROMs version 4.0.3 and higher using Sense launcher (simply does nothing on other devices)
You MUST accept that you use any modification at your own risk
If you want to try it, follow these steps:
If not done yet or included in your custom ROM, install the Xposed framework as described in this thread (requires root)
Install the attached APK and activate the module in the Xposed installer (this is also described in the framework thread)
Reboot

It works indeed on stock sense launcher, but it doesn't do anything in adw launcher.
Is there any way to get it working with this launcher too?
Many thanks

I'm afraid not with version 1.0 or a quick solution based on it. I'm currently working on bringing this to Samsung's TouchWiz with a more generic approach, which makes it very likely to be working in ADW launcher as well. But this may take a while, so please stay tuned.
By any chance making this mod for Galaxy note 2?

Transparency on TouchWiz status bar works differently. This is HTC specific, since it covers the Sense-specific switch between transparency in launcher and no transparency in apps. Certainly, it could be done for TouchWiz with not that big effort, but has low prio for me currently. However, I have a device running TouchWiz, so make myself a note to look into it sometime.
Works great ! thank you !

Sweet! Looking forward to it!
If you add some kind of option for a solid black status bar this would literally be the perfect mod.

Did you try to tap the mod in Xposed installer, which opens the mod preferences, and to slide the opacity slider completely to the left (0%). This will make your status bar solid black.

It only makes it solid black on the home screen and in the launcher, it reverts back to the gradient in apps.
It is working great and looks nice.
Thanks for your great mods

Have to look into it, can't promise. If it works same way, it will be easy to add
Great mod works perfectly... Would you be able to create one that disables the messaging app from notifying on delivery reports??? I want to have delivery reports on but the notification on the status bar gets so annoying!!
Not work on ARHD 10.2 with Dark Theme

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

how to revert back to original after applying vrtheme? or uninstalling vrtheme mod.
Vrthemes looks best...thanks Dr. K.

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!

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
Hi!
Im using Flatisco icon pack and ive applied it to my Holo launcher on my Motorola Atrix 4G running CM11 (4.4.4).
Obviously, Flatisco does not support all my apps so i change thier icons manually, but i noticed that the icons i applied manually are framed with some random ugly color that i dont want. ( Screenshot added, look at HiroMacro, 2Lines for clash...).
How can i make those icons like the other icons, without the color frame? (Ex. Root explorer, Greenify, SuperSu...)
Thank you and have a good day!
Edit: had to resize the photo in order to upload.
Any ideas?
