[Xposed Framework Modules] StephenMilone:
thanks for all the feedback everyone, just to outline some things i noticed

Fixed the xposed repo package name typo - should be good now

Making just the nav bar transparent results in the top part of the app still going under the status bar. But this is being worked on.

This translucent nav bar/status bar feature was never designed to work on apps that use an action bar! So when using this module on an app that uses it, you can't expect perfect results

I did discover a feature in android layouts called fitsSystemWindows - forcing that true may help. stay tuned.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Aashuk Mehta:
Staying tuned let me know if you need testers I know a few people who are willing to test xposed modules. I can test too but only if it won't kill ma phone
[Xposed Framework Modules] Primokorn:
Quick test with AirDroid and Google Now and it works well. Nice tool mate.
[Xposed Framework Modules] natezire71:
Any plans to post your source?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Paoliz:
Great work bro!!! Hope to see a great update in the future ;)

Hello,

Very interesting module. I use most apps in Immersive Mode though, would there be any way to enable the transparency (same as in launcher) in Immersive Mode? Would be very nice.

Regards,

Random
[Xposed Framework Modules] designori:
great!
[Xposed Framework Modules] midgarsormr:
Awesome. Action bars are the only bane. But it works well on mostly all other apps!
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Same here, I'm on CM 11 too. No error in log.

Screenshots in attachment...
[Xposed Framework Modules] StephenMilone:
All apps with action bars!! I said in post #1 and in another post on page 2 that apps with action bar will break. A possible fix using padding on the top of screen might help that, but I can't work on it until next week.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mont:
Good job. I was waiting for this module!

Very nice! It's just worth it for Google Now. Level also looks very nice.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Slorks:
Finally the greatest module I love it but I wish it worked like the immersive mode were the nav buttons or the status bar want interfere with apps navigation setup. Like Instagram for example I can't navigate or twitter can't post tweets and so on but its a great start none the less
[Xposed Framework Modules] Sujan Baruah:
Very useful

Definitely not meant for apps that follow traditional aosp looks. I mean having action bars on every screen and such.... But definitely a great module for apps like Opera Mini where the top end is mostly useless (or non interactive). Now I can keep status bar option on while enjoying full screen real estate. As for the apps that don't work.... I still have Expanded desktop mode :D
[Xposed Framework Modules] iTzGavin96:
This is awesome. Might make a video on youtube and link to you for being the awsome developer of finally adding a beautiful feature to kitkat. And of course to get this some recognition! :d
[Xposed Framework Modules] erapmicks:
Which one is better? Tinted status bar or this
[Xposed Framework Modules] Humanio:
They try to accomplish the same thing in different ways. Tinted Status bar lets you color the status bar to match the app you are using. So when you use say facebook, you can "tint" or color it blue to match the top of the app.

By contrast this app forces actual transparency which also adds tiny bit of extra real estate for the app to use which doesn't work well with every app.

I'd say try them both and see which you like best. They both work well and this module has a lot of potential despite its early stages.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Suhas_v:
Perfect Soln

I think the solution is having tinted status bar with transculent nav bar.. That would be the ideal setup.. Beautiful to look at.. like in Pushbullet..
[Xposed Framework Modules] sam razzy:
I really love this modules.. Nowadays there are many hacks.. I think for the Navbar hack you must try the other modules tricks.
[Xposed Framework Modules] hugodefcon:
Is there any way to just jave the nav bar be translucent?

Or is this feature in the works?
[Xposed Framework Modules] creativeusernamea:
I really like this! I made a quick spreadsheet for my apps when I was deciding what ones to enable it for that shows whether it worked or not, which I've attached so you can get an idea for what ones worked. Someone may want to make it into a Google Doc like the Tinted Status Bar guys have, but I made this for myself so I didn't think of that at the time and can't be bothered any more ;)

I should probably also say this is what I found on my LG Optimus 4X HD, which doesn't have software buttons so I didn't test them.

[Xposed Framework Modules] RadarNyan:
Awesome!

Quick test, Google Now works perfectly.

Timely - can't say it worked perfectly but looks really nice, but then I found a little problem: The top of the app screenshot in Recent Apps view is cut of by the height of statusbar. It won't be a problem for Apps already designed to work with Translucent API (eg, Google Now just only enable it's translucent mode inside Google Now Launcher) but for the apps not design for that could be a problem, not a big one though.

I would definitely stay tuned for further information about top padding, this mod could be way better than Tint Statusbar - of course fot KitKat device only.
[Xposed Framework Modules] FcoEnrique:
That looks exactly like the bug with the module!
[Xposed Framework Modules] StephenMilone:
had some time to work on it this morning. would like a tester or two before i make public. PM me.

changes include

- selecting if you want nav bar, status bar or both

- option to pad the top or bottom of the apps view (for those apps that stuff goes under the system bars)

- no more reboot for changes to take effect, but you will need to kill your app you edited
[Xposed Framework Modules] krackers:
Any luck in finding a way o disable transparency in selected apps?
[Xposed Framework Modules] StephenMilone:
haven't looked into it yet. but will!
[Xposed Framework Modules] natezire71:
Plans to post source? It's an Xposed module--and I would like to install it only after inspecting the source.
[Xposed Framework Modules] StephenMilone:
yes, probably in a few days. I want to make it as air tight as I can until then.
[Xposed Framework Modules] SupaKid:
Cool mod!

Is there a way to reproduce this effect on the Navbar and Status Bar? Like this:
[Xposed Framework Modules] Simonna:
+1 it's would be great if OP would add option for transparency: to choose for making it more opaque or transparent.:good:
[Xposed Framework Modules] Ajith Prabhu:
Can u make the navigation bar black when using Google keyboard ?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Ajith Prabhu:
This is how it comes for me ! And any idea why none of the apps are programming to use this feature?
[Xposed Framework Modules] ahmedelhofy:
Very buggy on CM11. Hope it can get fixed
[Xposed Framework Modules] StephenMilone:
for the upteenth time, apps with action bars will force the upper part of the screen to go under the action bar.

However that can now be altered in version 2. Check the first post, i'm uploading it now.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Aashuk Mehta:
Great work dev
[Xposed Framework Modules] Random Username:
V2 works great so far. The only annoying part is counting the pixels for the padding. Maybe it would help if we post the numbers here :D

I got a 720p screen and 140 for the top (incl. actionbar) and 96 for the bottom.
[Xposed Framework Modules] patou75:
I see no option for v2 (choose SB or navbar or both) where can I choose it? Thanks for this great module !

Just have the nav bar be transparent, and then have Tinted StatusBar to change the color of the status bar. :0

V2 works very well on CM 11, thank a lot!

Just noticed a bug with Google Search/Now (it's ok in settings but no in search screen).

+1 I've a feature request related with it, there is a way allow to extend the color of title bar to status and nav bars as on this app?

Thanks again!

Edit: After further testing I noticed that it does not work well on some applications (see screenshots below).

thank you, i was looking for a mod like this for ages
[Xposed Framework Modules] Slorks:
V2 works great but it would be sweeter if even when we add buffer it would be translucent going through it. For example on google now if I add buffer on the bottom when I scroll the bottom navigation bar is gradient white instead of translucent.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Soe Min Thu:
Would really be great if the mod works together well with tinted status bar mod.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Thanaya:
This is exactly the module I have been looking for since kitkat came out! Great work dev, kudos! I have attached screenshots of me using root explorer and xda app (i use a custom framework holo background) and as you can see, they work great! :thumbup:

+1 for this great ideas. It would be great if the statuabar could take the colour of the actionbar (like in the xda app for example). And also if the contents can scroll through the nav bar even after selecting bottom padding. :D Just a humble request though dev, it's up to you of course.

I have a bug report as well.. When the translucent bars are applied to any app, the app screen doesn't 'move up' when typing, so that we can't see where and what we are typing (look at the 3rd screenshot). It happens in any app that requires typing, such as the messaging app. Is it possible to fix this?

Keep up the great work!

action bar problem

problem with what's app and other apps with action bar...tried top bottom padding
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Hi, enter 110 as value in top padding and restart your app...it's not better?

Edit: depending of your device resolution so it's more or less 110...
[Xposed Framework Modules] Random Username:
That is how it's supposed to work. You'll have to add padding if you want nothing behind the statusbar... Please read before you post!
[Xposed Framework Modules] noidtrue:
Facebook Padding shows weird white

First, thanks for the dev. you are Awesome!!!

When I use V2, I changed the padding of Facebook to 50, and I see the Navbar comes with weird white and some words there. Please see the picture here :

Am I missing any setting there?
[Xposed Framework Modules] nman17:
Hey dev, great job on this!

But do add a settings and preference backup for this. It'd be a shame to change the padding values and translucency preferences of 40+ apps again after a ROM change.

Thanks in advance!
[Xposed Framework Modules] chelsea_fc:
We need global settings for padding and navbar or statusbar selection...
[Xposed Framework Modules] yochananmarqos:
Global settings would hinder more than it would help. Not every app is the same & devices have different resolutions.
[Xposed Framework Modules] slater_g:
Did anybody test this app together with "Tinted Status Bar"?

Someone in this thread suggested to use this for translucent navbar and TSB for the colored status bar. However, there was no report on this acutally working.
[Xposed Framework Modules] StephenMilone:
for v3 the to do list is currently:

a way to globally change the config (unsure how yet)

a way to save/restore settings

anything else?
[Xposed Framework Modules] DHM47:
Maybe you can look at MohammadAG's Tinted status bar .it has a default value setting.

And maybe show the user the height of the action bar and status by converting 25dp(status bar) and 48dp (action bar and nav bar ) to pixels.

Edit : is it possible to make the padding transparent . Because its now push's the content making for an empty background .which beats the purpose.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Buggster:
Your going to have to play with it a bit. Some work, some with some tinkering some don't.

Problem is that this app doesn't take the color from TSB at this time.

For instance, facebook is blue, if you add padding then TSB makes it gray.(at least on my config)

All in all an sweet addition. But some options would be great.
[Xposed Framework Modules] DHM47:
Yes it works but you have to disable "Respect KitKat APIs" in TSB setting
[Xposed Framework Modules] Buggster:
Doesn't seem to work with my configuration. It just makes the status bar black. But I have UDN running..?

edit: sorry, I mean not transparent. White on black.
[Xposed Framework Modules] DHM47:
I think you have top padding .

The padding makes an empty space which the app can't draw on. The best use case if an app has an action bar is just making the Nav bar translucent.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Buggster:
Don't mind me saying, but it does seem to need many permissions...
[Xposed Framework Modules] Random Username:
Umm... wrong thread???
[Xposed Framework Modules] StephenMilone:
yeah what? no permissions needed
[Xposed Framework Modules] Buggster:
I also thought none where needed, but XPrivaty alerted some items.

Anyway, it was an question. That's what there for.
[Xposed Framework Modules] slater_g:
I tested it now and I have to leave this setting enabled in TSB. In addition, Top-Padding might be necessary for many apps:

Example configuration:

- PlayStore: Top 144

- Chrome: Top 48

Looks slick
[Xposed Framework Modules] jcmaddox1:
What would be great is if there's not more scrolling, the navbar would either show the background of the app and allow stuff to be above it or it would turn black when you hit the bottom. Instead of having stuff behind it.
[Xposed Framework Modules] jcmaddox1:
EDIT: I managed to get an example by quickly taking a screenshot as the play store was loading
[Xposed Framework Modules] Slorks:
Translucent paddings instead of gradient white ones. That would be perfect
[Xposed Framework Modules] StephenMilone:
version 3 uploaded. No actual xposed changes, alot of UI functions were added. please see the first post.

the permission write external storage was added for the import/export function.

One issue I would like to report

I have transparent nav bar enabled on some apps like gplus and tapatalk. I noticed that when I type anything in the bottom quick reply box the box should scale itself above keyboard so that I can see that what I'm typing. It isn't scaling

Try replying on a gplus post and you'll understand what I'm talking about

[Xposed Framework Modules] japmeet:
THANK YOU!!

I posted a request for this module in the suggestions thread but my suggestion was shot down. Someone said that app devs must enable the translucent status/nav bar from within their code and what not.

I was thinking about this earlier today and I was wondering that we COULD have a function that just overrides all apps' status/nav bars translucency settings and just set them to be enabled or disabled according to the user's choice.

Anyhow, thank you ! I will test it out as soon as I get home !
[Xposed Framework Modules] StephenMilone:
i saw this happen to me too with gmail and i tried on google plus like you said. I'll have to look into hooking into when the keyboard is shown to turn off the changes this mod makes.
[Xposed Framework Modules] android addicts:
I already added padding, but after that translucent not working for that app.
[Xposed Framework Modules] xdp:
Thank you for this mod! I've been wanting exactly this for awhile, to use e.g. in Chrome and Newsstand. I'm also waiting on the source though, so can't wait till you post it! Thanks for your hard work.
[Xposed Framework Modules] RusherDude:
Really nidea idea for a module!

Too bad it gets wrecked with Action Bars (Padding is not the solution, the app looks broken and the status bar doesn't seem transparent at all, there should be another solution that, if there's an action bar on the app, the app should start below it (like with padding), but instead of no content over it, it should have some content that permits transparency with the same colors from the action bar and content below it. Its hard to explain... but there needs to be static content over it).

Also there should be extra content at the bottom of the app with the same height that the navigation bar (because it looks cool when the content is behind the navigation bar, but when you reach the bottom of the app, its hard or even impossible to push the content below it. There should be dead space there (this should happen on every app).

Keep the good work!
[Xposed Framework Modules] Aashuk Mehta:
Its easy to say really really hard to do

I suppose
[Xposed Framework Modules] jorv976:
Great mod. I have it set to only transparent Nav barbut on some apps my status bar overlaps. Like on my web browser⬇
[Xposed Framework Modules] jorv976:
Also multi edit does not work for me. Maybe this will work on the next release. Keep it up Dev. This is a great mod!
[Xposed Framework Modules] jorv976:
OK..so I set the status bar padding to 100 and now it's perfect! ⬇Yay!
[Xposed Framework Modules] Aashuk Mehta:
Set it to 50 not 100 as you see you have a white bar
[Xposed Framework Modules] StephenMilone:
thats a known issue when turning on just one system bar to be translucent, the app still goes under the opaque one. nothing I can do about that besides the padding.

What doesn't work? I've been using it fine to get my settings just right across the board.
[Xposed Framework Modules] jorv976:
I figured it out. It works.
[Xposed Framework Modules] LGmarly:
This is a really great mod, thanks! :good:

The only thing is that in Hangouts with Nav bar set clear (padding set to zero),

I'm unable to see through it like I can with other apps.
[Xposed Framework Modules] SingChu:
suggestion

If Padding filling color like state bar will be better
[Xposed Framework Modules] tyraelasd:
One of the very best xposed modules out there.

Thanks a TON!
[Xposed Framework Modules] StephenMilone:
I did a few trial and error runs at trying to get the keyboard to trigger the mods to turn off, but nothing worked...and I don't see an need for any other big changes, so i commented up the source and have put it on github, link in the first post.

just note, I created this just as a proof of concept with zero intention of pushing it out. I really appreciate all the notice it has gotten (including XDA's front page) but at it's heart it's still just a proof a concept, and I saw a bunch of comments about specific apps being broken (Hangouts, Facebook, Google Plus) - I even noticed MLB At Bat is busted cause the padding, while needed for the action bar, ruins full screen videos. Those won't be worked on on my end...I'm onto my next Android project.

So please, any time this mod doesnt work as expected on a certain app... that should be things brought to that app's developer to update their code so this mod isn't needed as there clearly is a demand for this feature across the board.
[Xposed Framework Modules] oliver7:
Google Now/search is not a working app - if you enable it, it will overlap status bar when tapping reminders or settings. But I use this mod and it's a nice one (should be using the colors of the app instead of gray, tho.)

I had to disable it for g+, because photos is a part of g+, and that gray status bar isn't nice in photos.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mavasilisk:
Are you able to make navbar stay transparent with padding? Sometimes there is something at the bottom and a little padding is required which makes the navbar with solid color. Awesome mod! Been thinking for a while for something like this.
[Xposed Framework Modules] RusherDude:
Just wondering, couldn't be an option to do something like G2 xposed does? (expand the action bar color in padding and add the gradient over it, and do the inverse to the navigation bar with the same color added on the statusbar padding):

Examples:
[Xposed Framework Modules] TheHaso:
That's why we have tinted status bar to do that (the original), except the gradient

Sent from XDA 4 app using LG G2 D802
[Xposed Framework Modules] RusherDude:
Tinted only changes statusbar/notificationbar colors, doesn't let the content go below notification bar for example in the case we want.

Please don't link to another module when we're trying to better this one. TSB has been stuck for months and this module has way more potential right now.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Slorks:
This module is great much respect to the developer and those contributing. Keep it up this module is got serious potential. Great effort people.

[MENTION=2142147]StephenMilone[/MENTION] Have you had time to look into a method to disable transparency on chosen apps?

[Xposed Framework Modules] PunkOz:
Is there a way to get my status bar look like that on my Nexus 5? ?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Micoolef:
um, maybe I'm seeing things differently, but I dont see any content going behind the status or navbar. What you posted is exactly what Tinted Status Bar module does.

This module makes the navbar and status bar transparent.. And in your screen shots, there is no transparency.
[Xposed Framework Modules] asdfasdfvful:
Depending on padding, you can make stuff go behind the status bar. The difference between this and tinted status bar is that this one uses colors directly from the app, whereas tinted color changes it based on presets
[Xposed Framework Modules] SyCoREAPER:
Does not work well for me. I don't think this is just changing the transparency but also the scaling. Many items are cut off from the screen/hidden behind the status-bar and inaccessible even via scroll.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Aashuk Mehta:
You can manually scale them back to your liking using the "padding" :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] SyCoREAPER:
Teach me for not reading (someone right above me said the same thing). It's a little too hidden though.
[Xposed Framework Modules] RusherDude:
No. What I posted had statusbar with the same color than the action bar and gradient. TSB don't have gradients and doesn't auto-select the color.

Also this module can make bars transparent and flow content behind it, which TSB can't. And in my screenies, statusbar IS transparent, you're seeing the colors of the content behind, thats why there's gradient.
