[MOD][XPOSED][4.4] Enable Translucent Decor

UgglyNoodle · Dec 9, 2013

Translucent status and navigation bars in KitKat were disabled for the Nexus 10. This module enables them back for any apps which use them. (This module does not enable translucent status or navigations bars for any other apps.)

There is no settings activity. This module just does one thing for now.

Requires a KitKat-based ROM with the Xposed framework installed.

Props to @rovo89 for the awesome Xposed framework!

You can grab it from its Xposed Module Repository page.

It would be great if it was made to work without spoofing a tablet (it can create issues with the correct representation of apps), so it would be great if a phone edition (say for nexus phones) of this great mod was to be released...

The mod should work for any device running KitKat. I thought that the Nexus 10 was the only KitKat device which didn't have translucency enabled, but please correct me if I'm wrong!

Sadly it didn't work to my CM11 tablet, maybe it is because it is classed as a "low ram device" by the OS, but there, (to my experience at least) this mod only works to N10, out of the box at least...

Yes it does! Works wonderfully. Also recommend Xposed GEL Settings to increase the column count (Google reduced it from 8 to 6 for some reason).

Thanks OP for this awesome module! Don't know why Google couldn't have done this.

What settings should the row be set at? I messed with it too much and now can't get it to look normal. Lol

Thanks for the heads up on the xposed repo. Its great.

I tried installing this yesterday and my home screen still doesn't have the translucent bars. The only time its translucent is when its on the lock screen?

You need to use a launcher that actually makes use of the transparency feature. Think of the launcher just like any other app - if it doesn't request transparency, the bars will still be black. The stock launcher doesn't do this. You can use Google Now Launcher on the Play Store, Nova, or Apex I believe and you'll get the transparent bars.

I set homescreen columns to 8 and icon size to 90 to get the right spacing everywhere.
