You aren't using stock launcher. Transparency only works with stock launcher.

THANK YOU!

It works as advertised. Honestly I wish I could keep the constant sift keys and just shrink them down a little.

Where is this option ?
Sent from my LG-D800 using xda app-developers app
I tried this app out and didn't like that I had to have the recent apps button so I uninstalled it. Now my status bar is stuck at 50% transparency. Any fix other than build prop?

So this app replaces the menu button with a recent apps button?
I mentioned this in my root thread, when someone asked what I used to hide my soft keys lol. LMT is also another alternative.

LG Smartworld

I can't get the lg world app to work on the At&t variant of the G2. The only reason I want it is to download theme icons. Any ideas or work around? My model number seems to be the issue because I know of it works on the int'l version
Sent from my LG-D800 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
If you are rooted you can install Unicon from Play Store and then you'll have access to hundreds icon packs made for most popular launchers (Apex, Nova...). It works for stock LG Home launcher as well.
Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk 4
This is Nox icon pack. Btw, I've installed custom recovery as well. Not sure if it's necessary for Unicon to work properly. Hopefully someone will chime in with answer.

Please disregard my posts. Funny me. I thought that LG Smartworld is a theme. LOL

You can use Desktop VisualizeR to change your icons to any packs you want. No rooting required...download in the play store along with any packs you want. Super easy.

With root there are options in Wanam to do this. Screen stay off when small received. However it doesn't work with this device.

[Q] Swipe left gooogle now on any phone?

Got a question.
On the Nexus five you can swipe to the left to get google now to come up. Is there anyway that can be added to an s4?

I'll have to try that all I want to do is even swipe up and google now appears. I use Google now allot and its a pain to have to open the app would be good to just do a gesture and it opens.
I use Nova launcher and have set double tap on screen to be google now. Very handy.
This thread has the launcher you're looking and some other 4.4 goodies.

It's not nova that does the transparency it is the G2 xposed mods. It does a ton of customizations. Check it out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2528304 it works with a lot of launchers not just nova. (I have only tried the Google experience one and nova)

I was just going to post how did you get your notification bar too look like that. I realized that the lg one should still be intact even if you change the launcher. Good Job hopefully we can get some of that soon.

Same answer as above http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48129802&postcount=11 it is apart of the G2 Xposed mod. That thing is awesome! You can also add different items to the navigation bar. I added recent apps
I have never rooted a device before I don't trust myself to do it correctly
