Jackstraw, this looks exactly like the final piece that will make my Nexus complete! You are, as they say, the man!!!

Will this work with the 100% transparent stock mod that I used for AOKP build 27? I'm running Crossbreed version 6 at the moment.

Thanks for your hard work, Jack, and I'm sorry if I was poking you in the side a bit too much.

Just one question: when rebooting into recovery the second time, how do I install apex since it's an .apk and not a zip file?

 

[chucklehead]

Some RED mods, please.

 

[Hansolo607]

This is a nice mod. Unfortunately doesn't work with Crossbreed using the 100% transparent navbar.

Hmmm.... Should work with all roms, what exactly is it doing?

Maybe I'm flashing it wrong. . .I get the half-black bar of death.

I uninstalled all apex and nova launchers by wiping their data and deleting them from /system/apps. I rebooted, wiped cache, dalvik, rebooted. I then installed your Apex .apk using root explorer, placing it within /system/apps. I then rebooted. Then I rebooted into recovery and flashed the 100% transparent navbar you created for AOKP M4. That's when I get the half-black bar of death.

:-(

I am running Crossbreed version 7, but when I tried it I was running version 6.

Do me a favor and go to APEX settings/homescreen settings/ wallpaper scroll/ disable wallpaper scroll.

Let me know

Im having a little trouble understanding this mod because Apex has an option to remove the shadows in settings. Am I missing something else?

no this mod had a short life span. the new apex has this option so this thread may get deleted real soon.

Okay, I will try it. In the process of flashing Crossbreed version 8, then the transparent navbar will be next.

Thanks for your hard work, Jack!

Success!! Thanks, Jack. I am able to use the stock Apex launcher, now that the shadows have been disabled if one so chooses. But your transparent navbar is my favorite mod by far!

Bloody genius!

Thank you, Jack
