KitKat 4.4 status bar for non root - Droid Ultra Themes and Apps

Ok I've been searching the forum for an answer to this and everything I find is for rooted phones. Bit I have the droid maxx on 4.4 ota. Non rooted. Is there anyway I can get the transparent status bar and white icons seeing they left that out of the update.
Thanks for any answers and sorry if I just over looked it somewhere else

eh, even for root it's not terribly perfect. Talked with one of the program heads for the droid line at Motorola, and expressed our desire for it in the upcoming update. However, now that lenovo has bought motorola, no one has a clue

Ehhh.

Any downloaded KK launcher from the play store or Nova will give you the transparent status bar....the white icons will prob have to wait for 4.4.2

[Q] Contact screen color

Im new to androids and but familiar with the devices themselves. i switch from an iphone. when i first got my atrix hd the contacts menu and screen was black.
i did the OTA update and now the contact screen is white. which i really dont like. (such a trivial problem i know)
i was wondering if anyone knew how to or if it is possible to change the contact menu color back to Black.
thank you for all your help in advance!
There is no way of doing that unless you root your phone which can't be done yet in jelly bean release

You can use exdialer with ICS theme
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app
Yes u can but with the stock apps there is no way without rooting and nodding the stock apps
Sent from my MB886 using xda premium
So when the root comes out how would I go about changing it then?
You would have to mod it based on the ICS 4.0.4 Atrix HD version of the apk

[Q] Does anybody use the themerapp?

Hello everyone,
I've signed up for the beta a few weeks ago and I had the good surprise to receive my code yesterday.
I launched the app but what a disappointment when I realized there wasn't any theme displayed in the app.
After some research it seems linked to dpi or resolution of screen. I tried to change the dpi but no luck.
So did anybody find the good combination to display themes on our razr i?

Yes working fine.
As you can see in my topic in themes and apps and as I said in my topic to your question will not work if DPI or navigation bar has been modified
All the best moley

I think for that you need Pie control. Sorry I don't exactly know where you would be able to find it though.... Pretty sure it's included in most Paranoid Android ROMs (sorry it's been a while since I flashed anything so I might be incorrect).
There is an app in the play store as well and I don't think it requires root, but I would say that having it built into a ROM would work better.

what about locked rooted
What about if your not unlocked boot loader...how can u change soft keys locked n just rooted? Without the paid app I'm poor

4.4 hidden Easter Egg not right after upgrade

Anyone that upgraded today have the same issue as me?
After double checking my Android version in settings and seeing 4.4.2, I fast clicked the version number to her to the K that spins. Well, my K doesn't spin at all. I have to long press it to get to the red Android sign, and then long press again to get to the android tiles underneath. My tiles don't float around though. My wife's Note 3 upgraded fine and the easter egg works perfectly. This is making me paranoid that something else isn't right with my upgrade... I just haven't found it yet.

Mine spins, shows k. Tap it, spins. Tap and hold for red Android

I know what it should do. My wife's works fine. Mine doesn't. Mine doesn't spin, and my tiles aren't animated.

Sounds petty, but I'm just worried about what else didn't update correctly. May have ATT reflash in store.

They won't be able to. As of right now, KK is OTA only.

Good times. I Googled this to see if anyone else experienced this weird, hidden issue. Nothing online about it except my post here.

Could there be a problem with your screen's touch sensitivity? Have you tested that in other contexts? Or tried using the stylus with the Easter Egg?
Thanks. K now spins, but the second easter egg (android logo tiles) do not animate... Aka fly across the screen when you click them. Instead they blink in and out. No animation. Interesting.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app
Fixed. I had animation scales, rendering etc turned off in developer mode prior- in orde to make phone run faster. Good lesson.

How do you get this Easter egg to work?
Any others that I should know about?

Thank you! I am trying that but nothing happens. I'm tapping it as fast as I can.
My Note 3 is completely stock. I know the Developers is turned on but have no idea what that even means.
Thanks again!
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 via Tapatalk.
As long as you have a Note 3 that has been upgraded to 4.4.2, you can access this easter egg (or any device that has 4.4, not just a Note). If you go to YouTube and search for '4.4 easter egg’, there will be a ton of vids of people showing how to get there.
