Xda user DocRambone has created a MOD that will make your Galaxy S4 status bar transparent. This is simply for a nicer visual aspect of your device. It will basically look like this:In order to install this you will need to have a custom recovery installed. Then you will need to identify your phone's model number: I9500 (Exynos) or I9505 (Qualcomm). That's because each model has its own installer. This will work on both Odexed and Deodexed Roms.Before applying the mod, I recommend you do a Nandroid backup, so that you will be able to restore to the previous state of the ROM if you don't like it.You can download the files from here: After this just place the downloaded file on your phone's sd card and turn it off. Reboot your device in Recovery Mode and flash the .zip file using the 'Install from sd card' option. In the end just reboot the device and that's it.Xda user DocRambone has created a MOD that will make your Galaxy S4 status bar transparent. This is simply for a nicer visual aspect of your device.
