As far as I know, there's actually no factory option for that, unless a rom itself have it. Maybe you can try with a custom launcher, surely any have what you need.

Or MIUI. Or a custom rom such as Amestris, which lets you select the icons on the top bar.
use MIUI or CM7, there's allot option there

is transparent dock possible

is there anyway of having the dock transparent on the homescreen of my non-rooted htc one, it looks intrusive when setting a nice wallpaper. they have done the status bar and it would have looked better with the dock also, i know i can use a custom launcher and get rid of the dock altogether. but i find must launchers will bring up the black bar with the three dots at some point which is just as bad. so does anyone know if anybody has looked into this without using root or custom rom. thanks in advance..........................sudeki300
Yeah, i have asked for this myself, but i dont want to root.

There are mods available to do this but you need to unlock the bootloader, flash custom recovery and then root your device.... the options without are limited if not non-existent.
I would prefer to use an launcher than doing all that, i have used GO Launcher on my S3 and it worked great, might give it a go on my H1
John.
I also would like to do this , and I am rooted
is there something I could flash ?

Hide status bar icons?

Is there a way to hide the status bar icons without Xposed? I've searched, but everything I found involves using Xposed.
Thanks

I've been searching as well. I'd really like to get rid of bluetooth, NFC, and the alarm icon.
Exactly the icons I want to remove.

In the past it was possible by editing some of the framework files to remove the icons completely from the library. Finding them can be somewhat time consuming. I'll look into it ... I've promised I'd look into a couple things and just haven't had time yet, busy time of year at work and the desire to get outside before the true summer heat hits has been strong ... but I will get there.
this thread shows you how to get rid of the NFC icon. I'd guess that others can be removed in the same manner

I'm not sure if there are options for the other icons in the CSC file. On other galaxy devices you needed to literally edit the framework files because the icons were hard-coded in there.
Great find though, CSC tweaks are always helpful and everyone should be able to do them.

There is an app call Notifications Off which I used to use but I haven't tried it yet on this phone. Here is the link if you want to try: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aboutmycode.NotificationsOff

Yeah, kind of sucks. It hasn't been updated since last year. It used to work great and even allowed different profiles that could be changed with Tasker.
How about hiding the whole status bar? Lol. so you don't see it unless you swipe down. you might need another launcher. Don't know if with touch wiz you can do that.

Touchwiz launcher won't do that but you can do that with a third-party launcher like Nova for example. Another third-party launcher I really like is action launcher 3.
Nova launcher can hide the notification bar. its a great launcher

Mobile data on status bar

Has anyone found a way yet to include the Mobile Data switch icon on the status bar? I hate having to click on the settings icon in the status bar, then Data usage and finally the switch. I've always had it in my status bar with other phones so this is annoying. I am rooted but no custom ROM yet. Waiting for official 5.1.1. Just wondering if anyone knows how to do this if it is possible.

You could download a custom Lockscreen App for that

hehe, my mod is hiding the center clock that show on status bar.
Till the moment i released my mod, there was no similar mods, all of them moved the clock to the center of the status bar but it was shown on lockscreen.
Anyway, i guess peter is looking for hiding the clock that shown on lock screen itself, not status bar.
You are right, I want to get rid of the "center clock"...
Hello Peter, i was trying to make it smaller by editing dimens.xml but somehow it didn't changed anything.
BUT! i didn't try to hide it completly, if you want you can decomiple the OPSystemUI.apk and go into /res/values/dimens.xml , there you'll find many lines. The lines that care for lockscreen dimensions have in their name "keyguard" , so play with the "x.xdip"
0.0dip will make it dissapear.
Good luck!

If you're​ ok with a smaller clock, update to beta 4.
They changed the size of it.
