I have been using GravityBox on my Xperia ZR running JB 4.3 (101) firmware. But after flashing Kitkat .230, it does not show up.
Quick setting is set to on in gravitybox, and I installed Xperia Flip Settings.
Whenever Xperia Flip Settings is active, SYSTEMUI gets FC.

Download the one made for Kitkat because there are now two versions of gravitybox, one for JB and one for KK

only this thing is not working.

im asking for either a mod or a very comprehensive vanilla jelly bean stock rom instead of sony's own stock rom.
any solution will be very appriciated.
in stock rom (like RomAur v6.3) i can not edit my Navigation bar ring targets . the only app i find , was gravity box , and when i edit my navigation ring with it , it appear there . but nothing happened with selecting one of them .
gravity box in cm11 worked fine , just the kill foreground app had bug .
so what should i do ?! i want it on stock rom

I have that kind of issue with Z2 and gravity box ( Stock ROM ) and when I select the shortcuts, they don't work and they are just clickable and nothing happen after you click on them.
Did you find any solution for it ?
Same here, z2 stock 4.4 Fw 402
Gravitybox is meant to work with AOSP roms, that's CM11 AOKP etc. You should expect bugs on stock roms. Just read the thread with gravitybox.

I was on Slimkat 5.0 stable and I had transparent status bar. I flashed Slimkat 5.4 weekly I still got the kitkat transparent status bar turned on by default somehow and later on I flashed few other ROMs PA 4.4.3 nightly and then PAC MAN 4.4.3 nightly after these I flashed Slimkat 5.0 stable back and I have lost transparent status bar. Even with xposed framework and gravity box I can't get it back to being transparent. I clean flashed all the ROMs.
What do I do now?

Try using a different launcher. Nova allows it.

I tired that too. Didn't work.
I finally found the solution...had to remove this line from build.prop to get kitkat transparent status bar turned on: ro.config.low_ram=true

Or you can configure it in Settings->Performance-> Force high-end graphics[ENABLE it] and Reboot the device
If you don't see 'Performance' option in Settings, then goto Settings->About Phone, Tap 'Build Number' option for 6 times, you'll enable Performance Option

What mods are you trying to install? I can tell you that some modifications don't like Sony firmwares... And that could probably be the cause.

SoftkeyZ was working for me on Android 4.4 CyanogenMod, so it probably has not been made to work with Sony firmware. And for the second mod, you already have the answer. It is only compatible with Android 4.4 and causes a system crash when installed on Android 4.3.
Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do.. Unless you know how to modify SystemUI and change the icons or port the Xperia Keyboard to android 4.3.
But, if you really want these mods, then install Android 4.4 CyanogenMod because it is compatible with a lot more Xposed mods and other applications..

You don't necessarily need to unlock bootloader to install custom rom, but I would personally suggest you to stay away from installing a custom rom if you have never done so earlier on any other phone and you aren't really an advanced user. Sony's 4.3 is quite good if you are lucky enough not to face lags. I would like to suggest some good modules for sony firmware which you might want to try out -
1) GEM Xperia xposed
2) Flat style coloured bars (for lollipop styled statusbar and navigation bar colouring)
3) GravityBox (you need to be a bit careful with this one)
4) Hide stamina mode icon
5) SEMC phone patcher
6) Xperia flip settings (replaces xperia toggles in statusbar with cyanogenmod styled ones)
Don't forget to read the module description before installing to understand what it does. Enjoy (Y)

thanks ,i've tried to update my old Galaxy Mini back 2years from now and it was successful and soft break it once,but doing it to my xperia makes me nervous . And by the way ,thank so much for the modules i will try some of them later.Thanks !!
Hey,
Since our Xperia SP can't taste official kitkat, I decided to deodex my stock firmware and flash the Xperia Z2 4.4.2 systemui ported for 4.3 in another thread...
I am really satisfied with that, just a small question though...
The status bar is semi-transparent. I would like it to be completely black, like the 4.4.2 firmware for the Xperia E1, or the 14.3.A.0.681 for the Xperia Z1, again on 4.4.2...
I've searched basically everywhere, but every 4.4.2 systemui port has a semi-transparent status bar, unlike the original darker one...
Stupid question maybe
Thanks in advance...
