[request] option to remove status bar and lockscreen gradient
asked 2015-09-27 12:57:21 +0200
I just switched from a dark to a bright Ambience and noticed my status bar has sort of a dark transparent gradient background. This kinda annoys me since it destroys the look of my wallpaper. I'd like to remove this background, maybe if the status bar would become hard to read there could be an option to let it use the color defined by the Ambience and not white. The same goes for the lockscreen, I simply don't like it that dark, it feels like my phone wouldn't want me to look at it.
lol, kind of the opposite of what I'm wanting. I'd like to see a gradient behind my status area. Can you post a screenshot please?

In my opinion I think it's one of the best ways to make the status bar readable, is to have what you don't like..lol. I'm now looking through lipstick files trying to find it to bring it back - if it was ever there, I don't know, I'm always editing system files, I forget what I've done.
A screenshot with Snow White original ambience (altered) without the gradient behind it;
