Has everyone ever thought about porting the default/stock android notification bar, with all its icons and such and its greyish color?? The same I can see in the android emulator on my computer to be clear...I think it's really good!
Is it difficult to port it?
no wouldnt be to hard you would have to replace the icons from galaxy framework-res.apk with the ones from stock one
Looking for this but can't find it anywhere
I made stock like notification bar a while ago, but I haven't had time to finish it. The only thing that was left was changing the text colour on the notification bar / pull down.
EDIT: I've attached the file. If anyone wants to take up the project, they can. Replace the framework-res file with the one attached. Will not work via update.zip as I haven't set it up to be flashed. It's for XXJPO.

Hi.
I'm going to mod my stock ROM to be as i want, but i need to know which image files i need to edit for making a custom Application-Bar, you know the one to pull up and down on homescreen.
Anyone knows?
status_bar_close_on.9.png is the bar that is dragged down and the permanent one at the top is statusbar_background.png
Already got that one modded with the hero status bar.
Its the one at the bottom with the apps i want to change. Got any idea what these files are called?

I've only done this with cyanogen so not sure whether this is same for all but here goes:
Launcher.apk\res\drawable-port\ic_tray_collape.png
Launcher.apk\res\drawable-port\ic_tray_expand.png
Launcher.apk\res\drawable-port\tray_handle_pressed.png
Launcher.apk\res\drawable-port\tray_handle_selected.png
and the background for the Launcher menu:
Launcher.apk\res\drawable\pattern_carbon_fiber_dark.png
if we change the bar to darker colour, surely it will be impossible to read the clock. Could someone confirm?
Thanks

With a little more modding you can change the text color.
Changing the clock colour is a pain as it is in services.jar rather than the framework-res.apk, if anyone has steps to edit the services.jar do let me know
check out the dream section- there is a thread there about how to do it. Not easy.
Is anyone good with transparancy? If so would you mind helping me with my rom? You can pm me, add me on aim, gtalk, or msn all of them are the same screen name [email protected],gmail,live.com I would really appreciate it. The rom is bases of stock 3.70 deodex. Thanks in advance!
Already on board
Remember that fix I told you about that I was trying to accomplish today? Well I started it and it messed up my entire status bar and notification window. I have the GB battery with froyo icons, and GB notifications. The status bar isn't fully black but it's not transparent you can't see through it at all no matter how bright the wallpaper is. The notification window is all black which I also want to be transparent. It's like I did the complete opposite of turning it transparent and made it like a blackout theme lol which I didn't want to do. I'm going to put the notification bar toggles in there and send you the framework-res.apk in a couple minutes.

alright shouldn't be too hard for me to fix this
Here Is The Framework-res.apk
I also removed all GB from the rom because it was having to many problems to find out where the error is so everything is pretty much stock. Only thing included is 4in1 reboot, 4x5 workspace and appdraw, I was putting the hotspot hack in but I don't think it worked out but I should be able to fix that.
Edit removed old framework
Here is my new framework I haven't found any problems with this one. It has a 4x5 workspace, app draw, 4 in 1 reboot, power widgets in the notifications, and sprint hotspot hack. Next i want to change the dock from stock to GB, then after that work on the status bar.
Since i dont have the slightest idea how to do this myself...
Is there anyone that would consider slightly changing the Litening 1.0 framework/UI for me?
I like the rom, it works very nicely, just a few things id really like to change with its look.
I really have trouble with reading menus (the ones that appear when phone is doing something or when you press long to get menu for copy, paste, move...) when the text below them is seen through, id also love to have the notification panel that you pull down without the logo in a simple black non-translucent color.
So if you could make version with the menus and those windows non-transparent, make the notification panel also a simple non-transparent black without the logo and if its not too hard maby add the overscoll glow... i know its a long shot asking this just for me, but id be so happy if this could be done and i bet some other users might also like such a mod...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101879
here it is
I know of that one, but all the menus are still transparent, as well as the notification area (it doesnt have the logo which is nice, but its transparent instead). I really cant use transparent windows as it literally makes my head hurt. Thats the thing i need the most, solid menus/windows/notification area like all the other roms have. The circular battery icon from litening id miss if i used that mod, i really like that circular battery icon. So basically just need to get rid of transparency, the rest is pretty much gravy in litening... the overscroll glow would be a nice bonus, but not nearly as important to me.
I know this is a bit off topic now, but is there any way i could get the power savings widget like it was on the Galaxy S (think it used to be called power control and it had just wifi, bluetooth, gps, sync and brightness) with either blue or green lights? Could i get the one from Galaxy S somewhere that would work or has this already been made somewhere maby?
Or another way would be if someone would deodex the stock framework from KE7 for me so it would work in Litening 1.0... or teach me how to do that myself...
That would replace the menus and notification area with the stock one and leave the system menu and battery icon intact right?
Anyone willing to deodex it for me or at least tell me how to do it myself?
What do you want done? Just a black notification pulldown with no transparency? If so, if you upload your SystemUI.apk from your system/app folder I will do it for you.
EDIT: Or don't bother, I see you've just gone offline. If you want it done in the future, send me a PM.
PM sent. 10char.
Hello i was wanting to know how to change the image in the pulldown bar like you see in the UOT kitchen and if its possible to change the top buttons images like the wifi on / off and 4G on /off ect or the whole button itself
there in the SystemUI.apk located in system/apps
res/drawablehdpi folder
just edit in any image editor but try and stay away from the .9.pngs they are special and a pain in the bum.
you can just change .apk to .zip to unzip then rezip and rename.apk
you want the quicklaunch icons for the drop down icons
and status_bar_background for the actual background
thank you bro for such a fast answer
no problem i just happen to be trollin through
do you happen to know were the battery images are ?
and if i could just remove all the stock ones with ones from another theme for my phone ?
battery images are in framework-res
system/framework
if using ones from another phone you'll probably need to do some renaming
most roms currently on our phone use full 100 % increments
if i remember correctly there are 203 total 100 unplugged
100 plugged and a full empty and unknown
thanks again you have been a huge help
anytime
if noone shares the info this stuff can be a royal pain.
If you use the UOT Kitchen and keep getting errors, try un-checking Patch9 autofix. This will not decompile the 9patch images and may allow your theme to build. It worked for me with modding ACS Ice Cream Sandwich Theme (modded battery only).
thank you
and are there any other theme kitchens or rom kitchens for our phone ?
oh and i noticed there are two different default pull-down backgrounds one under systemUI.apk and one under the frameworks.apk and both are different sizes and dimensions , witch ones do i change ? or do i change both ?
the one you want for the drop down background is
status_bar_background.png
in SystemUI.apk

I'm fairly new to Android, coming from my FrankenPre to the Epic Touch. I want to begin editing the icons and images on my phone, and I've been exploring some ROMs ansd themes and switching up some icons, which have worked fine. However, I have no idea exactly where all the images are kept. For instance, I tried to change the stock Email icon, but the images I changed weren't right, and I was somehow left with the "Android Robot" icon.
My question is, seeing as how you know where these images reside on the phone, how do I go about knowing which icons are where, and which ones I need to change? Is there a list somewhere of the stock system images and their locations, or is it trial and error to figure out where they are? Thanks for the help.

Hi there.
Not so much long ago, I downloaded a file here that added to my notification bar the Wifi-Sound-Bluetooth-GPS-etc. switches, without any more change, it still looks like the stock notification bar when it's not open. For doing this, I remember I downloaded a file from this forum and overwrote the one inside my phone. But I don't remember wich file was.
Now I want to change the look of my notification bar. I don't want so much special, I just want it fully black, without any "light effect" as in the stock one. Simply black. The letters are ok as they are in stock.
So, in order to do this I think I remember that I have to modify again that file that I overwrote.
Am I right? How I do it and without deleting the sitches that I added first? Thanks.
I like the xperia S themed one from darkforest.
I've attached it if you want to try it. It's all black except for a slightly brighter line at the bottom.
EDIT: Actually, after a close look, it's not completely black (i.e. #000000), but a bit brighter than that.
Here's a screenshot of it http://i1144.photobucket.com/albums/o500/keiranFTW/playlist.png
