I have Virtuous 3.1.0 installed, and I was wondering how I could port the white notification bar from CM6 over, is it possible? What would I need to do.

The notification bar is part of the framework apk file, which isn't good to mess with unless you know what your doing as far as signing and pushing it back to the phone and all that.
I only successfully skinned a status bar in the new version of HTC Sense from the Desire HD because it supports skins its much easier to skin without changing out the framework and risk infinite reboot.
here's a good example
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
but to answer your question, yes its possible
is it easy? yes and no since the framework is involved here
Ninja morph.... get the .png you want, and swap it!
it's possible, it just takes a bunch if messing around to perfect your craft... basically you take the framwork-res.apk and the com.resoucres.apk and switch the white over tot he black. easier said than done...
I was all for the white status bar when I had my Eris. Now I love the black, I actually make the white bar black on CM6..

Hi There!
I am trying to find a Unlock screen that was in an earlier ROM I had (Ultimate but I can't recall which specific one).
Essentially it was a bar two thirds of the way down the screen, that went across the entire screen and required to be pulled down. I have seen two of these one that was like a oval shape and the other which was a rectangle, and I would like the rectangle one back.
Anyone able to assist please?
Seems like you are talking about the Themed version of Epic Lockscreen.
Do you have an example and do you know how I can reinstate it?

This is how the stock version of Epic Lockscreen looks like. You need to install a Theme which has 5 lockscreens based on your ROM.
Thanks but that isn't the one I am talking about. The one I am talking about is a pull down bar
Something like this:

that's not epic lockscreen, you're looking for a sense lockscreen. install widgetlocker.
I tried but I couldn't work out how to replace the lockscreen with another type, and they only give you 15 minutes before you can't get a refund before you end up keeping it so I uninstalled it. All it did by default was add more options to my lock screen I couldn't see how to change the format and look of the actual one.
Anyone else able to assist?
And another Bump!
sounds like valle mod 0.7. Not the new ones and there's no pictures of it.

that was a themed epic lock with a black bar you had to pull down
I always seen screen shots that have THIS task bar at the top there. What rom/task bar is that?
I'm wondering if its a specific rom for a certain phone or a bar that can be put on any phone. It's very clear, easy to see etc.

It could be a port, I might be wrong though but it might be another phone completely. I've never seen any Evo Rom with that notification bar.

It's the stock Android status bar pre-Gingerbread (Froyo, Eclair, Donut, etc.). The CM6 final (Froyo) ROM is the best ROM for that (but it wouldn't be too tough to replace the assets on any ROM).
I believe that is the default stock from google android taskbar on 2.2 and below
im unsure what rom would have that though
Edit: lol too slow...

So back in October of 2010, some guy named Irkan made the version for a black notification bar and I made the version for the white notification bar. Here they are, they work great in ICS. Just download and install like a normal apk.

Can you make 1 with stock battery icons for Android Revolution 2.1.2? LTE version?
no only because i don't have time. feel free to break into the apk and replace the icons though.
if you search for my posts on androidforums.com you'll find some links to big battery icons that are ICS type but probably lower resolution. might work.
Is this for the notification bar?
If so, does it replace the stock battery icon, or add an additional one?
Wow nice!!! But would you please explain what's the difference between two files? I'm running everything stock (locked bootloader), which one should I use?
If later one we decided to go back to the original, will simply uninstall this app work?
It adds an additional one. Just tried it. Would be nice if it was a replacement, which I guess would require root at the very least.
Okay so after using a few different roms for a while, I found that now (despite formatting and going back to stock) that I still have a battery bar line that is a transparent dark purple that changes colours depending on the background.
Any suggestions? Aside from maybe exchanging it. I know my description is pretty vague but there really isnt much too it because it wont go away regardless of rom

Hey, i dont mean to bump this but I see NO ONE else having this problem and the fact of the matter is the battery bar clearly did this to my device now.
I am going to return my device because of this but Im looking for some incite whether a fix or just a reason this may have happened as I actually love the battery bar.
normal burn-in :-/. mine is starting to get one to (when browsing in fullscreen with white background the part where the status bar was supposed to be is a little bit of blueish). i'm sure they will exchange your screen/phone
Yeah I see this, but use full screen to use those pixels more. And use status bar tweaks to change battery to green text so the burn in stops etc.
Hello! I'm here with a simple question, and I'm hoping there's a simple answer.
In Android 2.3, the default background for system menus and such is plain black. From Android 4.0 on, this background changed to this greyshade gradient.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I think the gradient-style background, as shown on the right, is a lot better looking. So my question is, how can I implement this background into my Gingerbread ROM? I know it must be possible, since AChep has done a CM7 theme that uses this background style. Sadly, that theme is for LDPI/MDPI devices only, so I can't use it - but at least it's proof that what I want can be done.
So, how would I go about implementing this gradient background into the ROM I'm currently running? The list dividers as well, while we're at it.
Thanks in advance!
PS: Currently running MildWild-V 4.3, which is an ICS-themed, Oxygen-based AOSP ROM.
Bump. Anyone?

Here is an hdpi equivalent:

However, you have to decompile a few apks to port it to oxygen based roms
