[Q] Vanilla notification bar

Hey everyone I was wondering if there was a way to change the sense notification bar (black) to the vanilla (white) notification bar?
Thanks in advance

Install a theme, it's here somewhere to make it have the aosp white bar... Or edit the files in framework-res

I don't know if this is the one the OP found, but I use this theme.. I even removed the HTC lock screen so I have the vanilla lock screen

(i think you'll need a deodex ROM - I use the stock HTC ROM that is deodexed)

Thank you!! Any other ones??? Im curious...

I've only noticed 2 themes like that (the other one IMO isn't that great due to some graphics errors).
Just search AOSP in the themes section and start looking.. that's what I did. but IMO the link I posted earlier is the best one.

I agree! thanks for your help!!

[Q] change notification bar

hello
I have CM7
and I want to change the ugly black background in the notification bar, to something like sense or something...
there is an application to change it?
thanks for any help

Theme Chooser, download themes from the market or on here. Transparent themes won't work unless you patch cm7 first though.

Never heard of patching it. Could you tell me how to do that?

a sick status bar will just be the icing on the cake for my wildfire.
I have tried apps like custom status bar and status bar + but neither offer what i want.
I'm sure i found an app that let me set wallpapers as the texture for the bar, but i cant remember which app it was

Thanks for the heads up. Hopefully i can have the whole thing themed up in an update before i start theming the apps. Like it says in the op their are some theming mistakes for now.
Btw ill see what i can do for ports since im working on the skyrocket version too.

Anyway you can get the battery bar to be the one that is shown in the intro photo? I really love that design and color scheme.

+1 for digital warfare. I've always liked this theme.

I'm not fluent on the roms here so idk how different they are. If someone could try testing this on different roms that would be cool. Idk when ill be able to port though.
I'm changing the battery icon to the one in the banner and the status bar also.

Got any icon packs to match? Only seemed to theme messages, gmail and dialer icon. Did some hunting around google

Do you know how to apply them yourself? I made a zip for you.
By the way It's a little hard having to switch roms around from skyrocket to t-mobile version. I was wondering if any of you would care to test the new updates for me? You'll be safe if anything goes wrong because I make reverts for each update.

I can test if you'd like?

Here is another screen with the battery level at 25%. The color in the battery icon is gone? Also, I'm guessing this battery is in increments of 5% rather than 1%?

Oh snap lol didn't notice I themed it darker. I also themed those widget toggle things pretty dark blue. Just glad it worked. Will update OP in a bit. Im keeping things the same for now unless people want lighter blue then ill put it in the next update.

[HELP] Sense App Drawer Transparent

What values would i have to change to make the app drawer in our SENSE launcher transparent?
Can someone please teach me step by step?

i don't believe anyone has figured this out yet

I'm waiting for a semi transparent appdrawer.. But i guess it's pretty difficult

Yeah, no one I know of has found it yet. I've done tons of background changes, additions, redirecting. Nothing works yet. I've been thru about half of the Smali in Rosie looking for a hack, but no luck yet. Hopefully soon someone can crack it, its one of my favorite mods as well.

some of us like sense. Thats why the majority of people buy the Device it for the nice widgets & features that are rendered useless with a different launcher.

I understand, but it is very difficult, for the moment, find that file. in the meantime if you want to have transparency, I suggested an (valid) alternative.
Goodnight rayford see you tomorrow!

He meant the app drawer..where you can see all your apps.
Sense 4.0 Rosie is a *****... :s

transparent appdrawer would be so awesome!

Apologies if I'm breaking any rules but....

1st off I wanna say no disrespect to the devs...I appreciate all the hard work that goes into all the awesome roms...seems that with all the talk of jellybean and without an official ics release that THEMING has taking a back seat..although i am enjoying team rejects change of pace (annihilation is awesome!) And I love the look of miui but I can't get it to work good enough for me to use as my daily,with that being said I kinda long for the days of a DUSK theme or an all white with black letter theme like the GTX rom I had on my TP2 I think these would look sweet on my et4g...anyone willing to work on anything similar to these?

I'm telling you guys, you can do it yourself, all you need is a good CM9 or CM7 base rom, find a theme you like for the theme Chooser in that rom, use a themeable launcher, Apex, ADW EX, or SSLauncher, this thread a **** ton of icon sets http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19600116
I use the free app ChargeBar (in play store) for a centered bottom status bar battery bar, I use Rom Toolbox to change system font, I use Android Pro Widgets for Twitter, Messaging, Bookmark, and Calendar Widgets...these have different themes and colors available for the Widgets....Here is a link to some of what I did with SsLauncher...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25394812

Not really any more than having Sense or something like that on your phone, its more of a kernel thing and we have some great evo specific kernel devs over here, you just have to find a pure AOSP rom without all the Sense, TouchWiz, Motoblur overlays, then just add your own Widgets icons launcher dialer keyboard font over that and create your personalized interface the way you want it....
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

was gonna post this elsewhere, but here's as good as a place as any i suppose. for those that want to mess around with theming here's a great place to start. it's a vrtheme template for our phone. It should work with most roms. here's a link with some quick info and the download link with our updated binary. all thanks to the villianrom team for a great template/idea
http://www.villainrom.co.uk/forum/threads/about-villaintheme-system.4971/
http://www.mediafire.com/?ddi2vc7qeg2y44x
basically instead of having to decompile and recompile apk's and have a complete and working apk to flash, this only requires that you place the images, xml's etc in the correct folder structure. everything is in the vrtheme folder in the zip. so to theme a system app, say systemui, you would create a folder called SystemUI.apk in the correct folder structure, namely vrtheme/system/app/SystemUI.apk. then all you have to do is drag and drop the images you want swapped into the proper folder locations. I included an example folder structure for images in drawable-hdpi for systemui and framework-res to get ya started. beauty of this is you can literally drag and drop whole sections of other themes into the template and it will just replace those images on our phone. So if those themes in the OP have same sized images and same names, you could just drag and drop those into the respective vrtheme zip folder and flash away. Make sense? just starting to get this going again on our phones, so mess around, but be careful, I'm obviously not responsible to anything you do
it can also be used to theme paid apps, which is sweet. since your not actually including the apk itself, and the app has to be in the location specified before you apply the theme.
