Hi I'm on a 2.1 Sense rom and I was just wondering how do I change the notif bar's battery and background?
I tried just changing the icons in the framework-res apk in the drawable-mdpi folder
then I just saved it and pushed it and replaced the original framework but that just put me on an endless repeat of booting so I came back to 2.1 sense so .. How do I change it ?
I'm trying to change it like A motoblur theme
If I can't do it no Sense UI please tell me how to get it working on either GB or froyo?
I'm on the new radio btw
cm6.1 well you can go into cyanogen setting under ui than extras there is some different ones to pick you can use a theme you can flash a custom one its all on you or your rom
i suggest a theme poke around the forums for one
you can find a metamorph theme for your phone. and you just apply the notification bar with metamorph app
hi,
quick question: how to edit the quick settings in the drop-down menu (notification tray) in Gingerbread Sense ROMs ? (im using insertcoin)
i want to know ! how to do ?
Maybe this Thread helps you
well unfortunatetly no answer there, just an idea to decompile an .apk and suit it to my needs.
still, anyone ?
Its so simple in MIUI Rom... their is an option in settings/Personal/ Custom Status Bar..
Incase you desperately want the setting, you can try MIUI ;-)
Well it's a difference if you did the thing yourself or if you want to change a HTC based feature without big hacks. I think it's pretty much impossible.
But if there is a solution, let me know - 2G/3G is missing
it is not impossible, in stock you get only a few quick settings, in custom roms (rcmixs, insertcoin) devs extended it - i want to know how, so i can remove the unneeded shortcuts.
robocik: not that easy, you should take a modded systemui.apk and a stock one, decode both with apktool and diff them, that way you will see how it is maked and will be easier for you to modify it.
this is the method, have not tried it yet though.
if any of you intrested guys tries to do this, i really apprecieate your feedback here thx.
and big thanks to robo, not only for all the amazing job he is doing for our community, but also for responding to my Q
I have rooted Desire Z with Virtuous Sence v2 Rom.
Go to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1071118
and download Extra QuickSettings 0.2

Extract SystemUI.apk from zip file.
I used DroidExplorer to replace original : system/app/SystemUI.apk
with the downloaded one and have ne quick settings menu.
Is there any way to change "quick settings" with rooting?
If by "change" you mean "add/remove features in the settings list", yes, there is. Check out this thread.
Hey guys,
i want to edit the quick settings in the notification bar. I don't want to flash anything, i want to edit it by myself, so i can put in the stuff i want.
can somebody tell me, witch things i have to edit and where i find them. Or is this too complicated?
(I'm using 2.13 jikantaruROM - Android 1.3.5)
You can only if you create a rom with the desired features in it, then you can also add the quick settings to power menu.
If you install CM7, you can have a quick settings bar at the top.
I'm still s-on and use widgets for this. Go Launcher with the Go widget works great!
I seriously loathe the uber-colorful icons that TouchWiz has for things like the Camera, Gallery, Dialer, etc.
What do I need to do to change them to stock JellyBean icons? Root? Theme? Alternative launcher?
Thanx in advance.
It's super easy to change icons using Nova, & you don't need root. I don't have experience with other launchers, or methods.

Idk if it's the same on the s3 but it is easier if rooted I believe. Drag your rom that your theming onto your computer, find system ui. Apk and extract just that, then open it with 7zip or something like that and then it's in one of the folders inside of the res folder. I think that's where the icons are stored. As long as you don't change the names, you'll be fine. Just replace them and restart your phone. Or re flash using the modified rom
Download a launcher of your choice. My first choice for pimping the UI is sslauncher. Then find an icon pack you want to use. For simple icons that you can choose the colour of I recommend MetroStation.
Icons are normally change in most launchers by first placing them on you home screen and then long pressing them and choosing edit.
Good luck
Check out "mycolorscreen" for inspiration.
Thanx to all 3 of you.
Do any of the methods above help with the notification icons also? I find it really odd that the text messaging notification icon is an envelope... you know, like email.
I want to change back to the stock notification icons for 4g/Signal bars/Wifi etc on my rom.
Is there any simple way to do that? i tried replacing the framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk with the ones from a base TW one.
I can't seem to get it done. Any help?
