[Q] Notification Bar not changing with Theme Changes... - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sorry if this has been asked already, which I'm sure it has. I did a search and couldn't find anything.
I think I knew the answer to this a while ago, but I can't figure it out. I've done a few reboots, but still I can't get the respective Theme I chose to be the pull down widgets/notifications bar.
Also on my old CM7 rom, I had a red theme and it changed my Torch icon, my handcent, and a few other non-default apps. That's not happening now.
Is there something else I'm supposed to do besides a reboot?

It's any of the themes. Even when selecting Cyanbread, everything else goes blue, but the pull down widgets/bar still remains green from the default theme.

try booting into recovery and format "cache partition" boot into phone and change you theme to the one you want. then go settings>applications>manage applications> and force close "status bar" it will refresh the bar.
if it doesnt work then you might have to back up you phone and wipe all and flash the rom over.

Launcher Pro Custom Icons

Just thought I would ask. I have contacted the developer as well.
I am using the latest Launcher Pro + and when I change the icons for my launch bar they don't seem to always stick. They seem to revert back to the stock icons instead of the updated .png files I have assigned it.
It happens randomly. Is it something I am doing incorrectly? Or is this a glitch?
Thanks for any comments in regards to this.
There is some talk about this over at the forum: http://launcherpro.com/forum I believe if you make it a blank link first, then put a regular icon link after, it kinda resets it and sticks. Head over there to verify...

Dude holy crap. I downloaded it today (I had a couple of times before, always crawled back to sense) and I had this exact problem. After a little while of being pissed and just re-applying, I found a solution, kinda like post 2 I guess. I just clicked on the slot, chose the same activity, and when it asked to choose an icon, THEN I picked the custom one. That worked
Thanks for the replies. I have tried that method as well. Two of the icons stick but like the center application icon reverts back first then the others follow. I will read more on the posted link. Thanks for some input. I am sure it will resolved. I like Sense but with custom icons and setting to bar to highlight froyowide I am enjoying it more and more. Please update anything you might find and vice versa.
Thanks

I'm pretty sure that's the ICS blue color.
Can I request transparent with ICS blue box and white "Google" & mic.
And transparent with white box and ICS blue "Google" & mic.
I think these two would be very popular!

Requests are mostly done. If i get a ton more, i'll switch to a gallery view of screenshots, so as to not make a mile-long post of screens.
Def want to try these! Just to verify.. These are the widget that stays at the top of all screens right? Or is it the old Search widget that is set on one screen?
Do I just use Root Explorer to back up my current Search.apk, replace & reboot?
Thanks!

These are actually the widget, as that is what a lot of people were requesting. I guess in theory, you could put one at the top of each screen, lol. I'll definitely be doing the regular one too, though within the next few days. I always install through adb, but yes, your method works too- it's just like any other system app.

Waiting for a similar one too.
Progress update, I've been at the hospital for the birth of my second child, so i haven't had a whole lot of time. I have managed to clean up the search results (what was Google thinking with that ugly gray?), but the persistent search bar is kind of hard to find the correct files to change. Might have to poke around in framework later. I'll post the search result changes later tonight.

Sorry for the newbie question but this means since it's a system app, I would need to be on a deodexed rom as well? Thanks.

Technically speaking you don't have to be deodexed to run a themed app as long as it doesn't call on the services of other apps. If it does, you run a high risk of getting a lot of FC's so most developers just say de-odexed only. This may run on odexed roms, but don't count on it. Make a backup of your original first if you want to try it.

Thanks for this explanation, I didn't realize that.
After some investigation, it seems that the persistent google top bar is actually located in my novalauncher.apk. There were quite a few issues with installation as a system/app (had to reflash the rom to get it to behave properly) and I'm not sure i want that headache, so i think i'll just do the widgets as they are completely self contained. If you'd like to do the persistent bar, I'll attach a NovaLancher.apk that has been themed ICS blue, but be warned- for some reason, it doesn't behave like a regular system app, so be careful.

It's a system app, so you don't "install" at all. Sounds like the easiest way for you is to use a root level explorer and copy the .apk file into the /system/app folder. It should then appear in your app drawer.
i did that and now i have lost the original and yours..
i can see the app in the system apps but i cant see it either on the app drawer or inside the apps.
What are you suggesting to do?
Thanks.

Google Now Notifications

I'm using Ericwill's unofficial CM10 rom and I have no notification icons in the status bar... However, when I pull down the notification drawer the card (weather, time to work) is in fact in there... Is there any way to get back the car icon or the cloud icon?
just a thought but have you check to make sure google now is actually on when you click search button and Google comes up hit menu/ settings and make sure its clicked on

Its a known issue for quite a few people. Actually I dont know anyone who runs cm10 that actually has it working properly. I just stop being bothered with it a while ago and moved on... Hopefully someone figures out exactly whats wrong

Problems after instaling 2013.01.01_cm-9_UNOFFICIAL-BUZZ

Hi,
I need some help.
After instaling 2013.01.01_cm-9_UNOFFICIAL-BUZZ ay first moment everithing was O.K.
The first thing what i did was to change the language. After that the main screen i thing resizes and the icons in the bottom of the screen disapered. When i put my finger in the bottom end of the screen can move them top to the screen, but the buton for the menu can't be moved.
Also when somebody calling me i think there have to be red symbol on the left and green simbol on the right - I cant see them.
How to resize screen to see the icons on the main screen?
When i install gapps it update the operating system, the phone restarts, ask for pin, apears an android and sayes "touch android to start" and after thet sayes setup stop working and have to install again 2013.01.01_cm-9_UNOFFICIAL-BUZZ to work normaly.
No body can't help me?
Have you tried a different ROM? Sometime some ROMs aren't resized to fit wildfire's screen.
Cheers

I didnt understand your first issue so i'll skip that.
To receive calls or to reject them,you need to pull the ring towards left or right.
Regarding gapps,you have installed gingerbread gapps,which wont work on ics,you need to download and install ics gapps.

I know that to receive calls or to reject them i have to pull the ring to the left or to the right. But i think that there have to be a green ring on the left and a red on the right - there are no rings there.
To explain clear the first think i am attaching a picture. This line is outside the screen down.
Before changing language was O. K.
I didn't understand you about gapps.

For the first issue,I guess you have 3 pages on the dock below,try swiping it..it might help.
Second thing,there are no green and red buttons since ics in aosp roms.

I know that there are 3 pages. As I explain in the first post the screen resizes and they disappear down, outside the screen. When i push my finger to the end of the screen i can take them and move up in the screen, but the central button for the menu can't be moved.

Go to play store and search for nova launcher, install it and see if it solves your problem.
try to flash the CM9 rom and the GApps again.
it can help u.
or try an other launcher like Wasimk32 says

[flashable][F3111][N] SystemUI and framework mods

Here's a mod pack including dark framework and notifications, settings, dynamic nav_bar, toast, dialog and menu boxes, nav_bar tuner, and scrolling nav_bar with directionals.
https://mega.nz/#!FsE0AYoZ!EN2HGon4sD1MkQZuQZ9ueO5dMvL6SN8x02RNkWfQUyI
Got the dark notifications down, and messing around with resolver, etc...
Changed and fixed a few things...
Op updated
Thanks for the mod! My night mode is always on, I am not able to turn it off. Where is the switch to the dark notification to the light one?

Dark mods in this pack are not switchable. Night mode is a different mod, and doesn't change any of the frameworks, but just the color values of the screen. If you want to go back and forth, the best thing to do is keep 2 copies of the flashable zip, and replace the modded files in one of them with your original stock files. Then you can flash back to your original whenever you want.
I fixed the dark lock screen clock. Let me know if anyone wants it.

Thanks. I changed something else since then, (can't remember what, but I remember that I never did figure out that space. I think I might have given up on the settings text experimentation and just went back to white), but didn't post it, since I wasn't sure if anyone was interested. I've been back on my Z1c for a couple of weeks now. I'll fire the XA back up and check it out again.
