Refer first post..

Firstly I would say thanks to you
But should you know, the link to overscroll glow you're given is not compatible with KPN. Use this instead (that is a link to my own thread )
Maybe this theme should be featured on my thread

In status bar..few notification icons and battery icon will change...

Hello, as well, friend!
I'm using fla.sh X2, but flashed on top of XXKPH. Here's what works:

a) Battery Icon Change (Bar with %)
b) Colored Status bar icon
c) Busy circle changed.
d) Dark Black Popup with Orange Glow.
e) Orange outline
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
a) Yep, it's blue (when full)
b) I don't know what you mean here, but I take it's the icons on the status bar. If so, they remain unchanged; they're still Android Green here.
c) Not changed either. Still fla.sh's original Aero-like busy wheel.
d) Can't say anything here because I don't know how to trigger the popup
e) Can't say anything here either, because I don't know which "outline" this is.
Hope that helps, friend(s)! And thanks for the theme!

First of all I have made this for Fla.sh x2 KPN base. If it is working on KPH baseband then its very good...find ur reply..
a) Yep, it's blue (when full) - it is ok..
b) I don't know what you mean here, but I take it's the icons on the status bar. If so, they remain unchanged; they're still Android Green here. - Only few icons have been changed, like missed call notification, sd card reading, sync notification.
c) Not changed either. Still fla.sh's original Aero-like busy wheel. - Busy circle should be like the one in the attached screenshot.
d) Can't say anything here because I don't know how to trigger the popup - Pop up means every pop up..like volum setting. To test just long press home button, this will show recent apps. you will find black popup, orange outline and orange glow.
e) Can't say anything here either, because I don't know which "outline" this is.- See my previous comment.

Haha, my phone looks nothing like the screenshot. I guess it's not compatible for KPH.
Thanks for sharing, though!

[REQ] White ICS statusbar icons for CM9

Ok.. ive searched and bought like 2 themes... and still nothing is what i want!
i tried Black infinitum and Holo white... They do give me white icons yes... the theme "Black Infinitum" is the closest ive managed to find
what i want is: 100% original ICS icons in white... not some ugly % battery or another battery!(no offence..) but 100% stock, but in white..
so what im asking is...
Anyone know a theme wich is black/white instead of black/blue? i want it to be 100% the same icons, but in white..
SOLVED

Go for Photoshop & make them as you like & then : show & share!

don't u think ive allready tried that ? i am not that good at photoshop.. but i know the stuff that i need! but some of the pics are wierd.. so not easy ive seen the pack somewhere.. i know it! but im on CM9 so dunno.

Are you talking about the framework stat_sys icons?
If yes, I'll sort some out for you later tonight when I've finished up a couple of things.
Or
I can teach you how to use Photoshop to get your desired look.

i want this theme but with a white version of the stock ICS battery
he is using the stock icons in white, but the battery isn't stock... its a meter of some sort.. and i don't want that
instead of blue/black i want white/black...
hope u understood this

So you dont want white "stat_sys" icons you only want white "stat_sys_battery_" icons from the sdk 15?

well kinda i just want the stock ICS icons... but only in white and not blue if its possible to make a flashable zip it would be awesome, or if u could edit the black infinitum theme and PM me it because its donate.. so i guess sharing it here would be.. illegal (i got the donate version)

Thats what i said originally, you want the the stock framework icons from sdk 15(ICS) in white not blue.

UOT is the most complete self help theming tool around.
People who complain are either idiots and cannot use it

Try it and decide for yourself.

EDIT: this is not correct, it worked.. but it gives me the wrong battery icon :/ i want stock ICS icon, not sense icon :/

You wont find stock ics battery icons in white.
There are too many incompatabilities when overlaying the icons with white, you would need to recreate them individually.
Just use the sense icons and rotate them 90' clock wise

[Q][SOLVED!] How to make transparent pulldown background ?

Hi guys
I'am wondering how to make transparent pulldown background on 4.0.4 Samsung ics roms for our GS3 ?
I managed to do it properly on GS2 but tried many things from GS2 and it didn't worked, it's all black.
I'am pretty sure that it's a line code color to modify somewhere in SystemUI.apk, but can't find it, unfortunately.
Saw some themes in this section which was included it, so this feature is possible :laugh:
Any advice or small tutorial is welcomed !
If I find the solution before, I will post it here on this post.
Many thanks! :good:

Just search "android:background" in that xml file.

Thanks for your message.
I replaced 8 matches of "android:background" by #00000000 code color as said in the thread, in "tw_status_bar_expanded.xml" file, and it's still not working, everything is still black.
By the way, why choosing #00000000 color code instead of #00FFFFFF ? this last one is the color code of full transparency.

Just made a new test.
In "res/values/drawable.xml" I changed all "background" and "_bg" values to #00FFFFFF which is the color code of 100% transparent.
Made 2 test flashable zips :
test1 : stock png's = still no transparency
test2 : with my modified transparent png's = still no transparency
I remarked something interesting.
When device comes to homescreen, before it finish loading some widgets, when I try to pulldown notification bar, this one comes transparent like I want at the first centimeters I try to open it, and before coming to the bottom, came black again, and stay black then.
Maybe the source of the problem is somewhere else. I'am using Go Launcher EX, and remember one tips : using high quality drawings can help to get transparency in some cases : not mine. Tried to activate the transparency notification bar : not working.
Any other help would be appreciated.

[MOD][JellyBean] Black Status Bar 3/13/13 (Almost Done)

Update: 3/13/13 More thanks go out to the people that were able to get this done. I was able to get a flashable zip with more of bleached45's images working.
I know many people (including myself) are missing the black status bar mod from ICS. After a collaborating with other people I was able to figure something out.
By the way you don't need my permission to do anything with this zip (haha). All I ask is that you please thank me (always wanted to be thanked) and give me any critical advice to theming you have (trying to learn the right way).
To Install: (You must be on ZVB Deodexed to use!)
1.Flash the attached zip
2.Wipe cache and dalvik
3.Reboot
3.Win MVP
I'm responsible for nothing that happens to your phone (always wanted to say that). If your qualcomm enhanced location service force closes, Wipe your cache between the reboot. Otherwise just go to settings/wireless networks/more.../mobile networks/connections optimizer. Accept the terms and uncheck the box. The service is annoying anyway.
Issues:
The edit quick toggle button looks kind of weird :-/
There is a very small line inbetween the quick toggles and the date bar
Thank These People!
AdriVelasquez for the Deodexed Rom
B-Reezy for our original LG port of the black mod
bleached45 - Original theme creater and source of the files, and the flashable zip base
Lrod0175 - Provided the status bar with the cool blue bottom and was very helpful with feedback
pcrhckyman - Pointed me in the right direction for source of files
Kobe Bryant - For having the heart of a champion

Re: [MOD][JellyBean] Black Status Bar (Work-In-Progress)
Cool, I thanked you by the way
Edit: the reason you have the white edges is because that's a .9 image and you cannot color the whole image, you have to color the image inside the dots or lines in the edges, those are the ones that allow the image to stretch. You also need to decompile the app to see the points and lines of the .9 images other wise they will show as a regular PNG.

Nope definitely not done. I didn't want to scare people away lol. But now that you mention it, I probably should keep it in.
I liked everything b-reezy did, so I'm gonna try and get it there. Not sure about the battery bar mod.

Hey, I have a JB version out for the ATT variant, I believe you can get the files out of my mod and copy them into yours.
I would offer more help but have class in a few minutes and don't have my computer.
I recompiled the .9.pngs and I believe the file names are the same.
What the files are called I don't remember off the top of my head.
Just copy/paste any pure black images from my mod and the bottom slider (the two pngs with the 3 horizontal bars) and the quick settings edit buttons.
It is mostly just eyeballing what file looks like what part of the UI.
I can't promise it will work, but it should.
HERE is my thread. All 4 JB versions have the same image files, so it shouldn't matter which one you grab.

If (big if) I get a chance tonight and I don't see anything else posted here, I'll see if I can port (read: copy lol) the rest of the files and post a test apk.
If it works I'll make a .zip.
Well, that's the plan. No promises ATM.

Thank you for everything. I used your indi_noti_btn_edit_normal.9 and indi_noti_btn_edit_pressed.9 files in drawable-xhdpi and it appears they are not stretched the same for our phones. I attached a screen. I'm reading how to edit .9 pngs but I haven't had any luck. If you could drop a few words of wisdom I would appreciate it. Specifically, I see the original dots of the png. I'm assuming I erase those in the photo editor and resize the image, then use draw9patch and put new dots in the same place? And if I see a black border on the side of the grey image, can I assume they stretched the entire side of the png? Thanks for everything and sorry to take your time from school, I'm in school as well.

Good luck! Start with simple stuff, like changing status bar icons and go from there.

I would love to see a Black Status Bar similar to the one b-reezy posted for ICS or the other JB Status Bar but without the changed icons.

Actually it doesn't look like the apk decompiled right. Anybody have any tips on apktool? followed the directions with the LG framework but it's still spitting out errors.

Yes, that's correct, shoot me a pm if you hit a wall. If u want download my OptimusBlueBlend theme and decompile the systemUI, compare it to yours, that way you'll see the themed images, then you can start with yours, by the way u can use mine if you wanna add a full battery set from 1 to 100.

Try apkmultitoolhttp://apkmultitool.com/ I've been using it a long time now and it has worked good, make sure u install android 4.1.2 framework-res.apk, you can also use your phone framework, you can do it from the set up script, it will pull your phone frameworks for u.

Tablet UI transparent status/sys bar HELP

Ok guys,
Im going to post this in every Note 2 variant forum until I can figure this out.. I mmanaged to get a working transparent status/systembar on my note 2 on tablet UI.. the only problem being that my phone totally locked up and being the DUMB a$$ that I am I did create a backup.. reflashed a rom and thought I could recreate it.. I have located what I think the files name is and it is tw_status_bar_background.9.png. Now when I try to recreate it the status bar becomes all distored when pressing something.. I will show you pictures below of it working and it NOT working.. Any help or guidance would be much appreciated.. I am not asking anyone to give me a step by step but more of just yes thats the right file or no thats not it..
PS the black line you see at the bottom of first pic is bc the wallpaper is not scaled properly, which can be fixed..

Honestly the easiest way to do this is to simply have a rooted phone and put ParanoidAndroid rom on it or one that has hybrid settings. It has an option to change the status bar color and you can make it transparent

Are you currently on a touchwiz rom?
Most devs use a hex value for the status bar, very few have a png.
If its a hex, change value to #00000000 where the first 2 digits represent the transparency value an rest is color.
If it is using a png image as you say and its a '9 png file, then it has other things that has to happen to it before you can use it.
Its gotta be patched by draw9patch. Then recompiled. After that, you can do what your looking to do.

The only thing is .9png that I most certainly think it is..is 4pxls by 54pxls so trying to edit it then patch is a B$%#^H..if you catch my drift.. and I havent been successful at doing it yet.. Thats another reason why I think it becomes distored like that..

Lmao...you are in every thread. ..jesus
'9 files can stretch to any size, from any size. I've worked on ones 4px before, its a pain but its possible. That leaves a 2px area to work. That's how android works. So if its too small, make it bigger. Patch, recompile
