Thanks for the tip. Does this work on icons though? I messed around and couldn't figure it out. Are there instructions anywhere for it?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

it lets you customize all kinds of things related to your notification bar. If you're wanting to upload custom icons, I don't think you can do that, but you have a bunch to choose from.
If your rom is supported on the site, you can pick it from the list. if not, you can upload your framework-res.apk to have it edited

[REQ]Solid black notification pulldown bar

I have searched and not been able to find this anywhere. Anyhelp would be appreciated. The only way I would know how to install would be through clockwork. I am running the supernova rom. Thanks

Correct me if I'm wrong anyone, but I think flashing just the pulldown bar would remove your theme along with it.

If you mean something like this pic I post, you MAY be able to pull it from Bionix Black theme. That's what I am running. I haven't seen this on any other theme that I can remember

Take your ROM zip and open it with WinRAR or 7zip, navigate to system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi/
You will find a file in there called statusbar_background.9.png
That is your status bar, color it black and stick it back into the ROM zip and reflash the ROM.
Doesn't get much easier than that...

@Paul Thanked and Thanks

9patch pngs need to be compiled though... but just changing the name of a regular one and sticking it in there might work, but I'm not sure how it will handle the stretching when it tries to decompile

I have been out of town all weekend and haven't had time to try out the suggestions. They seem difficult to me, I will try when I have some time to spend on on it. Thanks everyone for your help.

Please close! [Theme] [Update 12.13.2011] Whisper for Juggernaut {Now a beta release}

MOD PLEASE CLOSE THREAD.. I am not in the mood for bs drama....
Whisper is now in Beta release... v1 has been posted along with new screen shots!
So i just picked up my GS2, and decided to start a theme for Juggernaut... Looking around i really only found ports of other themes, so i thought why not start something new... So, Whisper was born...
What to expect is a nice clean theme... With the general understanding i do not create themes that have your normal look... I like to be different, so this will probably only meet the wants of those with the same sort of outside the box thinking...
I am going to start work on a less lavish... More mainstream theme as it seems thats what most want... I know my themes are very one off... And not for everyone...
Whats been done you ask?
- Accurate battery mod now fully pushed (% showing on a battery rather then romanns tweak)
- Edits made to download/volume bar xmls to blue
- Edits to lock-screen appearance...
- Massive edits to framework and systemui... MUCH more to come as i clean the theme up...
- New menu's all around...
More... Just, not on the tip of my tongue at the moment...
On and on... But really its a good basic start to things... Hence beta v1... Its much more pulled together then Whisper Alpha release
On the block to be done...[/SIZE][/COLOR][/B]
- Continue to touch all framework and systemui images/xmls
- Phone, contacts, mms, widgets... Themes...
Ooooodles of good stuff...
How to get her done...
- Download Whisper Beta v1
- Boot into CWR
- Nandroid
- Flash Whisper
- Reboot
I have also provided the image thats shown on my wallpapar... You need to play with things a little to get it lined up correctly, but as you can see it works out well...
I dunno, thats it really... More to come in the next week... Lots more i hope... PLEASE feel free to provide feedback...​[/CENTER]

When you go to wallpaper and select the image... crop it down and to the left... I will add it to the framework next release... and or give poeple a black status bar so they can have any wallpaper without having it look off with the current status bar

You know its always nice to see a new themer come to the forum. You kinda bashed Qasizia for doing ports and said you didnt have much to say. Well i have some things to say about your theme. Try something original instead of using uot. And your icons for your lockscreen were originally done by me. They have been around for awhile in all different colors but i did the original. So before you go claiming to be all original check your facts. But with that being said I have no hard feelings and if I can help in any way let me know.

Bashing him would have been his theme sucked... I never said that... I simply didn't have much to say about it as my themes tend to be one off and outlandish... Thats my personal preference ... I also said it was nice to see him post his own theme ... I wouldn't have said it if it wasnt true...
Nothing in my theme came. from uot.. I compile all my work by hand... everything other then the charging xml that I have had since I was a noob... and only use as a base to compile before i rewrite it for ultra smooth animations... was done by me... Not sure where you get anything uot in my theme... but I can promise you uot had nothing to do with my work... not to mention uot can't do what I did with my coloring or images... but you can go with that... be my guest...
Lets me finish by stating I went so far as to pm the hulk theme dev and offer assistance with anything he needed... I was very nice about it...
You have an issue past this, PM me

IM Creating A Custom Rom Which Is Coming SOON!

This past week i have been learning mostly about theming, using apk manager, and using sdk tools and i already have a custom rom that still looks like stock, but has the init.d tweaks, build prop tweaks, its debloated, it has the sony bravia engine and also working mms thru wifi, but im trying to figure out how to add the advanced power menus, the 14 toggles, and xloud into it. Would anyone in here help me? I would really appreciate it and after i get those Mods into my custom rom, next would be the basic theming which is kinda easy but messing with the .9 images and patching it is what looks to be the hardest part from it all because i havent tried messing with that part yet.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA

14 toggle mod--> look for the mod on the I727 forum, then add it to your rom. It's that simple.
extended power menus--> same thing, it's a mod somewhere on XDA. Just make sure you get a version that works for the rom you're building
theming-->you are on the right track

Thanks for the advice Alienz

The 14 toggle mod from the I727 will work on GB roms but not on the new ICS roms...
The power menu mod needs to be incorporated into your framework..

Yeah the rom is based on 2.3.6 gingerbread and i have just put the 14 toggles not that long ago and its working perfectly. The advanced power menus i havent found yet ive been searching the forums but cant seem to find it. Today i was doing the theming but those .9patches gives me nothing but problems. I did a few .9 pngs but when i compile it back (systemUI.apk) it doesnt seem to save and gives me errors. I probably seem to know what i did wrong so later on i'll be working on it!

The only thing I can think of, is asking one of the Devs with that function already implemented into his/their ROM.

UPDATE: i have xloud working, gps locks quickly, i have bravia engine in it which made vids look better and clearer, i have the 14 toggles, mms over wifi is fully working, and the UI and scrolling is fast! If im missing anything else let me know. What i need to implement is the advance power menus but i still at this point cant find it anywhere. Then whenever i add the power menus mod next would be the theming which im really not good at because im having a lot of trouble on the theming part.
