Transparent Notification Bar - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I'm running Deck's ICS Alpha 8 with Nova Prime on my Evo. Is there any way short of flashing a different ROM to make the notification bar's black background either transparent or not exist at all?
Thanks for any help.

You should be able to change the transparency value of statusbar_background.png in systemUI.apk. I've done it easily on many roms. ICS is a little different when it comes to the systemUI but it should still work. I can try for you if you want just send me the systemUI.apk if need be

[Q] Font Color on Status Bar

Im working on a theme, and i've successfully themed the status bar, but i need to know how to change the color of the font on the status bar and in the drop down menu to black. I can't seem to find what lines to edit in the status_bar.xml using my hex editor. Any help would be greatfully appreciated. Thanks.
Go check out the vibrant themes section.. I have a sticky for metamorph.. There is a tutorial how to manually change xmls for font color...
I'm going to tell you u couldn't get the clock to change in the vibrant.. i could change the date but not the clock.. We have actually changed everything but the time...
Tmo did something with our framework so it may just be the vibrant but idk...
God luck..any questions pm me

You are looking for lines 502 dateview, 513 mSpnlabel, & 514 mPlmnlabel

[MOD] for Skyraider Zeus *statusbar enable transparency*

Cooked this for Skyraiders Zeus preview: fixes the annoying ghosting icon effect that occurs when using custom sense skins that have transparent status bars like the revolution skin. Just enables transparency, doesn't make your status bar transparent unless skin has it.
*flash in recovery
*flashed over the free scrolling app drawer mod from bamf's site with success
*thanks to Ihtfp69 for a great rom!

I tried both in SR Zeus, and for some reason, the cell signal is not GB. Is there any way to fix that??
Plus, if you use this with Andy's transparent with green secondary text, they cancel each other out.

1 doesn't change anything but enable transparency, the other adds the GB icons but for some reason cell signal won't change. Tried 3 different sets of icons in UOT kitchen and same thing...? I don't mind it, the time is white as well so... Yes this will override And break a transparent notifications drop down, I might be able to use his modded framework files to cook another one with this..

I really thought it looked good, but I couldn't use them together.

[Q] Notification Bar Help

I am running the rooted stock rom 4.54.651.1 & would like to change my notification bar icons (battery, signal, etc) to the gingerbread green theme. Can someone here help me out or point me in the right direction on where to go. Thanks.
You have to change out the pngs in systemui, framework-res
Tapa away from a galaxy far away
Use an app called metamorph. Its way easier then what that guys talking about.

You can also try using UOT Kitchen, just need to need to upload the required files from your phone and it should make a zip that you can flash to change your notification.

Transparent Status bar in EL29.

I'm trying to find out what files I should mod for the status bar. I know for a fact it's an XML inside statusbar.xml of SystemUI, the image itself (status_bar_background.9.png in the drawable-hdpi) and then a smali edit. I just need to know how to edit the smali to get transparent status bar. I'm really trying to get a MIUI theme going for stock TW roms on EL29.
Any help is appreciated.

Unless you modify the touchwiz view you can't go transparent with tw as there is nothing drawn under the launhcer.

It's been done for ek02. I'm hoping there's a way for it on el29. Worst case, it could be enabled on other launchers like go launcher, or adw.

I was doing some searching but didn't come up with anything besides reloaded.apk but is their any other way to make the status bar transparent on Cm9?

i was actually wondering this exact same thing earlier. I know on GB you had to mod the statusbar.xml to get it to work. I wonder if ICS still requires this or if you replacing the .png for the status bar with a transparent one would work.

It would be nice to get a modded system UI.apk that would do this hopefully some one could help us out
