[Q] AOSP status bar icons?

I'm looking for the status bar icons that come with vanilla Gingerbread. Like the ones in CM.
Also, would like to know where I should copy them to.

I tried looking inside the CM7 zip, but couldn't find anything that looked familiar.
Anyone knows if it can be extracted somehow from the CM7 ROM and be used with the stock rom?

Yes, theyre in system/systemui.apk

Thanks! Found it. It's actually: system/app/systemui.apk
The folder structure is obviously different from the stock rom. Anyone have an idea how I replace the existing icons?

Use 7zip to open the apk and replace them in system/res folder i think it is

There is no res folder inside "system". There's a res folder in the root, but there's only one file called "encryption"

I've found it. I tried modifying the stock SystemUI.apk by replacing the icons in it with the ones from the CM7 rom. I then replaced the original SystemUI.apk with the modified one using Root Explorer, but by doing it the SystemUI process force closed leaving me with no status bar. It remained without status bar even after reboot.
So I guess this is not as easy as it seemed to be. I don't want to mess around with the root folder anymore, so if anyone has a flashable zip that can replace the status bar with AOSP icons I would greatly appreciate it!

Really easy to do, next time change the permissions then you wont get FC but if you have the odex version of the update heres the link to get the icons. Its by mikeyinid towards the bottom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20377172

[REQ] Stock Image Icons

Anybody have the stock image icons for the Phone, Contacts, and Messaging apps that they can provide? Most themes alter them when theming the apps and the altered icons don't look as good. :/ What I'd like to do is switch them back to stock after the theme themes them to have the apps themed with the original icons. Any help is appreciated.
the screenshot shows which ones I'm looking for circled.

You can rip the icons from the stock rom. do u know how to do basic theming? You can use ninija morph.

Transparent Notification Bar

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.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

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

Transparent status bar cm9

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

theme editing

Can someone help me or point me in the right direction for editing a theme? I want the Cobalt theme to have transparent status bar, transparent system backgrounds(dialer, settings...etc) just like the HoloGlass Beta but with all the nice stuff from Cobalt(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dustinb.theme.cobalt) (HoloGlass https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mix3d.theme.hologlass.beta)

I'm still trying to figure this out, I've decompiled both themes, copied like 50 images from cobalt(signal, wifi...etc) to hologlass overwriting the originals, edited preview and changed the default wallpaper then recompiled, signed it, installed but the only thing that I can tell is different is the default wallpaper, everything else is the same, the preview didn't even work, just shows a red X....I don't understand.

If it's a system app you don't want to sign it. You need to preserve the original signatures if I remember correctly. Utilities like apk multi tool can do this for you when it's time to recompile. Could that be the problem?

I didn't know a theme was a system app?

Well I was wrong, It mostly worked, most things changed except WiFi and signal bars(Which was one of the main features I wanted from cobalt) Maybe it would be easier just to take the transparent stuff from holo glass and put it into cobalt? Idk but I still need help with this...

It depends on what you're theming. I'm just guessing but the status bar is probably in the SystemUI.apk or SecLauncher2.apk. so to theme it would require modding the correct system app.
