I'm trying to delete battery icon profiles from ROM Control - IceColdSandwich. I know that icons are in SystemUI but somewhere there, there is a list of them and I want that deleted too, because if I delete icons only they do not show up in the menubar but the list is still intact. It's somewhere in xml files, I tried baksmali both systemui and romcontrol but I'm not fluent with code and I can't find it. Any help would be useful.
Also anyone knows how to set the clock color to #ffd3d3d3 and center it? I know I can do that in ROM Control easily, the thing is I want it set like that by default. When I flash the ROM I want it to be set like that from the start.

Hey guys,
i want to edit the quick settings in the notification bar. I don't want to flash anything, i want to edit it by myself, so i can put in the stuff i want.
can somebody tell me, witch things i have to edit and where i find them. Or is this too complicated?
(I'm using 2.13 jikantaruROM - Android 1.3.5)
You can only if you create a rom with the desired features in it, then you can also add the quick settings to power menu.
If you install CM7, you can have a quick settings bar at the top.
I'm still s-on and use widgets for this. Go Launcher with the Go widget works great!
Hello.
What I want to try and do is make a system .apk files invisible (in other words, they don't so up in the applications drawer).
Its for the TSM Parts Mod I'm running (which had the apps already hidden), however I want to update the Semaphore Manager plus include Voodoo Control (I've already got TSM Parts launching it).
Could somebody please tell me how its done?
Thanks in advance.
You'll have to edit AndroidMenifest.xml.

Can you tell me a little bit more, like what settings to change?
Kronic BlueMod V 4.3 / V5.1 for 4.2 framework
- i posted v5 on a reply... wasn't thinking it's on page 1.
- it is normal for first boot to take a long time after flashing mod, during this time the system is updating the cache partitions new drawables etc because system files changed. 1-3 minutes maybe. if it starts to take really long then flash backup zip or reflash the rom you were using to patch the files back to normal, this shouldn't really happen though unless you get currupt download or flash to incompatible rom.
for bell based v20f, also works on most other v20f but some icons may need to be swapped.
- to backup original ui, make a copy of this zip, open the copy with 7-zip, replace /system/app/systemui.apk and /system/framework/framework-res.apk with the CURRENT ones from your phone (adb pull them or something) then rename the copied zip originalUI.zip and put it on your sdcard, in case something goes wrong you can reflash it to go back to default.
- to install just flash the zip in recovery mode, do not wipe cache partitions, the android OS will update them when it sees changed files.
enjoy!!!!
p.s. i don't take responsibility for you breaking your phone.
if you aren't confident in moding these files, but you want something changed just post what it is and i'll do my best to provide you with a personal patch. if there is an icon i missed on the rom you use, let me know and i'll update. (many roms use differant icons)
- if this doesn't work with your rom you can request that i write one specifically for your rom and i may do it.
i do intend on adding other color versions of this so feel free to request colors.
this UI mod is intended to make the amazingly stable and battery friendly v20f a real option by making it pretty.
other additions i recommend are:
power toggles (has a homescreen widget that add's reboot menu with recovery option and bypasses reflashing on reboot by this i just mean a faster reboot by using a root reboot command instead of stock reboot which takes forever)
pocket skip track (allows you do add screen off track switching functionality to stock roms.)
mx camera (gives you hdr camera options without removing 1080p video capabilities like cm10.1)
apex launcher (jelly bean style launcher with lots of options)
exdialer ( a good free dialer with some really nice theme's i bought a payed one for 2 dollars or something that's black and blue)
MHL works on stock roms (micro usb -> hdmi -> tv)
the rom i recommend to run with this is
the legend Ho!No!'s v20f mod 2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2185178
happy texting !!!
the other feature of this is it should theoretically run smoother than stock files due to less compression.
i will also be posting email.apk LGMms.apk LGCalendar.apk with some better black theme's
this mod is not new but i'm just trying to make a universal one for v20f now, i already have alot of happy users.
--added in 4.3 is standard black background with blue text (on title bar) for any apps or widgets that use default framework values, so far on mine it works for quite a few.
i don't think this will work on roms that aren't deodexed
Kronics BlueMod V5
V5.1 has a few divider fixes and the tab for slider panels/quicksettings in status_bar_expanded
the lockscreen is for pattern lock check attachment if u wanna see it
the screenshot for the quicksettings panel is from before the cyan color was fixed to neon blue
screenshot 16 is V4.3 the others are 5.0, in 5.1 the bottom tab color is fixed on screenshot 26
in 5.0+ BlueMod tag is removed i decided the average person probably doesn't want it.
in 5.1 the bottom bar in expanded panel color is fixed
- i did more work to framework-res to change more of the default backgrounds and font color's for 3rd party apps and such, there are a few system apps that i think have to be modded individually because it didn't apply for them, but you should see some of your apps starting to inherit the theme.
for the pattern lock mod, i disable the showing of the lines because it's extremely hard to mod, it's done in some equation in a smali file somewhere that is differant location on most phones, until someone that has a strong grasp of smali that uses LG phones takes a look i can't mod that
reserved for secondary files
if you want to learn to do your own mod's, or fix something i missed on your rom, the tutorial can be found here:

Kronics BlueMod v5
This has only been tested on the rom with 4.2 framework v20f, if someone wants to try flashing it on a non updated framework v20f and let me know if it works that is cool, if not i'll do it when i get a chance, if u do it backup your original files to a flash first.
i already fixed the highligher on the bottom tab for settings panel that is slightly the wrong color (greenish) coming in next update
i'm currently investigating the issue that is causing long reboots on every reboot instead of the first one after install. it doesn't seem to be affecting system performance but i know that is probably annoying people so i'm looking into fixing it.
edit i wiped all drives and installed the rom without the mod and it was only 15 seconds or so faster boot, i think this rom just has a long boot (the 4.2 framework one)
MAY NOT WORK ON OTHER PHONES THAN LG p930/p935/p936. If you want to try it on another phone be sure to make a backup first just in case it doesn't work.
If your phone uses xhdpi folders than you can port this theme very easily just ask me how, if no one wants to i won't bother explaining.
Basically I think the white status bar is terribly boring and dull if you want to change this theme into another color post here or pm me i can give you instructions. I will be making these a full theme probably soon but that one will change almost everything which some people might not want. See the screenshots for more info, if you don't like it after you've installed you can flash a cm update or reflash last update and it'll go back to normal, if you install an update and want to switch back to that theme the same flashable should work unless they change some of the framework for the status bar (doesn't happen often). When that happens i can update this easily so just watch for an update.
Install instructions.
1) optional. --> make nandroid backup.
2) flash zip file
3) optional. --> wipe cache
4) reboot
- also removes compression on framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk.
- zipaligned for proper Ram performance; won't slow down your UI drawing like some themes.
- playstore status bar icons will be added in the full theme (they aren't in the files included in this patcher, they are in the playstore apk)
- removed annoying emergency call only reminders from the notification tray
- removed carrier label from status bars (except under the data icon in quicksettings if you chose to have that icon there) but took out the extra line at the bottom with it as it's useless.
- removed transparency from qs/notification tray
- themed recent apps screen
- please report any bugs or icons that i missed (sometimes if you use a feature i don't i may have missed something and not realized it)
-classes.dex files are not modified, this means the system is just as secure as original cyanogenmod. If you don't believe me you can use 7-zip to restore all the files in each apk except "res" folder and "resources.arsc". sometimes resources.arsc doesn't get modified either. If you decide to do this i recommend zipaligning the apk again.
- if you want the a link to the kernel i use and my settings to get your benchmark up like mine just ask.
- with the default cm kernel and no OC i was only getting like 10500 or something.

I am currently working on making a custom rom, and I was wondering if anyone had instructions for manually add custom navbar shortcuts, for example to launch an app, or change the volume. thanks
Other have managed to add media controls and volume buttons ...you could probably just port the files from the system ui of that mod .... A user posted it a while back. Search this section and youll find it
