Transparent status bar cm9 - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

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

Transparent status / nav bar - LTE / 4.03

I'd really love a transparent status bar and navigation bar. It looks like this has been done here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1388554&page=12
Unfortunately this does not work on 4.03 and in addition there are differences between LTE and CDMA so the mod would need to be LTE specific in my case.
Does anybody know of such a mod that exists? I've searched high and low. Thanks!

Thanks for the statement, now you mind sharing the info....gotta screen shot, where's the mod? I assume you're running the GSM version?
me wantz this too.... !!!!
Works for me on 4.0.3 - you need to put in some work yourself if you dont want the percentage battery, tho. ROM needs to be deodexed afaik.
Frysee, Is that a flashable CWM file? and does it work with LTE/Toro Nexus? Thanks in advance... Realy looking forward for this mod.
Will this work on revolution HD 4.0.2? Also can toy flash it through cmw?
Would love to know if this works on the CDMA nexus as well, specifically running Axiom 2.4, with battery percentage and search button in nav bar enabled
Is there something with only the clear Navigation bar? I dont want to mod the status bar
does this work on gummy rom?

I'm on milestone 2 and it has softkey mod also. Idle on rootzwiki did for me. He is awesome. He has others posted too with softkey mods built in you should go look. He may be able to custom make one for you like he did me. Here's a pic.

softkey mod is easy as long as you have the PNGs.
hmmm. maybe the notification bar and navigation bars are also just a couple of PNGs?
can anyone point me in the right direction? I think I can do this myself if I know which files to replace

Idle has then built into one mod. So get the transparency plus choice of different softkeys. You can ask him how he did it.

I tried to do the mod with apk multitool and decompiling the systemui.apk myself last night but I kept losing the nav bar and not bar, then I tried to do Idle's mod and I still kept losing them despite it being built for AOKP m2, so if you figure out if its just a png replacement let us know!
I been at this all night; couldnt get it going at all...just kept losing everything. And here I thought I just didnt know what i was doing. Let me know if anyone figures it out.
Thanks

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 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.

there are some 3rd party apps that can use for a custom status bar like statusbar + or something like that, but you cant tweak the existing one w/o root
Thanks I appreciate the info
Andy has some really nice looking ICS themes.

Cm10.1 RC3 Navbar dpi change & transparent statusbar

Many of you like me love the features that other roms give but want the stability and battery life of pure cm10.1 official...but i really like if they give options like aokp to center clock with date and resize navbar...they don't so i edit framework-res.apk to change navbar dpi to 36px...i didnt create a flashable zip so you have to manually replace the file with any root explorer!!
Download RC3
I can add more tweaks if anyone interesting...the least i can do!! feel free to ask and if i can i could add them...
Thx, I'll try it right now.

I've been looking for this for a while. It would be better if we could have transparent status bar and an extra option to change the size of it. It's unconfortable to change all the time the file.
I don't why these functions aren't included in CM10.1
edit:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2260772
This ROM includes this feature. Maybe I'll switch to it but I do like the offical CMs and updates.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/pikachukaki/files/SystemUI.apk/download i add center clock for cm10.1 forgive me that i haven't test it cause im testing rootbox rom now...if anyone having problems i will remake it but test it firstly but i think its ok!!!
Does this mod work on stock also?

Transparent statusbar needs editing jar files and for a rom that have updates every day its a bit dificult to keep up!
Did anyone else use this with todays RC? Didn't work for me, the navbar just completely went away.

While changing which file framework or systemui?
anyway i d/w rc1 even that it isn't official release...i remake the files also i make (try) i never was good on creating flashable zips and i add transparent 100% statusbar check 1st post
The zip worked for me on RC1.
The status bar goes to black or white when going into apps, that's normal though right? I haven't really used that feature before.
