Custom (transparent) status bar running LeeDrOiD? - HTC One X

Running LeeDrOiD 6.2.0 and GO Launcher (other launchers have been tried), is there any way I can make the status bar transparent or even solid black as the gradient bar kind of ruins my theme at the moment.
All the theming/modding links here seem to say they mess about with systemUI.apk which could screw up the ROM.
Removed Sense when installing if that helps.

Would absolutely adore a fully transparent status bar.

Seems there's only 2 of us interested but can anyone help or put my mind at rest and say it can't be done?

You can try this, should only inject transparent statusbar into your SystemUI.
Dont know, if it works with another Launcher than Sense, so dont forget to make a Nandroid-Backup before flashing!!!

Thanks for the suggestion. This mod changes the status bar in apps and the lockscreen but not Go Launcher home screens.
Will keep searching...

O.K., then GoLauncher uses another statusbar-background.png than Sense (using the one in SystemUI)
Dont know how to change it in GoLauncher

let me see what i can do.....
no that hard to do
EDIT : upload me your go launcher.apk , because market is giving me french version only...

Just in case anyone is interested, at some point GO must have implemented custom status bar support and it can be found here;
Menu (from home screen) > Preferences > Advanced settings > Support transparent status bar
I'm now running ViperX but I'm sure this would work across the board as long as your ROM supports and gives the option to change status bar transparency.

Need Help with DIY-theme (Good in Red for CM6)

I have been working through the night and all weekend so far to learn how to make my own theme based off of CM6 Nightly builds, but I need some help. I made some changes but can't find where these might be found.
I somehow made a change so that now the time and all notifications that appear at the top are in black letters. This also goes the same for the notifications that appear in the pull down menu. Anyone know what icon would be causing this? See pics below.
Also when I turn on the GPS and wifi, the gps and wifi icons doesn't appear at the top. Anyone know what icons I should be looking for?

Forgot to add: I give full credit to all those who came up with the Red themes that I pulled bits and pieces from. I used many sources that I can't remember their names now, but if they want me to specifically name them, let me know and I will.
Dude if you are working in from CM6 (an AOSP build) then the taskbar is white with black letters. Thats how it is by default. You just made the statusbar black, so now it doesn't show up very well (correct me if I am wrong).
Anyway, I believe there is an option in CM6 settings to change the color of text on the statusbar. Or, you can go into framework-res.apk/res/layout/statusbar.xml and change the hex code for the <TextView> elements.
Also, all the statusbar icons are in framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdmi.

HTC Sense 4.0 custom launcher transparent notification bar
Hello, When i got a HTC One X i got bored of the HTC Sense launcher after a week or so, so i downloaded Nova and i noticed that the transparent notification bar is no longer there, making the homepage of your phone look ugly compared to how it looks with HTC Sense launcher. I believe that it might be the phone thinks that the launcher is an app therefore it loses the transparency like with all apps,
If you have the knowledge of coding or know anyone who does that owns a HTC One X please could you ask them if there is anything they could do to make the notification bar transparent on custom launchers?
I was running an ICS rom few months back on my HTC Desire HD and the rom had an option where you could select the transparency of the notification bar, but it wasn't sense.​
The problem with sense is that by default the opaque status bar has a gradient, which looks really ugly on most launchers.
When running an AOSP/AOKP based ROM, I actually mostly prefer it to be opaque because it looks nice.
SlimROM has an option to set the transparency level for the status bar. But it does have a few artifacts, as you can see below:
With transparency:
Without transparency (how I prefer to use it):
And BTW, did you actually make that graphic just to show what you meant?
Looks really pretty. Could you post both of those wallpapers please?

I'm a perfectionist, and I was bored ;-) besides I want to show what I mean.
As for the 1st wallpaper that's something htc is using but I can't find it, second one should be included with all sense wallpapers

Hi all !
I would like to do the same thing.
I'm currently on Viper X and using Apex launcher. There's an option in ViperX which allow you to set transparency on home or on applications.
It's seems the first option doesn't work or is dedicated to sense. When I modify it, it's doesn't change anything.
The second option allow you to set transparency but the status bar is transparent on home AND on applications...
Is there an other solution ?
Thanks

Thanks a Lot for all the support towards the work.
The status bar will only change in case of a MIUI Rom , and would never change in Stock ROM.

This is not serious it was me who had misunderstood : P
No issues Buddy. Other than the Status bar , you can use it freely like any other Launcher.
Hello people. I tried it on my FoxHound ROM. But I don't really like it so I uninstall it. Everything returns fine but for the lock screen I can't get back to my original one and thus screwing my lock screen. How now?

[Q] NE6 Transparent Statusbar

Hey, I've noticed that since I updated to NE6, the status bar on many apps is transparent, or blends with the top of the app, For example:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
My question is this:
Why do some apps have the transparent status bar, such as Titanium Backup, Drives, Messaging, and others, but other apps do not?
Also, is there a way to make other apps conform to the transparent status bar?

I think that the NE6 transparency as depicted in your post looks a lot better than
if it was 100% fully transparent. It looks kinda "3D'ish" if you know what I mean.
The reason some of the apps don't/can't use the transparency effect or don't use it properly
is due to the fact that some apps (mostly from the playstore) are not designed to be modified
by other 3rd party apps like the app you use to create your transparent status bar.
The better built/designed 3rd apps can and do transparency very well though.
Good luck!

I think you misunderstand me. I did not modify anything. This is basically stock NE6. (Effortless ROM) He listed no such mods.

Can confirm. On stock ne6 here and it does it.

[Q] Change navigation bar icons in the Theme app?

Hi guys, I've been trying to figure out how to change the icon of the navbar for a few days now, still have no clue. It would be nice to have the Stock Android look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I see some theme on the market which have the navbar icons changed, so I assume that it is possible to some options (which I don't know about) in the Theme app to do that without rooting my M9, right?
Thanks in advance
Create a Theme here under Maker Pro
That allows you to change all icons and navbar stuff. I think it does anyway.

Yeah I tried it a few days ago, it does let you change icons of a lots of popular apps, but I don't see any option for the navbar whatsoever

You have to use the pro -themer on the page.
Then nav icons and the clock widget have their own steps in the process.
Now... if someone can tell me how to hack the google icons inn instead of the choices htc give me... (they have one that is similar to stock but square is home and two circles indicate the task switcher. (and there is an ugly line on the back key))
i still can't find it
