[Q]Remove clock from status bar

Does anyone have the mod that removes the clock from the status bar but shows the time whenever you hold your finger on the status bar? Like what bonsai does. I wanted to put it for the syndicate rom I just flashed. Lost and tired has the mod, but it completely removes the clock from the status bar. I swore I had it before, but I can't find it for the life of me now.
If anyone can help, I'd love you forever.

I think that's cause really the mod is two changes. To remove the clock you need to flash a modded services.jar file. In order to see the clock in the status bar requires you to flash a modded framework-res.apk. Specifically, i believe the file /res/layout/status_bar.xml has been modified to add the clock there. So if you were able to remove the clock that's good for step1. Now, you could try either flashing a bonsai framework-res.apk that has the change or taking that change and moving it into your framework and reflashing. Hope that makes sense. Im assumming you meant for EB13. The process might be a little different for EE03 not sure though.

No cause the changes to policy are linked to the changes in framework-res.apk.
Also frameworks and policy.jar can not be transfered over to other builds ec05-eg22-ect

LOL well of course its not compatible, i wanted to know if it would work & crossing builds didnt even cross my mind, but i think i found something here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194290 but i dunno how to work this into my theme base with 6locks & pulldown animation(made by GituSum)<-->here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1162821 or if its transferable or not bc he has 2 versions eg22/ec05. I have no idea how to dev & im a lil iffy bout it since i cant get apk manager or apk tool to work right for anything i doubt ill be able to do it myself
Edit: or would this conflict with srf1.2's 6locks mod???

FWIW...As I was hoping to achieve something like this myself, here's what I dug up concerning this request.
It requires editing 2 different files in the services.jar for just about any ROM.
1. Remove the clock from the status bar.
The StatusBarPolicy.smali requires these changes:
Code:
--- StatusBarPolicy.smali 2011-08-21 00:58:15.143531002 -0500
+++ StatusBarPolicy2.smali 2011-08-21 00:58:44.775531004 -0500
@@ -831,10 +831,10 @@

This one is thanks to ptfmedic...I checked the changes in the services.jar available on his blog, http://lostandtired.com/.
2. Add the clock by the date when the status bar is expanded.
There's 2 methods for doing this one which both require editing the DateView.smali.
Option 1 This one let's you set a date/time in a FULL, LONG, MEDIUM, or SHORT format.
Option 2 This one allows you to set whatever string you'd like based on the SimpleDateFormat.

[Q] Changing Status bar text color?

Hi guys
I know that this question has been asked 1000+++ times before.
But I can't find a solution for mine in any of those threads.
I'm running AOKP B27 on my Galaxy Nexus and I would like to mod the SystemUI
to my needs. As you might know, AOKP added a feature that you have a weather
window when your status bar is expanded.
That aside, when I expand my status bar, all text is ICS blue.
I want to change that and make all text white.
I've managed to make the carrier text and date white. Now I need the weather text
and all toggles text in white.
Any idea where I can change that? I've searched troughout the many .xml files
in it but I can't find it!
Thanks in advance
diSke

I can't remember if it is in systemui or framework but its a value called "ticker"

Yes I knew that. That's how I changed date and carrier text.
But how do I have to edit the toggles and weather text?
If it's in smali/java, how do I mod that?

Is that the one? It's the second hex value in the document.
Because the first is about panelcolorbackground which I assume has nothing to do with text?

This may/may not be an old thread, but here's what I did. I took and decompiled the SystemUI.apk so I can edit the xml files. I found the styles.xml file in the \res\values folder. I want to change my status bar text to blue instead of grey... I changed all of the @blueholo lines to the #FF1E90FF which is the color I picked. Now, I recompiled, put it on my phone, and before I rename it/get it ready to go, I want to make sure of something... the original apk file is 2.47MB, the new one - only editing a few lines of code - is 1.82MB. Confused as to why just a few lines of code would be almost 1 MB of data, where it should only be a few kb... Is this going to screw something up?? Please, no answers like "Install and find out"... It's a brand new Note 2

[Q] Transparent status bar in CM10?

I've made a transparent status bar in CM9 before, but it seems the statusbar.smali file is no more in CM10. Anyone know how to create the same transparent status bar in CM10.

I am pretty sure Pendo in the Galaxy Nexus section can help you!
He's the master of all transparent statusbar in aosp and CM roms

Although I tend to use dark backgrounds most of the time (so it isn't really that noticeable), this would be nice and is one of the nicest touches in MIUI that I would like to see in CMX. Will keep an eye on this as CMX is quickly becoming my daily driver!

I think it just sets things off nicely - one of the best things in Sense 4.0/MIUI

easy , can someone upload me the systemUI.apk of it and i'll make you TR-top bar..

Oh yes I would love it. Is it possible to change clock, batterie, signal color as well? Probably black or white? (to match with notification center look)

Are you guys talking about the status bar as overlay or that you see the wallpaper behind the bar?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

Bump, would like help with this also.

Hey,
Have gone through the smali for ages and have managed to find the line of code that you would normally change in CM9. The catch is its already what we would normally change it to.
Code:
.line 2152
new-instance v0, Landroid/view/WindowManager$LayoutParams;
const/4 v1, -0x1
const/16 v3, 0x7d0
const v4, 0x800048
const/4 v5, -0x3
invoke-direct/range {v0 .. v5}, Landroid/view/WindowManager$LayoutParams;-><init>(IIIII)V
I found this at SystemUI\smali\com\android\systemui\statusbar\phone and its PhoneStatusBar.smali
Now what!?

On XWLPG it's a combination.
The layout is in SystemUI.apk\res\tw_status_bar_expanded.xml and tw_btn_default_small is the background image for the clear button.

All i would like to do is remove the clear button images so the the clear button when inactive the text is grey as default but the button image is gone and when the clear button is active the clear text white as default but no button image.
I have attached a unmodified systemUI.apk if you could try to do it for me that would be great thanks.

I don't mind guiding you but I'm not doing it for you!
You'll need to learn how to decompile SystemUI.apk (I use Wanam's Apk Manager ICS)
The clear button is laid out in SystemUI.apk\res\layout\tw_status_bar_expanded.xml with a single text colour hard-coded in. The background images are set in SystemUI.apk\res\drawable\tw_btn_default_small.xml
I'd say you'd need to remove the hard coded colour from tw_status_bar_expanded.xml and add the text colour for the different states of the button to tw_btn_default_small.xml whilst also removing the background images from the same lines of code.

[MOD/ HOW TO] SystemUI Tweaks

I ran into a lot of trouble getting SystemUI to recompile due to missing Strings and Styles and whatnot so I'm sharing my fully de/compilable SystemUI. It took a good amount of work getting it to recompile so I hope to save somebody some development time with this release.
I have also:
Removed the StatusBar carrier label,

<TextView android:textSize="15.0dip" android:textColor="#ffffffff" android:gravity="center_vertical" android:id="@id/carrierLabel" android:visibility="gone" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:singleLine="true" [COLOR=Red]android:maxLength="0"[/COLOR] />

You could decompile it and replace the battery images with blank 1px images. Or tweak the code if you're able.

I almost had a heart attact... Renamed SystemUI.apk and copied the modified one and the phone instantly crashed on me... Didn't even rename the odex one.
At least its all fine now, got that stupid AT&T text off my status bar. Thanks!
Now if you could make that clock smaller or take away the AM/PM, I'll be set for awhile until ROMs come our way.

I don't know if this is the right section for it, but please bear with me.
I've noticed that the notification bar goes solid when you use your own wallpaper. If you use the system's included wallpapers, the notification bar is transparent and you see through it to the background wallpaper.
Is there a way to get the notification bar to be transparent while using your own wallpaper? That solid bar cuts off the top part of my images.
Thanks!

There are a bunch of modified SystemUI's in the Themes section with this done, but the easiest way (the way I did it) was to use Nova Launcher. The transparent notification bar has just been lifted from being a Beta feature so it can work with just making sure the right selection is made in the settings.

You can also install xposed framework app with tweakbox module.
