[Q] Couple of MIUI questions

I really like my first impressions with this new ROM.
1. After the initial install I switched over to launcher pro and lost the transparency
in the notification bar. Is there any way to get this back?
2. I am running the Koush test kernel. I have done quite a bit of research to try and find the perfect kernel combination, but there seems to be a lot of debate. I am obviously looking for speed and battery life coupled with the ability to listen to music while the screen is off without any skipping.
3. This is probably just a matter of time until this happens, but is there an alternate theme that changes all the menu's from white to black?
4. Are there any known battery notification skins that are compatible with MIUI? Looking for a circle battery icon.
Sorry for the list.

Warning: I'm a complete noob... so someone should confirm.
But from what I read on launcher pro's forums, LP doesn't extend the wallpaper through the area where the notification bar is. Is your bar black when you set to completely transparent?

I couldn't even find a setting for transparency of the notification bar.

If you are running launcher Pro... menu to prefs to appearance settings to dock background

[Q] Moving power bar in notification tray?

From what I've seen of ICS, it doesn't look like the power bar is part of the notification tray, which is something most oems are doing. Do I honestly need a custom ics rom just to have this essential feature?

huh? the battery indicator is right where its always been...

At a guess, I'd say he's talking about the Power Control widget thing, which, for example, Samsung have incorporated into the notification shade in touchwiz.

There is a shortcut to the settings but no individual toggles. You'll need to do an additional screen press I'm affraid.

I dont understand why they dont include it in the notification bar.....and dont forget that in Nexus we did not have the option to delete homescreens...there are 5 screens by default.

Im sure the cyanogenmod team will fix that rather quickly.

there are apps that add those toggles in the notification bar like elixer2 and widgetsoid if not mistaken

There are, but they're not quite the same.
Nevertheless. Either Cyanogenmod or a modified Framework.apk should be able to fix this easily once you have unlocked/rooted your phone.

There are several good notification toggle apps in the market that behave just like CM7 style. I even have one running on my stock android Honeycomb tablet.
Those Samsung toggles aren't stock thus wont be included, but there will be workarounds pretty quickly.

[REQ][Theme] Dynamic Navbar coloring?

IHey there, i'm not sure if this is the right category to post it, since it's a request/idea/theme related, but anyways here's the thing.
The Navbar, It's nice to use but it looks kinda horrid, not to mention the screen estate loss & Screen Burn-in effect, So i was thinking.
So the idea is :
Can it be that the navigation bar would change color to match that of the app you're running currently? is it attainable? please fill me in
If not, can anyone help me on getting it Transparent (regardless of performance drop, it's okay) because i looked everywhere and i can't find anything about it, Changing it color or making it transparent would do for now until that feature is available (in the next android update or in a Custom ROM like AOKP/PA/CNA.
Thanks in advance ;A;
[Fixed] : ParanoidAndroid added this feature and nailed it, thanks!

Lame!
You are a newbie, aren't you?
Much better solution: Install one of the countless CM based ROMs, click "Expanded Desktop", then the navbar goes away.
Then install "GMD GestureControl". Much better than using this tedious pie navigation.

Maybe he likes cm10 over the other based ROMs off it. So no lame.
And anyway, expanded desktop takes away the notification area as well. One reason I still hate pie. I know I can gesture it up still, just so annoying.

When i was in stock rom i use that instructions..... Because really like pie but i dont wanna lost stock ROM.... Maybe i`m not the only one
And yes...... I use a ROM based in cm

I used the same method on stock to hide the navigation bar, but keep the status bar. This also in combination with lmt launcher. Works perfect indeed and entirely free of charge.
Now I'm on cyanogenmod 10.1 so expanded desktop is actually a better way to hide the navigation bar (in settings you can select to keep the status bar). I prefer lmt launcher over cyanogen's pie though.

Need touchwiz ROM with soft key navbar.

My wife's sgs2 nav bar died. So I flashed slimbean which has a softkey nav bar capability and that rom kicks ass. Problem is that its her phone and she misses touchwiz. Specifically the calendar. So is the anyone out there that can point me to a rom with touchwiz and softkey nav bar, or even better, guide me to a thread that helps me install softkey nav in the Jedi mind trick ROM? Please help guys.

Thanks man, but those are a no go. Tried the first one and its just a pain (it does work in a pinch, just not suitable for daily use). The second one doesn't install nav softkeys, it just allows you to change their properties if the phone already has nav softkeys, which slimbean already has that customization ability baked in.

oo ok scratch that an maybe try this but not promissed but staying on slim but giving her the Touch wiz 5 launcher that way she can still use the stocky look but still have the navbar maybe ???? if not i hate to say it here but you can try out JellyBam on goo.im and in there settings you can download the TW launcher for her or even paranoid since they have the most customization out there and or stable jelly milestone 6 was the stable and true just a thought to try and help

Use whatever rom you like, with the navigation bars you want. Then pay a couple bucks for pure grid calendar widget. Its pretty much the same as the touchwiz Calender widget....plus themes for it.

I would open the phone and see if the ribbon did not pop out. Replacing is expensive( not the keypad, but the screen) as you have to get the screen out and good chance for damaging. Keypad is cheap.

Thanks for the replies. I have actually taken the phone apart and the ribbon cable was in place. Not really interested in a widget either, but it is a nice widget. I did however find this:
