[REQ][Theme] Dynamic Navbar coloring? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

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!

[SOLVED] Multimod in Epic Blue [Batt% Mod + Fascinate Music Player Mods]

If anyone knows who put out these great mods, I wish to give credit to where it is due. These are NOT my mods, a combined mod would be a big help.
This mod moves the time and date of the TWlockscreen down as to not interfere with the music player pull down from the Fascinate, it also modifies the coloring of the Music Player controls for both the lockscreen and status bar from lame purple to Epic Blue. And finally it adds in battery status by 1% increments.
UPDATE: kab0b0's work to get 2 mods combined ROCKED and solved one of the stupid purple backgrounds, I have now taken it a step further and managed to find both of the horribly lame purple backgrounds for the music app (lockscreen and status bar) and have modified them both to a more Epic Blue. I have uploaded this file. Again I take no credit for either of the Mods themselves (BOTH AWESOME, hence the need for combining), it was kab0b0's work that got us both combined. I just tweaked some colors, pm me if you wish to change them further and I can give you the specific files I had to change in order to get it working if you like.
I'll look at it tonight when I get out of work if someone don't beat me to it

If you haven't used that clock on the bottom mod it screws up your lockscreen pretty bad. If you still wanna use it though I can combine these mods for sure when I get off work tonight.
If you're just wanting the lockscreen mod for use with the music player, I made a new version that just moves the clock down and doesn't mess up your lockscreen. I can combine that with the other mod if you'd prefer.

Haha no problem. Actually, I'll look into that color change. I have a feeling I know exactly what needs done. Err but don't quote me on that lol.
Here, I rolled those two into one. I managed to get the background color changed on the pulldown menu from the notification bar but have yet to find the one from the lockscreen sorry. I'll keep hunting it down.
Here ya go http://www.mediafire.com/?d39dbjyhblg302k
awesome i was looking for this also!
i flashed this and it works great but it also turned the startup sound back on. anyway to fix this and keep it off?
Looks like I was beat to the punch

Does this mod include the fascinate music app?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
It does not include the actual music player.. Not sure why it would enable startup sound but I'll take a look after work!
hey, sorry if I sound like a total noob to this stuff, but how do you install the mod once you download it on the phone?
edit: nvm, i get it now
Awesome work. is it possible to push the clock down more so the disc doesn't overlap it?

Yeah that'd be pretty easy I'll have something tomorrow.
Thank you so much. This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. Was more annoyed with the overlapping of the clock than the color, but appreciate both now that they are changed. Great work.
Thanks for doing this kab0b0! Your work is appreciated!
Pics plz.

Is there a way to get this to work with some of the battery percentage mods? I want to run one of the circle battery percentage themes from this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=793805
and every time I flash your fix for the music player, it reverts back to the plain jane version at the top of the link I provided. And every time I flash the circle version, it gets rid of your mod. Can we not have both?
Edit: NM, I did it myself. I am going to attach the zip file I created here if anyone else is interested, but first a word of caution. I am not a developer and I have no clue if what I did will work on your device or not. Works fine for me though. All I did was replace the PNG files in the OP's framework-res.apk res/drawable-hdpi folder with the ones I extracted from the link I provided above. Seems to work fine for me, but again, no clue what I am doing here.
Version B of the Circle Battery.

Each one of these mods is done in the framework. They flash over each other. Samething with a theme. I'll see about incorporating this into my theme

Thanks for this awesome mod is there a way to push the clock down even more or place at the bottom of lockscreen?
Edit: or maybe show me how to change the placement so I can edit it myself thanks

[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.

[REQUEST] a notification bar color changing mod.

I have heard issues that people have been having along the lines of the notification bar burning into their screen. I was wondering if anyone could make a mod for a color cycling notification bar. Not only will it resolve the burn issue but it will also look pretty cool! Also it would make it look awesome when you pull it down the whole tray cycles trough. This would be an awesome mod and would help some people out. Also please make it compatible with CM9
Thanks!
That would be cool however this belongs in q/a dude.

Main differences between Cm10 and Task and Ktoonsez

Hi all.
I am using Cm10 and have been for awhile but was wondering what the main differences are between CM and Task?
Can anyone clarify this for me?
Thanks a lot

I find AOKP gives you more choices to customize your device.
Would you mind elaborating on that and giving me some examples
If not I totally understand.
Have a great evening

You have more options to mod the UI:
ROM Control- you can get nav bar like in nexus
change battery icon style, color
disable or custom boot animation
change toggle style and layout
add brightness bar to statusbar
enable face down audio mode when u put phone face down it would go to silent or vibrate
and more
lots of goodies that in cm10 you have to custom install
I find cm10 to be smoother than aokp

Interesting, seems like there are quite a few extras and worth the trial. The only think i see missing from CM10 is the additional 2 shortcuts from the lock screen (not a huge deal for me anyways)..
I'm curious though, how would one use ROM control with nav bar like in nexus (since S3 already has meny and back capacative)? Just wondering how it may be used..
Thanks again

Some people are used to the nav bar, maybe if they're coming from a Galaxy Nexus or something. I don't find it useful at all, because as you said, the S3 already has a menu, back, and home button. Also, you'll lose a bit of screen space by using them. Hope this helps!

Need help with a widget

Hi everybody. I have a few questions and i was hoping someone here can help.
Right now I'm using jellybam rom 4.1.2 and dori kernel.
I was going for a minimalist home screen but i dont know how to make it work.
1. I want to use the PA extended desktop feature - i.e: no status bar.
2. I want to have all my notifications pop up with reply/dismiss options
3. I want to create a text only toggles widget ( kind of like minimalist text).
Right now i managed to make the popups work using an external app (notify plus) but even that is acting up after a few uses and when i do use it the status bar still keeps all the notifications - eventually making the phone slow down fromm the overload.
Does anyone have an idea what can i do?
Thabks in advance
