Q: Rom that lets you easily change the status bar? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Is there a rom that lets us easily customize the status bar like MIUI does? Besides the miui rom basically lol

Strongsteve's Blue odexed.
He has a mod available for his rom to customize the pulldown text.

Not sure what particular options your looking for but...
AOKP let's you change clock, battery, and signal icons. You can center clock, change colors, add day of the week, etc. Also many options for pull down. Add to that themes and a plethora of other ROM control options and you have probably the most user customizable ROM by way of built in selections out there.

But can you change the color of the clock and signal also. Because when I had it on my epic 4g touch it wouldnt change the colors. Lol

No, you would have to learn to theme. AOKP and CM10 are your best bet if you want to modify appearance a lot.

Try the AOKP rom. In the settings menu under "rom controls" you can change a lot of things. The satatus bar being one of them. I centered the clock and changed its color to green on mine.

As was already mentioned, no you can't. However, there are many color variants of stock JB via CM10/AOKP themes. So say you want a purple signal/battery status bar icons, all you would have to do is download a purple theme. There is about 300 themes available at the moment I believe, many of them free.

FreeGS3 rom has lots of zips to change the notification bar. There's also this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886656 which has options to change it too. Hope this helps. I've centered my clock, and change a few things on mine.

[Q] Cyan battery mods for CM7 RC2

I am in love with CM7 and the color cyan. But, I want to change the battery icon in the status bar to a circle with a number in the center. A lot of custom themes seem to have it, but they have it in every color but cyan.
I've been watching the threads in the Themes and App section of this forum but to no avail. Does anyone know where I could get a cyan theme with a battery icon in the status bar like that?

Can you make a no glow animation mod. Just have it flash and turn off instead of fade.

Does the clock on the left of the status bar disappear when you have an incoming notification? I ask because the center clock mod I installed from another mod doesn't. The incoming notification shows right over the clock and you can see the clock in the background.

notifications show just just like in the screen shot, if you look at the screen shot you can see that the usb debuging notification is after ( to the right ) of the clock
and like normal when the text of a message come in the entire bar shows only the message like normal
updated OP with a stock softkey color clock on the navbar
sorry i m out of topic

Is it possible to use clock as navbars home button? So clock replaces home but still acts like a home button when it's pressed.

no and to be honest the simply adding the fastglow mod makes it feel a lot quicker. if you havent used it, check it out
Cool mod. Can we get the clock on the left side of the status bar without the hidden menu on the nav bar? Or can you tell me what images to take out of the zip to accomplish this? Thanks!!

lot more than taking or moving stuff from a zip il get around to a left hand version.
edit
the reason i say left handed one is cause i will need to move the menu over to the left, so i can put the clock on thr right
jezz i need to read more throe, i so missed your question
if u want to put the stock menu icon back into the apk (which u can do with a zip archive) then the menu will be back to normal(ish) it will always show tho...

It won't draw the clock inside of a button.key.view
Although I do like the idea, out of time for tonight, I'll dig deeper later

Anyway you can make a JB mod for a search icon. Im so use to pressing search icon to look for apps on my phone.
I'm using the mod for clock in bottom left navbar with right menu, whenever opening my camera/YouTube or any video related I get constant force closing on system ui ...already tried to fix permissions get the same thing

[Q] Hiding the Vibrate Icon in the Status Bar

I was just wondering if there was any setting, option, or even app that will allow me to hide the icon that shows next to my signal icon and shows when the phone is in "Vibrate" mode? I'm kind of a minimalist and this little icon bothers me. I hid the alarm icon, but can't seem to find a way to hide this.
I'm using LiquidSmooth JellyBean 4.2.1 Beta 2 and the KT kernel if that helps.

Aren't you running TPR rom? Why aren't you asking this in that roms thread? If you are on TPR there is an included app that allows you to choose which toggles to display and in what order also. Go to settings then quick panel
Edit: my bad thought you where referring to the toggles I see now it's the icons on the status bar.

My guess would be somewhere in framework... Did you try morphology?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
it's a systemUI icon, you could find it and make it the same color as your UI bar, then it would "disappear" and you wouldn't see it.
Morphology has colors, but you could download morphology and see where it is and what the filename is and then color it to your desires. then inject it into your UI with 7zip.
I have attached them in purple...these the right ones?
Or you could use a piece of black electrical tape, pull it off when you are not on vibrate...J/K.. The above is a better idea..

Well if you want to do it the "right" way, as in hide the icon while in vibrate mode, get the Settings.apk from TPR and decompile it
Then find the place where you can turn the vibrate toggle off/on and either run the code it uses or modify the files that its modifying
Do that and you'll be able to do it on any rom, regardless of whether its already been baked in or not

Hard time seeing notification bar. Any colorful options out there?

Oh my GS2 I had a notification bar that was very colorful. For example when I got GMail notifications, it LOOKED like the red and white GMail icon. When I got text messages, the icon LOOKED like the green color messaging app icon.
I could see those very well. Unfortunately I can not see gray notification icons very well.
Are there any colorful theme options for the STOCK JB ROM?
Thanks!
Anyone?
Either flash a rom that uses the Theme Chooser engine (I'm running Task650's JB on my AT&T s3). There are a TON of themes available for it.
I've also never tried it, but I've heard others talking about an app called Omega Statusbar. Maybe that will help.
I agree, I hate the stock status bar. Signal/Battery/Wifi indicators.

I've been looking for the same thing! Don't want an entire theme, just a colorful status bar. I'm on Task's AOKP rom and looking for a flashable zip.
I believe paranoid android had that. Look in the original android development forum for the ROM.

Transparency status bar and navigation

How come HTC didn't make the status bar and navigation bar transparent like everyone else are doing after Kitkat? Am I missing something? Is there an option to turn it off?

It's transparent on the home screen and lock screen, and then changes color based on the app that you're in. It's just a design choice on HTC's part. Custom roms and/or sense 6 toolbox (when it comes out) will probably let you force transparency all the time. However, transparent status bar and white icons with no shadow or outline can make for a bad day if you pick the wrong wallpaper.

Yea when I had my nexus 5 I was basically the same way it varied between apps mainly for that reason that visibility of the of the icons would be horrible.

Oh I see, I am just asking because I am using the Google Launcher and it doesn't have transparent status/navigation like the Nexus 5 does.
