To make the status bar transparent flash the file you download in clockwork mod recovery remember if you use launcher pro you will need to use multi picture live wallpaper since it is not set by in launcher pro the other launchers should be fine

u will get this three files in two location ...
Systemui.apk in system/app folder
twframework-res.apk & framework-res.apk in system/framework folder
u need to copy this three files from your stock rom .... then keep them in a folder in pc.
then go to google.com ... there search for uot kitchen
uot.dakra or something like this site will come... in that site u will see there is a option called kitchen ... click that.
then click on file upload option ...
on the right u will seee a option called upload system files... click that .. then select those three files on by one in that site fron your pc.
it will autometically be uploaded .
then on that page only ... look at left and u will see on the top there will be a option called " select flashable zip scripting" by default it will be MTD ... click on it and select Galaxy.
then see a little below u will see a option called " Theme chooser preview" select mdpi/idpi option NOT HDPI.
after complition of this ... click on summery ... and if u did everything correctly ... it will be.showed as green colour.
anywaz ... "click on submit to kitchen."
once u clicked on submit u will get a order code with some numbers ... copy that code somewhere ... after 5-10min click on pickups ... ur file will be there with that same order code.
DONT APPLY OTHER ORDER CODES...IF U APPLY OTHERS ORDERS ... AND FLASH IT .. YOUR PHONE MIGHT FALL IN BOOT LOOP .... SO DOWNLOAD ONLY URZ NOT OTHERS.
anywaz now after downloading ur file .. copy that file in your sd cards root folder ... not in any folders ...
then switch off your phone and start your phone in this combination keys ... (home+power+volume up) keep holding those 3 buttons until u see galaxy y young black screen ... release the.buttons ...
u will be in recovery mode ... there select apply update from sd card... then select the cwm zip file and mount that ... u will be in cwm recovery... there select apply update from zip ... choose the file u just downloaded and flash it ...
and then reboot.
if everything goes well ... after rebooot ur notification bar will be available.

Restore your UI to stock(framework-res.apk, twframework-res.apk & SystemUI.apk) DDLC2​
So what you gonna do is:
1. Download the below attached "ui-restore.zip"
2. Place the "ui-restore.zip" in the root of sdcard.
3. Boot into recovery (switch on pressing "vol up + home + power" buttons).
4. Select update.zip from sdcard.
5. Select "ui-restore.zip"
6. Reboot

(HOW TO) Swap SD Card For CM10

Since CM10 by Arco released, there is no swap option in the storage menu.
This is only for CM10 and ONLY FOR GALAXY W
For this just copy the file provided to '/etc/(paste)' via root explorer or some other app...also set permissions to rw-r-r
For Permissions: Image Provided.
there are two files.
1. Internal sd card as the default
2. Microsd card as Default
THIS IS NOT A FLASH-ABLE ZIP. PLEASE EXTRACT
Thanks to (tomatoman23)

yow jas!
just want to clarify things;
you mean, to swap internal to external memories, just paste these TWO files to /etc, changed permissions, reboot, and done?
or we select which one to be default?
-salute!

sorry, it's say other men:
1. Download "External sd card as default".
2. Extract vold.fstab

6. Got bootloop

This doesn't work on arco's cm10 alpha1.I copied the vold.fstab with root explorer and set permissions like the image.And the phone stuck at bootanimation.Phone doesn't boot normally.

Or you could simply with the default file explorer in CM10, enable root acess and then navigate to system > etc > void.fstab and then change it to resemble this
# internal sdcard
dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard1 28 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host/mmc1
# externel sdcard
dev_mount external_sd /storage/sdcard0 auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.4/mmc_host/mmc2

Or you can use the one I included because some might be lazy, all you need to do now is change the permissions to rw-r--r-- (heres what it looks like if you are unsure)

I have also used this vold.fstab (and followed the instructions) and my phone got stuck at the bootanimation. I will try to manually modify my vold.fstab.
Sent from my GT-I8150 using xda premium

I´m not into CM10 for now as CM9 is working well for me, but assuming the vold.fstab files provided by jassim007 are correct, you need to do the following to prevent the SGW to stick in a bootloop.
1) Use RootExplorer
2) Copy the file either to your external or internal Storage
3) Move the file to your device, but not the destination folder
4) Set permissions correctly
5) Copy to destination folder by overwriting the original vold.fstab
6) Reboot

Hold the file u want to set and pick set permission.. that's in root explorer. Dunno bout es..
U can set permission via adb shell or terminal emulator by using chmod command. Useful when u need to change multiple files (in one folder)
