Hello people. I'm seeing alot of battery mod threads but if you want a little more customisation head over to the UOT kitchen and bake your own framework/system ui.
I did it yesterday and it worked perfectly. You just need clockwork recovery and your away.

Be sure to head over to this thread and hit thanks. Mendozinas put in alot of work :

I'm just putting this out there for people new to android or that don't know about the kitchen.
Its a great tool!
Enjoy!
Great heads up, i see ti now works with stock ROM's as well, wish they would add the CRT effect though.
this is a good website but unfortunately all that it changes for me is the battery icon and nothing else on status bar or notification area, i am confused whats up with it, its not just this its every theme i try to install does the same
well, the main prob with kitchen and our phones (S series and S2 too) is Touchwizz.
modifications via kitchen only affect framework-res.apk ;touchwizz needs modifications on twframework too.
knowing this, you can still use kitchen for :
-battery icons.
-notification icons
-glowing (at least for sliders bars and a part of the pop-up windows IF they aren't managed by twframework ).
haven't tried mods on status bars yet with my S2 but they were ok with my old galaxy S so it's probably the same.
P.S :
as always with themes, don't forget to wipe cache and dalvik cache after applying it viaCWM
hope it helps
Can someone provide me framework-res.apk and systemui.apk from stock KE7? Thanks.
How to submit it? I selected what I needed, uploaded framework-res.apk and systemui.apk but when I click Submit button nothing happens!
OK, I figured it out. But I can't select 'Transparent Status Bar' only, I don't want any modifications on status bar but just to make it Transparent! Maybe it's not allowed!

Can you choose status bar then not put a tick in the box for icons?
That should work.

Well the Transparent Bar is not working for me. Just for me I just selected only Transparent Bar and nothing else, but it's the same damn black status bar in the end
Try with ADW launcher for the transparent statusbar and disable wallpaper hack
Hey all,
Just having an issue with UOT kitchen ever since I flashed to Lite'ning ROM 1.4 on KF1. Getting SHTF errors every time I try to cook files now, anyone else having this issue?
I created my first theme and it worked, however i lost the screen capture feature, does anyone know why?
Hi mendozinas,
Because i have changed my phone to GS S2(i9100) and would you please tell me this version UOT Kitchen whether support GS S2(i9100) + SpeedMod SGS2 [K1-T31 CWM4 CIFS ROOT] ?
Thanks!
I've cooked my battery icon for xxkg1 2.3.3 but i'm asking if is it possible to use the "SCB with %" (Version C, New charger for example) and hybrid charge animation.
Thanks!

Ain't you supposed to upload the twframework.apk along with the framework-res and systemui? I did and everything changed, battery, signal, wifi, alarm, menus, pop ups, font, everything I told it to its changed everytime.

Hi all, hope your well.
Thank you directing us to the kithen. I have tried to use but seem to have an issue. When I select a mod, and click generate preview, it doesnt do it. It tries to generate it but then just times out. Anyone else had/having the same issue? Am I missing something or could it just be my internet?
Everything else works fine on my internet.
Thanks in advance guys!!
EDIT: Sorted. It just started to work.
Hello everybody,
I started this thread because I'm having a not very important but annoying problem,I'm sure more people face this.
Case:
XWKK5 Kitchen Slimrom+Jkay 14.1
Theming with UOT-kitchen goes fine,BUT in the statusbar the H+ icon remains original.
I'm sure many devs and themers know how to fix this for me and many others!
Mate that's just picky...

Hi,
I have the same results on my I9100, but, it works perfectly on my Nexus S.
Hi,
You're right my friend, got the same problem with my [MODS)..... How to replace easily the H+ icon please...? Good question...
It's not exactly rocket science, have you looked inside the UOT kitchen file to make sure they new icons are there?

It doesnt use "H" icons for "H+", they are called by two differnt names:
"stat_sys_data_connected_h.png"
"stat_sys_data_connected_h_plus.png"
You need to look inside and see if there are any "H+" icons inside your UOT zip, im guessing UOT doesnt have them to put in your zip so it will use the default."H+"
If they arent included you can copy the "H" icons outside and rename to include "_plus" like above then put them into your zip and flash.
But this will show a H instead of H+.
Edit: After looking at the kalagas icon set on UOT there is no H+ icons, so if the other icon sets are the same you will never replace your original H+ icons unless they update the kitchen to include them.
The workaround is to manually edit them yourself, either by following the above or using a image editor to add the "+" symbol to thew icon.

Okay thank you!
I'll try to edit the icons maybe.
Why the hell would anyone want to remove this icon, bizzare
I think he means "replace".
This is a basic HOW TO process to change/edit the status bar icons to add some color (or change icon) to the unbelievably mundane grey icons in the AT&T status bar. I've done this on CleanROM ACE (v3.5 through v4.9) by editing “systemUI.apk” and “framework-res.apk” (res/drawable-xhdpi folders) and dropping custom PNGs into their respective folders. You should have no issue doing this on any GNote2 ROM (another forum member confirmed works on Jedi as well). I simply swapped PNGs, using the Open Archive functionality in 7-Zip. If you are just copying images files (PNGs), this zip/open-archive method is easy and quick. There is no need to decompile/recompile the apks… you only need to understand how to use 7-ZIP…. how to open/modify file archives… and use an icon editor. (instructions attached). If you want to edit or substitute xmls, smali files, you will need to decompile apk, make edits/file drops, then recompile. You will also need the AndroidManifest.xml and resources.arsc files created from the recompile to move with the other xml changes to a flashable zip
Also attached is a list of icons I changed (including two 7z files you can extract to start your icon modding madness (WiFi, data, phone signal bars, bluetooth, mute, as well as animated GPS, upload, and download) including screenshots of some of these icons, and a step-by-step process if you wish to try this for yourself. I changed 13 icons in framework-res.apk and 22 icons in systemUI.apk. These PNGs are in the res/drawable-xhdpi sub folders.
Open, read, download attachments…. hopefully this helps you customize your status bar icons. If you don't like the color theming... np, just create any color combo you want with your favorite editor (I use "Paint.NET" which is very simple to use). Comments welcome.

Thanks, anyway to change the clock? I want it blue!
If you're running CleanROM 3.3, check out Tiffany84's thread in Theme forum... there's a blue theme with center clock mod that's pretty cool. If you go that route, I'd recommend you flash that mod first, then use that systemUI to make your custom PNG changes (otherwise that mod will overwrite your systemUI)
ok I wanna do just what you described. I want to replace the 4G icons from the international systemui with the 4G LTE icon from the ATT stock status bar. Just the 4G, I still want H+ for HSPA+ and the rest just like they are.
now when I open the Systemui.apk to my surprice all icons are there and even some that I have seen in other ROMs, even for othe devices. Hhow do I make the icons i want active and hide the sotck? just renaming them? and what name should they be? I see that some icon sets start with ics_stat and some with tw_stat. I think the stock start with just stat but I am not sure because there is some LTE icon that start with that as if they were active but does not show in the status bar
Dr Evo thanks for the PM. Ok so I'm not on ClearROM, I'm trying to cooke my own ROM with mods I have found around the site for my own use. Is based on the international ROM N7105XXDLL1.
My icon serias is the international, it has the grey numerals with the arrows right under. I don't live close to a non LTE are but when I change the APN to disable LTE I get the H+ icon and so on.
Now I got the ATT 4G LTE icon working by renaming the file, but the arrows are right on top of it and when I try to delete them the Systemui.apk FC on me.
I also used the Systemui.apk for UCLAJ2 the one from The Hybrid Saurom ROM that has the nice circle battery mod but this also has the international icons and the brightness slider does not turn off as I have it turned off on the stock one.
By the way, my daily driver this is what I got so far:
1. 4x5 with wallpaper scrolling Launcher
2. Transparent multiwindow with MWC for all apps
3. Resizable Popup Browser
4. Bravia Engine
5. Ink mod for lockscreen with color choices including red and black
6. Call Recording
7. Perseus Kernel
8. 23 toogles
9. CM10 apps like Apollo player transparent, Soundsearch with history.
10. 4.2 app like DesckClock, and Gallery includes the camera
11. Debloated but kept all SamsungDive aka Remote and S-Pen functionality, and also kept DLNA funtionality as I use this with my TV and such. All tested working
Wish list:
1. Volume skip/back mod for music players
2. Battery circle mod the one Saurom is using goes perfect with the ATT status theme. Is green and changes colors to red when is almost done
3. 4G LTE icon for LTE
4. Ink mod for live wallpaper
5. CRT-off animation
Its verry fast and it does not looses any functionality. I score 2066 on Geekbench with the stock ROM I scored 2094.
OC to CPU 1.8Ghz and GPU 800Mhz I score 2256 on geekbench and 8066 on quadrant.

@ DJBBOX The "in"/"out" arrows you probably want to keep as that does show network traffic while on LTE. The ATT "4G/ LTE" icon (tw_stat_sys_data_connected_lte_att.png) covers two levels (as the "LTE" is below the 4G) so it vying for the same space as the network traffic signal arrows. Here's an option: the attached PNG ("stat_sys_data_connected_lte.png") is just "LTE" in blue... but should allow for the network traffic arrows below as well... so when you are in an LTE area, it will show "LTE" in blue, with arrows below. If that works for you, just rename my attached file ("stat_sys_data_connected_lte.png") to "stat_sys_data_connected_4g.png", and drop it in your systemUI using 7-Zip Open Archive method.
Thanks

This 4G icon does not come with Jedi ROM. I just photoshoped the at&t 4g logo and turned it into an icon.
I'v uploaded both a 3G and 4G icon here:

Check the "Tiffany84" thread in the Theme forum (CleanROM theming)... she also has been kind enough to take requests (if you ask nicely!)
Updated attachments (zip format) for the PNGs... now includes the "4G LTE" icon for AT&T enthusiasts. You can pretty much do what you want... just make sure your custom PNG(s) are the exact same dimension and exact file name as the ones you are replacing in the Open Archive file.
Would be nice to have a "how to" video.

PDF (How To Instructions) updated to include 4G LTE icons...
Thanks for the tutorial. Replaced my own lte icon and looking good. Had to make several adjustments to make room for the xfer arrows and prevent them from overlapping so it took a few tries.
I used this method and ninjamorph (market) to compare. I think I prefer the app, especially since it's free, fast, and easy.
Can you replace the framework.apk in Root Explorer or do you have to flash it?

you can... but you run a higher risk of things going south when messing with live (active) system files. It's always safest to use the 'empty' flashable zip Scott made and drop your files (/system/framework and or /system/app) in appropriate folder.. then flash in recovery (recommend wiping cache/dalvik...then your flashable zip) If you want to push using Root Explorer, I would recommend you first copy your active framework-res.apk file to a safe place (external sd). Copy is the operative word... do NOT rename, delete, or move an active system file (like framework-res.apk) or you're in for a FC Maelstrom party. After you've safely copied the framework-res file, then move your 'updated' framework-res.apk first to /system folder and fix permissions (rw.r.r).. then move that file to /system/framework and replace the active one. Now reboot.

If you're rooted and you have Xposed Framework installed, use xStana. It's in the Play Store. But if you would go for a System UI mod rather than an Xpsed module, look in the Themes & Apps subforum.
Screenshot.
I downloaded it and it's not changing the signal bars for some reason. It changed all the other icons. I turned off all of my other Xposed modules to see if something was interfering. It still didn't work. Sucks because that icon was literally all I wanted to change.
Does you phone have 4 or 5 bars for the icon? It could be caused by that because my F460 has 4 not 5 so the mods need to be made for it or it won't work.
