I'm looking to get my notifications bar transparent. Not the pulldown, but the actual bar. i found one .zip that was a couple months old that worked, but it wouldnt work with circle battery and no loc, and i dont know how to compile the three of those into the framework (or whatever) myself. does anyone know a relatively simple way to get my notifications bar semi or fully transparent (50% or 75% or 100%). thanks!
Nope sorry, I've been looking for this too. Well this or a MIUI status bar for sense
ive been trying to port over the one from riptides evo theme without success
as soon as i get it to work i will post
for any of you interested, I wrote up a quick tutorial on making your status bar transparent yourself. It's easy.

Alright, I just got a hold of CM7 for my Incredible 2 and wanted to know how I can get a 50% transparency status bar. I looked all over, even in that Meizu theme thread (or whatever it's called) and I still can't find out how to do it. Can anybody please give me a quick tutorial? Please?
Bump! SOMEBODY needs to know how to do this...
I would also like to know how.
I mean, I GOT it and everything, but the clock is centered. Rest assured I am restoring a Nandroid right now. I don't want a centered clock.

it isn't a quite tutorial, inverting the status bar mean, that you need to change the .png of the status bar from black to whatever transparency you want, I use paint.net...
then EVERY status bar icon has a black background.. you need to change probably over 100 icons give or take to have it look correct other wise u will have a transparent staus bar with icons that have a black background.
I suggest using the UOT kitchen. much faster. and it should do this MOD for u, I'm not sure I've never used it but people seem to like it.
download the Metamorph app and search for "metamorph darkshade.zip". The darkshade.zip file will theme your notification pulldown for you. You'll have to do a battery pull after applying the theme but afterwards you'll be golden.
I've tried using metamorph but it does do anything for my Inc2 and I'm on CM7. Any help?

is there a screenshot of this? I don't really understand why you would want a transparent statusbar

Does anyone know how to remove the battery from the status bar? I have a great app that is similar to the bar in MIUI and don't need the battery anymore.
It is a services.jar edit.
I am pretty sure there are guides on here about how to edit it.
Thanks. I looked once but only found people asking. I will take another look.
Hi,
I want to center my clock in the middle of the bar, but I'd like to remove AM/PM first; e.g. if it's 9:50PM it would only write 9:50, not 21:50.
Any ideas?
Thanks
I've been reading up on the subject it seems I have to edit SystemUI.apk by "decompiling" and "recompiling" it afterwards. Can anybody explain how I would go about doing that? I am suspecting there is some sort of APK manager I need to use over adb or not?
Hi. I'm trying to make my Status Bar in my Galaxy S3 4.2.1 Semi transparent but have a hiccup. I know how to Decompile/Recompile etc...
I looked everywhere for an answer but no avail. So, here I am asking the question. I know how to make it transparent, but it does not stick at boot up. What I changed is this: <item type="drawable" name="status_bar_background">#bf000000</item> in SystemUI.apk\res\values - drawables.xml.
MY problem is that when the phone boots up, the status bar is still the default color. 100% solid color. Only when I pull down the notification, is when it turns transparent the way I modded. It will stay transparent the way I made after I do the pulldown notification once. But why isn't it not transparent right away after boot up? Did I miss something somewhere in SystemUI? Somethings else needs changing? Thank you.
