Hi guys this is my first post here in xda!
I'm here to ask a thing:
When i unboxed my XPERIA PLAY I and turned it on i looked to the black status bar on the phone framework and looked to the box framework that was more beauty and was blue with white icons.
Can someone tell me if its possible to get the original blue framework like the image i have posted above, thanks in advanced, and sorry my English :S.
The photo of the box us edited with the computer. The statusbar looks on every xperia play that is on stock "ugly".
You must be rooted and edit the systemui.apk to get this

My PLAY is rooted, and i have 2.3.4 with it, what things i need to edit in systemui.apk and where do i get those files?
Thanks.
Which theme did u use?? I think its a theme effect. Try changing it to blue.

It's not a theme effect, it's actually older amdtroid version. I remembered my friend's X10 android 2.1 stock has this battery style.

You'll need to modify the battery icons inside framework-res.apk then push it back into system. Maybe you can ask someone to theme it for you

One more thing, do a nandroid backup before you modify. And make it a flashable zip and flash it via CWM.

Noo thats wrong. you need to edit systemui.apk in /system/app.
the systemui.apk actually prodyces the statusbar

Maybe I used the wrong framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk files..? Or they doesnt depend on android version that I use? Maybe they're from an old rom or something... Where could I get a good ones for 2.3.6 rom?

[Q] Battery % for DDKQ8 Stock ODEXED Rom...
Can anyone please upload the cooked files for Battery % for DDKQ8 Stock ODEXED ROM ? Well which are the files to be uploaded to cook using the UOT Kitchen, both framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk, or just the SystemUI.apk ? I tried to cook it myself, but having some problem uploading the files...Can someone help me out ?
Guys please. There's a tutorial on the kitchen itself on how to use it. Please watch it and be careful on what you do with your phone.
Note: Even if you make a mistake and flash something you didn't want, use THAT exact framework and system ui (touch wiz file too if you're on stock).
Example; you want transparent status bar but you made it too transparent and now you want it back. You have to use the already flashed system files to re-make the one you want. You can't use the ones you started with otherwise the changes won't take effect.
Lol, saying all this from self experience. I love experimenting xD

You can use root explorer to copy systemui to your computer. Open it up, and then replace the battery images with the ones you want. then push it back.
Are you flashing a theme as well? Just go to the theme your flashing and open systemui and then replace the images you want and flash the theme.

first of all,I really appreciate ur help guys and I can never thank u enough for ur help.
ok,I looked all over the XML file and can't find the exact line to edit,i thought its cuz im using a modified systemUI,so I decompiled the original systemUI and extracted tw_status_bar.xml from layout to compare but still can't find the exact line to edit.
I found one line only with the same color code u mentioned so I changed it and recompiled,replaced and fixed permissions then rebooted and the status bar disappeared ! so I replaced again in system/app and this time wiped both caches and still status bar wont show up ! so ofcorse I put back my original systemUI AND got it back
I've attached my systemUI so may be if any of u have some time u can look at it and have a play ! ??
I'm running stock jb 4.1.2 LSD AND its odexed

hmm not sure were you found SystemUI.apk your working off of but its a freaking mess.
It looks like you compiled it with a chainsaw , Missing Dex etc all kinds of bad error jungle when i decompiled....
Anyway I pulled xml from it , made edit and packed it into worthy SystemUI.apk for error free recompile.
I then pulled edited file from apk and gift wrapped it for you vrtheme install.

oh my
Your apk is a mess as seen in screen shot so it would only make sense for you status bar to disappear....heck you should be in boot loops.
And this is only half of errors displayed within apk.
Lets start over,
This thread / forum its not the place for it , In the future you would want to go - http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=527
For now get your creation working on device , extract working copy SystemUI.apk , send it to me in PM & I will make color edit to its status tw_status_bar.xml

i'm sure my SystemUI looked twice as bad after my FAILED attempt trying to get a transparent status bar background with white text.
I'm trying to do the same mod of changing the color of the battery percent, but when I open the XML file both on my phone and on my PC, it's almost all scrambled and unreadable. Is there a special encoding it needs to be opened with? I'm using a stock rooted deodexed ROM.

You can't just extract an app and open xml files. The app must be decompiled first, changes made, then recompiled. If you are a noob, I would suggest TickleMyAndroid as a starting place. There is a thread.

You could always edit the battery icons yourself. Just paste the wanted battery icons into SystemUI.apk where the battery icons are supposed to be and push it into /system/app with the correct permissions and voila you're done.
Doing this quite often when there are themes I want to apply but they don't come in CWM flashable zip for the rom I'm using

Its not only about installing the SF app, you'll have to flash its content as well that is when you make changes on the control app it will reflect.

Just copy the systemui API from your system/app folder to your sdcard and open it using 7zip or similar program on your PC. Locate the icon files within the app, most likely under res/drawable/hdpi or xhdpi and copy the icon you want straight into the apk and overwrite. No need to extract the apk. Note this only works when replacing images. If you want 1% battery, you'll have to edit some xmls as well (dunno which one though).
And just copy the apk back to where you found it and give it the correct permission (644) and reboot.

Hello
I don't know if i'm in the right section, but I've a problem
I have a Xperia Arc S with SE-Tweaked ROM (Gingerbread .62 Custom ROM) and the lockscreen is DISGUSTING (sorry)
So I want to come back to the original lockscreen of Gingerbead .62
I've saved every original system/app folder but I don't found lockscreen into it..
So can you provide me a Flashable CWM zip or guide me to found it in system/app
Thanks !
Please post in correct section next time...
Lockscreen can be changed back to stock by replacing framework-res.apk which can be found in /system/framework

I am quite sure lockscreen is not just framework-res but some more files (can't remember by heart).
Sorry I was confused for the section
Thank you guys but in SE-Tweaked, i love the UI , EXCEPT the lockscreen, so if I replace framework-res.apk, will it replace also all the UI (clock , battery, notification center etc..)

Battery is in SystemUI, I am not sure about clock, but some features are in framework-res, such as some icons, some general layout/colors, if I am not mistaken.
