Here is a quick How To on adding the Driving Mode button to the Quick Settings drop down.
REQUIREMENTS
Knowledge on how to decompile and recompile SystemUI.apk
GUIDE
1. Decompile your SystemUI.apk
2. Navigate to and open \SystemUI\res\values\arrays.xml
3. In your text editor you will see this list:
<string-array name="QuickSettingButtonAttribute">
<item>Wifi</item>
<item>Location</item>
<item>SilentMode</item>
<item>AutoRotate</item>
<item>Bluetooth</item>
<item>MobileData</item>
<item>DormantMode</item>
<item>PowerSaving</item>
<item>AllShareCast</item>
<item>MultiWindow</item>
<item>Sync</item>
</string-array>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
3. Add the following line where you want the Driving Mode Button to be:
<item>DrivingMode</item>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
For example:
<string-array name="QuickSettingButtonAttribute">
<item>Wifi</item>
<item>Location</item>
<item>SilentMode</item>
<item>AutoRotate</item>
<item>Bluetooth</item>
<item>MobileData</item>
<item>DormantMode</item>
<item>PowerSaving</item>
<item>DrivingMode</item>
<item>AllShareCast</item>
<item>MultiWindow</item>
<item>Sync</item>
</string-array>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4. Save, recompile and replace your SystemUI.apk on your device - either reboot or flash via recovery (which ever method you prefer)
5. DONE!
NOTES:
Even though no notification pops up confirming it is enabled IT IS, if you goto system settings and find the enable button you will see it is ON.
You can also delete, rearrange your buttons to how ever you like.
The graphic for Driving Mode IS included in our devices ROMS, so no need to add any images either. (Along with other buttons that aren't enabled)
You can also add Airplane Mode:
<item>AirplaneMode</item>

I don't know if it's possible, you would have to create some icons for it and add maybe:
<item>Torch</item>
or
<item>FlashLight</item>
But may not even work with our device.

nice one works nicely
now to get my other changes i was trying to do to work
Great and thanks. Do you know if there's any way to add a 2g/3g toggle?

Right here on XDA
XDA is the place I found out how to do all the stuff I do, many tutorials, just search for the right thing
ask and ye shall find
the power of the search is great on this forum
it shall provide you with all that you need and stuff that you could need
Are you signing the apk? In walkthroughts is written dont sign when its system apk, which is.
Tried to decompile,recompile, did not change anything and on phone it is not working.
Also, odexed or deodexed? This file is in both versions. Tried them both,no success.
It would be great to find out full list of possible items. I will decompile stock systemUI and take a look for full list

This is a small editing I did for those who are bored of the original DDKQ8 Swipe to Remove Lockscreen.
What I did:
-Removed the lock icon
-Replaced animated arrows with animated circles which gives it a small ripple effect
This gives it a very minimal effect (which I like).
Given below is the framework-res flashable for the SGSIIv9 framework-res.apk (because I am currently using it).
You can simply flash it ONLY if you are using SGSIIv9 Rom.
So if anyone needs one for your own framework-res you can attach it on a post and I will try and edit it
It not a big deal. Hope you like it.

I could if i have the original framework-res.apk of the SGSIIv9. I seem to have deleted mine. So ask someone for the original one, open the flashable zip file, go to system>framework> and replace the framework-res.apk there. Now reboot into CWM and flash.
Thank you

Just out of curiosity, why?
To sort of answer your question, you'd have to look for it with in the System.apk.
Extract it, open it, look for the divider image file, edit it, recompress it, and then replace it with your system.apk.
System apk???
Its in the framework-res.apk in /res/drawable-xhdpi look for some pngs titled "dividers" I'm unsure about the exact name.

You should look inside the frameworks (framework-res.apk and SemcGenericUxpRes.apk).
Just remember to modify both of them or you won't face any change.

you should use a flashable .zip instead, with the SystemUI.apk only and an updater-script like this
Code:
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
unmount("/system");

I suppose you're editing your Status Bar background, so there's nothing to edit into the frameworks
Here in attachment I made one based on the SystemUI.apk you sent me.

It was a little more difficult to get the notification background to change, still nothing hard (vokal changed the background to a colour reference, so I had to modify the reference to be directed to a resource, that's why even by modifing the resources the status bar didn't change).
If you think you can continue on your own then I'll upload my modified .apk

One question though.. where is the settings background kept? is it in settings.apk? I have yet to open that up
EDIT: I looked through defaultthemes.apk instead and it seems to have them in there, i'll do some graphic editing on them to see if thats it

This is what you should do:
- decompile SystemUI.apk
- under layout folder, find status_bar_tracking.xml and open it (I suggest you to use Notepad ++)
- now, under .CloseDragHandle, find the background attribute (android:background) and change the value to match your preferences (value is aarrbbgg - alpha, red, blue, and green)
- save and rebuild it
- now, open the modified and the untouched SystemUI.apk with WinRar (or another .zip manager)
- take from layout folder of the modified one status_bar_tracking.xml
- then, under the untouched one, replace status_bar_tracking.xml with the one you've just taken from the modified SystemUI.apk
And that's it, replace it under /system/app and the job is done

Hiya,
I've been searching all over and everyone's solutions are to use the 24 hour clock, or a app that removes it.
I'm in the process of making a rom and that am/pm gets in my way..
I want to edit the XML to remove it, not a work around.
Does anyone know a tutorial or what line to edit for 4.1.2?

There is a couple options here..
Option#1: Find where it is in the smali and edit the const... HINT HINT com/android/systemui/statusbar/policy/Clock.smali
Option#2: Edit the string in /values folder where it says:
Code:
<string name="am">AM</string>
<string name="pm">PM</string>
Not sure how that will work.. but worth a shot..
Let me know if how it works out..:good:
