Ok... You partially edited your OP, but you should also remove the download links and change Subject from "How To" to [REQ]. People will update their SystemUI and this will negatively affect many other icons & things.
And if anyone wants to try this (as the OP hasnt) rename original SystemUI to a .bak

Yeah, that's probably a good idea. I threw it up in a hurry as I'm about to head out the door. I'll correct it real quick before leaving.

I've already done this (but i didnt follow the OP's guide) and it works. Just gotta decompile your own SystemUI.apk and replace the pngs as well as the xml that draws the batter icons.

Try attached zip. REMEMBER TO MAKE A NANDROID
Just flash in recovery.

Just got back in town... anyone try flashing this zip? Or am I currently committing the act of guinea pig? lol
UPDATE:
Works like a champ. I already modded my statusbar to be transparent. This battery looks great on it.

Are you talking about the one i made? And statusbar seems to go transparent if you are in the TouchWiz launcher or on the locksceen by default too. I also modded my own to allow me to "Swipe away" the stupid battery full notification.

I had a feeling that might happen. It happens when things aren't signed. Let me try to sign the apk for you and see if it works. It may just do the same thing. But its worth a shot.
Flash attached zip again in recovery. Restore your nandroid first though.

Yes I do. It's signature verification. It checks the certificates of the apk and since they are different then original, it denies that app all permissions, which it needs in order to run. So flashing the modded apk, then factory reset, should reset the "stored" signatures.

Factory reset and still no working,
I was playing and i was able to create SystemUI.apk that show the Circle battery in the phone but the % are not working (go from 100 to 87, 71, 57 etc) . I change the sys_bat and the sys_bat_charg xml to 1% but nothing,
If you don't mind can I post the apk for you to check what i did wrong?
Thanks in advace for all you help.:good:

So factory reset fixed the no status bar issue AND SystemUI force close issue? But the percentages aren't working?
Can you post a screenshot?

I was on evil1art modded mdl rom. I had flashed the transparent status bar mod. Then I flashed your first zip. I had no issues & it is still working fine. Hope this helps your trouble shooting.

[MetaMorph] Gingerbread for CM 6+

I "ported" (very little work by me) Krispy's Metamorph for the GSM Hero to the G1, so that we may have a Gingerbread looking theme. I also included the animations and color folder from gingerbread which he didn't have included. The pictures are from Krispy's page, as they are essentially the same theme.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This changes the fonts, animations, and framework images to gingerbread style.
Use metamorph to flash this, and then use CyanogenMod settings -> User Interface to change the Clock, Date, and Notifications ticker to white.
Update 1.1: Added Krispy's changes.
v1.1 now has both animation- and theme-packages in seperate metamorph directories. That way you can choose whether you want those animations or not ... or just the animations Also it has cleaned up contactframes (aka they be gone now) as well as cleaned up waiting spinners (no more jagged edges there).

Update 1.2: Added Browser and Dialer images, and a few animation .xmls that were missing (none that will likely see)
Update 1.3: Added dark menus (when menu button is pressed)
Download Link for 1.3: http://www.mediafire.com/?2a27yq67wimty5k

What animations would these be, IE the orange light border when you hit the start/end of a menu etc.
Would this work on the Hero also, i thinking kind of yes :S

i'm not necessarily sure exactly which they would be. I used to have animations off, and it's been awhile since i've seen the old ones.
But for sure, the animations of when you unlock the screen and when a menu pops up are different.
Also when a menu pops up (flys up in a semi circle from the bottom right corner), the background fades out over a few seconds, that may or may not have been there before because I was never looking for it, but I think that's new too.
To answer your other question, this probably will work on the hero also, and probably any mdpi device that is running Froyo, but i'm not going to make any promises due to me not having a Hero!
As with Krispys Metamorph, installs the fonts but not the framework-res
tried it 3 times now, its strange some people can get it to work some cant :S

Interesting.. Metamorph needs 1 Root, 2 Busybox, 3 adequate space on /system, 4 proper naming. might be something else you need, but check all those. Try using Titanium Backup to re-install busybox
Also try applying the framework-res individually instead of Apply All, if you haven't do that already

Pretty sure it will be the busybox, im trying from a fresh install, trying to get this theme to work before i bother re-installing my apps from titanuim backup, ill reboot install titanium backup(busybox) retry and report, iv got over 100mb in both phone and SD card
EDIT: With a fresh busybox install from titanium backup same thing happends

i can't send you a framework-res.apk because I don't have a hero sorry.
and i don't know if changing the custom pull downbar would cause bootloops, because i've had no need to change the color since this makes it black

[MOD]Get rid of carrier label

Got tired of that big AT&T label on my statusbar.
Download to sdcard and use the 2nd init recovery to reboot into recovery, then apply and reboot. I used madmack's qslide flashable as a base so it should work fine. I personally just use root explorer and move apks directly because I dont use this recovery.
Should work on odexed or deodexed LG Optimus G Pro ROMs.

You're welcome . Apparently, they've gone and given it their own naming scheme.
If you look in the zip, it looks like it's simply swapping out the status_bar.xml within the res/layout/ of LGSystemUI.apk. It's been a while since I've done any xml edits for system apps, but you might be able to simply insert that modified xml into the existing apk. Might also be wise to save a backup of the original.

thanks, that's the one i used as well, i flashed it and then downloaded the twrp manager app from the play store to access it. the problem seems to be with this, when i go to flash the zip, the app tries to flash but it then goes back to the main twrp interface, it hangs there for several minutes, the screen goes dark, i hit the power button and the screen comes on but stuck on the twrp lock screen and the swiper does not work. i have to do a long press on the power button to get the phone to restart.
i'll either have to ask about this in the twrp thread, drop the attempt all-together, or use the lg tool to reflash the stock rom and start over.

[Flashable Zip] [N7 Wifi only] [KRT16S] Translucent lockscreen bars for 4.4

Hi!
I noticed that the N7 2012 doesn't have the new translucent status & bottom bar on the lock screen.
Nobody seems to have created a zip for the N7, though the N4 has had some love.
I have it working for me, so I thought I'd share.
Please don't use this zip on the N7 3G.
KRT16S Version (Latest)
Code:
Flash this from recovery for your translucent bars:
[url]https://db.tt/DtUygIHb[/url]
Flash this to restore to original in case of bootloops:
[url]https://db.tt/TxfTykJj[/url]
KRT16O Version (old)
Code:
Flash this from recovery for your translucent bars:
[url]https://db.tt/lon9dKd3[/url]
Flash this to restore to original in case of bootloops:
[url]https://db.tt/vClhQlsx[/url]
If Dropbox kills the links for some reason, please drop me a pm.
You shouldn't need to clear cache, but try it if you get a bootloop.
Credits
Hardly any of this is my work, I merely unpacked, edited and packed again.
Thank you to Floydfire for creating this for the N4, and heavily inspiring even my thread title: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2527525

The "framework" folder should be inside a "system" folder, while it's not. I'll try editing the zip and see if it works, but flashing it like this might be dangerous..
EDIT:I just looked at the updater-script, now I understand.. BTW, does it need a deodexed ROM?

Thanks a lot, I tried to follow Quinny's guide as well but always got caught in bootloops (I have plenty of errors when compiling again, probably has sth to do with apktool).
Got a little frustrated when I saw your zip worked though
Thanks again
Thanks for sharing your work.
FYI if you install Googlehome.apk you'll get transparent status and navbar, as well as the new folder and wallpapers.

Bro I think there's something wrong with the zip..
The "framework" folder should be inside a "system" folder, while it's not. I'll try editing the zip and see if it works, but flashing it like this might be dangerous..
EDIT:I just looked at the updater-script, now I understand.. BTW, does it need a deodexed ROM?

I'd just recently used the N7 4.4 factory image and tested with that, so just stock is fine.

I had a frustrating half hour sorting this, during which I could see that the transparency had worked, but it started to bootloop within a minute of hitting the lock screen.
If you want to have another go, try Android Multitool (linked in OP), but don't sign it in that, or with zipsigner. Copy the meta-inf and manifest back from the original apk, instead of signing.
Doing it manually, you may need to place the apk in /system/, then set permissions (0644), then move to /system/framework/

Yup, that or the current Nova Launcher Beta (my personal preference).
Glad it is working for everyone and you are all welcome!
I wanted transparent navi and notification bars so bad but the stock and GEL wont do it (people say it does but it wont) so i installed nova launcher beta and it worked without any mod now i just flashed this mod. nova still working stock still black bars and dont have GEL to check it but i think it will work
Thank you.
Factory image rooted works fine.

before the next OTA update, do we have to flash the original framework-res back?

Yeap, afraid so - maybe keep the original on your device for easy flashing?
I'll be looking forward to Xposed being updating for 4.4 to avoid this in the future

[MOD]s for GPe 4.4 KitKat (APM, transparent lock screen, 2 line date)

I've been running 4.4 KitKat GPe (for the last few days, and have found some things that needed a slight changing so I thought I'd share my mods. First mod will make the status bar transparent in the lockscreen, a great compliment to the tranparent status bar in the GEL launcher (thanks to the random walkthrough I found but didn't bookmark). When pulling down the status bar, the date beside the time is currently one line with an abbreviated weekday. The second mod will make it two lines with a full weekday (thanks CM team). APM is a simple APM (props to @kahvitahra for this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1573032) guide) APM_Menu gives you APM, and changes the extended actions of the home button. With this mod a long press will open Recent Apps and douple tap will open menu. It will also remove the 3 dot nav bar from apps that still use it. All flashable in recovery, odex and deodex versions of APM and 2 line date, tran status bar will work with both odex or deodex.
Note: Hot Reboot in APM may not work. You'll need to download busybox installer from google play. Select "advanced" install and install all symlinks ( or just pkill ) - now hot boot should work..if not I'll play around a little more. But bootloader, shut down, reboot, and recovery are working.
Downloads here - CURRENTLY ONLY FOR USE IN A DALVIK RUNTIME ENVIRONMENT. If someone knows what needs to be done to keep the mods ART compatible, I'm all ears! If you didn't read this before flashing on an ART enabled device, the back to stock zip here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47969145&postcount=13) will get you back up and running.

is the APM multilanguage or just English?

The APM menu options are English, the buttons will be multilingual though
This is a pretty basic implementation of APM, so it's not using strings that are available to be translated.

Do you have any Revert zips? I flashed the 2_line and APM odex files in one queued flash with latest TWRP and im stuck on a never ending boot animation. I forgot that I hadn't made a backup yet so I'd rather not have to flash a GPE ROM over my current setup as I was just on the OTA.
Thanks in advance.
I got the same effect, boot loop after installing mods... Really want the APM!

re uploaded correct APM_odex.zip and all should be right with the world. sorry again guys.
The reboot menu is washed out after flashing the mods?? I first flashed APM, everything was fine. But after flashing the other two mods, the reboot menu got washed out. APM menu itself is OK.
Great work though!!!!

I was using ART as well. I flashed the new APM_odex.zip but still stuck on boot animation, not sure if the 2_line_date odex zip is still an issue for me as well as i did flash that too.
Thank you for the quick response.

Attached to this post is another attempt at 2_line_date.odex, please give it a shot. Just FYI I did test all of these on my device (odex in a dalvik environment) before uploading, they do work for me..
Edit: just in case that doesn't work, i also attached a back to stock that will revert the apm and 2 line mods with stock systemui and android.policy.jar and their corresponding stock odex files. I don't know enough about ART to know why it would stick you in a loop...like I said, they're working fine for me on dalvik. Let me switch to ART and see if I loop..
Edit 2: yea i get no boot with ART as well.. I'll update the OP to reflect that, at least for the time being, these mods will only be compatible in a Dalvik environment. back to stock zip appeared to fix this. Anyone have any thoughts on this? I don't know a whole lot about ART? (My process for these mods was to deodex, make the mod, then reodex making sure the signatures were retained in both the apk/jar and odex, and work as expected in Dalvik)

Thank you for trying, I don't know enough about ART either to be helpful enough to resolve the issue. I do know its use outweighs my need for APM at this point. I will use the backtostock to gte back in a bootable state.

Sorry about that. Just curious, did you attempt wiping cache (and Dalvik, though I assume in an ART environment Dalvik cache isn't used? Again, no clue about ART except damn, it's taking forever to optimize apps.. lol)

Not really, but here's a screenshot of it (sorry for the bad quality, got it off of Google images )
Also, Gravity Box has an option to enable it, but it requires Xposed, which switches back to dalvik.

Dandroid (CyaogenWiz) themed apks for TW 4.3

There have been a few people asking for a 4.3 version of Dandroid for the d2spr. Until one officially comes out, here are the SystemUI, SPlanner, SecSettings, SecPhone, SecMms, SecLauncher2, SecContacts, and SecCalculator apks along with bootanimation in a flash-able zip. This is still a WIP so there are a few pngs that aren't quite right.
This does not include any mods! The center, blue clock and the CM battery icon you see in the screen shots are XPosed moduels.
All of the apks are from CNexus' DeOdexed Stock ROM and the pngs for the theme have come from Dandroid by Danvdh with a few changes here and there by me. Thanks goes out to them for all their hard work and support for the XDA community. Also a big thank you goes out to Rompnit for letting me use his 4x5 launcher and transparent weather widget! Be sure to go thank him for all of his work on MOAR!
Since these are all based on stock, I have no way of knowing for sure if they are compatible with a ROM that has been moded so please make a nandroid before flashing.
This is for TouchWiz 4.3 only!
Disclaimer: Flash at your own risk!
*It is important to note that there may be additional issues I don't know about and as I am a truck driver, not a programmer I may or may not be able to fix things.
Everyone is encouraged to do what ever you like with anything I post.
Instructions:
You need to already be on a TW 4.3 ROM
DL zip to sd card
Boot into recovery (I use CWM)
Make a nandroid
Wipe cache and dalvik cache
Flash and reboot

I'll take a look at see what I can do. Tonight would have been my night to work on it but I was at a Christmas play practice and didn't get to.
I use 8sms from the play store myself. It's hard to beat when it comes to AOSP mms.

Here you go.
Edit: The bootanimation is different from how I've seen it in the past. Samsung uses .qmg files instead of .zips. This one is currently a bit choppy but once the new kernels are up to 100% we'll have more freedom to be creative.
Edit2: By the way, this doesn't have any effect on the down animation. If you want to get rid of that you can go into System/media/video/shutdown and either delete the 2 files in there or rename them by adding ".bak" on the end after the ".qmg".

It's in system/media called bootsamsung.qmg. To work with .qmg files you need a porgram called "Samsung Theme Designer". I don't have any experience with that yet. Just DLed it the other day but haven't been able to play with it.
