Isn't anyone annoyed at how big the status icons at on the notification bar? It takes up so much space compared to stock android. Is there a way to change this? My device is not rooted. If I need to root to change, how can I do it?

I have search high, and low, and all I seem to be able to find is that you need to have a rooted device to be able to change the icons in the status bar, and what not. Well my slide is rooted, but I do no see any where that tells how to change them, or change the battery icon to show % and what not. Could someone point me in a direction, or give me some pointers on how to change the icons? Mainly the battery app/icon, I want one that shows % in the right, which most apps will show a % but then I have 2 battery icons, I just want the 1.
Along the lines of his question. Whatever happened to the status bar/tweak options in CM Settings for CM7?
They are implementing the color changing through the themes app they are providing. I wouldnt be suprised if the theme process will eventually cover the unlock slider aswell.
ok so i was running the acer rom on my evo and i love the notification bar. but i dont like the rest of the rom so my question is this is there any way to put notification bar on another rom?
Notify Me too!
I would love to change my notification bar too. I had the palm pre and I could change the theme and the symbols of everything with a few simple selections and doing it through an android device takes jumping through a few hoops.
I have had many smart phones. This one by far has the largest screen and the smallest status bar. I have a battery app that displays actual % in an icon on the status bar. I can barely read it and have to focus hard. The status bar size seems overly small when coupled with such a huge screen. Is there any way or app that allows increasing the bar size and icons in it?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I'm having the same problem. Doesn't bother me much, though.
I would assume that changing the DPI (if you have a rooted phone) would do the trick. If not, perhaps increasing the font size would help, but I'm not sure about that...
Recently got ARHD 20.3 and really don't like the navigation bar taking up so much space on the screen. Anyone I can make it transparent? Status bar would also be nice.
If not, is there any app/tweak that hides the navigation bar and comes back when I swipe upwards from the bottom of the screen (or anything similar).
Thanks
This thread has a number of mods. The transparent nav and status bar work great on Insertcoin 5.0.

Wondering if there's any way to do this, I've tried super status bar but it looks really bad on home without transparency imo. I just hate the default LG 4g and Signal bars lol wondering if there's any way to change it with root access
