Batnip Status Icons v1.0 (for use with CM5 battery percent status display (Cyanogen MOD 5.0.5)
I made these icons because I didn't like the way that the default CM5.0.5 battery icons worked with the new battery percent status display. I felt that the animation needed to be a little more subtle, due to the fact that we now can just read the numbers given to us instead of determining the remaining battery life by examining a sizable indicator.
Pretty colors do come standard, a few short of a rainbow. These icons are the same height as most of the others, making for a more even view of the notification bar.
I felt like sharing and will use these until someone with real experience comes up with something better. Feedback welcome.
Of course I take no responsibility for any damages done to your device. These icons were developed specifically for Cyanogen MOD 5.0.5, be sure to Nandroid your **** up real tight first.
Thanks to cyanogen as always and canadiancow for making this possible. (writing the code for the battery status display!)

When I posted that, I was only using the black bar mod and since that overwrote cyanogen's, it lost the percentage number so I wanted a black bar based off cm5.0.5 but I'm using NexTheme now anyway so you can ignore me

Sorry I still don't fully understand, hopefully you're happy now. If I can do anything please provide me with a few instructions so that my morph can benefit you in the same way it seems to be benefiting others.
It's fine now, thanks.

His problem was that he was using a 5.0.4 theme that erased the battery % numbers, once he updated it worked fine.
Just wanted to say this is an amazing morph and I absolutely love it.
Mat, would you mind placing this and/or any other morph into this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=654858.
Thanks just wanna get all Morphs into one thread

Hey yall,
This may very well be a noob question, so i apologize in advance if so.
I am interested in removing a few icons from the right side of the notification bar, as seen on the home screen (as opposed to having the notification bar pulled down).
I read on the G1 forum that trying to replace these with an inconsistent set of icons (say, 100 different PNG's for each percent) yielded no success. But I just want to remove both the battery icons as well as the alarm icon.
the main reason for this removal is one, i downloaded an app from the market that has the % in an icon on the left side of the notification bar (search for 'battery indicator'; should be free) and i always have my alarm on, and check it in the application.
so my question is, is it possible to do this? If so, which files do i need to remove?
seriously? not even one reply? wow xda, im pretty saddened by this...
Bump
It would be nice to unclutter the status bar
Mostly no one has probably replied because you cant get rid of them. You could get replace the current PNGs with completely transparent ones. But then you'd just have a big blank spot between the signal status and the time.
thats what i thought i would hear. thanks for your reply

I have a apk ready I can test this with real quick.
I'll report back
well, using a 1x1 transparent image did the trick with getting them to vanish, didn't break anything.
However, the 1x1 didn't seem to matter either, there is a gap, but it still looks good.

I just took the current image and made it 100% transparent.
could also replace the file with a 1x1 transparent image.
either way yields the same results.
if you still want the file, pm me and I'll link it.
+1 for the ability to get rid of some icons, the clock and battery indicator in particular.
I have trouble getting the Curvefish battery widget to update properly. Running Fresh 1.1 with MDK 1.2
Could anybody put this battery icon in the notification bar. This image is a from a Desire ROM. Don't know if it's possible. Just like that icon a lot better..

theres a lot of battery icons in the nexus one forums that work w/Metamorph. ive tried three different ones so far and they all worked. just make sure to nandroid backup before you try!

i'm having problems finding the ones you're talking about in the nexus one forums..
KSPEC Monster has that icon for battery but be warned it will change a lot on your ROM more than just themeing the icon.

you can unzip kspecs monster, extract the framework-res.apk and push it to your /system/framework. will give you the battery icon without messing with your rom....
Look for BattGrn_statBarBlkXML.zip on the Nexus one section and use Metamorph to apply it and you will get the battery Icon you want. I did so and it worked perfectly:
how do you get the % to show up though?
thanks
Unfortunately I have not found one with that.
Can someone with more expertise give any guidance on how to apply metamorphs from the nexus forums to the Evo? I thought I was doing everything right, but the battery percentage still isn't showing up...just the graphics.
The Battery portion isnt available on the EVO it would seem, it is on the Nexus one by simply using SpareParts, however there is no option for this in the SpareParts on the EVO.
BakedSnack ROM has that battery icon for the EVO. It has some other modified icons as well, but all are nice.
Be warned though that if might have side effects with whatever ROM you are running if you move the resource file, such as location bar indicator above Rosie if you are using Espresso Rosie.

BLACK AND WHITE TB MOD
Please visit my site for this, due to limitations of having 2 of the same filename attached.
Here, I have for you, is a mod that is designed to change the icons of your EvDO/1xRTT icons, battery icon, and signal icon. There is a little more work to be done but here is what I have to offer right this moment.
Screenies are attached.
FOR Darch 2.8 ONLY (if you dont have darch 2.8, skip this red step): Unzip the darch28.zip to reveal a framework-res.apk, then continue.
Nandroid backup.
You will need to clear dalvik cache.
Mount your /system in read-write mode.
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
Reboot
First boot will take a little longer, dalvik has to be rebuilt.
Full instructions on this page. (Please, if you like my work take a second to visit my site )
reserved for meeeeeeee
reserved for future use.
How many reserves do u need? Lol
Enough to put my work in for different ROMs/Android versions, etc maybe?
accepting requests for graphical mods. Please let me know what you want!

Yup. Gimme a bit. I am gonna release a new version as well for CM6 that makes the signal and battery icons not be so close together.
Those are looking good man. Real good.
Is it possible that you could make a black & white version (mainly the battery icon)? This is sick, but the colors won't fit my theme.
Keep up the good work though, looks solid.

Yeah I thought about making a black and white version. Should go well with the option to be able to change the color of the % of battery left in CM6. Gimme a day or so, I'll knock it out

Sweet man. Just to be sure ... this will only update the icons? Or the entire taskbar? I'm using BlackMod and I don't want to lose the cool Android shade that pops down.

If I was given the framework-res.apk from that specific ROM then it will not change anythign but the icons.
5/14--see update in post #6
I had been asked to share a recent battery mod/theme that I made for another member, as he thought others may be interested as well. Some of you may already know of my other works, but this battery is fairly new. I started from scratch and built my own templates and the result is the smoothest batter I've ever made. This version's color was inspired from the original C battery, in that it changes from blue to green, yellow, orange, then red. But it does so gradually...each image is a different color. Looks great
I mention theme earlier because I also changed a few other things, mostly in the status bar, to a blue color. Primarily the signal strengths, but a few others too like the progress bar for one.
Anyway, here's the file, just flash in recovery**THIS IS FOR CM7-RC2**
CM7rc2-EVO-SmoothC-signed.zip
Also thought I make this up for the evo as well while I was at it.....This is for those who like the stock look. I call it a Better Gingerbread Battery, lol. It very closely resembles the stock battery, but has percentage as well as enhanced charging animation. Also in this zip is a green progress bar (for volume, browser, etc).
And I actually have a couple shots of this battery:

Gosh I forgot all about this thread. While I can't say for sure that they don't since I've never tried, but I'd highly doubt they would. I'll make it up right quick for the latest stable release.
OK, here is the above pictured, Better Battery built on the CM 7.0.2.1 release for supersonic Just flash in recovery.
CM7.0.2.1_EVO-BetterBattery.zip
Also made up my smoothC battery for 7.0.2.1
CM7.0.2.1-EVO-smoothC.zip
This is what smothC looks like, albeit a bit better on the device
Please remember that the themes in the theme chooser will have an adverse affect on my battery mods since their themed battery is pushed on top. If you do want to experiment with those themes, I've removed the batteries in the stock themes below so they will no longer interfere with my battery mods. Each app is packaged separately as well as both together

Hi guys and girls, I have a tf101 and woud like to be able to make the status bar transparent like the one in this HD2 mod:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1031106
Is this something that can be done? If so please help by posting a how to, if already done please post a link to the right thread to goto.
Thanks,

That is for cyanogen mod 7...
The status bar isn't even handled the same way in honeycomb.
Is it possible on the transformer (or any other honeycomb device)?
Maybe, that method won't work though, it was done (most likely) by making an image transparent, I don't think the status bar background in honeycomb is an image (could be wrong here) but in the code somewhere instead.
And I know it isn't in the same location...
Good luck finding a honeycomb version of this, it would be a cool mod, but unlikely.
You may be able to create a theme with transparent images for the taskbar, this can be done using any version of photoshop.

These aren't status bar backgrounds. The pcb background is part of the actual button/notification. I know because I've pulled this theme apart and looked at the images.
