Clear Taskbar - Hero CDMA Themes and Apps

I did a search, found one but the icons are changed. Does anyone have a .zip to have a clear taskbar (completely see through bar at the top) and leave whatever current icons I have on?

unless its metamorphed then it will change ur icons at the top. the png is in the framework files so what ever the framework file where someone changes the png will also change the icons that are in the framework file. like mentioned above the only other alternative is to use a metamorph to just change that one file.

Can you point me in the direction to that through metamorph?

[REQ] xml edit for missed calls background color/shadow

Using DC v2.06. I have a clear lockscreen, as shown below. Right now the notifications come up transparent (missed call, etc) at the bottom of the screen. With the clear lock, it's very heard to read the text. Hence why I added the extra black bar at the bottom of the phone, to make them readable.
However, that bar is ugly at the bottom! Is it possible for someone to figure out a way, through the xml file, to add a black shadow to the white notification text, so that it will still be readable with a clear lockscreen? See the default date/time text on the default lockscreen for an example of what I'm after.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

You mean like this .
When no notifications:
Missed call:
Press while screen locked:
I applied a black background, 50% transparent, that will only appear when a notification message exists.
Replace the attached in your 'layout' folder and you are good to go (removed the .txt extension).

Everything transparent is basically the completely clear lockscreen, the above adds the shadow for when notifications appear, so that the text is more readable.

Awesome. Thank you so very much! I'll have to try this in the morning.
I seem to be having a problem that I didn't notice before using this...
When my alarm goes off, I can't disable it from the lockscreen. I have to unlock my phone before I can shut off the alarm.
JsChiSurf, could you let me know if you have the same issue? I'm not saying 100% sure that this is what caused it, but it's the only change I've made recently.
Thanks!

The XML files are compiled binaries. You have to use a hexeditor to modify / patch the locations in the binary you wish to change.
Is anyone else having the alarm issue with this? I have to unlock my lockscreen in order to turn off the alarm.

Not sure what format they need to be in, but here is what appears to be the .psd template for those icons:
http://robbiekhan.co.uk/root/android/Android Launcher Pro Custom Icon Template Text Version.psd
They need to be in png format. That file is used to make custom icons with photoshop I believe. Unfortunately I don't have a computer so.. i need the png files.
You all just didn't look hard enough. There is a directory for all of his icons. Took me all of half a minute to find.

The files can be edited in photoshop, the only layers visible should be the text that you want to see as the icon.
After you get them how you'd like, save them as PNG files and copy them to your SD card and you're good to go.

[Q] Black Lockscreen Sliders

Just wondering if someone is already working on changing the lockscreen sliders to a glossy black, moto sliders are fugly. I have seen many posts for people requesting this in other threads and being a noob to theming I have no idea where to start.
What is the name of the file that needs to be modified and in which .apk is it located? I might make this my first "theme" project if I find the file and if this has not already been done.
The sliders are part of framework. Pull framework-res.apk from /system/framework and open the apk in any zip program like 7zip or WinRAR. Then look in the drawable-hdpi and drawable-land-hdpi folders and you should see the sliders. Then edit in Photoshop or something. Put back in framework-res.apk then push back to the phone and reboot.

Not that simple...they're .9.png's. if you just edit them in photoshop they'll mess things up and not turn out right.

nope.. when saved in photo editor it loses its .9 properties...
have to used draw9patch in android sdk to apply guides..
just decompile original apk with apktool or apkmanager to get the original showing you where the guides are located
I changed the colors of the sliders from the dark green whatever color to red using photoshop and they work fine.

You got lucky somehow. All .9's have a 1 pixel border that exist as guides to the OS of where to stretch and where to anchor the image. Changing the color can remove/alter these guides. Rarely can you just change the color of a .9 and expect it to work/appear as it should. I would look at the thread with the how to video for draw9patch if you want to edit the lock sliders or any other .9 image.
Thanks for the info.

Something like this?
BTW this if fully functional, drop it in your framework (rename it!) and push it. If its what you need let me know, ill finish the rest.
Black sliders
If you see page four ... Clear / cant see sliders
you might be able to use ninja morph to apply these, or you need to know how to add files to an apk and push back. These go in framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi
Dont add these to a decompiled apk! drop these straight into the apk with your perfered method.
Yeah that is what im looking for...if you wanna finish em that would be awesome!

I downloaded your theme and you successfully changed the color, but the slider doesnt slide. But it is still functional. Just doesnt actually show the bar sliding. This is where the .9.png comes into play
My current update.zip that's up right now? The sliders in that don't work? Every one else reports no problems. Could you be more specific.

I just decompiled my whole theme and checked the sliders. They are compiled and working correctly. Something might of went screwy on your install.

lol, nevermind. I was thinkin you did Froyo Dynomite. The slider doesnt slide in that one.
You can easily changed the color of the sliders. But you have to decompile first. If you just unzip the apk it loses the 9 patch info(see below). If you have a theme and the slider does not slide then this is the reason.

Stuck while making a new theme because of an icon!

Hi everyone! Im making a theme for Gingerbread for the Galaxy Tab and am stuck because of an icon I cant get rid of or find where it is! Can someone help and tell me WHERE the icon (below attached) that pops up on the task bar during Media Scanning, is hidden? I looked everywhere, all system APKs I can think of including framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk and cannot find it anywhere. Its driving me crazy!
I've successfully modded stat_notify_sdcard.png, stat_notify_sdcard_prepare.png and stat_notify_sdcard_usb.png from framework-res.apk and during PREPARE SD CARD operations the new updated icons show up.
However during MEDIA SCANNING operations, the old shows up again, no matter what. This stock icon I want to replace is hiding still somewhere else (..I cleaned all caches multiple times just in case and doesn't fix it)
Thanks in advance for the tip!
maybe you find in under music player ?

You're right again, thank you very very much!! Im almost done with all the graphics except one and editing some XMLs:
First, the download successful graphic was indeed in the vending.apk but when the download is not successful the standard red warning triangle is displayed. This graphic is not part of the vending.apk so im assuming its pulled from the standard stat_sys_warning.png from framework-res.apk?
Finally, I need to change and that is the size of the fonts for the date display on the top right of the taskbar. Do you know which XML or file I need to edit to change that font size?

I do believe the status bar clock is controlled by the services.jar and not a particular. Xml file, but ive never edited that clock so i am not 100% positive. Im horrible with smali code. Sorry! Yes the stat-notify-error.png in framework-res would control the statusbar icon for errors while downloading apps.

It's been a while but I'm pretty sure that one is either framework-res or twframework-res (if you're still on a TW ROM). I thought I saw it in amongst the stat_sys_* images, but I could be completely wrong. I don't think I've tried editing that one.
EDIT: By the way, check in status_bar_expanded.xml and status_bar.xml for some parameters regarding the clock, but be careful cos they can ruin a theme (everything from graphical artifacts to bootloops) quite easily.
