flashable clear taskbar

Stock clear taskbar by Rujelus on first page. If you are themed this will revert lockscreen, notification window etc
--
Hi, I was wondering if anyone can make a flashable clear/100% transparent taskbar and clear/100% transparent sense bottom bar launcher.
Ideally, the bottom bar launcher would be something like
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=385691&d=1282488980
in burst's plurstaralpha theme, which is transparent but with visible interactive buttons
The taskbar would be similar to riptide's current

In similar threads i've seen at least half a dozen people ask for these things, so i wouldn't be alone in using these.
Anyone who can help, it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

I've been wanting JUST a clear taskbar for a while now. I don't want 4 million changes in a theme package, it's always one or two things I want. Wish they'd do a lot more splitting up of the mods so you can pick and choose what all you want.

I really want the clear bottom bar launcher. And the 3d app drawer.

What would it take to get all the devs together to create a Theme Kitchen?
Or maybe just the top 5 devs or something. Because there are some really nice themes out there, and like jlechner says, the ability to pick and choose parts out of themes would be really nice.

Going to try something, my method won't be flashable but it might work...
Kitchen definitely would be nice though.

you can get that stuff using launcher pro. but you want to keep the htc sense also right?

pretty sure konikub made one, as I have flashed it. I dont know if I have the zip but im pretty sure if you searched konikubs posts you will find what you are looking for. Here is his 2.2 theme post, not sure if its in here:

EDIT: I have something called DC-FRESH_AloysiusClearTaskbar-signed, search the forum for it if that is what you are looking for

Here you go, this is completely stock except the two things that you wanted. As far as making a kitchen, I have no clue on that.
RUJELUS22_Clear.zip

How do I remove this? I flashed it and it looks horrible. It's messed up when I swype down to see my notifications. I'm using Fresh 3.1.0.1

Reapply whatever previous theme you had to replace the framework-res package that made these changes i think.
It looks good, and I do appreciate the work you put into this Rujelus, thank you
unfortunately, since I had manup's theming, it reverted my clear lockscreen, clear notification bar, clear calendar widget back to stock and left black bordering around some of the smooth revolution battery, signal etc icons.
I thought framework theming was seperate lines that were added/removed but looks like its more complicated than i thought : /

Like I said this is completely default except the 2 edits. These edits are just pictures inside framework-res and com.htc.resources there is no way that I know of to add something like this to the theme you already using unless you do the edits to the files that you are using right now. When you do an update.zip it will replace the whole file not just the edited parts.

Oh : (
Thank you for your efforts

[Q] Ongoing event, Dropdown text color problems

I've installed/customized a theme exactly as I want with Black status bar, and black pulldown background with white text. I properly Deodexed and used the compatible services.jar, however, the following events still show up with black text in the dropdown list:
-In-Call timer status
-Download Progress
-Any item that is an event in progress
I've tried 4 different services.jar and all of them had the same problem, I tried editing the status bar XML files, only to have the phone refuse to load.
I notice 90% of themes leave the dropdown tabs gray, and I assume this is the reason, but does anyone have the files necessary to make all text in the dropdown white?

If you want to attach your framework-res.apk I can give this a go. I'm pretty sure this is in the /res/layout/status_bar_latest_notification.xml file or something titled similiarly.
Anyways.... I can give you some help if wanted...

I've attached my framework-res.apk, let me know what you can do. Thank You!

No problem. I will give this a go after work.

In looking at your framework...is this the current framework that you thought SHOULD have the white text? Or a unmodified framework. In looking at it...it looks like the text should be white... At least from what theming I have done... You have white (ffffff) set in the correct places for the dropdown notification bar in /res/layout/status_bar_latest_event_content.
What ROM/theme are you using? Also are you on the 2.3.34 update? i'm still on 2.3.15... So I don't want to throw a framework on my phone that may cause issues =?
If you can give me some more info... I was digging through it tonight.
Thanks

I am using the 2.3.340 firmware, standard rom but rooted and deodexed.
I used that exact framework with 2.3.15 with the same issue. My theme is nearly perfect except for that, so it's kind of annoying.

Hm... I'll keep looking over it. So this current framework SHOULD have white text but didn't?
Try also looking at the styles.xml and colors.xml in the /res/layout folder. I.m winning if things need to match up and something in one of those files is overwriting your white color

Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the services.jar hold the information to change the colors in the drop down events?

I'm pretty sure it just controls color for the clock, ticker, and the "titles" for the sections in the drop-down such as "latest" or "ongoing". It doesn't actually change the text color of notifications in the drop down.

Can u help me too

I had this issue with derezzed too, a lot of ongoing event text colors are controlled by each individual application (something I saw with dropbox and facebook uploads) so the options are to either customize each application as you get it, ignore the unreadable text, or simply change the .png to a different color that provides a similar feel while being able to read black text... or another artsy thing would be to use rounded corners to make each notification look like an individual bubble instead of a continuous pane

totally didnt see how old this post was... oops

CM7 Notification Bar on CM6?

Basically the title says it all. I've flashed CM7, and really liked the aesthetic of it, but it was just a bit too buggy for me. So I'm back at CM6, but I really dislike the white notification bar of CM6, and love the way CM7 looks. Is there anyway to get the same color scheme as 7? I don't necessarily need new icons, but would really like the color scheme to be the same. I've tried changing the notification bar to black... but it's actually a gradient, not a pure black. I'm also not positive of the hex numbers used for the pull down bar, etc. Has anyone themed this up, or knows how to accomplish it? Thanks.

[Q] Remove/edit AOSP Froyo gradient background while making call?

Anyone know where this is located, also the froyo file that requires editing for the 'volume' level indicator/progress bar [orange in AOSP]
Doing my head in lol! gradient looks terrible on our phones! or mine anyway

Phone/drawable hdpi then incall Gradient its named.

Im noticing there is no simple way to use a custom background for the menu's etc like sony implimented

The progress_horizontal.xml which controls the progress bar colour is in framework-res/drawable folder.

yep thats what ive used, assumed it was diffrent in froyo, used the original one i changed on my 2.1 theme, still orange on this ;\ annoying

Battery Icons

Figured I'd take my first stab at Framework mods in the form of Battery Icons!!!
Alright, with all I've been seeing about Honeycomb recently I decided to go with a hexagon shape as the base.
Did some searching, but it seems you cannot make a flashable file to change png's inside a .apk? would love for someone to prove me wrong there. Soo here are the .png files for you to change em yourself.
Lemme know what you think.
Black Notification Bar
White-on-Green
Black-on-White
White Notification Bar
White-on-Black
Radial-White-on-Black
Taking requests for other colors.

Second Set
More Battery Icons

Nice work.

Doh! now I find the 10% increment mod... looks like its time to start over...

Thank you
