I made a Boba background for the notifications drop down screen if anyone is interested. I used ninjamorph and the instructions found by searching "How-To: Droid in Notification Drop down bar" on this site. (it wouldn't let me put the link, sorry) Enjoy

Sic! you need to add some transparency to that thing!
Thanks... and you're right, transparency would make it perfect. I'll have to figure that out. I'm a tile installer so just getting it to look like that was like splitting the atom for me, but that's why god created google.

Tried to search around but no catch so far.
Hello, as per the title I'm
looking for an application that is able to map the pull down notification bar to the search button as sometimes when we are having fullscreen applications on we would like to maybe take a peek on the bar for any updates.

I like this idea a lot!
Perhaps we could move the search button/app inside the notification pull-down menu?

That's an awesome idea...I always hate leaving the game/app I'm in to check my new text or something like that. This could be very difficult though..
great idea, its hard to grab it sometimes on the incredible
yeah, it will be great if there an app that can do so, but I'm no dev, so I can only put up a request and hope to get a response from people that are able to do so.

#2 what is the name of the file of the pop-up that comes up at the bottom of the screen? The one that alerts when Su has been granted, apps loaded from os etc.
Any help would be.....helpful.
Thanks.

The files start with "popup" iirc. There are 3 of them. One for top, bottom, and middle of the bubble. And if you didn't know already its in framework-res.apk.
Edit: actually that might be for the big popup. The smaller one is only one file I think. You will see a picture of a grey square but I'm not sure if the name starts with popup.

Its not a pop-up. Its called the toast frame and is called as such in the framework: toast_frame.9.png.
i found one called bottom_bar but its rectangle and the one im talking about is rounded.
thank you very much! i do appreciate it
Hello, I made a theme on MIUI, but for some reason I can't get it working on Weapon G2X..
I got the notification bar icons to work, but I don't really know how to mod the drop down notification bar. I have all the icons in the MTZ in the SystemUI file.
Could someone help me port this over?
I attached Backup_0.mtz (the theme from MIUI).
SystemUI.apk (My modded SystemUI.apk which has the notification bar icons from the MIUI theme)
(the framework that must be modded I'm assuming is framework-res.apk? Or how else do I mod the notification drop down bar?)
Thanks for any help!

Holy hell. This might bring me over to CM7 again. Once you MIUI its hard to go back. I wish the main apps like the dialer and messaging app would be installable on other roms.

I miss MIUI too. Unfortunately for me stuff was just not working at all, 3g connectivity broke, and certain things wouldn't work properly.
On weapon most of the pulldown is in systemui.apk. the other basics is in frameworkres. I have alot going on lately but if I have time I will look at it.

It's getting there. I just have a problem with the time being in white so you can't see it, and blotchy black colors on the drop down bar.
Also, the status bar when closed just looks like a purely white straight across line. I wanna make it a little more gradient towards the bottom. Anyone good with doingthings like that?
Edit:: How do I edit the color of the text of "Emergency" (I think it's the carrier name).
And also edit the colors of the background of the status bar expanded? I've changed every png so far. I'd like to make the status bar black until you pull it down, then it turns white. Possible?
It is possible. The easiest way I have found is using partially transparent status bars. As for the text colors its in various XML files. Their names pretty much will give them away.
For the backgrounds of where it shows notifications like download and such is app_item_background.9 but if your talking about the bar itself I think you will have to make semi major mods

Dang :S
I can't open the xml files, it always comes up as random squares. I'm using notepad++ btw.
Any reason why they're coming up weird?
And yeah, like I changed the bottom tab of the drop down bar, and I changed the background for text and for the quick toggles, but the actual bar still seems to be black on the background. The things I changed just seem to be overlays. Do you know how to change the actual entire bar?
You have to decompile Apks before you can edit the xml with notepad++

Whoa that sounds complicated.
I'll google around how to decompile apks. After decompiling and editing xml files can I just drag and drop them back into the apk? Or do I need to recompile.
Yes you would have to recompile them.

There is a great thread for theming by theimpalar747 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=916814
If I remember correctly I use apk manager 4.9 to decompile and recompile. You have to set up some Java to work on certain system apk files, and the resources.arsc file can bite you in the a$$ sometimes. I replied to you in my thread btw, did they answer your question?
I also like the villainrom theming script, makes it easy to make flashable zips. But that is just my 2¢.

I'm slowly piecing it together. For some reason though I tried changing all the png's and it still doesn't change the actual color from black to white.
I'm wondering now if it's even a png for the true background of the status bar.
I will definitely check out the application for compiling/decompiling, hopefully I can get this thing working lol
You know, honestly, the new Weapon 2.7 theme I can totally live with.
If someone of greater knowledge would like to take over my project though, I wouldn't object lol. I just don't really know what I'm doing, I've had my phone stuck in bootloops like 5 times now -.-
If you want and I get some free time I will look at porting it to 2.7 for you once I get through updating all my crap.

That would be amazing!!
Whenever you have time that would be great
I'm done trying it out for the night. I'll continue testing PNGs tomorrow.
So far I have all the icons ported, and some proper white backgrounds. But then there's random black blotches and the clock color is white, gotta change it to black.
Thank you for all your help so far!

On weapon you can change clock color with the edttweaks app. No need to stress over that. Framework.jar is where you would normally change it.

Hey Guys and Gals,
How difficult would it be to edit the 14 toggle mod to remove the line indicator and just leave the icon to light up when pressed? I like a bit more room on my notification bar and this would be perfect. I tried editing it myself. I've done some theme work but I can't really find the correct places to remove to re-size it. If anyone wouldn't mind taking a shot at it I'd appreciate it or tell me how.

To resize I don't think it would be a matter of removing code, but altering it, or altering the dimensions of the images.
If you want more screen real estate I'd recommend changing your pixel density.

You should see the ticker call screen when you are in any app, and you should see the default "full screen" screen when within the launcher itself...

Also they've released a swiftkey flow beta. you should check it out!

Wow! SwiftKey Flow is pretty sweet! Works great, especially for someone like me that can't type to save my life! Kinda memory heavy, but doesn't seem to slow the phone down to much. I do think I'll be using this one! Lol! Thanks!
Sent from my SCH-I400 using xda app-developers app
XjokiX7: Lol, it took me a long time to figure out smali, since I didn't want to learn Java first haha... I've said this before though, a good place to start would be looking at, say, the ticker, in action, and then look at the smali files for it... That way, you get a good picture of what smali code does what! Of course, it doesn't help when there's a lot of files for the ticker in services, but you can combat that with common sense and some detective skills
ciscogee: I know this is probably late, but how was moving!
Oh, and to both roaddog665 and XjokiX7, i freaking love Swiftkey Flow, haha I enjoy the "just keep going" feature, with not having to lift your finger up between words it's crazzyyyy!
Oh Oh, I added in a custom section for the Ticker within TSMParts for all the different settings I'm creating... Some option include turning on/off and customizing the Quick Launch screen, changing the sleep text, and what I am working on now is having options to remove/hide the weather icon/history button It's not ready to be released though, i'm just keeping you posted
