What does this contain?
A modified /system/framework/framework-res.apk:
-res/drawable-hdpi/statusbar_background.png made to be flat black.
-res/layout/status_bar.xml hex edited for both calls to 08 00 00 1C to change 00 00 00 to FF FF FF, so notification text will appear as white.
A modified /system/framework/services.jar/classes.dex:
-com/android/server/status/StatusBarIcon.smali to make the clock text from black to white.
-com/android/server/status/StatusBarService.smali to make the date text from black to white.
Install Instructions

-Make a nandroid backup
-Apply the .zip
-Reboot
Download(s)
-Flash in recovery-

Morph
-Apply with MetaMorph-
Transparent Battery Images
This will give you transparent battery images for when the phone is not charging if you do not want to have a battery image and percent when using the battery percent mod.

Desire Status Bar
This will give you just the statusbar_background.9.png from the Desire ROM. People were asking for it in this thread (I think) and in my desire bar thread.
http://android-theme-minus.googlecode.com/files/Desire_Status_Bar.zip
F.A.Q.
Q. How do I get back to a stock notification bar?
A. Either apply a nandroid if you made one or reflash your ROM.
Q. Is there an easy way to tell a file used in MetaMorph from a file flashed in recovery?
A. The size will be substantially larger for a file flashed in recovery. Those files remain roughly around 3MBs. My morphs are usually much smaller and usually only a few KBs or so.
Disclaimer
Nandroid before flashing this so that if something goes wrong, or you want to go back to how your phone was before, then you easily can. Also, if it breaks something, and I don't know how to fix it, then I will say "Apply your nandroid," and if you reply with something similar to "I didn't make one for 'insert your reason for not making a nandroid here.'" Then I will tell you to wipe your phone, and take it as a lesson learned. Also, I am not responsible for any ill things that come from using this. One last thing NANDROID FIRST.
Can you post a screenshot? And maybe if you have a spare time use hero battery icon?

imagine your status bar black lol. its not on my phone anymore. i just tested out the file to make sure it would work then went back to my theme. this was just a request from a user and felt i would share it with other people that wanted it. also, the hero battery probably won't look good scaled up to 38x38 from 25x25. almost all of my old theme icons didn't.
Awesome theme.

I use ddms in the tools folder of the SDK.
Not really as much of a theme as it is a modified services.jar, /system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi/statusbar_background.9.png, and /system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/layout/status_bar.xml.

Also lose reboot option when power button is pushed and notification tray is no longer clear
Yes I was a little quick to say it worked (I just really checked it booted). It borked superuser permissions app and terminal too.
I'd probably suggest we wait for certified cm5 compatible themes
CM5 beta 2 seem very tricky to theme, no luck so far.
But i am noob so the pro's may have better chance.
The reason it breaks so many things is that it is built from the template enomther provided about 2 weeks ago which doesn't have all the modifications that cyanogen added to it. I haven't installed CM beta 2 yet, but when I do (or whatever the current one is), then I will work on updating my work to it.
UPDATE::8/10/2010 v2.11.3
I finally managed to get this themed after some direction from MicroMod777.
I did not create any images. I only take credit for selecting the specific images already created/pulled by other devs and building the zip.
The status bar is the only major change in this morph. The lockscreen is altered very little by outlining the log sliders (as you can see in the attachment).
Special thanks to the real devs; MicroMod777 (For theming direction), Enomther (for an amazing ROM), stericson (for everything), cyanogen (for everything), etc.
This is a flashable zip that you flash in recovery over the ROM already installed.

I just used that zip on another phone and it worked =/
When you selected this in metamorph did it tell you it was going to change the framework-res and the services.jar?
did it take a few seconds to perform both tasks?
did you reboot after performing the tasks?

I did it on my phone and it worked on a fresh Enom install.
When it asked you to reboot did you actually reboot it yourself or push the "yes" button to reboot?
I just tried this as well, and the same thing. I just pushed the 'yes' button from within metamorph to reboot.
One thing that might be affecting it is I'm back on 2.9.2 but I'd wager that the area you're playing with here are the same.

Hey guys MicroMod advised me that the MMs aren't working with Enom and Cyans ROMs and he helped me with creating a flashable zip from recovery. Check the OP again I've updated the links.
Thanks and sorry for the confusion.

Here's the file for Enom's 2.10.1:
http://share1t.com/krzph3
I pulled my framework-res and took services.jar from Enom's PreThemed white text pack.
My framework-res includes the following changes from the usual Desire Bar here:
1) Modified stock data connectivity icons from my thread (read the thread to see, why I made them).
2) Stock battery indicator (the % are too large for DesireBar battery indicator, doesn't look good IMHO).
The services file is different in length, so I believe there are changes from 2.9.3 to 2.10.1 reflected there.
2708 kernel only!FR-customMTD is needed for G1 of at least 94Mb systemI give to you my leaving present....it seems to be fully working,no lag and everything working..All i did was add some files,delete some,change some bits in the build.prop and in the updater script.
My phone will be gone from tomorrow so i provide no support,no updates and am not responsible for any broken phones etc etc...
The name....
Called EZ FRankenCYAN because its a bit of all their work therefore i take NO CREDIT! All i did was use bits and pieces from each of their efforts.
By the way i did it all on my Magic so big thanks to Astro File Explorer!!
I have been using this for the last couple of days and get a respectable 4.4+ linpack scores,Please enjoy as i have and as the new phones owner will.
Thanks to EzTerry, FireRat and CYANogen team.Hopefully i wont annoy anyone by putting this up!
Im now off to the Hero Section again to goodbye for now!
Usual stuff,wipe before you flash backup etc

I should add that the onpy reason i have posted this is because i didnt want to feel guilty for not sharing...If i was keeping my phone i would go with Ezterry and Firerats rom as its goign to be amazingly fast and clean! I noticed when doign this that the CM coding in files seems quite dirty,as well as EZ/FR having an autoinstaller for various kernels when you flash.
Stick with the newer developers i have a feeling they will support longer than whoever takes over Cmod!
SEE POST 7 FOR FLY ANIMATION! THANKS TO JUANGIL
thanks for sharing, will give it a try
edit 1: you need to mention that FR-customMTD is needed for G1 of at least 94Mb system (thanks)
edit 2: it is indeed Fast, tested with and without compchache and I see no diff, I'll replace ADWLauncher with Launcher2 to see if still as fast as now (I dont want to say it but it feels faster than ezterry's) I even added Fly Animation and it feels faster "foreals"
edit 3: using Launcher2 now and compcache @32mb Jit on, best combination till now, first GB rom I got where LCD density changer works (130/140 looks cool!) this rom can handle the transition animation really snappy
i couldnt flash it. the zip could not be opened or something :s
Could you explain how you got the Cyanogenmod parts into this otherwise stock ROM? I would use EzTerry / Firerat's Gingerbread ROMs, but I really miss the dropdown power widget and the battery percentage. All the rest I could live without.

I am curious to try this out. I downloaded the ROM from the OP but when I went to flash it I also received an error that e:\ bad zip. Does the ROM require custom MTD as stated by Bonesy? If it does require MTD, what are your settings? Also how is the gmail issue with the ROM, does it loop or is all OK?

Thanks for the quick response. I am going to up my MTD partition size from 87 2 to your settings and give it a shot. The battery percentage isnt a showstopper for me. I will let you know how it goes after changing the settings.

And no, I did install CMparts.apk, settings.apk, and settings.provider.apk. It worked in the sense that it showed the Cyanogenmod settings and let me change them, but it didn't actually do anything. And then after reboot they disappeared.
It doesnt wok like that i used the CM7 port as the base then added in some of ezterrys parts, this file isnt signed as i made it on my magic with NO PC its a shame ive sold my magic now i would like to continue

It's the fastest GingerBread I've ever seen... But There is one small bug. I'm from poland (you can see it on every my post- language problems )... I'm from Poland and I see, that keyboard layouts don't match (what I type on hardware keyboard don't match what I get. I mean this: [email protected]#$%^&*()_[];',./-=\ signs...). Is there any fix for that? And where is the "?" sign?
Bad zip is caused by wrong digest (signature) of the package. I've had the same. Sign it and it would be ok
Most recent mod on post #7
you can easily add a font (also battery and so on) to a ROM (tested only on WB's CM6 V06, but I think it should work for other ones too) by yourself:
1. just upload the framework-res.apk (lokated in system/framework) from your rom to http://uot.dakra.lt/ (under kitchen/file upload)
2. make the changes you want to have in the tab "kitchen"
3. dl the output file
4. afterwards flash it via xrecovery.
Note:
if that doesn't work for you,
1. manually mount data and and system in partition tools
2. afterwards flash the zip.
This ist the way, i, simacid and playgunsta "made" the new battery icons and font for WB's CM6.
I suggest we put our modded files here so we can all post our creations and so everyone can choose by himself what he likes, without searching the whole threats.
Note:
When making a post, please add for which rom it is and which version of it. also post a screenshot when possible and add what you have modded.
Update: seek4 just confirmed that everything is working fine for him except the power toggle widgets in notification area, so keep going and don't hesitate to post your creations.
Update2: kevjef420 noted, that if you use Amend scripting in the tab "file upload", everything works fine without mounting system and data manually. Thanks for that.
regards
So, ill start this with my "mod":
Rom: Cyanogenmod 6.1.3 V06 by Wolfbreak (don't use on other roms)
Mod: only the Battery icon (without percent, so you can choose the color with Cyanogenmod settings)
Edit: also works on hotfix V06.1 by WB (because there are no changes in framework)
Screenshot: in attachmend
I tried to use this source 3 days ago. Uploaded my framework-res.apk from WB rom, changed only battery icons, flashed my cooked framework-res.apk using xRec, nothing changed. I don't know what I did wrong, but its seems not working for me.
But I didn't do this

I also didn't have anything change the first time. What you need to do is in the screen where you upload your framework on the lefthand side there is 3 options that you can select. By default it has the first and last option selected but you need to select the second and third not the first one. I don't remember what they are right now since I am not near my computer.
This worked for me. I created a nice theme I will upload it here latter when I get a chance.

So are you saying that the transparency setting works with CM6 roms?
cause it says in the kitchen that it is for gingerbread roms only.
oh and this is the option that I checked that got my mod to work without having to make any other changes. (second option)
"Amend scripting. Old scripting, compatible with old recoveries. Use this if you having problem with flashing (no changes, error 0) or have not HTC Desire phone"
I have been using this kitchen for a few weeks now with no problems since I have started checking this option in the file upload tab.
thanks for sharing it with everyone.

No. What I did is under kitchen/status bar i ticked the background only, set the color to be fully black and choosen the transparency to be 75%. As you can see in my screenshot, it worked. Don't tick the option "Enable transparency in statusbar".
Thanks, i'll put it in my 1st post.

Nope, 2.1 fw-res is too big to upload. There is a size limit on Uot. You could make one for a different Rom then dig out the icons. It's a pain but it works.

hi,
thanks so much for this thread, it is awesome and has really helped me out!!
can someone just answer a few little things for me....
i am running wolfbreaks 6.1.3 v07, and i have tried to load a few different boot animations using the kitchen, but it never works, it just says sony erricsson?? i checked in my system/media, and there is a bootanimation.zip - do i need to specifically install it or should it automatically have done that when i installed the kitchen zip? (i had to mount system and data in xrecovery, if that means anything?)
also, is there a way similar to kitchen that i can edit the little icons that appear next to SHUT DOWN, REBOOT, AIRPLANE MODE etc? atm mine are grey, but i seen on the kitchen that they can be coloured? is the reason that they are grey due to my framework-res settings? and if so, is there a way i can change it?
thanks in advance!

if im not wrong...WB added a Tweaked that killed the boot animation. u can check with him. its called...f...something tweaked.
edit: fugu tweaked?? well u can double check with WB
Themed to look like the Gingerbread (2.3.x) Motoblur Builds from devices like:
Droid X/X2/2/3, Photon 4G, Triumph, and Atrix
This will work on BravoX Rom as well as stock Bravo 2.2.1 (as tested by abhi897)
I have only tested it on BravoX RC2 so I can't guarantee any results, anything you do to damage your phone is not my responsibility.
This modifies all of the framework-res.apk and some of the services.jar
What it changes:
Status Bar & icons
Popup menus
Buttons
Drop down menus
"loading" spinners
and other things i can't remember
Requirements:
Root
BandroidX's bootstrap recovery or Sndinit.apk (below) or have ADB set up with knowledge
some knowledge on what you need to do if something goes wrong with your phone (e.g. SBF, nandroid restore)
To apply:(With bootstrap recovery or 2ndInit)
Download the flashable zip below to sdcard
Boot into CWM recovery through BandroidX's recovery app
make a nandroid backup
Select install zip from sdcard
Select choose zip from sdcard
Select the downloaded .zip.zip
select yes to confirm
wait for installation to finish (a few seconds)
Reboot (will take a while because of the modded services.jar, so BE PATIENT!) Pull Battery and boot up again if boot takes longer than 5 minutes
Enjoy your theme!
(With ADB)
Download the .zip to you computer
Extract the services.jar and framework-res.apk to where your ADB directory is
Plug your phone in with phone portal and ADB debugging enabled (settings>applications>development)
Open up your command prompt
Type these commands (after each, press enter):
Code:
cd [directory of adb and .jar and .apk]
adb remount
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb push services.jar /system/framework/services.jar
adb reboot
(reboot will take awhile because you are modding the services.jar, so BE PATIENT!) Pull Battery and boot up again if boot takes longer than 5 minutes
Things needed in upcoming updates:
Change some white font to black for easier reading (such as pull down menus)
If there is anything else, let me know
Changelog:1.4
Updated all status bar .pngs to match the newest builds from Motorola
1.3
Changed progress bar to have grey outline like the Droid X
1.2
Changed animations and other .pngs to better match the Droid X with 2.3.3
1.1
Changed status bar date color to white
Made orange pull-bar (in 3rd pic below) blue
Made download progress bar blue
1.0
Initial release
Thanks to:
BandroidX for the awesome ROM and bootstrap
Daneshm90 for the .zip creator http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=717437
EXTRA- if you want Gingerbread Market notifications and Gmail notifications follow these steps:
Note: you don't need my status bar mod, it will work on any phone.
Download Gingerbread_icons_market_and_gmail.zip from below
put on sdcard
uninstall market and gmail
rename the vending.apk and gmail.apk (located in system/app/) to vending.bak and gmail.bak
boot into CWM recovery
Wipe Cache
Select install from zip from sdcard
select choose zip from sdcard
select gingerbread_icons_market_and_gmail.zip
install

Very Cool, I have DroidX and wow it looks just like it in the pics! I am going to install this on my dev bravo and check it out.
One note to users, I would not use the services.jar w/o my ROM, the services.jar is deodexed and you cant mix a dedodexed services.jar w/ a non-deodexed framework, you will bootloop.

This is Very Cool Jorgonv!!!
Jorg, is there a way we can get an Odexed version of the "services.jar" file, for those who wish to use the stock rom?
How does it run on the hardware? Any issues so far?
I will probably flash back over to the latest RC and test it out.
Lately, i have preferred staying on the stock Rom, as it seems to score better in Quadrant... (i think maybe because of the deodexing, it needs to do more at start-up, leaving some resources still open, or used.)
Never-the-less, I think the Rom bandroidx has compiled for is is am amazing piece of work, and only the beginning to our list of supported Os versions!!!
I can't wait to load this theme up on the RC.
Will test it out and see how it goes!!
bandroidx,
Do you foresee any work with a complete vanilla gingerbread, or higher, version of android being cooked?
This bootloader situation seems kind of sticky to me, what kind of keywords would you recommend i search for, in efforts to overcome this limitation?
Thanks!!
I love it!
Two requests/questions:
*It seems like my "synching" notification icon never goes away?
* Any plans on including a circle battery icon?

Glad you like it. I've seen some people with the same syncing icon problem and the only solution was to wipe data.
I'm not planning to making it with a circle icon, this theme is only droid x 2.3.
I will be making more themes in the future, possibly with circular battery icons.

I tried to make an odexed version before bandroid's rom came out, but had no success. I could try again
I dont think the odexed version would make the phone run any slower. I am running the rom fine at 1 ghz and no lag. The only difference is the first boot-up after wiping the cache. after that, it boots up at the normal speed

you should read android central's new piece of quadrant benchmarks. real world feel is probably a better indicator and the rom feels faster.
the rom removes bloatware and services that would usually run and waste memory like voice commander nad others, the deodexing if anything should speed things up.
i am starting to think odexing is just a way for a oem to lock things down a little more. but i really dont know too much about beyond the basics.
quadrant can be swayed far too much by IO, and io can be effected so easily in so many ways.
either way, i wouldnt concern yourself too much with quadrant scores when deciding to run the rom or not. quadrant can be a good indicator like when overclocking (and nothing else has changed except clock speed) but when it comes to different rom's I am not sure its as good of an indicator. I do own quadrant advanced though so I can run it on the rom and see what scores differ specifically, i am betting on IO, but who knows.
Tell you what...I'm not fond of the cost of these projects but I got a $30 donation if somehow you can change the swype color path to red...

Swype Beta, or the stock bravo one?
True. I flashed over to rc2, only, and it scored near the same rang as the stock..
I concur with the topic of real world feel, and benchmarks.. Benchmarks can only tell you so much..
Well, my interest is more towards breaking the boot loader moto has placed upon the newer phones.. Do you know of any current projects to defeat this you may be able to link me too?

Hey jorg,
When I installed the theme, my status bar text is still black, hard to see against the dark background.. Will you package the white text in the next edition?

Stock swype...I'm using the droid 2.3.3 theme and I was curious if you could plug code into it for red swype. i've been trying to use UOT Kitchen but for some reason, when I attempt to use it, all the tabs are greyed/inactive.

I checked the file and it seems to be already white. Try flashing the file again
just sent you the file you requested above...
also, i noted, i will have to try and clear the cache next time i install it, and see if that works...
Thanks Jorgonv!!
I'm having the same clock text color problem for the update, but I already tried re-flashing and that didn't work. I'm going to try doing the cache this time to see if it works.
Edit: After wiping both the Davlik cache and the cache partition I re-flashed, but the clock text didn't change. I'm probably doing something wrong, but I can't figure it out.

I'll look into it more since there is a couple of people having problems
Just to make sure, it is date font when you pull down the status bar that is still white?
Great job on this theme, it really is great!
