Notification Bar Clock Font - XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps

Is it possible to make the font of the clock in the notification bar bold, like in this screenshot?

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And would it be possible through typefresh?
Cheers

I'm pretty sure the only way would be by modifying the framework xml files, which would probably make it theme dependent as you would more than likely need to edit some that get compiled into resources.arsc, meaning you need any additions from the theme in your working folder when you compile.
Where's the screenshot from? Looks nice and if you had the framework for it I'd gladly sort out something for the X10.
There may be an app out there that can do this, but I have my doubts.

Are you interested in the theme from your screenshot, or do you just want a run-down on which xml files to modify? (or do you have a theme you're using now that you just want a bold clock for)

im quite happy with my current theme, a run down of what to edit would be great
however, ive noticed that the clock seems to be bold on stock android, as you can see on the x10 aosp screens, so is it something se have changed?

How did you get the battery percent icon? Is it part of a theme?

yes it is ...

Anyone find this out? I'd like to change the font of my clock in my notification bar..
I'm pretty savvy with the Android OS, have done my own metamorph's and mod's for awhile.. I just can't seem to find where the clock is stored.

i would also love this option...if for no other reason than to match the rest of the clear themed stuff.
please does anyone know if this is possible
Well i was capable of making it transparent but only when the screen transitions and you can see it is transparent when I pull the taskbar down. I dont know how to get it transparent on the home screen.
Probably could be done the same way you recolor it. Just use a transparent .png file instead of a colored one. Its a good idea, I'd use it.
do you know which file has to be changed i looked but could not find it

I actually tried this and it did not work, just made the task bar black. My theory is that the wallpaper ends at the task bar rather than covering it . If that is true I think you would have to "fake" a clear task bar by making it match your wallpaper. I have done this successfully with solid colors, but it would be harder with a more complicated wallpaper.
Example:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"

you're 100% correct. my bad. guess i wanted it too much lol.
yep i just tried to and it was black as well it was cool to see threw the bar when you pull down notifications though
i wonder if it would be possible to edit a xml file somewhere to get the wallpaper to take up the full screen. i just think this would be so cool if i could figure it out

I used Desktop Visualizer to set the icons on the desktop. I tried Bettercut at first and it didn't seem happy and crashed.
I like that XDA wallpaper. Where can I get it? Is it in the screen shot thread?
here's the wallpaper in a ZIP, i made this a while ago for the forum.
Much appreciated! Gotta rep XDA.
Thanks H0ckey..You rock man...
few more iconz
more ................
Hi H0ckey, how to apply these icons?
Thanks for your advanced
Purchase Bettercut from the market.
What it basically does is it allows you to create short cuts for apps and what not and it allows you to pick what a picture for it.
its like in windows, you create a short cut for an app, then you can right click and change the icon in properties. same idea. works for all platforms, but ofcourse, read the comments first.

I too would like to hear more options than bettercut. I can't remember the name but i'm pretty sure there are some better, easier functionality than bettercut, also free. Anybody with this app, TIA
I use folder organizer. Alot easier to use and I never have the issues that I had with bettercut.
Thanks for all answers. I´ll try later.
Best regards

[Modding] Help with transparent notification bar + theme preview

I try to make my theme but I have a problem.

Small preview of the theme I working
I have also % of battery and trackball wakeup (thanks to eug89 for compile java)
that top grey part is called title_bar_portrait.9.png and is located on framework-res.apk. the part you want to make transparent is called status_bar_background.png and is also located in framework-res.apk
not sure if you have edited .9.pngd before but it you have to do more than just replace the image for it to look right. also im not sure if that part can be made transparent in froyo as i am currently having trouble with it. however if your making the theme for CM just adjust the transparency in photoshop, gimp etc
hope that helped

i dont think so. froyo doesnt seem to allow the image to have any transparency
Theres a Xeudoxus app that patches services.jar to enable that transparency. Didn't find exact details as too which particular file (s) are affects (for morphs). I hate when people do that (hiding details ), I will investigate after work.
For more info see this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=700703
Thanks Britoso.
Now I have the theme with transparent.
Now I have to fix the bar "Notification" because are also trasparent.
Also I have to investigate why It have some crash when I use metamorth for apply theme.
edit.
perfect all I want.
I have only investigate for crash when using metamorph.
Thx britoso from that other thread and xuedoxus for the app
finally got it working on my theme(frf91)
pretty cool theme!

[HOW-TO] Translucent notification tray background in Froyo

See post #53 for guide. Credit to ghostrida! Awesome work!
This has only been verified to work on DEODEXED ROMs.
NOTICE: THE services.jar MOD ONLY ALLOWS FOR THE BACKGROUND PNG TO SHOW TRANSLUCENCY.
YOU MUST EDIT YOUR OWN status_bar_backgound.png AND MAKE IT TRANSLUCENT AS WELL AS MAKE THE NECESSARY services.jar MOD
This is my 65% black...(PNG is attached)

That's great, but many of us would like to know how to do it so we can accomplish it on other Froyo based ROMs.

I see you Rip... cant wait!!

Shhhh... I am incognito LOL
Here are the files needed for transparent notification drop down not flashable through recovery
So it a different services.jar file
Question: If I am using the custom services.jar that removes the clock will this overwrite it?

Hey sorry for the late reply, but yea, it's the service.jar file.
Thanks guys... working on it now
I dont know why but it leaves squares in the pull down but thats what i found just surfing around in this site.
Ok, so we have 2 services.jar files .... 1 for no clock and 1 for transparent pulldown.
Who do we know here that can merge the two?

Not exactly. Your background image in the tray pull down is full of lines while the background wallpaper is clear.

That's closer, but still not quite it, those lines would drive me nuts. NO offense. But I like the progress being made.
Here is an example of a translucent tray, this is what I mean: (it's a 2.1 MOD of course)
Also, as stated in the OP, I'm not asking for someone to make this MOD for me necessarily. But rather some information of HOW and WHAT to change to make that notification tray background translucent.
The translucent tray is cool if we can figure out how to do it, but what about the notification bar too? That would make a killer combination!

Well if we can figure out how to set translucence, the notification bar will be easy.

the squares are being caused by the actual png. it has white lies around it. i will post a fixed png for ya in a sec.

HELP! Original lockscreen or how to edit motorola lockscreen =S

i whant to edit or remove the motorola lockscreen...
But i can't, if i try to edit it, it doesn't work any more or doesn't work as before...
If not, remove this lockscreen and use the original android lockscreen.
i'm making a rom and i'm stucked with this.... and the background color of some items...
In the froyo ROMs:
Decompile the framework-res.apk
Replace keyguard_screen_tab_unlock.xml
Replace the zz_moto_jog_tab pngs
If you also edit the integers.xml you can fix the problem where the sound slider is not right justified.
<integer name="config_lock_screen_slider_padding_left">58</integer>
<integer name="config_lock_screen_slider_padding_right">0</integer>
<integer name="config_lock_screen_slider_padding_top">58</integer>
<integer name="config_lock_screen_slider_padding_bottom">55</integer>

Thanks!! but one more question for you my friend
I use 7zip to extract files from framework-res.apk but XML files, seems strange =S
rare simbols, and i can't understand anything
You have to decompile it. I use apk manager.
If you cant see the content of an xml, you can use axmlprinter2 to SEE this, but with that tool you cant change the xml, need to be done with hex editor.
There is a kitchen to do this? I think it can be done with apk manager.

And how to do the same in 2.1 ROMs ? I'd love to get back original lockscreen - motorolas suck with green wallpaper ,)

Slightly different in 2.1:
You have to change the zz_moto_keyguard_screen_tab_unlock.xml in the framework-res.apk
And set the clockopia font in the digitalclock within the framework.jar
okay i will try it, so to decompile and compile the apk i need to use apk manager and to see what is inside the XML, axmlprinter2?
EDIT:
Where are the XML styles to edit the background opacity/color and style??
THanks!
Nice! Almost to easy!
Q: When im alredy at it- cant i change the color and shape on the original sliders just by using other .png's? (i would like to have just plain gray circles and no "sliders".. and i'd like to change the clock to Digital clock widget by Maze- Im running with WidgetLocker now but.. you know how it is- ending a cal and your right back on the stock one- and somtimes it flaches by when locking/unlocking. And damn, I whant perfection!
Running Froyo btw.
You have done a great work on bringing native lockscreen to Defy. Thanks a lot! There is one more thing I would also love to have. It is Froyo call answer/hangup bars.. I'm curious do you have any thoughts on customizing blurphone.apk? Looking forward for the updates.
