So for quite a while i've been using morph designed by formel-lms in the nexus one, its worked with the evo cm6 pretty well besides a few kinks. So i spent a little time playing with it this afternoon getting it setup the way i wanted, i love the look of stock CM6 just wanted the clear bar.
Much thanks to stericson for metamorph and formel for the initial morph i started using and working off of. Also to myn for the tinted status bar idea.
Transparent status bar with a bit of tint to make things easier to red. Using all the stock status bar icons. Using this on CM6.1.1 haven't tried anything else. Pic and zip attached.
Post up any issues and i'll try to fix them, if i can't maybe a theme pro could lend a hand.
Thanks dude.
Thank 4 posting

this is only for ADW isn't it? Do you think you can try using launcher pro with it and letting us know? Usually LP creates a Black status bar instead of the applied clear one.
I think its a launcher pro issue, because you can get the same black bar issue with adw if you disable the wallpaper hack.
I'll load launcher pro on my phone and see what's up. I might search around and see if I can somebody else's solution.

Just wondering if anyone has come across any cool status bar morphs for the latest Cyan test mod 5? I've searched this forum and cyanogenmod's forum to no avail.
Just looking for someone to point me in the right direction, or feel free to add one you have/found here..thanks so much.
formel-lms black bar and glass bar both work, may not be called black bar. Just search formel-lms.

That's the theme where is was talking about the desire morph. i like this very much. but i had to change some colors on my own with spare parts. don't know why
You can use all my Themes for the newer Cyanogen ROMs.
Look at my signature.
Because of the changing of colour and date fonts is now in "Spare Parts"
My "real Desire" theme is not with the colorful icons anymore. the Icons are additional.
I'm looking for a black transparent top bar. maybe almost glass-like?
anyone know where or how?
Transparent or Translucent? I don't think I understand, are you looking for something like this
[MOD] (UPDATED!! 7-18) Clear - Transparent "Stock - Aloysius" TaskBar Modification!
transparent is clear you dolt
Clear is clear, translucent is see through. So I guess I'm looking for see through black like smoked glass. Like the htc clock/weather widget.
havnt seen this around but im adding such thing to my theme im working on. i will package it seperately when i do so. try back tom.
Awesome!! Thanx.
I Just Got It Working How It Should On My Theme. Just Running A Few Color Changes As Far As Transparency Goes To Match HTC's Transparency Levels But Still Looks Black. Will Be Up Soon. What Theme Or Rom Are You Using?
Ok Its All Done. On My Theme So I Can Package It Up Later For Just The Taskbar. Its A Little Darker Than HTC's Level But It Had To Be Or Else You Would Need New Icons. =/ But You Can Hardly Tell Its Darker. Looks Well.

are u still uploading this modification and will it work with fresh froyo?
What's up all. Looking for someone to help out on this.
I've been trying to find a way to make the status bar semi-transparent. (not notification bar) Is there a way to flash a zip file and have the status bar transparent or half way so the wallpaper is showing. This will make the screen look bigger and the over look on sense themes will be sweet.
I'm using the mannup revolution theme that comes with redemption rom.
Any ideas? Thanks!

It would be awesome if someone could make a standalone zip (the one in the post includes the round battery indicator) with just the transparency
Lots of transparency mods don't include transparency on the item backgrounds, and that one does. Pretty awesome

Thanks for the help guys!!! This will get me started. I tried flashing the the transparent bar over Redemption rom with the incredible revolution theme and the bar was only transparent when the phone was in lock. After I unlock the phone it went back to the black status bar. Might have been because I removed rosie to only use launchepro. I'll mess around with this and post if I get anywhere.
I'm surprised there are not more themes with an option for the semi-transparent status bar. Even the semi status bar when phone is locked looked awsome.
If any one has any other ideas, please post them. Thanks!!!
It only fully works when using the sense launcher.
I would use it, but it removes any rosie mods (such as the manup sexy rosie skin) when applied so i haven't been able to use it lately.
Yeah same here. I wish it was as simple as flashing a zip to change the script in a current theme framework.

Privet,its in services.jar file its simple to mod but i dint know what line it is that makes it transparent.The mod you have becomes clear with lwp's also.
I've been messing with this for a while, I've got mine transparent, but it turns out launcher pro doesn't support the transparencies. As soon as I install launcher pro it goes solid black.
really? i didnt think launcher pro had any affect on the notifications bar
Yeah I had the same issue. I'm using the redmptive rom now with the matted blues theme. I edited the theme to have the transparent bar and decided not to use launcher pro anymore.

Do it through ninja morph... worked for me. Only issue is that all of the notifications for battery and signal have black backgrounds that you'll have to fix as well.
Where could someone find a Semi or Clear Notification bar as a zip? I've looked and cannot find.. I have a stock Theme with Fresh. Thanks

There is a Transparent Title Bar download located in Myn's Rom, but I don't know if it will work on a different rom. Give it a shot and post results.

It worked but it left the black around the icons. Thanks for the effort
I'm not a developer or even close to one, but I messed around with some of the files from Smooth or something like that and was able to get a transparent notification bar and added an Android logo to it as well. It works with LP also. The only thing is that you have to hide the notification bar, then show it back to make it work. Not the greatest, but it worked for me. Needs to be flashed. Maybe someone can tweak it some more...

I flashed smooth sense icons do you think it will take with this flash?
I honestly don't know, but I would think it would. I only changed some of the images in the folders.

Do you think its possible just make the clear bar and thats it??
I was able to achieve the clear notification bar by using this link for the Super Circle battery mod. (I still can't post links so just google it.) The site is for the battery mod along with a few others, such as the clear notification bar. I had no hand in making the tool, or site, at all. The only problem for me is I too still have the black around the signal icon and a few others. I added the transparency to the icons but no luck. Hopefully someone can shed some light on the subject.

Are you using Launcher Pro? I read somewhere its a limitation of LP. If you are using stock Rosie, it should work.
As the title suggests.
Unfortunately, replacing the .PNG's in framework-res does nothing. Apparently there needs to be some modifications done to the XML's inside framework-res.
Love that semi-transparent look of the MIUI notification bar but I love my CM6 and I'm not willing to give up the ROM just for aesthetics so I'm wondering if this could be done.
I'm sure it CAN be done, there's so many excellent devs on this forum!
Thanks!
Also, if anyone can figure out how to port the top-bar battery found in the MIUI rom I'd love you. :>
I can't be the only one that likes the MIUI NB and wants it on CM6! Right?
I can get down with that. I use launcher pro though, so it most likely wouldn't work out anyways.
I second the Battery bar request. Its my favorite feature in MIUI.

I use LP too. Why wouldn't it work?
+1 I would like to port this over aswell.... Any ideas? I have searched all XML and havent come up with anything. maybe i have missed something.
i want my CM status/taskbar clear as well... LOL
been trying to do that forever.... i use ADW btw
I switched from myn's and now I can't live without a transparent taskbar, I would donate to get this.
Hey guys I just answered your requests.
Just finished up my latest theme for CM 6.1.2, which includes a semi-transparent status bar and a MIUI-ish battery icon. Link is in my sig. One thing to note: status bar transparency doesn't work with LauncherPro. LauncherPro "moves" your wallpaper down 38 pixels, which creates an opaque effect on the status bar. Lame, I know, but don't blame me since it's part of the LauncherPro code. lol. The status bar will be transparent with LP while in apps or the lock screen, but you'll have to use ADW if you want transparency on your home screen. Enjoy, guys.
