NSCollab - changing the notification bar transparency - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I just flashed the NSCollab for my Nexus S and my Quadrant score popped from 1600 to 2700. It's awesome. However I don't like the notification bar transparency. Is it possible to change it through settings? I tried to find it but there was nothing.

Same here with the transparent notification bar, it would be nice to be able to change it to something more like the stock rom. Also any way to change the dock launcher, beside just change to a different rom?

Status bar modifications?

Any apk's out there that will let you modify the status bar? I'd love the option to change the color, maybe black or blue or disable it all together!
I have a HeroC running DarchDroidv2.8 ROM with launcherpro v8.1.
I definitely want to keep this ROM so looking for something that will work on top of DD. Thanks!
search for the online theme kitchen. Just make sure you select the right ROM, and upload your framework-res.apk.
orrr.... just start using CM like everyone else. and do it from the settings!

Very true, the notification kitchen only works with 2.2 roms anyways I do believe
You can hide the notification bar in LauncherPro. Preferences > Appearance > Hide notification bar

As well as in ADW, where you can swipe to enable/disable

[THEME][REQ] MIUI semi-transparent notification bar on CM6

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.

[Q] app drawer icons/notification bar

title pretty much says it all.
i was wondering if there are any themes that have a black notification bar instead of the ol' white one. im currently using GO Launcher theme and i am rooted.
as for the second part: i wanna change my icons in the app drawer to different icons. like when u pull up the drawer and see all system apps and other apps. is there a way to change those icons without having to apply a theme?

How To Reset Status Bar With New DPI

I have a Samsung Captivate. I am pretty tech savy so I have updated. It is running the newest X-Bean rom with the newest devil kernel. It is running silky smooth and looking beautiful. However, I wasn't a fan of the default 240 DPI the rom came with so, using build.prop app, I changed it to 182. Works great with my 5X5 Grid and Nova Launcher. One thing that is bugging me though, the status bar messages are cut off. The whole message won't show if their are multiple ones up. Instead, it will cut off the bottom of them. I am assuming this is the result of my DPI change.
Is there anyway to change the status bar to work with a higher resolution/lower DPI? I know some programs you have to clear the data app when you change the DPI for them to work correctly with the new DPI. Is this the same with the status bar?
Any Help would be appreciated.

I guess you could find a theme with Icons that Look similar.. the theme 'neutral' Looks promising.
I installed a theme that fits my expectations and use adw Launcher to get an AOSP-ish Look and feel.
