Hello everyone and good day...ive been searching here and i cant seem to find the guide for modding the icons located @ the status bar of HTC Desire S...if anyone here has the solution or guide pls share and guide us in doing so...thanks and more power....
I just wanna remove or hide the clock icon in my status bar since its like a redundant of the clock that i have on my main screen...tnx
What rom do you use?
Bulletproof Tweaks Port for Virtuous Unity can do this.
Push me soft
Or use UOT kitchen. You can mod all the icons on the taskbar - not sure about completely removing an icon tho. Might be worth a look.
Peace

The up-coming CoreDroid release has options to tweak the status bar, including the option to hide the clock.

I know you're on a differenr rom, but this one - also from proxuser - has "RCMixHD Tweaks" built in and it is possible to hide the clock with it. You may be able to download and apply the same "tweaks" to get this effect?
Peace
update
i just wanna update this thread coz right now im using coredroid cfw and i was just wondering maybe someone has a flashable edited framework with hidden clock on status bar....im using htc DS....up until now still i cant get to remove this clock in status bar....any help?

Here are a few mods to remove status bar icons. These mods will only work on Deodexed ROMs. If you have other mods you would like to see or have other mods you would like to have posted here, let me know. All mods are flashable through CW recovery.
These mods have been tried and tested on VirusRom and are confirmed to work. If they do not work on your ROM or change some of the theming please let me know and PM me your services.jar so i can do mods for that particular ROM.
As always make a backup before flashing. First boot after installing mod will take a little while.
No Clock mod
No Clock & Location mod
No Clock, Location & Alarm mod
No Clock, Location & Battery mod
No Clock, Location, Battery & Alarm mod
No Battery mod
No Location & Alarm mod
VirusRom's RC1B3 No Clock, Location, Battery & Alarm - includes 6 bar service icon and Power widget mod
BAMF 1.4 No Alarm (and no location by default)
By default when you press the power button you have 15 seconds to "slide to unlock" before the screen times out and goes black again. This mod will change that to 30 seconds. Gives you a little extra time with your music player This will modify your android.policy.jar file. Will work on other ROMs but might change theming.
30 Second Timeout mod for VirusRom's RC1B2
30 Second Timeout mod for VirusRom's RC1B3
Battery mods by UOT Kitchen. I usually flash these on my phone and since i have to make them anyway might as well post them up here just incase anyone else wants them. DO NOT flash unless you are running the specific ROM that is associated with the file or you will bootloop your phone. This mod modifies the framework-res.apk file
Honeycomb battery mod for VirusRom's RC1B3

Stuck in boot loop. Stock ROM.
also is there anyway to keep the signal bars that are installed from virus rom? I noticed when I flashed the no clock and location zip that it made my signal bars go back to default and only 4 bars
HI thanks for the work these are great ideas for mods, never understood what the point of the time on status bar when default widget has a huge clock lol.
But sadly i cant seem to get them to work for for me. I ahve tried flashing the no clock zip as well as the no clock and no location zip but still ahve both. I am running the latest version of the virus rom RC1B3 i believe. i know this rom uses launcher pro instead of the defualt launcher could that be whats affecting this? thanks for any help.
Update: Not sure what was going on but after 3 or 4 reboots it is now working thanks again for the easy to install zip

here is my services.jar file from my current theme setup of virus rom.
if you can just edit mine so it shows no location/no time/no alarm/no battery it be great.
I use beautiful widgets so I have all of these features as battery and clock on my main screen
and keep my powerbar widgets in the pulldown menu and 6 signal bars it be greatly appreciated just want a really clean status bar and want nothing extra there that I may not need.

this should help, but there isnt a *really easy way
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7328895&postcount=124
EDIT* make sure you do a CWM backup before modifying this file, and if you have a theme, you will lose it after making the changes and rebooting, just reapply the theme
the other alternative (which is a terrible choice in my opinion) is to use ADW launcher or GO launcher, you can remove the status bar completely, but not just the clock, you gotta mod the actual framework
I'd flash the Bulletproof v0.9 rom personally.
It has an extra tweaks section in settings that lets you remove the clock from the status bar, along with plenty of other small tweaks.
I would like the same. doesn't android suppose to be very customizable.
even windows mobile at old days has an option.

Ok, that was easy.
This worked for me. First im on JB_by_luxandroid_v2 (one s s3). I copied the systemUI.apk to my pc. Added .zip to the file and unzipped it. Searched for status_bar_background.9.png and used gimp to make these all black. Rezipped all the files to systemui.apk and copied back /system/apps using twrp file manager. Restart and all black status bar.

http://dl.xda-developers.com/attach.../1/7/0/0/7/5/4/Flashable_black_status_bar.zip
This worked for me. All the tutorials out there say you need to decompile, modify and compile the systemui.apk. I did not have to nor do I know why it worked the easy way. So this might not work for you and might frak up your install (do a backup before trying).
If anyone wants to make a flashable zip or make this compatible with other roms, be my guest. I dont have the knowlege to develop this any further

Hi, I'm using nova launcher with trickdroid 5 s3. HTC status bar annoys me. Would like to get it all black. Would appreciate any help with getting it. The option was before in the tweak packade but that isn't available anymore. Is there a zip to flash?
Thanks in advance.

I did not encounter any zip to flash, but you could try decompiling systemUI by yourself, which I was too lazy for, so I flashed Pacman ROM.
However, you can download ICS Status Bar or Jelly Bean Status Bar by Team Syndicate, they overlay the Sense one with a AOSP one.
Tried the overlay from play store already. Would work fine on ics. Problem with jelly bean is whn you pull down the notifications status bar goes away, but the overlay does not. So that cuts away half of the clock and settings button.
Dont want to have to go back to ics

Didn't know that as I never had Jelly Bean and Sense at the same time Just go ahead and get yourself a decent ROM, and you're fine!

Just plain flat black.... i love it... the closest ive gotten is setting status bar transparency on home all the way in Viper ROM, either one 1.2.1 or 2.0.0, and having a black bg... But only good on home...
EDIT: I would love to remove the beveled look of the status bar....

I managed to decompile the SystemUI.apk couldnot find the obvious status bar file to modify to black, I assume there are several. Someone know witch png files need to be modified to get an all black status bar?
I have done this a long time ago on HTC touch but it seemd easier back then
been googling for hours, but cannot find clear tutorials on how to edit status bar pngs
ok think I found it. should be status_bar_background.9.png
lets see if I can get this to work with my limited knowlege
I found another way. Probably you saw that you can apply some themes in the "customize" app from HTC. Well, the devs of Virtuous ROM made some more themes for that theme chooser, including a holo-like one with a black status bar!
Ok, that was easy.

On this part of the Tweakbox, this tweak works only after reboot, which I didn't do last time but tried now and finally have transparent status bar as well ... And for others, there is a perfect guide for that - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2158652 .
Use AllianceROM. You can set any clock and status bar icon color you like and also any color/transparency of the actual statusbar on the fly without having to flash new mods.

Dont need to reboot, A soft Reboot (or Hot Boot) will do the trick . Also, you will get a black statusbar when the phone finish reboot, just pull the notification bar down and it will became transparent (or the color you want). Sorry my bad english!
I've changed the greyish icons to S4 white ones, later i will upload it.
