Hi all I'm new to the forum and a bit of a noob when it comes to droids. But does any one know if there's an app out there so that can theme the icons on the status bar my droids isn't rooted and I'm running gb 2.3.4 themed with awd.

To ways come to my mind:
1. root it, install CyanogenMod and search the market for Theme Engine's themes (there are quite a few and they theme almost everything); a bit tricky, you get lots of themes.
2. root it, metamorh/ninjamorfh and search themes for them (I'm not 100% sure those apps would work on stock rom, never tried);

I am unable to use the Sense UI of the AT&T HOXL 2.20 because it is a white background all over - this includes the messaging, contacts, settings, etc.
Is there a way to customize Sense to have a dark background with a light text all over ? I am willing to purchase apps if necessary.
Thanks!
Are you rooted? bootloader unlocked?
Id recommend trying viperXL rom for your At&t/Rogers HTC One X
ViperXL is a great rom! I use it on my XL and I installed it one my brothers HTC One S, I dont know if they have exactly what you are looking for but the have a pretty good theming section! I definetly recommend you to go check it out at the developers section!
please remember not to flash the international version rom the ViperX, you have to flash the ViperXL rom for at&t/Rogers/XL Dual core phones otherwise you can brick it!
Hope you can find anything you like!
Hi,
After using sense 4.x roms for a while, I've found myself back on sense 3.6.
Unfortunately, I'd gotten used to being able to apply status bar themes as and when I wanted to and have missed this since being back on 3.6. I found some but they seem to be for 3.32 based ROMs and don't work with 3.33 based ROMs, so I thought I'd try making some myself. I therefore present to you these AOSP status bar themes.
There's a green theme (as I think it compliments the sense green framework nicely) and a purple theme (made for my wife! )
If people like these then I may do some other coloured themes, maybe some other designs too.
Thanks
Many of the source files come from Jerrytan's themes for sense 4.x (original thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1640467) and the flashable zip is from Super Swaggtastic's emoji mod (orignal thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1895610) as I can't make my own yet!!!
Thanks Jerry and S.S :good:
What is themed:
USB connected icon,
New SMS icon,
New email icon (not Gmail),
Calendar reminder icon,
New voicemail icon,
Downloading/uploading/installing arrow icons,
Tethering icons,
Alarm icon
Signal icons,
Data icons,
Wifi icon,
Bluetooth icon
GPS icon
Headphone icon,
Sync icon,
Speakerphone/mute in call icons
Battery in purple, blue and yellow themes.
More that I forget
These were made based on Elegancia 3.7.0 ROM, with Darkforest tweaks installed, but should work on any sense 3.6/3.33 based ROM.
If you have Leedroid tweaks installed, the app drawer icon will change to Darkforest tweaks but the functionality of the tweaks app will not be affected and your tweaks settings will not be changed.
If you don't have any tweaks app installed, I'd recommend deleting the tweaks.apk from the zip before flashing.
Screenshots show green theme, Purple is the same and the battery is purple instead of green too (EDIT, added one screenshot of purple to give you an idea).
As always, making a nandroid backup before flashing is recommended :good:

Please note, this only themes the status bar and in the screenshot, I am also running a skin (not mine)* which themes the clock etc.

Nice work, can u help me with making a Transparent Status bar mod for Sense 3.6?
Maybe, I'm still quite new to this but I'll have a look.
Have you seen what you're looking for elsewhere? Any links or screenshots I can check out?

There r a few readymade mods but for different devices. U can check in my Mods collection thread, goto sense 3.5 mods & u'll see a transparent status bar mod. Want to make a similar mod for sense 3.6, but things r different in it

Sorry fella, no good.
I had a look and replaced the files that I thought were relevant, with transparent ones, in systemui.apk but it didn't change anything.
Couldn't see anything relevant in framework-res.apk either. I wonder if HTC have moved the relevant file/files into an .m10 file somewhere in sense 3.6......
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e
Apologies if anyone has been using the purple or blue themes, I noticed today that the GPS icons in the purple theme, and headphone icons in the blue theme, weren't working as they should.
This should now be fixed - please redownload and reflash, no wipe needed.
I'm too, Sometimes i wish i could go back to 3.6 but i would miss so many Features

You should try it, it's so much faster and smoother!!
To be honest, the only feature I miss from Sense 4.x is the 'long press back to kill' mod and Jonny is set to release a new version of Darkforest in the next couple of weeks with this included....

i was thinking to delete the unnecessary stuff and keep only for example EQS and status bar theme
after delete the flash will have success or there will be a problem with aroma installer?
thanks for your time mate
edit:i open again the zip and i found a requirements.txt and says that i have to be also S-OFF
nevermind
Are you able to flash zips in recovery?
If so, send me a link to the thread for the ROM you're on and choose one of my themes and I'll try making a flashable Zip for you, if you want.

It's the firmware essentially, as I understand it but I'll make the edits to the apk's from your Rom rather than mine, just to be on the safe side
I'll do it tonight after work.

Hi there,
is it possible to let this icons run on the One S / create a flashable zip for the One S?
I think the images only have to be resized for our One S, but I don't know how.
Here's a link from the One X forum.

If you're running Viper 2.0 there is a sense 5 icon pack floating around XDA somewhere. I think I saw it in the Sensation theme section.

Hey folks,
Lately viperS has been experiencing random shutdowns on my sensation xe. Some threads claim it to be due to SebastienFM kernel. I don't like pointing fingers, but it has come to a point where it's annoying me big time. It only happened a while after updating to 3.1.4 through OTA. 3.1.2 did not have that problem.
Now, a while back I got myself a new been nexus 7 and I rally dig that stock android shell. Makes the HTC shell look slow and bulky.
I checked out cwm but they stopped at 9. How are those unofficial ones.
So i want some recommendations. I have a few requirements.
*android as up to date as possible (my nexus 7 is on 4.4.2)
*as smooth as possible with the sensation XE's limited ram
*stock android ui? I don't mind losing HTC widgets, there's always alternatives.
*USB host support (may require newer firmware, see specs below) is mandatory with read/write permission? My nexus 7 can only read for some reason.
*maintained by OTA updates?
*has to be compatible with EU cellphone frequencies as I want to be able to keep sending calls and texts.
Device:
HTC sensation xe, hboot 1.29, s-OFF, twrp recovery 2.6.3.0(can swap to 4ext if needed.)
So what can the community recommend me?

wrong section, this is for development only
Sorry, didn't know where to post it as there is no specific section for my device. Only the standard and xl version. Can any mid then please move this topic?

XE and 4g are the same as the original sensation...
But you can try Viper 5.0 if you prefer Sense or if you like experimenting and stock android i'll go for a 4.4.2 rom like Carbon or CyanogenMod 11

Moved to Q&A as this is a question. Thread closed as it is a question about the best ROM, which isn't allowed. Try the ROMs yourself and see what fits your requirements
