Disable Notification Bar Icon Transparency? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As you see in the screenshot, I have a message notification and it is grey and hard to see outside in the sun. Normally, the icon is a nice bright white. Is there any way to fix this without root access?

Not if you want to keep the stock messages app. If you root their are obvious answers like AOKP, you can change the notification color and transparency settings. Un-rooted you can download a third party texting app. GOsms offers different color notification colors for the messages. It isn't transparency, but it'll still make it a little easier to see.

Ok, thanks. Do you think this might be changed in the Jelly Bean update?

If the ROM you are using is unodexed, you just need to change it the statusbar in the framework-res.apk, unless you are using CM7 then it is in the systemui.apk
Thanks, but I have not modded my g2x as of yet. I am curious to see how the update will go first, then I will change roms. I am currently working with the stock rom. I thought someone may know of an app or knows a launcher that maybe able to do the trick. your input is much appreciated..

Lockscreen app like the stock Sammy?

Is there a lockscreen app that mimics the Sammy lockscreen? I love the swipe anywhere thing and the swipe for notifications. (like how the message notification shows up and you swipe from that to open the message) I'm using the circles lockscreen on aokp but it doesn't have the notifications.

Yeah, I know. I was wondering if there was something like it. Not the actual thing. But thanks for the reply.

Widgetlocker is the closest. Maybe go locker haven't used go locker in a coons age but widget locker is pretty tight
Alright, might give it a try. For sure won't use go locker, the only good thing go put out was messaging but it doesn't beat stock. Thanks for the reply.

UI fix?

My UI keeps showing white backgrounds after the last update, like under the notification bar. What can I do to fix this? I've looked but haven't really found anything. Thanks in advance

This should be in the Q&A Section.
Try reflashing though

Are you running kinda crap mods on a MB1-based rom? If so, that's your problem.

[Q] Archive gmail from notification?

I used to have this feature using PA, but now I don't in Carbon.
It should still be there, right? What happened to it?

Gmail app has the ability to tap Archive and I think Reply right from the notification. How do I get it back?

I believe that is due to jb's expandable notifications. You should be able to go into either status bar or notification settings and choose the "always expand" option. That will enable your notifications to always be expanded which will show you these options. Alternatively, you can swipe down on the notification with two fingers and it will expand it for you.

Awesome. Thanks! Didn't know about the swipe. I set it back to always expand and it's back how I like it.

Want help to find a MOD

Looking for a transparent notification tray MOD... In the mean time I'll keep on looking lol

Status bar or the notification drawer? Judging by your other posts, you're running PAC. Poke around in the settings. Some ROMs have transparency options in them, not sure if PAC is one or not.

The notification drawer. My status bar is transparent and I love it. I just want my notification drawer to be 50% or 60%. I'll play with the paranoid android settings. Thanks for the advice! ??

Beanstalk has it for sure
Don't think you're going to find the option in Paranoids settings.

Okay, thanks guys... Yes, I seen that beanstalk had it... Let me try and run beanstalk ROM again! I also liked that digitized battery brick option in beanstalk
