Check it out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=638659
if youre still using sense, just do a color invert in the statusbar png so it'll be white and then start making it transparent. that looks like its at a pretty high amount of transparency. if youre using CM6, it should be as easy as copy and paste from that framework to yours.
how do you make it transparent
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I can get the status bar to be transparent on most apps. My problem really is on my calendar. It is showing up with a "USB Debugging" every single time. I have attached photos to show you guys what I see. I have also included the png's I am using to get the statusbar transparent.
PS. They are located in framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi-v4.
Let me know how everyone elses looks. Any help to get this fixed for everyone is greatly appreciated.
did anyone ever get this working? really wanna try this

This is a custom theme I made for the MIUI ROM. I'm in no way a fan of the stock orange colors Android chooses to use, so I did some work of my own.
Please do not repost (or port & upload) my work without permission; do not claim any of my work as your own; I've put a lot of time into making this what it is today. Before doing anything questionable, ask yourself how you would feel if someone took credit for your work. Thanks for understanding.
¤Changes:
- Almost all orange changed to blue, including highlight text.
- Completely custom, visually appealing UI.
- White pulldown menu rather than the off-white standard.
- Themed system apps.
¤ If you have any suggestions or improvements, please let me know! Any input is appreciated.
This was built to work on HTC Incredible and Desire. If you want a port, request one. May work on Evo 4G.
¤Download:
•v0.7 - Minor tweaks, rebuilt using 0.10.29 English source.

Screenshots:
[very outdated, new ones will come in time]
¤¤¤ As a way of saying thank you, it would be a big help if you guys would use my Dropbox Referral Link to make an account [real or fake] so I can keep hosting files for the community; it's filling up rather quickly! ¤¤¤
Enjoy!

SetCPU works fine for me after installing theme.
Thanks so much for the icons
how deep does the theme go?
Hey there. Thanks for this! I don't like the orange so much. Like Blue a little better at least
Anyway, is the theme supposed to carry into the dialer and messaging and such? When I press numbers in the dialer, they are orange. Selections in the messaging app are still orange as well, as is the orangish background. Wasn't sure these were supposed to be affected by the theme.
Regardless...Thanks again! Closer to getting the phone to the way I like it to look.
I have the same problem– force close on setcpu when i try to create a profile..ive tried diff kernels and did a clean install..no issues till after installing the theme.

That's a system issue not related to my theme. I've been wanting to tweak the "recent apps" screen for some time now, but haven't found out how yet.
UPDATES
version 2
I just wanted to share with you all my custom status bar, honeycomb style battery mod and drop down window for all GINGERBREAD & FROYO GSM roms with CWR except cm7 (I will make one if interest arrives)
CDMA users: SOMEONE SEND ME A STOCK FRAMEWORK.APK
I took the gingerbread overcome gold theme and icons and changed some things.
Thanks to the overcome gold guys.
Thanks to mendozinas for making most of this possible.
Here is what I changed.
*BatteryMod - changed it to a colorful blue hybrid Honeycomb style icon, that shows percentage, and changes progressively from red (low batt) to yellow, light blue then a darker blue. Appears on your lockscreen also.
*Window Animation - TAKEN OUT, BACK TO STOCK AMINAMTIONS upon request.
*Changed overscroll glow colors to custom light blue, dropped transparency of windows
* Status bar icons are now blue
*Status bar - changed background
*Status bar time is now blue. so are written notifications. New blue status bar system radio icons
*Dropped transparency of carrier label
*Customized the Drop down window. window is 0%, also altered style and color of Notification bar, header is transparent now. Made Background transparent around 4 service icons its now blue on black with white text for ongoing items, instead if black on black, dropped transparency
* made the colors more uniform
*A few more things.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL GSM USERS
ALLWAYS do a nandroid backup of anything you change, so you can revert easily. I prefer cwr backups.
Have cwr
Just download correct version and place on sd card. (BlueBarMod ZIP is for gingerbread and FROYO ZIP is, well.......)
flash in CWR.
use fix permissions option.
Reboot and enjoy
Just wanted to share.
New flashable and pics UPLOADED!!!
HIT THE THANKS BUTTON IF THIS BRIGHTENED YOUR TABS DAY
*reserved*
CDMA someone send me a framework.apk so i can get one up .for u
Thanks, downloaded and installed no prob!

Installed on Overcome RC1 (Haven't gone Gold yet... still doesn't seem quite right)
Everything looks GREAT! No offense to AB86 or the Overcome team, but the notification bar on RC1 was not functional. This looks great, and I love the animations! The new clock font for the lockscreen is pretty cool too.
All in all, 9 stars out of 10
Also... since you obviously know the answer to life , the universe and everything("42"), I wont mention what I think would make it a 10/10
No offence mate but how do I go back to the stock notification layout? Its really awesome, just too much eye candy for me Hope you can help me out here mate.
Cheers!

Rule #1 of flashing ANYTHING. Nandroid first, flash second.
You need to reflash your stock ROM most likely... Unless you can piece together what changes where made and rewrite your framework.... Yeah, that'd be fun :/ Or if you have a Nandroid, use it... But if it's not recent, you'll loose any changes since the backup.
Fantastic work mate. Genuinely different from most I have come across and fun too!! The fonts very cool I think, not sure about its longevity but for now I'm enjoying it.
Cheers.

All is good, but just this pixel text in a status bar notification when i m down simple black it s good i think.

Good work man. Just a tip and a request. First add an extra step of fixing permissions after flashing this in tabs that has other modded themes otherwise it will flash but wont be applied on boot.
As for the request (you did say you were open for change). Can we have the notification area clear instead of white grid (hehe reminds me of primary school math notebooks).
I remember before valhalla final that whitehawk included hiding clock in his tweaks app and now it's not available anymore. So how else can you hide the clock?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
You know... more info would be great like a simple what rom you're using. Then you might receive some help.
If you using aosp style, valhalla or valhalla black... then go to tweaks in settings and in the clock options you will see how to do it and also many other options.

This is why this community is down under because of smartass comments like yours. Wowee I completely forgot to mention what rom I am using, omg it's the end of the world.
There are many other options under tweaks?! Who knew?! This is where you didn't really read what I posted. There is no such option to hide or remove the clock like it did before. I'm using valhalla black like it wasn't obvious enough. Can anybody else, preferably a dev, help me with this? Thanks.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
Under clock options. Choose Clock Color. You could make the color of your clock black and that way you wouldn't be able to see it and effectively hide it.
I know it's not the same as hiding it where the other icons would slide right to fill the gap. Just a thought I had.

LOL Don't blame it on me. The forum its floded with useless crap and I wasn't trying to be rude but now I am. Why the hell would you want to remove the clock? If you are such a great innovative asker noob then you could just figure out to change color to black since there aren't any more option in any rom to let you deal with that sort of things. Besides that, learn to code and my guess is that you would have to change many stuff from internal to design. Good luck. I hold no grudge against you. Answer w/e you want. I rest my case.

I doubt a developer would be that interested in chiming in on this one... Though have you considered changing the launcher, adw allows you to completely hide the status bar, I know it's not the answer you may be seeking just an option
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
decompile the apk
/res
/layout
/statusbar.xml
Remove the clock line recompile and flash If that causes issues. U can always just change the clocks dpi to 0 which effectivly hides it. Next time please state which rom you are on ( for anything based on stock this will work..) Themers would have known this one 2

I was just wondering if anyone would be able to do a Dark Theme Mod of the Flipboard app?

Well, it obviously looks like there is not a developer or themer that wants or needs this.
Maybe you all should work together to modify the app theme to a dark theme. It isn't that complicated. There is also the option of using a 3rd party launcher or 3rd party theme app to achieve this, some of these can even add the dark theme to everything on the device without needing to modify the apps themselves.

I went to Playstore and searched for:
"Dark theme"
These are the results:
https://play.google.com/store/search?q=Dark theme&c=apps
Some of the apps in those results can be used to dark theme other apps, even add dark theme to the whole device with the right setup of app/apps. Try a lot of them, dig deeply into the different ways they can be used, see if any work together to enable/disable dark theme where you want/don't want.
I did a simple Google search for:
"Apps to make all apps dark theme"
This is one of the first results I found:
https://www.davebennett.tech/dark-theme-any-app/
That is just one result, there are many others.
The point is, there are things already available to do what you want.
If that isn't enough, do a Google search for:
"How to use APKtool to modify apps"
Or
"How to theme android apps"
Use one/some of those guides to learn how to actually modify and repackage the apk file of whatever app that you want to add dark theme to.
To learn how to actually edit the apk to add dark theme, do a Google search for:
"How to edit apk file to add dark theme"
You can even change the icon for the app or even change the image files for the different "buttons" or the font in the app, you can even change the color/location of buttons and text in the app.
The point is, the stuff to do what you want already exists at various levels of difficulty. Find the difficulty level that you are comfortable with and figure it out by trial and error.
I think I've shown you some basic examples of how you can acieve your result for any/all apps, it's up to you to dig in and find your best option.

I'm looking for the exact same answer. I normally do some light reading after dinner. And the white background on my android does my head in. I just saw that ios users have it lucky with the invert colours option. Why the step motherly treatment for us android users?
You can enable invert color option from developer menu while using Flipboard
Am using that since many days as I found no other option
