Hey all! I sat down today, for hours, trying to figure this out and I finally got it. The solution was actually a little bit easier than I had thought but I had to jump through a lot of hoops, semi-boot loops and more.
Status Bar XML's per a couple requests. Download and pop in an Extracted (NOT decoded) framework-res.apk. These are encoded with light colors. You CAN edit these in a hex editor like HxD, open up the file, then Find 0800001C Make sure "Hex Values" is selected.
EDIT: Currently Making a Windows App to do this and other things. Stay tuned.
First things first:
- Instructions are from a Win 7 x64 PC perspective
- I am NOT liable if you screw something up
- Your phone must be rooted, have froyo (2.2), and be de-odexed.
- This guide assumes you know how to use adb, 7-Zip
- I am not going to explain the above steps, use google or xda's search.
- If you are going to edit any .9.png files like "status_bar_close_on.9.png" you MUST keep the existing transparency and black bars in place. If you don't you will NOT be able to finish the process.
** Quick Trick **
Windows 7: Right click My Computer, Click Properties, Click Advanced System Settings, Click Environment Variables. In user vars and system vars there is a "path" variable. Edit it. Copy paste your SDK path and the SDK\Tools path.
Windows XP: Right click My Computer, Properties, Advanced Tab, Environment Variables. In user vars and system vars there is a "path" variable. Edit it. Copy paste your SDK path and the SDK\Tools path.
This will allow ADB to run without being in the sdk\tools folder.
Instructions:
0. Make a backup of framework-res.apk from /system/framework
- Open the command Prompt
: adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk C:\phonetheme\backup\fwbu.apk
: adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk C:\phonetheme\working\framework-res.apk
1. Get APKTOOL.
2. Download the top 2 files. Extract the contents of the files to C:\Windows
3. Open the command prompt
: apktool if C:\phonetheme\backup\fwbu.apk droidx (or whatever your device is)
: apktool d -f -t droidx C:\phonetheme\working\framework-res.apk C:\phonetheme\working\framework-decoded\
Optional. Go to C:\phonetheme\working\framework-decoded\res\drawable-hdpi-v4\ and modify images if you wish. You do not have to do it this way, but it can be done. You can just open the apk with 7 zip and extract them/edit them as well.
4. Go to C:\phonetheme\working\framework-decoded\res\layout
5. Open status_bar_latest_event_content.xml in notepad
6. Where ever you see something like this: android:textColor="?textColorSecondaryInverse"
In between the quotes, replace @color/dim_foreground_dark (or whatever) with a 8 char hex string. The format is NORMAL, not BACKWARD like in Hex. So when you are done you should have something like "#FFFFFFFF". The format is #AARRGGBB
The first color changes the heading "Voicemail Messages"
The second changes the descriptor "Dial *86"
The third changes the datetime stamp
So mine is, "#FFFFFFF", then "#FF747c8d", last "#ffbdc8df"
7. Make all your color changes. Save.
8. Open up the command prompt again
: apktool b C:\phonetheme\working\framework-decoded C:\phonetheme\build\framework-res.apk
Now IF you get a LOT of messages, like hundreds. Your .9.png's are not compiling correctly. You may have to load the originals and start over.
If you get WARNINGS but not many (mine were related to a translation message for "en-GB") then you are fine.
9. Browse to C:\phonetheme\working\framework-decoded\build
Ah ha, that wasn't there before!
10. Open C:\phonetheme\working\framework-res.apk in 7-Zip
11. With it open delete the /res directory, AndroidManifest.xml, resources.arsc files from 7-Zip.
LEAVE THE /META-INF and /assets folders!
12. From the C:\phonetheme\working\framework-decoded\build directory, open apk directory. Select and drag the /res folder, AndroidManifest.xml, and resources.arsc to the 7-Zip window so they are in the archive.
13. Backup C:\phonetheme\working\framework-res.apk. Copy to C:\phonetheme\backup\ and name it something like framework-res-new.apk
14. Open the command prompt window
: adb remount
: adb push C:\phonetheme\working\framework-res.apk /sdcard/framework-res.apk
: adb push C:\phonetheme\backup\fwbu.apk /sdcard/fwbu.apk (you only need to do this when you have a new backup!
: adb shell
#: su (if not already #)
[At this point, I always make my screen on and unlocked, you don't have to, but I like to]
#: cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework/
At this point, if you try and open anything on your phone, it will lock for a second and droid to the droid text/eye animation for a second. IF it loops! You will notice that you are still connected over ADB.
If and only IF it LOOPS from the eye to the text or if the text animation looks obviously broken. Type the following
#: cp /sdcard/fwbu.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
The next time it loops, it will load your backup and start running again. DO NOT REBOOT! Other wise you have to nandroid or SBF it like I did.
#: rm /sdcard/framework-res.apk
#: exit
: adb remount
: adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk C:\phonetheme\backup\fwbu.apk
If it comes up normally, and you get to the lock screen, unlock, and open your notification shade. Tada! You are done!
Best part? Because the decoded folder is there, if you want to make changes you just start at Step 7 again, delete the build folder, re-build and so on.
Here's what mine looks like!

"lightbox_next": "Next",

Last note. If I missed something, let me know, or if you have problems, report them here. I'll try and answer best I can. I worked for hours on this today, so I may have missed something, though I doubt it.
In the XML. Look in the "layout" folder of framework-res.apk. I'm not sure whicl file it is. But try this:
Pull every file from the "layout" folder. Open each XML file in a hex editor, like HxD or Hex Workshop. Now in status_bar.xml if you edit it the right way you can change the color of notification, like when you get a text message or when you connect the phone to a computer. That's for notifications though.
So you might want to try other XML files.
Open an random one (in the hex editor), and look for the values 08 00 00 1C, then you have to change the values AFTER that. The are black so that values are going to be 00 00 00 FF. Change the 0's to the color you want, the color you want has to be a hex value.
If that's confusing. PM, and I'll give you my gTalk.

Yes. He's correct ^^^. I replied to your question in my theme thread and this correlates with what I stated. Look for other status bar xml's. I know there are more than just status_bar.xml

Doesn't work for FroYo.
The hex string 0800001C doesn't exist in the other status bar xmls. I think I've figured this out though.
This is out of status_bar_extended.xml (plain-text)
Code:
android:textColor="?textColorSecondaryInverse"
Then I found a file in /res/values/styles.xml I see:
Code:
<item name="textColorSecondaryInverse">@color/secondary_text_light</item>
Then in /res/color/secondary_text_light.xml
Code:

08 00 00 1C does exist. That's how I was able to change the colors for my theme.
Make sure the there are spaces, exactly like I typed.
I have gone through all of the other status bar xmls, searched for it with and without spaces. Both work in HxD search. Anyway. My method now.
1. Get apk tool and follow the instructions to install
2. Decode framework-res.apk to a dir of your choosing
3. Now you have xmls you can edit without a hex editor, notepad works.
4. Change the values, re-encode with apktool
5. Pop the new framework on.
I'm out smoking a cig I'll test this method when I go back in. and update with results
Getting errors on build...hrm...
EDIT: Finally got it to build. Making a nandroid backup before copying it back though....
EDIT2: built and then signed (which I shouldn't have done apparently) almost bricked. Apparently my nandroid backup failed too -.- says it can't mount the sdcard. I'll be back, have to SBF to 2.1 then Root, then install 2.2 again.
EDIT3: Whew, after a scare where SBF failed (had to format the ROM!) got it back on. About 15 minutes and I'll try somethin else.
EDIT4: Finally looks like I'm ok...working on nandroid, keep getting an error....
if you edit an xml file can you drop it straight into an unzipped fram folder, rezip it, rename it and install?
No. because the apk is decompiled. It has to be recompiled then I think signed. I've tried a couple methods and every time I copy the recompiled one to system, signed or not I get trapped at a logo loop. Thankfully if you use adb to copy the framework over you can copy a good one back the adb connection stays open. Copy it back and after a few seconds it starts to loaf properly again
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
when i decompile it said it couldnt for a few files, so recompiling will give me a bad apk, what if you recompile then pull just the xml files and place them in a good framework.apk . Have you tried that yet?
how many xml's are you changing at once?

Just one. The reason I can't just drag and drop to a known good one is that the folder is not in the normal one. There are a bunch of folders missing. Look at the decoded folder vs. what's in the file when opened with 7-zip.
I'm changing /res/values/colors.xml
no luck with status_bar.xml in res/layout ? there is colors in there...
Thought I had it there for a sec....getting much much closer. I can compile now, I get warnings but no errors...
Before when I had a "bad" framework, the droid text wouldn't even animate right, never got to the eye either.
Now I can get to the eye, but it just loops. Can fix by adb'ing the files back.
... Still working on this. Not giving up.,
EDIT: Yes. I'm positive. I've edited all I can in that file.
imma see what i can get out of this

you have exactly what i need for my theme, white verizon , notification text and white date.
Note the Verizon is changed by a services.jar hack. Not this XML editing method.
Anybody know of a way to change it? I have goggled and i have searched these forums up and down and cant find a way to do it if the phone has a sim... It was easy on sprint.
you have to decompile frameworkres and change strings.xml

You can try it like we did with GB... not sure if it was changed/rearranged in ICS...
-Decompile SystemUI.apk
-Open /res/layout/status_bar.xml with Notepad++ (or similar)
-Look for this line (taken from stock 2.3.6):
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.StatusBarView android:orientation="vertical" android:background="@drawable/statusbar_background" android:focusable="true" android:descendantFocusability="afterDescendants"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<LinearLayout android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@id/icons" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
[COLOR="Red"]<TextView android:textAppearance="@android:style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Icon" android:textSize="16.0sp" android:textStyle="bold" android:gravity="left|center" android:id="@id/onsText" android:paddingLeft="6.0px" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:singleLine="true" android:maxLength="18" />[/COLOR]
-Change the values in the red highlighted line to look like this:
Code:
<TextView android:textAppearance="@android:style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Icon" android:textSize="0.0sp" android:textStyle="bold" android:gravity="left|center" android:id="@id/onsText" android:paddingLeft="0.0px" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:singleLine="true" android:maxLength="0" />
Note that there are probably other ways to accomplish the same effect (maybe delete that line entirely?) - but this way works by reducing the text to nothingness.
-Save the .xml
-Compile the .apk and...
a. compile with APK Manager and delete the status_bar.xml from the "keep" folder when prompted
b. or compile how you normally would and with 7-zip (or the like) drag and drop the newly edited and compiled status_bar.xml to your old SystemUI.apk
NOTE: For all of the above you will need to set the framework for apktool before you will be able to de/recompile apks.
-Drop copies of framework-res.apk, moto-res.apk, blur-res.apk, and SystemUI.apk into the same folder as apktool (with APK Manager it's the "other" folder)
-Open the command prompt on the folder where apktool is (by right-clicking or holding Shift and right-clicking)
-Type the following for each apk in the command prompt:
Code:
apktool if framework-res.apk
-Hit enter
Code:
apktool if moto-res.apk
-Hit enter, and do the same for the other two apks
-Now you should have no de/recompiling problems (well I shouldn't say no... watch them .9.pngs and check the log for errors)

For L Style Header(EASY) go HERE
For Panel Transparency go HERE
For adding L Style Date/Clock View go HERE
To add Battery/WiFi/Bluetooth/Alarm icons in Header go HERE
Yo guys! Toady I am here with a more perfect guide for Lollipop Style header! No smali work, no Public comparing, only layout game!
For Panel Transparency like mine, go HERE
Let's begin.
Decompile your SystemUI.
Go to res/layout and COPY status_bar_expanded_header.xml [MTK] / tw_status_bar_expanded_header.xml [TouchWiz]
Paste it on your Desktop or in any other directory where you wish to.
Rename that xml to l_bar_expanded_header.xml
Now copy and paste l_bar_expanded_header.xml in your SystemUI/res/layout.
Next, open gemini_status_bar_expanded.xml [MTK] / tw_status_bar_expanded_dual.xml [TouchWiz]
{TIP FOR TOUCHWIZ USERS: IF YOU DON"T HAVE tw_status_bar_dual.xml IN YOUr Samsung's UI, THEN OPEN tw_status_bar_expanded.xml}
Now in the xml, find [MTK]
Code:
<include android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="@dimen/notification_panel_header_height" layout="@layout/status_bar_expanded_header" />
For TouchWIz[JB], find this:
Code:
<include android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="@dimen/tw_notification_panel_header_height" layout="@layout/tw_status_bar_expanded_header" />]
Paste this code below the above line:
Code:
<include layout="@layout/l_bar_expanded_header" />
Save the xml.
Now, go to res/layout and open status_bar_expanded_header.xml [MTK] / tw_status_bar_expanded_header.xml [TouchWiz] and find:
Code:
@id/clock
in the same line, find:
Code:
android:layout_width="blablabla" android:layout_height="blablabla"
Make it look like this:
Code:
android:layout_width="0.0dip" android:layout_height="0.0dip"
Now in the same XML, find,
Code:
@id/date
in the same line find:
Code:
android:layout_width="blablabla" android:layout_height="blablabla"
Make it look like this:
Code:
android:layout_width="0.0dip" android:layout_height="0.0dip"
Now, in second line of the xml find:
Code:
android:background="blablabla"
Make it look like this:

WHAT CAN YOU DO NOW?If you want to add battery meter, or network bar in header, add it in status_bar_expanded_header.xml, and if you want to add potato weather by Sir @mariozawa in header again, add the code in l_statusbar_expanded_header.xml
In short! You made a two tabbed header!
