I was not sure of where to post this so i posted in both themes and general discussion, i was just wondering whether there is any MOD/APP that would be able to change the look of the Stock TouchWiz status bar to look like the Stock Android status bar?
I was also wondering the same thing
is there? i've seen a lot of screenshots with the stock status bar, and i really want it. is there anyone out there that could give us some help? Thanks a lot if anyone could.
Well, you can use a mod call Domination.

there's 3Minit Framework, it allows alot of costumization even more than the statusbar

Hello,
Can anyone tell me where I can get a transparent notification bar for Skyraider 3.0 Vanilla? I have tried different ROMs using Metamorph and none of them work. Please Help!!!!
The thread is in this forum. Look for smooth sense icons and transparent notification

You will get better response by including some reference to what you are looking for. Say "Transparent notification bar for Skyraider?" rather than just "Question?".
If you want the transparent notification pull down then you will have to mod the services.jar. If you do a search there are many people who have already created these. Do you have any inparticular you are looking for?
Hey gang!
I was perusing the Themes and Apps Section for the Evo 4g and noticed a couple trends. A lot of the themes and mods are for the ports of late, which is awesome! But I know some of you are very happy with the Sense 1.0 with GB that we've received recently (OTA 4.22). While I prefer the Sense 2.1 with GB Roms myself, I want to provide mods and themes for all sorts of stuff. The other trend I noticed was that a few flashers wanted transparency. Everyone loves transparency, right? With Gingerbread, as many devs and themers have found out, theming is much more ingrained in dex code than previous issues of Android OS. No worries, there are some smart cookies floating around.
Well, I just wanted to upload this for the folks out there who would like to start theming or want to incorporate transparent Statusbar and Notification Area but are not quite familiar with smali/baksmali and xml editing. I have uploaded deodex and odex versions of the mod.
Here is exactly what I did in general terms.
used baksmali to decompile the SystemUI.odex
edited two lines in "com/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService.smali"
used smali to compile the smali folder back to classes.dex
made the statusbar 100% transparent (just for sample purposes, ie it can any level of transparency, not necessarily clear) but PhotoShopping "statusbar_background" in SystemUI.apk/res/drawable-hdpi
used apktool to decompile SystemUI.apk
made the notifications text white instead of black by editing values
made the notification area a transparent black instead of stock white
I think that is all that I did...
This little mod was by request and I can't guarantee that everything is 100%. I should also note that the ROM I used to was xHausx's stock odex rom as found HERE. Thanks xHAUSx! I figure this one would be as stock as it gets, and also the requester is using this ROM.
Let me know how it goes. I do not to take credit for actually coming up with the mod for transparency for Gingerbread. That smali hack should be credited to KBanause. What I did was make it work for the Evo and also inverted the text color a little bit. I also do not take credit for broken devices. Please Nandroid.
Sorry for the long post!
Deodex download
Odex Download
Thanks Tom, I will let you know how things go.

Well...it works, and it looks nice on my home screen, but the white icons and stuff make it impossible to read the notification bar in some apps like gmail. Still cool though
p.s. This was on Fresh 4.1.1.0 btw
Would it be difficult to make it play nice with this status bar mod? The only thing that remains after flashing your mod over his is the battery percentage. Thanks in advance!

Hey guys. I'm sorry but I do not use this ROM, and thus it will be difficult for me to make mods for it.
I only wanted to release this so peeps can do it with their flavor. Maybe one of the other themers who use this Rom like rydah can fill these requests.
I do however, agree with the white icons being too white.

Love the mod. We just need the status bar up top solid black while having the dropdown transparent. I'll take a look at it and see what I can come up with . I'm good with xmls not smalis.

Just insert a black png for the status bar. I only enabled the transparent, but it isn't necessary.

Let me ask you. What Rom are you using? Also, if you using stock Rom, you're likely on 4.24 ota. This was made for 4.22.
I've had same issue btw. A full restart worked for me.

I'm using MikG which is using 4.24 OTA. It's Sense 2.1 so I guess no go. What would be the best way to replicate your theme? I know how to replace the background png but I don't know how to edit scripts or anything for the font color change.

MikG is not based on OTA. It is based in Evo shift ota which had sense 2.1.
Go to themikmik.com and you will find this mod in several themes.

That one has poor reviews, and doesn't look to be free...
Sorry, I guess this is a necropost, but I'm looking for the same thing, and have been for quite some time.
I'm rooted, running CM 10.1, and running the XPosed framework. I've seen a couple of themes, but they always do things like change the dialer layout, or something... I really just want to turn that shade of blue white, and I guess just doing that in the notification bar would be fine.

Anything is possible if PAC ROM already flashed in your device. It has so many option to customize your phone's look and feel. Have a try and good luck.
Is there any xposed module that can change the notification panel's background color to match that of the running current app via the color of the statusbar?
Verizon gs3 running the cleanrom5. Is there such a zip to remove the clock from the status bar? Have been looking around the net and have tried numerous options to no avail. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
I can't answer your question... just wanted to add that I'm stock and I wish we could remove the clock from the status bar...it kind of makes widget clocks seem useless.

Don't know if this helps as it requires knowledge of decompiling and compiling but this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2002705 is a guide for adding a toggle for that.
Go to the themes and apps section and download kindacrap mods. There's an option in the install to have no clock. You can customize a lot of other things also. Works great with CleanRom 5.

I was happy to see transparent bar when i got my s4.... but i noticed smthng strange lately
when we use stock wallpapers the transparent bar kicks in and the moment we use non-stock wallpapers the bar changes to non transparent..
see images....any suggestions
Yeah this kinds sucks but my thinking is that Samsung did it this way otherwise they would have a load of calls saying that all my status icons have vanished because someone has used a light grey wallpaper....
Just noticed that too.....not good.....hopefully samsung changes this

For what I've tried the transparent bar onky works with stock live and regular wallpapers. It's kinda of a bummer Samsung did it this way.

Its actually completely understandable.
If the wallpaper was the same colour as your notification icons you wouldnt be able to see anything.
its quite cool that they put the transparent feature in there for their wallpapers.
Mebbe a later update will give you the option by asking if you want transparent notification bar ... or the other option is to find a decent developer web site where people are ingenious and helpful and will do this for you .... oh hang on ....... look at the URL!
