How to Customize Windows Mobile Notification Popups?
here is an old example what i mean
I would also like to know more about this!
Hey Xplode!
The notification bubble seems to be a regular image file just like the ones used for taskbar, etc. I guess if we look into the mui files, we should be able to find it. If I am right, then one can modify it with any graphics editor and replace it back in the mui just like with the Start logo. Let me know what you think.
well the million $ question is which resource in which file is responsible for notification popup

Seems that we have no choice but to look for it... I see a long night ahead of us. I'll bring the coffee
BTW, where is that screenshot from? Is that a shop or is it real?
well the screeshot comes from early WM5 designs, it was created for operators to show them how they can customize WM5 ...
but this was back in the days and i havent seen such customization anywhere, also the gradient bar on top of any window and notification corresponds by color to the applied theme, but the rest is pure white, so i should find the popup window somewhere and see if it uses any resources at all
any new word on this? i am currently searching but have no leads.
I'm not sure HOW, but I'm 100% sure it's possible - FingerSuite 1.11 does this.
I'm running it on my Jade, and it fully customised the menu's and notifications.

Update; Nope sorry, looked to quickly at your example. Fingersuite only edits the menu with copy/paste etc and the notification popups with yes/no buttons etc.
search for SmileySMS. you can then talk to the author... he might be able to help.

Use these instructions at your own risk.
What happens if it doesnt work?
Worst case scenario: You get a heart attack thinking you bricked your phone
More likely scenario: It works and you end up happy with a nice looking desire bar on your N1.
Less likely scenario: You get a boot loop, which can be easily fixed by re-flashing CM (you wont even lose data)
Instructions - Method 1, use MetaMorph (probably the easiest method):
1. Use CyanogenMod settings to change clock/date/notification text to light grey/white color (or use this XML)
2. Install MetaMorph and BusyBox from market
3. Download the morph/s below and move them to your phone
4. Apply the morph using MetaMorph
Morphs (also available at androidmorph.com):
desire_notification_bar.zip Just the original desire bar + desire icons + stock pulldown menu
Desirebar-Black-Pulldown.zip Desire bar + desire icons + desire pull down (see screenshot) - thanks to Saphroxx
stock_battery_icon.zip Changes your battery icon back to the one included in the stock rom
Alternative methods to get the black desire bar (no longer supported):
Method 2, use my framework-res.apk:
1. Use Spare Parts to change clock/date/notification text to light grey/white color (or use this XML)
2. Download framework-res_XXX.apk and rename it to framework-res.apk
3. adb remount
4. adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/
5. reboot (if phone doesnt reboot by itself)
Download framework-res.apk:
CM 5.0.7.1 (n1gapps)
CM 5.0.8 (gapps-passion-EPF30-signed, radio-4.06.00.12_7)
Method 3, create your own framework-res.apk:
1. Use Spare Parts to change clock/date/notification text to light grey/white color (or use this XML)
2. Download this zip containing the PNGs for the desire bar
3. adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk framework-res.apk
4. Open the framework-res.apk on your pc using winrar (or any other packaging software that supports adding files to archives without compression)
5. Add the PNGs in the res.zip file to the framework-res.apk file (put them into \res\drawable-hdpi) without using compression! ("store" method)
6. adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/
7. Reboot, if phone doesnt reboot by itself
Note: If after the update installing apps from the market causes FCs go to settings/apps/manage apps/market and hit "delete updates"
Want the transparent Lamppu widget?
Get it here (uninstall your version of Lamppu before installing this one)
can we have one for froyo ?
Desirebar-BlackPulldown-SenseBatteryIcons can be found in my signature
Here is the one I am using on 5.0.8
I take no credit or responsibility for it, i pulled the png files from another apk and put them in this one that was on my phone after updating to CM5.0.8.
make sure when you push it you rename it to the proper name
has anyone tried this with TBA?
I am sorry for hijacking this thread but is there any way to change the notification bar on a stock Froyo FRF72 without rooting?
I've had enough of the white taskbar!
This looks great, only thing that doesent fit my taste is the black color of the provider if you drag down the notifications bar. Anyway I can change it to white color?

Yes, go to "Settings" -> "Spare Parts" and change operator text color

I don't know the correct english terms for the settings menu entries since im using a german version. But the option should be close to the bottom (5th from the bottom) in the spare parts menu under "General" -> "Operator Color"
Is there any way that you could add the battery percent like the regular CyanogenMod notification bar?
bewA said:

Yes, it works. After applying this Desire Notification Bar for 5.0.8, I opened TrackBallAlert and was able to succesfully Patch CM5 to use with TBA.
Last update from CM5.0.6 to CM5.0.7.1, I had to uninstall TBA and re-install, which is not needed when upgrading from CM5.0.7.1 to CM5.0.8.
BUMP: Is it possible to morph the dropdownmenu aswell so it's black? Or help me hand so I can do it myself and provide you afterwards? Would be awesome!
The font-color can easily be modified to white in SpareParts.
EDIT: I figured it out myself how to make a morph. In attachment you can find XebozZ' awesome Desirebar, with black Pulldown Menu added by myself. Also tested with TrackBall Alert and it works. You will have to change the font settings of the provider to white again in SpareParts if you use the Desire-Black-Pulldown.
Screenshot in attachmentent!
Enjoy!

The battery percentage works just like with the stock battery icon. If it doesnt show up try to disable it, reboot, enable and reboot again.
In case you want the stock battery icon check out my first post, i just added a morph that restores the original icon.

MANY thanks...finally, a morph that actually works and doesn't have any issues flashing framework..(long story).
Thanks again you guys...looks great.
I get a error saying the control file is missing. I just installed 5.0.8

Pretty sure the control file is there, it's called Desire-Black-Pulldown.thm.
Make sure you do not rename unzipped content etc.
Applying should only take half a minute and your phone will show a message that it will reboot.
Its there its vanishing, i get it to work soemtimes i have been poking around other forums and users are saying the same thing it just sits at applying frames now i tried a few themes ppl said worked with 5.0.8

Can some one send me the desire blackbar for froyo ? thanks!
I've taken the liberty of creating a ~50% shaded status bar as well as a fully transparent one. This has been compiled with Jercik's Smooth Sense icons and Xeudoxus' shaded notifcation background, of which i obviously take no credit for either of those modifications and would also like to thank both of them for their creations. I believe everyone should give them a hearty thank you as well.
EDIT: BIG thanks to yojoe600 for the edited services.jar with no location AND transparent status background. all zips have been updated with it, meaning no more location icon in status bar.
As with anything, do a nandroid just in case something goes wrong.
Anyways, here's a few shots of the bars:
shaded bar

some light bugs:
after installing the zip and booting up for first time, widgets may be doubled over themselves. just remove them and put them back up again, issue is fixed.
when debugging is enabled, upon connecting to pc through usb, weather info on the stock weather widget will disappear. just flick to a different homescreen and back, it will fix.
If any other bugs are found, please post it so i can see if i can fix it.

Well done! Quick question. Is the notification text color white? Example: "charge only" "usb debugging" on going apps etc.
would love to try this, but mediafire isn't letting me download it.
Great job!! Looks great and I experienced none of the "bugs" you mentioned.

Yea text is still white. I think the text color is handled by a .jar file or xml, which i dont know how to edit yet. But im getting ready to learn java development so hopefully soon i will.
Good to hear you guys arent experiencing the bugs i did.
Thanks!
Links were not working this morning.
Appreciate it!!!
Is it possible to compile this with the smooth sense icons/ round battery indicator? I'd do it myself but I don't know how.
good stuff!

Um... "This has been compiled with Jercik's Smooth Sense icons" or were you referring to something else?
Question
I do not want the batteries and some of the other stuff. Can you tell me which files were edited so I can include them in my own theme? Thanks for the help.
Ps Looks good. Good job.

Cant remember off the top of my head which ones were edited, not at my computer atm but ill let you know when i get on it in a couple hours.
As for adding the super round battery, ill compile that as well when i get home.
the png for status bar editing is statusbar_background.png.
links are up for super circle battery version (green).
Let me know if any of the other colors were desired.
Can you edit this to hide the location notification up top? When i flash this it comes back.

yea, i tried flashing the noloc.zip over this, but the shaded notification background (the background for when you pull down the status bar, not the bar itself) is a services.jar edit which is packed in with this zip. unfortunately the no location mod is also a services.jar edit, meaning one will replace the other when flashed. and i dont know how to edit .jars yet, so i could ask pmf if he'd be willing to show me what he edited in the .jar to remove the icon and see if i could add it in as well. i'll let you know when/if this happens.
until then, if you still want to remove the location icon, you can still flash pmf's zip to get rid of it, youll just possibly lose the shaded notification background at worst. it shouldnt change anything else.

Awesome!
the link to the services.jar only didnt have the no location, so i downloaded the .zip and pulled the services from there.
I installed the zip from the op for shaded smooth sense/super circle green. The battery notification does not show up at all. A blank space where the battery notification would be.
edit: it works when I have the phone plugged in to charge, but once I disconnect the charge the battery icon disappears again.
Hey guys, ive done some searching around for an answer to this, but cant find an answer related specifically to the Note 10.1.
Thought I should ask some expert advice before I mess up my tablet!
I just want to change the colour of my softkeys/status bar icons, from white to blue. I was going to use darkmans BlueDark theme, which is mostly freat, but unfortunatrly it will only work if I let it add a data signal icon to my bar (im on an 8010 so thats not ideal).
It also changes the discrete little multi-window menu arrow, to a huge blue tab thing, which I dont like. (An alternative solution is a way to edit this big tab out of the theme? Maybe I should ask darkman)
I just want to change the status softkeys (keyboard minimise, back, home, task manager, screenshot, multiwindow) colours/icons.
Only decent guide I found was this:
http://www.droid-life.com/2012/01/0...s-soft-keys-to-customized-colors-or-versions/
But its for the nexus phone, with some different icons, so wasnt sure if it was the way to go..
Im on an 8010, with revolutionHD 8.0 ROM.
Thanks for any help you can give
In thoughts to by an Mate 9 but have a few questions:
1) Is there a expanded desktop option on Huawei Mate 9?
2) Does Nova Launcher work well on the letest update on it?
3) I would appreciate if someone could post a screenshot with the View Mode on the smallest and the Font Size on the smallest? It is important for me to get the very small text you find in Lionage Os.
4) Hows it going with the release of the Kernal of the phone? Lineage Os?
5) How well have the camera worked on previous Huawei phones with custom roms, have they still been the same afterwards? I have experienced on three different phones that the camera went worse after installing Cyanogen Mod, Lineage Os...
6) How hard is it to port the camera app from Huawei to an custom rom?
I can't answer the custom rom and root questions, i can help you with the other stuff though.
1) No there isn't
2) It works amazingly well!
3) what do you want to screenshot me? The settings page with the font size or a specific app?
Sorry for not being able to answer everythinf, hope i still helped you a bit

If you want custom ROMs I'd advise you to find another device if not this is the whole package the best phone I have ever used and I've used most of them.

Sorry for bumping a week old thread. Just wanted to let you guys know that you can actually hide the status bar up top. Download Tiles from the Play Store. It lets you add quick settings tiles for just about anything. There's one for immersive mode, where you can press the tile and it'll hide the status bar, navigation bar, system bar or a dialog for your choosing. I have it set so whenever I toggle the quick setting tile, it hides the status bar up top, which is what you are looking for. It works great.
Here is a pair of screenshots of the quick tiles from the app, and how it looks like without the status bar. Let me know if you need any help or have any other questions.
