Super Dark Notification bar?? - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a Super Dark Notification bar theme that makes the Notification bar Blend with the Nexus One's Outer layer ((the Black lining ))?

You won't get it as dark as the actual border, but there are plenty of "black bar" notification bar tweaks. Check out my signature for a version of black bar that works in FroYo (FRF50, not 72 yet, sadly).
Look in the Themes and Apps section for more. Also, if you use the search function, you'll find a ton for whatever custom ROM you are on already.

Do you need to root frf50 ti change the colour of the notification bar?

Do you need a rooted Frito frf50 to replace the standard notification bar with a black one?

exactly as above. i use a completely black color, 100% true black. and then use a true black wallpaper, so that they blend together completely. cant tell one bit, and it looks great! plus its saving so much battery

Thats exactly what im looking for!! Does it work with Froyo??

yes i am using one with froyo. just search around for the thread.

You'll never get it as dark as the border, purely because it's a backlit screen, so even 100% black will still be fairly light. Hell, even when the display goes off it's still not 'that' black.
But yeah, the picture that icegad posted will be as dark as you can get it.

Stopped being lazy, made XDA darker. Like it?

If you're like me and the white of sites hurts ya, might like grey text on black. You can use Stylish with XDA - High Contrast style to change it. If you do that you'll see the text is yellow but you can edit it and use #736F6E everywhere you find #FFFF33.
I know off topic and outa left field, but know some others like dark themes too:
Stylish - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stylish/
XDA - High Contrast = http://userstyles.org/styles/24695/xda-high-contrast
(All credit for style goes to sickbox)
PS, side note, if width requires you to use bottom scroll bar, change width in style. I changed it from 1200 to 1000 and worked perfect.

Please move if out of place. Meant to put in off topic but got distracted while reading in general and posted here.
Sorry
Looks cool
That is pretty awesome actually
Nice! But I prefer Blue
So mine's a little weird...anyone know what's going on with this?

The main background of the website is right (black) but the forums are still their original background color with some text colors changed.
I'm running FF 4.0.1 right now.

There are 11 instances of #FFFF33 to replace with whatever HTML colour you choose. In vBulletin each little section is controlled by a command so if you skip that section, you'll end up with it being white or whatever colour it was before.
And by all means, experiment with different colours. If you wanna change the body or boarder to a different colour than black all you have to do is find the colour you want and change it, just make sure you put "!important;" (without " marks) to override the style native colour

That is just great. Looks beautiful. Keep them coming. What about making a black version of the slate skin instead of the plain grey?

I have 3 different Black skins on the market now.
Looks great! The only thing I'd change is the battery percentage indicator... some graphic with the percentage, rather than just text. Maybe a colored ring (like the inner portion of an Identity Disk, as you used for the lock ring; however, ending at the blue line, which would be the percentage indicator, maybe with text in the middle?).
EDIT: Something along the lines of this battery indicator - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1214789
ohhhhhhh I would use that!

it would be sweet if the battery images where included in skins, but there not. anyone can use the UOT kitchen and make whatever battery mod they want in minutes.
while I can understand the sexayness of the transparent dropdown shade, seeing yours just kind of gives me the impression of too cluttered. Well I dont mean on JUST yours, but ever transparent one,then again it all depends on how much stuff one has on their homescreens when the shades down
I agree. normally mine aren't full trans but I just made an animated drop down mod so it kinda has to be for that.

SMS Icon

I saw this pic while reading an article and if you look at the icon for text messaging that on the phone in the pic. Its read and black instead of the standard green. I've been trying to find this icon everywhere cause I think it look hella badass but I haven't had any luck. Does anyone know where I can find it

Hard to see, but I think the red is from another app that's behind the SMS app.
I may be able to create a custom icon for you if you like

That would be cool of you, if you did a black SMS icon for me. How do you make em ? Photoshop ?
Also, i was gonna ask in your ICS THeme thread, but i will just ask you here. I just downloaded the latest update and i dig it. THe only thing that i think would be sweet would be changing the 4G icon to match the other ICS style icons. Just a thought. Oh and the lil loading spinner thing. I just did it myself using Metamorph, they had a download for it on DroidPirate, but that would be cool if it came with your theme. Also, are you planning on themeing some launcher/app drawer ICS-style icons eventually ? Right now I just the ADW Theme on top of yours and it works, but it would be cool if i didn't have to. And plus there theme doesn't change every icon to match the Icons in ICS, only a few of em. So right now I am going through and changing the .png files for the icons in the actual App folder, so that way it shows up on both the app drawer and the home screen/dock.
Looks like a blacked out android SMS icon with ics blue smilie face... its in a folder, so the red is from the app behind it... now I want that icon! Haha

[Q] Modifications for 240 HDPI

Hey guys!
I recently changed my DPI setting to 240 HDPI
Would like to know if there is anything you can do to get the JKay mod to be bigger on the lockscreen. Or at least make more buttons so it fills out the screen cuz it just looks bad specially when its in the center of the screen..
At least it would be nice to put the buttons on the bottom of the screen.
And for all you others who have 240 HDPI density, would be nice if u could post what u had to do to adjust the apps and mods to look good.. So we could have everythin in one thread. Lets see how many replies this thread gets and the i will edit my post so its more of a collection of links or sumthing for users who dont have a clue what to do when they change their DPI settings.
All I had to do was to get exDialer and a modded S-memo

Where did you get that modded S-memo? It's annoying as hell that the backgrounds don't work anymore after changing DPI. A plain white background is apparently build up of white lines, which get tore apart if you change DPI haha.

and for more info i found this thread also

These threads solved all my problems
I also recommend ADW EX launcher, its awesome, so fast and smooth
Good luck mate
Thanks for the reply!!
Btw, LauncherPro also works great with lower DPI. Setting more columns makes for much more room for icons on the homescreens. And of course more info!

S Pen Writing Color on the Glaxay Note 9

Yes, yes.. I get you can disable the pen color so that it shows up on white after a save..
But that's not why I'm here..
When the AOD (Always on Display) is active and I removed the pen several days ago I somehow was able to pick and choose my pen color to write on the AOD. I specifically remember choosing different colors, reinserting the pen and seeing how it looked on the dark background. Dark background being the Screen off memo.
I took the "purple" (Totally Lavendar Pinkish!) Note 9 back for the blue one and now I'm unable to choose or locate how to choose the pen color now.. So frustrating cause I know you can do that!
I'm lost..
How strange..
I clearly remember choosing colors and testing them out on the dark AOD display.
What am I missing here?
BS
Did you miss this setting?

I think you're misremembering. It's been well documented in reviews that you cannot change the color (only revert back to white).
