Getting Spare Parts to work on rooted N1 2.2? - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have searched everywhere and tried everything to get Spare parts to work on stock froyo rom. I've extracted the .apk from other roms with no luck, then I figured I would extract the .apk from a froyo built rom, and that didn't work. All I want to do is customize my status (notification) bar. Does anyone know if this is even possible or is their a different program I can use? I used to have it on CM 5.0.7.1 and it worked great.
Thanks

Anyone? I just need to be pointed in the right direction. Can someone explain why the spare parts apk in CM 5.0.7.1 can change notification bar, but when you use the same apk on a different rom it installs and displays, but doesn't work. Does it have something to do with the framework?

framework-res.apk problem when using metamorph

hi guys. im new to this forum and would like some help on how to change the status bar on my milestone(droid).. my phone is rooted and i have metamorph installed and am running android 2.1 stock.
When i apply a theme to other apks from metamorph everything is fine but when i try to apply it to the framework-res.apk my phone reboots and nothing is changed i also tried to use AndoidCommander to pull the framework-res.apk manually, change the images and put it back in but it doesnt change any help pls? Thanks
Wrong section, and try using the search function.
sorry which forum is it supposed to be in?
also i tried to search but nothing seemed to work
ok guys i managed to at least push the apk using the terminal app.. but everytime it reboots everything starts to force close and i have to reinstall the sbf using rsd lite... do you know what im doing wrong please?
Um well I don't bother with theming myself, but in the absence of any more helpful responses, if you're running a stock ROM I imagine it's odex'ed & you can't theme an odex'ed ROM. You could look into deodexing the ROM but aiui it's quite a bit of work. Probably easier to find a custom ROM you like, which isn't odex'ed & start from that. E&OE.
thanks for replying mate the problem is that the milestone cannot run custom ROMs due to a locked bootloader... the problem is that i can mod all the apks except the framework-res.apk, which when modified using the terminal app, makes all the applications force close..
EDIT: ok i tried to deodex the modified framework-res.apk and push it on the phone but still didn't work any help guys?

[Q] App installation issue

First of all, I hope I've put this in the right section... If not, please move it to the appropriate location and don't get too mad at me. I'm running an Acer Liquid E with cyanogen on it and I have found that I am completely unable to install my favourite app ever. Tasker is something that I have been using for a few months now and really don't know how I could live without it on my phone anymore... If I try and install it from the phone I get an error message saying that the application could not be installed. No more information than that from the device itself unfortunately. I then tried to install it through ADB and it at least cranks back that it cannot install due to a missing DLL file. I was able to use Tasker on the official 2.1, and the official 2.2, but with CM on it I can't get anywhere... The problem is that I won't go back to the stock rom since my phone crashes every time I make or receive a phone call after 10 minutes of the phone being in standby, and I need to wait for the radio to reboot before I can even make a call. Any suggestions? I am more than willing to pull the offending DLL file out of the stock update and place it in to the CM rom if anyone might be able to point out which file I need and where it would be located. Please let me know if there is any more information I could provide that would help.
Maybe try the Liquid Metal ROM on top of stock 4.002.14, it's pretty fast & maybe it'll fix your crashes too.
Alright, definitely willing to give that a go, but I'm kind of new to playing around with my Liquid still... Things are a lot different with it than my Magic was. When you say stock 4.002.14 do you mean the official 2.2 update with a custom rom flashed over top? I don't entirely follow you here, but that could be just because I'm tired. Just search for some Liquid Metal how-to guide lovin' I'm guessing?
edit: Thanks dude, you rock! The Metal rom fixed all my issues, and sped my phone up too, and without needing to push it up to 1GHz... And I get to go back to having my bottom mounted notification bar again! Awesomeness all around. Thanks again.

[Q][App] Functioning Blockbuster APK??

Does anyone have a functioning Blockbuster APK for the Fascinate? I've tried downloading the version available in sonofskywalker's folder on ROM Manager, but it refuses to install. Thanks in advance!
If you download the full.zip for dl09 you can find it in there.
Dumb follow-up question
I've tried using the blockbuster apk from the DL09 and DJ05 roms but it fails on install. It acts like its going to install but ends up failing. I did find one version that installed from one of the other phone forums (either Droid X or Since) but after the install of that version it wanted to update and it couldn't find a file to update. Sorry for the stupid questions, I'm fairly new at this, although I haven't come across something I couldn't get done yet Thanks for the help! By the way, I'm running the DL09 build-your-own rom from sonofskywalker and an Adrynalyne kernel (12/30 I believe).

[Q] Battery Mod

Okay so far ive installed paragon rc4, cognition 3.04, and assonance 5.2. What Im trying to do seems like it should be simple I want the battery icon from uot kitchen version c with the grey numbers.
I tried running everyone of the framework.apk files thru uot like it told me too with all three roms and everytime i do it wont let me download just gives me a error report. I tried to install a couple mods with clockwork mod it gets stuck in bootloop.
Ive been looking for two days and cant figure out what Im missing. I just wanna theme the icons on the status bar so they look similar to how they do on my hd2 runnin core droid.
Please help. Im kinda new at this but ive reflashed my phone with odin like 55 times trying to get this right.
Paragon seems to be the fastest but I cant deal with all the green Im kinda ocd about that lol. There may not be a way. I cant find a rom that looks the way I want.

Like the status bar on here I know its a sense ui i just want the status bar to look the same.
If I had to guess, there's a problem with the Nine Patch data. I know that I had no clue how to do it until like Serendipity 3 or something, and that a lot of themes have bad ninepatch data.
Download APK Manager and try and decompile it. If the log.txt talks about missing nine patch data in xxxx.9.png then that is the problem.

WidgetLocker Themes in Samsung Infuse 4G Don't Work?

Has anyone figured out a way to install these on a Samsung Infuse? I can pull up the slider, but not the total theme.
I have a rooted phone and the latest version of WL.
I have tried putting the zips directly in the correct path, and also downloading them on the phone. Both only give me the option to actually create a slider, not the actual theme.
Any suggestions? Thanks!
Running stock AT&T ROM too.
