WildpuzzleROM have that allredy. hmm but not the tiny bar, but when you drag that down it will be transparent.
Regard Daniel
(ps more themes WILL come, when i have time to spare)

I 've managed to extract framework folder.I opened framework-res.apk and found a lot of folders.I assume the .png i am looking for is located in drawable-ldpi folder,but the problem is that i cannot find which .png it is.If someone could guide me things would be much easier.Thanks Daniel for your response,can't wait for your themes...

Hey there!
sorry for activating up that old thread, but i'm trying to get my statusbar transparent at the momen.
I think al almost did it, there's just one strange "bug".
I changed all the *.png relatet to the status bar with transparent pictures, that does work for now i think,
BUT:
If my Screen is locked, i can see the background picture behind the status bar, if screen is unlocked, background picture is "cut" under the statusbar, statusbar is just black, if i drag down the bar, i can see that the dragdown menu is "sliding" between the statusbar and that strange black background....
any suggestions or tips?

If you have it working that far i cen tell you how to see it on regular screen too. You need to be running ADW.launcher (or launcher pro but i have no idea how to enable it)
In ADW launcher there is a setting for Wallpaper hack , in system settings i believe. Turn that off and you should see the wallpaper through the statusbar.

thanks for the reply, would be nice to know how it works with launcher pro, that's my prefered launcher...
will test it in ADW now.

I guess there could be some similar trick to Launcher Pro.

ADW is working fine, looks cool, unfotunately i can't attach files here, if i could, i would share my framework-res.apk with everyone here
I did already build 3 framework-res.apk file, theyre similar to each other, no big changes done, just other style of the status bar and changed battery Icons, sothat normal battery icon is black/white, only the orange an red batteryicons are colored.
Launcher Pro doesn't work, there's no way to use it without the wallpaper hack...
at the moment I'm trying to build my own custom Rom, but have to read more about that before i can realy build one...

[Q] [Req] hidden Status Bar

Hey all you talented developers,...
as our SAMOLED Displays suffer from degradation of the organic LED when constantly emmiting bright white or blue,
some of us found here the need of a hideable status bar.
I searched all the internet and all of this forum but couldn´t find such an app.
Is there any app or widget possible which can hide or un-hide the status bar?
Or is there any adb code that hide it and onther adb code that un-hides it??
Any help would be highly welcome.
Somehow ist should be possible.... at least we are on android
greetz the bapsack
Edit:
P.S.
1. as far as I know no launcher hides the statusbar permanently
2. even though some (!) apps might support fullscreen the status bar is still there in most apps

Both LauncherPro and Zeam have hideable status bars. See market.

the status bar is only hidden in the launcher
if you open any app e.g. internet or navigation the status bar is back in its place

Try dolphin browser, it has full screen I think

I wonder if adding the notitlebar attribute in the framework manifest would work
No clue though, will try when have time or someone else could

Degradation? I don't think so.
Anu source?
I think the display only suffers from a minor burn-in problem, where the burn in disappears after somewhile.

well take this pic of a blank white screen aas a proof
you can still see the status bar as a shadow

ADW.Launcher has a hidable status bar. You just flick your finger UP, the status bar hides. Flick it UP again, it returns.
PS : I can fit in 5 rows of icons easily.

the aim is to hide the freakin status bar permanently
e.g.: even when navigating, web-browsing or running any other app
This adw.Launcher can NOT do!
Just start any app and zack, back is the statusbar no matter what launcher u use ADW.Launcher, Lauchner.Pro or Zeam

I have status bar burn in, viewable on the screen test blue background.
5 months, low brightness, status bar hidden most of the time using launcher pro.
Pretty sad really

That's not even a Galaxy S hah, and no burn in here with launcher pro 99% of it's life. I'm not sure how this is viewed, but if someone without a status bar is getting the same thing, it's seems a bit irrelevant in general to blame the status bar?

@bapsack
I accidently thanked you for that post hah wanted to quote it, anyways the reason for that is because it's not possible to replace that yet obviously, nothing integrates all the dynamic info it displays. It's required sorry bud!

tell me how to do and I will check

My bet is:
-make your notification bar 0-20% black
-set 50%/50%/20% R/G/B color for notification bar font and make icons with blurred edges in the same color
NO way you will get a burn.

Thnak you MACHETE.

[Q]theming statusbar transparent

I would like to theme the statusbar to be transparent， and it works ，but there is still a shadow line under the status bar ，so is there a way to remove the shadow ，thank you in advance。

I like it very much! Especially the shadow. Is there any chance you will publish this version? Thanks a lot1

I just replace the statusbar-background.9.png with a transparent one with morph ，very easy to do。

solved. thanks kevin

I've been trying to fix this as well, I change the status bar background9.png to transparent, then I save it, as well as saving it under draw9patch, and I still can't get rid of this damn line, even with metamorph, any other thoughts, please help

Does it work like the CM7 toggles? In the market page says it puts shortcuts, not toggles

Thanks for the tip, but.. bar control force closes on the 4G. I guess we have to wait for a custom ROM as all the other bar notification programs do not toggle 4G and some won't toggle wifi either.

Try and choose a different shortcut path , I am on the NS4G and it works. scroll through all of the avail. paths and get there a different way. Mine FC also initially

Thanks, what path did you use for 4G toggle?

This is only a little workaround until we get the true notification toggles. This is not a toggle -- it's just a shortcut to the 4G settings screen. But still way easier.
When you load bar control, I'm pretty sure you choose that first 4G icon (with no icon). Selecting that puts it in your notification bar (second screen shot). Then, selecting it from your notification bar should bring you to the 3rd screen shot.
I'm still workin on a theme there.. so colors a little funky

Almost there.

Notification toggle in the market is almost perfect except when you press the toggle it brings up a pop-up to confirm the action. Other than that it great and customizable.

Patiently wait

Status bar

Hello to all. I wanted to know where is this status bar (clock, battery, signal, etc.). Thanks

do you mean where to get it

Hello. I don't know where any of that stuff is, but you don't want to look for the "status bar". You want to look for icons.
As far as the clock, I'm sure that's just a color change.
So you should search in the theme thread for icons to flash. This means you must be rooted. Justin Case you didn't know. LoL!!
