Um... I think it's possible when creating a ROM...
But I'm guessing it's one of the CODING that developers didn't found out yet...
And yes... it would be cool to change text; something like MY NAME! ^^
Sorry, that I didn't help u much

There's a way to hide the AT&T and input your own text. But I haven't found to change the AT&T text.

thanks for your reply. i like the green fill for the icons but what i was saying is that the backround on the start bar is all grainy and very dark green... this is the HTC black theme for the today screen...
to a):
just go to settings---> today--->and get urself a wallpaper(not the wallpaper for the TF3D!), whole black one~
what colour should that be? although it's saved as a black file, it's coming out grey on the start bar?

Question on howto improve Android homescreen text

Hi guys,
Does anyone know if it's possible to some how change the text on the home screens?
For example, instead of the text with the ugly black round border thing around it, would it be possible to say have the text with a drop shadow instead?
Also a way to change the font too
curious
did you find anything? I just thought of the same, wat if ...
That gray text background thing annoys me as wel.
How about extreme (oposite) contrast like with the (optional) windows mouse pointer so that if, for instance the background is black the text will be white and vice versa.
please let me know if you've found something. I'd hate to just open a thread for nothing
there might be some reg edits or tweaks, ill look around and let u know!
Did you find something yet ?

i need help with this i think they best you can do it would be make the header box smaller but you have to becareful not to make it to small since the clean notification button is in there people say its requires a total re write to remove the header but im sure u can make the height 0 and then maybe move the clear button to the notification tool bar but this is over my head
but the simplest way would be make the clear button smaller and then make the height of the header box the same exact size and then just make the carrier transparency 0 its what ive been working on but wont be able to try again until next weekend so it would be nice if some1 jumped in. If needed i can give the location and file names that need to be changed just PM me

[Q] Overlapping text and icons in status bar solutions?

Hey guys. So one problem I've been trying to find a solution for is I like allot of information in my status bar but I have so much in it I keep running into the issue of the text and icons overlapping. For example when I use Wanams setting to center the clock allot of things overlap or when I try to add more and nothings overlapping it whatever is on the right side just runs off the screen. Is there a way to create maybe a marquee style where I could add as much I wanted and just have anything that runs off the screen in the status bar constantly scroll across? Currently running Firekat v6.
First possible solution listed here by another member, didn't work though, fishing for more ideas...

Bro I thing your font just sux... change the font or the size of it. See attachment.
Yeah man I know it is a little on the bold side but I kinda like it, other than changing the font I'm thinking there's gotta be another way because no matter what the font someone could have too much up there and be facing the same situation....

Help customize my Lockscreen

Hey Guys,
can anyone help me to get rid of the clock on the lockscreen? I don't want a big ass clock there!!! just a regular clock on the statusbar would be good enough. I just wanna have the Lockscreen to my wallaper.
For any help/advice/tips on how to achieve this I would be very grateful. I hope I don't have to decomplie systemui or anything.... maybe thru the new themes function? I saw they can change the font color and so on... maybe setting it to 100% transparency?
with help of a xposed module called Costum Text I was able to get rid of the text at the bottom saying something like swipe to unlock! U know my s6 is set to german and in german the swipe to unlock text is like 2 full sentences!!! Who needs that? like WTF? as if someone after using his phone for 5 minutes hasn't already figured out how to unlock his phone!!! am i the only one who thinks that about the text @ the bottom?

Haha, luckily for you. I created a small app using tasker to disable the wallpaper and clock and enable it if like. but you need root.
Just unzip the file and install the apk within.
EDIT: Please explain more on how to use custom text to disable " swipe screen to unlock "?

So u just install costum text and choose the app u want to change the text for in this case it's systemui. There u will be presented with bubbles where u can put in the original text that u want to change. Fox example u put in Swipe screen to unlock it has to be 1:1 like Swipe not swipe. And then u just put a blank space in the new text field if u want it to disappear, otherwise u can also put anything u want. Everything to take effect u click on the three dots in the right top corner and select Relaunch App and that's it! I also got rid of plug in text.....

I've read before that phone is there by law, but I hoped it was not for the international.
Thanks for the "ex-camera" link anyway. It is a start and I'll give it a try first thing tommorow.

Wow so glad I opened this thread! So the only thing that's left is the Phone Icon but i think that can be solved by setting the transparency to 100% of that Icon which should be in systemui or the systemui theme apk... I will have a look at this in few days I need access to a windows machine and I hope samsung uses .png's and not this qmg shiz.... the shortcut will be still intact but at least not visible which is still good enough for me.

Hahaha, very good idea. I hope you succeed because i use themes on my phone. And previously lollipop v5.0.2 I was able to take out the qmg from the theme\lock-1\base.apk and convert to png, make it transparent and put back the png into the apk without decompiling. That work, camera and ecall was transparent. Now if i try it with the new themes on lollipop 5.1.1 the apk fails toe work and the default theme is loaded.
So yes, if you can change the systemui for lock screen then it would be superb..:good:
But i am glad to help.
