I'm trying to change my battery icons, I've copied the .png's and the battery_charge_fill.xml, the stat_sys_battery_charge.xml and the stat_sys_battery.xml files, however, the icons aren't showing up on the status bar. I'm not getting any FCs, I just can't see the icons. What am I doing wrong?
Also I have pulled the .png's from a JK2 Vibrant ROM but I'm currently on a JK3 Vibrant ROM build if that helps at all. Thanks!
Found the problem... MODS please close...

Download any theme with a black notification bar made for Enoms TheOfficial ROM. Extract this, and in framework, extract android.policy.jar, framework-res.apk, and services.jar. Create three folders on your desktop, android.policy, framework-res, and services. In framework-res, create a folder called res, and in res, create a folder called layout.
From the theme, take the file framework/android.policy/classes.dex and place it in your folder android.policy.
From the theme, take the file framework/framework-res/layout/status_bar.xml and place it in your folder framework-res/res/layout.
From the theme, take the file framework/services/classes.dex and place it in your folder services.
Download my attached res.zip, and extract. There will be two folders, drawable and drawable-land. Move these folders to your folder framework/res (Note, do not place in layout, you should now have 3 folders in framework/res).
Open a blank txt file and copy the following:
Code:
Enomther's TheOfficial ASOP 1.6
2.4.2
framework-res.apk
/system/framework/
services.jar
/system/framework/
android.policy.jar
/system/framework/
Save this as Black_Bar_Enom.thm. Create a zip from the folders android.policy, framework-res, services, and the file Black_Bar_Enom.thm. Name this zip Black_Bar_Enom.zip (NOTE: IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THE SAME NAME FOR THE THM FILE AND THE ZIP, THEN METAMORPH WILL NOT WORK)
Download metamorph and the eclair theme by djengizz. Place the eclair theme and Black_Bar_Enom.zip in the folder /sdcard/AndroidThemes. From here, metamorph will do the rest, just be sure to apply the eclair theme before you apply the Black_Bar_Enom.zip morph.
I forgot to add, you now have your first metamorph to post. I am sure many users of Enoms ROM would appreciate it.
Thanks i will try this

That is weird, there must be something in enoms source that I do not understand. Boot to recovery and flash your current ROM to do away with the bootloop.
Enom is very good about responding. You should either ask him what is wrong with my instructions, or ask him to port my black bar mod.
cool thanks tho

You need to verify which drawable folder your phone uses.. there is drawable-HDPI and MDPI for high/low res phones.. if the icons were for HDPI and your phone is MDPI, mm will think it's applying but nothing will happen...

Man I'm on the same boat as you guys. I tried doing a new theme with metamorph but no luck. Then tried to get a new clock and nothing either. Having metamorph work save us so much wasted time. Rebooting to recovery, wiping data, etc. Flashing again. A bit of info would be much appreciated.

Do this, go get the app ninja morph by stericson.. open it and run checks, then choose "new project" and hit system, then framework, then framework-res.apk... it'll extract like 1200 files, when it's finished, hit res... in there will be some drawable folders... see if you have drawable, drawable-hdpi, drawable-mdpi, drawable-Idpi... post back in here which ones you have and that will help us to know what else to do...
I've had a look through the forums but couldn't see this posted anywhere so here goes, and apologies if this is a repeat or is in the wrong forum.. In CM7 GingerBread you can change the battery icons in the status bar using the UOT kitchen and the framework-res file. The other icons however can't be changed using this method (like they could in CM6.1 FroYo) because the other icons are in a different system file in GingerBread.
Through a lot of digging around i have found the file 'SystemUI.apk' in /system/app/ where most of the other icons are. Also in this apk are the 'battery_low_battery.png', the 'shade_bg.png' and the 'status_bar_close_on.9.png' files which can be changed to files from another Rom after any nesessary re-naming.
The battery_low_battery.png controls the pop-up displayed when the battery gets below 15% and i've changed mine to one from an earlier Rom.
The shade_bg.png is the notification window and can be changed for the one from the SuperGinger Rom for example which has an Android picture on the bottom right (and looks cool i think). There is a transparency effect to the window which may be controlled by a .xml file, i'm not sure because i'm using the SuperGinger Rom which had it as a default.
The status_bar_close_on.9 is the notification window pull-down bar and i've changed mine for the 'status_bar_close_on_cust.9.png' from the cm6.1 Rom which has a CM logo in the centre.
All these image files and loads more like signal strength, bluetooth, wi-fi, flight mode etc, etc can be found in res/drawable-mdpi/ of SystemUI.apk.
The .apk can be modified using Android Design Editor V2 (credits to it's creator) (Google search...) and be pushed back from recovery using a flashable zip or ADB (i can vouch for a flashable zip created with Update-Zip-Packager.. credits to it's creator) (again Google search...)
I hope all this will be of use to some and thanks and credits to the Rom creators, cooks and devs, to XDA Developers and all the other contributors on here.
Peace and happy tinkering.
HTC Legend.
Thanks for that info I wasn't sure which file is the notification window bg in CM7, now I know.
I tried to create my own theme using UOT. I even uploaded the framework.apk and SystemUI.apk (from the Zeus v3n ROM) to the kitchen. However my cooked theme did not work as intended. It flashed all right. Fonts working (by reverting to default in system settings). Icons in menus working. But the notification bar (doesn't show up at all) and lockscreen weren't working as planned. Any ideas?

Well I tried tweaking it one mod at a time and checking where the problem lies exactly. It seems that anything to do with the status bar + notifications, messes the cooked theme.
I saw that patch by achyut for the Echelon theme. I'm thinking of tweaking some settings from here and there, but I have no idea what i'm looking for.
Hi,
i already took a look in other threads and tried everything but i couldnt find a solution.
I want to have a half transparent statusbar on my i9001 with the brood rom. I changed some xmls and pngs in systemui, framework-res, twframework-res and touchwiz but nothing helped.
Could someone help me to find the right files to change?
Thanks
E: I mean the bar at the top not the notification bar.
E2: Used this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1053019
Changing the png worked but only on the lockscreen. Also edited the xml but nothing changed.

Also doesnt work.
i'm not sure what u're exactly trying to do, but have u tried the online UOT kitchen http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/ , there are options for status bar transparency etc...
