I've been really doing my best to make my phone look like straight Gingerbread, but the one thing I've noticed is that the clock in the notification bar doesn't show AM or PM. Is there any way to remove it? Thanks guys!
EDIT: I found a hack done on the Fascinate by modifying services.jar to do it, but I'm not sure what I need to change in the .dex to get rid of it...

Is there any transparent notification bar metamorphs out there?
I think this might be what you are looking for: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768628
If you only want the status bar and not the font and apps and what not, just run the framework-res part. Let me know if you need help. Enjoy.
I did see that but couldnt tell if the notification bar was transparent or not.
Thank you
Yeah i flashed it and its nice and looks great, But i still want something with a completely transparent bar.
Tried that the first run, and it looked great when using LP+ and having the status bar hidden. When you would hit the notification button, it would pop down and you would only see the icons/letters/numbers etc, but otherwise it just shows up as a blank-black area. Something to do with that space is allotted
for the status bar and you don't really get it back, just because it's transparent. There might be a way around it, but not really sure yet. If you wanna try it, this was the first run of Transparent Chaos:

Yeah I've been looking for the same thing for a few weeks. They can't do it on the eris yet though because of something with rosie and it not taking the background all the way up to the top so it would always look black anyway.

I think it's LP+ that doesn't allow the transparency because it just shows black behind the bar. I've heard that it works with ADW Launcher because of an option it has, I haven't tried it though because I prefer LP.
I'm pretty sure that's not it. I just tried it, and got the same results as LP+.
Hi
Does anyone know the location of the StatusBarPolicy.smali file within Gingerbread 2.3.2?
I'm trying to hide the Clock from the Status Bar, In Froyo this used to be done by editing the Services.jar file but that doesn't appear to be the case anymore.
If anyone could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it.
Thanks
so, im new to theming... and im working toward getting a black status bar... i have pulled 'framework-res.apk' from my phone and modified 'status_bar_background.png' to black and replaced it in the apk... is there anything else that i need to do, or can i safely push it back to my phone and test it? all i want to do change is the status bar color from that icky blue to black... not change the color of the clock/text, etc... just want to be positive i can go forward, thanks
i figured the general section would be best, since i dont have a working black status bar yet to share with everyone... my apologies if it should have been posted in themes instead
EDIT 1: for the record, i am running the stock deodexed 890 from rootzwiki... i tried it, and it booted fine, but the only black in the status bar is the notifications area in the drop down... going to continue on my quest to get a fully black status bar lol... will continue to post edits of my advancements as i make them
Does someone know of a way to remove the status bar toggles? Is there a file to modify in systemUI.apk or framework-res.apk?
yes there is a way unfortunate im not that skilled
I'm listening... I'd love to get rid of the mobile data toggle. The others are useful, that one isn't.
I hope there is someone out there knowing the answer as I like to use my own toggles app and having two of them doesn't look goog at all.
Also I saw this screenshot showing a blue clock in the expanded notification bar and would like to know what to modify to change the color of the clock and the date? (this came from a Mod which included the toggles, I would only need the file and passage to edit for changing the color)
Any help is appreciated.
Hi guys, if you're seldom confused about whether it's night or morning, you might like this mod! It removes the AM/PM text from the statusbar clock when it's in 12-hour format. 24-hour clock folks obviously have no AM/PM indicator anyway, so you need not mess with this.
This mod alters framework-res.apk, which means it conflicts with burningmembers' small navbar mod. I really like the small navbar, so I've packed up a few different versions of this clock mod.
StatusBarClockNo-AM-PM.zip doesn't mess with the size of the nav bar, just removes the AM/PM text.
StatusBarClockNo-AM-PM-med-navbar_v0.2.zip comes with the medium sized navbar.
StatusBarClockNo-AM-PM-tiny-navbar.zip comes with the tiny navbar.
To revert, you can use the revert zip in burningmembers' thread.

Technical details:
For interested devs, this was a pretty simple one. The statusbar clock uses the value of the "twelve_hour_time_format" string resource in framework-res as the format string for a SimpleDateFormat. The default is "h:mm a". I just did a global search and replace to change all instances of "h:mm a" to "h:mm" (without the quotes). You have to do a global replace (i.e., "Replace all in files" in notepad++), so that you get all the various localizations. After recompiling, be sure to copy over the AndroidManifest.xml and META-INF from the original apk into the modified apk, or you'll get boot loops.

Aw man, I must have done something wrong when packaging it... I'll see if I can figure it out real quick and fix it.

Sorry about that. I fixed it and edited the OP to link to it. Got lost in the shuffle, I guess.
There we go! Excellent work
can you help with modding the status bar to look like AOSP? I've got the decompiling/recompiling thing down, but not sure what xmls to edit or how.
Thanks!
Edit: I didn't read your complete post....
Great mod. I am on clean rom and not trying to do too much in the way of mods. This is a good one. That status bar is way to cluttered. Just flashed and it worked fine. Thanks!! :good:
Nice. I just moved the clock to the right on mine so the AM/PM appears off screen. This is probably better.
Of course if you put your clock in military time (24 hour) , there is no AM/PM .
Simple and all I wanted, but anyway to get rid of that pesky e911/location icon? Not sure anybody wants that there!
Any chance this works on D801

I have Verizon G2. rooted... The hide am/pm with Tiny nav bar zip is not working.Trying with CWM and it gets an error that it can't install. please Don't tell me the that hide am/pm with Tiny Zip is only for TWRP? But the hide am/pm with no nav bar edit is only for both? that would suck.....Because If i do the hide am/pm with no nav bar edit zip in CWM, that works.. Please help. I need this combo to work.
