Is there a way to change Vegan 5.1's status bar? - G Tablet Themes and Apps

Does anyone know if there is a way to change/theme the appearance of the status bar in Vegan 5.1?
Using one of the launcher apps (LauncherPro, ADW) I can change lots of the UI's appearance, but I haven't found a way try different icons and colors in the status bar.
Is it possible?
Thanks to the devs for all of their excellent work!

check these guys here... So far, Awsome work!

Thanks it2steve! So if I am reading this correctly, there is not currently a (simple) way to swap icons without creating a new custom ROM using their status bar icons, correct?
That is, I don't see instructions for applying them.
Excellent work though!

There is a patch to change every thing to android green. Sorry but I don't rember what post I downloaded the patch from. Maybe someone else might remember and can share.

Wow thanks everyone! I realized that my original post violated the "tinkerers' creedo" which is: "there is ALWAYS a way!"

What about moving the icons?
Hi,
Is there a way to re-arrange the icons on the status bar?
I love having the back/menu/home buttons up there but, for me, they would work much better if they were all on the left.
I've been poking around in framework-res.apk but so far I can't find the config for this.
Thanks,
~ray
PS: I'm new to vegan and the gtab but not to android or linux (and I'm also an SE). So I expect I can figure this out with a little nudge in the right direction.

Install button savior from the market and you can place another set of onscreen buttons on either the left or right side of your screen and adjust the height

Thanks. That looks interesting but, at the moment, I'd rather change the status bar icons, if possible.

Agreed - I have Button Saviour for now but it's not ideal...
I'd much prefer to have the icons moved to the left side of the notification bar as it is in TnT Lite...
Perhaps now that Vegan build has access to VS source (for TnT config) and the collaboration with CyanogenMod 7 source, we'll see more tweaks in the next Beta (RC?)

is this taskbar possible? help!!!

i'm stuck.
been googling for an hour with no answers. i'm completely clueless as to how acer ui was able to come up with this bottom bar, esp the glow they use to outline the icons.
help MUCH appreciated.
It disables the default bottom bar and uses it's own instead, so you can't get it in other apps.
do you know “无限今日”?
Yeah, the top bar is still normal, just the bottom bar gets replaced. Or what do you mean ?
ya livven that's what i mean. would be really cool if we can have a bottom bar like that...glowing icons, black to transparent background...mmm
cache520 i've not used infinitetoday before but gather that it only works for the today home screen, but correct me if i'm wrong.
Not possible to get it as the default bottom bar, unfortunately. If you have WM 6.5.1/6.5.3, you can search for a GreeNeon theme, it also has toolbar buttons with a glow.

[WIP] White Notification Bar

Hello everyone, I am hoping some more developers will try to help out and keep this project alive. Hoping these issues might be figured out by someone.
Issues:
3G and 1X dormant icons are default HTC as well as USB
White clock text
Clear button is dark with black text
Some things worth noting. The stat_sys_data_usb.png icon and the stat_notify_sync_error.png icon are already in /system/framework/framework-res.apk but the weird problem is for some reason these icons are not showing up correctly, and instead they default to HTC. Other icons in framework-res and com.htc.resources are not doing this.
I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR ANY OF THE WORK THAT HAS BEEN DONE SO FAR.

There is a TON of info on editing task bars and other theme elements in the cdma hero section mater of fact a good deal of their stuff works with various eris roms. Some of the roms running over there are legend or eris based now we have ports based off the Sprint roms so theyre themes and various add ons working also (ive tried a few) as far as text and icons I believe it has to do with the .9pngs etc...give it a read and there are a ton of helpful heroc fellas. chubz, vince just to name a few.
Yeah I've been waiting for someone to come up with a fix for the clock font color, but it seems to be fairly difficult to find? Or perhaps other things are being worked on by the limited amount of devs we've got on the Eris.
you forgot me the guy who was trying to finish it, and posted it for all!:d

I'm a super noob at this, but I spent part of the day yesterday trying to fix my title bar with the icons I wanted in the Aloysis ROM. It seemed like the text color and icon image files were referenced by xml files? Have you tried looking there for fixes to your issues?
For the record there is a hero theme the Aloysis 4.1 ROM is based off of which may be configured close to what u want. I wanted to configure mine to look more like yours but I got frustrated and gave up.

[MOD](UPDATE 9/3/11) Quick Settings for Official GB OTA (4.06.605.2)

UPDATE 9/3/11 - I have all the extras discussed added and the layout straight (I hope). There is now just a single zip attached that should be good to go. I would rather not add more functions at this time, as there are other projects I need to finish (ROMs, Power Widgets, 6-bar signal, etc., etc...)
Hi all. In the process of creating my upcoming Magnolia ROM for the Incredible based on the new official GB update, I managed to activate the quick settings tab in the notifications pull down bar. I haven't seen this anywhere else, so I thought I'd share with everyone so we can get more ROMs cooking off the official GB update.
This is just the stock SystemUI.apk with the quick settings tab activated (including the standard "extras" like brightness and media volume) and the GPS reticle hidden. No other changes have been made. Devs feel free to grab this and mod as you wish.
Just copy the zip file to your sdcard and flash as usual. As always, please backup first, and you flash this mod entirely at your own risk. If you want things rearranged or functions added, etc., please feel free to ask your favorite dev. I need to move onto some other stuff.....
Steve
Thanks Steve!! I spent most of yesterday trying to activate them with no luck. I can't wait to see what I was missing. Great work!!
Edit: I also confirm that after flashing your zip, they're working perfectly.
Like a boss! That's awesome man, very impressive. Without having to dig through the entire apk could you let us know which xml you had to edit or how you managed to achieve this? It was so elusive for me lol.
Hey, now we've got a chance to get everybody back on Sense 1.0 roms.
I can confirm the zip works, also. Great job!

It's the tabbed style pulldown like in Sense 2.1/3.0. Not the CM style toggles at the top of the status bar.
Nice find, wonder eBay else HTC left buried in code for devs to find.

Pull down the notification bar and touch the "quick settings" tab on the bottom right.
Edit: Jermaine beat me to the answer
I'm on McSenseless and when I pull the notification bar down there no tabs at the bottom? Hmmm
Is this because sense UI has been deleted and replaced with LauncherPro?

Yeah I might have to do some trickery to get it to work without rosie so we will see, stay tuned. But it will definitely be in my McSense rom.
Excellent, thanks sk806!
Anybody know how to add more of the settings that appear in the 2.1/3.0 roms?

You need to wipe dalvik-cache for them to work. I tested it on my rom, without rosie and it works fine.

Worked great on my custom gingersense Rom. Thanks
Can anyone tell me how to add a few quicksettings like silent, vibrate and the such, or is this something a dev needs to do? I will be going to McSense as soon as these are implemented.
Worked great, I just used UOT on the file, mixed it up with Liberation 2.0 Beta 5, a new set of battery icons, and green overscroll. Now I just need one with Brightness, Rotation Lock, and screen timeout!
Thanks for the hard work, very appreciated!
Cheers

Just flashed the quick settings and they work flawlessly. Thanks a ton!! This rooted OTA is getting better and better daily.

[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....

In the past it was possible by editing some of the framework files to remove the icons completely from the library. Finding them can be somewhat time consuming. I'll look into it ... I've promised I'd look into a couple things and just haven't had time yet, busy time of year at work and the desire to get outside before the true summer heat hits has been strong ... but I will get there.
this thread shows you how to get rid of the NFC icon. I'd guess that others can be removed in the same manner

I'm not sure if there are options for the other icons in the CSC file. On other galaxy devices you needed to literally edit the framework files because the icons were hard-coded in there.
Great find though, CSC tweaks are always helpful and everyone should be able to do them.

How about hiding the whole status bar? Lol. so you don't see it unless you swipe down. you might need another launcher. Don't know if with touch wiz you can do that.

Touchwiz launcher won't do that but you can do that with a third-party launcher like Nova for example. Another third-party launcher I really like is action launcher 3.
Nova launcher can hide the notification bar. its a great launcher
