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.

Yes, you could do any color.
Also, I've made quite the progress, this is where I am now. All I have left is the "Clear" button.

Awesome! Can we get an upload? And please tell me how you got the clock. Was it something in the services.jar/involve the odex file included or something more simple?

DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for anything adverse that might happen to your phone as a result of using my files. This is a very low risk operation, but you still perform this at your own risk.
CREDITS:
zach.xtr for his awesome xtrROM
.mak for the Espresso lock screen PNGs pulled from zenEXP
Android SDK (source of vanilla PNG files)
*All PNGs were optimized after pulling them from source*
This guide will give an even more vanilla look to xtrROM for those who like the orange highlights and white notification bar. Additionally, I have included the Espresso lockscreen (refer to screenshot) in a modified com.htc.resources.apk file. The lockscreen will still remain transparent, I just chose to use a wallpaper, so the screenshot doesn't show the transparent one. Most everything will have the highlights changed to the stock orange color, save a few things in the HTC-specific apps.
Before you do anything, make a NAND backup and/or make a backup of the files being pushed in this tutorial before pushing the ones I have provided. I have not tested this on another phone, as I only have the one that I performed this mod on, but I can't think of a reason it shouldn't work on another phone.
This was performed with xtrROM v 4.5.2. This may not work on previous versions.
Perform the following steps using ADB:
1. Push framework-res.apk, services.jar, and com.htc.resources.apk as follows:
Code:
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb push services.jar /system/framework/services.jar
adb push com.htc.resources.apk /system/framework/com.htc.resources.apk
NOTE: You *MUST* push the services.jar file if you want the clock to appear black on the white notification bar. Otherwise, it will remain white against a white background. Not very appealing, imo.
2. Your phone will soft reboot - this is normal. If you want, you can just force a hard reboot with:
Code:
adb reboot
YOUR PHONE MAY TAKE A LONG TIME TO BOOT. THIS IS NORMAL. If it takes an exorbitant amount of time (say 7 - 10 mins.), then it's probably safe to call it a failure. As long as your boot animation hasn't restarted or frozen, don't give up hope.
As pointed out by adrenalinerush12 and jadesdan, you must push com.htc.resources.apk if you want all the notification bar icons to appear white, since the stock HTC file overrides them in framework-res.apk. This means you will also get the Espresso lock screen (which, in my personal opinion, is the best-looking lock screen), but if somebody REALLY likes the boring grey "boomerang" bar, I suppose I can cook one up. Let me know.
com.htc.resources.apk Download:
HTML:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=IYU0T72P
framework-res.apk Download: Link down - file uploaded to this thread below.
services.jar Download: Link down - file uploaded to this thread below. VERY IMPORTANT: the file is named services.zip at the bottom because XDA doesn't let me upload .jar files , SO make sure to rename it to "services.jar" BEFORE you push the file to your phone.
The reason why I installed 2.1 is so I can have Sense with a black notification bar. Oh well, some people might actually like this. Nice work!
This looks awsome! I love the XTR roms but couldn't stand the black bar.....
The framework and services.jar links are down
EDIT: I should have read the word "temporarily" a little closer.
Freakin SWEET! I love the speed of xtrROM, just didn't like the green highlights and black notification bar. This is perfect for me. Thanks a bunch.

Yeah, you're right, they are down. Damn you, Megaupload!!! I think those two files might be under the XDA 8 MB limit...I'll try and upload them directly.
EDIT: OK, framework-res.apk and services.jar (as services.zip) are uploaded directly to XDA for your downloading pleasure. I don't know what Megaupload's problem is right now. Make sure to rename "services.zip" to "services.jar" - I made a little note of it near the bottom of my OP.
That's odd, because it wasn't down for me. It let me download them just a few minutes ago.

Yeah, I don't know why Megaupload does that. I've had it happen a few times before, and it's never consistent. Anyway, let me know how it works out for you. I haven't officially heard whether it has worked for anybody, so I'm excited to hear back!
Okay, when I pushed both framework-res.apk and services.jar, this is what I get:
Don't know what the issue is, but I pushed it twice to make sure. Still does the same thing.
I've tried both with the MegaUpload files and also the ones linked here, but this is what I get. I've even tried wiping Dalvik and all, but this is the best I can do. You can tell that it's taking, but I think there might be some icons missing.

Hmmm, actually now I remember that some of the PNGs in framework-res.apk are overridden in the com.htc.resources.apk. I didn't think it was so many, though. Try pushing the com.htc.resources.apk, too. If you don't want the espresso lock screen, I can always change it for you later, but I just want to see if that fixes the notification bar icons.
Yup. That fixed it! I actually deleted HtcLockScreen.apk because I like the stock horizontal slide one anyways. Thanks a bunch man.

No problem, but it seems that the notification bar clear button is black.. and so is the text, which makes it difficult to read. Not a huge deal, but. And icons such as a new text message with the stock app are still messed up looking. (With black as the background).

Download and push the new services.jar (services.zip at the bottom of the thread) to fix the black "clear" button. I actually just fixed that last night - took a lot of fishing around to find out how to do it. I know the stock htc apps still have their original look in the noti bar - I didn't want to take the time to change them. Haha, maybe in the future.
Oh, and when my 3G icon changes to 1X to send a text, it goes back to the black icon. Then changes right back to the right 3G one.
i am trying to apply this to xtrSENSE. i've got the white bar working, but the services.jar part is doing nothing. do i have to extract anything or just simply rename it? i have renamed it, but it says not found or something to that effect. i do understand that this may not work due to the fact that this is slightly different than xtrROM with rosie and whatnot.

Cool, so framework-res.apk pushed successfully. You shouldn't extract anything from services.zip, just rename it to services.jar and push it. There are modifications to the smali code in services.jar, rather than just swapping out PNGs, so it's somewhat likely that it won't work. It's very picky - one thing out of place, and it doesn't boot. I've learned that the hard way.
May I ask what you are using for the Sense like clock/weather and the icons? They are pretty cool.

For sure. The clock/weather widget is called "Fancy Widget". It's no longer on the market because the developers received a cease and desist order from HTC (can't imagine why ). Anyway, just google "fancy widget 1.3.0", and I guarantee you'll find it. I wouldn't have a problem uploading it, but some people might take issue since it's now a black market item. Whatev.
By the icons, do you mean the widgets that I have under the weather/clock widget? Those are all by curvefish and free in the market. Just search "curvefish". And if you're referring to the smiley face messaging icon I have, it's because I found a modified vanilla mms apk on a forum (can't stand HTC's slow as hell excuse for a text messaging program). Since that's open source, I've attached it to the post if you want it. Just be sure to delete HTC's mms, or you'll get some weird behavior.

Great, thank you for the information. I have heard of Fancy Widgets, just never used it. I have purchased Beautiful Widgets and used it a little bit. I have searched for a theme that resembles the Sense one but have not found it yet.
I am currently using xtrSENSE so I have the Sense UI. Once Zach updates xtrROM I am going to install that and go back to launcher pro and beautiful widgets for my homescreen.
I updated to the Froyo leak yesterday and I am loving it so far. I ported over my theme, but I don't know how to remove the status bar clock in the corner. I had it removed on DJ05, but I don't know how to port that mod over. Can someone help me?

Hey is there a flashable zip file that will bring the status bar clock BACK? A lot of the ROMs and Themes have these off and i know some of the themes have versions to flash with or without the clock. But if i flash a theme with a clock but then want a different theme without the option to choose and it doesnt have a clock, it won't stick right?
So is there a way to keep everything i have and just get the clock back?

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.

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.

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?

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!

Just flashed the quick settings and they work flawlessly. Thanks a ton!! This rooted OTA is getting better and better daily.
Has anyone figured out how to change the clock color in the notification bar yet? UOT doesn't work for this, so we'll have to manually change it in services.jar
I'm think its in systemui if you decompile it you should find it in drawables not 100% sure though.

I'm pretty sure you have to edit XMLs in the SystemUI to change any kind of text color.

That's pretty much what I do. I started to learn to edit .jar and .xml files when I had my X but then other people released themes with the files I needed and I just kanged them instead. Now there is no base that I can find for liberty with the edits I need so I'm trying to learn it myself which will serve me better in the long run. If anyone knows a good noob friendly tutorial I'd love a link, all the ones I've found are a little over my head.
