I'm trying to get my status bar transparent. I've tried using Ninja Morph and Metamorph. Using Ninja Morph nothing happens. When I use Metamorph I get a ton of FCs and then I reboot. Once I reboot the status bar is black. Can anyone help me out? Thanks

Rummy method does work but only with certain launchers, eclipse default launcher work with transparent status bar but every other launcher doesn't
So I used UOT Kitchen to try and get the transparent Status/Notification bar. After I install the zip my notification bar becomes transparent however the status bar is white. I've tried using live wallpapers for Go Launcher and ADW. I've also checked the ADW wallpaper hack and I still get the white status bar. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

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+.

Hey there!
sorry for activating up that old thread, but i'm trying to get my statusbar transparent at the momen.
I think al almost did it, there's just one strange "bug".
I changed all the *.png relatet to the status bar with transparent pictures, that does work for now i think,
BUT:
If my Screen is locked, i can see the background picture behind the status bar, if screen is unlocked, background picture is "cut" under the statusbar, statusbar is just black, if i drag down the bar, i can see that the dragdown menu is "sliding" between the statusbar and that strange black background....
any suggestions or tips?

If you have it working that far i cen tell you how to see it on regular screen too. You need to be running ADW.launcher (or launcher pro but i have no idea how to enable it)
In ADW launcher there is a setting for Wallpaper hack , in system settings i believe. Turn that off and you should see the wallpaper through the statusbar.
thanks for the reply, would be nice to know how it works with launcher pro, that's my prefered launcher...
will test it in ADW now.
I guess there could be some similar trick to Launcher Pro.
ADW is working fine, looks cool, unfotunately i can't attach files here, if i could, i would share my framework-res.apk with everyone here
I did already build 3 framework-res.apk file, theyre similar to each other, no big changes done, just other style of the status bar and changed battery Icons, sothat normal battery icon is black/white, only the orange an red batteryicons are colored.
Launcher Pro doesn't work, there's no way to use it without the wallpaper hack...
at the moment I'm trying to build my own custom Rom, but have to read more about that before i can realy build one...
I want to hide the notification bar in the lockscreen... im using launcher pro with the bar hidden and it looks very nice to me. Im also thinking of buying widgetlocker so i can use the same widgets on the lockscreen but need to get rid of the notification bar. Is this possible. Also im using cm rc3

any ideas????
Does anyone happen to know if there is a metamorph morph with coloured notification icons for all of the stock apps? Preferably for CM6. I themed my notification bar to be black but now the SMS icon and several others are a bit hard to see.

Hey all,
I'm trying to use the status bar from one miui theme in a different theme, but when i put the status bar png into the new theme, it doesn't work and it "breaks" the theme. Also, changing the status bar icons seem to "break" the theme as well. I'm using a miui dark theme and when I change the status bar or icons, the status bar becomes white and completely unreadable. anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening?
thanks for your help
wow..no help at all?
Just sinply put both on ur phones theme. And choose theme. And edit ur theme and change only status bar to the other theme

Thanks for your reply, I should mention that the status bar and icons that I want to use are from a CM7 theme, so i would have to put the pngs from the CM7 theme into the miui theme.

You have to make sure that they're named correctly. If you aren't renaming when you replace, this could be the issue. The pngs may also need to be resized.
If you want to pm me the files, I can take a look at it & either tell you what you need to do or fix it. If you post in the thread I may not see it, but Tapatalk will tell me that I have a message, so pm me if you want my help.
