Does anyone know an easy way to make a transparent status bar for cm7 theme chooser? I've tried several times in uot kitchen with an apk from theme chooser and it never works right!! Any help would be much appreciated!! Thanks in advance

Easiest way would be to open up the status bar image in Photoshop or GIMP and turn the transparency to 100% (visibility 0%).
Cheers.

being you know how to properly compile and compile and resign the apk. haha
just for future refrence. i will let you all in on a secret. if you want to edit cm7 themes or framework res apks.
if you install the program winrar. and extract the image you want to edit. so long as it isnt a .9.png. you can simply edit the image and drag it back into the still opened folder in winrar and you wont have to recompile. if you want a tutorial vid i can make one.

If it's a transparent image, .9.png extensions don't matter though.

A video would be awesome!! Cause I definitely don't know how to do all that. I'm using Sonny skohans ics theme for cm7 and love it but would really like if I could get a transparent or semi transparent status bar. I've been googling tried uot kitchen and reading up on patches but nothing seems to work. Many many thanks

Ok so just tried the winrar attempt and from what I'm seeing the status bar background is .9 png. I could be wrong but that's what I'm seeing. Guess I'll research a little more and see what I can figure out. Thanks for the help guys

yeah i have never seen anyone make the status bar transparent. i have seen the notification background transparent but never the bar itself.. but either way if your gonna add transparency or all one color then it doesnt matter. all .9 does is tell android how to stretch an image and where text is allowed on it. u can still edit it and paste it back in

I can try making one, if you'd like.
Sent from my LG Thrill 4G
That would be awesome!! I was gonna try messing around tonight at work since I don't have a computer at my house at the moment......I'm probably still gonna try really don't know exactly what I'm doing but I'll never learn I'd I don't try. But if you would like to you could try. I can give you the system.apk and framework.apk just let me know I'm on a cm7 nightly though not sure if that makes a difference or not.
Sent from my LG-P925 using XDA App
You're on the current CM nightly everyday right?
That would be a problem.
As the .png that I would change would get overwritten on each update.
Yeah I want sure about that....kinda thought that would be an issue. Well for now I'll just keep it a it is and when a stable build comes out then I'll mess around with learning some themeing. If I have any issues or questions do you mind if I pm you? I'll read and look up things before bothering you haha

you don't need to zip it.. just pull the framework-res.apk twframework-res.apk (something like that i know its twframework something.apk) then just push it to your phone via adb

So those two APKs are all that we need?
im not responsibile for your actions, if you brick your ish its your fault.. Im simply trying to help out those that want the aosp theme.... So with that being said **try at your own risk**
im not giving instruction on how to use these since anyone with experiance would know how to....
CREDIT DUE TO AOSP Magic by bubby323 for the theme and rom I've simply ripped the files needed to port the theme
Okay, here are the files needed. THIS IS NOT FLASHABLE IN CWR. Unzip the files, and push to system/framework. I would like to see if someone would make this compatible with DJ05. This is a bit different from bubby's, as bubby's has a few incorrect icons, most noticeably the signal meter. Also, you need the services.jar in order to get the black text in the notification bar. If anyone would like to package this up to have it work with DI01, please do so. Also, any of you theming masters out there, could you please port this for DJ05, I simply do not have the time or patience, lol.
+1 on a dj05 port =)

That would be money. Can someone do that?
I intend on doing this sometime as my first theme/port but it might be at least a week before I start because I have an upcoming exam and other work to do for my classes.
If someone else wants to undergo the task though be my guest

Have you thought of flashing a theme? UOT kitchen works fine for me, you must be doing something wrong IMO

The install script from UOT doesn't work properly. You have to manually put them into your phone using supermanager or root explorer and replace the 2 apk's manually then reboot or you could replace them from within the 5.3 zip and reflash.
Have you checked out the 7 themes we have available for Continuum v5? Link is in my sig.
I tried every way I know how the last couple days and just cant get it myself. I even tried UOT Kitchen and SHTF every time. Can someone try totally transparent status bar? Thanks.

Transparency requires both png and xml edits. There are plenty of guides on the interewebs.

I've been working on this mod for a few days. Its built into the framework.jar and is nowhere near as simple as pulling the jar file. Even the smali file he provided works with almost nothing. This is something that can be done by building from source or smali edits. I've looked at both and source looks like the way to go on it. I'll help get it over here if I get it done first. If not then someone can help me.
I'm guessing gooch did something a little different since this was.
