Hi all,
I'm really not a fan of the stock Tron-Like status bar and am thinking about changing it. I have looked into it and can prob figure out how to do everything bar the clock. Would it be possible for someone to walk me through this, or even better provide a CWM flashable zip to change from Stock Xoom to Stock Galaxy Tab?
I'm currently running stock UK 3.1 as i haven't seen a need to Root up until now. I would prefer to stay on the UK 3.1 also, as although i have tried Hammerhead and Morray, i dislike the soundset for the lock-screen and keyboard. (mainly the KB is far too quiet!)
Many Thanks in Advance!

it wouldn't be hard to change but it would require a rom that has the images you want and we could only change images.
I'm searching for the images now! Its weird, all the images on the Web show the Galaxy 10.1 as having different icons, but every rom i download has Stock HC ones...

For some odd reason everyone likes the stock ones. I don't on my build of mantaray i have the icons and clock font changed. You'll probably have to find a stock rom to get images.
I'll keep looking, in the mean time, i have worked out how to change the font of the clock - do you have any clue on how to change the colour?
Thanks
Just outta curiosity how did u change the font for the clock? I have font changer but I just want to change the clock font

Awsome thanks much appreciated

Hi Everyone,
I've been modding my install of Moray for the last couple days - changing images and backgrounds, trying to remove as much of the blue blur as I can. I've used some images from a tab 10.1 rom I downloaded. I've been pretty successful at this so far.
I've also changed the stock clock, but once I replace the font files, the clock on the lockscreen has a lot of extra space between it and the date, as well a very little bit of the left side is cut off. Any suggestions as to how this can be solved?
Snapshots are below of before & after.

I noticed the font not quite fitting on the lock screen too, so for now i've gone back to stock font for that.
I've used the Galaxy Tab icons and given them the same colour as the Wifi and Battery icons, then used the DroidSans font for the clock and used the same colour there too.
Here is a screen, its simple but far preferable.

How did you change the status bar font, and leave the lockscreen font as stock? Which of the three stock files did you modify?
Also, how did you change the colour of the clock in the status bar? I assumed this was possible with xml files, buti haven't adventured into this area yet.

The status bar clock colour can be changed in SystemUI.apk/res/layout-xlarge/status-bar-notification-area.xml, under the entry "holoclock"
I changed only the AndroidClock-Solid.ttf for the font, the other 2 fonts combine to make the lock screen and notification pop-up font.
All is explained really well on the XML editing here on method 2 in post 3.
Hope This Helps
I would like to change the status bar too!
Here are the pngs for
Wifi
Battery
And toggles (bottom left)
You can edit them how you like and place the in the right apks
(systemui or framework.res)
inside the zip tells you where i got them from
Hope it helps!
Making this thread for people that are trying to do some subtle self theming on their own, without a ROM. (There really isn't a whole lot of themed ROMS out anyways, monsteRom is the only one i think.) you can find monsterROM in the general section.
Anyways let's say you are using ninjamorph and you want to change the 3g icon on your droid 3 but can't find it. come here post what you need someone may help.

[edit] just kidding i found what i need in systemui

I'm experimenting with some theming, I cooked up one in the uot kitchen but not all the changes seemed to work. Some the signal bar indicator didn't change and the text colour for notification items(all other text colours changed) also the background in the pull down curtain. I found the icons, and the new icons are in there, but don't show on the phone. How do I make them the default icons? Also if anyone knows which XML sets the text colour and how I can fix the background it would be appreciated.

As for changing the icons just editing them should work. Are you using ninja morph? And what do you mean "fix the background"

Although I changed the pull down notification bar background in uot, it still has that moto blue.

So if I want to change one set of icons for another, I need to rename the new set to overwrite the old set?

Hi, I hope this thread is ok, I have been searching for an hour and cannot find anything about the Paranoid Android ROM in the General forum, only in the Dev forum.
I think the features of this rom are very good but the text on the status bar is so small when on the Salsa screen, The screen size is set to 'Phone' in the ParanoidAndroid settings (360px), is there any way to make the status bar bigger ?
Thanks,
Mike

It is OK in phone mode. The problem is when someone loads into phablet mode..... Then text gets really small. And that problem is with the screen size..... Because when I use phablet mode on my 7 inch tab then things work well...... I actually find the size to be as big as cm10. However in settings/system/status bar I have set my clock to big size..... So things run well on my phone.....

it's not easy! because you have to decompile systemUI and change the size of png file in the folder res also need to modify an existing xml file in smali folder, after that you can recompile in order to obtain apk file as you wish

I think it must have defaulted to Phablet mode.
Although settings/paranoid settings/interface/ is all set to phone mode, when i went to settings/paranoid settings/launch/ and selected Stock UI it fixed the problem.
Thanks for the reply.

I used the ROM for a day, installed the proposed sd-script and it got very slow. Has it something to do with the used SD card? I use a Class 10 16GB SD-Card with a 500MB ext3 partition.

I changed from CM7 to this ROM, using the same 2GB SD card with the same 500MB ext3 partition, this ROM does lag a little but I assumed that was because it is Android 4.1 rather Android 2.3.
There are some ideas to increase performance in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2290110&page=3
cm10 roms are slow any way you try. You can try and speed it up by reducing animations and such but it will only increase it slightly.
Am I being lame, there is no button on the Slim Paranoid status bar dropdown to clear the notifications.
There is one on the stock rom and on CM7, is there a way to enable it in this rom ?
Don't know to he honest. I just swipe them away normally, unless I have to many but that's not normal for me lol.

I had a bit of a search on the web and xda developers,but can't seem to find what im looking.Tryung to find out what the stock icon sizes are for the htc one on Jellybean 4.2.2?I would like to add ios 5.1.1/6 icons (120x120) over the top of my exsisting apps,but i dont want to run launchers or different roms,very happy with 4.2.2and Sense 5.Please be gentle,this is my first Android phone,and still trying to get my head around things
Cheers
From my Aussie style HTC One
72x72 & 144x144 .. In apks they seem to be 72x72 but they won't change unless you decompile and sign them from my personal experience. In some of the framework files, the icons for system apps such as calendar, camera, phone etc, they're 144x144.
This isn't concrete as far as where each size dwells but they are the two sizes I've come across for apps.
So if i were able to put the 120x120 aplle icons over android apps,would it end up looking weird,as in weird shadows under the icons,etc?

What do you mean putting them over android apps? You'd obviously have to replace them and if I were you I'd resize them to be the same dimensions but it shouldn't matter that much as it's not like ****ty Apple with their stupid masks that leave a black shadow around Icons, especially noticeable when using non-square icons.
The one thing to note is that if you plan to change the icons for things like camera, phone, gallery etc, the icons are 72x72 in the app but 144x144 in htc.resources.apk. If you don't make the icons the same sizes then you will end up with tiny icons on your homescreen but normal ones on the lockscreen. For example, if you change the phone icon then you have to put a 144x144 icon in htc.resources.apk otherwise it won't be the correct size.
i know its too soon,am so far liking everything about the one ui,but app icons are hugely ugly,is there any way to shrink them on the nav bar and inside the app drawer.
i tried increasing the dpi in dev options it didnt affect them.
thanks

make your dpi 411 or 410 and check If it make different

Or, just go Settings-Home Screen- and change home and apps screen grid. much easier
^^^This was easier, but I then realized my fat fingers kept hitting the wrong app when I'm not focused on what I'm doing, so I had to revert back to 4x5 arrangement. I prefered the Oreo icons, and want those back (even if it is a theme).
set your dpi to 510, it makes the phone even looks like it came from the future... very sharp and awesome
