Hello, is there any way to modify a theme so when I apply it through cyanogen's Theme Chooser it only changes the status bar and the pull down?
Thank you.
Hi! I know you asked about cm, but in miui you can mix n' match your theme, eg. icons from this, statusbar from another, and hs indicators from something else
I think it would be way easier to just decompile SystemUI and change the pngs there and recompile it!

How can I change what icons come up on the notification bar? I'm running the latest CM mod.
framework-res.apk res/drawable hdpi...
Maybe search for metamorph.
I was just wondering if anyone can tell me what files needs to be edited to obtain the overscroll glow effect and the transparency in the notification pull-down bar.
I wanted to port over a theme I liked using the APK Manager to my current rom (S-VII) but I dunno what to edit in order to obtain these two effects.
I know the framework.apk file effects the overscroll glow but i don't know what image or xml edit i need to do.
Thanks.
(If possible where the no clock notification and the pop up animations edits can be made would be appreciated but the other two above take priority. Thanks.)
You can accomplish most of these mods with the UOT kitchen.
If you want to do the overscroll effect yourself though you will need to edit the framework.jar (in the /system/framework folder) on your ROM. You can use this tutorial if you want to do it manually, or download the attached pre-modified framework.jar from Serendipity 7. It's JVO based, but should work on all Samsung-based Gingerbread ROM's according to the tutorial I listed a minute ago.
To change the color of the glow effect, edit the 2 overscroll png's located in the framework-res.apk. (also can be done with the UOT kitchen)
Download framework.jar
Here's also a post that may help
The way that I make the status bar and notification pull-down shade transparent are by using Photoshop (or GIMP) to make them the color I want and then to make them transparent. These PNG's are also located within the framework-res.apk. This can also be done with the UOT Kitchen.
No clock in notification bar: A quick search in this forum would have yielded this post for you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943212
I hope this helps.
thanks ill play around w/ this more
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.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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.

there isnt any
There's Zdune's miui theme for cm7, except the pull down is grey, I haven't played around with it, but I'm sure you can edit the status bar png to white on pulldown:

The status bar is transparent by default on MIUI and I haven't found a way outside of running MIUI to have the status bar black normally (or transparent) and then have a different color pull down status bar.
MIUI does it very well and I can't seem to find a simple MIUI like CM7 theme either. I've tried the above link but I have issues with icons sticking and overlapping.
Right now I'm leaning toward "MinimalBread" in the Market, but it isn't the same.
Perhaps use just the "Black Version" of the MIUI Theme listed above. I had no luck trying the transparent statusbar patch.
Use the uot kitchen. It's extremely easy to use and will let you do what you are wanting to do.
*ins>rt sig here*
I would like to replace my current status bar icons, notification background, and notification icons, but without other changes. I have the t-mobile Theme Chooser on my ROM (OxygeN1Mod). I have tried some other themes, and some of the items above are changed to nice alternatives, but they always change a bunch of other things too.
Sorry for the newb question, but are there status/notification-only themes? Are there other ways to accomplish this?
Use UOT Kitchen and change only what you like.
