Use UOT kitchen, or copy the framework-Res.apk and manually change it (do not unzip, use winrar or 7zip to drag and drop the modified PNG back into the zip)

I have a question. Which PNG file is for the task bar? Most of the things in there, I can figure out on my own.

If you use go launcher, you can select the option to be able to use a gesture to hide the status bar. I just want to change the color of mine.

It works two ways. The XML is either coded to be linked to a status bar image if it is then you can decompile framework-res.apk using apk manager and just replace the image for the status bar. If it JUST a color it might not be linked to an image so you will have to decompile SystemUI.apk and edit the XML color hex. After you decompile the SystemUI.apk look for SystemUI\res\layout\status_bar.xml and edit it using Notepad++.
Hope this helps!

Status bar is a simple PNG edit, text would require a XML edit. I'll see if I can find the name of the status bar PNG a little later when I have some free time.

You have to click on battery or icon or whatever you want to change. Then just check each box you want to modify and make you changes (you can preview your changes as well) once you make all the changes you want then upload your framework-res.apk and systemUI.apk (from the rom your on, you can extract it by using a file system on your phone and navigate to system/app for systemUI and system/framework for the framework-res.apk. Then go to summary and make sure everything is green, if anything is red you'll have to investigate why, and submit your order. Click on "go to pickup page" and wait (anywhere from 3 minutes to 30 minutes)

The status bar is titled "statusbar_background.png" located in systemUI/res/drawable-hdpi folder

I was a themer for the Droid Charge and on that phone if you replaced the background image it wouldnt show up because the statusbar.xml was coded to read a hex color not an image.
The image is easy to find, its inside SystemUI.apk > res > drawable-hdpi > statusbar_background.9.
If it doesnt work its because its programmed to read a HEX color.
Good luck.

I haven't run into that on any Motorola or HTC phone. Also its not statusbar_background.9, its not a .9
Thank you guys.
Does anyone happen to have the link for UOT kitchen? No big deal if you don't because I can look it up but if someone does, it would be appreciated.

why don't you make it earlier hehe? my status bar got a little bit burn in. Avoiding to cause it more worse. I am still using yours. very nice done. thanks you
Thanks for sharing!
I can confirm that it doesn't work on my 6810 (no statusbar showing up). Your old version did work though... Could you make a version for 6810 too? I can post the SystemUI.apk if you need it and are willing to do it. Thanks!
doesn't seem to work on my 6800 either... the old one worked though...
Edit:
OK, unlike the previous one... you should have the original SystemUI.odex file in it's proper place and everything works
(I had to rename it for the previous version to work)
Battery and alarms are still in blue though...

works fine on my 6810.. there's one thing i don't like though: the wifi icon keeps jumping up and down when the traffic arrows appear
that makes it really irritating.

You don't have to be a developer. Or a themer.
All you need to know is what file to replace. Its actually simple.

The simplest way is to use the UOT KITCHEN (Not my work). That often requires some waiting time, though, and im not sure if it supports ICS touchwiz if ur using that.
If you want to do it manually it's unfortunately not only replacing a png in ICS, as the statusbar background is in xml, but I can tell you how to do that as well. Download and extract/install apk multi tool. (You might have to add Java to ur PATH). Then decompile ur systemui. Go to res/values/drawables and find the line status_bar_background and change the hex color to the value you want. Black is ff000000 and fully transparent is 00000000 i think. Semi transparent should be 50000000.

You probably messed something up in status_bar.xml , do it again carefully on clean systemui. Just follow that guide
