Is there anyway to change the icon of an ongoing notification in the notification bar? I have the app Status Notes running at all times and the icon in my notification bar is an eyesore. There is an option to make it blank but I don't like having a blank spot in the middle of all my other notifications on my notification bar. I'm not sure if anyone can create a morph for just this app to make it look nicer or if I can change it to whatever I want myself, but any help would be greatly appreciated.
Can someone provide us with a transparent statusbar metamorph theme?Even a white one.This solid black statusbar is annoying...^^

I 've managed to extract framework folder.I opened framework-res.apk and found a lot of folders.I assume the .png i am looking for is located in drawable-ldpi folder,but the problem is that i cannot find which .png it is.If someone could guide me things would be much easier.Thanks Daniel for your response,can't wait for your themes...
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...
OK, for some reason I want to get rid of the notification bar, but don't want to loose any functionality, so I need a substitute for what it does. So far I found :
- toggles : widgetsoid. I'm sure there's a lot of widget that does this, but this one is nice and does what I want.
- battery level and Wi-Fi / 3G strength indicators : widgetsoid does propose that again, but I like the icons less. Maybe I'll buy the alternative icons (default ones are free), or find an alternative.
- notifications : that's where it does get tricky. Is there any widget that just displays notifications from the notification bar ? I know Nova Launcher Prime allows icons to displays a number of messages / missed calls / unread mails, etc, but I'm not sure it can cover every notification from the bar.
- anything else I'm missing from the notification bar ?
Thanks
Isn't there a feature on Nova launcher to hide the status bar ? I remember being able to do this on my SGS1 and all i had to do to get it back was swipe down the screen, Then when i swiped it back up it would disappear.
As for totally removing it, I dont know if its possible as you would have to dig deep into the framework and a lot of the system requires it.
On paranoid android you can remove the notification bar, or keep it at the bottom
My english is not very good, sorry I was not clear. My problem is not to hide the status / notification bar (nova allows this, no problem). The problem is find widgets or other workarounds to get the functionalities (toggles, notifications, clock, battery level indicator, etc) of the notification / status bar since I won't use it at all. To be more precise, I'll be using a TW based custom ROM at 213 DPI, so notification bar won't appear at all.

Thanks for the statusbar+, although it does not exactly what I want...I guess I'll stick with phone mode.
Does someone know of a way to remove the status bar toggles? Is there a file to modify in systemUI.apk or framework-res.apk?
yes there is a way unfortunate im not that skilled
I'm listening... I'd love to get rid of the mobile data toggle. The others are useful, that one isn't.
I hope there is someone out there knowing the answer as I like to use my own toggles app and having two of them doesn't look goog at all.
Also I saw this screenshot showing a blue clock in the expanded notification bar and would like to know what to modify to change the color of the clock and the date? (this came from a Mod which included the toggles, I would only need the file and passage to edit for changing the color)
Any help is appreciated.
Is it possible to get back the notification icons in the statusbar?
So when you get a notification the clock disappear and the notification icons will be visible?
It is a huge miss on this phone!
Is it possible to mod something like this?
Are here any skilled framework editors to make this happen?
As on stock rom its not possible and developers are not active on this phone yet
