[MIUI][MOD][GUIDE] statusbar carrier logo & pattern lock dots

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE TO YOUR DEVICE BY FLASHING THIS MOD. !THIS MOD IS ONLY FOR MIUI GB ROM!
FOR ALL OF YOU WHO WANT ONLY PATTERN DOTS, HERE IS FLASHABLE ZIP FOR CM7.2, NO NEED TO MOUNT SYSTEM
AS SOON AS CM9 GET STABLE ENOUGH FOR DAILY USE, I'LL TRY TO MAKE IT WORK ON IT
Hi, I made something for You! Now You can have anything in place of Your mobile carrier name on status bar! happy? ;d And also, now You can use pattern lockscreen, because I replaced those big black ugly circles with something much more subtle ;p screenshot's and flashable zip in attachments.
TODO:
I will make this tutorial n00b friendly as soon as possible, so no one will get confused I'm also planning to expand this thread with other modifications like center clock, carrier logo for cm7, and others...
MIUI & CM7 STATUSBAR CARRIER LOGO GUIDE
I assume that You are familiar with ADB and ApkTool
1. pull and decompile SystemUI.apk
2. go to .../res/layout and open status_bar.xml
3. remove this line:
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.CarrierLabel
4. find start of this line:
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.IconMerger
5. now You have to put this right above the line mentioned above:
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.CarrierLabel android:textAppearance="@android:style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Icon" android:textColor="@android:color/transparent" android:gravity="left|center" android:id="@id/carrier" android:background="@drawable/carrier_logo" android:paddingLeft="6.0px" android:paddingRight="6.0px" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:singleLine="true" />
6. You can save and exit now
7. now open .../res/values/ids.xml
8. check if this line is present:
Code:
<item type="id" name="carrier">false</item>
if yes, move it to bottom, right before closing tag. if no, paste it there
9. save and compile SystemUI
10. go to .../build/apk/res/layout and drag status_bar.xml to SystemUI.apk (opened in other window)
11. do the same with ids.xml (that way You won't have to sign apk)
12. put image of Your choice in res/drawable_xdpi (it must be named "carrier_logo.png", put any letter corresponding to Your resolution instead of x, for example ldpi)
13. push SystemUI.apk and reboot, and You've almost done!
14. now You just install Carrier_Name_1.2.apk from here, open it, put space in textfield and press ok, then reboot and that's it!
for CM7 skip step 3, and edit line in point 5 to Your needs (android:layout_width="wrap_content")
*edit* best way to add carrier logo to cm7, is to resize your logo to 20px in height, and put proper number in "layout_width" and "layout_heigth" eg. if your logo is 20px in height and let's say 34px in width, it will be layout_width="34pix" and layout_height="20pix" (depends on your phones resolution, this one is for ldpi)
!note - if You can't compile it back, make sure that all files referred to in xml are present in folders (eg. carrier_logo.png)
to use Your own image as carrier logo:
-open SystemUI.apk from my flash with winzip, or any other similar program of Your choice
-go to /res/drawable-hdpi and replace carrier_logo.png with any image of Your choice ;p
Bugs: image stretches when signal is null (emergency calls only)

*reserved*

For future use

Don't know why but my carrier label name still on my status bar.. I've changed it to blank ..
ooh it just happen when i scroll down status bar.. Anyone can help me?

ill be monitoring this thread
also OP it would be nice if you could write what files should be edited to make this, i know most people would appreciate it because of different miui patchroms and devices because it doesnt work properly on all devices i guess, i know mine got a bit messed up with both carrier logo and stretched picture under it
good work tho, thumbs up
edit: nvm OP, i decompiled your SystemUI and fixed it for my rom, looks nice now, thanks

Give Up .......
I give up. Been trying since morning to get carrier logo but in the end I got this.
No matter what logo I use I get this logo. I even tried editing my systemUI.apk manually and replacing it. Used the zip the OP attached but still get this logo. I wonder why.:banghead::banghead::banghead:

If its miui change theme to default, some themes have built-in logo. To edit theme, open mtz with winzip, and find systemui, then open it and change it there

I will post full step by step guide today evening

On mine, I can't delete/or change the default Carrier label name.. No matter how I tried to change it with Carriername.apk..

Transparent Status Bar? RazoDroid 2.5

Hello. If you want your statusbar transparent you have to edit the file SystemUI and edit the background of the statusbar.

I have tried all

It doesnt work
I dedicated my 2 months on it
Still dont work
We need someone who knows a lotttttt

M8, it is easy like the quantum theory
1. Decompile systemUI.apk
2. go to its /layout folder
3. edit status_bar.xml file:
- find line : <com.android.systemui.statusbar.StatusBarView ...... containing android:background="#FF000000"
- change value of background to "#00000000" and now you have got full transparency of statusbar ( just like mine )
easy, isn't it ?

Yes, it is. I did this screen shot especially for you to show you result of changes.
To tell the truth I don't remember from which place I downloaded my apktool, but use google and I'm sure that you will find what you looking for

The apktool I used first could not compile SystemUI.apk
Then I changed it
Then I changed the hex code to semi transparent
And when I replaced the SystemUI.apk
My status bar was gone
I think transparent might work
Can you please upload your apktool
I would be really grateful

As U wish, here U are. Hope will be helpful

Okay?

[GUIDE]How to make status bar transparent

You need to have these things first :
1- Root
2- Deodexed ROM
3- PC (with JAVA installed)
4- Any apk decompiler (apktool, apk-multitool, etc..)
How to :-
1- Copy SystemUI.apk from /system/app/ to your sd card via any root browser.
2- transfer SystemUI.apk to your computer.
3- Decompile SystemUI.apk.
4- Open res\layout\status_bar.xml
5- There you will see a value like android:background=FF000000
6- To make it translucent type 5F000000 instead of FF000000 or to make it full transparent type 000000
Enjoy and if any questions plz ask here.. .

XDA (for some knowledge about status_bar.xml)

Ok, this guide needs to be elaborated... :angel:
I did the same, and following was output:
1. Even while changing background to 5f000000, background became full transparent.
2. Whenever i open an app, status bar becomes black again(opaque)
3. During media scanning also status bar looses transparency!
This means status bar is only transparent when on homescreen!
I'm attaching images which i tried on jelly blast rom and also the modded systemui.apk (of Jelly Blast rom) if anyone wants to try. Just rename the file to systemui.apk and put in system/app, change permissions and reboot. you will face lots of force close messages but don't worry after reboot it'll be fine!:good:

bro you don't have to edit drawer.xml but statusbar.xml -.-
And this guide is small and easy one for those who don't want to all the long fuss!
so you will get transparent status bar only when on homescreen or pulling the notification panel down
And I you want permanent transparency then you must search other guides or if they are not there then I will try to make it when I would get time

i think that I should mod the launcher so that it will have permanent trans. but I don't know how, if its ok with to make a tut it will be a big help for me

This guide is correct. Just make it sure that you paste this value "#00000000" or "#ff000000"

TIPS​
Tip-1
Enable CRT screen off animation in ur phone(Will not enable animation when screen is turned on)(does not work on S5830i)
Decompile framework-res.apk
go to res/values find bools.xml and open it.
[/B]
Change this
<bool name="config_animateScreenLights">true</bool>
to this
<bool name="config_animateScreenLights">false</bool>
If this does not work, look for detailed guide with editing of services.jar
Tip-2
Change your android version and name(just a superficial change!)
1. Open your explorer.
2. Go to system/
3. There's a file named "build.prop"
4. Long press and then open in text editor.
5. Find these-
ro.build.display.id - Build Number(Default: GINGERBREAD.XXLA2)
ro.build.version.release- Android version(Default: 2.3.6)
6. Edit, Save and Reboot!
Tip-3
Make status bar transparent(Only transparent for homescreen)
1. Decompile systemui.apk
2. Go to res/layout/status_bar,xml
3.Find android:background=FF000000 and change it to android:background=000000000 for full transparency and to android:background=5F000000 for half transparency.
4.If android:[email protected] statusbar_background (this name can be different) is present in status_bar.xml then you can find the image named statusbar_background in res/drawable-ldpi( or mdpi/hdpi depending on the device) and make that image transparent via image editors!
This simply means our status bar background is drawable and we are providing proper image for it!
Will add more tips soon!

I did, but not to you
Also, is the CRT effect not able to be done on a Gingerbread-based stock rom? I decompiled my framework-res.apk with NinjaMorph but, I can't seem to find the dir [APK ROOT]/res/values nor the bools.xml file...
Another question, is it dangerous to my rom's stability if I use somebody else's framework-res.apk? (taking into account that my rom's backed up though, it's not really an issue )
Ah, my phone is a GT-S5830M (same as the GT-S5830i)

It is yes, but you can only theme images it seems with NinjaMorph, which is why it doesn't list the folders that consist mainly of xmls, which can only be edited after being decompiled.

This simply means our status bar background is drawable and we are providing proper image for it!
Will add more tips soon!

SORRY!
Sorry but i think i have a wrong with this files i'll fix it so wait please wait.

wats error??

you cant do that with public.xml because not everyones public.xml will be the same
if they have modded things before they will have extra lines and so on so you cant say delete between here and there and replace with this
Also you cant tell someone to use those hex values
hex values relate to smali code and if you change them you also have to change the smali values too or it will force close or display something totally different
for example if I add a png to res/drawable-ldpi and recompile the apk it will add its hex value to the public.xml
you can then reference this hex value in smali to display the png - for example an image next to a volume slider
different frameworks may have different hex values in public.xml especially if things have already been modified and have had things added
In my experience the quicket way to make the statusbar transparent is just by adding a fully transparent png and then changing the android backgroud to a drawable value in status_bar.xml to reference that png
if you want to spend a little more time you can use the colour chooser smali and app so you can set your status bar colour and transparency level to what ever you want when ever you want without decompiling it everytime to change it
For cm7/9 its slightly different - you have to mod some smali and do other things

Working or not??
