Hi Friends
Could anybody please tell how to make status bar transparent in Nokia X2.
Currently I am using xblast tools for that purpose but the bar becomes black after I receive or make a call.
Gravity box does not work.
Please suggest me any other modules or app for this.
Thanks in advance!
Here you go...I ur firmware is odexed then go to /system/app and delete systemui.odex and replace your systemui.apk with this one and if your firmware is deodexed then just replace the apk
I have to restart my phone after doing that? Will it make status bar transparent? Thankyu very much!!
I am seeing file systemui.odex I have to delete this one?
I have done that but it keeps on showing message 'cant do this 'com.systemui.apk' at the movement'
Thank god i have made backup of default system ui.apk qnd i have replaced it.
Any other idea?
Thnqs in Advance
Yes bro its transparent...and u will have to delete odex file and then replace it...after replacing you will get a series of force closes but dont worry jst pull you battery out and put it in and turn on the mobile...but remember first delete odex file then replace
Request Original SystemUI.apk

yes, the png resides in the /system.framework/framework-res.apk in there its under res\drawable-mdpi\statusbar_background.9.png.
So use 7 zip and apk manager take this png i posted, go into the mentioned folder above in your favorite rom or theme and replace it with this one its the stock one from CM6.
note: don't alter this png its a 9 patch just replace it in the apk without unziping it or the rom in which your replacing it in. You'll also need to resign your rom or you could just push the new framework-res.apk in a root adb shell.
i don't really understand you... do i need rooted phone.. i can't fint that folder.. ? can u explain me a little more please !
Yes your phone will need to be rooted. And you'll need to use a standard theme setup.

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.. .

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"
android:background="#00000000" or android:background="#ff000000"

I downloaded an app called Icon Finder Plus, then I chose an icon and save it to my phone. Exit the icon app, Then long press the button you want to change and it should come up with, (move/resize/edit). hit the edit and then the picture, then choose the icon you want and your done.

Yep sure. Basically all of the softkey images are PNG files stored inside SystemUI.apk. And it's really straight forward if you just want to replace PNG files such as battery, signal and softkey icons.
There are two ways, you can either decompile SystemUI.apk and replace the PNGs inside (harder, time consuming method) or use a program called 7zip to open the apk archive and replace the PNGs (easier, quick method).
I used the second method to replace the softkeys. Here's how to do it:
*Always backup in recovery before modifying files*
Install 7zip
Right click SystemUI.apk and select 7zip -> Open archive
You'll see a few files/folders, open 'res' then 'drawable-xxhdpi' you'll see lots of PNG files
The ones I replaced were 'ic_sysbar_home.png' and 'ic_sysbar_home_land.png'
Drag these two files to the Desktop and open them with Photoshop or any image editing software
Erase the existing image and replace with any other desired logo/icon and save (remember the background must be kept transparent)
Drag the edited files back into the SystemUI.apk archive (res->drawable-xxhdpi)
Then copy the edited SystemUI.apk back to your phone, then move it to /system, change permissions to rw- r-- r-- then move it to /system/app and overwrite when prompted (your phone will probably reboot, it's normal)
That's it!
