Bump. I would like to hide the alarm icon. I have alarms set all the time, it just takes up space without providing any information.
I have root.

That would be awesome, I know you can customize status bar on CM but that would be great on stock. In case there is a solution by now, please let us know!

use nova launcher that can remove status bar,u can still draw curtain down,i think apex launcher also has this feature..

Gave it one star. Doesn't do what you said, only adds notifications

Did you ever find a solution? This is especially irritating considering that I installed Battery Widget Reborn and it has a more readable icon that sits next to the default one.

I have a Verizon S3, but here is what I found, just have a question...
I did a search looking to delete my battery icon from my status bar now since I have the percentage up there. I have already found the stat_sys_battery.xml file but I had a couple quick questions. (got my info from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010487 )
I downloaded 7Zipper from the market, open the SystemUI.apk with it ("Open with Zip Viewer), go to res/drawable and I navigate to stat_sys_battery.xml, the only option I get is to extract it, not delete it. Does this need to be done via a computer to actually delete it or will "extracting it" just remove it from the .apk?
Also, I have 2 res folders: 1 dated 09 Nov 12 & one dated 01 Jan 80
With that said, I also have 2 drawable folders, both with the same dates as the res folders.
It appears they are the same, but look like they have the same things in them. I guess in the end my question is, Is this the proper way to delete this on the phone or should I plug it in and delete from the computer?

Install JKay framework (link found in my signature), and then buy the deluxe app from the play store to customize it. you can hide or center clock, alarm, battery and play with it the way you want. It also contains lots of other features

brother many friends reply u try to help u after that y u not replying back on ur op?

In his defense, this thread is about 6 months old...Not sure if you saw the date or not.
OAE08, thank you, I'll download that and check it out. I like that idea better anyway instead of having to mess with the phone files
Edit: I see you need CWM too install this, huh? I have TWRP right now...although ODIN looks like an option.
Edit: No flash! Thanks Glebun.

[APP] Transparent Settings app LIST ADDED FOR INTERESTED PORTERS :D

Heey there
I was searching a while for a transparent settings app (I like transparent apps so )
Since no theme porter or dev was answering the Q for transparent settings app
I tried to customize the settings app myself i tried different things but unsuccessful (maybe because of my limited skills )
After some more trying it almost works
So thought I'll post it here so everyone can enjoy a transparent settings app
Since I'm not a dev or theme porter and I was just trying something out
There are some bugs in it but I don't have the required skills to fix them all
so if there is any dev or theme porter that could give me some tips PM PLEAS I really want this done
Extra options that work
Build in font changer in settings app itself so no need for Third party app
G-sensor calibration option
This need to be "fixed"
Wireless and network menu
Bluetooth switch on the check-box in the settings menu doesn't work (when you enable bleutooth in the statusbar the settings can be changed in the bleutooth menu)
Call settings menu
The call settings menu should be expanded (now there is only a voice-mail setting option so nothing like hide numer callsettings etc.)
Sound settings menu
There is an option for video-call ringtone (need to be removed but doesn't give FC so not urgent )
Display settings menu
Brightness setting doesn't work (if you use the Power control widget you can change the brightness)
There are options for
- White colour density
- Black colour density
- Saturation
- TV out
All FC, whether they should be removed or fixed, if someone can make these option working that would be super
The horizontal calibration must be edit because the roll indicator is not one the right scale
Location and security menu
The option for aiding sensors is missing
Application menu
in the menu "manage applications the size for each app is on the big side not verry handy if you have a lot of apps but its just for the looks so not verry urgent
SD-card and memory menu
There is an option for formatting internal memory haven't tried it yet but if someone has enough courage to try this option we will know if it works
For the rest everything is working perfect
Thx man
Love it !

Reflash a Rom is much more easier than prepare a cup noodles. Just plug to PC and then fire up odin, wait for 2mins than Titanium Backup than that's all
Now doing a full Backup
But anyway thank you for your setting.apk

That's true
but when i see its not working but I'm on my way home and don't have a pc I just replace the old one
so no reboot, flash or backup needed
Thanks for trying I hope some day a theme porter will give me some tips or make a better one
I'll reupload my previous one so some people can try it out and maybe fix the bugs
After trying my first attempt again i discovered that the build in font changer in the settings app works so you can apply new fonts in the settings app itself so no need to install any third party apps
Also the option for G-sensor calibration works!!!
Well. The main difference you will find in styles.xml when you decompile this Settings.apk and the one from our phone. There are some lines that have to be added to it. And then you will have to define them in Public.xml also. And then again you will have to declare them in the classes.dex file. i.e. in the smali files.
Its tedious. Smali/baksmali.

Since I actually still have very little experience with XML. I am teaching myself more, so it will take a while before I can continue to improve this
many thanks for your advice

what's the exact problem/ui issue your are having? (like text color or list item selection color etc.)

Replacing Icons ?

Hello all,
I am running Check Rom V6 right now. I have 5 icons, dialer, contacts, messaging, home, and apps. I was wondering if someone could guide me on how to use these icons. They are all in a .png format. Any help is very much appreciated.
Thanks

What launcher are you using? Most allow you to replace icons with ones of your choosing, you'll just have to put them on your sdcard.
If you're wanting to theme icons at the system level, or your launcher doesn't allow you to select a custom icon, then you'll have to modify apks.

Send me the icons and I'll make a flashable .zip for you that will change them, hassle free ( plus a recovery one so you can revert them if you don't like them ).
It's 2 minutes of work
Edit : I figure you want to change them while using Touchwiz, because replacement launchers do it easily anyway
Thank You Sir!!!!
I have uploaded the contacts messaing apps and all icons i dont need the dialer as it is stock look in the newest 2.3.6 builds

CWM -> Install update from sdcard ( don't worry about "enter the Vertumus world" text, I just edited Vert's zip a bit )
tested on my phone and works like a charm
Now I just need to wait till my CheckROM v6 finishes downloading so I can make a restore zip for you.
I'm not sure what the default icons are in new version and I need it anyway
Check this post later on. Post a screenshot when you flash it
Sir dont worry about the the restore packages i have a backup. I will post a screen shot thank you soo much though

Not strictly true - although it is an app drawer replacement.
Can change icons and names with this, my favourite ever app ever of all time ever.
As I've posted before, if there's an easier way to edit icons/text and retain functionality, I have yet to find it.
Especially because I couldn't modify an apk if my life was at stake...

Actually, the easiest way is using vrtheme, no need to modify apks or use anything else than the Touchwiz launcher itself

Not joking, sorry. Haven't used nor installed TW launcher for about 7 months.
Live and learn - glad to be corrected, and not worried about my ignorance being on public display. Can hardly backtrack now can I?
Can you edit icons and app names there too?

But it is being looked into. Everything else is in settings app except the above mentioned apps as those settings are external from settings app.
If you open phone app press menu (or 3 dot button top right)
You get 2 options
Call
Contacts
Click contacts and there is the screen you refere to.

Well when iv done the phone app you will see.
Here's an example
Instead or click phone click message.
The message screen will be black.
Because iv themed it. if you put stock message app back. Then go to settings, last tab, messages it will be white. Im not gonna bicker, this is my theme that im sharing. But trust me its called from the phone. The tiles in settings are shortcuts to the respective app settings.

[MODS] Small Collection of Tweaks!

Hello! This is a bunch of tweaks I created to make Samsung devices better by modding the interface to really polish it. Enjoy!
Installation
Installing is simple. Navigate to the play store and download the required packages.
Substratum
Substratum Required Addon For Samsung
Samsung System Mods via Playstore (RECOMMENDED)
Samsung System Mods Direct APK (BACKUP)
Tips
- A reboot is usually required to apply the tweak.
- Some tweaks are incompatible on some devices.
- Oreo is in beta (until I get it)
- The nav bar heights are broken on the note and oreo. I can't fix it. Sorry.
- I can do requests. All I ask is you consider donating.
- You can hide status bar icons. You must use another APK: SystemUI Tuner (from the play store)
More mods are coming! Please leave suggestions for more mods you want so I can try and make them. I've been getting lots of positive feedback. Also, Tigerhoods, Pimpmaneaton, Venom, and Crayonyes have been helping me a bit, so big thanks to them .

I know everyone wants to get rid of the carrier name but I'd love to add it on my status bar lol any ideas? Cheers
Keep up the great work. I love my phone more and more for every day, and this is making it perfect.
Its all the small things, that makes it beautiful
Thank U
Added 2 more UI tweaks from the other post for the other phone. Includes removing either clock or battery icon from status bar. Thanks for the support!

Remove Unlock Text & Remove Status Bar Battery Icon (not percent) --> Work great. Big Thx.
THIS IS AMAZING!!!
The Disable Nav Bar tweak works perfect.
Before this tweak, I still applied the "qemu.hw.mainkeys=1" line to the build.prop file, but with that, I lose the ability to take screenshots with the combo buttons (power + vol down).
Thank you for this awesome tweak!!!

The ability to remove time/date from lock screen
The ability to remove shortcuts, time/date, and unlock text from lockscreen
Either of which within your power?
This is probably beyond the scope of this project and doesn't seem to be any real answer. I've tried substratum clean lock and it doesn't work fully on samsung. Would be awesome if this is some magic you could work
If not, no worries. What you've got going on here is quite nice and much appreciated!

I'm aware what's in post one. Apparently, my wording was really bad lol. This was more or less a request to make 1 mod to remove time/date, and if it's possible to do that, then perhaps 1 mod to incorporate them all together as one mod - just to avoid having to download and install multiple mods.
However, I honestly hadn't seen the options to turn off shortcuts on the lock screen. So thanks for that!

Here you go, this should remove lock screen clock. I also have one that will theme it so it's not quite so ugly.
The aod hides are working great for me! See my attached screenshot
Thank you for these modifications. Hiding the clock and battery kind the status bar are my favorite mods.

Here you go, this should remove lock screen clock. I also have one that will theme it so it's not quite so ugly.

Wow beat me to it! Nice work here! Only side effect I see is that the "Emergency Call" button text is transparent (#00000000). Will take a go at it, see if I can change the clock dimens instead of the color. If I can't get it to work, I'd be totally happy to add your APK to the OP and assign full credit for it if you want.
And if you're interested, maybe we could discuss more modding over Telegram. PM me if you are interested

As much as I'd love to take credit that came from someone else, although I have been modifying existing overlay apks pretty extensively, and I could use some motivation to setup Android studio and do this right

[APP] Second Screen Status Bar

NOTE: ALPHA PHASE HAS FINISHED.
If anyone wants to continue using this app which is going to be pro only for the moment, contact me (tg group and channel)
THIS PROJECT IS BEING UPDATED AND SUPPORTED AND I DON'T PLAN TO ABANDON IT.
If you ever wanted to have a working status bar in the second screen in a stock ROM, this is the thread you were looking for.
I have coded a widget for the second screen that replaces what the stock status bar does (and even more perhaps).
It has been months of coding.
As always, you have to install the app and open second screen settings and enable the widget.
If you want to hide the status bar, there are several ways. I do it using an xposed app to change status bar height. If you don't want to use xposed, you will have to go the long way of modding system. I may do it some day when I finish coding but there is a lot of stuff in my to-do list.
Don't forget to use the settings option to set some of the available features in this release.
If you find any bugs, I will need a log (logcat) with both log settings enabled. I will try to fix any bugs.
Check the attached screenshots!

Thanks for the app, but it won't install on my V20 (F800K, Oreo 8.0).
It shows "App not installed" at the end of the APK install.

Haven't been tested on the F800K but pm me and I'll try to build something for you
On ls997 7.0. Colors are not changing as set, even after reboots
Have you tried using "adb shell wm overscan" to hide the status bar?
Eg.
wm overscan 0,-100,0,0

I have not been trying much how to hide the status bar as I need time to code the app but afaik that can't be done because it will mess full screen apps (and maybe the notifications pull down because it's not drawn below the status bar but over it). Let me know if I'm wrong or if you know how to make it work correctly. Thanks
If you use any app that changes its notification icon, like a battery meter app, speedmeter app, weather app, etc, you will see the icon does not get updated. This is because I tried to optimize everything as much as possible so the app is coded to get the icon just once. The PRO version, if it ever gets to be released (depending on the interest of the users), will have some code to handle those apps which very little battery drain (which actually depends on how buggy or optimized is the notification posting from the app).
In the tg channel there is a video showing it.
@Daved+ tested works fine, thanks for this. I'm glad that it doesn't go away suddenly like previous solutions. I'm interested in buying pro version, jus need to figure out a way to disable the status bar without going the Xposed way. Tried Nova launcher hide option, it takes away the second screen as well, so no luck yet.
Edit: quote op correctly
Working great on my unlocked US996.
Would love to have single line height rather than stacked. Too cluttered with two lines of icons for my taste.
Thanks!

AFAIK you have to patch system to change the height of the status bar (you have to use apktool to decompile and compile).
Join the group on tg if you can for further discussion

Great to hear it works in different models. I can do other layouts, I have several ideas, this one was to use the second screen as much as possible to make the screen look bigger so no empty spaces in the corners. If you want, let me know your ideas, but I also need support to continue development.
I don't seem to be getting all of my notifications. Things like facebook messenger dont show up.
Spelling mistake on : Only show top 6,Hide headphones if HIFI is on.
How much is paid version?

If you are having any problems with notifications, contact me thru pm or three dot menu in the app. Also please do the same for the paid version.
For those who wanted just a single line of notifications

How do I get this? I installed the apk in the OP, but I don't see this option. Under the "notifications" section, it has "Show" and then "Only show top 6".

It's a feature I coded after the alpha I published here.

I still don't have a number as I don't know how many people will buy it but for the moment you can donate and get the beta pro version.
Think there's a way to replace the default screen Date & Time Screen-Off Widget with yours when the main screen is off?
In the past, I have resorted to using battery percentage apps to get realtime charge levels during screen-off. I'd love to streamline that, using your app; which clearly has the potential to replace the default widgets.
