So, basically I'm trying to edit the icons in my status bar (Battery, WiFI, Clock, etc) and soft keys. (Back, menu, search, etc) to reflect Honeycomb. I know it can be done, just look at the various themes and especially the 'Nookiecomb' ROM. I've been trying to do this myself, but have no idea where to begin, nor do I wish to ask someone who has worked so hard to create something, 'Nookiecomb', how I can rape it of its settings/icons/etc for the status bar items.
Any advice or direction of the path I need travel?

I'm wondering if it's possible to add some custom actions to ICS softkey bar... On my tablet would be nice to have next/prev/pause music always visible even in navigation mode with sigic or igo at full screen. Any hint?

found many hints to change color, but no to add custom functions...
I'm also interested in this.
I want to make the menu softkey persistent and tried editing SystemUI.apk (XML and Smali files) with no success.
Can someone help?
For a dedicated industrial app, which will be the only app the user should be using on this tablet (Samsung Galaxy tab 10.1", Android 3.2, rooted) I want to simplify the System Bar. All we need is the back and home buttons, along with maybe the battery and signal-strength indicators. We do not need (or want) the little up-arrow and its tray of apps, or the clock or notification bar or anything else.
How can I achieve this? The System Bar doesn't seem to have an API, unlike the Action Bar, which has its own class in Honeycomb. If I wanted to write my own minimalist System Bar what's the existing one called so I can delete it?
Thanks in advance!

Hi all.
Is it possible in SII to change status bar icons order. I want to have time on the left side etc.
Should I install some additional stuff ?
Thanks for help.
Some roms allow you to centre the clock or remove it via an additional menu in the settings.
Things like ROM control on aokp, TSM parts possibly J-Kay's mod.
Ive never seen the clock being moved to the other side though, not in all my android years.
I also wanted to move signal icon into the left one.
Now all the icons are on the right side and it doesn't look good.
I need to install cyanogenmod ?
I need to get rid of the system bar on Android 4.1 tablets since the tablets will be in a commercial/retail environment and be used for business. My app will be the only app used on the tablet and it needs as much screen real estate as possible for what we're trying to do. I have searched already and I see that there are ways to do it on a rooted tablet, however since this will be in a business and deployed to several hundred or thousand businesses, I cannot have all the tablets rooted for legal and security issues. (Would I really have issues legally though if I were to root them?)
I know that you can dim the status bar and make the buttons dots but that really isn't optimal.
If there is no way to get rid of it, is it possible to change the status bar icons and functionality? I ask this because our app has a status bar on top and we could possibly move it to the bottom and change the icons and functionality of the status bar to match the app's status bar so no screen real estate is lost.
I have read that 4.2 adds some fullscreen functionality for apps. Is this true? Can the status bar be hidden in 4.2 as opposed to 4.1?
You could get rid of statusbar
Add this attribute to activity declaration in manifest
android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen"

That just gets rid of the title bar for the app and the notification bar at the top. That does not get rid of the navigation bar at the bottom. I would like the navigation(system) bar to be gone.

I know but for un rooted dev this is the only thing that can be done
To completely remove statusbar del the Systemui.apk from system/app
To remove navigation bar at the bottom give me details of your dev and attach Systemui.apk and framework-res.apk they can be found in system/app and system/framework
But this can't be done without root
Press Thanx Button dude

Re: Getting rid of Status Bar on 4.1
Here's what I would do:
- Setup another Launcher (like Apex) to where 1) only one page, one icon (your app), and lock the homescreen from any changes, 2) make sure that when you press Menu, it performs a different action than giving you an option to access Settings, and 3) disabling the Status Bar in 'General'.
- Change the attribute in the Manifest file like sak-venom1997 suggested.
I'm pretty sure that doing this would give the user no option to change anything. Pretty sure.
Hi guys
I want to know is any stable way for change stock status bar of Emui change to iOS 11 Status bar without need Root premission?! If no and Root required ,can somebody help me to understand how can I change it under a simple way ?
I know we can use some applications like inotify or material status bar or something like them for change status bar style,but I need a way like theme editing but this one is different, because I want change positions of clock to center, signal bar to left even WiFi icon , just battery icon and Bluetooth and location stay left side
Thanks engineers if can help god bless you all ?
even most of themes with root will not help here unless you are on custom ROM and ROM does offer such changes of moving the clock, changing battery icon etc. You can use xposed module to exactly make the changes you described but you mentioned no root so bit difficult to achieve this requirement unless some dev come up but that will take the root as well.
find a theme... that will do the trick. Also on the playstore, there's an app you can use called Theme Factory for our phones... You can start from scratch and make your own theme or modify someone else's theme... It's fully featured so you can do anything with the theme engine that you want. Hope this helps!
