Fun with the Notification bar - Streak 5 Themes and Apps

UPDATE Added blue background and blue Android text
and added All black background with original ICONs.
This is an extension of my last Framework.
OK folks, have a look and install if you like. I have been messing with the Notification bar.
Added the back ground to the notification bar.
Added Android to the Header of the notification bar.
Added Dell Streak to the footer
put a green background in the open space.
The ICON for WIFI is green when you have the best connection not blue.
The text does stretch when in landscape mode.
I have installed this with StreakMod so it should work for most everyone.
I will let the images do the talking.

sweet very nice!

Nice job, looks great! Dressed up my 345

If anyone want a specific color, tell me the binary for the color and I will give it a shot.

is this for rooted streaks only? Mine is not yet rooted.

I cannot answer that question straight up.
Are you able to install APK files? If so you might be able to use it.
Also, this was made from a custom ROM and I know it has been applied to 345 and worked.
Whatever you do, make a good backup first.

Any chance we can get the word Android in blue and the open space in blue (like the bluetooth symbol ue)???
Very much appreciated..

Great job !
Now some constructive criticism.
I loved most of the icons. The battery indicator somehow seems little more focussed on the percentage number. Would have been better if there were some kind of icon, with the percentage embedded into it, instead of a small icon (which somehow looks lost in comparison to the percentage number).
Also can we have the "Android" and "Dell Streak" markings removed ?
On top of all, what about all black notification bar ? I am sure it'd look a lot better than the current pattern we have. Or probably you can think of a color gradient instead.....will definitely give a more simple and subtle look.
BTW I am loving it on my 345. Would appreciate if you could either do the changes mentioned, or at least help me understand how to make those changes. Would love to see my streak the way I mentioned

Have a look at one of my other posts and I think evrything you want is there, I would just have to put a different battery for you. Either way I will try to cook something up for you.

Thanks man.
I checked your other creations and guess what, I still feel lost
First thing is that I am not sure how to roll back now.
Second thing is that I am not finding the perfect combo.
All I want is the all black (not even that shiny looking thing, jet black as with windows phone 7 kind of look.....just icons in black background), with possibly the new icons. But I am fine with the even the stock froyo icons.
If you easily can, I would appreciate if you could help me understand how to do all that or if you possibly can then would it be possible to get everything same as in stock and with only following changes:
1) All black notification bar (would somehow need to turn the clock/service provider name white otherwise both will get hidden in the black background)
2) The new icon set (excluding the batter icons, I am fine with the stock battery icon).
Thanks a lot again.

What you can do is locate the framework-res.apk file from the update you used to install your ROM and then install it. Not really sure how to go about it at this time. I am at work.

Yaar its better to get a screen protector. My friends Iphone 4's scratchless gorilla glass is currently full of scratches. Better to be safe. Get a good screen protector. I bought few from dcmugen. Both with matt finish and clear finish. Both are very good.

All of that should be fully compatible with our phones. It's just Desktop Visualizer with a custom wallpaper. It is really cool looking though.

Gotcha. Well definately not me . I don't really do artistic....my theming is more fundamental changes Tonic probably would have been your best option, but honestly I'm not sure if he's developing anymore or not.
Great find. Too bad I prefer portrait mode over landscape but this has inspired me to do something similar in portrait view.

That would be hot. Thats more or less what im looking for. The Vibrant is majorly a portrait phone, as for the Streak is a landscape phone. I was inquiring if an artist could make a walpaper (portrait style) for our phones so the same type scheming could be achieved.
Not to hijack the thread. But what's going on with tonic? His work was awesome.

What exactly are you wanting to do just make wallpapers like this? Or a pre made theme with everything set up?

It looks like they just changed the icons of the apps to be transparent then applied a wallpaper that already said the app names on it. I would love to do this but its tough to do without a Dell Streak. :/

My goal is to have a similar type wallpaper, several if I may, so that I could apply my own icons. (Transparent) and use just one home screen. But as you can see, these are huge and landscape.

I have a friend that is pretty good at photoshop and will give it a shot for me. The problem that I see on this though is you will not be able to have more than one screen to move between or non of the icons will line up when you move to an alternate screen. What apps do you want listed on it? Do you just want the wallpapers from the other thread formatted to fit the vibrant screen? Let me know so I can pass it on.

I wouldnt mind having only one home screen. So long as the general things are avaiable. (Dialer, Gmail, Market, Messaging, Web) a PLUS would be to also have a File Browser section and a Music section along wih a gallery. but these are not essential. The wallpapers from the other thread are landscape and not really for the vibrant. so to resize them would look odd. Anything original is ok. im not picky. i just thought it would be a good idea to introduce these to the vibrant.

Actually... not entirely accurate. You can use the MultiPicture Live Wallpaper from the Market (free), and assign a specific wallpaper to each screen. You can use the same basic wallpaper with different app text locations, or different ones. Once you set up the screens you want, then add the trans icons, and boom, multiple screens with the same basic idea as what the OP had in mind.

That's true I forgot about that live wallpaper. But I will give him the info and have him start working on them. Not sure how long it will take bit I'll put some pressure on him to not lolly gag around ;P. It might take a few days but I will post an update in a few days.

Modified Wallpapers

I was looking for something to work on to gain a little more experience with photoshop so I adjusted one of the wallpapers from Zedge or somewhere to fit my screen properly. I will be happy to modify others if you send me the file. Please include any specifications i.e. you want the main image to show below the clock or at the top or centered etc. Just find this image in gallery and set it as wallpaper after choosing the correct screen type it shouldn't need any cropping.
If this isn't useful just let me know and I'll remove the post. I've been using these awesome roms for a couple months now, and I'd like to make some sort of contribution to the group, and since none of these devs would likely have the amount of time needed to get me rolling making roms worth using I'll try this for now.
Thanks,
Matt
Neither this nor any other image was created by me originally. I just changed the shape of it. If I'm breaking a rule or modifying your work without permission just let me know and I'll remove the image/s

ZU - General Chat Thread

Hi all,
This is a thread where we can chat "all things Ultra" without going off topic in other threads. I'm an expert in going off topic (especially in the dev section), and i'm getting fairly sick of my own behavior, so i thought, why not create a casual thread where we can chat about every aspect of the Ultra without crashing a thread?
Rules:
- Stay on topic
- Talk about whatever you want as long as it is about your device. Rooting, flashing, questions etc.
So, i rooted my ZU yesterday and i'm very happy with it. I installed Xposed Frameworks and changed some DPIs around (i wanted Chrome in tablet mode etc.). Have you rooted your Ultra, or are you waiting? Or something totally different?
Rooted mine the day I bought it
Waiting for a recovery for .532, also a deodexed rom of this firmware. :3

Have you tried ParanoidAndroid or CM? I haven't yet, but i guess i'll flash one or both of them fairly soon, but i'm actually very pleased with the Sony ROM. It's stable (if we ignore the few bugs in it), i like the launcher, i love the Movie, Gallery and Music app (never ever thought that would be the case), and it's not heavily skinned like TW or the other trainwreck that is also known as LG.

Also, I couldn't agree more. Sony's UI is very pleasing indeed. To say, even my friends with S3s and S4s have flashed the ROMs with Sony's launcher.
I actually flashed the Sony launcher on my Note, but that felt.. wrong? So i went straight back to CM It's a different story now though! Did you get the dock bundled with your Ultra btw? What do you think of it? I wish it was a little heavier so i could just pull the Ultra out of it, but it's so light that i have to hold the dock when i pull it now. I guess i could open it and stuff it with something heavy (like lead?).

I guess I'll unlock the bootloader and root right away when my phone comes back from service.
I'm so desperate to have it back I went to a store today to see and try it and I brought with me a leaflet... :sad:
Anyway, I agree also, the Sony launcher is amongst the lightest I've seen, and it would be a burden to even install Nova or Go or something else.
AND, I was posting the same topic after reading your reply on the kernel one, so you got here first.
I'll share my sadness every single day my device is away, and worst of it is next week I'll receive the watch and SBH52, they'll throw them self out of the window when they'll see their present companion.......... The Mighty LG 2X............

I installed Nova three days ago. I have Prime, so i want to get my money's worth, but it doesn't look quite right? The app drawer looks normal, but the screen of the Ultra is so big, and the resolution is so high that the default app grid is set to 6x7 or something, which looks kind of ridiculous IMO. SO many icons! I changed it to something more normal like 5x6, but that looked absolutely ridiculous. I will choose Nova in the end, but i'm perfectly comfortable with Sony's launcher at this time, so i won't change it yet.

I guess marble would work too, yes. It would've been easy if i had marble floors, and had a piece left some place, but i have hardwood floors, and that won't cut it. I do however have a "piece" of lead, so that might work. I won't start with project Lead Dock today though, since i've had a couple of beers, and i've learned that it's not the smartest thing to start with a new project while having alcohol in my blood "Hey dude, that 1080 on roller skates looks easy! Hold my beer!"
Luvin the Ultra!! Had prime also but went back to stock. I had rooted it earlier on but went back.just waiting for a Rom that has some options for music. Had note 2 with Jedi x and was using voodoo sound..awesome app..i can get the volume up with headphones and keep it clear. hoping eventually something similar.

After 2 days on Sony Rom I was pleasantly surprised (had sgs3 gt9300 before xzu) Now on PA and for a 1st beta its very smooth and stable. One thing I will say is though, I cant shake the feeling that sound (eg music thru headphones) is not a sharp/clear on PA and the display isnt as crisp on PA either . Ive backed up my TA partition stuff so will go back and check at some stage.

Unbunk my alpha SM-G8508S

Ok, so I bought a SM-G8508S on craigslist. Seems like an interesting phone and I like the samsungs.
So, clearly the previous owner has messed around with it. A precursory search didnt seem to bring anything up. When I try and go into whats typically a download mode, I get "factory mode" in times new roman, and then the chinese/korean/etc menu I posted here. Can anyone tell me what exactly this is, and if there is an odin recovery for it?

Ok, so I bought a SM-G8508S on craigslist. Seems like an interesting phone and I like the samsungs.

So I'm wondering if I got one pulled over on me on this one.
The BOX says SM-G850F, but the sticker on the phone say G8508S. Also the IMEI on the sticker doesnt match the IMEI in the ROM. The software is also running like crap. Sad day, but glad I didnt pay too much.

what you have there is the fake Galaxy Alpha. you can see this to be convinced https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yEqYOdtecGM
if you have that phone, non of the methods that are posted here will help you and i would suggest that you don't mess with that phone unless you get clear instructions for that particular fake phone

After all this comolaining from you on every thread about Galaxy Alpha, i'm begining to think that you were flanked with a fake also. I'm still waiting for another single person to sexond your remarks (besides the screen tone).
I took a small magnifyuing glass the other day and tries to look for dots you mention on the screen and i had to be disapointed - couldn't find any, the images/text is so smooth

sorry about the typo. it seems it got you a bit nervous. it's a typo that you could easily guess from comPlaining. and i see what i'm typing i just don't use spell checker and sometimes things like that slip.
i don't think the display is so crappy as to have someone so mad about it. and for this issue, i suggest you open a polling/voting thread and collect the opinions of other people also. just because someone doesn't find it justifiable to reply to you back on that, doesn't mean they agree with you.
and no, i didn't CAPITO. if you like so much IPS screen, why do you even buy a Samsung device? i know that almost all their phones are with Amoled displays (i've had Amoled since Galaxy S2). everybody knows what are the pro's and con's of Amoled, and colors/tones being not to everybody's taste. i personally think this is why they have the dropped sales this year and i hope they understand this issue and change it

I thought screens in 2014 will be great without discussion ..
All reviews on internet says about it.. check..

I compared screen with my mate's S5 and he laughed at me ..
S5 has completely different type screen! white color is nicer colder .. like u see here

in Samsung Amoled devices there is an option called Screen Mode. did you check the different modes? i use Amoled Basic and i have decent colors/tones. i also turn off "Auto adjust screen tone" and "voila" i'm a happy and proud Galaxy Alpha owner. (voila is a french word used as a synonim to = here it is, unveiled.
however, i can say yo one more thing. i did have in my hands another Galaxy Alpha and did witness slightly different screen tones, however, the resolution was the same and quite OK for a 720p device

what do you mean ?
is more brighter,more density screen on Alpha I dont know what your setting are,but it`s obviously
http://www.samsung.com/cn/consumer/store-products/mobile-phones/product/SM-G8508ZWSCHC
SM-G8508S isn't a fake Alpha but it is the specific model for China market so what you see is the Chinese word.

This theme is based on the colors of Purple and Gold and it was requested by one of the members of my other thread. I hope you enjoy. My Lovely Wife came up with the name.

If anyone has suggestions about this theme or would like something added please feel free to ask. I will do my best to get it done.

Awesome job mash, you've really outdone yourself again. You've came along way since you started. Congrats on the new theme

Car Maintenance Issue
Here is shot of bars that are not clear.. Need to show bars graphically on how much time/miles is remaining. For example, for NEW TIRES: The horizontal bars should only extend to appx 37% out for miles remaining. (Time Remaining is also shown incorrectly) It shows as 100% all across not reflecting the actual percent graphically.
Im late to this party as well your a beast mash. I still remember the first app you themed for me..do you?lol
