I installed the transparent pulldown and 5 bar signal mod for the new bamf sense 3 RC1. When I pulled down the status bar, I noticed it is a dark background with dark text so it is not legible. I looked at the files in the zip and saw that it was just systemUI.apk and framework-res.apk so i copied them out of the rom and pushed them to my phone via adb. I had many ill effects and had to copy my backup on to the phone.
Does anyone know a way to make the pull down text white so it is legible? or even get the regular pull down back so the black text can be seen. Please let me know.
This is an awesome rom. I have found zero flaws with the rom itself. Definitely my daily driver.

I switched back to Bionix 1.3.1 just because it does seem like the best ROM for the vibrant. I say best ported 2.2.1 rom for Vibrant is Simply Honey ;p.
I ported over, mostly, the Touch of Androdena theme that was for Simply Honey.
The only thing that I don't know how to change (xml files and such) is the font color in the pull down. Instead of white as it is on Simply Honey, it's black. You can still see the text but I'd like it to be white but eh don't know which xml changes that..
Oh and also the volume notifications (when you turn volume up or down) have a green bar... no idea how to change that.
Screenshots are pretty identical to the theme for Simply Honey aside from the aforementioned bugs above ;p.
The volume bar color should be progress_horizontal.xml under framework/res/drawable. Haven't tried it yet, but maybe replacing it with one that you know is blue might take care of it.

So I have BAMF SoaB v1.0 installed on my phone and am loving it, but I have 2 questions.
Where is the boot animation located on it, I want to change it I can not seem to find it,
And how can I get rid of where it says "son of a bliss" on the bottom of the notification screen, it is ugly imo.
Can't really remember where it was at on sob try system/media of you have root explorer just search boot and it will come up with the location. And far as changing theme hit up UOT kitchen and edit it or flash an empty one over it with kitchen.
Sent from my Thunderbolt using XDA App
General info of the boot animation location.
Sense ROMs: /system/customize/resource/
For Asop ROM: /system/media/
Not always BAMF forever has it in system/media
Sent from my Thunderbolt using XDA App
Yes. The correct sequence for above would be STOCK sense roms.
Ok, so i figured out the boot animation, it was in system/customize/resource/VZW_bootanimation.zip
But does anyone know the color and the transparancy level for the bottom bar?
anyone know the color and transparency?
Anyone know of a link for a stock battery icon? ???

Also I found out that when I switch skins the son of a bliss thing goes away. So is there anyway for me to install a stock sense 3.5 skin on there.

god.
For 1, I am not trying to slap them in the face, just the orange text in cursive font goes with nothing on the rom, If it actually matched everything else I would be fine with it there.
And 2, I know how to use kitchen, But I have no clue what the Color and transparency of it is.
3. Please show me another 3.5 rom

Does anybody know how to make the top status bar all black without having to use a skin or theme?
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk 2
You would have to pull your SystemUI.apk file from system/app/ and find the .png file in the /res/ folder that is used for the notification bar and then edit it to make it solid black, then save the changes, and push it back to the device.
There's no option anywhere to change the color of it.

Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk 2
Looking through the SystemUI.apk from the first ROM zip I could find on my computer (Virtuous 3.0.2 GSM), it could be one of the following:
notification_section_divider.9.png
notification_tab_off.9.png
notification_tab_on.9.png
status_bar_background_draw.png
status_bar_bg_title.png
But I've not tried to do something like this myself on any phone, though I've done some SystemUI.apk editting on my Prime tablet

Go here uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/
Just mess around with it. With it you can edit pretty much anything in systemUI. You will need to upload the systemUI, framework-res, and com.htc.resources apk's, and then it will create a flashable zip for you. Changing the status bar is one of the easiest features in it actually!
Edit: If you want me to do it for you just let me know what Rom you are on.

Open up the lidroid apk with 7zip or similar program pull out the drawable-hdpi folder.Leave the Lidroid.apk open on your desktop. Color the images to your liking. Then drag the folder back to the open lidroid.apk on your desktop.Close apk.Push to phone. PROFIT!

You could pull it apart, decompile the apks, change the color of the images, and recompile, and you'll have to for each new color you want. It's a decent bit of work but probably the only way you're going to get it unless you talk to the person who makes it and convince them to make another color for you.

Understood. I was hoping someone could also point out the exact file/apk that I would need to mod and hopefully it would be as easy as doing a replace all for the color code I want to replace... which I see bigfau provided (lidroid apk)
What about the icons in the notification area? Battery, signal strength, and etc?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
Your right, no worries.
No, I didn't by chance happen to see bigfau's post before I got mine in, as he beat me to the punch and slipped in while I was typing mine.
Besides, even though he replied just before me, is there a problem with me providing similar information? If anything, two people telling the OP essentially the same thing will further reassure the OP and give him more confidence to try his own hand at theming.
And what does pointing me to his ROM thread have to do with my post? I'm well aware of the development going on for our phones.

So I read here that if you are using a mod to change stuff, you can't further update those same mods from the ROM (which might help explain why I have been unsuccessful). So I went into the "15 Toggle.zip" I am using and tried to swap out some PNGs from the "drawable-hdpi" and got a "Not Implemented" error from 7zip... what's up with that?
Not sure if it matters but the PNG's I am trying to swap are not those 9.PNGs... I can't even open those to see what they look like. Something about unsupported compression method...
I think its because you need to decompile the apks, swap out your images, then recompile. It's what you have to do for standard theming, so it should be the same for what you want to do.

hmmm, read somewhere else you only needed to decompile if you were doing stuff to data, like changing values or code in XML files. There are folders within the apk that I can copy to without problem (although expected changes have yet to take effect). Guess it wouldn't hurt to de/recompile and see what happens.
Something else I noticed is that for the "15 Toggle.zips" that don't change the status bar icons, I can swap the status bar images np. But when I run the .zip in CWM, none of my changes take effect. But if I try to change the status bar icons of a "15 Toggles.zip" that I know changes the status bar icons (like bigfau's green 15 toggle mod), I get the "Not Implemented' error.
While I know swapping using 7zip works for some stuff, you're going to run into trouble with .9's and like you've said, xmls, but if you take the little bit of extra time to just decompile and recompile all of the changes will work. In my opinion, its worth the two extra minutes just to not have to deal with the hassle of guessing if something will work or not.

Thanks For The Instructions
I just want to say thank you to all those who have provided information in this thread. With the guidance given I was able to change the color of the toggles from the available purple/green/cyan to what I wanted a teal green and a white version. I only changed the toggle colors nothing else in the notification icons but I feel awesome about it being my first try at anything like this. Both the teal and white look great! I just extracted the images and recolored with gimp then repacked the zip. So thanks! :good:

P.S. If anyone wants the teal or white version PM me and I can send you them!
Edit Battery Color
BlackZenith and I figured out how to change the color of the battery and other icons in the notification bar, you must edit the drawable-xhdpi (note the x :laugh for the images to change from the SystemUI.apk file. Just letting you all know in case you are having trouble with that aspect. I was editing the drawable-hdpi folder at first and when flashed nothing changed.

Hi, guys
How can I adapt the 15 toogles from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1677245 (The one that says stock) to our version of our Notes. I tried flashing it and works but I like to see the 4G and 4g Lte icons in the top screen. Thanks.
This is a transparent notification/status bar mod that includes the accurate honeycomb style battery mod!] This Mod will NOT bork your power menu
Repackaged these mods because they were causing issues for UKB users. It previously modified frameworkres, I have completely removed the frameworkres mods from the zips and repackaged/signed. Should work on any deoodex rom I have personally seen them work on odex as well.
