Before I begin let me point out that i can't write a guide or answer technical questions, truthfully i don't know even know how I did it as I've tried that many different things over the last 2 days to get this to work my mind is a blur. I'm posting this here in the hope that someone smarter than me can pick it up and make this work properly for wildfire i.e move the status bar icons around and get a transparent bar as just moving the clock gave me a real headache. This is a screenshot of the central clock on my wildfire, I'm on cm7 nightly 177.

Here's a link to the original thread where I got the idea from all credits go to the guys over there....

Edit: there is a bug with it when you get a notification the clock remains where it is and the text crosses over, I think that's why the icons need switching around.
Also off topic but can anyone give me some links on how to use apktools apkmanager and adb as I was struggling a bit with this, its the first time I used them.

I was wondering.... after trying to edit about all the images in the contacts.apk i cannot find where the drop down/expanded background image for the call log is at? or maybe there is a seperate .xml edit needed to make it transparent.
the part I want to alter is in the red box, tryin to make it look like whats in the green box as far as the background transparency. this is the expanded contacts in the call log.
I have no idea where to look now.
would really appreciate your help .. thanks.

ok guys... I am still not having any luck with finding where this image is or if its an XML edit .. or both.
I have seen Themes here that have what I am looking for. So I know it can be done and someone has to know the answer.
I have messaged about all the themers here with absolutely no response from about 3/4 of them. The one did respond thought it was in the framework folder .. well I have edited about all the dark images and nothing. Unless i just completely missed it somehow....
I am really wanting to continue to move forward with this and maybe release it along with my other icons and transparent stuff .. but not in its current state as it is and lack of help with where stuff is from time to time.
IF ANYONE has ideas or knows where it is I would really appreciate it.
Can anyone help me??? I have been trying file after file and I cannot edit the background of the bar that says tmobile??? Any clues as to which file this is?

im sorry i didnt read the post correctly the first time so you can ignore the above.i make it transparent to get rid of it and im sure you can change the color by adjusting the hue and saturation in paint.net or adobe.if you use paint.net you can go to the bottom right and look for opacity or something close to that.that is the transparency adjustment if you didnt already know.its so easy just using winrar to move the images around.thats what ive found to be extremely easy.i definitly need to learn the correct way but that works for now.good luck my friend
I see the background image your talking about is already transparent. If you wanted to change it you can use the paint bucket and dump some on it then you'll be in a good position to manipulate the image to the way you want it
Sorry, guys, I searched improperly (forgot there was an Apps and Themes section lol). You can see the real screenshot thread here.
Hey, guys.
I searched around and found out that no one had created a homescreen thread yet. So here it is! Post a screenshot of your homescreen here, CM7 or not, and let us know how you made your homescreen look the way it does.
I'll start here:

I use Go Launcher, the tablet-tweaked ICS CM7 theme, Beautiful Widgets (Beautiful Superclock) with ICS theme, and Go Widgets (bookmark) with ICS Blue Glow theme.
I look forward to seeing how creative people are with their tablets.
It's in apps and themes.

I'm looking for a transparent Google Voice widget. I've searched high and low on XDA and the web and have probably tried 8 different apks that claim to be transparent but they don't work for me. I had one working on my Epic but the transparency doesn't show on the Note 2. I'm running Sprint stock LJC rooted. Any help would be appreciated, but please, don't post a link unless you've tried it and know it works. Thanks!
hmm,I might be able to help. Will look at it tonight, If you're ok with it being based off the one my sig

Here, just made this-- made it mostly transparent (since it contains text) to make it legible on most backgrounds.
FYI, the widget layout is different for the epic, which is why it wasn't showing up the same on the note.

I'm not sure if this is the best place to post this, but it's the only place that makes sense to post it even a little. Def couldn't post in Apps & Games... Anyway, I'm trying to do something pretty specific... I'm trying to eliminate my status bar all together and just have halo (if you're familiar with halo on PA roms) .. I have my battery stats in halo, my signal bars in halo and weather also... The only thing I'm missing is the clock. I'd like to be able to slide over to a clock in halo the same way I can access my battery stats with circle widget reborn... Does anyone know of an app that can put a clock up as a notification in the same manner as an app like power toggles or circle widget reborn?... I've tried looking but I don't think anyone has done that since there's already a clock in the notification drawer, but obviously that clock doesn't show up in halo.
Something like this if this helps you get the idea of what I'm looking for...
