So I am trying to get a transparent Rosie dock going for my BAMF 2.4.1 install but it isn't turning out well. I replaced the necessary files but the button backgrounds still aren't transparent. Are there any other locations for these images besides the HTC framework apk? Here is a screen shot so you can see whats going on.

the images are all in rosie.apk and com.htc.resources.apk
Any reason why they wouldn't be transparent then?
Thanks for the help man

Forgot to mention I did edit Rosie apk as well. Still no transparency for button backgrounds

Wassup guys?!?
As you may know, the Wildfire has a low-res screen - with a relatively small number of pixels/inch (pixel density) - this is called low density or LDPI. However, CM7 currently uses MDPI resources - which are higher-res and are made for screens with higher pixel density.
So why should this bother you? Because these images are scaled down by the system to fit our screen - and they lose their sharpness and goodness as intended by Google, and the result is... yucky. Gradients get choppy and weird unintended colours pop up. And, the icons are small enough that due to our low pixel density, they use very few pixels and are washed out and ugly.
That's where this theme comes in. It turns out, AOSP has complete LDPI support for the main framework, so I ported those resources and resized/cropped/edited SystemUI resources to better fit our screen. Also, the icons are larger and easier/more pleasant to see on our low-res screen. Gradients are now how they were always meant to be - a smooth transition from one colour to another.
Download here.
Enjoy LDPI goodness. I doubt you won't like this if you're a fan of stock gingerbread.
What's themed
-Entire framework (dialogs, spinners, buttons, backgrounds, etc)
-Status bar icons and notification dropdown
-Settings icons
-Smooth indeterminate progress bars (stock is so choppy)
-Battery percentage / supercircle mod (separate versions)
To Install
Install apk file like normal from a file manager.
Open theme manager. Choose the one with the screenshot below for the preview, and hit Apply and then Apply anyway.

Not only icons, I ported the ldpi framework from AOSP and I'm in the process of ldpi-izing SystemUI.
That means pretty much anything with a gradient looks waaaay better now.

didn't they say that a long time ago. lol
and ALSO why not make your own theme instead of complaining? And if you can't you can at least say your 'requests/suggestions' in a nice way, what you did was sooooooo demanding.
------------------------------------------------
@OP: thanks in advance for this.
When this theme is finished, it would be great if it is integrated in cm7 by default. is there a change?
EDIT:woow it is finished! Thank you!

is there an app for gingerbread that can change the transition animation for the homescreen on a sense based? I already know ADW can do it with in its own application but any other alternatives?
What are you looking for it to do and what are you running now?

If you use Mikshift there is a version for 3D Sense 3.0 rosie
If you use MikShifted-G I have a version released with the 3d Rosie and widgets, but if your still on mikshift 1.1(Froyo Build) then there are metamorphs you can use as some type of animations I just forget what all they do It's been a while since using them

I know the metamorph files that we used to use was for mikshift froyo im not sure if they will work on the MikShiftedG or not or if there is a carousel one for metamorph.you can check at themikmik under mishift themes and mods and see what they got and if they will work
Sent from my PG06100 using Tapatalk
yeah i visited the page but thats just for transistions i already use AnimMod for that. Im looking for animations for when i swipe my finger from left to right on the dock pages??
Strapped already said it. He has a rom on themikmik with the 3D carousel rosie.apk just wipe and flash his
There's one called android animation changer check it out. It should be free in the market

Following this request by coupetastic-droid, I've made the mod attached.
Thanks to this reference by Paul627g, that helped me to avoid testing phase (I initially made the mod by attempting to shrink the clock area to 0 width, but it didn't work so well - and then found the mentioned reference).
The mods were made for:
Virtuous Unity 1.29 and below
Virtuous Unity 2.35 and above (can most probably be flashed on 2.33 BETA as well)
Virtuous Doubleshot 1.1.5
Sense 3.5 R_type 1.0 (Runnymede)
You can attempt to flash this on other Gingerbread Sense ROMs, but remember to back up the ROM and restore if the mod doesn't work.
oh yeah! this is going to make the status bar much more cleaner. specially when other mods are added. ill post screenies of mine later.
all I need now is the 4g icon that I still can't get to work with the transperant pulldown.

Is this supposed to make the pull down transparent? Cause it would not do it for me?

This mod only removes the clock in status bar as stated in op.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
Is thr a way to backup-restore d original clock?
Copy your /system/app/SystemUI.apk and save it somewhere, place it back in /system/app/ if you want the clock back.
Jack, is it possible to get this mod updated for bliss and runnymede?
I'm running rafy's runnymede rom and would like to remove the clock out of this one as well.

Please upload me the SystemUI.apk, or point me to the ROM download. Thanks.

First post updated with your request. Please test and reply.
sorry jack. that broke my status bar.
heres my systemui.apk if it helps better.
Sorry, got the same results. Looks like I can't decompile the APK properly - apktool shows warnings, that are probably the reason for the failure you saw.

oh haha I didn't even realize this was your thread, the same person that messaged me. But maybe so you could get exactly what you want you could try out the UOT Kitchen.
Just wondering if someone can extract the default sense clock for me. I applied a jelly bean theme and I can't see the clock because it was made transparent. Any help would be awesome!
I attached a picture so you guys can see what I mean

Change the theme back... That is the stock clock, just themed. Change back to the stock theme, or find a way to edit the theme your using. Those are the only 2 options.

Was hoping you wouldn't say that lol
I haven't themed or made my own ROM since the OG Evo days, never get the time anymore!
I guess its time to bring out Ubuntu again
Thanks anyway!
