For CM7.1:
I would like to remove/disable the battery icons in the status bar. I know this involves some smali hacking, but I'm not sure where. I've found this guide for MIUI, but CM7.1 is not quite the same.
I looking for app, mod or tips how to hide ICS status bar while in webtop mode. I tried few apps but all doesn't work. Is there any solution to hide it while watching movie?
To avoid misunderstanding: I'm talking about ICS Webtop mode and status bar on the bottom, not ICS standard drop down notification bar.
Edit: IMO it's stupid to develop that kind of bar which takes about 5 - 10% of screen without possibility to hide it.
Edit: Mod is available:

The HTC One X had issues with games and movies showing on screen buttons while it was in a game/movie, much like the webtop mode does.
there was a patch released that fixed that

possibly could steal code from them to work for us?
also looks like deodexing is needed
I found soultion in this thread but it's about CM9, I'm not sure it is even possible to apply this to ICS

I used apktool to decompile android.policy.jar and system.apk but the problem is I can't find in decompiled android.policy,jar files to edit. In diff.txt I have some files with *.xml extension which I can find and also files with *.java extension and this files I coudn't locate. All files in decompiled android.policy folder looks different then those in diff.txt
I uploaded decompiled folders and I asking for help, what files should I edit. I'm not asking to do whole job as I want finally do something on my own.

Been trying to figure out what to edit in TW JB StatusUI.apk to make the backgrounds of the actual notifications themselves transparent. Tried editing a bunch of xmls, but I've only found values for the status bar, the notification dropdown background, and the categories and whatnot in the notification dropdown.
I suspect that the files I need to edit are some of the .9.png files in xhdpi, but I've also found that I can't edit or add any 9patch files without causing SystemUI.apk to fail to recompile, so I haven't been able to test those files. Probably just doing something wrong, there, as I've never messed with those files before.
Looking through the GS3 and GN2 question forums hasn't yielded much in the way of answers for this, so I'm just going to ask here. Any ideas?

I got my 9patch files working, still can't figure this out. I can make the status bar transparent, the notification dropdown windown transparent, the quick toggles transparent, but I just can't find what actually sets the background for the notifications themselves!
This is seriously causing me a massive headache. I've edited so many png files at this point that I think I'm losing my mind.
Hi there, willl this help?

Anyway I also want to know how did you make the statusbar transparent?
So i just started to customize my Streak, modifying the SystemUI.apk. So far I only managed to modify the notification bar/pull-down.
Some questions i couldn't solve myself, help would be appreciated:
As the lock screen is semi-transparent, my guess is that there could be a PNG-file for its bg. Where to find it to edit it, or am I totally wrong?
Also, where to change the other stuffs shown on the lock screen?
How does the battery icon in the notification bar work? It doesn't appear to be a set of PNG-files like the other objects in the notification bar.
Thanks for your help!
Here's another question:
After using apkmultitool to decompile SystemUI.apk, editing some hexcodes, then recompiling it again, I have no statusbar anymore!
What could be the problem?
Hey I'm running CM10.1 on my HTC One x. I was wondering how to remove the black shade ontop of the lockscreen background and just have your background clear and not darkened. I've been looking around framework-res and trying to edit stuff but had no luck, I have no experience in coding, just flashing custom roms and decompiling apks.
In CM7 there is an option to set an image as background for the lockscreen, check in the CM Settings, maybe you can do it.
Putting a custom image for your lockscreen doesn't remove the translucent black shade unfortunately.
Excuse me for reposting but I'm still wondering if anyone can help me with this, it seems like a pretty simple mod.
