Yesterday I installed this rom (from the dev. forum)
CM7.2 Rom Mash up- Official & Unofficial Sedan Class(Super Fast, Ultra Stable)
It's working great, but i have a problem. I wanted to reply to the original thread, but it was closed and i haven't got permissions to start a new thread there, so i posted my question here.
The problem is that the notification overlay (the thing you pull down from the top in android homescreen) is transparent. Too transparent. It's difficult to read any of the notifications. I perused all the adw settings, the android settings, the cwm settings and even spare parts, but cannot find a setting to turn off or reduce the transparency.
Is there a setting for the transparency of the notification overlay, or failing that, an app i could use to override the default notification overlay?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
- pilot
There is no setting as such. U have to ask the developer of the rom to give you a patch that will disable the transparency!

The only thing I know is yo modify your SystemUI.apk with apk manager . I don't know the exact steps .

Yup, you'll have to find and replace the image files. Contact Seilent or search for the tutorial in section "Android Themes"
OK thnx you guys. Gonna do some more searching.
You have to do this manually. Open your systemui.apk with winrar. Open drawable-mdpi and you will find your current pulldown menu buttons. Just replace these files with what you like and also make sure that file names match.
Hey SGAce, i perfectly didnt understand your question. Do you just want to change the icons pngs or do you want to change their functions itself? Changing icons png has been expained before by other users but if you want to change functions of these, its a tedious job with editing xmls and resources and etc. It is a lot better to wait for the nightlies of CM7 lol
THNX y'all,
i did it, i managed to change the button png's. Afterall it was a STUPID and unnesessary question, coz i did this with a few other apk's before
Sorry, this thread can be closed.
Cheers.
just use 7-zip

Hello I saw on a friend's phone (LG Optimus, Android 2.3.7 based rom) a special notification menu (the one you activate by sliding from top to bottom): it was white and composed of 2 parts, one for notifications and the other window/part for switches (like wifi, gps, sound...). Have you got any idea what was named and if there is a possibility to install on my ACE? (stock based 2.3.6 ROM) It was awesome and it will help me a lot
Thanks a lot!

Do you mean this menu: http://www.tracyandmatt.co.uk/blogs...alaxy-ace-review_cd56/notification-tray_2.png ? This menu is in stock ROM
or this??
from HTC sensation and HTC Droid Incredible
UOT Kitchen has got this feature, but in CM 7,2 isnt this menu style...

Nope. Miui won't run on HTC Hero which has ARMv6 CPU. It's just really heavily themed CM7
I'm gonna try replacing some apks on CM 7.2 and/or 7.1 on my Ace tomorrow. ;-)

Edit 19:32 (GMT+1), 03.02.2012:
LiGux settings apk works fine when installed as normal apk (pushing it to /system/app/ should also work) but it just has links to Android's Settings.apk
Replacing SystemUI.apk/CMParts.apk/framework-res.apk/framework.jar (CM7.2 RC0 upd. 23.01) makes phone not bootable or breaks statusbar. I don't have any idea why (because I'm not into making android apps and porting them ). BUT if someone knows how it shouldn't be difficult to port since LiGux is also a CM7.2 build.
The better solution for ur question is UOT kitchen... U can check the status bar section and move to quick settings tab.. I never tested it.. Hope it might work...
hello! i am new to forum so i thought i could greet u all first
i have a kind of a problem..i use gingerdx v022 rom, and it's great, fast and stable..there are 2 themes in theme chooser as soon as u flash the rom, a-theme and system theme..so i like some stuff from each and i was wondering if it is possible to kind of mix them toegether into 1 theme..e.g. i'd like the status and notification bars from a-theme, and font size, and settings menu icons from system theme..how would i do that?
thanks in advance, and i hope i made myself clear!

if you want to get original xperia icons
you may use the xperia arc theme from market...
and about editing the theme
first get root explorer
now with the help of root explorer open the theme apk (dont click on install)
now you will see some folders
different icons and backgrounds may be found in the "res" folder..
do not forget to press thanks if i helped
yes and the system and A-theme may be found in system/apps
you may edit them from there....

There is an app that basically does the same thing:

WOW Great!! Thanks ^^
I use that and it's ace but I find it often 'slips' down the notifications list. Is there some trick to making it stay at the top?

It does that occasionally for me too. Guess that's the downside of it being an app instead of systemui mod. But at least it works.
Also if you want the gps / nfc to be direct toggles and you have root. Make a system app of it: http://vps201.fra05-inx03.webhod.de/thomas/j4velin_development/dl-root.php?app=nt
/edit: in the settings of the app there is a toggle "display in the on-going no notifications section". Seem like if you uncheck it, it will be moved back to the top.
It looks pretty nice too. The CM9 icons you can download from within the app fit the xps theme pretty well:
Yeah I have it as a system app and use the CM icons.

That doesn't seem to make any difference for me. It still drops below most new notifications. Ah well, it'll do until some modded SystemUI's start to appear.
I'm working on it but i dosen't loads becose of the odex file when somebody wil deodex the room i have it ready!

I have most the firmware deodexed already to do notification toggles plus do power button restart / reboot to cwm.
I can upload the deodexed framework/res and android.policy jars when I get home so we can do the above.
Having trouble deodexing qcrilhook.odex tho.
Edit: These are NOT pre-modded, just stock ready for your modding pleasure.
Deodexed the following:
-android.policy.jar
-framework-res.apk
-framework.jar
-SystemUI.apk

thanks mate but pls can u upload them to box or something else the framework res are damaged i really need them!
---------EDIT---------
the SystemUI.apk is damaged to!
to be sure upload them all on external site pls
Another great app for showing toggles in the notification area is Power Controls: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.painless.pc
Unlike Notification toggle, it DOES stay above other notifications. Pretty awesome all round.

Does not support Reboot and Shutdown, so: no
If you're just looking for an app to add notification widgets I use "elixir 2" it does this and more, I've just got resource monitoring activated temp, cpu, mem, sdcard, internal etc on the notification bar but u can add buttons and apps etc also.
But I think we want the real deal ;-)

Am I the only one who can't compile SystemUI whiteout it getting 'bad'. After I push it to the phone and reboot it doesn't work (gone). Even when I do not change anything (only decompile and recompile), it doesn't work.. Had the same problem when I deodexed it myself. :/

same problem here! but i have an idea, i cannot test because i'm at work! since SystemUI.apk is framework dependent we must deodex the framework files first ! if you have some time to test let me know if it works!
and sorry for my poor english hope you understand me!

There are a few good tutorials about I use:

I suspect you'll need the SemcGenericUxpRes.apk framework file as dependency when decompiling.

Hey all,
i'm owner of a S3 for about 2 weeks now. I've read a lot of stuff in this forum and a few others and im just asking here for
stuff that i couldn't figure out by myself or find in an existing thread.
My phone is rooted and it runs Crdroid 7.1.
Now my phone fits almost all my needs, all i want is to change the status bar because i really dont like this blue.
When i did run CM10 i installed a theme but in Crdroid there is no such "Theme" section in the options.
So what are the best ways to change it?
Translucent status bar + center clock + another Battery icon are already installed since it comes with the AROMA installer of Crdroid.
And is there a way to get rid of "this blue" everywhere in the UI besides the status bar?
Thank you very much in advance
