I'm looking for an app can capture does on your screen to use for later use. Example: if I wanted my status bar to match my background the app would allow me to click or highlight the background to get the specific for to use for the status bar. Any ideas anyone?

For clarity-i attached a screen shot of my home page, are you asking if there's an app that fills in the black strip that is the status bar. You want the status bar to be the same as said back ground?

No that's not what I mean. For instance if I wanted my status bar to be the same color as one of your icons on your home screen how could I get the exact color for that?

Yea I don't know. I did do some googleing around for my own pleasure and I came up with a few old xda links. The links talked about changing status color but it was in frame work etc...way out of my league. I also looked thru play store and came up empty.

I do not know if this will help but there is an app called super status bar, not sure if it is still on the market but I believe that it is, and you can have your status bar look however you'd like. As far as having it the specific color of something else, you may just have to play around with colors as I've never heard of (but does not mean it does not exist) a program that can copy a color based off of a picture or background. Hope that helps. Best wishes

My phone has transparent issues. I'm running superclean 2.6. My icons are transparent but as soon as I set them up on my phone. It doesn't recognize it as transparent you can see the icon background . Even my notification drop down bar isn't transparent either. So I'm not sure if its the phone not detecting transparent or what. Please help.

Gonna need a little more info than that. What Theme are you running. The transparancy is determined by that.
I'm using launcher pro. You know how you can change the bottom dock icons? I've been using same set icons. Droid icons and on my x they were always transparent. Now I set this this phone it shows the icon background.

You mean like the icon background you see in touchwiz app drawer? Never seen that on launcherpro...

Yea. I'm not sure why my icon docks wont recognize it as transparent. I can see the icon I set up including the background black color. Wish I could link a pic.

This is just sorta a little tip that i found...its not completely black...but close to it
1. Go into settings, and display
2. Make sure the display mode is set to standard
3. Uncheck the box that says analyze LCD brightness.
Thats it...colors should be more dark now and the status bar is not that annoying gray!!!
Aaarrgghhh my eyes!
The grey background of the settings window got so bright when I unchecked the box, it actually hurt my eyes.
I had a tf101 before the tab and I actually prefer the look of the touchwiz stuff to stock HC, but I might just be weird...

Yeah then you won't get market updates....then that turn into more problems where the market becomes unusable...its fine until the market apk has an update...trust me...might want to go back to 160.
Hi, I'm looking for an app that will allows me to see the current weather condition in the status bar. I'm looking for one that will show the weather as an image.
Or can this done in the ROM since I'm running Hydrogen ICS?
Thanks.
My Cast weather shows the local temperature in the status bar. The app and widget shows very good info.

Thanks, but i'm looking for one that will show an image like the sun, clouds, Rain, etc. That one just shows the number.
You do realize that the status bar is only a few pixels thick?? what more information do you want stuffed in there?? or are you talking about the lockscreen?
Try this - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gimym.software.weatherstatusbar&hl=en
I haven't tried it and it ain't free too.

Hey everybody can someone please tell me how to change the background in the sms app.
I'm asking for a friend and I don't have the phone with me to pay with to help him so I have no idea.
Thanks all
Open the sms app, settings, background style, the different backgrounds available show at the bottom, you can scroll all the way to the right and click on the last one (black square with + in it) to pick a background from your files or take a picture

I like color in high def theme but the clock got numbers i tried putting stock battery with that there but it took away theme settings didn't hide or get rid of clock with percrntage just added more numbers on the side i recall on the evo 4g lte they had a hack to where you can hide the battery all together i rather do that and use miui bar for battery. I stalled the bar but battery still present.
