Your transparent status bar is inside the SystemUI.apk currently on the ROM you are on. When flashing this MOD, it replaces your SystemUI.apk file with a stock one with the GPS reticle removed (no transparent status bar)
What would need to be done for yall to keep the transparent status bar is to pull your current SystemUI.apk and then modify that file with the smali tweaks to remove the GPS reticle and then push that file back onto your phone.
sorry if I'm not too clear on it

If you run the transparent mod on (Rom)(12.5.12) UKB DNA 1.0.0 you lose the advanced power menu and system goes straight to reboot on long press power button. If anyone is taking requests I'd like to incorporate the GPS removal in this thread combined with transparent status bar and battery % icon mod to work with the UKB Rom or at minimum combine the GPS icon removal with a battery percentage. If you could make the top bar transparent even better.

Hey all,
This is a black notification bar for Dj Steves froyo 1.0 only and blue wifi icon as the stock is black. Will need root and root explorer or alt file explorer.
1. Download notificationbar1.0.zip.
2. Extract services.jar and framework-res.apk from zip to SDCARD.
3. Backup current framework-res.apk and services.jar in /system/framework.
4. Mount /system/framework as RW, and copy services.jar then framework-res.apk from step 2 into the folder.
5. After file copies, phone will reboot and you will have black notification bar and new wifi icons and white text!
To restore old services.jar and framework-res.apk, simply perform same steps except copy over the backed up files.

I actually switched to Launcher pro. Lot more options and I like the interface alot more than AWD.
The other part is changing density on the screen back to 160. This is in the build.prop and need to change the line ro.sf.lcd_density=160.
Nice work mate keep it going
Ok as promised I have added white font to the notification bar. Right now when you receive a text or plugin usb the message is in black font. I set it to white but some other file is overriding. I'll post another update when I have it settled.
I'm going to try this now, thanks.

I am running the first update-new, old base band. The thing is though, the two files should have no effect on flash. Tonight I am going to be installing the update-newv2 and will see what difference that makes. DJ_Steve has not added flash into the rom nor has he modified either framework-res.apk or services.jar.
So in your words "just says install latest flash" and did you install flash again? Is it throwing an error when trying to reinstall flash?
i get a link to install flaelsh instead of the flash animation. I click it and it redirects me to the market place where strangely i have to log back into my google.mail. Then it just shows uninstall so i do that then reinstall it and still no flash.
Didnt think those files would effect flash until someone mentioned the same problem, both of us reverted back to the original files and everything ok again.
Have noticed after first boot when changing files all my widgets dont work straight away and orignal wallpaper etc is back. Also have to log back into google.mail sync etc.
Will have another go and reboot a few times to makes sure because i really like this mod
Edit: working now, rebooted after uninstall and bebooted after reinstall, great mod just need the bottom menu in black now to finish it off. Cheers for the help

I was poking around in there for based off another thread but this is the thread i am looking for thanks!
Also I was able to recreate the flash problem after updating to v2. It seems on Steve's new v2 that once reinstalled flash still dont work. So this problem only affects those on the new v2, anyone using the first update-new should be ok to reinstall flash and continue streaking. I will get this solved shortly and look into meltus' thread for the rest of the font color.
Interesting its working fine now on v2. Follow all the steps. Then copy over services.jar one more time and power cycle phone. also make sure system, and framework are mount RO after copying the files.
The culprit seems to be services.jar. For whatever reason it doesn't play nice with the new build.
I had some guys on irc test this. Both on v2, one guy had no problems with flash after following steps. Other guy had the flash problem. He fixed by uninstalling flash, reinstalling flash, reboot phone and testing flash again.
Thanks homeiss and egrouse for testing!
Awesome thanks, I had just finished moaning about the ugly taskbar in the Froyo beta when I found this. The taskbar looks great, just needs some work on getting the rest of the text white, and get the icons looking like a set. Though would be great if the whole pulldown was dark or grey to match if possible. Installed fine on my Streak, reinstalled flash from the market and all is good.
Really appreciate the work quikt.

I think it would work on GB but you would also need to change statusbar_background.png in systemui to a transparent image. I'm pretty sure the patcher only changes the smali edit and doesn't change the png.

First replace the background image in SystemUI.apk.
1. Open systemui with winrar.
2. Extract res/drawable-hdpi/statusbar_background.9.png and make it completely or semi transparent.
3. Drag the edited image into the winrar window overwriting the original.
4. Push it to the phone.
Second run the patch. Pulling, patching, and then finally flash the patched zip.
If there's also a statusbar_background.png (no .9) edit that one the same as the other.

When I run patcher.bat, I pull the files from my phone, then I try to enable statusbar transparency only and an error box pops up saying Windows cannot find 'temp/SytsemUI\smali\com\android\systemui\statusbar'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. On the command prompt window it says something like:
A subdirectory or file temp already exists.
A subdirectory or file temp\backup already exists.

The system cannot find the path specified.
Any ideas?
Edit: Never mind, a stupid mistake.
Doesn't work on GB. It kind of overlapped my current statusbar creating a sort of blur. But it doesn't make it transparent.

I'm running CM7 pre-beta and I'm using the MIUI theme. I ran the patcher.bat and selected transparent status bar only. I get my statusbar_patch and undo zips but when I install it I have no statusbar at all. And when I run the undo zip I still have no statusbar. What exactly did you guys do to get it to work? I installed the patch and uninstalled it several times already.
Try these, make sure the wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache also
Sometimes the notification bar is transparent for me and other times not. I flashed this patch with romracers cwm and seems to go smoothly. Any guesses? I have wiped cache, davlik cache numerous times.

Does anyone know if there's a mod available to make the status bar transparent on the Legend (CM7.1)?
I came across following site: uot.dakra.lt/kitchen but it looks quite complicated
1. Make backup of your SystemUI.apk (and SystemUI.odex if it is there)
2. Download file attached
3. Put that file (SystemUI.apk) into your /system/
4. Set permission to rw-r--r--
5. Delete SystemUI.odex if it is inside /system/app/
6. Copy/move and replace modded SystemUI.apk from step 3 into /system/app/
7. Reboot
Note:
1. I set the status bar background to grey colored when you pull down the statusbar to avoid the date overlapping with clock.
2. Notification icons will overlapped with centered clock when it is too many. Dont have much time to at least try to find a way to fix it. If you do have, please share.
Edit: Dont forget to do nandroid backup..
If you are looking for transparent status bar for 7.1..
You can always apply this.. TGF-Theme-Patcher-7.1-Final
Thanks for your replies!
I installed attached SystemUI.apk according to instructions. After reboot I had a black non-transparent status bar with centered clock.
TGF-Theme-Patcher-7.1-Final gave me a bootloop. Luckily I made a nandroid backup..

Black non-transparent statusbar is known issues with some launchers and there are several ways to resolve it.
One way is to use livewallpaer apps (the reason it become black is simply because your launcher didn't "draw" your wallpaper below that statusbar thus those apps resolve it such as walypyrus etc) but it takes very big memory.
If you use Go launcher, just enable the high quality drawing in preferences then restart your go launcher.
If use adw, it is the "wallpaper hack" setting.

Has anyone managed to make the status bar transparent for this version?
Transparent status bar on Legend (CM7)?
I still do not fully understand the issue with applying a transparent status bar.
This is what I have tried so far:
- UOT Kitchen: uploaded and patched my framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk using Status bar mod. Resulting zip file has been installed with ROM Manager. (Option to wipe Dalvik cache was checked.)
- tried out several CM7 themes that include transparent status bar
- installed and applied MultiPicture Live Wallpaper
Nothing worked so far.
I am currently using Cyanogenmod 7.2 Nightly of June 3rd.
Does a rom need to be 'deodexed' to be compatible with themes that contain a transparent status bar?
And why aren't all custom roms just compatible with themes that offer transparency in the first place??

You cannot just simply take systemui and framework and mod it bcoz our cm7 are odexed. You have to de-odex it first.
One simple way is just take the apk i attached previously, push it to /system/app/, set correct permission on it, then afterward it will depend on which launcher you use. Can confirm it worked in latest nightlies cm7.2 using go launcher with high quality draw option enabled.
From my lovely nokia N-Gage
thanks Feed,
I have installed your SytemUI.apk and set correct permissions.
I also installed Go Launcher with options "High quality drawing" and "Support transparent status bar" turned on.
I have tried several themes with transparency, but status bar is still black.
Digital clock is now in the middle of sb though.
What do I do wrong?
Did you delete SystemUI.odex after you replace SystemUI.apk with mine? You have to delete that file (SystemUI.odex), maybe that is the cause?
It works!! I must have forgotten to delete the .odex file. Thank you so much for all your help!
I can confirm it works with Cyanogenmod 7.2 Nightly from June 10th.
It looks great with the Alpha 7 theme: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1597008

Well, the simple version of explanation is, it is just the same case as when you install other apps (any apps) that is not odexed. .odex files containing some codes of the apps that is initial and will be loaded during certain stage during bootup thus make it faster for you to launch and run the apps. When you deodexed it, the process just combining/compressing/zipalining these two files (abc.apk & abc.odex) into single .apk file and basically everything inside it just pretty much the same as what is inside odexed apk version. Thats why it is still work even though all other apps is still odexed as your rom is not deodexed.
If you want to experimanting further, you can get some modded MDPI Mms.apk out there (that have conversation list of sms for example), copy and replace Mms.apk into your /system/app/ and delete the Mms.odex, then you can understand what i said.
Just can't get this to work
I deled the odex file, but the status bar is still black...
I use Go Launcher and I set the options: Hight Quality and Transparent Status Bar.
PS: I'm using CM 7.2 final
Are you sure your theme supports transparency?

1. Make backup of your SystemUI.apk (and SystemUI.odex if it is there)
2. Download file attached
3. Put that file (SystemUI.apk) into your /system/
4. Set permission to rw-r--r--
5. Delete SystemUI.odex if it is inside /system/app/
6. Copy/move and replace modded SystemUI.apk from step 3 into /system/app/
7. Reboot
Note:
1. I set the status bar background to grey colored when you pull down the statusbar to avoid the date overlapping with clock.
2. Notification icons will overlapped with centered clock when it is too many. Dont have much time to at least try to find a way to fix it. If you do have, please share.
Edit: Dont forget to do nandroid backup..

feed3 thank you very much for this.... very helpful. If it is possible could you upload a version of this that doesn't have a centered clock? I have tried to do it myself but because the CM7.2 nightly's are not deodexed I am having a hard time.
Please help me to remove big ugly icons or text (not sure) from rom status bar on Nougat. I have tried everything, Gravitybox, substratum etc.. . I can change network signal strenght, battery, wi-fi and every other icon on status bar, but I can't remove this ugly ugly ugly 4G. This rom has SystemUi Tuner, but there only have option to disable Cellular data icon, but that way it doesn't show signal strenght.
I have Vernee Mars with rooted stock rom Android 7.0.

These are on your drawable folder in SystemUI.apk. stat_sys_data_fully_connected_4g.xml, etc. Try changing the width and height to 0..0dip.

You didn't decompile your Systemui.apk properly. To make these edits you have to decompile, edit, then recompile it back.
Try flashing this for now and see if it works. Visit this thread for a tool to help with all that.

Make a backup first before flashing.

Sounds good. It is a tutorial mainly with decompiling and recompiling. If you will upload your SystemUI I'll take a look.

HUH! I DID IT!
I was not using TMA but only apktool, and I was using ES File explorer to extract framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk. But it's ok now. I was hating my phone because that ugly big useless icons.
Thanks Tulsadiver!

OHH NO! I've rebooted the phone and now it's all black, like there is no SystemUI.apk. What did I wrong? I decompiled, changed, recompiled, signed SystemUI.apk and put it back to it's folder. Initially it was working, but after restart...

You don't sign systemui.apk. you use the original meta-inf and Android.mainifest

OK. I have added original META-INF and AndroidManifest.xml to non-signed SystemUI.apk using 7-Zip, then created flashable zip using TMA, flashed it with TWRP, and now everything seems to be ok.
Thanks Tulsadiver.
please, can you upload the flashable zip you made for this?? I can"t get around TMA..
