can i have the stock eb01 notification bar for use on superclean?
As far as I know you can't change the bar but you can change the quick panel back to the touchwiz panel. If there is a way to change the bar I'd like to know about it as well.

It's been posted under a couple of names but a search for tw-res.zip should bring it up. You flash it in recovery and you will get the original gray and green quick panel.
I used it with SC until I started using a theme.

to change it yourself, you have to have some understanding of theming...its not particularly hard but that depends on what your want to do...the pulldown is resized in superclean, but swapping out status_bar_expanded.xml in the layout folder from a stock eb01 twframework-res.apk will size it the way it was stock.
or you could just pull a stock twframework (deodexed of course) and push/flash it if you dont want to do any of that
Can anyone change the height of status bar? Change it to smaller size? The factory setting is a big status bar in my phone , but i want it more slim? I have changed the color of the status bar , then can anyone tell how to modify the height?

If your rom supports transparent status bar's, then you would just have to make the unwanted portion transparent, then shift all of the status bar icons up that much to center them on the slimmer status bar. At least I believe that is all that would take, there may be a .xml file somewhere either in SystemUI.apk or framework-res.apk that has a dpi setting for it, making that smaller could also do the trick.
changing your screen density reduces the size of everything so can be used to have a reduced height status bar. their are apps on the market for changing this.
Look up LCD Density Changer in the marketplace.

I know there is an Xposed module for this. Problem is I forgot what it is called... It lets you set different dpi's for any app including the status bar.
Forgot the name...
Sorry, but I still wish you a nice day!

This is called appopsxposed but how do you mess with the status bar?

I feel you must decompile framework-res.apk
Go to res/values/dimens.xml . open it with notepad++

If you mean to say about "dimension editor", I see that the app doesn't actually do the thing. I have modified something and that the icons size doesn't change. Only the height is reduces thereby leaving me unable to read the status bar icons.
Can you please suggest an alternative way to do that.
FYI, I am using eclipse v9 rom on samsung galaxy note 2(n7100).

Dude and this can change the status bar dimension??
How would I go about changing the color of the "15 toggle" mod myself?
What color did you want? There's blue, purple, and green.
I know what colors there are lol. Off the top of my head I can think of 140+ other colors I'd might like to have...

Open up the lidroid apk with 7zip or similar program pull out the drawable-hdpi folder.Leave the Lidroid.apk open on your desktop. Color the images to your liking. Then drag the folder back to the open lidroid.apk on your desktop.Close apk.Push to phone. PROFIT!

You could pull it apart, decompile the apks, change the color of the images, and recompile, and you'll have to for each new color you want. It's a decent bit of work but probably the only way you're going to get it unless you talk to the person who makes it and convince them to make another color for you.

Understood. I was hoping someone could also point out the exact file/apk that I would need to mod and hopefully it would be as easy as doing a replace all for the color code I want to replace... which I see bigfau provided (lidroid apk)
What about the icons in the notification area? Battery, signal strength, and etc?

Your right, no worries.
No, I didn't by chance happen to see bigfau's post before I got mine in, as he beat me to the punch and slipped in while I was typing mine.
Besides, even though he replied just before me, is there a problem with me providing similar information? If anything, two people telling the OP essentially the same thing will further reassure the OP and give him more confidence to try his own hand at theming.
And what does pointing me to his ROM thread have to do with my post? I'm well aware of the development going on for our phones.

So I read here that if you are using a mod to change stuff, you can't further update those same mods from the ROM (which might help explain why I have been unsuccessful). So I went into the "15 Toggle.zip" I am using and tried to swap out some PNGs from the "drawable-hdpi" and got a "Not Implemented" error from 7zip... what's up with that?
Not sure if it matters but the PNG's I am trying to swap are not those 9.PNGs... I can't even open those to see what they look like. Something about unsupported compression method...
I think its because you need to decompile the apks, swap out your images, then recompile. It's what you have to do for standard theming, so it should be the same for what you want to do.

hmmm, read somewhere else you only needed to decompile if you were doing stuff to data, like changing values or code in XML files. There are folders within the apk that I can copy to without problem (although expected changes have yet to take effect). Guess it wouldn't hurt to de/recompile and see what happens.
Something else I noticed is that for the "15 Toggle.zips" that don't change the status bar icons, I can swap the status bar images np. But when I run the .zip in CWM, none of my changes take effect. But if I try to change the status bar icons of a "15 Toggles.zip" that I know changes the status bar icons (like bigfau's green 15 toggle mod), I get the "Not Implemented' error.
While I know swapping using 7zip works for some stuff, you're going to run into trouble with .9's and like you've said, xmls, but if you take the little bit of extra time to just decompile and recompile all of the changes will work. In my opinion, its worth the two extra minutes just to not have to deal with the hassle of guessing if something will work or not.

Thanks For The Instructions
I just want to say thank you to all those who have provided information in this thread. With the guidance given I was able to change the color of the toggles from the available purple/green/cyan to what I wanted a teal green and a white version. I only changed the toggle colors nothing else in the notification icons but I feel awesome about it being my first try at anything like this. Both the teal and white look great! I just extracted the images and recolored with gimp then repacked the zip. So thanks! :good:

P.S. If anyone wants the teal or white version PM me and I can send you them!
Edit Battery Color
BlackZenith and I figured out how to change the color of the battery and other icons in the notification bar, you must edit the drawable-xhdpi (note the x :laugh for the images to change from the SystemUI.apk file. Just letting you all know in case you are having trouble with that aspect. I was editing the drawable-hdpi folder at first and when flashed nothing changed.

I think you may need to do the battery icons in the drawable-xhdpi folder in the Framework-res.apk also.

Hi, guys
How can I adapt the 15 toogles from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1677245 (The one that says stock) to our version of our Notes. I tried flashing it and works but I like to see the 4G and 4g Lte icons in the top screen. Thanks.
Hi, was wondering if I could have some help making the pull down notification menu semi transparent (50%) and the status bar or maybe some advice on how to do it and which files I need to edit. Yes I know other roms already to it, but none really to my liking. Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

The status bar is transparent stock. You should ask in the thread where they have the dropdowntrans, might have better luck that way.

spacecaker, first of all (that I knew) before changing the status bar sistemui with jb, had to have asked permission. I did not know. Secondly, I congratulate you, because your work is fantastic and I've done very happy with this status bar, I love it. I'm changing the png to customize my status bar. I want to give congratulations for your great work.
Well, I changed status bar png latest panel event with another color, and remains the same. No changes. I found as I said in framework.apk, but nothing changes. To which may be due? I'm desperate!
