For users that are not getting the "gallery" option when setting a backround in the "Messages" app, follow instructions below.
With a file manager, create a folder on the root of your virtual sdcard called ".data" the "." is important. (you may need to show hidden files in the settings of the file manager app to be able to creat files with a ".") Inside that folder create another folder called "message"
Done!

Some stock and rooted users are not getting the "gallery" option when setting a backround in the "Messages" app. Other apps like "Notes" are responsable for creating these folders so if you have debloated or haven't used them before you have to create them manualy.
oh okay. nice fix I'm sure those effected will be happy to see it. Maybe just give the OP a lil more detail

This will NOT change the color of your status bar. This will only add a transparent background to the drop down bar and place the Droid on the bottom right corner.
***Make sure USB Debugging is checked under Settings>Application>Development***
Here's how it's done:
1. Download & install Stericson's NinjaMorph from the Market
2. Place your desired Droid image on your SDcard and rename it to status_bar_background.png (doesn't matter where you put it)
3. Launch NinjaMorph and click tap on New Project
4. Go to /system/framework/twframework-res.apk (Files will get extracted and a backup is created automatically)
5. Go into /res/drawable-hdpi and find status_bar_background.png
6. Tap on the file and it will now ask you to find the image you want to replace it with
7. Find the file you placed on your SDcard and tap on it
8. You will get a warning asking if you're really sure you want to replace it (Tap Yes)
9. Tap on the blue arrow on the bottom right corner
10. Tap on Finish Project
11. Tap on twframework-resapk (NinjaMorph will now package/create the apk)
12. You will get a warning asking if you're sure you want to overwrite the apk (Tap Yes)
13. You will now get a warning asking if you want to zipalign (optional)
14. Tap ok on the next warning
15. Choose if you want to delete the project
Your phone should now reboot automatically and you should have your new Droid on your drop down notification bar that looks like this.

Thanks for sharing!
Looks great man, thanks for the mention. I'm about to flash now. Do you have a stock to revert?
eh I guess I can make a stock real quick...
I'm rocking the Green Android and it looks awesome. I've already shown it to a lot of the other Android Fans here at work, all are very impressed. Good job with everything man. Yeah, being able to revert is always nice rather than restoring a nandroid backup....
OP updated with revert..
im in the process of putting the finishing touches on a stock theme/template...
everything will be in it... that came stock anyway... and it will give those that want to start theming a little push in the right direction...
I will probably do a short demo of me morphing a bar from stock to crazy... start to finish
you sir are the man. If you do find time to do that, please make sure I know so I can add it to my sticky in the General section. That would help a ton, and lets be frank, the more people theming, the better for us all.
good job, this looks nice. I got the red and green
It did say the file doesn't exist so when I close it and go to existing to open the file there's nothing in it...trying to get the red one

looks great... thank you...
instructions for use:
open metamorph (MM)
click unzip extract new
(error occurs)
open MM
click pick existing
click Droid_xxx
click Droid_xxx
click Droid_xxx.xml
click close
click apply all
reboot after it finishes
When I click existing and then droid_red there are no files In it
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
check with a file explorer... if you can copy it into the root/directory of the theme it will be easier to find.. you're looking for Droid_Red.xml
if its not there redownload...
Just unzip the file then move the folder to the metamorph themes folder and select existing theme and click on the xm fileand apply all.
Yeah my comp double folders everything when it zips, or MM does it unzipping... IDK, it works if you apply manually by selecting the xml file..
Yeah I think this is breaking my market app. FC after downloading an app, reverting back to stock to double check. Will keep you posted.
^ no issues here, 3 updates and 2 new apps.
Try this.. Go to settings, applications, manage applications, market, uninstall updates and Clear data
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I reverted back to original with no prevail. I did a Nandroid and market is working again. I did have the ClearBar Metamorph isntalled as well as the Segemnted Green battery status icon isntalled. Not sure if a mixture of these things was the problem or if something just went wrong the first install.
I wills say a great mod for sure, looks great!
This may sound dumb, but would I be able to use morphs like these on my Captivate?
This is just a stock sense battery w/o the percentage. I only made this cause I worry about my phone battery A LOT and battery percentage makes it worse for me and I wondered if other people felt the same, so I'm sharing it here. It's really not much so don't criticize or talk crap about it. Just for those iffy people who HATE battery percentages. Enjoy!
Installation Process
- Unzip files into a folder called battery.
- Go into cmd enter " cd C:\AndroidSDK\tools "
- Then enter " adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk "
- Open the .apk file w/winRAR
- Go to res>drawable-hdpi
- Drag contents from the "Battery Folder" into drawable-hdpi
- Now, put framework-res.apk into SDK tools folder and " adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework "
- Enjoy

Hello everybody peeps, I had this in tylermaciaszek's theme thread, but decided to create my own thread as I think that we're headed in different directions. I will still be helping him and I hope he will still be helping me, but there you go.
This is a simple mod to the page indicator icons at the top of the home screen.
All you need for this is root explorer and a bit of file management know how.
1. Download your chosen launcher from the links below, rename to Launcher2.apk and then copy to your device.
2. Navigate to /System/app and rename Launcher2.apk to an appropriate backup name.
3. Copy the downloaded file to /System/app and change it's permissions to rw-r--r--
4. That's it, no re-boot necessary.
THIS WILL REVERT YOUR HOMESCREEN TO 5 BLANK PAGES
Your icons and folders should remain as they were.

hey thanks for the blank ones!
Yet another nice mod.... check
TIP.. take screenshots of your home screens BEFORE you do this!!! That way you can reset them up. If you fail to you can only revert back by putting back the stock app & even then you loose all Widgets.
I already have a couple more that I will be updating tomorrow.
Here's a couple quick pics I did in photoshop you could look into based off one of your TF line themes:
Just suggestions, I figure we might as well take advantage of the Transformer Prime name while it is still here.

when i tried updating my firmware with an OTA, it wouldnt let me until i reverted to the original launcher. would that make these mods incompatible with the new OTA's, or does it just mean the sumcheck failed and i can go right back to using this awesomesauce?
This works on the new ota just follow the steps like normal
Would this work on a deodexed rom?

No, but I will eventually get around to packaging them as zips for deodexed rom.
Ok so if i am on 9.4.2.13 and i lost my original file and it is the only thing preventing me from the ota does anyone have the original apk
I just noticed I seem to have lost this ... I guess maybe after the .15 update? I just reapplied
NOTE
this will kill your OTA .21 update and give you the red exclamation of death. So roll back to your original file first. Trust me, I know
I really did give it a try but It didn't work. I tried to change the icon from a file I pulled out of the Gingeritis Thunderbolt rom that I was using before I switched to the GN2. I just don't know enough about making these changes. Can anyone out there help?
I'd like the red and white icon to replace the plain grayish icon in the notification bar when I get new email (gmail).

+2 for this I would gladly donate
agree OP has made a great request
I'm running Beans stock deodexed
Does anyone at least have a link for a tutorial so I can give it another try?
sorry I can't help but I'm ready to donate if you can get it working
so what you want is that your email notification look like that?
Yes. But that opens another issue because notifications have a dark tint when you add color to them.

This is actually the image that resembles the current gmail icon used in the notification bar. With the envelope closed. I think the one with the envelope open is used in the app.

I take no responsibility for any harm that may come to your phone trying this.
You must be rooted for this to work
check out the links at the bottom on this post for ninjamorph stuff
****The new image must be the same size as the old image for this to work****
I was able to get the notification changed using ninjamorph and rootexplorer.
1. rename your image stat_notify_email.png
2. Open ninjamorph and start a new project.
3. go to data/app/com.google.android.gm-1.apk
4. When you click it, it should extract the folder.
5. On the next screen click copy it(lower right corner).
It should tell you where the copy was saved. For me it was on my phone storage in androidthemes/workspace
From there i went to rootexplorer( you could also do this part on your computer).
1. open androidthemes/workspace/com.google.android.gm-1.apk/res
2. Locate these file:
drawable-hdpi,
drawable-mdpi,
drawable-sw600dp-hdpi,
drawable-sw600dp-mdpi,
drawable-sw600dp-xhdpi,
drawable-xhdpi
3. This may just be an extra step but i went through each of these files and added .bak to the end of each original image so it looked like this: stat_notify_email.png.bak (this will keep the original as a backup in the folder).
4. Copy/paste the new image named stat_notify_email.png into each of these folders.
If you don't rename the files when you paste you will just replace the original.
5. Once you have placed the image in all the file you will go back to ninjamorph and click finish project.
6. Click the com.google.android.gm-1.apk
7. It will then create package
8. It will ask if you are sure you want to replace the .apk....click yes
9. It will ask if you want to optimize using zipalign...click yes
10. It will ask if you want to clean up/delete project...Click yes or no(up to you)
11. Once it is done, reboot phone and it should have the new notification icon but it will have a dark tint from the notification bar.
I have not done that much with ninjamorph so there probably is a shorter way to do all this.
Here are a couple links to using ninjamorph:

just look for "notification_panel_active_app_list_for_reset " and "notification_panel_active_app_list"
Also, may want to point out, you have to hold on the icon and drag to "Edit" to change what apps are listed in the toolbox. I always had a force close in the actual settings (when you go to your quick settings list and hold on the toolbox option).

The Mobile Data toggle is referenced in your screenshots; does this actually work? I attempted to do the "normal" SQLite edit that has worked on previous builds, but does not seem to work for the latest OC5 build. When doing so, my phone just hangs on the Sprint splash screen.
If you were able to get it working, can you please share how you did so?
