Hello,
I want to create a rom and in it I want to change the status bar only on the homescreen to 100% transparent.
I have seen this thread but on my SystemUI.apk there isn't this file: /SystemUI/res/layout/tw_super_status_bar.xml.
Btw: I'm using a 4.2 Leak-based Rom.
so do you know how to decompile apks?

Hey guys,
I am customizing ICS LP8 Rom. Any one know how what I need to edit in "framework-res.apk" to make the drop down notification background from status bar transparent??
Tks
I think you want twframework-res.apk, not framework-res.apk.
After decompiling, look in twframework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi for status_bar_item_background_normal.9.png.
Sorry, actually, I think it's in SystemUI.apk? I can't remember... but the file name is still status_bar_item_background_normal.9.png, I believe.
EDIT: Boy, I'm rusty.
Should be in framework-res.apk after all: /res/drawable-hdpi/status_bar_background.png.

Ok, I was looking at an old project when I de-compiled framework-res.apk to mod my battery icon. Could be out-dated and wrong... give me a sec.
EDIT: hold on, actually. Are you on odexed stock? Because I am.... and it could be different for you if you are deodexed, or running a custom ROM.
EDIT 2: ok, I've downloaded my (stock, odexed) framework-res.apk, twframework-res.apk, and SystemUI.apk. I found my notification background in both framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk, both in /res/drawable-hdpi, both named status_bar_background.png. I'm not sure which one it is though.

Hmm... then I'm guessing it would be in your SystemUI.apk. Check there. Decompile, look in /res/drawable-hdpi for all the images starting with "status_bar...".
If you don't find it there, look in the same location, same criteria, in framework-res.apk.
How do i customize the SystemUI.apk I found a couple of battery icons i would like to test out????
Thx

You can use an existing mod (here) and replace the icons in SystemUI.apk/res/drawable-xhdpi.

Hi
Thanks for the advice, I have managed to decompile, edit & recompile a modded apk. There is one problem though, The battery icon seems to default back to the previous icon & returns when i reboot?. I believe there is some sort of fix for this when running ICS???
Please someone tell me how to add Toggles in Status Bar by editing SystemUI.apk
I know how to decompile apk and all different stuff just need to know what changes are to be done inside SystemUI.apk :crying:

You need to decompile the SystemUI.apk and edit two xml files to the ones indicated in red in the lines shown below, basically change #FF000000 to #00000000
1 res / layout / tw_super_status_bar.xml
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.StatusBarWindowView android:background="#00000000" android:focusable="true" android:fitsSystemWindows="true" android:descendantFocusability="afterDescendants"
2. res / values / drawables.xml
<item type="drawable" name="status_bar_background">#00000000</item>
Save the two files and compile the apk and flash back to your phone
You only need to flash the two files 1 is the TW-Super_Status_Bar.xml and 2 is the Resources.arsc not the whole apk, just extract the files from the compiled apk to the same file location using a flashable zip like vrtheme.
1. goes in the res / layout folder
2. goes in the SystemUI.apk folder (the same location as the res folder not in the res folder)
If it does not appear to work on the lock screen go to live wallpapers and set any live wallpaper as your home and lock screen then it should work.

To make it transparent
1- Decompile SystemUI.apk.
2- Open res\layout\status_bar.xml
3- There you will see a value like android:background=FF000000
4- To make it translucent type 5F000000 instead of FF000000 or to make it full transparent type 000000
Done:good:

For changing the contacts,phone and setting you have to decompile them only.
For ex- changing the contacts icon
1.Decompile the apk
2.go to res/mipmap-xdpi/
3.there you will see the the icons
4.change them :good:
