[Guide](CM7) How to Remove the Brightness Slider from Notification Bar
If you're looking out for a way to Remove the Brightness Slider present in the Notification Bar of your ROM then you're at the right place. Following are the Steps to Remove it.
Required Files & Tools
01). apktool
02). SystemUI.apk & framework-res.apk from your ROM
03). A Flashable zip file
04). File Explorer in Phone
05). Little knowledge in Decompiling & Recompiling :silly:
You need framework-res.apk to decompile SystemUI.apk. Make sure you have your framework-res.apk & SystemUI.apk pulled out from Phone or ROM
- Install framework-res.apk
- Decompile SystemUI.apk
- Locate the file status_bar_expanded.xml from the decompiled SystemUI folder. It will be present in the folder SystemUI/res/layout
- Now look in for the below line and delete it
Code:
<include layout="@layout/qp_brightness" />
- Save the file & Recompile.
- You can later drag & drop the modified .xml file to the Original SystemUI.apk using Winrar or 7zip
- Finally, you can either use a flashable zip file to flash the SystemUI.apk on your phone or use any File Explorer (ES File Explorer or any) to move the SystemUI.apk on to your Phone, location will be (system/app) & set appropriate permissions. :laugh:

No. I think it is to delete. Because I decompiled systemui.apk but didn't find any such line in the status_bar_expanded. When I added that line to this file at the last & tried to compile, I got a lot of compilation errors.

Yup, this is to delete the line from status_bar_expanded.xml
Which ROM are you using? I checked this on The Ultimatum ROM with Timescape MODE & worked for me.
If you wanna get the Brightness Slider then its something you have to work on with smali files too. Just by adding the line(in the post) will give you errors & maybe a fc if am not wrong.

Yes. I have to modify the smalis to get that & there's also a guide for that. But I took the easy way out. Used the systemui.apk of a different ROM & bang

status bar is given by framework-res.apk and
lge-res.apk files. These files are present in /system/framework directory. if rom you are using is deodexed, it is possible. you can use dsixda android kitchen. thats awesome.

SURELY. BUT FOR THAT YOU HAVE TO BRING WHOLE FRAMEWORK DIRECTORY. AND PLEASE USE ANDROID KITCHEN. BECAUSE IF YOU UNZIP, REPLACE DIRECTORIES AND ZIP IT AGAIN, THEN THE ZIP FILE MAY NOT REMAIN FLASHABLE. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=901417 CHECK THIS THREAD IF YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT ANDROID KITCHEN.

Decompile system/framework/framework-res.apk using apktool, go to res/values/bools.xml, change 2 values that are related to lockscreen rotation (can be understandable by English)vfrom false to true, then compile the apk , and make a cwm flashable zip to flash via cwm recovery

Two questions
1. Those are :
<bool name="config_enableLockScreenRotation">false</bool>
and...
<bool name="config_allowAllRotations">false</bool>
or
<bool name="lockscreen_isPortrait">true</bool>
2. I edit the values using Notepad++ and save it, but why i cannot compile the apk?? Am i forgetting sumthing??
Allow all rotation means to allow 180 rotation.
What happened when u compiling apk?

Mr S_sway , why do u post something when u you really dont have the knowledge ? the systemui.apk first needs to be decompiled and then the xml file needs to be edited to support the background image in the notification background
.. the method u have posted is of no use , unless the person is using the modded systemui.apk
the stock systemui.apk is not modded and OMEGA Roms also have the SystemUI.apk which is not modded to support background images
so guys dont waste your time downloading the zip file and trying to get the background image , unless u have the rom with modded systemui.apk that supports notification background , this will not work .

to decompile we use an app called as apk multi tools and another app apk manager !!
both are good...works fine for me...!!
i think u will need sdk tools installed in pc to make apk managaer and apk tools work on your pc !!
google about it, you will get more answers.
and there is a guide in development section named 'make custom rom' which shows how to decompile any apk..!!

Extracting the apk breaks the apk (Signature)
So to do this you need a computer. Can't do this on phone.
1st way:
-Open the apk with WinRAR (without changing the apk extension)
-Simply drag & drop the D.O.C's files in respective folders & click OK on prompt.
-Push into system with correct permissions.
2nd Way:
You have to decompile the apk, replace files, recompile, sign it & then push it into your system.

Try apk multitool... If you want to just make some images changes just extract it and make changes then pack it... If it needs xml changes then you will have to decompile and compile... These can be done with apk multitool...

I meant that don't rename the file to .zip. You can open .apk file by Right click > Open with > WinRAR. Now just drag & drop D.O.C.'s files in the RAR. Window in respective folders then click Ok.
