You know maybe it's just me but does no one else hide there notification bar?
I use widgets for what seems like everything personally.
So what i'm looking for is this. The Nero theme is great (TW Nero V1), I like the green and all that jazz but the battery meter blows, accuracy is lacking on a whole new level. so what i'm looking for is this.
Black out color scheme to make the battery & clock invisible on the Notification bar. I don't care if it's a clock work flash, or a morph, whatever is easier. Thanks in advance!
If you use LauncherPro you can just set it to hide the Notification Bar
yah i do that, but you know when you open something the blasted bar always comes down to haunt me. And bam right there in my face is that evil inaccurate battery and bright white Clock, Hell actually is there a way to skin the notification bar clock? Like change the color? if it was the same green color as everything else on the bar my ocd wouldn't make me twitch so much about it all. lol
Use ninja morph to locate any icons u want blackness out .. like ur battery icons... their in ur framework-res.apk files.. long press the icon u want to change.. and click edit.. there u can blacken out the icons..
Trying to request something this unique is pointless... I suggest knowing how to change ur framework work files.. to suit ur visual desires
I got bored so I made a Morph for you. It will work with MetaMorph and Nero ROM.
What it does to all battery graphics, including the charging graphics and battery full notic, are all invisible/black. Should be what you wanted.

your awesome, thanks
Anyway to get rid of the clock next to it?
FROYO ONLY
CM7 users can manually push the framework-res.apk to their devices
See the change log in the next post for changes
Official name changed is happening
Due to the fact that Clean and Theme rhyme and I always feel silly saying it in my head, I'm changing the theme name to WretchedBlues. Blues, because the primary color is blue. I'm already picturing some fun names for future modded themes, such as WretchedLove (Red) and WretchedEnvy (Green), etc..
So what's in the theme?
Pretty graphics (of course)
Ubuntu fonts
Color Settings app
Modded Vending (currently only for the MDPI users, but this will get updated in the next day or two)
This is a themed framework for those running on Froyo. It is a complete make over for both MDPI and HDPI density settings. For those of you who are new, you view screenshots at the theme's webpage.
What mods do you include?
A Straight up theme with no mods
Thanks to brianf21, we now have a status bar on the bottom of the screen. His mod also adds a home/menu/back button and fixes FCs on known apps (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=999214)
I had one very determined person hound me about the Volume +- mapping mod. I've inlcuded a package for that as well
***you must revert back to standard WretchedBlues before flashing this version!***
What's new in this version?
All themes are Flashable via Clockwork Recovery
Should work on all DPI settings
Completely new look for the HDPI version, while still bringing over some of the MDPI elements (quality increased to suit the HDPI display though). Things that have not changed are limited to buttons and text fields. I felt they looked good enough so why go changing them
Ubuntu fonts
I've removed every mention of the word "phone" from as much of the framework as I can. No more "Power options". It now reads "Nook options" and "Your Nook will power down".
Added a new look and feel to all pop-up windows.
New spinners
Semi-transparent notification pulldown (again, thenk Fuzzy_Dunlop)
Added a revert for Sweetened
Plus more

Changelog
02/07/2011
added the CWM flashable update.zip (http://jjis.me/froyo-clean/update.zip) file
corrected the text color of the "clear all" button under the status expanded menu
attempted to alter the color of the png for the activity status bar, but don't like the new color either
02/08/2011
Corrected the black text in the extended status bar notifications. I had to change the backgrounds to a lighter color since I can not control every app that will post notifications.
Notification headers now have a green background to tie with the green icons in the status bar.
Activity header background color has been altered to eliminate banding.
Altered the progress bars for those who were not happy with the over use of blue (and I agree after using for a few days). I've altered the bars to match the colors of the list select items.
Included the themed Market 2.2.11 so the icons in the status bar tie in better with the overall theme
I made the status pull down a little bit darker (depending on the number of request, I'll make the status bar darker as well)
That's it for now. If you guys have color suggestions for the progress bars and notification header backgrounds, let me know. I'm open to ideas. I'm trying to limit the number of colors I use though, so nothing crazy. It still needs to tie into the overall theme.

Updated the updater-script for CWM. It will clear the Dalvik Cache in hopes that it will free memory of left over files. There was also an issue in Froyo 0.6.7 where an extra framework folder was copied to /system/framework. The new script deletes this folder since it is not needed. I'm also clearing the old framework-res.apk, services.jar, Vending.apk and bootanimation.zip files before copying mine over. Again, hopefully this will clear up any performance problems people were having. I've looked at optimizing some more, but after comparing my files to the stock Froyo framework files, mine are actually smaller in file size.
Pulled the Vending.apk from the Gapps package being used for Froyo 0.6.6 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=917660). I've been using it on my Nook and haven't had a problem with it at all. Seems to work well.
02/11/2011
Color icons in Settings
Set status bar to black
Extended status menu is now black to match
Custom menu selection background
02/25/2011
Added HDPI from Galaxy S Cognition ROM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tovif0oZxUs
Changed the boot animation to the new Nook Color Red Blue animation http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952188&highlight=boot+animation (thanks Chuck6993)
03/02/2011
Finally got the back button issue fixed
Removed all mentions of the word phone and replaced with NOOKcolor (e.g. "Your NOOKcolor will shut down")
03/13/2011
Softkeys version: semi-transparent notification menu added, graciously, by Fuzzy_Dunlop (yes, I will apply to the non-softkeys version as well)
03/24/2011
Officially dropping support for soft keys mod in version WretchedBlues 0.1 and older. Too many bugs with it and this was not something I supported
Added the new modded status bar. This mod moves the status bar to bottom and adds a notification/home/menu/back button. It also fixes known FCs that were in the old version. Thanks goes to brianf21 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=999214)
Made all versions compatible with DPI settings
03/25/2011
Corrected the framework strings to remove as many instances of the word "phone" where applicable. Should now read either "NOOKcolor" or "device" throughout the framework.
Changed the options menus to be semi-transparent black with white text to match the status bar better.
03/28/2011
Introducing a new versioning system. The status bar mod will have a version number matching the date of brianf21's updates. This may change once he gets his mod to update without having to alter the services.jar and framework-res.apk files. For now, though, my version number will match his release dates so you guys will know if my theme is up to date.
Made the status bar background solid black
Increased the contrast of the status bar buttons.
The options menu now matches the status bar a little better
03/30/2011
Just a minor tweak to Sweetened to remove a density setting tag
Updated unModded to 0.1.3 (black status bar, better looking options menu)
Added a revert for Sweetened to go back to unModded
04/14/2011
Finally got off my lazy butt and updated the Sweetened theme to brianf21's 4/10 update
I've no additional changes, hence no update to unModded
Upcoming Changes
make the options menu seem more integrated with the theme in 0.1.2. It was a quick hack and I'm not too happy with it. Just doesn't seem to look right compared to the status bar
Can anyone think of anything else?
installed successfully on 0.6.6 and seems to be working just as advertised. aside from a typo in the instructions - "adb push clean-services.jar /system/framework/serverices.jar" everything installed smoothly. good work!

Oops. My coding habits coming out there. I apparently type $_SERVER way too often
Thanks for the catch. It's corrected now.
Beforehand, thanks for your work and development on the nook
Now, is there any chance of incorporating the Menu and Back button mod for the Status bar into this theme?
Original thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=932631
I know there are quite a few of us early Froyo(emmc) adopters that use this mod instead of remapping the vol+/- hard buttons.
Looks amazing. Is there any way I can add the softkeys to this theme? They are featured in theis thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=932631
I am afraid if I push them over your files it will mess something up and not boot.
Awesome them though!
I will have to look at that apk and see what changes they've made. I haven't used it yet so I'm not sure what will happen. If it looks like it's something doable then I can put together a framework with and without.
Normally, I use Button Savior in the market as work around for you for now.

Already installed I was using the button mod for the volume keys, but I found it was more convient to have the volume buttons with the keys on softbar, with button savior as a backup for some misc things. I kinda liked that better. But again awesome theme!! Is that Zegou UI you are using for the font? I dont know anything about theming, but I am decent with photoshop.If you send me the pngs( I assume thats what they are) I would love to make a red/black verison for you to recompile back into a theme.
Excellent work, will test and post any bugs!
I'm actually going to post the PSD files as soon as I get them cleaned up. I need to edit the layer names and file names so they match the file name of the PNG they're replacing.

is there any way to fix the notification pull down? It's always scaled poorly (doesn't stretch across the screen). Perhaps some xml file in the framework somewhere?
I have managed to get it fullscreen before by messing with lcd density, but it never seems to survice a reboot
Installed without a hitch! It looks great. I will post a screen of my set up, after I tweak a few things.
Nice work!

I am looking into this. It's not in the XML files. They all read "fill_parent" so there is something else I'm missing. I'm starting to think it's something in the jar files. As soon as I have a fix though, it will be posted.
W00t the only part of stock I missed was the blk. Installed fine on eMMC, happy to get away from froyos ugly gray

Looks like I missed a minor thing. The Clear All button in the status expanded menu is white text. Should be black. I'm working on the flashable zip so I will include the fix when I get the update.zip working.
Unfortunately CWM doesn't want to play nice with me so the update.zip is taking longer than I wanted.

I don't believe you can yet. Just for kicks I tried installing it by using Root Expolrer to replace the files, and it put me in a boot loop. Terminal Emulator might work, but I haven't tried.

im gonna add a nicer battery icon and a few other things.. ill upload it once my internet stops acting weird
ooh, looks so awesome. I want it too!!!11!!!!
I just wondering if you anyone know how to add power Widget to Pull down Notification like you see CyanogenMod or touch wiz with galaxy?
I am rooted but not running any rom on my photon...
I've went round and round trying to find an app or mod that does this best. I ended up settling with an app called power control plus. The options arnt truly embedded into taskbar, but instead is just a constantly appearing notification widget in your drop down. It is a paid app, and the 4g toggle currently doesnt work for the photon but hey, it does the job and is pretty well customizable.
I've been using Notification Toggle from the Market which is made by one here on XDA. Has worked pretty good for me. Can even add a shortcut for apps, change icons, colors, etc.

This reminds me of his thread here...
Thanks for the laugh, you dink
I dont think its too far stretched at all for the evo 3d
You really can't go 100% transparent on the status bar (top one)...it will go trans, but everything behind it will show through...not to mention, as much as I love 100% transparent and 90% of my phone's rom and apps I have themed transparent, the status bar looks horrible done trans...

Yea that makes sense , but i have no idea how to make things transparent but i mainly want custom lock rings and icons and transparent gmail gtalk google plus and messaging and custom widgets ...just trying to attempt the most custom rom i have artwork ideas but just trying to see how possible it is
Also Beats is nothing more than a gimmick. Beats = just another equalizer.
