the file you need to mod is status_bar_expanded.xml
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.NotificationPanelView
you can set transparency by changing the android background color hex
I added a new background so the resource would define color by drawable rather than style... i did this for the reason it is easier for the average user to mod themselves.
Nice mod still getting the shuttering when opening the drawer no biggie.

the systemUI mods have a permission set for Prism.apk. I'm assuming that is a typo in your updater script and you meant to set the permissions for SystemUI since that's what is being flashed.

that is correct it will not make a difference anyway, thank you for pointing it out though
I wasn't trying to be a prick or anything. What I meant to ask is I guess is does the SystemUI apk. need to have those permissions set?

I know you wasnt being a prick apologies if my message sounded snappy... The permissions are already set in the system anyway.. I always set permissions in zips incase any issues... The zip has been tested numerous times so works perfect... Let me know if you need anymore help.

Nah I just meant that I dont like to point out things trying to highlight a mistake to make anyone look bad. I was just confirming what your were intending to do vs what I looked like the script had going.
hey @xvicedice im trying to get the transparent status bar (when closed) to match the transparency of your blinkfeed/app drawer mod. i was wondering if you could point me to the drawable/xml file. thanks!

no worries what level of transparency are you looking for? - its more than likely in the values/drawables folder under something like status_bar_bg.. if not i thing on the sense based roms they are png files due to the open close of statusbar.. in the case of the second i would look in the drawables folder for something like status bar on or something... if you have any issues let me knw

I am making a request to any modders out there that can remove the 4g notification icon when you have 4G on. I want to be able to use 4G but not see the icon there when not using it.
A mod for this was done for the evo 4G and an example and more clarification of the mod I want done can be viewed here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=883088
so basically if that could be ported over to the evo 3D that would be great
Thanks in advance

If you delete the png you also need to delete it also in public.xml and for that the apk needs to be decompiled compiled an resigned. An easier way would be to make the png transparent.

I did the smali edits....it worked on my phone...give me a minute, ill upload it..
This is the done the proper way, as in it will not only hide it, but it won't take up space in the status bar when the notification "would" be there, like invisible icons and such would
EDIT:
DISCLAIMER:I'm not responsible for any damage this may cause, though it hasn't caused any FC's or any ill-effects on my phone yet.
Install Instructions:
1. Download zip, put on SD card
2. Reboot into recovery
3. Wipe cache and dalvik cache
4. Flash zip from recovery
5. Reboot
First bootup will take a while, but as long as there's no bootloop, just be patient.
This will remove the "4G Still on" or whatever it says when you're not connected to 4G, but your 4g radio is still on
Hide 4G Notification
And this will return you to stock settings if there's any problems...

BTW, the mod is an edit to the Settings.apk...Most other "icon removals" (gps on/off, etc.) are located in other apks or frameworks (jar files)...so this will not negate/over-write if you have a theme/mod removing the other icons

It does that occasionally for me too. Guess that's the downside of it being an app instead of systemui mod. But at least it works.
Also if you want the gps / nfc to be direct toggles and you have root. Make a system app of it: http://vps201.fra05-inx03.webhod.de/thomas/j4velin_development/dl-root.php?app=nt
/edit: in the settings of the app there is a toggle "display in the on-going no notifications section". Seem like if you uncheck it, it will be moved back to the top.
It looks pretty nice too. The CM9 icons you can download from within the app fit the xps theme pretty well:
Yeah I have it as a system app and use the CM icons.

That doesn't seem to make any difference for me. It still drops below most new notifications. Ah well, it'll do until some modded SystemUI's start to appear.

I have most the firmware deodexed already to do notification toggles plus do power button restart / reboot to cwm.
I can upload the deodexed framework/res and android.policy jars when I get home so we can do the above.
Having trouble deodexing qcrilhook.odex tho.
Edit: These are NOT pre-modded, just stock ready for your modding pleasure.
Deodexed the following:
-android.policy.jar
-framework-res.apk
-framework.jar
-SystemUI.apk

thanks mate but pls can u upload them to box or something else the framework res are damaged i really need them!

to be sure upload them all on external site pls
Another great app for showing toggles in the notification area is Power Controls: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.painless.pc
Unlike Notification toggle, it DOES stay above other notifications. Pretty awesome all round.

Does not support Reboot and Shutdown, so: no
If you're just looking for an app to add notification widgets I use "elixir 2" it does this and more, I've just got resource monitoring activated temp, cpu, mem, sdcard, internal etc on the notification bar but u can add buttons and apps etc also.
But I think we want the real deal ;-)

Am I the only one who can't compile SystemUI whiteout it getting 'bad'. After I push it to the phone and reboot it doesn't work (gone). Even when I do not change anything (only decompile and recompile), it doesn't work.. Had the same problem when I deodexed it myself. :/

same problem here! but i have an idea, i cannot test because i'm at work! since SystemUI.apk is framework dependent we must deodex the framework files first ! if you have some time to test let me know if it works!

I suspect you'll need the SemcGenericUxpRes.apk framework file as dependency when decompiling.

Hey themers:
I'm just getting acquainted with making small modifications to the system and am currently working from a stock 4.0.4 LPL based ROM. I would like to implement a 50% translucent effect on the TW status bar.
I've decompiled SystemUI.apk many different ways - as a non-system app, an app w/ dependencies (both framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk), I've recompiled without any issues at all and immediately de-compiled to make sure my changes "stick", and they do. I then throw them into a flashable zip, wipe cache/dalvik, flash the zip and fix permissions, no go.
I'm following a guide that was originally posted in the GS2 forum that instructs us to do the following:
1) SystemUI StatusBar.smali - locate the "...Landroid/view/WindowManager$LayoutParams;-><init>(IIIII)V" statement and change the const/v16 above it from "const/16 v16, 0x4" to "const/16 v16, -0x3".
2) Go to res > values > drawables.xml and edit "status_bar_background" hex to #7f000000 for 50% transparency.
This didn't work on its own, so on top of that I also tried implementing the same sort of change mentioned in #1 above on both the PhoneStatusBar and TabletStatusBar.smali files. Still no go. The system boots no problem, but just no change in the visual appearance of the status bar.
Does anyone have any ideas outside of this on what smali file or statement in the above files might control this feature? I'm still digging but didn't know if others had attempted this. Thanks to any and all who are willing to help. I don't need anyone to look at code for me, just a gentle shove in the right direction would be fantastic!
+1 for this.
I'd love to see this work.

Does tw use a standard grey block to extend the background for the status bar? It sounds like it would and if that is do you could try adding that grey colour to an alpha channel on the image.

You need to modify the "tw_" variants of the status bar definitions to see anything happen, TouchWiz UI does not use the regular assets/definitions.

No problem, I spent most of last night working out how to move the system bar from the bottom of the screen to the top using a decompiled SystemUI from the TouchWiz rom for the Galaxy Tab. You might find that even though you make the bar transparent that the area behind it is black anyway (it is for me at least using the official 4.0.4 rom) due to it assuming that the system bar is being rendered there. I'm yet to figure out how to manipulate the rest of the WindowManager environment to fix the issue.

Due to a "dev" attempting to kang this and not give me credit for the framework transparency mod after he has asked me to be a part of the ROM, assist him in the transparent aspect, doing the edits for this individual, and not even originally credited for my work and then only being credited for "Wallpaper Show" as of Aug 5th, my transparent framework thread is no longer available to the public. If you figure it out yourself all the power to you. If you ever use someone elses work in your rom, Please do the XDA right thing and give credit where credit is due. I'm pretty sure you can figure out who it is. I WILL not support losers like this.
I'm grateful everyone has enjoyed my mod enough to run it on their phones and include it in themes/ROMs.
Thank you

Hey bro, if you want to just have a background with framework dependent apps then all you need to do is replace, "tw_background_holo_dark." No XML edits needed for that unless you want to go transparent .

We don't need shiz like thiz in our forums. You know, Deckoz may not know you did alot of the transparency theming. I mean, it could be a misunderstanding. Have you tried talking to either of them? I really like the rom, and if you had your hand in it, you deserve thanks, and recognition. I have seen problems like this before tear up a whole forum. There is no way I want to get into a he said/ she said thing, and I am sorry this happened. You really shouldn't punish the rest of us low level code tweakers though. I mean, what is done, is done, and pulling your stuff now just hurts us lowly, uneducated people. I am not telling you what to do, just offering a view you prob dont care to see because you are mad. Thanks for having it up, I just wish I would have got to try it myself before it got pulled. Really man, sorry.

Themeing the SG4 has been a challenge to say the least.
If we work together I believe we will be able to achieve much more.
Basically post your base that you are on, what .apk you are needing help with, maybe a screen shot to show.
Saved.
I'd like to start with the ME7 base SecContacts.apk.
I have been able to theme the Dialer to black background, but have had no luck with changing the SecContacts.apk background.
If anyone can help, or has any ideas, please let me know.
Thank you, all!
Welcome to theming Q&A..
I may be remembering incorrectly, but I think it is in the framework. It's something like tw-background light/dark. I'll double check when I get home to confirm.

No, the real guys are Vertumus and Nitro, theya re insane with it and their AOSP themes, they gave me permission to use theirs as a reference so now I can make my own AOSP them based off their work to the way I like it. (If can ever nake it that way!!)
thank you so much for your hep!

I mean I don't suck or anything, I first started out themeing, but then I did my first smali MOD and was hooked.
I was on 7 HTC phone before coming to the SG3/SG4 so I haven't ever themed Samsung besides SG3 which was cake, but it was also using Bean's work as a base 99% his. I can do it I just don't enjoy it as much, as I am not as good.
I'll help anyway as well.
Hope can get the contacts bro. I really want to get the AOSP theme rocking. Maaybee you want to team up with me on it? who knows? that would be so sick.
Either way glad this thread will hopefully get some good use for people.

I think this is right but I learn as I go.
Frameworks drawable-sw360dp-xxhdpi /tw_background_holo_light.png
I'm gonna theme to darken dialer so if I can confirm I'll report.
Edit: that did change contacts/recents backround but not dialer.

Dialer background is in a different spot for what ever reason. Its in sec contacts apk under one of the layout files with "dialpad_fragment" in the name.

if you change the contacts_list_content.xml in SecContacts and add android:background(line 12) that will change that. The problem with changing the image in frameworks file, is if any other apps calls a system resource it will make it darkbackground with most likely black text... This screwing that up.
So then you gotta redo that app. so I prefer to make the app inverted all by iteself and not reply up backgrounds and such from framework if I can help it....
Just a different way of doing it.....

Sorry. long weekend. Wrong person you are correct..
FWIW both methods did the exact same changes..
im trying to change the background of secsettings.apk from black/white text to white/black text
i know the changes need to be made in secsettings.apk. Nothing in there references a framework file.
i changed devicedefault to devicedefault.light in /res/vaules/styles.xml with no luck
any advice?

So just use the compare plugin in notepad++. It will highlight where text is moved.
