Benchmarks' scores depend on governor, i/o scheduler, cpu clock and the adreno booster version too
Anyway I'm using your rom:
You've done an amazing work, the only bug i've found so far it's the black on black text on layouts like when you keep pressed the screen on launcher etc.
EDIT:
Here's my score w/ stock clocks

Did you see my benchmark? I found out that Adreno Booster is missing on your rom (didn't find the adreno_config into /system/etc), so basically that is why you were getting lower values

ahh ok thanks for explaining and good benchmark btw:good: i got 3 1/2 stars with white out ROM V2
oh and about the theme chooser i wanted to make for white out ROM i decided i'll use a script instead so the user will just have to select witch one in the script and it would install the framework and UI and reboot the device
i finished another theme, dialed down the super sonic colors it really did kina make me sick looked like a unicorn puke on the phone so its still light and crisp with a slight minty green accent

.exec(); serves to a Process to basically use the command line, so that I can for example obtain su access by using .exec("su\n" ); (\n stands for enter).

It's not that easy: layouts have references in the R.class, that is a pre-built class that contains IDs of all resources. And you cannot modify a resource class.
Also, if you take the layout, you must take the activity that uses that layout, and we cannot use smali code to build an app.
So, it would be easier to do this ourselves.

I wrote about this in the rom's thread, and it's not WINNING, it's a bug report. I choose that rom for the sake of transparency, but i consider it to be a bag, when I have white text on main menu of battery monitor widget, and the same white text on submenues, which overlap the text of main menu thus making it unusable. You cannot read two lines of text positioned on top of each other, and the same size, the same color. This app is not part of a rom, it's from the market and I guess it's not the only app that has this issue. So, this is bug report which gets ignored and people who raise this issue, get rebuked. Don't be a jerk help to solve issue to those who REALLY like this rom.

Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA Premium HD app
Here are orange themed SystemUI and framework-res. I made these from the April 12 nightly. I'm not sure if they will work with any other versions of CM9. Definitely make a nandroid backup before you try them. You can push them via adb or copy them to /system/app/SystemUI.apk and /system/framework/framework.res.apk using something like Root Explorer. If you use something like Root Explorer mount the folder read/write, copy the files, and make sure the permissions are rw-r--r-- like the other files in those folder. Then, simply reboot.
I'm not sure if I'll get around to ever theming any more stuff orange, but it can't hurt to let me know stuff I missed or did wrong.
Enjoy!

Updated!
Updated for the 20120418 official nightly...and zipaligned this time
SystemUI.apk - It adds a new set of battery icons with a little keyboard. I assume that is for when you have an external keyboard attached.
Trebuchet.apk (NEW) - Orange theme added for homescreens and appdrawer. It also replaces the blue architecture wallpaper with an orangified version. It's pretty hideous though. I'll try to come up with something better at some point.
framework-res.apk - Now available and hopefully working too. I've never had any success copy/pasting framework-res. I always have to use adb.

No worries. I'm not really sure I'll be able to keep up with updating this anyway. It's kind of a pain. Hopefully, CM9 Reloaded will support tablets soon.
The newest nightly has Theme Chooser for CM9. Hopefully, someone will make an orange theme. I don't yet know how to make Theme Chooser themes.

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.

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.

I wanted to have transparent status bar for months and after struggling, i present you my mod'ed framework that will give you the transparent status bar you always wanted (LOL sounds like a promising advertisment!)
This framework is from Rempuzzle rom, i havent tested this on any other sense rom but Rempuzzle. Also i made this on the new framework of rempuzzle with the new graphics so use it on it.
1 - Backup your previous framework just in case or backup whole rom if you are bored to reflash framework-res.apk
2 - Just flash my zip file through clockwork and you'll be all set. If you find any problem when flashing just extract framework-res and push it to /system/framework
3 - After flashing check the permissions on framework-res.apk and see if they are rw-r-r
4 - Leave a thanks or tell me if it didnt work for anyone! :laugh:
For months you say!! Well you didn't search much then did you? There's a few already been posted and I know this because one of them is mine lol,which also has modded notifications and statusbar icons.

You can't, the white,grey or black you see behind the statusbar is determined by the background in the app so you'd have to edit every app causing the problem which is more trouble than its worth.

I believe its better not to have transparent statusbar because things overlap and background changes, but anyway !
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.

was looking for something like that for month.
I'll get there...The solution cannot be far off from what has already been documented. However it seems others have not yet been able to do it on this device...probably just because there are more pressing projects underway. Guess it's up to us noobs lol

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.
Just a thought

I'll have a look this week!
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.
