does anyone know a way to make the Droid 2 notification bar black?
I'm running the stock rom and i don't want to flash any other one.
so can anyone help me?
Just use any theme you see here with a black notification bar... or do a search for black notification bar.... searching is key

I found a theme.....but do all notification bar themes work on any phone?
Crap didn't mean to thank you for that post.
All themes under droid 2 themes and apps should work as long as they are made for your rom
Do you need to be deodexed to apply themes like this?(excluding metamorph and ninjamorph)
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA App
I don't think you necessarily have to be, but it is recommended.
Completely wrong
You need to be deodexed or flashing themes will FAIL.
I would just recommend using fission and then flashing a theme over fission. Fission has tons of features and themes and you'll like your phone much better after that. Any custom rom is deodexed though so it should work with any rom.

I said what I said because I had read that there were some deodexed themes. Not sure how true that is though, as being that I've never actually tried looking for any.
thanks for the tip.
i just flashed Fission with the black theme, works fine and is amazing
thx again
I'm not sure what deodexed means. Does this mean I can't change the notification bar theme on stock rom?

If you're running the D2's stock ROM, they your most likely ODEXED. As they said before, install any custom ROM and you'll then be DEODEXED. Hope this helps...

I have been wondering this same thing, and after some research and googling I found a very simple solution. Locate my post titled "Theme Kitchen" and go to the link provided. It is a theme kitchen, it has instructions included on how to do everything.

What version of cwm are you using to install this? I made my own and it wont flash (error 0), but im on jokers cwm v3. Were there any particular options you selected in the file upload section or did you just do recommended for everything? Also, after flashing yours phone wont boot.

Does not work on versions past v11. But if it did, it would probably work through bootstrap.

I tried with bootstrap didn't work. I didn't notice in bootstrap a option to do regular cache wipe, I've only seen the wipe dalvik cache under advanced menu.
I really want this mod, I would love it if some one can help me out.

i created a new theme for v16. it's little bit different.
everything created with uot kitchen.
edit: this one has blur gprs and edge icons. for fixed version go to 20th post.
Nice, really. I will put your thread link in my thread.
Don't you want to theme more?
Nemus theme for example. You don't even have to decompile it.
Thank man..:good::good::good:

i want more but i can't do andvanced things without a tool like uot kitchen. and default nemus theme is good enough for me. however i looked over nemus theme wiki. there is no too much edit options. only themeable things are page indicators, app, menu and home icons.

by the way i'm attaching new version of mini theme. i fixed edge and gprs icons and add black transparent tint to notifications screen...
I decided to try the SHOstock2 theme from the wonderful team of individuals here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1584144
UPDATE: WORKS ON SHOSTOCK2 2.0!!
My main problems with the "theme" is it totally messes with your stock apk files by adding extra AOSP apks or replacing apks. (AOSP MMS, AOSP Calendar...), the weird charging image bug, and the out-of-alignment signal icon while on wi-fi.
After reflashing SHOstock2 v1.1, I decided to just re-jigger this theme to an actual VR theme which will NOT mess with the rom's stock apk files (I love TW Calendar compared to AOSP).
This is just an image swap pseudo-theme which replaces the stock SHOstock2 battery icon and themes the Settings, Frameworks (-res and tw) and SystemUI. It does NOT add or replace apks and may work on other roms than SHOstock2. (I am using it with SHOstock2 v1.3)
I have fixed the charging animation bug and the out of alignment signal icon on wifi. The clock is NOT themed blue. See my screenshot attached.
I want to mention that most of this theme is not my own work but an arrangement of other work I have come across here on XDA.
Download the VR theme here: http://www.mediafire.com/?b97o5ozyy7edi2o
Save the zip on your phone and flash in CWM recovery.
You can replace the dock icons using any of the great icons from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1590114
I do not wish to offend anyone here. I appreciate the thought of the original theme and wish to only make it easier in my eyes without messing with any of the original rom's functions. Thank you for your consideration!
Working fine with Phone-Bricker as well.

ha, ha!!! Yeah...I guess it is a little more CM9 looking ICS than Samsung ICS.
It is basically some image changes and I just flashed it over SHOstock 2 v2.0 and it works just fine. That is the whole purpose of the VR Theme System...cross rom compatibility.
Hopefully I helped some of you get a slight bit more polish in your Sammy roms.
So this does not change the dialer?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using XDA
I haven't used SHOstock2 in completely stock form in a while but I do know the dialer will be the same as originally stock SHOstock2.
Nothing was changed with the phone apk.

Flash via CWM right?
Xander_25 said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, flash the theme file zip in CWM.
I'm assuming I'm not alone here, as I have seen many people across the forums saying that they have either already gone to, or are thinking of flashing an AOSP ROM, and are worried about losing all of those Samsung Goodies (Like hover, air gestures, eye control, TW Camera, etc.) They generally also seem to want the customizability of a custom rom, as well. So, let's discuss how people have gone about getting that JB feel on a TW ROM.
The way I currently have this set up is with the Hyperdrive 5.7 ROM as a base. With just that, you get a smoother, faster, and enormously feature-packed TW ROM. The customization you can accomplish with this ROM is very impressive, especially considering it is TouchWiz. On top of this, I'm running - yep, you guessed it - Nova Launcher.
Nova Launcher is, in my opinion, the obvious choice for getting stock JB feel on any device. Nova allows the important customizations made to Hyperdrive to continue working, while adding the JB feel right on top. I've also run the script from within Hyperdrive to enable the Nexus 4 Softkeys, and I've shut off the lights on the capacitive keys on the device itself. This makes them completely invisible, so the device looks much more like a Nexus device, if you like that sort of thing.
What do you guys think? What other options are out there? I'm looking to give some insight to users who may want to get this type of feel on their S4, while also getting some feedback or better/different ways of achieving this. Good luck, and happy theming!
looks good just get rid of the nav bar

What does the dialer look like? Still the ugly white?
What about incoming call screen?
Just changing the launcher doesn't make it AOSP themed.

Why don't you just go check out the ROM thread yourself before completely discounting it? No, it does not have the white dialer. It's very well themed and runs great.

You and I have our wires crossed. I was responding to the OP, which references a combo of hyperdrive rom and nova launcher.
I wasn't referring to the Eclipse ROM, which I see has AOSP dialer instead of TW dialer.

Yes, but youre losing all of the touchwiz features, which is half of the point of this thread.

Yeah. So the dialer and incoming calls are both part of the TW base. Nova launcher is just that; a home/launcher replacement. Just as you said. Though I am sure there are theming options for these things through third party methods, since many people dislike TW appearances.
I am just trying to get more of an AOSP look/feel, doesn't need to be completely coated in JB.

Eclipse is a themed TouchWiz ROM with a couple AOSP parts. It is not built on AOSP base. I believe it has the air features and TW camera, as well as many others.

I fully understood the point of the thread which is why I suggested Eclipse ROM. It's Touchwiz based and includes all the Touchwiz gimmicks as well as the TW camera. It's most certainly NOT an AOSP ROM as you seem to think it is. It's just a very well themed Touchwiz ROM.

You know, its really easy to post a reply without being passive-aggressive about it. I made a mistake and was unaware that Eclipse was Touchwiz, I was misinformed. Now that I have been home and had a chance to look at it, it looks like a really great option! Thanks for posting it here.

The main portion of it is DashClock. I like the accuweather service more than Yahoo though, so I used overlapping widgets in Nova Launcher. The weather widget on top of Dashclock is a 1x1 weather from Beautiful Widgets.

I am no longer running this ROM, but it is an included script with Hyperdrive. If you go to sbreen's included script installer, it was somewhere in a media folder and you just run it from there. He posted the instructions on the first page of the Hyperdrive thread somewhere.
