[Q] [Xperia U] - way to make icon bar transparent - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hi gyus,
I'm running my XU on FW 6.1.1.C.1.0 , rooted, LB, installed CWM for LB. I'd like to ask you if there is some possible way to make upper icon bar fully transparent instead of standard black color? I don't want to install any custom ROM. Is there some application or mod, which is able to make this icon bar transparent?
Thank you very much gyuz,
Rado

backup ta and then unlock your bootloader and flash cm11 :good::good::highfive:

There are xposed module for that purpose i think. But it doesn't work like transparent in kitkat. No wallpaper behind the bar unlike in kitkat

Thank you very much guys
zeyad xu - unfortunately my BootloaderUnlockAllowed=NO
wan5xp - is there any chance to change it's pure black color to ANY OTHER color via Xposed module?

Hmmm, on my Xperia Pro with Stock .587 i got an empty status bar .
First flashed the Framework out of the first post, than the classic theme. Quickpanel is ok, but Statusbar shows nothing .

After reboot nothing changed. Reflashed only Framework, nothing changed.
Is there a possibility to restore original framework without reflashing firmware?

Extract the framework-res.apk from the Flashable ROM you have, move to system, get right permission rw--r--r-- and move again to framework replacing the old one.

Afaik there is no flashable zip for the .587 for the pro right now, i just have the .ftf .
So i am doing a backup with cwm, reinstall the ftf, extract the framework, restore the backup an put it right back. THAT could take a while ^^

If you have the back-up, you can use "yaffey" to extract the framework-res from system.img.yaff2..
Ok, with original framework the statusbar is ok . I only flashed the classic theme, so everything is working fine now .
Great job..

[U] Power Menu and Toggles for STOCK ICS B.1.100

Hi, i just want to share something i did for my self, and i use it for a while without problems or bug's or..
It's a Extended power Menu and some Toggles for STOCK ICS B.1.100 Xperia U.
Xperia U its the only device i have so i don't know if it will work with Sola, P or ...
Make a backup of your original files before flashing.
Boot in to CWM, wipe cache partition(that's all i did) and flash the mod you want.
AND.... if you brick your phone its ONLY YOUR fault.
Here you go
Power menu
Toggles
All in one mod
Credits
 @..::Matr!x::.. for his Power Menu mod
@ everyone on xda for the toggles
@ me...
Edit: since im using locked bootloader stock ics u, the "reboot to recovery" doesn't work on cwm touch v5.5.0.4. but it works just fine with cwm v.6.0.1.2
It works great. thanks ..
Xperia U
STOCK ICS B.1.100
dude i juz flashed ur all in one zip, it start phn n show sony xperia logo n again reboot not starting phne, i used my backup to normal
@bcik did you flash the "all in one" or .. ?? im asking because grrish had a problem.
@grrish i have tested a lot the individual zips, but not the "all in one", but still i don't really think that there is something wrong with it, its the same script and the same files..
Maybe you can try to wipe dalvik cache too.. before flashing, but it should wipe the dalvik automatically when you reboot the phone after flashing.
So.. do you have any other framework related mods that could conflict?
Are you on stock ICS B.1.100 Xperia U, or ...???
Yes dude I'm on stock ICS B.1.100. Rooted with locked bootloader no any framework juz simple root!
And juz nw tried ur toggle zip it worked great
Sent from my ST25i using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

congrats ... beautifull mod :good:
can't try now 'cause i'm on jb
The Allinone mod, changes the background of settings too? Because I installed your clean rom and before installing this mod, I don't remember of having a settings backgound looking like a dark granite wall and I don't like it XD
Thanks for trying @Archidelic , if you forget about the background... does the mod work as it should?
This mod was created by me for me.. and it was easier to make the framework with a static background
There are 2 other options.. transparent background and.. "normal" like on stock, so now.. ill (try to) make a new framework that changes background according to the applied theme
Edit:
OR.. if you dont want to wait.. change the background images by your self
Background image is stored in
framework-res\res\drawable-nodpi\semc_bg.png and semc_bg_bright.png.
framework-res\res\drawable-land-hdpi\semc_bg.png
OK, so here you are.. power menu mod that changes the ui background depending on the theme, BUT... the dialpad is TRANSPARENT.
This transparency is the reason why people are using the white JB-ported phonebook e.t.c. for "fixing" the transparency in dialpad

Sorry for not letting a feedback about how it works, I only tried it about some minutes and it worked fine, I'm not a fan of that highlight under the icon, but overall it looks cool and it works as it should.
Oh thanks for trying to change the background! You didn't had to XD
But sad that the dial pad is transparent now, isn't there a fix?
Would prefer if it was the status bar that was translucent, I love it that way, but i didn't find any Toggles mod with translucent status bar

Any rom which gets a theme will be based on fact that rom will be de odexed (there may be a few mods but most of them are for de odexed) so though odexing ur rom is cool refrain from doing so.

either restore your nandroid backup you made before flashing this mod to go back to how your phone was before the mod
or
flash systemui.apk in cwm with system mounted from your rom zip or the one you was using before
edt is an app for changing some status bar elements such as adding battery % icon and changing clock colour & am/pm
please search for what apps do - you will find more information

Please first back up SystemUI.apk from your mobile
This file is located in Root/System/app folder (it can be done by using any root file manager application).
Then go the thread of SamRenz Custom ROM v1.0 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2642006)
From his first post download "SystemUI Patch for SamRenz ROM"
Extract the zip file.
Then copy the new SystemUI.apk from the extracted folder SamRenz_Patch_SystemUI/system/app to your mobile Root/System/app folder using any root file manager application.
Reboot your mobile.
If any problem arises then replace your backed up SystemUI.apk

Install galaxy locker(Lockscreen like S4) from playstore and go to Status bar and set it "Hide and Transparent"
You will love it...
You have to disable the Default Lock screen from settings and then enable galaxy lockscreen. Hope this helps.
