Hey evryone. Im coming over from evo side and was a big fan of cm7 and the theme chooser. I know we well eventually get cm 7 and its tweak but to be honest im running starburts v1.5 and im pretty much statified with my phone and the tweqks offered in the rom.

So with that said....i was wondering if some one here more talented than i, would be willing to create a minimal theme with a transparent bkg on the statusbar.....maybe even the clock centered ? ;)

Theres a few themes out there but im a big fan of simple grey icons. I believe theres on status bar mod thread that looked pretty promising but its not compatible with starburst rom.

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
i'm just about to go to bed, but if your talking about the top status drop down bar i can get you a transparent one that works on starburst 1.5 when i get up.

if you get a chance link some pics of what exactly your looking for, and ill see what i can do.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
Thats exactly what i wanted but the status bar itself too not just drop down.......ill post some examples. Thank in advance
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
Link in case pic quality is poor. I like these type of themes. Clean not only miui. Theres a few other but this should be good.

Could you post it here?

Im interested in having a transparent status bar too man, TIA!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
Workin on this now.

most of it lookin good

so far edited the SystemUI.apk and got a nice clear status drop down.

just about to look through and edit framework-res to get the status bar itself clear.

(thats the hope anyway)

You guys want a completely clear status bar? or just a mostly transparent one?

depending on your background the completely clear one can be a bit hard to read at times i think.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
Your the man!!! Partial transparwnt i think ia best..thanks again!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
Cant wait to see this now....lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
the stupid status bar is driving me nuts !!

should just be a matter of editing the .png files in framework-res.apk

but doesn't seem to work

so i tried

twframework-res.apk

still no joy. ill get it eventually tho.

gotta be around here somewhere.

funny how many redundant resources this thing has in it

i've found at least 5 copies of the usb connected android and only the one in

framework-res.apk seems ever to be called.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhantomHacker:
In systemui.apk.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
Yeah i koticed that just from looking around the file directory before lots of the same files named tw or slightly different.

Hopefully it can be done. This phone needs a nice theme lol...im going to have to sacrifice a weekend or two and learn this theming thing just to at least be able to help
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
Cant you also xenter clock and mive icons around un the apk?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
PhantomHacker,

Thanks for the heads up, and your awesome rom.

that was where i started and got everything else all pretty first.

at this pointi think i've tried every image file.

im sure it's something stooooopid on my part

on my other phone it just takes 3 images to do this

this one uses a few extras but ....

but i still can't figure it out. i can get everything to go transparent except that damn top bar.

is it possible there is some setting on these that prevents wallpaper from being shown through the bar (ala og droid)?

in theory it should just be the status_bar_background.png's

but maybe the phones not drawing the desktop under this area?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
Interesting. i know this rom gives u the miui style battery at top od statusbar...wonder if that can give u any ideas
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VECTUS:
Hey its in system ui and I think its called statusbar or something like that. If you extract all the pngs you can see it. I don't have have my PC close by or I'd give you the exact file name... sorry ... anyway its a .9 png which requires extra edits in Gimp etc which are a pain in the ***. That's why none of us themers have jacked with it to be honest...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
yup statusbar_background.9.png

should do it i would think. but thats me thinking again and it doesnt seem to work.

thought it may have been my .9 pngs but seem to work ok if i toss them on my knockoff tablet.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
Hopefully you guys can find thks mistery png file. Ki wonder if its call out in another apk. Has anyone tried removing tw altogether?

Does this help?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
thanks james33440 but that doesn't appear to be it either.

Don't worry guys i won't give up quite yet.

sadly i'm no pro at this but i will figure it out.

stopped and picked up my laptop with the android dev kit on it

and got the rest of the weekend off.

i will find a solution.

mostly likely it's one of three things.

1. the file i want isn't really the one i'm trying to replace. (but works on my tablet)

2. there is another file called somewhere besides sytemui

3. or i'm just an idiot and doing something wrong / missing a step

but i want a semi transparent taskbar and i got some free time. So imma try a couple things right now. and will report back shortly.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
Great news. Im wonderi g if touch wiz could be removed just to figuere out if its that launcher thats calling for its own statusbar png. Im a noob when it comes to this so i apologize if i make nonsense :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
that makes sense but doesn't seem to work either.

i still feel im missing something basic but....?

i can even change the call in the status_bar.xml to call my own .png and delete the other but still makes no change.

i even tried setting it to drawable/ but it just seems like the status bar gets called from some random location.

it's gotta be here somewhere i just need to dig down a little deeper. sigh i wish i wasn't a noob (but i feel im learning a bit so it's not a total loss)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
Could it be that it shares the drop down status bar image....maybe im just reaching...i think they are difc just trying to think of something
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
Any luck guys?

Here a thread showing a transparent type status bar. Me pwrsonally i like tgemes from kgill7 from the cm themes lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
Bueller?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
Hey guys. I dont want to give up but its not looking good is it?

Is there any way to at least make a minimal theme? A nice battery like the ones we see on miui and the cm7 themes? Some nice 3g icons simple. Im just being a lain i know but man these green and ics colors are really not my thing. tia
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
yea this is possible. i've been working on a really simplistic theme.

i've got quite a few of the icons done and some other tweaks and may release it into the wild this coming week. (starburst 2.0 should be around sunday or so from what i hear and it'll be for that so...)

the only part that still is stumping me is that damn stupid status bar i really want it to be semi transparent. everyone just tells me its that stupid .9.png but i find it odd that all my other .9.png files work no problem and i just can't change the one i want.

so we may be stuck until someone smarter than me steps in and themes the statusbar at least once so i can see what i'm doing wrong. but i'll try and make some time at the beginning of the week to finish up what i got. minus that damn statusbar of course.

edit looks like i may be pulling an all nighter fixing some we servers if i get some free time i'll post a few screenies of whats done so you can give me some feedback
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
here's the first teaser of the evening as i get these things sorted out.

mostly just some naming and minor edits left to accomplish.

this is one is just mostly showing the miui style battery and i think i'm going to skinny up the signal bars a bit.

i've got the the charging animation set up about the same. it stays on your current batt level for a few seconds then runs up to 100 flashes a full batt and returns to your level to wait a few seconds and repeat.

it'll still be a few days before i have something ready to put out though. i never get as much time to play around as i'd like.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
another teaser for you. miui style currently on starburst 1.9

and now that it's 3:30 am i am going home to get some sleep.

more to come tomorrow

ok ok one more and im outta here...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
This looks nice and clean. Cant wait...thanks for sharing the screenies
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
What do u think about using a battery like this? Its the image to the furthest right :) just making sure lol

Its from a cm7 theme by kgill7. I really like his themes
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
that battery is possible too. after i get this version done i'll try and throw one together with some alternate icons.

do you want it always to be a bar or do you want numbers for battery percentage?

and just a fun fact there are 203 icons just for the battery :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
200 wow.......always to be a bar works for me. Thabks again for working on this
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
Yup no problem. I get the day off for pulling an all nighter so I will probably post a version as a flashable zip for cwm later this afternoon so you can check it out

After that ill do the other battery style. Then probably start theming some of the rest of the os to match.

At the moment I have it running on starburst 1. 9 should probably work on a few of the previous versions also but I haven't tried. So you may think about grabbing the latest starburst if you don't have it already. Or you can be a test for the earlier builds if you like.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
almost ready... just one or two more icons to go.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
This looks great!!!!! Sweet. Yeah ill try it on 1.8. Prob update to 1.9 when it comes out si ce ive been havi g some issues.

Cant wait to try this. All nighters suck. Get some rest lol..... Thanks again

Hello,

I have an problem about installing / applying the update for the kernel.

Im trying now for almost 1 week. Maybe when u read this u think again an newbie that tries android on his kaiser.

I searched the forum an couple of times and didn't find an solution thats why i make an new thread. My problem is the following.

whatever i try to install android or the kernel update i see this message before it dissappear to the install menu.

Installing:

tar: can't open 'sdcard/andboot/androidinstall.tar' : no such file or directory exist

My setup:

Phone: HTC Kais130

Bootloader: 3.34 HardSPL

Radio: 1.71.09.01

Kernel: 2.6.32 (also tried with the 2.6.25)

Mutiple micro sd cards (from 2 - 8 gb) formatted in Fat32 or Fat

Roms: i tried: Incubus26Jc's Super FroYo 2.2 Froyo[2.2.2]: My Modified Fresh Froyo

Flashing the kernel doens't give any problems. i created the KAISIMG.NBH with atools.

Does anyone know what to do? cuz im out of options. I got 4 Kaisers here with all at the same problem.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] daedric:
Is the file really there?? is it a tar??

Try formating the SD card...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Veldmuus:
Hello Daedric thanks for responding.

Uhm these are the files i on the sd card at the moment.

/KAISIMG.nbh

/andboot/androidinstall.tar ( i tried also several times with .tgz)

/andboot/androidupdate.tar

with the option 1 install system i get that error and the same with option 4 install update.

I format my micro sd every time i try or change the files. What is following u the best way of format and which one?

edit:

I just saw the link of Kaiser android wiki and followed exactly the staps about the kernel with cache en scoot rs3. Still the same error. Sd card formatted in fat32 with 4k cluster.

Is there not an way i can flash it directly to the nand trough usb? This because i got 3 non working devices, and 1 turned back to 6.5.3
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Veldmuus:
Hello again,

Solved the problem.

somehow the 3 micro sd's i used were corrupt, i bought one new one and tried the one on the kaiser wiki. And there it is it worked.

So for anyone else that have this problem and u find this with google.

Get other sd's

I flash all 100% by Odin, when I restart the phone the old rom it is the same as before.

All isntalo app after reset back to its previous state.

Anyone have any idea of what can be??

I am with the 3.0 rom villainrom
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rembrandtlnx:
check in phone settings the version, if is villainrom or not

Also notice that most roms looks exactly like the stock one, but with hidden tweaks.

If you sure 100% the rom didnt installed, you prolly missed / done something wrong from the install instructions.

Anyway villainrom is a clockworkmod package if im not wrong, not a odin package that's prolly the problem

From villainrom thread:

"VillainROM Installation Instructions

To follow these instructions we presume you already have access to Clockworkmod recovery, and are able to put the zip file onto the SD card, and flash it."
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigspider_rs:
The rom is the flash 3.0 villainrom own by cwm. .. Zip

everything I do, factory reset wipe, wipe Dalvik cash, everything seems ok at the time, but after a reset back to normal 5 days ago.

Never leave the rom villainrom, I can flash any rom either by Odin as the cwm and when reset back to the state five days ago.

I ask the descuplas very bad English.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rembrandtlnx:
So if i understand, dosnt matter what rom you flash, you always end up to have villainrom installed?

Weird.

Try to odin flash a stock rom and see if it overwrite the villain.

when I press my "z" button from my keyboard my set type "y" and when I press "y" it type "z".......... is it a hardware problem or I can solve it by my own without going to market to spend money..........

any solution would be appreciated.....
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Qwertz instead of Qwerty im guessing.

Possible a corrupt .bin file.

Could try pulling from a different rom and replacing, you can find them in the /system/usr folder. Also have to ask you do have your location set correctly don't you?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muqaddas_dunyatv:
thanks to respond.... I think I am correctly set my location... but if the location is US and I'm living in Pakistan...is there any troublesome for my mobile functioning......

I don't think so it is my ROM error.... because when I received my G1 after "J-Tag" it had android 1.0 version, the problem was still on that version then I ask my friend to update it to the latest android 2.2 it still not remove or update the corrupt .bin file.....

is there any simple solution... please thank for helping ....

I am looking forward to buy a new one because I am not satisfied with the original battery.
[Desire HD General] clouds5:
I have it since it came out. For me it lasts a bit longer than stock as it has ~20% more juice. I'm satisfied with it!

Usually get 5h of screen on time during 2 days - while using the internet (most of the time on wifi) and playing some games with my setup. It all depends on your usage, rom and stuff like brightness of course so no one can guarantee you anything :)
[Desire HD General] sp33dy_gtx:
Let me tell you what I get right now

1 hour talk time

1 hour 55 m screen on time with lowest brightness

I think it is WORSE it may be my radio or is the battery?
[Desire HD General] clouds5:
The radio depends alot on your carrier and location. Results are different for everyone. I have very results overall with the one in my sig and according rils. And your usage is different from mine i never have more phonecalls than ~15mins per day.

You can't compare battery life when you have different usage ;-) but as i said the mugen battery has a little more juice and radio can make a difference.
[Desire HD General] raze599:
I use the Mugen battery. For about 2-3 hours of daily screen time, lots of texting, lots of surfing the web, the occasional short phone call, I still have about 50% left at the end of the day. Thats 8am to about 7pm around abouts.
[Desire HD General] sp33dy_gtx:

[Desire HD General] raze599:
You don't really need to do anything with the battery once you have put it in. It is recommended to calibrate it when you flash a new ROM though.

To calibrate:

1: Charge battery for 30min past where it says 100%

2: Go into Clockworkmod

3: Unplug charger

4: Wipe battery stats

5: Reboot

6: Let battery drain until it turns off by itself

7: Repeat step 1
[Desire HD General] sp33dy_gtx:
Thx I 'LL DO
