[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
>>>FreakyD transparent status bar<<<

What rom is this for??
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] freakyd9984:
this is for GT-I9100_WanamLite.XWLA4.V8.1.NO-WIPE but i hellraised and thank you a lot for getting back to me

---------- Post added at 09:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:28 PM ----------

that didnt work i tried wiping everything , whenever i go into a app u can see it goes transparent but when i go to the home screen it goes back to solid black
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
Change your launcher, there is a list in the OP
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] freakyd9984:
thank you a lot , will u b fixing it to where the tw launcher will work
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
There is nothing to fix, tw launcher doesnt support transparent status bars. I would have to decompile and edit the code inside twlauncher.apk, and to be honest i think tw launcher looks like **** and isnt worth the time or attention.

Just my opinion.:)

Hi, could you make for me a 100% transparent bar. I am running TurbkeyRom V33. The system.ui file is enclosed.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
Can you give this a try, and remember it depends what launcher you are using.

TurbkeyRom V33 Transparent Status Bar

By the way these png's from your SystemUI reported problems:

* "drawable-hdpi/quickpanel_title_background.9.png"

* "drawable-hdpi/status_bar_call_ongoing_background.9.png"

* "drawable-hdpi/status_bar_close_on.9.png"

* "drawable-hdpi/title_bar_portrait.9.png"

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] jsbutran:
Thanks you so much but it didn't work out. What files should I send you again.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
Dude, you need to stop going around quoting the whole OP in your post, if you want to say thanks just hit the little button in the bottom right that says thanks and keep the thread easier to navigate. Thank you.

Does the status bar force close?

Is the status bar black?

What launcher are you using?

All I need is systemui, Preferably un themed as there is less chance off problems.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] manishdev:
I am currently using i9100g. Tried this method and the flash given but i get force close status bar. I guess this zi dsnt work for i9100g
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
It helps if you let me know what you have flashed and what your running.:)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] pika456:
tried the custom files (only worked with manual replace)

and worked fine

I tried then the 100% transparent that was lookin for

and every change/animation is drawn on the previus,

giving a n unreadable mess in statusbar!

obviusly the background is needed to "erase" the previus statusbar status

so either transparency cannot work OR the xml needs some changes
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
If people are just going to post saying things don't work without giving any details that I've asked for countless times then I'm not going to reply.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] pika456:
KK5 rom

used the transparent png and the xml from the zips in 1st post

manually replacing the files in the apk of my my phone GS2

using go launcher ex last version

tried hi-quality and persistent settings

what else do you need?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
That's your problem.

Post 1 is the custom status bar, this enables you to use a custom status bar NON TRANSPARENT.

Post 2 contains the transparent status bar mods, if your rom isn't in the list then post your Systemui and I'll enable transparency.

You can make custom status bar universal, but not transparency as roms differ.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] pika456:
this is my apk, delete the .orig.zip

the files from 1st post work

when I replase the png from 2nd messes up

maybe the xml needs editing but I don't know what to look for

I use apktool for xml files but the builds do not work
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
Ignore post 1, i've explained in the previous post why the transparency isn't working.

Post 1 contains custom status bar mod, this gives you a custom status bar, NOT TRANSPARENCY.

USING A TRANSPARENT IMAGE WITH THIS MOD WILL NOT GIVE YOU A TRANSPARENT STATUS BAR!!!

USING A TRANSPARENT IMAGE WITH THIS MOD WILL NOT GIVE YOU A TRANSPARENT STATUS BAR!!!

USING A TRANSPARENT IMAGE WITH THIS MOD WILL NOT GIVE YOU A TRANSPARENT STATUS BAR!!!

Post 2 contains the transparency mod, this enables transparency so you can use a transparent image if you desire.

Hopefully I've explained this clearly, no pun intended.:)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] stev1456:
I've attatched my SystemUI.apk to this post.

Wouls you be so kind as to make a transparent status bar from this.

Thank you very much
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
Yes mate no probs, give me an hour to get showered and settled add I've just got home from work.:)

What rom is it for??
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] stev1456:
Thank you very much

It's Simple & Clean ROM 2.4.3
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
Simple and Clean transparent status bar

@ pika456,Is this just from a stock kk5 rom???

KK5 transparent status bar
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] stev1456:
The Simple and Clean transparent status bar works a treat

Thank you so much

Unfortunately it doesn't scroll along with the wallpaper but i guess it's never going to do that

Much appreciated
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
Your welcome

What do you mean??
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] pika456:
no, it is from PulseRom KK5

basically I feel I bothered you for nothing

gingermod is kk5 so I should use that from the begining.

thank you very much :)

** the scrolling wallpaper not working in statusbar (go launcher ex), but not big deal
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] stev1456:
I mean as you scroll between home pages, the wallpaper scrolls but the status bar graphic stays the same as the main home page. Maybe that's a drawback of using Go launcher.

No worries - it looks much better than having a black status bar

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
That is strange???...

Out of curiosity what are you flashing because i have'nt released a transparent mod for turkbey?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Dygreg:
Hi,

I'm running a stock deodexed XWLA4, I tried to copy and replace the *.png file and the *.xml file (from GingerModv0.8.zip you attached) in my SystemUI.apk but it doesn't work.

Does the status_bar.xml has to be specific for the version of firmware we're running ?

Thanks ;)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
No.

But the resources.arsc containing the transparency mod does.

Most SystemUI.apk's are different, that's why i ask people to post their version, it's not a "one file fits all" unfortunately.

GingerMod has jkay settings built into it, im guessing your rom doesn't because you say it's stock, so straight away there is a big difference in SystemUI.apk's

Post your apk and ill pimp it for you in the morning.:)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] zenosteam:
well i have followed the procedure in the op i have tested the enabled transparent st only perhaps a iam doing something wrong i am using turkbey v35 now
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
How have you enabled transparency?

Did you decompile your systemui.apk, edit the smali to enable transparency, recompile and flash?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Dygreg:
OK, thanks for the explanations

Here is my original SystemUI.apk
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] zenosteam:
that it i have decompiled systemui.apk but i didn't edit the smali i dont how :o
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
No problem, ill sort that for you now.

Ok, then you havent enabled transparency.

Post your SystemUI.apk and ill enable it for you.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] zenosteam:
dully79 thanks alot
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
No problem, is it for turkbey v34?

Edit: Your SystemUI is giving errors when decompiling,

W: Cant find 9patch chunk in file: "drawable-hdpi/btn_default_small_normal_disable_focused.9.png". Renaming it to *.png.

W: Cant find 9patch chunk in file: "drawable-hdpi/btn_default_small_normal.9.png". Renaming it to *.png.

@Dyreg, here is yours:

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] zenosteam:

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Dygreg:
It works perfectly fine for me, thank you very much dully79 for your work, the transparency bar looks very good !!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Dygreg:
Do you think it will be possible in the future to make the status bar transparent even if it's scrolled down ?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
The status bar is transparent. If your referring to the rest of the images in your screen shot you can use my guide to change them.

There is also a transparency skin in my Phone Candy theme thread.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Dygreg:
I'm sorry if I don't search well, but where can I find your guide to make the rest of the image transparent (I didn't see it in this thread :confused:) ?

I looked into the "Clear Add-On" pakage on your Phone Candy thread, am I right ?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dully79:
Lol, the guide is at the top of the page. Heres the link in case you get lost.:)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=22759138#post22759138

The first post will teach you how to change images around, there is also a link for image locations, the images you neded changing are in SystemUI.apk/res/drawable-hdpi/

Yeah the clear add-on images in there will give ALOT of transparency. You can try it and if you dont like it the zip creates a backup for you to restore on your sd card
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Dygreg:
Thanks again for your help. After a few tries, I managed to get what I wanted because it was interfering with the transparency status bar already in place. You're right, the notification of Phone Candy is pretty bright but I like it :)

Hi Dully,

Since i dnt have a i9100 i cnt use ur zip so i tried the source to do it myself.

As suggested i replaced the xml "ff000000" with "@drawable/statusbar_background"

in both the lines and compiled without errors.

And later replaced the statusbar_background with ur semi transparent statusbar_background and pushed the file.

Even then no success

Nevermind Apktool compilation worked wonders. Thanks :)

On your theme that u downloaded, extract it on your computer and use adb push to send it to your phone to /system/app and then reboot. If you don't have adb then use root explorer or a similar file manager to put the Mms.apk file into system/app. I have done this my self several times when first attempting my mms theme.

Oh no. Here I am posting again within a few days with another issue.

My previous issue can be found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1459225

I just turned my phone off to attend a few classes and when I turned it on my lockscreen was invisible (so could not unlock phone) and I saw an error on the top bar saying my memory storage was empty. If I reinsert my sd card the error goes away but lockscreen is still invisible. The phone does nothing. I hate to say it but I'm thinking about switching outta this ROM. It's moving fast when it DOES work so would love some help on this.

Thanks in advance.
[Droid Incredible General] Fergusonfox7:
This happened to me when flashing, i had to flash, reflash reflash reflash until it finally came up, Maybe try rebooting it a bunch of times?
[Droid Incredible General] Div033:
This happened to me as well when I tried MikG 3.0. You might want to try going into recovery and selecting the mounts and storage option and choose mount emmc. If it gives you an error, then your EMMC is borked and you must flash back to a stock incredible based from (such as TeeRom, Ice Cream Sense, or Stock GB) to format phone storage. You'll lose everything on EMMC but it will fix your issue. I also took out my SD card before choosing to format phone storage just to be safe :)

Looks like something is causing this issue on Mik3.0 and I unfortunately must advise backing up your emmc before using it.

[Droid Incredible General] countryfolk07:
What Mods are the two of you using? Ext4, themes not in the MikG forum? I need to know so I can try to recreate the problem. As I said in another post, this ROM does NOT even touch the emmc partition. Let me know what changes you've made. I can't help you with no information. There's been a hundred downloads and you two are the only ones I see with an emmc issue. Are your phones new, used, eBay? Thanks for the info.

EDIT: Also, what CWM recovery are you using?

[Droid Incredible General] Div033:
My info:

- Bought brand new 1.5 years ago

- CWM 5.0.2.0

- Hboot 0.92

- Nothing additional was flashed, not even tiny's kernel

- Wiped Data/Factory Reset, boot and system from CWM before flashing

- Restored apps with data from Titanium

- Set up Google and Facebook accounts

- Installed and applied Slate.apk

- Applied the following tweaks:

Font: Roboto

Autobrightness: Lowest

Boot Animation: HTC Stock

Down Animation: ATTEMPTED to switch to HTC Stock, however it was hanging on the download so I hit home to get out of the screen.

Status Bar Transparency: Switched to transparent, switched back

Rosie Drawer Scrolling: Disabled

Quick Settings: Disabled various quicksettings (4G, ADB Wireless, Silent, Vibrate)

Animation speed: Switched from Normal to slow on both transition and window

- Edited build.prop ro.fingerprint to reflect GB instead of Froyo so I don't get the OTA nag

- Set up everything all nice and stuff

I may have missed something, but that's pretty much what I did.
[Droid Incredible General] countryfolk07:
Only thing I see I don't like and don't recommend is TB with data. I have never had ANY luck keeping things stable doing that. Not saying that's it, just pointing it out. Still not seeing anything. Sorry. Just not sure how the ROM can do this. I asked Aamikam, the dev for the EVO version of this for his thoughts. He's not sure how this is even possible since the ROM doesn't touch emmc. Not sure.

[Droid Incredible General] Div033:
There are four reported cases of this issue on these forums so far; the OP of this thread, two more in the rom thread and myself. Still not as widespread as it could be, but it must be a rom issue. I've been restoring apps with APP data (never system data) through titanium in every rom flash and never have any issues, so I do not believe that is it. However I am not ruling it out. I forgot to mention I have an AMOLED screen if that makes any difference.
[Droid Incredible General] countryfolk07:
I also have AMOLED. What I'm not understanding is that I have flashed the exact .zip the reported cases have flashed. I've not seen the issue. Very frustrating, this is my favorite ROM and just wanted to be able to share with others, because this has always been a favorite.
