Where can I find the xml to modify the statusbar_background? Not status_bar_background. At least that's what it was called for HTC. If it's not called this, it's the top bar that houses the battery, clock and notifications. Right now it's black and I'd like to change it to a png.

The thread finally got copied into the 4 subforums, but now they are separate. I would suggest that I link to one in the OP so we can keep all of this useful info in one thread instead of spread between 4. I can link one in the OP. I'm on Sprint myself but since I subcribe to the thread it doesn't really matter to me where it is. Any suggestions?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Jirv311:
Well, naturally I'd say AT&T but Sprint is fine too. :D

Which xml controls the animated LTE icon in the status bar? The icons are in the systemui, so I'm assuming it's in the systemui as well. Think I'm using a older/custom systemui thats isn't properly configured for lte animation... Might have been based off of a sprint version or something. Thanks.

sorry i'm just now seeing your question, it's been a busy day for me. it's part of a signal cluster. i saw it while poking around in there. give me a few minutes and i might have a more definitive answer for you. also, i would prob jump from a ROM like that lol :eek:

edit: they're called in with tw_signal_cluster_view.xml in res\layout

i've attached one from a stock ATT ROM. if it looks the same, let me know. means i need to do some more digging.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrvirginia:
date color change?

so, i asked this is another thread we have here while waiting on this one to be moved so i figured i'd ask again to maybe get some more help on this one. i've been able to find and change everything, except this...

i've been stumped on this for a while. i'm looking to change the color of the date in our extended statusbar. it's not being controlled by the line found in tw_status_bar_expanded.xml. Shane suggested to me that it might be in colors.xml in framework-res but it doesn't appear to be here, either.

here's what i'm referring to circled in red. pretty sure i've figured out how to make the date appear as, in this case, Aug 1, 2012. just no clue on changing the color. also, yes, that's a pretty much stock ICS expanded status bar. took me days...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Swiftks:
Just base your systemui off of the last AT&T ICS Domination theme... Whoever ported the theme must have figured it out b/c the date is ICS blue... I know that's not really a answer to what to change though. ;)

Any way to completely get rid of Notification Toggles?

Really dislike how much room the notification toggles take up, I'd rather just not have them at all, or use Notification Toggle from the Market.

Does anyone know if and how these can be remove and that space reclaimed for normal notifications? Posted in General this morning and didn't hear anything, posted like a month ago with the same results.

Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Swiftks:
Ok, so my signal cluster apperas to be stock, which would make sense, since I'm using a stock based AT&T Rom... Just going to c/p my post from another thread this morning:

Anyone know why all the recent systemuis are now using a 4G icon instead of the animated LTE icon? Ive tries a couple of different systemui.apks; this one, the one from the ICS Domination theme, etc. Does it have something to do with a new modem or radio everyone's using in their roms? Is everyone/developer using a common systemui? Or is it just my local network? I swear im getting LTE speeds, and i know I'm in a LTE area, just wonder what's going on with the icon.

That being said, does anyone actually have, or is anyone's phone actually showing the animated LTE icon in the status bar?

Thanks

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shane6374:
Doable, you just need to find and modify the layout xml file that controls it.

No, there are different systemui's being used. I would think that the animated LTE icon would be controlled by an XML file. If you have a systemui that has the animation, I would trace those images to the xml file then compare it to the systemui that you are trying to modify.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] NunHugger:
I have done nothing to the data icons in my Rom. Even working on an aosp version...But keeping the att 4g icon. I don't get lte here so I can't confirm...But I have not touched them.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Swiftks:
PeterGuru, the themer for Diet ICS Rom, said that although the images are located in the systemui, the framework-res is actually controlling what icons should be displayed, and what signal strength/upload/download icons are displayed. I've asked him to PM me specifics.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Swiftks:
Downloading now... going to pull your systemui.apk out and flash it, see if it gets me back working... if not, i'll try the framework-res.apk too.

oh, I miss the stock settings.apk (using all white version now), think I'll take that too. :p Sorry for raping your ROM. ;)

Has anyone removed the dock icon text and the page dots?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shane6374:
Cool, thanks for the reply. No one had replied so I thought I'd give my thought on it, but I have no LTE in my area to try it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Swiftks:
Ok, I give up... I've flashed various combos of sysemui.apks and framework-res.apks... new & old, stock & modded... It has to be something else... no matter what, the LTE signal is using the "stat_sys_data_connected_4g.png" icon with the regular "stat_sys_signal_in.png" & "stat_sys_signal_out.png" files, instead of the "tw_stat_sys_data_connected_lte_att.png" and associated signal icons.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrvirginia:
which ROM are you running? you can't just take a stock one and theme it to your liking? maybe SecSettings? i seriously would not be running a ROM that was supposedly for ATT and didn't have that working correctly. there are lots floating around and i wouldn't touch them with a 10 ft pole. that's why i'm still on a stock deodexed waiting on a stable CM10.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Swiftks:
Running Kyan Rom, but am using my own custom systemui & framework-res... last night I flashed Diet ICS, with full wipes, and it was still using the same pngs as mentioned before. I was on AOKP, and came back to a TW based Rom for some of the features I like, but I of course did full wipes in between. I just can't figure it out. USE THE OTHER LTE IMAGE FILES YOU STUPID MACHINE!!!! :p
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrvirginia:
i'll blame kyan ROM here. his compression method alone is different from any other i've ever seen. not to mention a specific install process that i've also never seen before. you might wanna try a fully clean install, ie format /data /system /cache to make sure none of that stuff is sticking around :confused:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Swiftks:
Ok, so I went back to stock AT&T, and then flashed NunHugger's TruineFather Rom (as Kyan, Diet ICS & Ultimatum all were not working correctly)... LTE animation is working fine. Flashed only a custom systemui, and BOOM, No LTE animation. So I pulled NunHugger's systemui, and started making the same edits as the other already modded systemui, I still have LTE animation, and as far as I can tell the below lines are the only difference between the Non-working LTE animation systemui, and the working one; granted I didn't check smail code though.

Here are the edits that are in the "non-working" LTE animation systemui:

systemui\res\layout\tw_status_bar_tracking.xml

<FrameLayout android:background="[B][COLOR="Red"]@drawable/notification_tracking_bg[/COLOR][/B]" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_weight="1.0">
[B][COLOR="red"]<com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.CarrierLabel android:textSize="@dimen/status_bar_expanded_plmn_text_size" android:textColor="#ff34b0e5" android:gravity="center" android:layout_gravity="bottom" android:paddingBottom="0.0dip" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />[/COLOR][/B]
</FrameLayout>

systemui\res\layout\tw_quick_setting_mobile_data_alertdialog.xml

<TextView android:textSize="17.0sp" android:textColor="#ffffffff" android:id="@id/mobiledata_text" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginTop="3.0dip" android:text="@string/[B][COLOR="Red"]ctc_apn_change_ctwap[/COLOR][/B]" />
<CheckBox android:textSize="14.0sp" android:textColor="#ffffffff" android:id="@id/mobiledata_checkbox" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginTop="3.0dip" android:layout_marginBottom="3.0dip" android:text="@string/[B][COLOR="red"]mobile_data_connect[/COLOR][/B]" />

Don't know what exactly these edits change, or if they would even have anything to do with the LTE animation, but as I have everything working correctly for the moment right now, I'm content to just leave well enough alone.

Getting "Bad Magic" error when trying to decompile systemui.apk with Nun's tools, for the new LH1 build... framework-res decompiled just fine. I did the apktool if for the framework-res, systemui, and twframework-res.... Any thoughts???
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrvirginia:
yep, use the apktool.jar to decompile/compile, not the apktoold or apktoolr.

also, i'm using a different aapt, 806kb, instead of his 805kb one. i would try just using the one apktool.jar first. if you still have errors, i can post my aapt.exe file for you.

pretty much i only use NunHugger's package for framework-res, though i honestly need to switch to just using his and write new scripts so it calls in different apktool jar files depending on what apk i'm working on.

edit: yeah the aapt doesn't matter. just use the apktool.jar that's 3058kb instead of the other two to both decompile and compile. works like a charm. i just wrote a new a.bat so i could just change the command line with a simple letter :)

edit: for whatever reason, i keep getting "Input file <systemui> was not found or was not readable" when trying to compile this way. not sure what's up there lol

edit: oh i know why, simple mistake on my part. but yes, this does work :)

edit: not sure why it's not working with new .bat scripts so i would just modify the d.bat and b.bat and remove the d and r after apktool. that's it.

for NunHugger - AOSP Lockscreen

this question is for NunHugger, since i've read this has been implemented in his ROM.

i've been trying like mad to find a how-to on this, but i haven't been able to find one that's up to date for an SGS3 based ROM.

my question, to implement your lockscreen mod, i would need to modify LockPatternKeyguardView.smali in android.policy.jar and both xml/display_settings.xml and values/strings.xml in the SecSettings.apk, correct? is there anything else that needs to be modded for this to be toggle-able? i can prob just use WinMerge to find your changes for those specific files but wanted to make sure i wasn't missing something else. thanks!
