3. Save /SystemUI/res/layout/tw_super_status_bar.xml

4. Open /SystemUI/res/values/drawables.xml and edit this line to get transparency you need, for example, 100% transparent:

<item type="drawable" name="status_bar_background">[B]#[COLOR="red"]00000000[/COLOR][/B]</item>

5. Save /SystemUI/res/values/drawables.xml

6. Recompile SystemUI.apk

Done... Now you have 100% transparent homescreen statusbar :)

Is it even possible to set an image instead of an colour code? Maybe for example : @drawable /res/ drawable / status_bar_bg_tile?

I had no luck with the code of mine, the statusbar disappears. Do you have an idea raubkatze or someone else? In my mind transparent statusbar is boring, so I like to have an image, it makes the system more unique. I made it possible for GNex and in HTC Forums it is standard, but htc moves back and so I like Samsung more and I hope some will even get on this train to make our phones more unique!!!!

Newb question, why format the sd card with ext2 or ext3 if the rom is still being put on the phone?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soap:
If you are partitioned, the speed will be vastly improved and your space will double. Every time you install an app, it goes to external storage instead of internal storage, thus giving you more space. It also keeps the program. From closing every time you exit. For example, if you close a game with the app on internal, it exits and closes the app from memory leaving any non-saved progress gone. When on external, it caches the progress leaving the game running while using the phone for other purposes.

So in the end, the partition is better than no partition. :thumbup:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Diablo67:
The benefit of partitioning your sd card is it saves alot of internel space on your phone and using a htc evo,you will benefit tremendously,because the OG has very little memory to begin with,by this i mean it will move all of the apps/cache/delvik/temp files to your sd card,hence the sd ext.Alot of the OSes 3.5 sense/ICS/JB arent meant for the OG,they just take up way too much memory,so partitioning is the best thing to happen to the evo and all of the latest recoveries and roms are being built to be compatible with ext 4 and swap,with partitioning and a2sd combined,it gives you the needed internal memory for those memory hogs they call android operating systems,lol.

I understand that my Galaxy Nexus does not actually have an SD Card, but an SD card folder, right? So for best performance I can move some files, like most downloaded apps, to the SD Card folder. Maybe data files like eBooks, right? Then I get lost. I have downloaded a couple of apps that are supposed to help me move things to the SD Card, but I don't quite get how to move them. Some SD Card apps show a list of apps that can be moved, but there does not seem to be a place to tell it, 'OK, do it.' I know I can attach to my PC/USB and see the file folders, but it seems like just drag & drop would lead to confusing my phone's operating system.

Maybe someone can recommend an app that is simple enough for me to understand.

Galaxy Nexus (Sprint) unlocked and rooted to use SuperUser. Running JB 4.1.1 stock from the recent update. Baseband ver: L700.05 V.FH05 / L700.FH05, Kernel ver 3.0.31-00006-gea59422 Build JRO03U.L700FH06 (BTW, I am trying to document the pertinent information about ROM & build and so forth to use when I ask for help from developers. Can someone tell me what is important for you to see?)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jv2543:
first off moving apps to the sd card wouldn't improve performance, so there wouldn't be a need to do such a thing. The reason the sd card is a partition instead of an actual removable card is because that way people wouldn't need to move apps to the sd card. The memory for internal vs sd card will be automatically adjusted as needed. But if you want to move some files from one part of your phone to the sdcard, so then you can simply drag and drop on your pc or use any file manager app like astro or root explorer if you need something from say the data partition.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GranPaSmurf:
So, just forget about it...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Moving files won't do anything, it's all the same, just a different folder called "SDcard" to keep compatibility with apps that are looking for an SDcard.
