Thanx bro

Why to rename bro 7zip open it 8 mean we can go inside without extracting apk and put the file in it? Meta inf and Android manifest?
[Android Themes] Namoi:
Well, i don't understand exactly what you said.

But renaming an apk to zip allow you to open it and replace in it things... a few things. The standard pngs (not the 9.png if not compiled), the manifest and meta inf for example... (which will prevent FC)
[Android Themes] galaxyfitankit:
Hmm you mean if I want to change only done icons than I can just rename it to zip go inside and change the icons and come out and rename again apk and push it to system? Will it work
[Android Themes] Namoi:
Yes. But don't replace 9.png and be sure the size of the icons are the same (to be on the safe side).

No need to replace manifest or meta inf.

Just open with 7zip, drag and drop, overwrite the old ones, rename, push, done.

Help me guys, I put my modded systemui.apk to my ROM.but when I flash the ROM the status bar and wallpaper dissapear.. :( ..but it work if I just flash the modded systemui.apk after I flash the ROM without modded systemui.apk.. It means I can't put the modded systemui.apk to my custom ROM..I hope u guys understand and help me fix this prob.. Thanks in advance :D
[Android Themes] Namoi:
Hard to tell why, but somehow you screwed your systemui.

First try to decompile, recompile, take manifest and meta inf folder from your original apk and replace them in your new systemui by drag and drop using 7zip (of course need to rename apk as zip.

Don't sign your apk!

Then rename back to apk and push.

If it works, what you modded is the problem.

We will see this step by step after you succesfully flashed back your unmodded apk.

[MENTION=4296852]Namoi[/MENTION] you know how to change position the carrier name? in the notification bar I need to upload more that is not within the rectangle of the picture
[Android Themes] Namoi:
Hi mate,

It is in tw_status_bar_expanded.xml in layout.

Look for this line (or similar)

<TextView android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Expanded.Network" [COLOR=Red]android:gravity="center"[/COLOR] android:layout_gravity="bottom" android:id="@id/carrier_label" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="@dimen/tw_close_handle_height" android:layout_marginBottom="10.0dip" />

Play with the gravity (in red) : put left if you want it to the left. you can also add a margin left to adjust its position afterward.

Cheers
[Android Themes] lacoursiere18:
What about the text itself..should I edit "carrier label"..
[Android Themes] Namoi:
You could try this :

Replace

android:id="@id/carrier_label"

by

android[COLOR=Red]:text[/COLOR]="Put Your Text Here"

There are other part of the ui where the carrier label is used. This dirty trick will only replace it here...

You could also hide this label by adding a new parameter

android:textSize="0.0dip"

PS: There is AFAIR a global way to change the carrier label, BTH i don't remember how.

mmhh, maybe I let the statusbar how it is by me, after the reboot I pull down the bar and then it´s transparent, and I don´t really care about it that ´s black in a few apps ;)

it´s my first time I set the bar transparent, so it doesn´t matter much :D

Hi everyone, i quiet learning in this thread for a long time because i bad english.

today i have one question, how to visible status bar on the expand view?

i search for these but the result not help me.

can anyone guide or link for this tutorial please.

my device s2 touchwiz rom

so bad english. please forgive me. :o

thank you very much.
[Android Themes] Namoi:
This one is kind of fun.

You have to mod tw_status_bar_expanded.xml and notification_panel_bg.9.png.

The idea is to add at the top of the png the height in pixels of the statusbar, then in the xml, you have to move down all the layout by the same amount but in dip by modifying the

android:paddingTop

and adding AFAIR an

android:layout_gravity="top"

Here the code of my original layout

Replace the green by

android:paddingTop="25.0dip" android:layout_gravity="top"

Where 25 is the height in dip of the statusbar (here onn SGS2)

To know that size for you, look in dimens.xml in framework-res.apk ( 25.0dip)

To modify the pngs, either convert this dip in pixels or (easy way) make a screenshot, open in photoshop and measure the height.

Finally modify the 9.png by adding this height as transparent pixels on top of it. Warning it is a 9.pngs.

Here is my uncompiled 9.png to see how it looks (respect the one pixel border !)

And you can btw in the same time modding your notification background with this png. In mine i just added some transparency.

What toggles you speak of. The quick toggles aka powwrwidget ?

On Sammy either you use stock, so have a look in systemui, or you use lidroid mod and it will be in lidroid-res, or alliance-res if using this rom.

And Google would be your first choice to find a fast answer. It is how i do before asking...

Anyway it is in hdpi, analyze the pngs, there must be one with a name approaching the ones of the toggles i imagine : like bg something, or it is in an xml in drawable.

In expanded.Header.xml there after the clock line you have to add space line. Infact I don't remember that line. But by this way I moved my settings to the extreme left.

Even the guide you are following to add recent app and lock screen have that space line. Just add those lines. And if you can wait for morning, I'll let you know the whole lines along with that For the recent apps and lock screen icon on the header without overlapping.

Guys I'm having such an issue with tablet status bar.. I found the PNG for the background.. Its called tw_status_bar_background.9.png but the only problem is when I try to modify it to be transparent..everything gets distorted.. I need help!! :) :) if anyone could suggest anything I would appreciate it
[Android Themes] HighlanderZA:
Hi there bud. the XXXX.9.png files are special cases - they have to be de-compiled before you can edit them and re-compiled afterwards.

They have 'patches' controlling how they stretch and where there is content placed. This requires special handling.

There are a lot of great tuts on xda on modding them.

Try this one : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2326393

In the case of that BG, you could use a color code to make it transparent instead of using the BG png.

This works on the SGS2 and might work on the tablet too.

EG:

android:background="#00000000"

vs

android:background="@drawable/notification_panel_bg"
