the original META-INF folder and AndroidManifest xml is in the original apk before you mod it..just open the original apk with winrar, then you'll see both of it..copy and replace it into the modded apk after build (in systemui/build/apk/"here")..

then build the apk again.. :)

the modded apk will be in the dist folder..

not a transparent background, but i just need transparent status bar :)
[Android Themes] joehanh88:
-for my device it is in the tw_status_bar.xml.

at the 1st line you'll see android:background="blablabla".

change that "blablabla" with "#(any transparent color)".

- then go to drawables.xml.

find status_bar_background (change its color) or system_bar_background (change its color).

I forgot which one..LOL..

give it a try..

Sir,

I'm not very sure though, I think it will be the first code that...

"0xd7t 0x3t 0x8t 0x1t"

Because see the 1837 is in both of that and 0 is common.

Please try with that.

Hey Ticklefish, any ideas what's going on with this recompile error for the invisable status bar? I'm not sure what else to try! :( Thanks for helping so much with this!
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
I haven't had a chance sadly...but I'm having a look at it now.

I've just decompiled your SystemUI.apk and recompiled it without any issue. So far so good...

And I've recompiled after making the invisible button changes to tw_status_bar.xml, with no error found. I've made you a flashable zip which is attached to this post. Give it a try and let me know what happens.

I haven't been able to recreate your errors. I can only assume you either changed a file without realising it (easy enough to do) or the SystemUI.apk you gave me wasn't the same one you've been trying to mod... :confused:
[Android Themes] evrkusd:
Huh, I wonder what i did wrong to make it not compile. Thanks for pulling it all together for me :)

I took the systemui.apk and added to the ROM I'm making, and flashed it successfully. Problem is, the status bar still pulls down, as if no changes were made. Ah!

I noticed you said you updated tw_status_bar.xml, instead of status_bar.xml, which I had been trying to update. Could that be the reason nothing happened? How do we know which *_status_bar.xml file to update?

Thanks again for all the help with this - let me know if I can buy you a beer haha, I really appreciate it.:highfive:
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
Give this a try. Changes made to status_bar.xml this time.

Generally if you have a device with touchwiz rom based you need to mod files with tw prefix otherwise without tw prefix

Inviato dal mio GT-I9100 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Android Themes] evrkusd:
Ah, right. That makes sense. So tw_status_bar.xml probably was the right file, since I'm on Galaxy Tab 2 which is TW based.

What else could the issue be, if the tw_status_bar file didn't work? Is it possible those modified/added lines need to be adjusted? Didn't realize this would be so confusing, sorry!

[Android Themes] evrkusd:
It isn't force closing if I flash the modified tw_status_bar.xml (it only did that when I flashed a modified status_bar.xml).

So it's not crashing systemui, but it isn't doing what is expected, which would be blocking the notification bar pull-down by putting an invisible blank button on top of it.
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
Can you share a screenshot of your phone please?
[Android Themes] evrkusd:
Yup, here's one, thanks!
[Android Themes] evrkusd:
Tried flashing this one as part of my system image and I'm still able to pull down the notification panel! I tried flashing it twice to make sure it was going through, and did a factory reset between flashes.

I did another factory reset and went back and tried the original one that you sent (modified tw_status_bar.xml) to make sure I didn't mess up the flashing of that one or something, and I confirmed that it also for sure doesn't work.

Yar, this is tough! What file did you modify in this latest attempt? Was it tw_status_bar.xml again?

Would it help to have system stats from my device or anything? It's running 4.1.2, it's a Galaxy Tab 2 (7")

Thanks again for all the help with this.. should I try anything else?

can someone help me out with theming systemui auto brightness?? when i turn auto brightness off its themed when i turn auto brightness on i get a ugly grey auto brightness

i want both when turn off and turn on to be bleu and not that ugly grey
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
Well..this is frustrating!

Did you notice any change at all? I did something slightly different with the code and put a HOME button in the statusbar. When you press the statusbar, does it take you to the home screen?

If it does, then my little trick just doesn't work on your phone and we either need to look at retheming the expanded screen so that nothing important is accessible from it or..finding a way to turn off the pulldown functionality.

If it doesn't, then something's definitely not happening the way it should. Which means we need to figure out just xml file actually does control your statusbar.. To be honest, if this is the case, retheming your expanded screen may be easier! Lol
[Android Themes] evrkusd:
Went back and confirmed that no changes happened at all :/ Very weird. So maybe it is a different file?

In the meantime I'll try to just strip everything out of the expanded screen, like you're suggesting. It does seem like the easier option at this point (hopefully!)

That's strange that it's not the same file as other android systems though.. I wonder why that would be the case. I hope I'm not just messing up something on my end, but I don't know what that would be, so I don't think I am.

It looks like stripping things out of the expanded screen is basically all covered in the original instructions, so I guess I'll just try that first.. hopefully I'll be able to compile this one!
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
I had another look at your files and I'm still a bit puzzled. Part of me wants to get this nailed down and work out what's going on. The other part of me says that this has taken long enough and that stripping the expanded screen would just be a lot easier..lol
[Android Themes] SpaceCaker:
his rom/ statusbar seems to me Samsung tablet based.

so eiting statusbar.xml wont affect it.

maybe its system_bar.xml or tw_systembar.xml or such

maybe it can be in a layout like

layout-720p or something
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
Yeah, that's what I was wondering. But there's no statusbar or tw_statusbar in any of the other layout folders..

I'm tempted to make a small change to the xml just to see if that change gets implemented, because I really want to get to the bottom of this. It's not my phone though, so it depends what evrkusd wants to do..
[Android Themes] evrkusd:
Thanks for the input - I'm definitely happy to try whatever it takes, I'd like to know what's going on too! Right now I'm playing around with clearing out the notification panel (by following these instructions: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=40003194&postcount=60&nocache=1&z=5749407529365271) so we'll see if that works.

But it would be cool to just block the button instead, or at least figure out what's going on. Let me know what I can try to do to solve the mystery.. :)

--edit-- just re-read this and, yeah, it is a Samsung Tablet. There are system_bar.xml and tw_system_bar.xml files available in the layout folder. Could we have to edit those instead of the *status_bar.xml files?
[Android Themes] evrkusd:
So I went through all of these instructions at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=40003194&postcount=60&nocache=1&z=5749407529365271 and modified the files listed to create a blank notification panel. I recompiled the apk, added it to my system.img.ext4 and flashed to my device successfully.

When I pull down the notification panel, everything is still there - all the toggles, the notifications, everything. Something crazy is going on, right? I went back and decompiled the apk to make sure the changes I made are included, and they are.

I'm using a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2, 4.1.2, touchwiz - basically stock aside from a couple of added/removed apps.

joehanh88, ticklefish.. any ideas? I'm thinking either my ROM is really non-standard, so none of tickefish's or joehanh's mods are working, or maybe I'm just totally messing something up somehow?
[Android Themes] SpaceCaker:
u have decompiled statusbar.apk?

i will try and look ;)
[Android Themes] evrkusd:
I decompiled SystemUI.apk before editing, if that's what you mean.. thanks for helping with this :)
[Android Themes] SpaceCaker:
could you upload the decompiled apk?
[Android Themes] evrkusd:
Sure, here it is - included the original meta-inf file and manifest. Also, I noticed a 'tw_super_status_bar.xml' in layout-sw600dp .. maybe we're dealing with super files!? :rolleyes: But seriously, maybe the Tab2 has some specialty files or something..?
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
Hmm...well, it's worth a shot. Clearly your device doesn't have an 'ordinary' statusbar.

I thought you had a phone, not a tablet, so looking at the super statusbar might do the trick.

I just had a look at that screenshot you uploaded. You definitely don't have a systembar,which you do see on a lot of tablets.

I'm not near a PC right now so I can't do any compiling for a few hours at least. But if someone wants to try that super statusbar of yours, I'm sure I won't mind. ;)
[Android Themes] evrkusd:
I went back and I'm trying to clear out the panel using files in layout-sw600dp-mdpi, rather than in the standard layout folder. Haven't had a chance to flash it yet (don't have the device with me) but will let you know how it goes.

Ticklefish - I looked at the tw_super_status_bar and some other files that I thought might be relevant (in the layout-sw600dp-mdpi folder, and other places) and they are all pretty small files, which makes me wonder whether they would actually be the right place to put an invis button, or prevent the panel from being pulled down.. I haven't had a chance to test anything yet.

Thanks everyone for all the help with this :)

Oh also, I did manage to make other changes to SystemUI.apk, so I know that it's not me messing up flashing/compiling that's preventing it from happening at least :laugh:

dimens.xml in values-sw600dp

tw_quick_setting_button.xml in layout-sw600dp-mdpi

tw_status_bar_expanded.xml in layout-sw600dp-mdpi

and I got the toggle buttons to remove, but the squares around the toggles and the notifications are still there.

I'm trying again using just res/values/dimens.xml to see if that helps.

Still definitely willing to try a hidden/blank button on top, but not really sure where to start after looking at the tw_system_bar files etc. The end goal here is a blank notification panel and/or a hidden button on top of the notification bar, blocking the notification panel pull down.

Thanks to everyone who is helping with this :)
