[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] :
Welcome to the offical Status Bar Modification Theme for the NST! Encompassed in this theme are three mods:

• framework-res.apk, the file which contains all of the images most Android devices use in their user interface.

• ReaderRMSDK.apk - the stock B&N reader app.

• Shutdown Images - the images the Nook uses when it is either shut off or booting up.

Let's get right into it!

Features

ReaderRMSDK.apk

• All of the battery icons in the status bar are upright, not sideways (more Android-looking).

• The non-charging icons have black bars instead of just a long black strip to show the battery status (for easier reading of exactly how much battery life is left).

• The GlowLight symbol is modified to look like the "brightness" symbol - when the light is on, there are little rays around the circle, and when the light is off, the little rays are absent.

framework-res.apk

Changes are the same as ReaderRMSDK.apk except for:

• All battery icons are white-on-black, instead of black-on-white (because the stock Nook reader's status bar is white, opposed to the device's being black).

• I also modified the WiFi signal icons to appear like the cellular-data bar graph style icons {which is what Windows 7 uses for WiFi (which is where I got the idea)).

framework-res.alt.apk

Changes are the same as framework-res.apk, except that the Reading Now button has been changed to a NoRefresh button. It can be used properly by installing Nook Touch Mod Manager and assigning "Reading Now" to NoRefresh.

framework-res.alt.batterypercentage.apk

Changes are the same as framework-res.apk, except that the status bar battery indicator now uses @vikramam's JB Circle Status Bar Battery Icons so that you can see the exact battery percentage remaining on the status bar.

framework-res.alt.batterypercentage+graymenu.apk

Changes are the same as framework-res.alt.batterypercentage.apk, except that the settings backgrounds have been changed from white to a dark gray to fix the white-text-on-white-background issue that occurs in several places on the Nook. This mod came from [mention=5562185]nmyshkin[/mention] and [mention=2206342]mergen3107[/mention] in this thread - thanks, guys!

New Features:

• Edited Back, Menu and Notifications buttons

• Edited Settings and Search QuickNav buttons

• Edited Settings and Search headers

Shutdown Images

• Changed the "Read Forever" text in booting.pgm to "Rooted Forever".

• Changed the "by Barnes and Noble" text in all of the shutdown images and rendor-0.png to "powered by Android".

• Changed all of the text in all of the shutdown images to be in the Continuum font (the XDA logo font)

• Changed the boot animation dots to a sliding black bar.

Hardware Requirements

These files were edited on a Nook Simple Touch with GlowLight using firmware 1.2.1. Please don't try this on on other firmwares. You can use this on a plain NST without GlowLight.

Installation Instructions

• framework-res.apk - replace existing in /system/framework.

• ReaderRMSDK.apk - replace existing in /system/app.

• UPDATEDimages.zip -

booting.pgm belongs in /boot, which is not mounted by default on the Nook but is mountable through the command line.

The images in the shutdown_images directory in the downloadable .zip belong in /system/assets/shutdown_images.

The images in the boot_images directory in the downloadable .zip belong in /system/assets/boot_images.
