Hey OP, two things.

I use version 9 of your bar. I noticed that:

-The status bar goes back to white when in a call, and you hit the home button (while still on the call). Once you are back in the homescreen and the top bar is flashing green to indicate still on a call, the bar is back to white while flashing!! Can this be fixed in all versions possibly?

-Also, with version 9, when I am at the lock screen, the black status bar is really cool looking, the bottom half is black and going up to the top half of the bar, it fades to entirely transparent- as in, I can see my wallpaper colors right through that top half of the bar.

But when I unlock and am in all other normal screens, the bar is just all solid black, no transparency. Is it possible to get this half transparency to the bar on all screens with version 9?? I think people seem to like version 9 the best like myself btw :)

Thanks if you can do either of those.

my droid x keeps bootlooping if it's not plugged into a power source when booting. I can't turn it off either without it simply restarting. It freezes IF it's not plugged in until it's fully loaded. It still has the black notification bar. I would love to keep the bar but I need to be able to turn the phone off (obviously) and I need to have it not boot looop.

What I don't understand is ... What is the Root of the SD card? is it just the main directory of the SD card? that's where I put the initial parts of this mod. Is there a way to revert this back? I would like to just go back to the white bar and just have piece of mind knowing my phone won't brick.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] makaveliq3:
i just tried redoing the steps im still running into the problem with not being able to turn my phone off... it just reboots....
[Droid X Themes and Apps] LexusBrian400:
Not sure if it is this mod or the settings.apk, but my hard keys no longer light up. Really sucks. Thanks anyways.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] makaveliq3:
I think my problem has something to do with the SD card. whenever the SD card goes active or inactive the phone kinda freaks out which makes me wonder if i put the files in the wrong place.

this is the same problem Im having. it wont shut off. And some one mentioned a way to flash the dx.

Nevermind, got it thanks man. How do I get rid of the menu, phone, and contacts button at the bottom though? The original blurhome? Then what commands?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] just4747:
:D:D any news on this?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] teenfaces:
I will check on the while in a phone call icon and the stausbar is half transparent and half black... it's called smoked glass theme and that is how it is suppose to look. When it is black in an apk it is suppose to look like that too.

Guys, if you are planning on going to 2.2 Froyo courtesy of koush tomorrow, make sure you revert these bars back to stock first!!! Start doin it!
[Droid X Themes and Apps] BB2DX:
I'm not really sure how to undo this... Can some one help with instructions to return to stock to prepare for froyo?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] just4747:
Sure, just download the original files from the OP (services.jar, framework-res.apk, and BlurHome.apk if you replaced that), put them all on the root of your SD card (make sure no other variations of these files are on there, so you don't get them mixed up)...make sure they are all the exact original names (framework-res.apk, services, and BlurHome.apk)

Then connect your phone to your PC and get into ADB Shell and do these commands (again, don't bother with the command line below that has "BlurHome" in it unless you replaced that file earlier with the custom one - same goes for the services.jar one if you didn't ever replace the original):

su

mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system

cp /sdcard/services.jar /system/framework

cp /sdcard/BlurHome.apk /system/app

cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework

mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system

reboot

Easy! The reboot will take quite a while to boot up since everything got reverted, but once you're in it's all set!
[Droid X Themes and Apps] BB2DX:
Thank you for the durections. Thats what I thought. I'm going to try that. If I were to flash the sbf, would that also undo this type of change to the system?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] just4747:
I believe so. I've never used an SBF restore before, but I read more than once that it reverts EVERYTHING back, as if you just turned it on for the first time.

And then you can restore a Titanium Backup or something if you want to get you're stuff back other than the custom bars.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] ncdub:
Fabolois over at alldroid has a theme remover that will revert everything back to stock. Bloat and all. Just used it to get my satusbar back. Simple update.zip format. Can't post links but it's there!!
[Droid X Themes and Apps] weisguy:
I just noticed that the installation of this theme copies 3 files onto the phone:

services.jar

BlurHome.apk

framework-res.apk

But the uninstallation instructions (post #5 + Original Post) only provide backups to the original:

services.jar and

framework-res.apk

Do I also need to locate an original BlurHome.apk in order to remove this?

(Wouldn't be removing this except I want to try the new Froyo leak. Hoping a 2.2-leak-compatible version of this will arrive soon.)
[Droid X Themes and Apps] just4747:
Read my uninstall tip on the last page, it includes the commands to remove them all.

Hey faces, can we safely do this all over again right now on 2.2 do you know? Or is the framework and files not going to be the same?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] teenfaces:
No you have to use the froyo 2.2 framework I posted in a new thread.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] false9:
Framework-res.apk

I'm having trouble updating to 2.2 because of a "bad" framework-res.apk.

I've followed the uninstall instructions (downloading the framework apk from the op).

When I try to update I'm getting a mismatch error when copying files from the update zip.

I've tried a few times to make sure I didn't miss something in the uninstall instructions and I've also tried 2 different update zips making sure I didn't have a corrupt version.

All attempts fail on the framework-res.apk

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

(I'm currently trying the .sbf recovery but am having a different issue with that all together)

Thanks

[Droid X Themes and Apps] bgs_piece:
If I used Metamorph to install a transparent notification bar and I want to go back to stock, can I just replace the framework.apk file using root explorer and then reboot or do I have to use an emulator to push the file back? I know this thread isn't for metamorph, but I was REALLY hoping someone on here can PLEASE help me. Any help is greatly appreciated!
[Droid X Themes and Apps] nycorduroy:
Think you got to push. I would not use root explorer for that, might be looking at a boot loop.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] bgs_piece:
So, by "push" you mean I have to use terminal emulator? I have done alot of things to customize the phone, but have never "pushed" anything so I'm not very familiar with it.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] nycorduroy:
Yeah. You could just do exactly what you did the first time you changed it. Just follow what ever directions from before, but use your original framework. Could also use adb.

Another option would be to use a free app called ninja morph. Search the forums for info on it. It is pretty straightforward. It lets you swap out only the framework files that you want to change.

I am pretty much a noobi myself, so my advice is keep reading these forums and check with others who have more experience than I.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] :
Are these status bars even valid any more? As in, will they work with the OTA Froyo for the Droid X?

FYI I'm running the Apex 1.0 ROM.

Thank you.

Also, activating the copy framework file line bricked my phone (cyclic booting of droid animation)...twice. Had to reflash using "the bomb". I don't know whats going on with the code or file. I'm using the latest droid update, stock, rooted. I'm a noob but i followed the directions to the letter.

Do i need deodex?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] thepolishguy:
Umm - I might be incorrect - but I believe that this thread is not intended for 2.2 ota. I was a little confused by this myself - but I decided since the OP started a new thread for "froyo 2.2" - that this thread is obsolete. Hopefully the OP will pop in and clear things up.

Here's the other thread...

HELP

Okay I followed the directions (copied and pasted to adb shell so no mistakes) and after the reboot, the status bar is the same.

Also, I wish the backing up of the original framework file was in the original post, because I didn't see it it until after.

So just to try backing up the original since it seems the black bar did not show up, I followed the directions to back up the original, and after the command:

cp/system/framework/framework-res.apk /sdcard

it says "cp/system/framework/framework-res.apk: not found"

Now, even when I try to repeat placing the modded framework on the device again, I also get "cp/system/framework/framework-res.apk: not found"

What does this mean? What do I do at this point? Why does it say not found when I try to copy it to the SD card now as well as when I try to mod it again. And why didn't the black bar work??
[Droid X Themes and Apps] xDanVitox:
there is a space after cp.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] just4747:
When I fix the space and try to back up again, it says:

"/sdcard/framework-res.apk: Read-only file system"

And when I CD to /system and do ls, I see this...how come it says framework and not framework-res??:

hxxp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v490/Guts311/CMD.jpg (EDIT: Nvm it is in the framework folder)

So when I try to copy the new one, I get "cp: /sdcard/framework-res.apk: No such file or directory"

And if I try the backing up of the current file on the device, I get "cp: /sdcard/framework-res.apk: Read-only file system"

WHAT DO I DO??? I did nothing wrong when looking at the directions..

EDIT: Does this have to do with me being in Mass Storage mode..like maybe it can't see the file because it is mounted as a drive? I was never able to root it in PC Mode (I couldn't get it to find the device unless it is in Mass Storage mode) so I have been doing everything in Mass Storage mode...
[Droid X Themes and Apps] teenfaces:
you have to have root to perform this mod. If you do not see the # it will not change anything. You said you still see the light gray bar so you have not broken anything yet. Stop until you have everything right. If you mess this up your phone will be stuck in a boot loop. Can't post original file until i get home later tonight.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] just4747:
I already have root. I attained Superuser access the first day it was available, have gotten the phone prompts to permission SU access with the Ninja pic, removed bloatware, done free WiFi tether, have the ninja SU app in the app list, etc..

Obviously I know that already or else I'd be a moron.

So what else is wrong here? Please someone help me as obviously these instructions screwed me over...

I will gladly chat on AIM or Gmail to get help since it is easier, please someone help me before this phone gets ruined.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] just4747:
READ and update OP please!!:

I figured it out. It was because I had it in Mass Storage mode, and the device folders could not interact with the SD card since it was mounted I guess.

So, I changed it to Charge Only mode and did everything and it worked!!

Just a word of advice, put the backup instructions in the OP FIRST and also fix the line in the backup instructions here to have a space after the cp: "cp/system/framework/framework-res.apk /sdcard"

Also, any possibility of getting a black or other colored bar in the framework that has all the original battery/3G icons?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] SkyHawkEcks:
I did this to my Droid X, but it seems like it effectively killed all of my social networking stuff.

That, and the bottom phone and contacts buttons do not work anymore. Just the app drawer button works.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] xDanVitox:
it did that to me at first too but i just removed the widgets and readded them and it works fine now
[Droid X Themes and Apps] SkyHawkEcks:
Damn really? I just put the default notification bar back on there!

Although, all of my contacts are now without pictures... and there seems to be a second Facebook icon in the Accounts page, that remains untouchable.

Yeah, it's not syncing with Facebook for whatever reason...
[Droid X Themes and Apps] SkyHawkEcks:
See the attachment. I don't recall that second (bigger) looking Facebook icon being there before. And it remains untouchable. This happened right after I changed the status bar.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] jgrimberg1979:
I am not sure if any of you guys have used the program "android commander" I use it for everything on my incredible and it almost replaces adb but if you want to use adb a terminal is included in the program. Anyways its great because you can pull and push files, install apps backup app etc and it is all done in an explorer type windows as instead of typing everything out in adb shell. Here is the link, it is by far the best tool for all droids. Here is the link http://androidcommander.com/. I love this program

I did not use the program to push the framework to the x, i used the terminal and it looks great but my question is can we used adb or this program to push framework etc?

Thanks
[Droid X Themes and Apps] just4747:
Yeah all of a sudden now I am no longer getting my interval social app updates like Facebook and Twitter, even after reverting to the stock notification bar.

What did you have us do that would cause this OP??
[Droid X Themes and Apps] eighty1:
As in some of the other post I 2 am having the issue of social net working not responding. I use twidroyd mainly and It has not updated since installing the status bar and when I go into the app its says it failed to connect. Gonna have to go back to to the original apk until its sorted. Hopefully its repairable.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] just4747:
Yeah read my post above, I already put back the stock bar and the apps still don't update.

Thanks a lot teenfaces. Now how do we fix this?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] eighty1:
Guess we jumped the gun. :eek: Hopefully this can all be resolved as we are also responsible for what we choose to do with our phones. That being said the work that is posted on xda-developers we hope to be able to trust that it is tested before given to the public. Lets be patient and wait until he has time to look into it. Thanks
[Droid X Themes and Apps] eighty1:
That sucks! Like I said in previous post guess I will just wait and here from him. May have to do a hard reset after putting back the original apk. I know it sucks but it may be worth a try.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] teenfaces:
Everything is still working perfectly on my droid. I have rebooted a few times...last update from facebook was 6 minutes. Try powering off and back on.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] just4747:
Already did it and tried re-adding accounts, nothing.

I'll assume it's unrelated to the bar thing, but it's just weird. Still trying things out..
[Droid X Themes and Apps] eighty1:
I rebooted but still to no avail. I guess im gonna try a hard reset. Im positive I did everything to the T with the instructions because it rebooted on its own and nothing else is messing up except my twidroyd not auto updating. I still receive emails though so Im not sure what the culprit is. I cant recall installing anything after installing the status bar either.

EDIT: Another thing I discovered is that the battery meter drops from 100 to 80 instead of 100 to 90, only when I plug it into the charger it gives the correct percentage. Did you or anyone else notice this?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] teenfaces:
I have currently changed three different versions with zero issues. No icons were removed and all social networks were still logged on and updating.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] eighty1:
Update

I rebooted my phone and uninstalled Twidroyd and reinstalled and all is working fine now. Im thinking maybe just a quick uninstall of whatever app is not syncing will do instead of reboot and uninstall but not sure. Awaiting the different colors versions :D

EDIT: @teenface did you see the mention of the battery meter falling from 100 to 80 in stead 100 to 90? Might wanna check into that.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] SkyHawkEcks:
I am still having syncing issues. I only use the built in Motorola widgets for Facebook. I just want my contacts to sync. I touched nothing after installing and subsequently uninstalling the notification bar. I may end up just doing a hard reset. Would i need to unroot before hard resetting? This only irks me because a lot of my numbers are pulled from FB
[Droid X Themes and Apps] teenfaces:
The only edits to the framework were graphic related. Absolutely nothing pertaining to network connections have been changed. Have you tried *228 option(2) to refresh your cell tower coverage?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] SkyHawkEcks:
Ugh, i am unable to remove my FB account at all now. Weird. Think i may have to hard reset.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] teenfaces:
The interval for the droid x battery meter is 20% not 10, so the battery icon is accurate.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] eighty1:
:confused:Why does it fall in increments of 20 instead of 10? I guess im not fully understanding because I thought all battery increments fell 1% or 10% but not 20%. Your battery meter says I have 80% when I really have 90% according to my phones battery stats. You dont go from 100-80 it seems inaccurate to me. May you elaborate please? So if I wasnt using your status bar your telling me when I see my battery go from 100-90 its really at 80% instead of 90?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] teenfaces:
It meters the battery discharge in 20% increments by default. unzip the original framework-res.apk file and check the battery images. They are listed as 100, 80, 60, 40, 20, 10, 0 . There is a mod for this, but without a safe recovery or boot loader unlock available I am only touching graphics. This will be provided in a much later post I'm sure.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] eighty1:
Makes sense now. Thanks
[Droid X Themes and Apps] teenfaces:
Social Networks still unaffected by statusbar

I have now loaded over 10 different versions of statusbar variations and my network is functioning perfectly. I am convinced that graphical changes to the statusbar does not change network settings. Note graphic below from this morning with an update from 8 minutes ago.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] teenfaces:
Thank you for your advise. Like I stated in the original post, you must know exactly what you are doing to copy the framework-res.apk. I for one simply can not look at that white bar glaring at me across the top of my droid. This simple mod has worked perfectly for the G1, MyTouch, Droid, and now the Droid X. However, if you have any concerns about this mod DO NOT DO IT....
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Irishpride:
Are you planning on making any new versions of the one with the standrad battery meter? I'm not a fan of the circle battery, but really like your notifications bar, and I also would like to get rid of the white bar, but wanted one that was a little more polished.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] hobby31:
Hello, I tried the red icon version but didn't like the battery icon and decided to revert back. I downloaded the "original" from the OP and didn't make a backup of my original. I installed the "original" and the status bar is still dark but the icons are back to original. Only problem is that the signal meter and 3g symbol are dark also making it hard to read. Can anyone post an original framework-res.apk with white status bar. Thanks

Couple Questions:

When I copy the file to the SD Card do I leave it zipped or un-zip it?

Second, when I run the ADB code I keep getting "framework-res.apk is a directory (not copied)", anyone know why?

Thanks!

Oh and yes I'm rooted.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] hobby31:
Leave it zipped but change the name to "framework-res.apk" then copy it over the your sdcard.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] lucasfinley:
I can't figure out whats going on. I copied it over as a zip file and re-named it as you said and now it says "no such file or directory". It's in the root of the SD Card.

Are you in "charge only" mode?
