Would anyone be willing to walk me through, very slowly, the process of getting the black notification bar? Rooted Droid X OTA 2.2
Thanks!

I want to bump this because i have the exact same question/problem and it seems nobody is checking these forums. i've read the other thread called dark gray status bar, but it's not very clear. thanks for the future help
I am not aware of just a black bar other than the one you mentioned. Probably the easiest way would to put a theme on your phone but for that you need to be de-odexed. 928droid has an awesome black glass theme that also de-odexes your phone at the same time.
Here are the steps if your interested.
1. Download 928black glass deodexer from WWW.928droid.com
2. Get DroidX bootstrap from the market. Open it tap the top button, when it says success, tap boot into recovery. There scroll down to backup and restore and backup your phone to what it is now incase something goes wrong or you don't like it.
When your backup is done use the volume rocker to scroll down to install zip from SD card, then scroll down to choose zip. Use the camera button to make your selection, you have to push it all the way in. When the theme is done select reboot now and you should be all set.

There are two ways I could help you guys out either buy posting a .zip file that you may flash because I assume you are rooted or I can explain how to do this yourself and make your bar your own...

Here is a mini guide on how to use Zipthemer from the market. It is free and it is a lot easier than MetaMorph. Less likely to boot loop too.
First install Zipthemer from the market or click the link above.
On to using it.
1. First you need to make sure its set up for the HTC incredible. Press menu softkey and settings.

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. Press the "Update Script Format" and find Edify - Incredible
3. Now you are ready to build the zip.
4. Press the +Theme button.
5. Navagate to where your MM zip is held.
6. For this guide im using my "Theme Finisher".
7. Now its time to build so click your zip and the program will start to build it.
8. If it was built correctly you will see a log of what the app did.
9. Now use a file explorer program like root explorer and make sure you know where the zip is. (default location is root of your SD card)
10. If all went well just boot into CWM and flash the zip.
Great writeup bro. Great app and I hope more people start using it, especially after this.

thank you. i was getting pm's from members on how to install my zip for my theme so i just made a short guide. should cover all the basics of the app.
I haven't seen this posted but if you want to change the text that displays your name's Kindle that appears in the top left of your screens here's how to do it.
Log into the Amazon website and go to Your Account in the top right. Scroll down to Digital Content and select Manage Your Kindle then click on Manage Your Devices. Now press edit and change the text to whatever you want, you can remove your name as well. Once you're done press "update" and close your browser. Now go to your Kindle and pull down the notification bar to access your quick controls and press Sync, the text in the top left will be changed.

Good stuff! I wondered how to do this..worked for me! Thanks!
Just did this per your instructions (and did a re-register, which did keep the installed apps in place). Thank you!!
For the last part (the deregister), you don't have to deregister. You can always jusy hit the sync button in the mini settings menu that comes down from the notification bar.

Hi,
After installing a new custom ROM (I don't know the name of it, and can't seem to find the original file), when texting someone, the screen jumps to the very top of the messaging thread. Which makes it very difficult to edit or proof read what I'm typing.
I'm pretty certain the ROM matters, and I'm currently looking into it. However, it is one that strips Android down to the bare minimals removing sprint apps etc.
Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?
Thanks!

How do you flash a ROM and not which one it is?
BTW, go to phone info and you'll probably find the name of the ROM
I flashed it a while ago and don't recall the name.
Here's the software information in settings:

Any ideas? I was wondering if there are different versions of the stock messaging app?

Friend that pic is a bit small. I would do a full wipe and flash a new Rom. I use amon ra with great results.
try this...
Use root explorer, and make sure it is set to R/W mode (read/write).
Navigate to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db and delete that file, then restart your phone.
After the restart, you should be able to send and receive MMS messages.
Hope this helped ya, worked like a charm for me!
Hello,
I've recently upgraded from the Note to the Note 2 and I'm over the moon. Everything about this new device improves on the first and I'm so glad I upgraded.
My only gripe is this side bar that has mysteriously appeared and appears on every screen no matter what I'm doing and I don't know how to get rid of it.
As you can see in the attached image its a little tab on the left of the screen
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
that slides out to reveal a tray of applications but it's completely redundant and just frustrating.
Does any one know how to remove it?

Never mind someone just started a thread asking the exact same question while I was making this. Please can this one be closed?

That is multi windows slide bar....... Long press on back button will give that result
Just goes to show, one man's trash is another man's treasure... a week ago everyone was looking for multi view this week everyone wondering why the bar is so intrusive

Damn right By the way, can you add other apps tp this sidebar? I was only able to add FB app
I'm unsure what rom or tweak I can use, I really like multi window, air view, and the watchon app is pretty sweet as well. I was wondering if I can just download the apks and install them on a non TW rom.. I'm currently running SlimBean.
All I really want is my flashlight and hotspot in the notification bar with the other toggles without having to use an app like power toggles and taking up notification space.
Another thing I used often on my other phone is the volume keys to skip songs.
Like this

and i want pigs to fly
mate you got 2 choices either go with TW Rom or AOSP
none of samsung apps or features would work on it for either missing drivers etc... or touchwiz framework
anyway why not just theme touchwiz the way you want instead its the only way to have samsung feautures+Aosp look together
I don't much care about the theming, just that I have those two buttons on a touchwiz rom really

If your on MDL touchwiz build you can use xposed framework to set up volume skip mod ad well as setting up torch to run off long pressing the brightness icon beside the brightness bar in the notification center

I tried xposed, I'd rather have a button for it, does 3minit allow adding more buttons?
