I'll give it a go,thanks.

i want to know why there aren't themes to the notification bar, like different colors, icons, and styles. is the black notification bar on honeycomb pretty locked down unlike on android mobiles?

quite new
Honeycomb is quite new.there are way less numbers of devices out there.this means less development.then add the fragmentation of device spacific fragmentation.
BLAME GOOGLE.for not forcing compatibility across review as such.Ms Mac does forndevelopers.
Less is customizations from lens.and standardized software is much needed with android.
Or true complete open source and forces Unlocked devices
OK I stop ranting now

I've changed the icons for my Back/Home/Recent Apps buttons on my bar. The png files are in the systemUI.apk
With a file explorer and 7zip you can change the button graphics to pretty much anything you want.

I would love some new boot animation same old android logo very boring, tabooney has some great kitchens for boot animation any idea if it would work running 3.2 stock from with cwm

[Q] REQ: Semi-transparent statusbar for Oxygen 2

Desperate waiting for someone to come up with a theme that has 50% semi-transparent statusbar for Oxygen Gingerbread.
Or rather, just the statusbar without theme.
Tried to modify using Ninjamorph, but device would just restart and restart.
So if someone can do it, or give advice on how i can put it there, please help.
Desire
Oxygen 2 Rc6
S-Off
Rooted
Id also like a fully transparent status bar for Oxygen RC7.
I've played around with the framework but couldn't get anything to work

can't make it work
maybe someone can provide a semi-transparent statusbar .zip please
Not only the status bar semi transparent but a full theme
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=852023
I would love a transparent status bar always, on any ROM I use.
I know there are ways to do this yourself, customize it in a way.
but i've read and its pretty hard, thinking of doing this every time after I flash a new rom.
I dont like a full theme, but i do like to have a transparent status bar on my homescreen, like the one in MIUI for example.
Maybe its possible for theme developers here to create a flashable transparentstatusbar.zip for some of the main AOSP roms, oxygen, cyanogen, villain
I would appreciate it a lot.
yup ..... yup .... yup

Oh i was unclear. What i meant was, just the statusbar, not the statusbar menu (although the menu is very nice as semi-transparent too)
Thanks anyway
Solox
I'd like one too.
It's amazing, i have searched through all internet, and still not found working solution... tried different framework files and always ended up in boot-loop.
how hard can it be?!
Why MIUI rom has transparent status-bar and oxygen or cyanogen not?
It seems weird to have old-school win98 style (or worse) status-bar, wen we have such power in our phones nowadays. And I assume that if MIUI can do it, it should be possible...
I hope that someone figure out a working solution. I will thank this guy in advance

[Q] TripNMIUI widout MIUI icons

Can i get normal icons for TripNMIUI.
I love the theme but i don't like the icons and launcher.
I use different launcher but icons don't look good in that.
So is there any icon pack with normal icons for this ROM ?

Tons! Try the android 2.3 icon set/theme
Unfortunately, the 2.3 Icons are smaller than the regular icons and look weird on the regular launchers like Zeam. I would honestly love to know a solution to this problem as well due to the good battery life on MIUI.

I just tried and they were bigger than normal for me... Are you sure you're using the right 2.3 theme?

Fixed random FC after menu text color was changed
you can either change the xml code for the writing or more easily
and better looking imo, make the popup menus black, like how they
are in gingerbread by changing :
menu_background_fill_parent_width.9.png
menu_background.9.png
menu_separator.9.png
These files are in framework-res or maybee systemui for gingerbread, im not sure.
I think these are the files for the menus but have a look and
see if they look like the same thing, you can just swap them for some
stock gingerbread ones which are black.
What's the name of the clock? FancyWidgets?
@esk02k Thanks for the tips, I was thinking about keeping the white background as in the Slate skin but I will probably go for a dark background until I find a solution
@Csharpe Yes it is Fancy Widget, could not find a Slate skin for it though so it is the standard H7C one.
Edit: I just made my own skin for FancyWidget, links on first post.
ok check out this post and a few posts onwards.

i was in the same boat but never solved it because its hidden somewhere for
htc sense. I was trying to turn the menus black and the text white,
for stock android you should be able to sort it tho.
its in styles.xml
I really love the slate theme, will give this a try.

Thanks Man that pointed me to the right direction and I got it fixed.
Great! I like it.
This might just get me back to AOSP! Awesome!
This looks amazing! Thank you so much!
Is it possible to have a launcher with an arrow for the app drawer for the dock? Thanks.

I guess it should be cut from a Desire HD screenshot and edited. I will try if I have time.
Just made a new version with stock gingerbread icons on statusbar but I modified the to glow in blue so that they blend better with this theme.
Zip on first post
Great work! Just tested the theme on Oxygen 2.1.1 and it looks fantastic. The blue is not too strong so in my opinion looks great! Keep up the good work!
One request if possible, can the battery percentage be removed?
Would anyone be able to make this into a Theme Chooser theme for CM7? I'd love them forever!
I am having FCs on Oxygen 2.1.2, PLEASE update!
Can you update this for 2.1.3?

Agreed, this was a great theme.
Updated Theme for 2.1.3 compatibility. I will keep only the version with blue icons on status bar.
Looking Fabulous. It's simple, and elegant....like me really. No seriously thanks for the update, and its a great tribute to not just yourself, but to the UOT Kitchen, which grows from strength to strength.
Will we be seeing a Dev-null version?
Thanks and Regards.
must have on my phone

I do not plan to do a devnull version but you never know
I did this theme for myself and I am happy with Oxygen, If anybody wants to convert it for devnull, feel free to do so and share.

Honeycomb clock font

Hey xda,
I'm on 4.1.2 at this point, but 3.0 was my favorite update as far as aesthetics goes. I really like the Honeycomb fonts, colors and icons. My question is this: How do I change just the status bar clock to the original HC font while still on JB?
I have tried changing: (found at this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=937802)
AndroidClock.ttf
AndroidClock_Highlight.ttf
AndroidClock_Solid.ttf
Clockopia.ttf
and they didn't work. AndroidClock and the related files represent the lock screen click, and when I changed Clockopia, nothing happened. Is the font for the status bar clock in framework or SystemUI?
Thanks guys, keep rockin!
Just so you know, the Honeycomb time font for the lock screen had a solid and highlight part, which needed two layers. You'll only be able to use "AndroidClock.ttf" I think, since it's the "full" version. Not quite exact but close enough.
yeah, the clockopia one is blended and complete. do you know which font represents the status bar clock so I'll be able to change it?
Thanks for the reply.

[Q] Customizing Status Bar Icons

I've noticed there isn't any mods to replace the status bar icons with custom png's as has been done with other custom roms. How would one go about to accomplish this. Really don't like the bland icons in Marshmallows ui. The only xposed module available is for Samsung touchwiz phones. Did a search to see if there was a guide online and at Xda, but could not locate one for Android 6.0.
There are CM themes and Layers mods that offer different status bar icons.

RRO layers overlays provide a pretty easy way to theme your phone on MM. Here's a collection that might be worth a look for what you're after.
If you start using layers be sure to make a backup before applying any, or learn how to delete overlays manually from the TWRP file manager. I've rendered my UI unusable a few times with layers. Like most things, you need a bail out plan in case things go wrong.

Aside from flashing a CM rom which actually has colorful icons in their themes, there's a lot of different white versions of icons for stock based Android roms. Was looking for more colorful icons like the previous Real Icons Theme use to provide.
Yes you can change the color to all blue or some other color, but you can't get different "colorful" icons.

It's Blue Hydra. I did tweak the blue a little bit with Xposed. The hex code I use is ff222cff.
