Hi,
Is it possible to change position of status bar icons (signal, battery etc.) by editing xml files? I'm making custom theme for personal use and next screenshoot will tell you exactly what I want:
{
"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"
}

I want to squeeze those icons a little bit since I've made them smaller (grey box is actual .png size so you can see wasted space in between).
I've found several theming guides but none of them explains how to manage icon position in status bar. Any advice? ROM is Oxygen (AOSP).
Nobody, really? Should I cook ROM from scratch?

I've created a Theme Chooser/Manager Froyo theme for 2.3 ROMS and I've done almost everything I'd like to do. I've changed the status bar, I've changed all the signal icons, notification icons, usb, adb, battery, etc. I've even changed the icons for and inside twicca to 0.3.6 or something, but for the life of me I cannot get the icon to change for Phone.apk
It's such a simple switch and for some reason it won't do it, no matter how many times I reboot.
So, here is the source directory to add to /<cyanogenmod-source>/vendor/tmobile/themes/ and hopefully someone can compile it with the working Froyo blue phone icon.

Froyo.apk (where the phone icon doesn't work): http://db.tt/xXm5lop

Any help is massively appreciated.
Hi is there a way to edit the decompile/edit/recompile system files to move the status bar to the bottom? I tried searching and all replies point toward running PA or CM based ROMs which we can't do with a locked bootloader.
TabletUI is preferred of course, but not feasible yet for us. An example of this alternative to TabletUI is found within CM7 settings of...
Menu-Settings-CyanogenMod settings-Tablet tweaks-Bottom status bar
and here's a pic of "Reloaded ICS" mod that does it as well...

I would like this feature as well. I miss Parandroid I used to run on my Galaxy Nexus. That Table UI type ROM would be sweet on the Note 3.
Can somebody please make flashable modified status bar for Android L preview version with this kind of icons?

Yeah, I know we already have that kind of status bar somewhere on forum but if you look closely its not, this icons are little bit smaller, at different angle and smaller font on clock, its looks neat. Also the navigation bar has smaller icons..
Here is the picture of both new and old.

should work on AOSP 4.4.4 it was based from KTU84Q SystemUI.apk
and for the navigation button, have you heard SoftkeyZ?
Hello. I just got my P 10 lite, and I noticed that the status/notification bar (that contains the clock, battery, signal icons etc) is changing color matching the color of the application that I'm into. This, in itself, it doesn't bother me that much, but when I open Google Maps it becomes transparent and I can barely read the clock and the other icons, and this is very annoying. Is there a way to make the status bar stay black or some other color? Thank you!

I would suggest to pull down the notification center, I know, it's annoying, but I think there is no solution for this.
I have recently tried Pixel experience and like it a lot. But one thing I dislike about this rom is its status bar icons, like battery, wifi or 3G signal indicator.
These icons are beautiful, but I'm more used to the icon theme I used before, so it would be great if there's a way to custom these icons.
If you still are not sure what I'm asking, I will leave a screen shot in the comment section.
My device's status:
magisk rooted
pixel experience rom
Xposed installed (EDXposed to be exact)
Thank you a lot for spending your time reading this thread, if you have a solution to my problem please help.
Here's the screenshot, sorry for the inconvenience, i'm new to this site.
