I'm looking at some fascinate screenshots and notice some people have a black notification bar. Is there a setting somewhere for this that I'm just not seeing?

No setting. It is usually a theme that is being used. You will need to be rooted and deodexed to use a theme. There are some in the theme forum that will work for you once you are.
If CyanogenMod is ever ported over then there are settings built in to that ROM that can be used to accomplish this.

What if I wanted to darken the neon blue that you see on the loading popup messages? Could I do this easily myself?
There's a couple of themes that will do it. I use the Frost Remix NexTheme. Good ****.
Oh yeah I definitely know about themes (had about 15 different ones on my droid lol), but I thought these were stock screenshots because everything looked the same except the notification bar.
NOTE: Do Not Apply this mod for Alpha 3, it screws up the status bar. You have been warned. I will see if i can recompile it for Alpha 3, makes it tougher without sources.
Initially i did this mod for my I9000 which was running CM7.1 and i was only seeing carrier numbers instead of names. I have ported this to CM7.1 for HP touchpad. Flash this file in cwm recovery.
When booted up you should see an additional setting in cyanogenmod settings called CustomSettings, tap that to open custom carrier text, tap that and enter whatever you want to show on the lockscreen and notification bar. Press done.
Install the attached notificationrestart.apk and open it, give it root access, press restart and wait for the notification bar to restart. This is to avoid restart of the tablet before you see the new settings apply. Voila, you should see what you put in the custom name. Have fun and hit the thanks button if you like it. Cheers.
If for some reason your status bar looks wonky after a while use this to get back to original stuff. I changed the dpi to 182 using nitrality app and the wonkiness seems to be gone. I am using iKandee theme from market.

ngiordano ( for his helping hand with androiding)
Screenshots of what settings should look like.
I'll give this a shot. Is there an option (perhaps in the future) to place a .png file where the carrier text is? Similar to MIUI? Just curious.
Ok. dl'ing now. I'll report back.
EDIT: It works! My only issues
A) The notificationrestart.apk installed, but didn't seem to do anything. I didn't notice the change until after I rebooted the device.
B) I'm now seeing the 3G bar in the corner (see the image). Is there a way to keep the custom text, but not show the signal bars?

May be. I will look into it at a later time, no promises. If the status bar gets wonky, set dpi to 182 and see if it happens. For me its perfect at 182 (which is what my phone is it)

For now no. once cm team publishes source I will recompile with that.that well solve these issues. Did you run the notification restart app? I had to wipe data of that apk using titanium backup and it worked fine after that. 182 dpi works fine. Anything less than that status bar gets wonky.

I attempted, but it did not run. Did not ask for root privileges either. I simply rebooted and it showed the text change.

Ya, once you wipe data using titanium back up it will ask for root privileges. Not sure why. 182 and higher dpi works fine.

screen shots are from my phone which runs Insanity Rom and its theme.
The screenshot that I posted is in fact my TP. I'm using the Transformer theme from HERE. It ties in with CM's ThemeChanger. It'll notify you that it's not meant for your device, just do it. As you can see it works fine.

thank u sir!
@krarvind
thanks for this! no issues on my TP so far.
as a little test i flashed this to my T-MoUS HD2 Leo since i could never find a way to set a custom carrier label.
it works great on there as well - with one side effect on the lockscreen. any chance this can be fixed? i just did it on a whim since it's cm7 i figured it couldn't do to much damage. no problems on the status bar, just the lock screen.
i know it wasn't built for this device so don't answer if you don't want to
the top near my label shows a graphic from i don't know where.

I have no idea where that comes from and i don't have your device, so i can't really fix it i think. if you want to roll back, all you need to do is open up my zip files and replace the app and framework files with the ones from the rom for your phone ( not from your phone as it has mine now).
Cheers
For some reason whenever i try to boot a custom carrier label my Touchpad never boots up... it just hangs on the cyanogen mod boot animation and requires a hard reset... followed the instructions perfectly. anyone have the same issue?
after some messing around i got it to boot up for me. then the notification bar went "wonky" used the nitrality app to adjust the dpi. works fine. what is the default dpi again?....

No idea why you have these issues. dpi is 182. Anything above that works fine. Remember I don't have the sources to compile it for touchpad, so I did my best to get it
working

Screwed up my notification bar, the resolution is way off and battery percentage is gone. Cyanogenmod won't let me add it either?? The OriginalLabel.zip doesn't have battery percentage either for some reason. Guess I'll do a restore in Recovery. Thanks for trying though.
Feel free to repost/develop this theme for your own - I'm droping support for it, because I've sold A853
I would like to introduce a theme for Cyanogenmod 6.3.5 by Milaq, which looks similar to Android 4.0.
Just apply it by Apply Update option in AndroidianiOR and wipe dalvik and cache.
After that you will need to change clock, date and notifications colors (CM Settings > User Interface):
Status Bar > Clock Color : #c700cbff
Date And Provider > Date Color : #c700cbff
Date And Provider > Provider : #ffffffff
Notifications Color > everything except "Clear notifications label color" : #ffffffff
Notifications Color > Clear notifications label color : #ff000000

It should be experienced only at first boot, because of rebuilding dalvik cache.
Notification Text in black
Hello!
I've double checked every notification color option, but my texts are all black, and therefore they are impossible to read.

Solved: though I wiped cache as told in the description, after wiping again, colors got right.
However, I've foung a bug: If I slide the sleeping device's screen, and the screen locker wakes up in landscape mode, the sliding tab is a gingerbread themed one (not a white circle ICS-like one as in portrait mode).
for those that are wondering: yes, this theme still DOES WORK with the new CM6.3.6 update by milaq.
I am using it (for 3-4 days now), and have discovered no graphic glitches or anything so far.

I can't post in there due to my noob status, but I think I found a reproducible bug.
System Settings -> Interface -> Notification Drawer -> Quick Settings Panel -> Quick Settings style -> Tiles Pressed Background
I try to pick a new color, but I can't really find anywhere to confirm the choice. If I click on the current hex value, Settings crashes. I wanted to try to make it blue to match some of the other icons that are blue when active. With the all grey ones it's hard to tell if they are on/off.
Overall this is a really cool ROM, kudos to SlimRoms team
best jelly based rom, cool new settings and I am using it on mytouch4g
Hello guys i recently installed CM 12 passed from my beloved Optimus G3, anyway i wonder if it's possible to auto hide the softkeys and make them smaller, also if there is any way to get more icons in the drawer ( increase/ decrease DPI i think?) those thinks are huge!
- Also if you guys can give me some advice on what to install next, i don't like CM, will there be a lolipop version of Optimus/Cloudy G3?

Download a custom launcher from the playstore like Nova or Apex. You'll be able to set your drawer and home screen grid size accordingly. Changing your dpi within your build.prop wont actually give you more space to put icons, it just scales the graphics.
Just install CloudyG2 2.2 or CloudyStock and you'll never use another ROM again . You'll see a lot more lollipop development once all the G2 models receive the OTA update.
Thanks, for the info , do you also happen to know if there is a way to hide the softkeys, i don't think its possible to use g2/g3 tweakbox on CM right?

Not to my knowledge, CM12 is still unofficial for the G2 and doesn't contain the expanded desktop mode feature just yet like CM11 does. I say just stick with KK ROMs until Android 5 becomes stable and feature packed (aka wait a few months).

It does? Beautiful! Glad to have helped. Remember, you can tweak expanded desktop mode even more by choosing to only hide the status bar, nav bar or both.
