MildWild CM 4.2 transparent status bar?

I wonder if anyone have modified SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk with (semi) transparent status bar, or flashable zip file?
I tried few times myself with APKtool but no success.. I would ask at MildWild forum but I can't and I won't spam other forums to get 10 posts.
Thank you all in advance! :good:
P.S. mods, if this belongs in QA forum please forgive and delete/move this post.

Decompile SystemUI.apk with apktool
For expanded change any pngs mentioned in status_bar_expanded.xml
For clock & date delete lines starting something like com.clock & com.dateview from status_bar_expanded.xml
Request to edit

thanks for your reply sir. but please can you do it for me? i do not know how to edit xmls and i dont have a pc. just remove the clock and date in the expanded and if you can add battery percentage, do it so. your work will be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance sir!
also, if making the statusbar transparent needs to be deodexed, just nevermind. i prefer using odex that deodexed ones. thanks again!
by the way sir, this is what i want to remove. thankssss!!
No I'm not doing it for you - learn to do it yourself!
There is Apktool for mobile so you don't need a pc to decompile

If you want that your icons should not be visible.Its much better to crop that pngs and make them transparent.Instead of wasting your time in smali editing.
Good luck...

I think he means resize the icon width so its so narrow you wont even notice there should be an icon there

[Q] How to make statusbar Pulldown menu transparent

I need help sirs/ma'ms
Please tell /guide me how to make Galaxy y statusbar pulldown full transparent.I search xda but there are guides for hdpi or other phones .I need the guide asap
For the status bar itself see my guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2204389
for the status bar expanded either change the png - locate the name in status_bar_expanded.xml or an easy way is just to run the systemui through uot kitchen and just select the background of the status bar to what you want and dont change anything else
http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/
guides for other phones (gingerbread) and hdpi will also work although may need slight adapting
Thanks Sir

the names may differ with rom
all the pngs and references will be in status_bar_expanded.xml and all the other xmls in the drawable folder
If you want to just make the expanded transparent the quickest way to do it is using uot kitchen - the link iv already given
If you dont know how to use uot kitchen then youtube is your friend
Thanks Again Sir
