I want to change the color of UI bars, for example the bar that appears when I adjust the volume or RAM usage bar in task manager. I want to edit the necesary files, but I don't know how to do. I think I have to edit a xml file and find the color in hex code and change it... right?
Someone helps?

I can't find those pngs, In framerok-res.apk I find progrees bar pngs, for example the bar that appears when you are downloading an app, but I can't find "static" bars, like brightness slider bar or volume control.
I want to change the color of mentioned bars, not progress bars.
They are a 1x1. 9.png like title_bar.9.png
Sent un Samsung Galaxia S Quatro LTE
also, editing the styles.xml can change the progress bars height.
Sent from my GT-I8190 using xda app-developers app
It is progress_primary_holo_light.9.png
I told you that they are same, progress bar and slider
I have changed all framework pngs many times and the brightness slider and volume control bar always have the same color.
try this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32092724&postcount=2
no. 9 guide
I've tried that personally and works!
SOLUTION: Edit progress_horizontal xml in res/drawable in framework-res.apk
THANKS TO ALL!!!

hi all,
is thers any way that the icons in the magician could be changed,i mean we change the icon as per our mood??
If you are asking about the icons for the applications, then there is a way.
you can use 'Shortcut Creator' for that
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=275577
just edit the shortcut and change the icon and save. the shortcuts can be found in windows\start menu

Very nice post
thanks dude.
no man,
i earlier had a moto ming,
so when i installed a theme,everything from the icons to color scheme to menu bar colors would change..it's almost like a new phone.
but in my magician(upgraded to wm6) only the nav bar colors and wallpapers and other such small things change....the icons in programs remain the same
if we could get a theme which changes icons itself then it would b grt
neways thanx 4 dis app.

You gotta rip apart the framework-res.apk and edit an xml file in it. then repack and resign (i think). The problem is findint the value to change.
How did you change the color of the statusbar? I also want the white status bar!
I pulled framework-res.apk with adb and then changed the statusbar background with photoshop.. I will make a theme when I have figured how to change the color of the clock date and other things in the statusbar

tried that, StatusBarIcon.smali doesnt look the same in the wildfire as in the one who wrote the guide ones
will do my best to come up with something im going nuts over here trying to find something that work
I made a transparent bar for wildfire.The problem is that metamorph theme i created doesn't work.I want to try and replace myself framework-res.apk,but i am not sure with the apk signing thing.How did you replaced your framework-res.apk?
just push the new framework-res.apk to /system/framework/ folder on the phone
should look something like this when you are using adb:
adb push c:/_folder_to_new_apk_no_spaces/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
Does any body now how to make the status bar transparent.
I have googled for hours and can not find it.
Plz help
the status bar in gingerbread is transparent by default.
I think he means the top bar itself, not the dropdown background. Which iirc is not actually transparent, but lots of ROMs have it built in. Also, I think Kyouko should make it
BANG! from my shooter...
I am talking about the the top bar. I am running cm7.
the only transparent bars I can find are for hdpi roms.

isnt that what ZduneX25's Theme Patch is for, which is supported by the gingerbreadEx theme?
Thanks kyouko. A little to much work for me though
To get transparency decompile SystemUI.apk
and navigate to /res/layout/status_bar_tracking.xml
and change the value to #77000000
and dont forget THANX if u liked....

but how to transparent the top bar?
First off, you'll need Gingerbread. That's the Android OS that supports transparency in the top bar. Second, you'll need something to change your top bar color. I do believe CyanogenMod 7 has an option for it somewhere. You'll have to change the alpha setting on it to adjust transparency.

i need a status bar !
My phone use to be rooted but when unrooting it i accidentally deleted the systemui.apk , is there anyway to get it back without rooting it again ? i tried downloading it & moving it to system/app but everytime i try it says "cannot be moved"
I'm trying to modify the alpha level of status bar icons, but I can't seem to figure out what to change. In the past I've done this by setting status_bar_icon_drawing_alpha to 100% in SystemUI/res/values/dimens.xml, but that no longer seems to have an effect. I have seen references to tw_status_bar_icon_drawing_alpha, but that does not exist in the SystemUI.xml for Lollipop.
Does anyone know how I can successfully change the alpha level of status bar icons?

in kitkat it was a color with a hex-value alpha ... like #60000000 .... so the 2 digits after the "#" is the degree of trancparency in hex

You're talking about in colors.xml? If so I did a find and replace for everything #\d\d -> #ff so everything in colors.xml was completely opaque, but it still didn't chance the status bar icons :-\

I havent checked myself, but I think they are now coded into the Java/smali files now
oh i see ... look in drawables.xml in values folder ... if not then ask a lollipop themer for sure he will tell you

Hi at all,

i've download a cm12 theme and i have to
changed drawables in systemui folder,
but on lollipop nothing change,
i used this methond several times on kitkat and it's always worked,
but on lollipop nothings changes...
i don't undertand why ?
any suggestions ?
Thank for you attentions,
best regards,
Alex
I don't remember off the top of my head if the status bar icons are regular png/pkm/wbp files or vector drawables, but either way it's easy to change them...If they're vectors, find the xml defining the vector and change the fillColor. If they're png/wbp/pkms, find the layout(s) calling them, and adjust color and alpha with android:tint and android:alpha, respectively....
FOUND !
Go to systemui\res\values\dimens.xml
find this line :
<item type="dimen" name="status_bar_icon_drawing_alpha">

change the "7x.0%" to "100.0%" :good:

This question is pretty old and most likely you've found a solution, but here it is anyway
i need code/lines.. edit through apk editor
What exactly are you trying to do? I think you have no clue at all

I totally don't want to look like an asshole, but there are several threads including this one to give your 6P a Pixel look:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/flashable-zip-night-light-round-icons-t3486794
I mean, ofcourse if you want to do that all by yourself, there are several ways including this one http://androidforums.com/threads/gu...mpile-and-recompile-apks-with-apktool.520917/
Edit: animated nav bar won't work for now. The process seems to be complicated to port it over. Give the real developers some time, buy them beer.. or ofcourse try it yourself

Here you go.
It includes codes for:
1) Number of QS Columns
2) Navbar Tuner
3) Night Light
4) Navbar Height
5) Dynamic Navbar Colors
There are a few I'm still searching for if anyone can post them here that would be great.
Looking for:
1) Blue UI Accent Colors
2) Colorless Battery Saver (no orange)
3) Center Clock/Left Clock/Date (for status bar)
4) Bright Light Toggle (in system ui tuner)
5) Double Tap 2 Wake (In display settings)
