maybe u can decompile another installable apk theme? there is *.png for the statusbar. maybe edit this?

Help....!

Can anyone tell me how to edit apps? Customize status bar without status bar gripper? To make own theme and status bar?
just need help.

Use apk manager to decompile/recompile and sign apps it is pretty easy to use......
After decompiling u can modify the png images in res/drawable-idpi for some modifications.. Then recompile sign it and install in your phone... Now u r good to go

thanks!

First Deodex
See for transparent status bar
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2204389
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

[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
