I agree!!! Lol...Its in the works...But if anyone has any idea to fix it please do tell. I was thinking about moving the date to the middle of the statusbar, just an idea..

all u have to do is give the date a different transparency and background color, like a half transparent black/white/whatever color so that it overlays anything behind it, this way when u pull down the notifications bar u can read the date, and when u push it back up everything is still clear

Might be a dumb question, but what do you mean by "overlap" stuff?

Id rather have a semi-transparent bar. Still black like the stock one.

If you have nothing important or relevant to say....best to say nothing at all

3.5 comes transparent...
Im refering to the top black bar where the clock and battery are
woops sorry it was getting late, misread, umm, as far as I know I'd find a theme that has it, we have a few made for the Inc. riptide is another theme for the evo I think that has it you can use the framework-res.apk .pngs to make the things you want transparent.

Transparent status bar with CM7?

Alright, I just got a hold of CM7 for my Incredible 2 and wanted to know how I can get a 50% transparency status bar. I looked all over, even in that Meizu theme thread (or whatever it's called) and I still can't find out how to do it. Can anybody please give me a quick tutorial? Please?
Bump! SOMEBODY needs to know how to do this...
I would also like to know how.
I mean, I GOT it and everything, but the clock is centered. Rest assured I am restoring a Nandroid right now. I don't want a centered clock.

it isn't a quite tutorial, inverting the status bar mean, that you need to change the .png of the status bar from black to whatever transparency you want, I use paint.net...
then EVERY status bar icon has a black background.. you need to change probably over 100 icons give or take to have it look correct other wise u will have a transparent staus bar with icons that have a black background.
I suggest using the UOT kitchen. much faster. and it should do this MOD for u, I'm not sure I've never used it but people seem to like it.
download the Metamorph app and search for "metamorph darkshade.zip". The darkshade.zip file will theme your notification pulldown for you. You'll have to do a battery pull after applying the theme but afterwards you'll be golden.
I've tried using metamorph but it does do anything for my Inc2 and I'm on CM7. Any help?

I had this same issue for a while. For me I found a way around it, maybe it will work for you. I ended up making the nav bar an image and the different colored icons part of the nav bar image. Then I made the actual icons transparent. As long as the icon order is the same as the order of the icons in the nav bar image, you would be good to go. You can see some examples here http://www.galaxynexusmods.com/nav-status-bars
Hope that helped. Let me know if you have any questions

Notification bar disappears on Jelly bean as notification center is dropped down??

Hey guys, I know I might be a little picky, but here is my question.
In Jelly bean, the notification bar disappears when you drop down the notification center which only displays the date/settings option and ofcourse the notifications you might have. Notification bar works just fine on the lock screen and mainscreen, however, my theme does not permit me to make it visible on the mainscreen. This was not a problem on ICS, as the notification bar showed up just fine even with the notification center dropped down.
Is there a solution to this? I would really like to see my notification bar with my drop down center at the same time.
not to be nit picky, but notification center is the iOS copy of the notification panel from android.
Anyways, yes, it does make your notificaiton bar disappear, which is annoying since you dont see your signal, battery level, etc. I havent see anyway around this yet.

Where did iOS randomly come from? lol.
But yes, now we are unable to see signal, battery % etc from the notification drop down.

Right now my phone is not locked, that's why. But that is not the point, regardless of that I can still see my notification bar (signal/battery etc), I just want that notification bar to be shown when you have your notification center dropped down (this was normal on ICS, but they removed it in JB)

Why does it need to be fixed? You can't live without battery or signal bars for few seconds?
well its a simple reason why they did this. with the notifications pulled down, you don't need to be looking at the top bar because all the notifications are in front of you anyway. and the date and time is also visible in the new notification shade as a bigger font.

What is the point of using Android then, if you cannot customize it to your own personal preference? I just want it to be more convenient. Especially since the only time I can see my notification bar is on the lock screen.....

Well it's not like its going to cause a huge problem if they left the bar as it was in ICS and every other android OS..... I don't particularly care about the date and time, I just want the wifi/3g signals to be clearly visible with other graphic notifications which don't show up in the notification panel drop down.
If u look closely the notification tray actually drops down and on top of the status bar and is partially transparent on the bottom half of the header.. so I think the answer is yes, in time maybe someone will do a fully transparent status bar header(hopefully getting rid of the second clock for my ocdness). Or something...

Yeah I just hope some one has a fix for this soon. I didn't see any reason for them to remove it in the first place.
I did not notice this until you pointed it out... How long do you stay with your notification bar down?

If you read the previous comments, you would see that I have a custom theme, requiring me to drop my notification bar down just to look at it... Or go to lock screen, which is extremely irritating whenever I want to see that useful info on my bar.
Obviously this doesn't apply to everyone, and I understand that. If I knew how to fix this myself, I would but alas I am a noob who is still trying to learn the way of Android

There might be a setting, Expanded Desktop! Turn it off!!!
If you use two fingers to pull the status bar, you can see the remaining battery and the signal at least

[Q] Pulldown notification clock mod

Not sure if this is better suited for the theming/apps section, but I didn't see anybody asking questions in there.
Does anyone know of a mod or theme or rom even that would replace the standard notification bar with how it looks when you pull it down? With the clock on the left, a bit bigger? That looks super classy and I think it would look good to have that style there.
Some roms havethis option built in the settings, the rom I'm running has this feature, also changing clock color, clock location, battery icons, can even stretch a picture in the notification bar. MSG&Chubbz v5.0.2, this picture is with notification pulled down

He's looking for the clock on the left side of status bar. For the clock to be on the left side of the pulldown is standard.

See the difference my clock is centered but when you do pulldown it's on the left. He wants it to be on the left all the time on the status bar. There are some aosp rom which offer this i am not sure about TW. View attachment 2069256View attachment 2069257

Yeah, I guess I'm looking for a flipped notification bar, with the clock on the left all the time, notifications on the right, probs with a slightly larger/taller notification bar too. Not sure if it exists, though.

Yes there are some aosp roms which you can have the clock on the left side. But if your on TW i really do not know of any of the top of my head. Lots of TW roms and most aosp roms have center or right side only options. Maybe one of the themers can drop in and help out or provide more information.

Right now I'm running an aosp rom, but it can't put the clock on the left. Left TW a long time ago.
