I think you can theme it using UOT kitchen.

Or use Apk manager and manually edit the img using gimp/photoshop or use uot kitchen like the user said above me

It obviously won't work since the framework is not supporting. BTW I tried it.

so.. is there a way to enable a transparent status bar in the stock rom or not?

open systemui.apk with winrar in mdpi folder extract it find the image that looks like a statusbar and edit it with photoshop to have transparency.

does it matter if i'm on an odexed or deodexed rom for editing the systemui.apk?
-----
okay, it doesn't work on odexed roms. systemui.apk permantly fc and after a reboot the systemui.apk doesnt load.

Any way i have edited the status bar icons (not changed)....after flashing...phone shows stock iconz..
I have edited in systemui mdpi folder only...

I never tryed but i think we have to change .png file like einstein.frat said, and edit .xml file and set background of status bar to #00000000.

Sorry that I didn't see my own thread actuallymy xda app has some problems. It just doesn't show any updates. I really don't know why. Well I just wanted to reply that I actually ficured it out and all thanks goes to Einstein.frats Rom. I took the deodexed systemuiapk and placed a transparent pbackground ongoing in it and it worked. The Rom is m1ndhx8r Rom.
Sorry if I got the name wrong. I have. Also made a theme its in the wildfire s's. themes forum.

[REQ] Dropdown notification menu (Serendipity)

Hey guys, need some help here
I fell in love with the dropdown notification menu of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=965760&page=16
BUT I have no idea how to extract it and zip it to flash through cwm
Is there anyone kind enough to help me @[email protected]?
Cheers!
that part is controled by tw-framework-res.apk ( think its called that you will notice it)
just copy that out of the roms update zip file and push it to your phone via adb and it should work.

Use winrar to pull the PNG you want and move just that accross
Sent from my GTI-9000 Using that XDA app thingy
The pull down bar is part of the TWframework-res.apk.
You need to extract the apk.
change the system_notification_bar.png (or whatever its called. I cant remember off hand) with the image you want. You will find the images in drawable hdpi folder.
Repack the TWframework-res.apk into a flashable zip and flash via CWM.

Thanks for all the replies. Have tried extracting and failed. Totally zero experience in doing such stuff. Anybody else willing to download the rom and try to extract the necessary files?

Thank you
hello
i am needing some assistance too. i coped the status_bar_expanded.xml from the serindipity tw into my tw apk, and im finding this strange error. That graphic is usually the background to the music controls.
FYi i didnt copy the not. icons from serindipity
Thanks for your help.
Normally the bar above and below is the same background. This allows them to be different.
You should copy over the other images.
Note that the music player still works fine.

I'm not sure what you mean by 'get', but the files are located in /system/app/SystemUI.apk/res/drawable-hdpi
Use WinRAR (or similar software) to open the SystemUI.apk

Sent from my GT-S5670 using XDA Premium App
so if you have a systemui which doesn't include these bars, probably the images are still there, only the layout files were changed. go to systemui.apk/res/layout and edit quickpanel_quick_settings.xml (find a theme which has these bars, even stock, and you can replace this file or you can find what's missing)
to edit xmls, you need to decompile the apk, winrar is not enough, since xmls are coded and you need to decode them with decompiling
(on froyo you might find it in framework-res.apk, or if the files don't exist in systemui, which i doubt, you can find tutorials here on xda how to add resources to an apk)

extract the zip files to this location : /sdcard/mclock
might edit the xml to make sure the .png is at the right location.

Probably the app is on your SD card and you connected your phone to transfer the files. If not, it should be on the widget selection window.

My first theme(with transparent notification area)

Hey guys this is my first theme I wanna share with you all.
Please have a look and tell me if you like it. Will try to make it better and better.
Download links:
For the uot package:
http://db.tt/mlLFZSBu
For the dock and icons:
Thanks to Reckoner
http://db.tt/XbZJy2aY
For lock screen :
http://db.tt/DLiedLgB
Instructions:
1. The transparent status bar
Can't be obtained on a odexed systemui.apk so I took a deodexed apk and then nodded it.So if you are on a odexed ROM then you'll have to first delete the systemui.odex file using root browser then flash the uot package.
2. To apply the dock and the icons you can use Launcher pro(tested) or ADW.
3. For the lock screen you can download the apk and place it in system/app and set the permissions to rw- r-- r-- . Please note this apk will run only on ODEXED ROM . This apk is not DEODEXED. (Because I couldn't get a DEODEXED htclockscreen.apk)

Looks awesome. Ill dl it see if it works cause themes don't seem to work for my phone too often. I like the way the bar at the bottom looks.

Thanks for the comment.
Well I can tell you it works with stock ROM or many of its derivatives.
Please see if you only want the dock just follow the step 2
And if you want it with the themed lockscreen then try step3 but for 3 you would require odexed rom.
