Update: 3/13/13 More thanks go out to the people that were able to get this done. I was able to get a flashable zip with more of bleached45's images working.
I know many people (including myself) are missing the black status bar mod from ICS. After a collaborating with other people I was able to figure something out.
By the way you don't need my permission to do anything with this zip (haha). All I ask is that you please thank me (always wanted to be thanked) and give me any critical advice to theming you have (trying to learn the right way).
To Install: (You must be on ZVB Deodexed to use!)
1.Flash the attached zip
2.Wipe cache and dalvik
3.Reboot
3.Win MVP
I'm responsible for nothing that happens to your phone (always wanted to say that). If your qualcomm enhanced location service force closes, Wipe your cache between the reboot. Otherwise just go to settings/wireless networks/more.../mobile networks/connections optimizer. Accept the terms and uncheck the box. The service is annoying anyway.
Issues:
The edit quick toggle button looks kind of weird :-/
There is a very small line inbetween the quick toggles and the date bar
Thank These People!
AdriVelasquez for the Deodexed Rom
B-Reezy for our original LG port of the black mod
bleached45 - Original theme creater and source of the files, and the flashable zip base
Lrod0175 - Provided the status bar with the cool blue bottom and was very helpful with feedback
pcrhckyman - Pointed me in the right direction for source of files

Re: [MOD][JellyBean] Black Status Bar (Work-In-Progress)
Cool, I thanked you by the way
Edit: the reason you have the white edges is because that's a .9 image and you cannot color the whole image, you have to color the image inside the dots or lines in the edges, those are the ones that allow the image to stretch. You also need to decompile the app to see the points and lines of the .9 images other wise they will show as a regular PNG.

Nope definitely not done. I didn't want to scare people away lol. But now that you mention it, I probably should keep it in.
I liked everything b-reezy did, so I'm gonna try and get it there. Not sure about the battery bar mod.

Hey, I have a JB version out for the ATT variant, I believe you can get the files out of my mod and copy them into yours.
I would offer more help but have class in a few minutes and don't have my computer.
I recompiled the .9.pngs and I believe the file names are the same.
What the files are called I don't remember off the top of my head.
Just copy/paste any pure black images from my mod and the bottom slider (the two pngs with the 3 horizontal bars) and the quick settings edit buttons.
It is mostly just eyeballing what file looks like what part of the UI.
I can't promise it will work, but it should.
HERE is my thread. All 4 JB versions have the same image files, so it shouldn't matter which one you grab.

If (big if) I get a chance tonight and I don't see anything else posted here, I'll see if I can port (read: copy lol) the rest of the files and post a test apk.
If it works I'll make a .zip.
Well, that's the plan. No promises ATM.

Thank you for everything. I used your indi_noti_btn_edit_normal.9 and indi_noti_btn_edit_pressed.9 files in drawable-xhdpi and it appears they are not stretched the same for our phones. I attached a screen. I'm reading how to edit .9 pngs but I haven't had any luck. If you could drop a few words of wisdom I would appreciate it. Specifically, I see the original dots of the png. I'm assuming I erase those in the photo editor and resize the image, then use draw9patch and put new dots in the same place? And if I see a black border on the side of the grey image, can I assume they stretched the entire side of the png? Thanks for everything and sorry to take your time from school, I'm in school as well.

Good luck! Start with simple stuff, like changing status bar icons and go from there.
I would love to see a Black Status Bar similar to the one b-reezy posted for ICS or the other JB Status Bar but without the changed icons.

Actually it doesn't look like the apk decompiled right. Anybody have any tips on apktool? followed the directions with the LG framework but it's still spitting out errors.

Yes, that's correct, shoot me a pm if you hit a wall. If u want download my OptimusBlueBlend theme and decompile the systemUI, compare it to yours, that way you'll see the themed images, then you can start with yours, by the way u can use mine if you wanna add a full battery set from 1 to 100.

Try apkmultitoolhttp://apkmultitool.com/ I've been using it a long time now and it has worked good, make sure u install android 4.1.2 framework-res.apk, you can also use your phone framework, you can do it from the set up script, it will pull your phone frameworks for u.

That is a really good site. Sadly, it doesn't change all the icons on the factory rom. Dang, I'm so close to being done with this theme, only a few things standing in my way.
I was just reading a tutorial on this. I think it was in the droid x forum.
Sent from your mom's phone.
Well I made the rest of the icons, now I'm back to needing to change the clock and date color in the bar.
Can one of you guru's give a noob a hand and tell me what i'm doing wrong.
no matter what i do i can't seem to theme the status bar.
I've created a new statusbar_background.9.png (yes i know .9.pngs are odd)
but i can't seem to actually make the phone take the change.
everything else i try and change shows up with no problem.
i've tried everything i could think of but am sure i'm missing something.
this file (attached) seems to do what i want if i drop it in framework-res on my old phone. or systemui on my tablet.
there is a statusbar_background.9.png in systemui but ????
but on the touch even if i edit the .xml and call it as drawable both as a .9 and a normal .png and i can't seem to make the touch like the change. i don't get a FC i just see the standard black bar. if i just delete the png i do get a fc though so...
I've even tried with a solid red bar just to see if it was the transparency but no go.
is it calling a different statusbar_background from somewhere i just can't find?
Many thanks to the person who tells me how im an idiot
http://www.multiupload.com/YOGY8OQCIE (mirror same as attached)
Ahh yes the dreaded 9.PNG file... it drives us themers nuts... it takes special edit which a little more than I can explain here. Search edit 9.PNG and I think you will find threads that will explain it in depth... probably not the answer you wanted but there are people on xda who have explained it much better than could...
thanks i'll give it a few more shots. but i'm fairly certain i created the .9.png correctly as it works on a couple other devices. and all my other .9 edits seem to work as intended. just was wondering if it was possible that it really wasn't the statusbar_background.9.png in systemui.apk that themed the status bar by some chance. as it seemed to FC if i had an incorrectly made png, but boots fine just with no change if i use one i'm pretty sure works.
just wish some themer had skinned the statusbar at all so i'd know it was just me being a mooley
I'm wondering the same thing, as I've changed almost everything else to MIUI style status indicators just by swapping PNG's in the drawable-hdpi folders. Crysis21 uses an HTC style status bar in his SensatioN ROM, and I've downloaded it to search the files and still can't find where the hell the change is made.
Yea just seems to want to foil my every try. It should just be the status_bar.9.png in systemui and mine seems to work on my buddies international s2 but for some reason ........ Dunno it may take me a while but ill figure it out eventually. Unless some kind soul steps in and shows us the answer

Ok guys,
Im going to post this in every Note 2 variant forum until I can figure this out.. I mmanaged to get a working transparent status/systembar on my note 2 on tablet UI.. the only problem being that my phone totally locked up and being the DUMB a$$ that I am I did create a backup.. reflashed a rom and thought I could recreate it.. I have located what I think the files name is and it is tw_status_bar_background.9.png. Now when I try to recreate it the status bar becomes all distored when pressing something.. I will show you pictures below of it working and it NOT working.. Any help or guidance would be much appreciated.. I am not asking anyone to give me a step by step but more of just yes thats the right file or no thats not it..
PS the black line you see at the bottom of first pic is bc the wallpaper is not scaled properly, which can be fixed..
Honestly the easiest way to do this is to simply have a rooted phone and put ParanoidAndroid rom on it or one that has hybrid settings. It has an option to change the status bar color and you can make it transparent

Are you currently on a touchwiz rom?
Most devs use a hex value for the status bar, very few have a png.
If its a hex, change value to #00000000 where the first 2 digits represent the transparency value an rest is color.
If it is using a png image as you say and its a '9 png file, then it has other things that has to happen to it before you can use it.
Its gotta be patched by draw9patch. Then recompiled. After that, you can do what your looking to do.

Lmao...you are in every thread. ..jesus
'9 files can stretch to any size, from any size. I've worked on ones 4px before, its a pain but its possible. That leaves a 2px area to work. That's how android works. So if its too small, make it bigger. Patch, recompile

Hi, since you are an excellent themer I was wondering if you can fix the dialer/numeric keypad for my
new phone.
I have used your themed keyboards for a long time now and they always looked great and worked perfectly.
Two days ago I got a Note 3, before that I was using the Galaxy S4 and this dialer/numeric keypad below.
With the S4 it had no issues at all, but now as you can see the bottom 3 rows of those nicely themed buttons
are not fully displayed on the screen, the entire keypad/numeric dialer needs to be moved up about an 1/8th
of an inch so all the buttons are fully displayed.
If you decide that you can help me out and fix it for me I can send you links to either the SecPhone.apk and
or the SecContacts.apk or both which you would need if you decided that you can fix them for me.
Everything else in the contacts & in the dialer/numeric keypad screens are working 100%
perfectly and needs no modifications or changes in them.
Here is a screenshot so you can see what I am trying to explain:
I really would appreciate this a lot if you can do it.
Hope you had a Merry Christmas and happy new year.
Thanks!

Is that screen from your s4 or note3? If it's the s4, there is a chance the pngs are just a little too big. On the note tho, it should be fine.
As far as which file, it should be just the secphone.

That screenshot is of the Note 3, on the S4 the dialpad fit perfectly
and the width of it was exactly perfect too.
I would not even mind if there was a slight black horizontal space
between the bottom of the dialpad and the bottom of the screen.
If the png's were made smaller it would also effect the width of
the dialer's buttons which would not fill the screen side to side
and not look very nice.

I really don't know the name of it, it's part of a lot of mods
in @dannyben's "dbMods 5.2 Misc Installer" (Aroma).
His thread located in the "T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps"
forum and his thread is called: "Aroma Installer Misc Mods v5.2.1".
There are a lot of themes, mods and addons in his installer to choose from.
That's where I got this dialer/contacts/callerID combo themed screens.
All three of those screens are a matching set.
Here are the three screenshots of all three screens in the set.
By the way, don't get any ideas about calling Penny, that # is "J.C.Penny" department store's
recorded answering services & the picture is a random photo which I found on the internet.
I just use that phone number for testing purposes.

If the png's were made smaller it would also effect the width of
the dialer's buttons which would not fill the screen side to side
and not look very nice.

I'm sure it is a xml edit. .. not sure where to find it exactly though.

I am releasing my next theme LIGHTS OUT later tonight here's some screens so just take out my seccontacts apk out and use it to fix that. Just so you don't have to search and find the xml which took forever to do!! The dialer buttons are different on the theme but I didn't take any screens of the ones I'm using yet... they're just stock but black

I'm trying to do a little theming with the phone dialer & contacts so I thought I'd start out with some easier ones like the dialer & contacts Silhouettes (see screenshots).
BTW, what used to be SecPhone.apk is now system/priv-app/SecTeleservice.apk. The silhouette images are there and I can change them out but there is no change in the dialer and contacts (contacts.apk changed too btw).
Any of you brainy themers out there can help with this one?
Tnx - TD
How to remove Banner from incall screen:
(Examples in attached screenshots 3 & 4)
Change only the values in InCallUI.apk/res/values/colors.xml to match:
Code:
<color name="incall_call_banner_active_bg">#00000000</color>
<color name="incall_call_banner_disconnect_bg">#00000000</color>
<color name="incall_call_banner_incoming_bg">#00000000</color>
<color name="incall_call_banner_onhold_bg">#00000000</color>
<color name="incall_call_banner_default_bg">#00000000</color>

Ahh yes, I'm importing a theme from a Note 3. The image sizes are very similarly sized and I've used this guys work before. It's pretty awesome if I can figure out the file differences. Our 4.4.2 is totally different than the other builds out there.
I think the file we need to deal with is called InCallUI.apk. I side-tracked a little though because I'm trying to repair the InCallUI file so it will fully recompile so I can try removing the call banner because that method is not working an longer either.

Yes I believe you are correct, InCallUI and SecTeleservice are the main APKs for phone/contacts now.
What do you mean by "removing the call banner"?

An example of the call banner is that large green banner at the top of the screenshots I posted for the in-call screen. It changes color depending on the call status but I hate it, want it gone and prefer the full screen display without it. If I get it working, I'll post a screenshot so you can see the difference.

looking right now brotha....On the S4 the Call Banner was in res-Values-Colors.xml and was incall_call_banner_in_call_background...which i always made Transparent
Sammy moved a TON of stuff around and has throw myself oiff a bit too lol.
Im just a little over halfway with my stuff, but still working on the COntacts and Dialer
GImme one sec, lemme see if i can track it down real quick
EDIT....YWait....are talking about the GReen in the SS? or the In cAll banner when your in an actual call? THere is a Banner for "In Call" and "End Call" which is in the Colors XML in the TeleService apk. THat will get rid of the Banner there, which i reall Dislike. If your trying to get rid of that Ugly green, thats an image

I already tried the colors.xml edit in SecTeleService and it did not work so I'm going to give it a shot with InCallUI here in a bit.

That SS is the incall screen. Is there another one?

NO, your right..SOrry i might have confused ya lol. Some Edits need to be chnage, like icons and such, which have a label of "End Call" rather than "In Call"...
Interesting, some icons changed when I morphed incallui but still the silhouettes are the same. I'll have to go through the drawables and make sure the filenames are the same but I think they are.

i know how to REPAIR the InCallUI apk
Have you done that yet? You'll get the usuall "appt" errors, but it will recompile
HERE
Go To InCallUI>res>values-es>strings.xml
Then go to Line 544 and you'll see this: <string name="throttle_time_frame_subtext">"%1$d% del ciclo transcurrido.
Remove the last Percent sign from this "%1$d%" and make it this "%1$d"
InCallUI will now Recompile..You'll get the usual "appt" errors but it will be fine.

I only use the term 'Morph' as an acronym. I really do use VRTheme. The real Morph template does not play well with TWRP but seems to be ok in Philz but I stopped using it because of that.
Alright, looks like I found all the images for the silhouettes are new filenames in the callui file. I think I better resize all of them to make sure they are happy as well. That's going to take me a little while... I'll report back in later.

ohh sorry lol, ok nevermind, i was just reading one of your previous posts...My bad!!
Ok, I'm getting there.
I still don't have proper images for contact silhouette images though for some reason.
Got rid of the banners as well.

I gotcha. I'm gonna be home in an hour or so. If you want, you csn DL one of themes from the sprint S4 for a reference if you'd like. I gotta do this all myself today, so I'm gonna take it in a bit. There is a Contacts apk, just can't remember the correct file name off hand, but the contact photo will definately be there.

Great the avatar icons are killing me (the ones for the contacts/call logs/favorites). The only ones I can find are in SecSettings believe it or not but replacing them does not help.
Plus, I need a fresh set of eyes.
I posted a little guide on the OP to remove the banner from the call screens.
It is different than previous versions btw.

I actually like the banner. Would be cool if it was blue when connected and then red when ended though haha.
