Is there any mod that could change the size of the icons in the status bar ie... signal, battery, 3g/4g/ H symbols?
I just got my nexus 4 rooted and very new to this. I am on the original stock 4.3
Not sure about icons itself, but if you wanna make the statusbar and navbar smaller you can always play around with the DPI settings.
/system/build.prop
Edit the "ro.sf.lcd_density=320" to something like 240. Do note that some apps might be broken or misaligned.
To avoid this, use a custom rom with custom DPI capabilities.

I have search high, and low, and all I seem to be able to find is that you need to have a rooted device to be able to change the icons in the status bar, and what not. Well my slide is rooted, but I do no see any where that tells how to change them, or change the battery icon to show % and what not. Could someone point me in a direction, or give me some pointers on how to change the icons? Mainly the battery app/icon, I want one that shows % in the right, which most apps will show a % but then I have 2 battery icons, I just want the 1.
Along the lines of his question. Whatever happened to the status bar/tweak options in CM Settings for CM7?
They are implementing the color changing through the themes app they are providing. I wouldnt be suprised if the theme process will eventually cover the unlock slider aswell.
Hi,
im trying to hide some of the system icons in the notification bar.
I would like to hide the alarm, vibrate and signal icons because they are always displayed and dont provide useful information for me
I replaced the png files of this icons in the SystemUI.apk file with empty (transparent) png images.
This works, but this still leaves gaps where the icons were, like between the clock and the battery.
Is it possible to change the order (like putting the transparent icons to the left), change the size (hiding them by setting the size to 0px) or to hide them completly?
I followed this tutorial to display some of the xml files in the SystemUI.apk but i did not find anything that looks like it changes certain system icons.
Im using Virtuous Affinity 2.05 (Android 2.3.5, Sense 3.5).
I would like to know if there is a way to change the size of the fonts and icons in the status bar to a bigger size? I think its just way to small. I had the Epic touch and thought the icons and text was perfect! Im on Codename Android Jellybean 3.6 I couldnt find any settings in the Rom but i could have missed were that would be!
I used Rom tool box to change the color of my status bar icons (individually different colors), but the new icon colors are reverted back to stock blue when I go to my home screen. I think that paranoid hybrid (per app) settings are somehow messing with this, but I can't figure out how to get them to stop and leave the rom tool box settings alone when on the home screen (trebuchet). I'm not really sure whats happening because I also have the status bar background set to transparent (in trebuchet), and it seem to randomly revert back to black every once in awhile.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I figured it out, kinda. You can't really mix and match status bar icon colors from both hybrid settings and rom toolbox. You have to go with one or the other....just in case someone else runs into this problem
The new lollipop update has just been officially updated on my new lg g3. But I've noticed a few different things that I'm now unable to change. One being a very annoying one! The top status bar and the bottom nav bar....
I use Nova launcher and there's a setting on there that if your device allows it that the top status bar will be set to full transparent (not just translucent)... this now no longer works?! Instead I have a dark overlay as the status bar and the same applies to the Nav bar. If I use the I.original home launcher then it does at least become translucent again with a gradient effect.
Is there any way to have a FULL translucent status bar again on lollipop without rooting it? As I didn't really want to have to root this phone. But these small UI changes make all the difference to me! I just can't understand why something like that would be taken away :-\
Try the Google Now Launcher After you install it, you can switch it from Settings > Home.
And if you'd be interestedin Nokia ZLauncher, it's a cool new thing, it's simple and minimal. it uses Try to download from Google Store if it says you can't or not compatible with your devide, you can grab the apk file from THIS THREAD
I hope this works for you. let me know.
where are you from ?
