Any easy way to change status bar colour? - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hi,
Just installed CWM7 on my ST15i and I'm loving it, the only disappointment is the lack of customization when it comes to the status bar.
Does anybody know a way in which to manually change the colour of the status bar (pref. to white) and swap the notification pngs to contrast?
I know there's an app (statusbar+) which can "overlay" your old status bar with a new one, but it's sluggish and unresponsive at the best of times.

[Q] X720 Status Bar Transparency

hey guys I am a little confused with making the status bar in froyo 2.2 transparent. Would be great if someone could help me out.
I understand that the file "statusbar_background.9.png" is responsible for the statusbar transparency.
I have 2 questions:
1) Even when I put in a 100% transparent statusbar_background.9.png into my framework-res.apk file, the status bar still shows a shade of rectangle. I've read other posts and they all could successfully implement a 100% transparent status bar without the rectangular shape.
2) This problem did not happen in 2.1. Now, in froyo 2.2, while the status bar is transparent in the lockscreen, it becomes black when I unlock the screen.
or could I be doing something wrong? are there anything to edit in the xml files?
This has to be allowed in services.jar Don't know where in this phone, but it has to be there.
i just rooted my device. then i unstall stock221v13-bugfix-3.
at this time i wanna install themegs.
but i don't know how to install.
do anybody explain particularly??

Which launcher do you use?
For example launcher pro doesn't support a transparent status bar- I used a morph to make it transparent but it just changed to grey- locked its transparent.
I searched a little bit and the problem is launcher pro. It cuts the wallpaper so the back of the status bar is not the wallpaper but the color of the drawer- so it stays black.. or at least grey... I cannot really explain it to you- just google a little bit- it is a well known issue of launcher pro.

Transparent Notification Bar

Hey, is there a mod that allows to make the not. Bar transparent in apps?
Send from my awesome S3!
Not sure if it works only in app but with the 3minit mod you can change the colour and transparency of the notification bar.
not to be confused with the status bar
my bad! @Glebun, Whats the difference then. Just so i can learn and not make the stupid rookie error in future!
I wasn't referring to you, since I'm not familiar with the mod you are talking about. I just thought that OP might have had the status bar in mind. The status bar is the bar on top of the screen with the clock, battery and signal levels and notification icons. The notification bar is the expanded status bar where the notifications are.
OK, my apologies. Thought you were correcting my Noobness! I thought the two were connected but presumed i was missing something or misusing the correct names for them!
With the 3Minit Framework Mod you can change both status bar and notifications bar colour and transparency.

Also, if you use AOKP, there is a system setting in ROM control to manage that.
From my Evo LTE, yup.

[Q] Status bar LG L7 II

Hello!
How r u? Okay, my question is, is there any form to change the status bar look/feel, because I don't like the LG's status bar, especially the grey gradient that they used.
I can't change it with GravityBox because it's doens't change the battery color and the Traffic Data color, and the status bar color doens't change.
Is there any flash zip with CWM to change that status bar? I don't know, iPhone one or CM one...
Thanks!

How to remove status bar gradient

Hey guys,
is anyone out there who can tell me how to get rid of the black gradient in the status bar?
For example in the picture it should only be in red color like the app is at the top. No gradient.
Thanks

I've been looking for a way to do this for a while and I figured out a work around
What you will need
-xposed installer
-a module called tinted status bar
First install the module and reboot ... Now go into the module and go to settings UNCHECK respect kitkat api
... Then go to Google in the apps list and change all activities to number 0000000 in both nav and status bar.... The find the lock screen app and do the Same the result should be this
If I need to install the framework it's not gonna work. I am not gonna root my phone. THat's the tricky part of it.
