I'm going to grab this in a minute. Mind if I ask how you went about creating this? I tried using the miui builder that's out there but got stuck.
Anyhoo, great work!

kind of mix and match and trial and error
I came from X10 and there's a guide on mixing the roms (it's buried deep in XDA but you can still find it at Modaco I think)
It's important to have a well working rom (in this case CM7) to base on
Need to get it boot up and read the logcat and change from there
Going to try this soon just wondering one thing does changing dpi fix icon sizes and/or does zeam launcher have an option to disable app drawer so its similar to miui launcher?
Wiped and installed it twice to be sure. I don't even get to a boot animation.
It just dies.
It's looking good so far. status bar is across the top too. Looks like it's a bit short on the left hand side cos there's a little square black box there right now. Will install screenshot app to take pic

is that an app that creates the home/menu keys on the right side like that or is that how miui is?

I have not tried various dpi yet.
I don't think you can disable app drawer in Zeam. But if you drag everything out or set app drawer background to transparent then it's quite similar to miui launcher.

Try factory reset + clear dalvik cache after install. First boot may take a while

Thanks, for a while I thought my zip is bad from previous post.
I notice the status bar issue too. May need to experiment with different dpi and see.
Just installed, looks great! I did go into a boot loop the first time I tried to install. I then wiped/installed and wiped again. Booted up quick and easy after that. Other than the status bar, haven't noticed too much quite yet but its only been 5 minutes. Will post again later.

More of an actual softkey row across the bottom like there is on ICS roms which don't have physical buttons. Make sense? Ill see if I can find something to show as an example.
Them soft keys. It'll shift the screen up slightly but it'd be decent.

yes the dpi does the trick
Stock Launcher Icons and Status Bar look much better now (but very big)
Use RootExplorer to edit the /system/build.prop as follows:
remove the following lines:
Code:
ro.sf.lcd_density.xdpi=169.33333
ro.sf.lcd_density.ydpi=169.33333
add this line:
Code:
qemu.sf.lcd_density=240
save and set permission to 644 (all read, top write)
Edit: you need also to replace the keyboard file or it appears super big. here is the LatinIME.apk taken from Nook Color rom. Copy it to /system/app folder and set permission to 644
then reboot
Problem
If you install a theme, the sliding down action wont work.

Hi All,
I have (at long last) managed to do a black taskbar, with a coloured battery (With percentage) and coloured icons (V3). The carrier and other text is white.
Respect to Quikt for his modified services.jar & Tina333 for all her theme work!
This theme works on DJSTeve's latest 1.5.0 ROM & Also 1.6.0
NOTE it will take a few minutes to load so it will hang on the boot animation for a few minutes - just be patient!!!
As normal copy the zip file to your SD root. Run Recovery (I use mistadman, because it's brilliant), etc, etc
What's the best app for a screen shot?

I want to try this but it took me awhile to upgrade my US att 1.6 to steve1.5. I am still iffy with the command prompt thing and not sure when to run what.
If I drop this in the root of my SD can I just hold the volumes and power buttons and tell it to install from zip or do I have to do some command line in fastboot first?
If not mistaken I just boot up using volume keys tell it to install pkg from sd card and then clockwork boots and allows me to install zip?
does my phone reset or is everything else retained?
Thanks.
Hey Ody,
If you could drop these changes into a framework for Steve's 1.5.1 so we can have a version for it, I'd really appreciate it!
Steve's changed the animations in 1.5.1, and he's saying that could present a problem with the status bars, themes, etc.
Anyway, I love this bar, and would definitely want to put it on 1.5.1 when I go to it. In fact, I might just wait a little bit to see if you update this before making the jump.
Call me crazy to wait on a whole ROM for a status bar, but I'm a sucker for a black bar, and I think this one's the best.
Thanks!
I installed it over 1.5.1 and everything booted fine. I lost the animations, which I didnt like anyway.

Ahh good call there. I thought that might be what would happen, but I have had these things result in bigger consequences before. Wasn't willing to experiment this time.
Anyway, I just flashed it too with the same result. I didn't hate the animations, but I tend to prefer snappy to flashy when it comes to performance, so I don’t think I will miss them either.
Plus, I have my favorite black bar back!
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
If you find you really miss the animations, you can also take the framework from this taskbar, run through the UOT kitchen, changing nothing except for adding which ever animation you want, then cook it up. Just tried it with the flying animation and it worked.
can you do that and post the zip?

uhhhh, dumb face here.
I currently dont have enough posts to post a link to the one I made. But if you want to make you own, its not that hard. Just go into system/framework folder using root explorer, make a copy of the framework-res.apk file, and paste the copy into you sd card. From there transfer the file to your computer. Then go to the UOT kitchen website. Just select theme only, click and keep selecting the "dont include" option until you reach the animation section where you pick the one you want. Fom there you click onto the next page where you will upload your framework to the website, click next and the cooking will begin. After it is done, transfer the zip file created back to you sd card and go into clockwork. First you clear you davlik cache then run the zip, reboot (which will take a little longer than normal) and you will have this theme with the animation of your choosing.
Just applied this on 1.5.1 for the first time, very impressed, thanks

OP, the issue with a gray background behind icons extends to icons other than debugging. Right now, my notification bar icons for CopyPasteIt (clipboard icon) and Google Music Beta (headphones icon) both have gray backgrounds on the black bar.
Isn't there a way to make any and all icons show black backgrounds?? There's no way you can keep up with every single icon and keep editing to fix the issue..there are unlimited icons that may show up there for apps..
Is it possible to eliminate this issue for all icons?
The icon pack is about half done I am at work right now so Ill do more when i get home, but should be done soon.
thanks for this significant work. the original grey bar really is annoying.

This thread is for a series of Metamorph files I will be releasing. To install these mods, you must have a rooted phone and a copy of metamorph. Some theme features may not be available on non cyanogen mod roms, but there should be at least partial compatibility with every ROM and most Android devices, not just atrix.
Download: Click one of the links below:
LockScreens:
- GunMetal - Simply replaces the default green and red pattern icons with grey ones.
- CyanBread LockScreen - Just like it sounds, this is a FULL FEATURED theme for the Cyanogenmod lockscreen. Replaces default white textures with beautiful cyan ones (as requested)
- Hades - A complete, red lockscreen theme for android
- Kobalt - A complete Cobalt blue lockscreen theme
- Kemical - A green lockscreen for your android.
To use these themes, you must have Metamorph app from the market. Use Metamorph to unzip zip file and then open the XML file inside. Phone will reboot and Voila! New, beautiful Lock Screen!
Please note: there is a bug with these themes that you will get a invalid theme error..just reopen metamorph and click pick existing theme and run it anyways. It will work.
Cheers!
Dont forget to press the Thanks button
This is poppin! Will u be releasing a screen transition metamorphs too? We need some new ones.
Very nice! It set my wallpaper to default though. Is this to be expected?
Would this work with stock rom?
If you can, please make a Rotary revamped buttons (unlcok, sound\mute, middle andorid icon for custom app) that suits the Cyanbread theme.
Thanks !
Installed on Homebase Chronic Blue. Worked great, but it also reset my wallpaper. No big deal though. Thanks
I'm not completely sure what it takes to make all new animations but I'll check it out. In the meantime, checkout these ones:

Yes, whenever you first apply a framework-res metamorph file, it will always reset your wallpaper to a system default one. Just set it back

I think you have to wait for CM9
it may be included in it
Look in this thread. In the first post there are three ways to get the statusbar transparent... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1243590
I have not try it yet , but i will...
For sure it can be done; I've been using transparent statusbar for months now.
I even did it on the latest CM7 Defy+ nightly builds.
I've tried the Z25 patcher, but that didn't work for me so I now do it manually.
So I'd refer you to this thread from krd_medico for a guide on how to do it.
It's all in there and it looks worst than it really is; it's not that complicated and when you've done it sucessfully once, it will only take 10 minutes to do afterwards [because this is nightly specific and have to be done after each new nightly install].
I've also written a new guide about it and might post it later as well...we'll see!
Cheers.
Wows, thanks but that is complicated!

Then you might also want to read my thread here, where I've tried to streamline the process a little.
On Post#2 there I also explain how to get transparent statusbar on any CM7 build. It's a long post but believe me, it's not that hard to do. And if you use my theme provided on there, it ends up beeing a matter of just adding a minus "-" sign and change a 2 for a 3 in one file really...
It is even easier to do if you have have a red lense Defy or a Defy+ since you can use the excellent Dec13th CM7 Defy+ nightly (for red lenses only) as described in the post#1 and go from there.

Well, like I already wrote above, the "all that" only takes me less than 10 minutes to do and is really not a big deal. And since I'm perfectly happy with my own transparent theme, I really don't see what is so funny here...
I might remind you that I took the time to write that guide for the benifit of everyone and to show how to get transparency on ANY theme.
I just went to the market and searched for "ADW transparent" and I couldn't find a single theme showing a transparent status bar in the picture previews of the 4-pages of search results. So it ain't so simple to get a transparent statusbar isn't it?
So why don't you try to be a little more pro-active/helpful here then and make some useful theme suggestions maybe? [instead of what looks like you making fun of me...]

yes, it will if you do what matchung wrote on the post just before yours and use a normal CM7 nightly (not a Defy+ one).
I'd strongly suggest you to try the latest one from Epsylon as it includes the ICS' screen transition AND screen rotation animations.
Finally, go on my thread and look at this post; I've included the SystemUI.apk that has to be changed (specific for that last nightly).
So all you have to do for a transparent statusbar (on the 3 default CM7 themes, my theme or possibly other themes -depending how they've been coded) is:
- Install that nightly and then place my modded SystemUI.apk on the root of your sd card [/sdcard/].
- Open up Teminal Emulator from the app drawer and type the 3 following commands:
Code:
su
cd /sdcard/
mount -o remount,rw /system/
cp -f SystemUI.apk /system/app
--> pull the battery out and back in + reboot IF you get into an error loop; otherwise, again with Terminal Emulator:
Code:
su
cd /system/app
chmod 644 SystemUI.apk
chown 0.0 SystemUI.apk
- Make sure that: Settings_ADWLauncher_System Preferences_Wallpaper Hack
is UNCHECKED IF you use the default ADW launcher OR (quoting matchung here "... on Go, with high quality drawing option checked." if you want to use GO Launcher.
- Reboot.
Still so hard ?!?
PS: I did that SystemUI.apk mod quite quickly and set the statusbar transparency at 10% (and the one from the drop down notification panel also to a pretty low value) --> which is not ideal to my taste.
But you could change all that by following the post #2's intructions - if it's not too complicated for you
Or you can try to install/use my theme included on there and see if you like it.
Cheers!

Soft key mod for CM9DX2
What this mod will do:
1. Enable on screen soft keys.
2. Disable button backlights.
While looking for a fix for this I stumbled on this app: Button Remapper
Unfortunately this app will not work on our device. I think that I can manually do remap them to work how the app works. But this would mean that everybody would use the buttons for the same thing. I was thinking of using them as media buttons as in menu=previous song home=play/pause back=next song.. let me know what you think.
If you want your hardkeys mapped a certain way just ask nicely! Maybe I can do it for you.
As always.. **Flash at your own risk**
Credits:
Evilisto for a great writeup on how to enable them.
Go thank mattmanwrx for helping me with the framework.apk
motcher41 for some help on the updater script.
Many people on xda for threads that I seached through.
Most of all.. DZK for giving us CM9!
How to flash:
Like any other mod.
1. Boot into recovery.
2. Make NANDROID backup!
3. Wipe dalvik/cache. (NO NEED TO WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET )
4. Flash zip.
5. Reboot.
CM10
Alpha 3
CM9
Beta 1 softkeys
Beta 1 disable
MIUI 2.8.10
2.8.10 enable
2.8.10 disable
By going to:
Settings >
System >
Navigation bar >
You can edit and add or remove features of navigation bar. Thanks again dark_system for pointing this out.
Hardkey remap (these will work for all versions even though they are labeled for alpha 4)
Flash this after softkey mod if you want your hardkeys to be media buttons:
Menu= Previous song
Home= Play/pause
Back button= Next song
Please note:These will work while screen is OFF, so if you have issues with hitting the buttons while your phone is in your pocket I do not suggest flashing. I did it this way because I play music off of my phone a LOT and I do not want to wake it every time I wanted to go to the next song.
This zip will do the same as above, but will also use the search key as a camera button like the one on a droid x for example.
This one is made for gamers. It will turn your hard keys into dpad keys.
Menu= Dpad left
Home= Dpad up
Back= Dpad down
Search= Dpad right
And here is the zip for the stock hardkeys so you can try out both the mod and hardkey zips and flash back to stock easily.
The mods here will come from the thread in jsgraphicart's post in this post. Just to be clear, this is not my work, it is work of the developers who make the originals in that thread.
I am not going to make a zip for every one of the mods, but if a couple people request it I can get one made.
Newest MIUI softkeys come with the robotov2 style.
I have made a zip for CM9 Beta one and ParanoidAndroid using the ics blue reflection. (Although the PA one looks funky, not sure about the others yet)
CM9 Beta 1- Will only work if you already have the softkey mod installed.
ParanoidAndroid
You can also do this yourself, it is not very hard.
1. Take one of the softkey mods for your rom.
2. Unzip the files and navigate to system/app/SystemUI.apk
3. Extract the SystemUI.apk files and navigate to res/drawable-hdpi
4. Unzip the mod with the softkey you would like and navigate to the folders with the softkey images.
5. Move the images from the you want into drawable-hdpi.
6. Rezip all contents of SystemUI.apk.(assets, meta-inf, androidmanifest, ect.) Make you have .apk on the end.
7. Place your new SystemUI.apk back in system/app and delete what was leftover.
8. Rezip the contents of the mod and sign using this tool.
9. Flash and enjoy.
Thanks glad someone is working on this, hope you can get it straightened out.

that's pretty neat/weird that it makes your settings app think it is on a tablet.
that's how it looks when on a tablet.

Yeah, I don't understand why that happens. I didn't touch anything other than change the nav bar value to true and add a few png files to system ui. Looks alright in landscape, it's hardly useable in portrait though. I'm trying to find a fix in the thread that I got the directions for this from and it seems like there are a lot of people that posted with the same problem but none posted a solution, at least that I could find.

Yep, I'll put one together for it tomorrow. Still going to have the same issues though.

Do not flash this! You've been warned. This does not work in Alpha 4. Causes phone to hang on the Caynogen 9 boot screen. Luckily I backed up my rom.

If you did try to flash you could have just reflashed cm9 without wiping data.
Also, I'm glad you made a backup.. But the op does states that the zip was only tested on alpha 3.

Look forward to it. I can deal with that stuff I just hate my hard buttons
I love the soft buttons, and can't wait for them to be done for Alpha 4, but curious, is there any way for them to be located on the bottom at all times(Portrait or Landscape Mode)?
I don't think so, that's the way they were designed. I googled to see if there was any kind of mod out there that would do this and I couldn't find anything. It's probably possible, but I don't think anybody wants to put in that much time.

What is your DPI set at? I dont know how android works behing the scenes but maybe the settings app has changed to tablet version because of the DPI. I know my TouchPads DPI is set to 140. I think phones have a higher DPI though.

The default on our phone is 240. Which is what mine is set at. I have no idea why the tablet settings come up. It's supposed to if you change the dpi to 160 or less.. So I'm lost there lol.

Thats what I thought. Hmm, thats weird.
Well I am in the process of sbf and re-installing cm9 after flashing this mod.
Not sure what I did wrong but it just hangs on cid at boot-up.
Be cautious with this mod!

Hmm I haven't had any problems flashing back and forth. And you shouldn't have to sbf, recovery should still be installed, you should either have a nandroid backup or you can flash cm9 again with wiping only cache and dalvik.
Now which file were you trying to flash and which version of cm9 were you on? And what steps did you take.

I was flashing the latest alpha 4 mod file, and I am on cm9 alpha 4. I didn't sbf. just restored nandroid. I thought I was going to have to since it didn't go into recovery at first. But I pulled battery and then was able too.
I wiped the big three and then flashed the mod .zip through bsr.
Then it just stays at boot animation forever. I pulled battery and same thing. 3 times.

Don't wipe data/system reset. This only modifies the ROM.

Also note that when you wipe the dalvik, it takes longer to boot since it has to build it again. How long did you wait before concluding it was stuck?
