[Q] How to get transparent status bar background - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I guess the title says it all really, i want to get the background of the pull down status bar transparent.
In GB it was easy, all i had to do was push my 'status_bar_background' png to systemUI and hey presto it worked.
With ICS there is no such file to replace and cannot find which png decides on the background design
Any help is appreciated

i have one you can use but i don't know which file to change in CM7 to make it transparent. does anyone know?
edit: nvm
It's in framework-res.apk SystemUI.apk, but I think you will need to edit some .9.png's...
isnĀ“t it in /system/app/SystemUI.apk
The background of the widget part is in Settings.apk; appwidget_bg.9.png
The other backgrounds are located in SystemUI.apk. The main part is shade_bg.png
Also the icons set in located in the SystemUI.apk

[Q] Need help

Hi guys,
I need some help/advise from xda devs.
I am making a custom theme for stock ddkq8 rom.
So far i have successfully modded framework and systemui and all apps to give a complete feel of ics.
It includes
Big headers
White and blue text
Transparent status bar
Vertical batt with % icon
Blue coloured dialer
Blue stats icons
Removed swipe screen to unlock text from lock screen
Sleeked horizontal progress bar
Crt off enabled
Blue coloured pop up dividers
Ics animation
Blue text on selection
Transparent music app and gmail app
And much more.
However, when i try to make few apps viz settings.apk, jobmanager.apk transparent it doesn't work. Here is what and how am trying to do it
I am using win7 64 bit version. I am decompiling the apps using apktool 1.4.3. Hv got jdk 7 on my machine.
After decompiling am creating a custom theme in styles and using it in manifest.xml to make the app transparent. After recompiling i sign it and push into system/app folder. After reboot app simply doesn't appear in app drawer.
I hv tried both odexed and deodexed app.
I have tried by copying resources.arsc and manifest.xml to old app. Still the app doesn't appear in app drawer.
By now i hv started pulling my hairs and still hvn't got a clue. Wat am missing.
Please help guys.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Thank you,
Glenn
i am not an experied developer but maybe you forgot to set the permissions of the files...
Sorry for my bad englisch
I didn't do much theming when I was in CM7. I know you can change notification drop-down colour but I don't know about status bar colour and others. Anyway, try theme by TeamCarbon in play store. They are best themers and they mod as much as available.
Yes it can be done. You will have to edit the layout xmls to do it.

I can probably do it, but you have to explain what kind of blue you want. Also if you want any sort of gradients or fading or something
Edit: also, what do you mean with drop down menu, which part of it ?

Would it not make more sense to download a ROM and extract the original pngs from the frameworks? That way you get much more than the toggles.
No, because i need also the text under the toggle icon which i can't get manually
Do you not get how HOLO theming works? You can get all that you need from the files in the system. Do you think they're just randomly placed and generated? No they're coded in the Framework-res.apk and System-UI.apk.
If you don't even understand how the system theme works together, I suggest reading A LOT more.
I know how holo theming works, i'm just trying to replace cm9 toggle pngs with on and off s3 pngs which have text under toggles
cm9 doesn't have text under toggles and also they are kinda small that's why i want to replace them with cropped toggles from a screenshot
