Click to expand...
Click to collapse
first install those apps which icons you want to display
and then install others

thank you for answering me, is there any other way? cause ive configured them and personalized them, i can kill one app then the icon that was not show will show now, but there must be a better way?!?

[Q] Move Notification Bar icons (rearrange)?

I'm running CM7 on my original Droid. I'm using the phone strictly as a VOIP Phone and the cellular connection is deactivated. I've used Ninjamorph to black out the cell phone signal bars, but now there is a big space between my wifi icon and the battery icon (where the cell signal bars used to be). So is there a way that I can swap the positions of the cell phone bars and the wifi icon? Or maybe just a way to remove the cell phone bars from the notification bar?
I would love to be able to rearrange the icons on the status bar and on the notification bar!

So I've experienced an empty space to the left of my notification bar and was wondering if this would be able to fix it/get it back to its original state? Here is the brief on when this occurred:
I had recently updated my sensation to ics. Everything was fine but today after an application update to Google+ and lookout security, there was a space occurring to the left of my notification bar where the notifications for some of my other apps would usually occur so it looked like there was an empty space to the left before my first app notification (all my app notifications shifted over to the right by one space you can say).
I have included photos of before and after.
You would have to edit the layout xmls of the systemui.apk to tell it not to draw those icons
So basically I follow the tutorial linked above with the section "Switching the icons around with the notification icons (optional)"? Or is there another way to do it? Also, do I need root access to continue with that tutorial?

I dont think you need root access unles you try to adb push the file back onto the device and you cant du to root permissions. But you could always slip the .apk into a flashable zip and go from there.

Hide a Notification Icon without Hiding the Actual Notification

Does anyone know if it's possible to hide just the notification icon without hiding the notification itself from pulldown?
Use case: Yahoo Weather app, the persistent notification in the pulldown is beautiful. I want it to always be there. However, the little temperature notification icon is pretty ugly, and I want to hide/disable it.
Using JB's "disable notifications" won't work since it will disable the entire notification, not just the icon.
Any ideas?
Maybe decompile systemui.apk or farmework-res.apk or where the icon is and turn it into a blank icon as in matches the background of status bar?
Or try to decompile Google now and dig through some xml files to figure out how they do it.
Off hand I can't say I've ever tried and don't have a great answer but may give you a start

[Q][DEV](Java) Make the statbar clock colour update immediately after selection?

hey
I'm having a few small problem with a feature I've added to a CM10.1 ROM for my device, the HTC Desire Z. The feature allows you to pick the colour of the status bar clock, yet it doesn't work perfectly: 1) the colour doesn't change immediately, you have to change the position of the clock first (e.g. if it was to the right, you'd have to pick the "No clock" option then pick the "right clock" option again, or if it was "centre clock" you'd have to move it to the right or disable and select the option you had selected previously. 2) also, not only is the status bar clock colour changed, but the clock on the notification pane (the larger clock which shows when you open notifications) is also coloured, which I don't really want.
Here's my frameworks_base commit
...and my settings commit.
I'd appreciate any help, you may have realised by now that I have no clue how to code in java

Where is the guide you followed.. This is all set up by code in the smali..
For it to change "on the fly" the code in the smali or the mod your reading has to allow for it..
As far as both clocks changing color.. It could also depend on the code, but it maybe an id problem as well... If the mod allows you to change both separately then I would look over the ids you changed in the smali to match your public.xml..
It could be that you link the same id for status bar clock and expanded status bar clock to the same exact Id.. So if one is changed so is the other

How to make android app icon live ????

I want to make a live icon for my app which shows several pic as icon, just like MIUI calender app which shows date on its icon.I browsed all over the internet but could not find a way to make a live icon
Edit : I don't want to make a widget. I don't want to change an icon of already published app, by update I meant the app be able to update the icon on the basis of the data it receives. I want the icon to be dynamic instead of static.
