[Q] Need help with wallpaper behind translucent notification bar - Motorola Droid Bionic

Hey Guys,
I know there is a lot of interest in having a translucent notification bar, and so I've MetaMorphed mine to translucent from droidpirate. It is translucent, but looks black because the wallpaper does not extend to behind the notification bar. I've found workarounds to extend the wallpaper behind the status bar in custom launchers for other phones, but none of them have worked for me on the Bionic.
I'm new to skinning and I've tried to read up on this particular issue, but I'm hoping someone with more experience can put me on the correct path.
Edit* I'm starting to think the issue is with the stock gallery app requiring you to crop an image before apply it as a wallpaper...
Thanks,
Jason

I 've managed to extract framework folder.I opened framework-res.apk and found a lot of folders.I assume the .png i am looking for is located in drawable-ldpi folder,but the problem is that i cannot find which .png it is.If someone could guide me things would be much easier.Thanks Daniel for your response,can't wait for your themes...
Hey there!
sorry for activating up that old thread, but i'm trying to get my statusbar transparent at the momen.
I think al almost did it, there's just one strange "bug".
I changed all the *.png relatet to the status bar with transparent pictures, that does work for now i think,
BUT:
If my Screen is locked, i can see the background picture behind the status bar, if screen is unlocked, background picture is "cut" under the statusbar, statusbar is just black, if i drag down the bar, i can see that the dragdown menu is "sliding" between the statusbar and that strange black background....
any suggestions or tips?

If you have it working that far i cen tell you how to see it on regular screen too. You need to be running ADW.launcher (or launcher pro but i have no idea how to enable it)
In ADW launcher there is a setting for Wallpaper hack , in system settings i believe. Turn that off and you should see the wallpaper through the statusbar.
thanks for the reply, would be nice to know how it works with launcher pro, that's my prefered launcher...
will test it in ADW now.
I guess there could be some similar trick to Launcher Pro.
ADW is working fine, looks cool, unfotunately i can't attach files here, if i could, i would share my framework-res.apk with everyone here
I did already build 3 framework-res.apk file, theyre similar to each other, no big changes done, just other style of the status bar and changed battery Icons, sothat normal battery icon is black/white, only the orange an red batteryicons are colored.
Launcher Pro doesn't work, there's no way to use it without the wallpaper hack...
at the moment I'm trying to build my own custom Rom, but have to read more about that before i can realy build one...

[REQ] MIUI status bar theme Request

Hi all.
I would have posted this in the MIUI forums but I'm having problems signing up.
Basically Iv been messing round with my themes in MIUI and was wondering if someone could help me out.
See i like the stock black and white bar with the percentage, but was wondering if someone could incorporate this with a black pull down with blue icons. Like the notification area in reDARKend 2.4 Special, but obviously with the stock black and white icons on the notification bar, and completely transparent on the home screen?
I have tried applying different status bars but all the ones with the stock like bar have a white pull down which conflicts with the white notifications text used by the current theme.
Oh, and also can anyone tell me how i can theme the keyboard? I want it blue and blck, like everything else i like my theme to match throughout

[Q] Edit MIUI theme

Just wondering if there's a simple way to edit a MIUI theme? I have Formel's MIUI Mod (now known as KelLMSKing, but I'm still running Formel's last one), and I downloaded the Dark Blue theme from the new one. I like certain aspects of the theme, but other aspects of the original one so I've mixed and matched the two themes for what I like .. almost. The last change I'd like to make: How can I edit the font colour in the pulldown notification bar?
Fixed.. sort of
I fixed this.. sort of.
I downloaded a dark theme that would have the black pulldown notification bar, then when I installed it I de-selected everything (fonts, icons, lockscreen, etc) and selected only the "Theme" which makes the text in the notification easy to read and actual usable checkboxes.
Posting this in case it helps anyone else.

Status bar not transparent ...

Or8 guys
I had some issues earlier with my rooted One and got it swapped and leaving it stock so I don't break it lol. My question is that I'm a big fan of launchers, especially Go Launcher and ADW etc but I noticed that on this phone, the status bar seems to change from transparent to like a solid dark grey Does anybody know if this is a bug with the launchers or can anybody tell me of one that doesn't cause this issue as I'd like to customize a few things but having a dark grey status bar looks rubbish with any wallpaper I use.
Cheers guys

Hello guys
I have been looking for this for too long and tried a lot of themes that they say it is transparent, but when installing and applying that it seems to be it is the same picture from the wallpaper but they blur it a little bit
Is there a theme in the theme center with real transparent status bar, I really want to change what I have (in the attached picture)
Thank you
All the best
