Hey guys,
after being frustated following an untested tutorial here and ending up in a bootloop I found this great thread here.
here are the some different zips - with different softkey "sizes" (48 is the normal size).. please check your fw version before flashing.
for stock roms (253 fw) black background:
25 - X_softkey_25_black_253.zip
32 - X_softkey_32_black_253.zip
36 - X_softkey_36_black_253.zip
48 - X_softkey_48_black_253.zip
camera fix for sizes < 36: X_softkey_camera_fix_253.zip
for stock roms (434 fw) grey background:
25 - X_softkey_25_grey_434.zip
32 - X_softkey_32_grey_434.zip
36 - X_softkey_36_grey_434.zip
48 - X_softkey_48_grey_434.zip
camera fix for sizes < 36: X_softkey_camera_fix_434.zip
for stock roms (434 fw) black background:
25 - X_softkey_25_black_434.zip
32 - X_softkey_32_black_434.zip
36 - X_softkey_36_black_434.zip
48 - X_softkey_48_black_434.zip
camera fix for sizes < 36: X_softkey_camera_fix_434.zip
for stock roms (350 fw):
25 - X_softkey_25.zip
32 - X_softkey_36.zip
36 - X_softkey_36.zip
48 - X_softkey_48.zip
for stock roms (350 fw) black background:
25 - X_softkey_25_black.zip
32 - X_softkey_32_black.zip
36 - X_softkey_36_black.zip
48 - X_softkey_48_black.zip
and if you are running RomAur or XperiaLite (350 fw-based), here are the ones with the modded statusbar:
25 - X_softkey_25.zip
36 - X_softkey_36.zip
48 - X_softkey_48.zip
files are too big for xda, stupid anonfiles renames the zips... so I double zipped them. extract for cwm flashable zips... sorry....
how to install:
do a full backup before installing, in case something goes wrong...
put them on your sdcard and do not forget the fix for the camera effects for sizes <36 !!!
and do not forget to unzip the downloaded files before flashing. the attached camera-fix is not double zipped since it was not too big for xda...
install via cwm
and restart - no wipe needed!
I only tested them myself, so feedback is appreciated! =)
cheers,
glitschi

maybe some skillful can ask in Galaxy nexus thread to how to do it...they could have something like this

oke flashed the 24 size zip and its working. but as stated in the op the back button is big and very very ugly is it possible to get the other buttons the same size as the back in size24 ?
See screenshot :

How can I eliminate a bootloop on stock clean Sony firmare?

I really like this smaller navigation bar but we need to find a way to fix the back button, this looks odd.

Really thanks for this mod..
For wich firmware is compatible? For stock firmware work?
Thanks

Yes, see the screenshot of my previous post here, I'm using stock firmware with only root.
But it should work on all stock based custom roms

Good
Thanks

Maybe it's possible to keep the icons large and resize the bar? That will probably still look nice and is better then 1 Big and 2 small.

Thanks!!
Works fine and for now 36 is better!

fixed back button size
I've found a way to adapt the back button size!
will update dl links in a few minutes... and I've changed size 24 to 25, now it should have same size as the status bar..
for those interested here is what I did:
first I found something in a Nexus thread here.
ok. we have to modify SystemUI.apk for adjusting the scale values for the back buttons (normal and landscape).
Update, I was just too stupid, with the the stock framework-res.apk "installed" apktool worked!!=).. removed the rest of the post...

thats where the fun started =): with current apktool (1.5.2) I was not able to decompile SystemUI.apk, it throws an exception and quits. I tried out lots of stuff to get this working but no luck....maybe I was just to stupid, anyone successfully did this? Anyway, I downloaded sources of apktool and searched why this exception was raised. Basically it had problems finding the name for a drawable... I added some lines to catch the exception a few function calls down and simply returned the name of another drawable apktool had no problems with..
this way I was able to decompile and recompile it again. Since navigation_bar.xml wasn't using a drawable that was not found by apktool I could just make the changes, recompile and put the navigation_bar.xml into the original SystemUI.apk. added it to the cwm.zip.... et voilà.... =)
if someone is interested in the apktool modification:
Inside ResAttrDecoder.java:
Code:
[SIZE="1"]public String decode(int type, int value, String rawValue, int attrResId)
throws AndrolibException {
ResScalarValue resValue = mCurrentPackage.getValueFactory().factory(
type, value, rawValue);
String decoded = null;
if (attrResId != 0) {
ResAttr attr = (ResAttr) getCurrentPackage().getResTable()
.getResSpec(attrResId).getDefaultResource().getValue();
decoded = attr.convertToResXmlFormat(resValue);
}
--return decoded != null ? decoded : resValue.encodeAsResXmlAttr();
++if( decoded == null)
++{
++ try {
++ decoded = resValue.encodeAsResXmlAttr();
++ }catch(Exception e)
++ {
++ return new String("@drawable/notification_item_background_legacy_color");
++ }
++}
++return decoded;
}[/SIZE]

Did you find a way to add menu button?

no. sorry. took me about 4 or 5 hours to get this fixed...enough "leisure hacking" for today...
so, what you want to have is the "settings" button available all the time? I think it is visible if an application wants it? isn't it the three dots?

Only with some apps it's visible. But for example menu button in nova launcher is the most i miss. I manage now with gestures for settings etc, but i miss the menu button

Well size 25 works great now on stock rom. Did you changed something else? See screenshot the time is now centered and there is a new battery icon (i now have 3 battery percent meters haha)

ouch.
I had to flash the AuRom zip since I was caught in a bootloop when I was following the other tutorial for changing the softkey size......
Maybe thats also the reason for my SystemUI.apk decompile problem? that would be stupid. I'm going to take the links offline until I have the original SystemUI.apk modified.
thanks for letting me know!!

[WISHLIST] What do I want from a "PERFECT" custom ROM for Optimus Black?

What do I want from a "PERFECT" custom ROM for Optimus Black??
WISHLIST:
- root + busybox
- clockworkmod recovery (with ext4 SUPPORT, fixed progressbar ;-) )
- adb in recovery..
- Entering recovery by phone app, keypress and failsafe file on sd card
- Gingerbread or Honeycomb icons in statusbar. Don't care about toggles, other colors, etc.
- Optimised kernel + minmax governor and 10% overclock + decent undervolt
- tweaked build.prop
- fixed improved sqlite (see gps issue) as option
- stock sounds + option to add my own ringtones, notifications, etc
- ALL stock applications with option to remove some of them (search sgschlorine or BloatwareBuster on XDA) (se the problems of appinj in Nova)
- Installation of user applications by CWM update.zip script or something like this... (somewhere on XDA is an Update-Zip-Packager script that packages stuff in a update.zip CWM-flashable file)
- Recovery and Reboot options in power menu
- Permanent increased sd card read_ahead cache from 128 to 1024, 2048 or 4096 (see /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb)
- .....
Most of those are included in Noejn's Nova...
The list remains open!
Most of the tweaks must be by default in the ROM.
Others I'd like to be CWM-flashable (statusbar icons, kernel, build.prop, sqlite, user sounds, crapwarebuster, user apps)
or...
- STRIPPED down to the bones "stock" ROM
- al the other options and apps (stock and/or user) packed in individual or small packs CWM-flashable files.
I think than making a highly "modular" ROM will help users to fine-tune their phones as much as they want to...
Most of the wishes in the list are BASED ON AND INSPIRED BY NOEJN's NOVA! Thank you and all the contributors for your work!
OTHER IDEAS TO ADD?

Nice. Do you already have the bold marked things?
Idea: Power Menu with Reboot and Recovery (I hope you understand what I mean, when you long-press power button to turn off and other options).
Which base are you using (10C, 10E...)? I say for compatibility with my themes (Which you can use too).
Thanks and kindly waiting for your ROM!

I hope that you and the other developers and users to help.
So, for now, let's put together ideas!

I posted to you V10E Europe Open framework-res and lg-res .apk in your Gingerbread theme thread as you asked. I'd like ONLY the Gingerbread (or Honeycomb) icons for the statusbar if you can help. Thank you.

Oh sorry. Since it was a question I understood you were looking what you had to put in the ROM. Yeah I knew I had read power menu in the list, but when quoting didn't find it so I wrote it.
You posted the files? Sorry I didn't see it :S . Will do when I get back home in Wednesday. Black statusbar too or just icons? Not popus or buttons and all that? OK

I mean battery, wifi, 3g..etc icons that appear on status bar.
Just like the old gingerbread icons and shiny statusbar that you made some time ago.. The default V10E black background is OK for me.
Gingerbread icons or Honeycomb ones..... Or maybe two frameworks One with Ginger and another with Honey....
Because... what is better than a framework-res? TWO OF THEM!!!
And... can you teach me how to decompile, modify and recompile apk's? The decompile and modify parts are ok for me..but compiling.
Can I just open with winrar, modify and then flash the result?
Thanks!

Gingerbread for sure. Honeycomb... I don't know...
For png you can just drag and drop with 7zip or winrar. For .9.png, you need to compile them. I use x9 compiler for .9.png, then drag and drop with 7zip and flash
Only recompile when touching xml's

[GUIDE] Status bar customization using UOT Kitchen

Since everyone has a different taste of how the status bar should look like here is simple guide how to do it.
What you need:
1) rooted device with CWM installed (for example per Chainfire´s guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1331784)
2) extracted apk files "framework-res.apk", "SystemUI.apk" and twframework-res.apk (use any root explorer) located here:
framework-res.apk: system/framework
SystemUI.apk: system/app
twframework.apk: system/framework
Caution: to use it with particular ROM you need to extract these file from that particular ROM - does not (for me) work just to use core files (like for custom KKA ROM use original KKA stock ROM files)
3) go to UOT Kitchen http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/ and choose the features your status bar should include. Once your selection is done go to tab "file upload", choose on right side option "upload system files" and upload extracted file from step 2. Once they are fully uploaded, go to summary where you can check what is going to be cooked. Then just simply click"submit work to kitchen" and wait for compilation completion. Pick up your file, save it somewhere to your computer or phone. Then just use CWM to install it.
Note: I have not tried this for originally themed ROMs like ROWMO or Sheep ROM so I do not know whether it works.
Confirmed to work for Cassies ROM, MySam and stock ROMs so I guess the status bar customization should work for other (not AOSP) ROMs as well.
Good luck, Haddar

Just upload files as in step 2, leave other options untouched.
Thanks for the great guide. Can anyone tell me where to find the default MIUI statusbar icons? I haven't seen this in UOT Kitchen.
Thanks.
Unfortunately many of nice status bar icons are not "pickable" at UOT Kitchen. If there was an option to upload our own icon set it would be a good time to ask theme dev´s to post them somewhere here. But it is actually not ..... we probably need to use what is already there.
I've used this before but now I can't get it to work. I'm trying to use a boot animation and I'm setting the boot animation to Galaxy type, and the binary scripting to Galaxy. I did manage to change my status bar icons but a few of them didn't change.
I'm galaxy noteOK
In the status bar size option... What kind of size is to be selected? Because there is no option for 1200x800 pixels in the status bar size option... :O
And can you do a small tutorial on the 10 or 14 status bar toggles as there are on the samsung galaxy s2... Please if you can do this it shall be a great help!!! Thanks a lot!

BACKUP BEFORE YOU FLASH ANYTHING TO YOUR PHONE!!
That's how you cure bootloop. Then you just use 3-button combo to get into recovery mode and restore your backup.
This works! Finally found a way to get rid of that awful battery % mod on custom roms.

Can anyone confirm that it is impossible to make transparent the status bar on a Samsung device? I tried to cook a theme on the kitchen, but it did not work, only the entire status bar desapeared.
Any other options that you know?

[MOD] CM10.1 Navigation Bar Height

Hey Guys,
Can't really seem to find any topics on this, I like my navigation bar at 36px running DPI of 320.
I decompiled / recompiled framework-res.apk for cm-10.1-20130609-NIGHTLY and named the zip accordingly and made a flashable CWM zip.
I'm not sure if it will work on newer builds or not though, but is working fine on currently nightly.
Warning: Backup your current /system/framework/framework-res.apk just in case something does go wrong.
Update: Added them to Google Drive (stock 48px and 36px) link is here.

[MOD] - Navbar/sotfkeys 32dp to cm10.1.3 by Drummerjed

Hello, I wonder if someone can decrease the height of the navbar / softkeys the stable version of cyanogenmod (version cm10.1.3) to 32px. I looked up he was some way to do this but do not have the knowledge necessary to make this change.
From what I've been researching which could be modified to do this would be in framework-res.apk.
I left here the framework-res.apk for those who have the capacity and knowledge to make this small modification.
I appreciate anyone who can help me with this.
edit:
All credits go to Drummerjed.
I asked and he made ​​this small change in navbar and now here I leave the arrangement for those who want to reduce the height of the navbar to 32DP.

Need Help Editing SystemUI

Hello Guys,
I decided to try and modify the SystemUI of Stock OxygenOs 4.0.3 myself in order to achieve: Center Clock in Status bar as well as quick settings menu, 6 small qs tiles, 6 qs tiles in a row and only one row at that.
I already got familiar with apktool and the process but I have no Idea what file to edit, I searched through the files but could achieve any change.
I didn't find any tutorials that could help me either so I was hoping someone could help me here.
Thanks and if you need any more information just ask
Basically I want it to look something like this (Resurrection Remix)
The location is here system/priv-app/OPSystemUI
For tutorials, you can try to look around in Op3/Op3T mods sections - the dark theme/notifications have some.

Download the modded and stock Systemui.apk and decompile. Compare the result. You will learn everything only that way. The clock position is defined in status_bar.xml.
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk
If you're using a Windows computer, you can use a program called Winmerge to compare entire decompiled OPSystemUI folders (And all their sub-folders/files) and highlight differences in text files (including xml) between the two. If you find someone who has already posted a similar mod, you can compare that with the stock file to determine what they have changed. From there, it should be fairly intuitive.

Thank you, I actually thought about that but I didn't know a program capable of that, I'll try that
Update: I played around a bit and those Tips were somewhat helpful but I didn't manage to get the clock in the Center .
Most of the time there where no problems applying the new System ui but a few times it just refused to start sytemzui and I was Straight in the Launcher without a Statusbar and so on. After restoring the original apk to get it to work it Booted just to a Blackscreen where I could only open the power Menü and I had to wipe data to get in again. Amy idea why?
Also After restoring a backup of data cpu was always at Max

Also After restoring a backup of data cpu was always at Max

You probably forgot to include the AndroidManifest and META-INF files in the APK. Read up on this guide. It's quite old, but steps 1, 2, 3, and 15 in his guide are still applicable. Pay special attention to step 15 as it shows you how to sign the modded APK with the original signature. Without including these files, OOS will refuse to run the app. Any time he mentions SystemUI.apk, assume that you can do the same with OPSystemUI.apk.

For some reason, OOS 4.0.3 and below will sometimes allow improperly compiled OPSystemUI to run. It seems that as of OOS 4.1.0, you must correctly compile the app or it will always refuse to run it at boot.

Download the modded and stock Systemui.apk and decompile. Compare the result. You will learn everything only that way. The clock position is defined in status_bar.xml.

There is also a need to work with smali files to get status bar clock hidden in lockscreen
