The one and only way to change your notification bar is root. The notification bar is part of the framework-res.apk in the system. To modify this file in anyway you need root. Sorry your out of luck

Check out G.O.T's Openrecovery......it will allow you to root if you haven't already and has a nice theme included with a black notification bar!
Am using it right now and looks good...although I would suggest not installing the fonts as they are slightly messed up on the new update.

It doesn't work for the 02.38 leaked build from GOT Team...or rather, it works but it mess up all the text, because Motorola have made some changes in framework-res.apk on that build. With the past build, 02.31, it works flawlessly.

You can try to remove got theme, in OpenRecovery folder delete "fonts" and retry applying theme. It should go

I wasn't referring to the GOT Theme (I've tried it and it works, even if I don't like it that much) but to the SenseUI/Black notification bar linked by iamdarren on droidforums.net, it confuses some texts on the Shols_2.38. For example when you want to shut down the phone, it shows "airplane mode" instead of "shut down phone" and other things like that.

I know it's an old thread, but ia am also looking for a black notification bar.
Using Telus build 3.11.
Anyone th files?

does anyone know if this works on milestone xt720 eu ver? and 2.1 upd-1

The ss evo theme for droid (has to be installed over simply stunning 4.7) has a nice notification bar. Dunno if u can install just the bar though. :/

Usually themes aren't ROM specific, they are Version specific. (2.2 themes wont work on 2.3 and vice versa) and maybe MIUI themes will not work with Cyanogen Mod.
Hope it helps,

[MOD] KF1 AOSP Lockscreen

I have modified the android.policy.jar for the leaked captivate gingerbread (UCKF1) to replace the glass lock screen with AOSP lockscreen as it gives you more control from the lockscreen itself.
It replaces your Glasslockscreen with AOSP lockscreen permanently. There is no option to switch between them for now. So use it till devs incorporate the multi-lockscreen mod in their ROMS
Use at your own risk.
It is based on stock theme, you will leave all theme mods
Looks like there is some problem with external sd card with this rom. People are facing it even on fresh installs of the rom without modded file. Make sure you have a perfectly working rom before you try this file. Try rebooting and making sure that your apps on sdcard are still there before you install this app.
Instructions:
1. download KF1AOSPlockscreen.zip
2. apply from CWM
3. Reboot and Enjoy
Initial boot might take some time as it has to rebuild dalvik-cache
For Reverting.
1. Download the KF1Glasslockscreen.zip file.
2. Apply from CWM
3. Reboot
EDIT: Only works on deodexed ROMS
Thanks to:
1. DG : for his cog5 b2
2. amosher13: for the excellent guide for modding lockscreen
And all other who I might have forgotten.
Nice! I installed it, and it worked with no problems.
Works great, thanks!

It does work.
If it doesn't, it's probably user error. Mine works great.
Only minor thing to report is that I can't switch the lockscreen wallpaper. I can pick one, it just won't show up and still displays my current homescreen wallpaper. Doesn't affect usability though. Working flawless.

I agree,as development and general are the only thread I really check , so just didn't occur to me. Sorry about that.
I would be glad if some moderator can move it.
Everything worked. Thanks for this. So much better then the glass lock screen.

[MOD][KJ3] 9 QuickPanel Toggle Options

Modded version of SystemUI to add 9 Toggle functions to the QuickPanel. There is also longpress options to go directly to the setting.
I have only tested this on KJ3 so I'm not sure if it'll work on previous versions or not. Use at your own risk.
Special thanks to crt60 for helping me get this running in KJ3

Deodexed and CWM ready. Enjoy
Nice. thank you.
I missed this feature coming from i9000 bl to att bl. Thanks a lot.

If running a custom version of ROM KJx, will this also change my battery, clock, data and wifi icons in the notification bar at the top of the drawer back to stock?
Awesome, I extracted the systemui.apk and used root explorer to drop it in system/app then rebooted and it worked flawlessly! Thanks for this.
Yes some of the bar icons are controlled by SystemUI.apk, but also from framework-res.apk so I'm not exactly sure what would change.
I had a similar situation with a previous rom where sometimes my signal bars world be white and sometimes green because the framework file had green icons and my sysui file had white.
Its best to backup your files, in this case SystemUI.apk, before trying out a new one

Awesome mod!! Been wanting this for a while now. I was even trying to get this done myself but it just didn't work. I can report this works!! Thank you for this!!
There are two small things I noticed I just thought I would mention though. Carrier name is not shown in the drop down, and when I scroll to any side, there is no overscroll glow on the sides. I am using crt60's power menu and crt off mods.

it appears that this only works for deodexed ROM
tried it after flashing the KJ3 odin one click and status bar will not start keeps force closing
IM assuming that if one was to deodex the stock rom it would work
but wouldn't it be simpler to make a package like this that works on stock odexed?
Actually if i remember correctly it is more difficult to theme an odexed rom as opposed to a deodexed.
How easy would it be to re-odex this package so it would work on an odexed ROM? Is that some thing i could do myself?
If so how? Im sure there are other people wondering the same thing.
I would love to have the 9toggles but it seems this is impossible with an odexed rom. why-o-why?
I installed your system.ui apk with root explorer sucessfully onto Fasty's KJ1...only changes were; lost transparent dropdown and logo, and 'H' is now 3G only (native to KJ3?), and wifi + data icon are stock...these are all non-issues for me as the usefulness of the 9 toggle trade-off is well worth it! Fasty's KJ1 battery icon (personal favorite) remained! Thanks.
Same result as above. Thanks.
This is Blitz76's 9 QuickPanel Toggle with the over scroll fixed.
That was my bad.....

Thanks crt60, I tried the update you posted but I still don't see the overscroll glow. I flashed from cwm, then I tried just copying and pasting w/ root explorer. Am I doing something wrong?
Oh and did you guys remove the provider name from the drop down on purpose?

The over scroll I'm talking about is when you scroll it, it went too far to the left. I have absolutely nothing to do with the code, I just assisted with some graphics.
There is no "you guys" about it. Its all blitz76. I wouldn't have even posted this fix if I didn't think he was really busy and might not be back for a few days.
Does it work on KJ2 ?
Anyone try on KH3 Pinnacle 1.3?

Also got FC but managed to get it working.
Use a file manager to mount /system/app rw then rename SystemUI.odex to SystemUI.odex.old, then reboot. This should fix the issue.
However I noticed that carrier name is now gone from pulldown menu, is it by design?

you have to manually push them in to system/app(or folder they were in originally) and give them the r-w-r-r(0644) permisions

As long as you are rooted use an app like root explorer from playstore and you go to system then app and make sure you copy the app you want to replace to a safe place and put the new one in(the new one probably won't have an index so delete it from the system/app) and put permissions
