Status Bar Background - Droid 2 General

I was hoping someone could help me out with creating a status bar background image. I have edited the files already which is status_bar_background but im trying to add a bigger logo that doesn't tile. Can someone please assist me with what code/image size I would have to have to not have the image repeat and be able to have a background logo?

Piece of cake, you need to edit this file: frameworkres.apk, drawable-mdpi or drawable-hdpi, status_bar_background.png

Theme color question.

Hey just wondering if anyone might know as to where I would be able to change the hue color that is around the recent apps when opened on left side of screen. Would like to change it from being black in ICS, I'm sure that honey comb had pretty much the same setting for this. ANy help is appreciated.
This is in the system UI.APK.. there are lots of icons .png files in there in different folders.. There is a Thread i read here on xda.. I do not think it was in this forum .it was a thread about honeycomb.
I do know you need to be rooted or BE Fairly skilled with adb. I did a search with luck on finding the thread i read. There are also in the themes and apps thread on here some stuff about doing this.
Sorry I am not much help.. Google search is your Best bet.
As Erica said, these options are in the SystemUI.apk
You can unzip the apk, to a folder on your hard drive, and modify the images as you desire (provided you keep the original file-name and PNG format)
Normally, you can change the colors in photoshop or Gimp.
If you wish to modify the xml files, then you will need to de-compile the apk. The good thing, is that PNG's are not really compiled, which makes them relatively easy to alter. After changing the images, just re-zip the entire directory structure, keeping the original file-name, and rename to SystemUI.apk (not systemUI.apk.zip)
Yeah I have gone through and change what I thought was the hue color image in both systemui/res/drawable-mdpi and systemui/res/drawable-sw600dp-mdpi. But the changing the color of that icon had no effect on the hue. Also I would think that it must be a .9.png image but those are not really panning out atm. I have got a dev of themes to get me his apktool he has been using for ICS framework and am going through the .xml files. But I don't have my tab with me a work today so will have to test more when I get home.

[Q] [Mod][Theme] Add new icons to LGHome theme Bunnyfairy

Hi everyone.
First, thank the developer that remake Bunnyfairy theme for G2!
I love the theme so much I want to add more icons. After able to de-compile the .apk using apktool I modified "appfilter.xml" and add a line:
<item component="ComponentInfo{com.estrongs.android.pop/com.estrongs.android.pop.view.FileExplorerActivity}" drawable="lg_launcher_ic_filemanager" />
...and hope that will makes ES File Explorer changes its icon but after build and install new apk (already uninstalled old one) and apply the theme nothing changed... Other icons and style work just fine but ES icon doesn't change
I believe that the name of the app (com.estrongs.android.pop) and the main activity (com.estrongs.android.pop.view.FileExplorerActivity) are all correct, what more must I do to make it work?
Please help, thank a bunch!
PS: the icon used above already exists I haven't added new one yet.
NVM I solved the problem by adding new line into theme_resources.xml
Now I'm facing another issue... if I change ES File explorer icon size to 2x2 it looks blur. Each icon have its large version, and another icons are displayed correctly using their large image when size changed to 2x2 but not my addition icon. I am searching in the decoded source and haven't yet found any clue...
Please help, thanks!

*requires root
Extra the rar and copy the icon file to the sd card
copy the icon file to /system/media/theme
edit the permissions to be rw-r--r--
copy that file to /system/media/theme/default (overwrite the old file, you may want to make a backup of the old file first)
apply the default theme again
Thanks!
Hello,
I'm sad to reactivate this old thread but I'm searching for a resolution for exactly this issue. On my new Mi MIX 2 (running with MIUI 8.5) it's the same ugly style.
So I replaced the attached file with the original version. The white background is gone away, but the icon for "Clock" and "Mi Account", too. Only the app label is still visible.
Is there a way to remove the ugly background and keep the icons for these two apps?
PS: Maybe this thread should removed to a better place, if there exists one for device unspecific MIUI questions
Best regards
Dan
It removed the icon for Calendar in MIUI 9.6.2.0.
Here I've prepared the file "icons" from MIUI9 with some alternations:
folder "res" comes from MIUI8, it doesn't give transparent background but sort of adaptive colour depending on the icon itself, i always liked it in MIUI8 that way
removed folders:
animating_icons\com.whatsapp
animating_icons\com.facebook.orca
as they still gave white background for Whatsapp and FB Messanger
- drawback: google play store doesn't have white background now, folder needed with icons with white background would be:
animating_icons\com.android.vending
download link: https://www55.zippyshare.com/v/4uWe9Hp2/file.html
apply as described above by loudog3114
it is also easy to reedit the file from loudog3114 with transparent background and add the missing icon for calendar from my file but i'm not interested, as stated before i like the "adaptive" background for icons from MIUI8

custom image

Does anybody know how to customize the notification pull down background instead of just 1 color maybe I could add a image?
Anybody?
