Depending on how it was implemented by the manufacturer it may be possible to use Androids integrated System UI tuner and its status bar settings.
You can access it via developer options or by using an app like this:
System UI Tuner - Apps on Google Play
Shortcut to the hidden System UI Tuner tool in Android 9 and newer.
play.google.com

Thanks but I tried it didn't work .

Then you have to life with the logo because the status bar customizing is placed in Android framework related files you can't replace easily.

Can't I access system files and delete png? This ad is making me very uncomfortable.

I don't know your unit so I can't tell you how to access file system in write mode.
I expect the logo is placed inside one of the basic jar files in framework folder on system partition.
Theoretically it would be possible to replace it with a fully transparent png but I (maybe) can only help if you somehow manage to get full system access.

Excellent finding.
It may be possible to flash an alternative firmware.

be careful. read the instructions and get a complete DUMP. There is also a scatter file and test points if you get a brick. It is a warning that these units do not work with the SP Flash tool for more than 5 minutes. There may not be time to upload the new firmware. Be aware of that. Let us know how you progress

You only can't change Buttons (Yes/No).
Check this my custom theme on attachment.
where should i copy this files, in win root?
any pics?
It was Kitchmen package, but you can install it manually.
Extract it, copy files in \amarullz_GreenBlack\files\*.* into \Windows
And change your themes in Start Menu->Settings->Today
i am also using visual kitchen, will put it in...
EDIT: well only thing i got new is scroll bar, and green selecting, can i somehow keep scrollbar and have blue selecting?
also how to get vista/win7 wait animation?

You can edit the Images. There is "listViewSelector.ManilaGreen.png" and other files ( I think you know the image will show in which area just by read the filename ). For system color, you should edit the ClassicGreen.tsk file with WinCECab Manager.
For your message box design, you can easily edit the "msgboxBorder.ManilaGreen.png", and "msgboxTitle.ManilaGreen.png".
For vista wait animation, you need to edit the dll file with reshack, try to find it, it was available in some thread..
sorry for my english
i will try "msgboxBorder.ManilaGreen.png", and "msgboxTitle.ManilaGreen.png".
but for dll, i will need to request....

I am very new to the android hacking community so please forgive my ignorance. But is this a program that allows you to create a boot animation for your device?

Assuming you've rooted your device then yes.
Works lang a charm I finally modified my bootanimation using this. One thing though I made a mistake on the command prior making it work.
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/custom/resource (should be customize) How can I remove that. Btw Thanks a lot 2 thumbs up to you.
How to use (I'm stupid so i need instructions) Please
Ill change that now :L
Depending on your phone it has different locations for the bootanimation.
If you tick all the boxes then hit backup open each file until you recognized one as the one you see at the boot screen then simply overwrite that with a custom one. Keeping a backup of course incase it doesnt work properly.
very nice idea! good job!

It doesn't let you create one, but it can set one recover and backup current ones etc.
please explain more
I don't understand at all how to use it ...... :'(

[APP] MIUI Compatible System Font Changer

Hi everyone,
I have seen a few people in search of a way to change the system font in MIUI to a preferred font of their choice. While browsing the Android Apps & Games section, I came across a thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=874658) created by user martino2k6, who is also the developer of an app called 'Font Changer Lite' (paid version also available).
This app basically does what it says on the tin. After installing, it allows you to select from a range of compatible font formats which you place in the .fontchanger directory located in the root of your SD card. The only drawback is that it requires you to have the NAND unlocked (S-OFF), as it requires r/w access to the /system/fonts partition (full root) while the phone is powered on, just like MetaMorph does.
I think its a great app, and one that is definately worth purchasing.
Note: This app will also work with non-MIUI ROMs.
Picture of my home screen with slightly modified Ubuntu font:

You dont really need an app for this. just follow these simple instructions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9782857&postcount=3805
If you're s-offed and have root explorer then you can use the above method. If youre s-on and/or don't have root explorer then you can push the files by adb instead

[bootanimation]tweaked ics

Stock is too bright and shows too much color banding
Adjusted the gamma on the images. Made darker and colors little more vibrant
Install:
Flash threw CWR
Alternate install methods [root required]
Use the bootanimation.zip below
Place in data/local folder then reboot
no need to set permissions leave as is
this will bypass default animation and when you want to revert back simply delete from local folder and will default back to stock
one thank to me for resize
a lot of thanks to demo23019 for this great work(for the nexus s device)

Yes its good and its work thanks
For those of you on MIUI like me, I'll provide the steps to install it.
1. Download the boot-file.zip containing the "bootanimation" file.
2. Extract the file and place it in system/bin, replacing the old boot animation file (make sure there is no extension at the end, just bootanimation)
3. Give it the permissions using Root Explorer or equivalent: rwx-rx-rx (rwxrxrx)
4. Download ics_tweaked.mtz and place it in sdcard/MIUI/themes
5. Reboot, and them go Settings>Themes>Customize>Boot Animation> The new animation should be there.
6. Select it, Reboot, and Enjoy!
NOTE. If it isn't there, look at all the boot animations that are there, if there is one with no preview, select that one. That should be one containing the new animation.
*DISCLAIMER* This method worked for me and results may vary.
Works flawlessly, thanks.
Great boot animation and very easy to install.
Sent from my Huawei u8800 using XDA
Will this work on the Rezound I would really like this one looks nice.
When start booting animation little bit laging, but later everything ok. Best boot animation for me.
Thanks for this great animation, works like a charm

[MTCD/E][PX5][THEME] Radio red & black

Hello,
I've just modded the px5 radio for my personal use, so I share it here if it can be useful to others as well. Sorry for the bad picture, it renders way better in real.
I've only tested with 1024*600 resolution.
Ideas of improvement are welcomed!

Hy m8!
Great work I was also trying to change for myself, but I gave up reverse engineering (takes too long) I am a software developer and I would appreciate, if you could share your source code with me? Background: i want to create a custom style for my old mercedes with new android head unit px5. What do you say? Or explain what to do exactly... On the other hand - promise - I will share with community too!

This is no rocket sience...
Your unit needs to be rooted!
Search for the related apps on your device, copy them to a stick.
Extract the APK with 7z and search there for the background picture in the folder "res".
Create a background picture in the same size as your screen resolution (1024x600) and name it exactly as the found background picture.
Just now use 7z to open the APK file (do not extract) move to the folder you found the background while it´s just opened in 7z and paste the new file to this folder.
Close the in 7z opened APK and copy it back to your stick.
Open the file path on your device (root rights needed), rename the original APK to may be radio.bak and copy the new one in this folder.
Change the permissions of the file back to 644.
Reboot device and you have the new background in.
This can be done with all related PNG files for the APK, as long you don´t extract it while adding the new pics.
Needs to be done after each update. So store them accordingly.
Edit:
There are different screen resolution folder to search. So have a look where you find the background related to your device.
If you don´t see any changes after reboot, you chosed the wrong folder.
