[ireviewapple4you]

How do you get to those files?

[Wapalize]

does this apply to Gingerbread? :[

[TheFxn]

@Wapalize Haven't tried this with Gingerbread but if the same files exist and look roughly the same can't see a reason why it wouldn't

[legamania]

is the first code "adb devices" i tryed it and it is not a proper command please help!!!!!

[DragonWingz]

@legamania its a program you use through command prompt so you need to donwload it

[videoman1o1]

Talk much...

[tigerswimmer1213]

is there a way without rooting?

[demonLXK]

adb not recognized as a internal external command?

[DragonWingz]

@demonLXK its a program and you need to donwload it to use that command in command prompt

[erikblazer13]

Where did you get your files from?



[JOSEunit10]

[JOSEunit10]

stock rom eclair 2.1

[Jakey959]

When i use "baksmali,jar" to get class output there is no status folder in there i am using a nexus s, i have [com]/[android]/[server]/ Then lots of files , some have

"StatusBarManager#1"

"StatusBarManager#2"

and so on

Am i on the right tracks ?

[fresswolf]

don't you need to sign the apk?

[andrija95aki]

can i just copy the file from root and than open it on pv by renaming it to zip,replace the files than zip it again and put back to root again???

[gfetco]

booooooooring

[niinomichan]

Could someone send me the files that's already been edited? :] thanks

[MrGarnettmiller]

all this just to change the battery status bar on a phone, this is fucking bullshit. DONE

[thedzadze]

when i type in cmd "adb devices" it says: adb is not recognized as internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

[MonkeywithaGrenade]

@thedzadze you need to install the sdk for this

just youtube it

[IllegalMavamaarten]

Finally a great tutorial, but I don't have the classes.dex file... What to do now ?

[andybruintje]

oke the white text is only the stats bar itself.what about the pullout menu from stats bar? do we just change status_bar_expanded the same way??

[aeopath]

hi. does this work with froyo? on nexus one?

[TheFxn]

@aeopath I can't see a reason why it wouldn't work, if the same files are there then it shouldn't be a problem, take a backup and give it a go =o)

[wncoulte]

Dont know if it makes any difference but i'm running firmwire 2.1,update1 for motorola android. I'm terribly frustrated because i've been everywhere on how to do exactly what the image shows at the beginning of this video, but i can't because these forums are horrible. When i finally find a video that's go, i can't use it because my files are structured different. I NEED HELP, BAD BRO!!!

[wncoulte]

I was following your tutoral pretty well until you opened the framework-res.apk folder and opened drawable, instead of drawable-hdpi.

[TheFxn]

@wncoulte some newer phones and firmware's have the files in different folders such as drawable-mdpi so just find the png in one of the drawable folders.

[awsometurkey]

@TheFxn drawable, is low res, mdpi is medium res, and hdpi is high res. most phones now use hdpi folder.
