Default My "Transparent" Statusbar is white!

Hello Guys,

I did everything what zdune's tutorial said, to get a transparent statusbar but nothing works for me. After i put the SystemUI.apk to /system/app/ an turn on my phone it shows a white Statusbar and when i pulldown, every other thing shows normal, like notifications power control and so on, but the bar is white...

Im using muraiks cm 7.1 (Swift Droid2.0 RC 1)

i hope you guys can help me.
Thanks in Advance and sorry for my bad english, im from Austria ツ

If you're using ADW, untick the wallpaper hack in settings, or get GO Launcher Ex.

You guys should be more focus when you are reading my site

Important

As you should already know not each launcher supports transparent statusbar, but if you will use MultiPicture Live Wallpaper you can get transparent statusbar using any launcher , so I added wallpaper.png to the archive.

Yeah but there is lots of launchers over the Market, so it's the best way to make it work for all of them
