-= Ribbon Status Bar Icons =-​

ribbons_icons2.JPG

What includes in the package?

- Modified framework-res.apk with menu background patch
- Modified SystemUI.apk
- MDPI/HDPI Ribbon icons

How do i put them in my apps?

0. Copy the MDPI folder or download and extract Ribbons MDPI.zip in your SDcard
1. Download Ninjamorph from the Market and sideload Gmail to /system/app + give rw-r--r-- permissions
2. Open ninjamorph and select new project
3. Navigate to /system/app and select com.google.android.gm-1.apk at this point
ninjamorph expands the file and stores it on your SDcard as a folder.
4. select Res folder
5. Select drawable-hdpi
6. scroll down and select stat_notify_email.png (Remember that name), you will be asked what to replace it with
7. At this point touch the Home button, open ES file explorer and navigate to /Sdcard/MDPI/Gmail folder
8. Check that the .png is named as stat_notify_email.png, if not then rename it
9. Go back to ninjamorph it will show the screen as you leave it, just navigate to the modified file /Sdcard/MDPI/Gmail/stat_notify_email.png and select it. It will replace the original
10. Once you've done the above click back button and then click on finish project
11. Select the project, click YES to the warnings and NO to zip align it

It will do it's thing, once rebooted your menus will have the colour of the file you gave it as a replacement
* Repeat the process with other apps, folders and name of the .png's will vary.

Thanks for the modified framework-res.apk. I thought is was funny on the last step of the splash screen when it said "HACK" by Barnes and Noble. I had to reboot again to make sure it was really there. That was very good.

Thanks again.

Nice setup. On a side note, you can also install these with adb.

open an adb terminal
adb devices (to make sure you are connected)
adb remount
adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk c:\location to save file
adb pull /system/app/SystemUI.apk c:\location to save file

Download the files.
open the framework-res.apk with winrar or 7-zip (do not extract)
navigate to the res/drawable-mdpi folder
drag the entire contents into the rar file
click ok on the popup box

Repeat for the SystemUI.apk

go back to adb

adb push c:\location of framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb push c:\location of SystemUI.apk /system/app/SystemUI.apk

adb shell chmod 644 /system/app/SystemUI.apk

adb reboot


All changes should show up. Thats the way I did mine. I tried ninjamorph on the menu background image and it failed about 10 times until I finally gave up and replaced the image in my framework-res file and now it's fine.

Out of curiousity, is there any way to make the size of the ribbons for the battery and wifi, ever so slightly, larger. They are somewhat difficult to read and I keep telling my self that I am not that old, no matter what my son says to me. I still hope to learn how to do these things you all do. I guess I just need to try and follow your directions until I get it right.

Thanks again....

I don't see "com.google.android.gm-1.apk" in the /system/app folder though, does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks!

So does that mean I want to navigate to data/app instead of :

ninjamorph expands the file and stores it on your SDcard as a folder. ??

Thanks btw for your response so quickly Know-Fear.

How did you get those soft buttons on a stock rom.

Sorry, my fault. I should have explained. I'm running stock v1.4.1 - rooted. I want to add just those soft bottons without the extra ribbons. I see a lot of stuff about cm7, but I haven't seen any posts about getting those in stock. Veronica's mod is the only place I've seen that has it with stock. So my question is really to her, how where u able to get that into stock? The reason I ask is, while it would just be easier to flash her rom, I wouldn't really learn anything. So the 'how' is just as important to me as the 'what'. Anyway I give you credit for your answer and tossed you a thanks.

And just because I'm here, where can I get just the boot animation with the "hack by barnes and noble", because quite frankly, that is just bad ass.

Look about 4 pages back in the "themes and apps* board. There is a thread called *Ice Cream Sandwich Status Bar Icons." Skim the whole thread, especially for screenshots. (Try page 4.) There are flavors which retain an ICS style "keep reading* button, replace that with a standard home button, slide the buttons down to the left, get rid of the clock, replace the numbers to look more ICS-ey, etc. Remember to back up your SystemUI.apk in case something breaks, and good luck!
