does this work on other devices? I have the epic 4g touch and am wondering if this will work? It has the latest CM9 Beta1. Thanks!

i don't know..if the code is the same as the our device it will work. if you want try, obviusly don't use my restore zip. make a nanadroid or a copy of your systemui.apk. then flash my mod. if it will not work restore backup or put your systemui.apk in the flashable zip(in xtras/system/app) after deleting mine apk and flash it(for restoring your statusbar). let me know :)

OMG it worked!! Thanks so much! The whole reason I finally rooted my phone was because I wanted a transparent status bar lol. The resolution of the 2 devices are the same so I decided to give it a try. Did a nandroid backup and flashed. Everything works great! The reloaded statusbar mod didn't work on the latest CM9 Beta1 but this does. Thanks again :)

Do you know how to fix the transparent statusbar in the notification dropdown? I'm using the 100% transparency zip and when I pull down the notification drawer the top part is completely transparent so it's whatever color the homescreen is. Back when I had another phone with CM7 they could fix it so the top part won't look like it's missing. I have no clue how they did it though lol.

    hi all, this is my first theme/mod :) it's nothing special but i want to share with you this, sorry if this isn't so good, but it works! i followed a guide of mastershefis, so all credits goes to him. if you want to follow his guide, remember to do a flashable zip or the status bar will not work(don't push simply in system\app).

    SCREENSHOTS:

    50% transparent:

    100% transparent (screens by MastroLindo91 from the italian forum):

    INSTALLATION (cyanogenmod9 and system theme needed):
    1)go into recovery
    2)make a nandroid(my zip works at 100%, but the security is never too much :) )
    3)flash the zip attached below
    4)reboot

    IF YOU HAVE ANOTHER ROM DIFFERENT FROM CM9(BUT CM9 BASED) TRY THIS:
    Flash transparent status bar > reboot > status bar dissapeared > flash restore status bar > reboot > status bar appear > flash transparent status bar > reboot > enjoy
    Reboot is just needed to see if the mod succesfully installed or not. If you like you can't just skip the reboot step after flashing the restore zip. [thanks to reddvilzz ]

    i had tried, but the statusbar became too lightning. i don't know why, probably is a mine error. when i will have time i'll check it and if it works i will post it :)
