Doesn't work.
Do I have to rename the file? like replace the original SystemUI.apk?

 

[ssaass]

Are you sure

 

[ssaass]

first make a backup copy of the original SystemUI.apk
Then rename the file

 

[jamaljmys]

be careful guys and remember that you will loose back, home, menu buttons if this doesn't work.

BTW it didn't work with me

 

[emprize]

for those cant make it work, remember rename/remove the SystemUI.odex as well, otherwise wont work

 

[antiochasylum]

You don't have to remove the .odex file, where is that code going to go then? When you de-odex it puts a classes.dex file in the apk so there is no need for the .odex file.

Do not remove the .odex file.

Rename it to SystemUI.apk as well. The lazy way is to go into your system/app and copy the stock systemui.apk to your SD card, then paste this file over it, and set permissions.

The smart way would be to copy it in a shell. But that might be to advanced for some people.

And besides all he did was edit the images. At least that's what it looks like. I haven't download it to check for a classes.dex file.

I did a sum up of the topic :
1 - Go to system/app and rename SystemUI.apk and .odex both to .bkp
2 - At this time systemui keeps force close, just accept (again and again), copy now new SystemUI.apk to same place and set permissions as original SystemUI.apk
3 - Reboot and you're done!

Hope this helps

Great but...

WARNING! All of that blue will burn your new AMOLED screen (blue is the first color to lose brightness). Use this if you want status icons permanently etched in to your screen.

I am not sure why people (even Samsung themselves) don't seem to realise that blue is the worst color for these static screens and constantly love to over use it.

Maybe we can get a status bar with the more OLED safe red, yellow, green or combination of those colors?

Apart from black, which color is the most battery saving?

Blue is the least efficient so I would guess red or green.

It isn't about battery saving it is about screen saving. I doubt that little bit of graphics for the status bar uses much power no matter what. It will burn your screen though. I think blue has a half-life of 17,000-30,000 hours (red/green over 100,000) so blue will be half of it's original brightness then. Of course you will start to see the burn much before because half brightness is pretty severe. You will start to see permanent image retention (mostly noticeable by a yellowish "stain" in the area of the static image) probably at a couple thousand hours (maybe sooner) depending on how bright you have the screen, and how sensitive you are to noticing these things.

I wish software developers, including Samsung themselves, would keep this in mind when creating mandatory static images on their devices such as status bars etc. OLED is great but it is not LCD when it comes to longevity, and care should be taken accordingly.

Factual Evidence to back this claim up?

Even so, @ 17,000 hours @ 24 houts a day is 708 Days. 90% of people do not keep devices more than a year. Personally I keep them MAYBE 6-8 months before I upgrade. So why sweat about the screen? I am going to put what ever color I want and that I like. End of story.

people with amoled+ screens have already reported burn in issues after only a couple weeks.

primary affected area is status bar. although only really noticeable under certain conditions

for 7.7 users these are valid concerns not so much for 7.0+ devices.
