I have Virtuous 3.1.0 installed, and I was wondering how I could port the white notification bar from CM6 over, is it possible? What would I need to do.

The notification bar is part of the framework apk file, which isn't good to mess with unless you know what your doing as far as signing and pushing it back to the phone and all that.

I only successfully skinned a status bar in the new version of HTC Sense from the Desire HD because it supports skins its much easier to skin without changing out the framework and risk infinite reboot.

here's a good example

but to answer your question, yes its possible

is it easy? yes and no since the framework is involved here

Ninja morph.... get the .png you want, and swap it!

it's possible, it just takes a bunch if messing around to perfect your craft... basically you take the framwork-res.apk and the com.resoucres.apk and switch the white over tot he black. easier said than done...

I was all for the white status bar when I had my Eris. Now I love the black, I actually make the white bar black on CM6..
