Looking good dazed!! Glad to see you're having some fun.
Any chance I can get a picture of that wicked x for a pulldown? Or a zip? TIA

Sure, I just through it together real quick while i was playing around. It's a morph zip, but should work fine as long as you flashed that custom systemui that I posted earlier today. Just download and flash in recovery.

Apparently something is not working right with my XDA app and it keeps fc every time I try to thank you so I'll just say it. Thanks @dazednconfused

No problem at all, I'm not worried about that anyway. Let me know if it works ok, I'll make a better one with more detailed text tomorrow. Thanks.

I think we may be on 2 different pages.I have no problems with the stock lockscreen or setting it up the way I want. I hope this will post clear things up.
Pic 1 is my lockscreen setup. Stock clock widget removed and replaced with NiLS Notifications. Clock disabled in widget settings. I like minimal also. :)
Pic 2 is lockscreen with a notification. Still pretty clean.
Pic 3 What the holy h**l!! The hideous white notification that shows up when I get a text or a missed call (there may be more but those are the only two I've seen) is what I'm trying to get rid of. I was hoping I had missed a checkbox or setting somewhere but I still haven't found anything even close. :(
I'm now somewhat (mostly?) sure that its baked into TW somewhere. Don't worry about it to much, like I said in my original post this isn't going to be my daily driver, maybe 5-6 days a month and I can live with it for the few texts I will get on those days.
That's good ol' Samsung themeing for you right there. If you want something to hold you over until later, I put one together that has white/gray text with a semi transparent black background. I can't post any screenshots of it because I have no service on my sgs3. Cnexus was cool enough to test it out for me last night, so I know it works fine for this rom.

Just download and flash in recovery then reboot and enjoy. I'll let somebody else post a screenshot of it.

+1 on those toggles.

Ya. . Planning on changing them out. .. was going to last night but stuff happened and didn't get a chance to.





It's built into the keyguardwidget.apk i believe. I'll have to double check if it's the same on KitKat as it was on JB. Don't freeze the app or delete it, just be patient until somebody decides to theme it. I had the JB version done in black backgrounds with chrome trim. It would probably be possible to make them with a transparent bg as well.

EDIT: I've put one together with white and gray text and a dark semi transparent background on the notifications for missed calls and texts. I have no way of testing how it looks though, because I no longer have service on my SGS3. If anybody would like to test it and post a screenshot so I can see it, let me know. Thanks.
That is my next next priority.. dont like the white notification either... I was thinkin it was in phone or mms so right on again.

I've been having some fun on this rom the past few hours. Nice job on this bilgerryan.
Hey not sure why but I tried flashing your systemui custom bg zip and the phone booted but systemui acted like it wasnt there...bno taskbar or pulldown...

What did you add to it to make the custom pull down?

And sorry if this is newbish... but what makes it a morph zip? It has vrtheme files in it....

If you didn't flash the custom SystemUI first that I posted yesterday then it won't show up. A morph zip is just what I'm used to calling it, it's actually a vrtheme zip. I'm just used to saying it morphs the image.

But if you would like to build a custom pulldown in your theme SystemUi, it's actually very easy in the way I do it. Just decompile your SystemUI.apk with apktool. Once decompiled, navigate to SystemUI/res/layout/status_bar_expanded.xml. Open with Notepad ++ and look for this section in line #2.
Code:
android:background="@drawable/notification_background_color"
and change to this:
Code:
android:background="@drawable/tw_custom_bg"
Save and then navigate to your drawable-xhdpi folder. Create a new png image (you can use the one from the morph zip or make your own), I usually size it 720x1280 and name it tw_custom_bg (save it in .png format). Drop that image in your drawable-xhdpi folder.

Now compile your SystemUI and test. You should now have a custom pulldown on your phone.

Sorry for taking up so much space bilgerryan. I was going to PM it to him, but thought it would be nice to share with anybody else that may want to play around with this stuff. Thanks again for the awesome rom.

Thanks a lot! I would have preferred to have it gone completely as I don't like the clock on my lockscreen (main advantage of NiLS Notification) but this a perfectly acceptable solution. 'Preciate the work. :good::good:

Been running for a couple days now. zero problems with the ROM. I have been getting a couple random reboots since moving to ND8 though. I have tried stock rooted tat, stock rooted deodex, slimrom and now this. Same with all so I may try reflashing the stock tar or a custom kernel.

I did have to flash the hotspot mod to get that working and flashed the blue fix on settings menu.

Thanks for a great ROM!
