Hey everyone,

I am currently working on brightening up the status bar a little bit and adding some color however I cannot locate a resource I need. Does anyone know how to change the background of the status bar? See where the red arrow is point in the image:

Edit: The image is statusbar_background.9

It's in framework-res.apk > res > drawable-hdpi

And the image is called "statusbar_background.9.png". Even though it's a .9 you don't have to resign the status bar bg. But that's the only exception.

sorry, (basic question) I was going to try and do something simular to this also and I was wondering how I can resign these files and how I would install the new framework-res.apk?

I made myself a rom a while ago on my eris but I have forgotten most of the stuff on resigning apk's and making packages to flash and such.

thanks in advance,

Resigning file you'd need Eclipse, or you can use Xeudoxus's xUltimate draw9patch resign tool. Send me a PM if you need more info.
