Any chance someone could explain how to create a transparent background .png? I found out which .png's were for the background but need to know how to create a transparent one. I would appreciate it, new to this and could use the help.

the only way i know how is with photoshop.

create a new image from scratch. approx 180x180 with anywhere from 72 to 96 dpi

select that you want to create a transparent image.

Set your opacity to about 25-30%

use paint bucket to splash image whatever color you want transparent.

save as.png status_bar_background.png

this is off topic but I can't get an answer anywhere else???? I am trying to theme the battery on Kangerade 1.1. It has 10% increments BUT the framework-res pngs don't show that??? I am looking at 90% right now on my phone but I can not find the png???? any ideas... and sorry again for getting off topic..

 

[mike919]

did you use one of jrummys update.zip for the clock and notification colors? because if you did i believe that alters the framework...

does your battery say 90% or does your "about phone" say 90%?

 

[ecsnead69]

I changed the colors with Bowers MM file for froyo, BUT I still get the "90" in my battery??? I may just make some custom pngs with no numbers and if he is adding the number another way, it will still work.....hopefully!??!?!

i replaced the .pngs in my framework and i only get 20% now... but i run that battery widget which is in 10's anyway so it doesn't bother me all that much...

i don't know enough about his build to know if its an XML file somewhere or if it was straight .pngs... i just downloaded the ROM again, i'll check the framework...

 

[mike919]

Ya its gotta be an XML. I don't see the 10% increase in the framework either.

Thanks....

i'm not sure, i've never seen anybody have to change permissions on the services.jar...

you may have to add a transparent .png to your framework as the one thats in there now may be solid...

 

[mike919]

oh wait, did you just replace the services jar on the SD card???? You have to put it back in /system/framework, not the sd card root...

 

[Accidental]

i put it in system/framework and replaced the one there... i only copied the file out to do the transparent exe

 

[Accidental]

transparent .png... where would i get this?

 

[Mbk]

Permissions should be set to ...User/ Read & Write...Group/Read....Other/Read....everything else unchecked,,,press OK...reboot

Also this patch shouldn't need a semi transparent image to work...if patched correctly
