Very cool how you can add what you want and don’t want but for some odd reason I am not getting my facebook notifications like I used to get telling me if someone posted something or responded to my post

It’s too bad Google doesn’t add in native theming capabilities. The base is already there with the style system.

It cuts off part of the notification tray on mine in JellyBean

Ok I thought this app was what I was wanting but its not. What I want / need is for my Droid Razr to have the notification bar like the HTC devices. I loved how the recent apps were displayed in the notification bar and how the ongoing notifications and email / text messages were separated so I could just glance and see what was there. Plus with there actually being some action in the notification bar it looked a lot better!

“top notification bars was to root and apply a ROM with a custom theme”

simply not true.

you could have used something like Ninjamorph to make custom 1 by 1 edits.. I know, I have done it 100 times. A ROM is NOT required to mess with the notification bar.

Installed. Uninstalled. Just didn’t play right with the phone or the themes available. Nice concept though. Root still king.

StatusBar+ is so much better than this IMO

I wouldn’t want to take my status bar back to icons from 2.1 from the look of those screenies ….

100% it isn’t – AT&T locked One X on newer 2.20 baseband. Got it like that from factory so no saved files to save downgrade path.

Mine flashes every time i open/close apps. Also, the themes aren’t working for me.

This is a pretty neat concept and I love the ICS and JB themes available, but I find my stock status bar sometimes flashes up and it doesn’t always update when you change things like volume to vibrate or to silent. Also, some of my notifications didn’t show up. I’d really love to use this but it’s a bit too buggy, but definitely want to keep it around to see if they update and improve it.
