Center Clock without Jerry's build....?

[CuriousNoob]

Is there a way to get Center clock and Transparent without having to use Jerry's IHO build? Whenever I flash Zdune's thing, it never works....

You have to use apkmanager to decompile your SystemUI.apk file, as well as set up apkmanager to use the frameworks-res.apk as a resource. Once you decompile it, you need to move the clock above the LinearLayout of the rest of the status bar in the xml file. Then you recompile it and use adb in recovery to push it to your phone.

[Status bar/notification mod] Center clock and icon switch - CM7/gingerbread - update - xda-developers

Using this method will result in overlay issues with the notification icons, and in some cases with the system icons as well.

Another problem. The only thing I have trouble with in your build is that I can only get the Clock and Reception, etc... to show up if something pops up. Like Statics Opted in, Preparing SD Card. Otherwise the bar stays black. Is there a fix?
