Root Notification Pull Down Animations?

It should. I've used animations in the status bar pulldown before. Just make a backup before you try
 
ok so i tried this took a while first time. i have a couple questions if you could help Lv? do i have to sign the systemui.apk and do i have to set any permisions?

when i flash the rom after i do what it says in the tutorial i get a status bar force close and no status bar/notification pulldown!

i would just ask if you could upload a .zip seeing as you have done this before but i really wanna do it my self any help would be awesome!

thnx!

Basically you're just changing an image within systemui.apk, what I would suggest is using apk manager to decompile the apk then make your changes then compile it again then push it back to your phone either through Apk Manager or ADB... Hope this helps...

EDIT: If you feel the apk needs signing, Apk Manager is also able to do that for system apks... :)

Actually, the way i have always understood it, you need to retain the signature of the rom. Which isn't possible without having the keys that were used when it was signed, or resigning the whole rom.

What you would need to do is decompile the apk, make your changes recompile the apk and then copy the files you edited to the still zipped original apk.

Here's a guide that may offer some assistance.

And as far as uploading one of my own... I don't have anything that will work with the newer versions of ctmod, but I should have something lying around in my prevail directory... I'll have a look tonight or tomorrow and see what up can come up with :)

what i was asking for was maybe the xml files you changed to use as a model to see what needs to be changed for ct mod the pulldown anim xml that needs to be in drawable and the status bar tracking xml that would be in layout just something to go off but im gonna try pushing to the phone thru adb or apkmanager, cause i just placed it in the unopened zip using 7zip and it didnt work that way but im pretty sure i did everything right. will be in touch thnx for the guide. The more you read the more you know!
 
not saying that won't work, but I found it's easier to copy the original SystemUI signature(meta-inf folder and androidmanifest.xml) over to the newly compiled edited apk.

I just got swipe to remove notifications working on my phone today, and it was only when I copied to signature over. The other way I lost my status bar.
