This is an ultimate tutorial by ramrocky, edited by me in a more simpler way! :D

This is almost a perfect (Perfect :P) way to avoid the buggy avkon method!! ;-)

If u want to use Belle Topbar without the avkon method, then here is an easy solution for you, as avkon method is not perfect and it makes tabs invisible, you can also use this in combination with avkon! :)

Download the theme you want to edit and open it in SISContents

Click on contents

Then click on 'theme package.mif'.

In that window, click on add image and select the black.svg(Rename it to .svg). It will be added to mif(it will be the last icon) and click close.

Now click on "theme package.skn", navigate to the resource tab and in the search box - search the following entries listed below:

-Battery strength

-Battery strength landscape

-Battery icon

-Signal strength

-Landscape signal strength

If u cannot find them, click on add resource and add those entries. Click on each entry> right click>edit>chose image from list>and select the last entry from the dropdown menu(as its the blank svg).

You have successfully hid the battery signal and signal icons and battery icon. Now we need to hide the texts appearing on top and the various indicators signals(missed call, message).

Know it: We cant delete them, all we can do is to change their colours so that they merge with background and become invisible! ;-)

So, now, go to theme package.skn again! :D Then go to colours tab and select the entries listed below and change their colour to the background colour of the theme (in my case the background is black so i changed listed values to black).

-Title text

-Title text in idle

-Landscape  area title  text

-Landscape  area title  text in idle

-Status  indicators

-Universal indicators

-Signal/packet data indications(appears twice in my theme)

-Status  indicator icons

Click save and close it. Voila! You have the perfect alternative to the avkon. ;-)

I've attached a DI theme with the process done above. Use it if you like.

You need to remove it from all the themes you install.

Instead use modded Avkon.dll

&

One more trick i do have for it which I will make on some free day.

Yes, you need to do it in all the themes you install.

And trick is related to what?

I am late in checking this awesome tutorial :)
