Check out the WindowManager class. Essentially you place a View on top of the status bar (position 0, 0). You'll need to get the height right, use BroadcastReceivers and other APIs to update Views with the current device state (i.e. battery, signal, time, etc). This can be done, it is just very difficult.

Source: I am the developer of StatusBar+, the app which Super Status Bar is based on. It used to be open source in its alpha builds but is no longer available.
