[Taking Requests] Themes

[Guest TheManicGibbon]

Right maybe someone in this thread can help me. I want to change the colour of the text circled red in the screenshot (left is what I have now, right is what I want). I want the "Ongoing" and "Notifications" text from white to grey.

I've been trying for 4 days to do this unsuccessfully; I know I need to change styles.xml, but because this is one of the files that recompiles into resources.arsc etc etc....basically I've tried every tutorial out there, but when flashed, the phone fails to boot at some stage. Can someone please show me how to do this, step by step, but don't emit stages which you may see as obvious, because that may be the part I am missing!

This really is driving me mad, thanks to anyone who could help.

<resources>   

	<color name="titlebackgroundcolor">#3232CD</color>

	<color name="titletextcolor">#FFFF00</color>

</resources>

The first is GinerFLB, running a beta version of the new Gingerbread theme I'm working on.

The second is a screenshot from the Nexus S MCR

As far as I know the value was in styles.xml, so I can change this colors.xml instead?



Cheers!

If the values are in styles.xml, just modify that.

Yeah I have problems with xml files that recompile into resources.arsc, I ended up just manually editing services.jar to sort this. Cheers.

How did you get the transparent notification bar in the screenshots above?

[Guest Migun]

I didn't, I saw them and tried to do it, but the phone did not boot.

http://forum.cyanoge...with-ext4-hack/

do you want the theme?

[Guest Migun]

Yes,but I just wanted a clear status and notification bar :)

Like this :)

edit:

Ok, finally made the status bar completely transparent!

For those who want it like mine you have to :

1- Go to http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/

2-Click on Kitchen >

3- Enable transparency in status bar

4- in Status Bar > Top Bar > FFFFFF and put on 0%

5-Go to FIle Upload and upload the "framework-res.apk" and "SystemUI.apk"

6-Click on Summary and then "submit work to kitchen"

7-Go to "pickup" and in a few minutes you can download your ZIP file (to flash on CWM) :)

8- Before flashing to go Martket and download "Multipicture Live Wallpaper", in "Multipicture Live Wallpaper" choose the picture you want to make as wallpaper , you have to do this because the transparency only works with live wallpapers (with me at least).

Flash it and it should be ok :)!

edit 2: Now I just want to know how to make the configuration menu like this but on the normal CM7 theme (this is MEIZU theme for CM7)

the transparent background?

do you just want the settings app? or all the list view apps?

Edited August 11, 2011 by HMZX

[Guest Migun]

Yes, just the transparent background :)

[Guest Gx3k]

Where do i get "framework-res.apk" and "SystemUI.apk" for ginger stir fry b17?

[Guest Mushroom_Lord]

Where do i get "framework-res.apk" and "SystemUI.apk" for ginger stir fry b17?

In your ROM's Zip file.

Extract it, and in /system/app/ you will find systemui.apk

In /system/framework/ you will frind framework-res.apk

[Guest Gx3k]

Thanks guys :D

Do I have to wipe anything in clockwork (dalvik, cache, etc) before applying the zip file I got from the kitchen?

dalvik is useful to wipe, but not necessary
