[Q] Font Color on Status Bar - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Im working on a theme, and i've successfully themed the status bar, but i need to know how to change the color of the font on the status bar and in the drop down menu to black. I can't seem to find what lines to edit in the status_bar.xml using my hex editor. Any help would be greatfully appreciated. Thanks.

Go check out the vibrant themes section.. I have a sticky for metamorph.. There is a tutorial how to manually change xmls for font color...
I'm going to tell you u couldn't get the clock to change in the vibrant.. i could change the date but not the clock.. We have actually changed everything but the time...
Tmo did something with our framework so it may just be the vibrant but idk...
God luck..any questions pm me

Date and clock are not image based so you won't find them. Signal bars should be in systemui.

i havent themed ICS yet, but if they are in the same place as gingerbread this thread might help --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831715
that was from this time last year when a few of us were figuring out where everything was in gingerbread
I may as well help you out as I've themed the whole of ICS and know it pretty much inside out...
The clock and the date in the dropdown are linked to one color in an XML. If you decompile your framework-res.apk go to res\values\colors.xml. change the following "Holo_Blue_Light" to whatever color you want, this will change the clock and the date color. The blue line you are referring to is in the systemUI, in the drawable-xhdpi folder. The image is named "Statusbar_hr.9.png" as its a .9.png I'd be careful editing it.
I hope this helps.

status bar text color?

I'm trying to change the text color of whats in the status bar such as clock, date, when "media scanner" pops up and all that stuff. Does anyone know where I could find that .xml?
Edit: so I found out how to get all the writing that shows on the left side but where would I find the clock color's .xml?

If you use AOKP you don't need to edit anything and change the colors easily through settings.
Unless your planning to do this on TW or making a theme?

Yup its a TW theme. And I found the color of everything on the left side in systemui/res/layout/statusbar.xml but I can't find the clocks color.

The ics theme is a great example of the clock color. And I even tried mixing some xmls and stuff from that one into my themes and sometimes it worked but I never figured out what it was exactly.
Ill check it out and see, thanks.

To change the clock color you need to decompile the classes.dex file in system UI. There is one line in the clock.smali that needs to be changed. I don't remember what line number it was though.

Can you Tell me how to do this????

Hi there everyone I have been learning about theme but having some trouble getting study time with all my kids yelling and screaming all day. So far i know about .9 and samlli apk manager decompile and recompile . as well as xml files.
My issue wright now is that I don't know exactly what files to edit to get the changes I want. If there's any tut on what file changes change what, that would be aswom, like for example I want to change the over-scroll color but I have changed the images I thought would change that and nothing.. But if not can anybody tell me what I have to edit to, change the color on the status bar, and the color of the letters on the status bar like the clock. and system letters.
Thank you before hand. for taking the time to answer I know life is busy.
What exactly are you trying to do?

Yeah I remember. I already have the app modded as I use it myself.
But anything in the status bar is found in the SystemUI.apk
It is going to be an XML as well.

A no brainer way is to use the app "rom toolkit".. if u go to the playstore its actually on sale right now and its well worth the regular price let alone the sale price, i paid the full amount and couldn't be more stoked.. Its about 10 apps in one and a must have for any noob root user like myself (any user for that matter).. one of the many features is theme changer where u can change the theme, font, status bar, boot loader ect.....

Its going I just tried to recompile framework. Apk with apk manager but I get an error. And it compiles with nothing on it like 0 bits.so I'll figure it out... The only reason to use a pk manager is to b able to edit XML in a readable language right? Cause last time I didn't use apk manager and it was OK but I couldn't edit any XML cause hex just not that good with it.

It's an XML edit in the systemui. I haven't been theming or anything lately, so I don't really know where it us now, but you would have to take apart the apk and change it. Haven't heard of an app that does this.
