Not sure if this should be in theme's but since it is a Question figured it was best fit for Q&A.
I'm using the HTC Battery widget and want to change it from stock green to blue. I know there are other battery apps that have different colors but was wondering if this has already been done. I tried searching and couldn't find anything. If i missed something in another thread please point me there and I'll go read what I've missed. Thanks
are yo talking about the battery meter up at the top right of the screen if so then check out the theme section there are all kinds if your talking about a widget that you can put on one of your 7 screens or all of them then search the android market

I've used other apps and widgets for the battery icon. I'm not talking about the icon on the top bar but the actual widget on your screen. I like the HTC Battery widget and was just curious how hard it woul de to change or if anyone knew if it had already been done.
ill see if i can change it for yea. do you have a specific color you are looking for.
well since i do not have the phones required i cant do anything sorry. if you can get me the .apk ill see if i can try it through sdk
as well just so you know it does not work on the evo unless you got a different rom
I'm currently running SkyRaider's 3.1 Sense rom on my Incredible but im having issues with random reboots, etc. I tired Virtuous 2.7 rom and its ridiculously smooth. The only thing that really bugs me about that rom is the notification bar. I hate the stock one now that ive gotten so used to the transparency. I used the Incredible Revolution theme and the notification bar was fine but i wasnt really feeling the whole red colored theme. If someone can help me out with making a zip file for a transparent notification bar like the one in SkyRaiders rom i will definitely consider buying you a beer. =P haha

if youre talking about the actual bar itself and not the notification area background, i've already done it. search dude, it helps.

im talking aboout the pull down menu that has the notifications. ive only found one with a 50% shade.
I'm also searching for this.
I would also like an easy way to modify the transparency on the notifications pull down. I haven't found an easy way yet (other than begging a dev to do it )
There is a post somewhere with a flashable file for this
what roms are you guys running? i figured out how to do it.
skyraider 3.3.2 - have you figured out how to change the color yet?
please tell how to do transparent! the only flashable zip of it i could find only works with the stock sense launcher and still didnt work too well

Thank you very much!
Great mods Andy! I had a couple questions I was hoping you could answer! I saw that you created a mod for Virtuous where you inverted the menu and changed the lettering to white. Could you give me a quick tip on how to do this with this ROM? I was able to do it with my old Droid by changing what I seem to remember was the menuitem_background.xml file, however it seems that doesn't work with this ROM?? I think I was able to get the menu inverted, however I can't get the text to be white.
Also, I've tried a bunch of different things to get the Verizon Wireless carrier text off the pulldown, however no matter what I do I can't get it removed! Do you have any tips for getting this changed?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

That's a MOD that took me a very long time to figure out, That's not a quick how-to, but I will work on it for this ROM, also I'll take a look I think I know how to get rid of the Verizon txt, PM me for that.
Also you will find that pretty much everything is different from the droid (i think) because of sense.

Thanks! Does the pulldown also change the menu background, or just the pulldown background?
I tried changing the eri.xml file for both the T-CDMA 64 and 65 lines based on this thread (link), but neither of those worked. UGH!!

Hmmm...in the status_bar_expanded.xml there's a portion referencing the Carrier Label (android:id="@id/carrierLabel"), but I don't know where to change that text, or even if it's possible?
Battery mod would be awesome for those who arent comfortable with using the Kitchen.
Thanks for the mods. Very cool. Quick question do you recommend wiping cache and dalvik or just flashing over the Rom as is?

no, you aren't dumb at all.
It may very well be my file, it worked for me, but others have reported the same thing happening when I do that MOD. sorry.
Not sure if this is the right place to put this but i was wondering if there is a mod for a custom rom were you can have the battery n clock n so thats in the notification area to look like the nexus or the cyan look to it?
You mean like JDROID?

or just any ROM using this?

I'm on CyanogenMod 10.
I'm trying to theme around but I never really messed around with the status bar and the standard blue icons kind of annoy me, does anyone know how I can either change the color or just change the icons completely?

Download themes from market, search Google/xda for cm10 themes, have a look in Android themes section theres many options but you would prob get an answer if your question was asked in the questions and answers section mate
