Changing highlight/select color

So the rom/theme I'm using uses green for a highlight/select color, but I like the blue (or possibly purple or something for some). I was wondering what elements where would need to be edited?
It's not the only thing I'd want to edit, so really the starting point should be sufficient.

You need to read the how to theme threads. Your awnsers are in there. The green highlights arte either controlled by images or xml code. Everything is found in the framework-res.apk that would need to be changed. In order to edit an xml file you need to de compile the apk. Images can just be dragged and dropped using 7zip our winrar

The theming how to has been really great so far, there is a section of the How To that lists all the tools you will need her. I am working on switching my color from blue to red! I am playing with shades of red and trying to figure out a way to change the highlighting shape on the keypad.. want to change it from a square / rectangle to a star.

I cracked open the framework-res from emotionless today, gonna have to try it on my desktop instead of my netbook so I can do editing. Thanks for the link, think I stubled across it (way too many sites/forums and some are so nonspecific)
My next challenge is bootani, I broke the one on baked snack 1.6 somehow.

(REQ) Ghost Theme

Is there any devs that would be kind enough to create a theme that has everything 80-90% transparent, Icons and all?

Look for the window theme (i forget the name) but its made by dreamsforgotten. its not 100% what your looking for buy you can drop suggestions in his thread. Also the bonsia rom has a nice transparent theme built in.

Thats what I was going to say

Find the super nova rom he has a sweet clear notifications bar and pulldown tab flashable for dk28. I used the second one with the darker shade but the first one is more clear I think.

The transparent theme is coming I want to be 100% with how I'm going to implement it. I'm leaning towards the look of the kubuntu clear windows. froyo window is the theme mystery is referring to. No link, I'm on the road. Its close and took a lot to get it working right but now that I got it figured out, I am working at it but my next theme will be a pink one since there aren't too many for our female (or males if pink is your thing lol) Epic users.

New Theme Requests

Hi All,
As you know I was the one who brought you the Sensation Theme and more recently the New Senzation ROM. I am still working on that project, but honestly am getting bored with Blue and Green Themes.
Therefore I ask that you as a community recommend some different themes for me to try and port. Please include a link to the original.
Look forward to your ideas....

How about a dark purple and black theme? With no battery % or a gold and black theme..

Back in my HTC Hero days, there was a white and dark gray/ black theme called GTX and the exact opposite called XTG by signals23, also another was the Steel My Elegance theme from Gomorrah (sp?)... would be nice. Let me see if I can find any links.

Its a green theme but not like the ones weve seen so far, so its a 50/50. The same person also made these 2. Well, ported anyways.

Silver and Black would always be elegant. Just my .02 cents worth.

I will be coming out with a group of themes... and no, none of them are green or blue In about a month I would suppose.. maybe sooner.

I would love something with pastel colors (not girly, just pastel). Don't just focus on one or two colors, try three at minimum. I've always imagined a theme along the lines of this Kirby game. Without all the super bezeled/embossed stuff, too, because too much starts to look tacky
I'd also love a darker grey theme (with very delicate gradients) with accents of light orange, lighter red, and mustard yellow, etc.
Maybe a theme with the statusbar on the bottom of the screen
Man I've been photoshopping for ages, I need to just learn to theme for myself

I would love to see a theme with deep purple, bright turquoise, and hot pink on black. It looks tropical and awesome in my Hancent app.
Something multi-colorful...I agree about the three or more colors idea.
I like the silver on black idea though, but silver is metallic and would have to appear dimensional in order to truly look silvery. Something like the ObsidianAlloy clock theme of Beautiful Widgets. Otherwise it would basically be black and light gray.
Thanks for being open to input from others!

I would like to see a matte/carbon fiber theme (with maybe some very minor silver accents). I think it would give it a real simple, and elegant look.
Similar to this Matted blues theme but with Carbon Fiber/silver accents instead of blue.

Grey with turquoise would be sweet

Theme Information
Hello Everyone,
Just to reiterate I am not a themer myself, I am just a glorified copy/paste specialist. Therefore what I am looking for is existing themes from other android device that I can port over. So far I have seen a few and looking for more to help decide. Thanks.

How about something like this without the battery % http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445494

I would LOVE to see these ported. These themes are to die for in my opinion. Although they have green/blue, they also have orange/red. The orange one revamped would be AWESOME. Especially if you made a lot more items orange accented and darkened the orange just a tad so it stands out.

[REQ] Black and White ICS Theme

I love all the ICS themes out, along with the minimal black and white, but I was really hoping for a combination of the two. I was thinking of an ICS theme, but without the ICS blue integrated into it and instead keeping text, notification bar, etc all white. Any other interest in this? I've never themed before and while I would like to learn, I don't exactly have a bunch of spare time to work on it. Just curious if anyone would be interested in taking on this task.

I'd like to see this done
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App

+10 ... but I doubt anyone will do it, reason been there's another black and white minimal but maybe we get lucky

I must say that banks has pretty much already did this and it rocks.

I assume you're talking about his minimal black and white theme...it is awesome, but what I was proposing is a more stock ICS feel (dialer, notification bar, stock ICS icons) but with the minimal black and white color scheme. I might have to try to find some time to learn to theme.

The only problem with Black and White themes is that some icons will be black/white and others (from the market) will be colored and it creates an obsolete theme. That's the reason I haven't made a Black/White theme myself.

Yeah, especially gapps. Its something you would constantly stay on top of but even hitting the dialer, contacts, messaging and status bar icons is enough. People like B-Boy, Decalex, Rujelus handle the GMail, Dropbox, Google+, etc inverted apps

Please leave it free...... oh and could you make a version without the icons for app app drawer? Thanks!
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

@Uber, I would prefer it to be free to be honest. But if it's your work, then it's your choice ! Its so close to your theme as you see, but status bar drop down is different. And yes, no icons no anything! Just pure stock Black and Blue ! Don't want to take more of your time !
Question, is it possible to make it also AOKP compatible? I mean, if I apply your Uber Jelly Blue in AOKP, the Rom Control Icon in settings will remain White and not blue, since your theme is based to go for CM10's like Settings look

Its possible just haven't had the time to do it.

Yeah I know, I think there's also a new Icon with AOKP Nightlies? I think it's Advanced or something like that heh! Just would love it CM10 and AOKP Compatible all the way through with Blue setting Icons
TIP : If you use AOKP, and set the status bar wallpaper to black with no transperancy. It will become full black, BUT the Top Right of the status bar will have a brown glitch line. It was the same case with the Mod I have right now, but when I told Lichti he fixed it and I think he just blackened the TOP of the status bar too. because the stock status bar starts black and starts fading gray downwards, so I assume he/aokp were leaving the top of it un-edited Thanks for your listening.

Uber, I feel compelled to point out that rascream has been themed this way since the very earliest builds... from back in April.
Rascarlo implemented his UI changes from rascream when he updated the ROM to rasbean.

Yes, he's had the toast and framework .9 pngs since June 1st Build actually. I've been a rascream/ rasbean user since the very first ICS ROM and now the ROM is on JB.
It was not a flashable theme, it has always been part of the ROM.
Amoled Blue by etoy is very similar, that is a flashable theme for AOKP.
You first came out with Uber Jelly at the end of June? Correct me if I'm wrong.
Feel free to comb through the Trinity kernel thread in the gsm dev section, there are posts from the end of May when rascarlo first showed off the glow... for the first two or three ROMs he had it solid black though.
The ROM has always been known for its black and blue theme, this has been what defined rascream and now rasbean.
I'm not doubting the validity of your claim, I'm just pointing out that this particular ROM has looked this way before your theme came out.
Edit: A link to the first post mentioning the switch to a holo glow. I hope this helps you get to the bottom of this matter, because rascarlo isn't about not giving credit where credits due. He's a righteous guy, so I'm sure there's a misunderstanding somewhere.
