[Q] To Themers - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Any themer know were the green is comming from in the below screen shot in GB Sense 3.0? I have all the png's in framework-res, com.htc.resource, fusion.apk and systemui.apk changed to blue yet I still have this green. I did the xml edits in framwork and there is nothing in color.xml that is green yet I still have this green that is comming from somewhere. Any help would be appreciated.

The progress_horizontal.xml controls that.

Its either in the framework.res or the htc.resources files.
Open the res folders and find the png that is just green highlights. Then edit all those to red, you probably need to do this anyway.

thats my problem i have extracted both of them and still no dice.
I'm having trouble finding those pngs too. I'm trying to find them in CM6 but they aren't in Framework from what I see. I thought they might be in settings but they aren't in there either.
been searching all around for this as well
found this:
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-themes/60280-theming-guide-progress-bar.html
its actually not a png
the process is a bit involved, but it works. and once you figure out how to make it work, its not that complicated
i just did it and am going to upload a new version of my cm6 nightly theme

[Q] Frameworks-res.apk help

When i mod framework-res.apk changing color of some png files results in shape deformation.Its espesialy true when changing color of button png's and homescreen folder png's(top folder part comes out too large and out of shape).
I understand that this is due to some png files containing meta-data.My question is there anway to change the color of these png's without loosing their original shape?

Any themers want to create a green ICS theme?

I can create most PNGs but I don't know how to create .9 PNGs and I don't know how to create XML to change font colors. I am hoping some themers can help me in creating a green ICS ROM. I want to call it Mint ICS. Thanks.
Yeah, I would realy like to see a green theme. But just change the ICS blue into green (not too dark) with no other changes...let everything that is white, white and everything that's black, black. just change blue to green ;-)
Have a look at this gNex theme for example... that's to much themed!
Importand Question:
Did you mean a theme for Stock or AOSP?
whoa, that looks awesome, thanks. I will take this advice

Themeing mms apk

Hey im trying to theme the mms apk and i am having trouble finding the background image to change it from white to black. Can anyone help me out?
Which background are you looking for? Main screen is in conversation_list_screen.xml, each thread on that screen has it's own background at conversation_list_item.xml, and each text message thread has the backgrounds at message_list_item_send.xml and message_list_item_recv.xml. To change background to black, use
Code:
android:background="#000000"

[Q] To themers: name of an image

Trying to theme my status bar dropdown, and it's driving me insane.
I replaced the quicksettings and clear notifications icons, but when pressing them they get a green overlay.
Right now I'm trying to find out where this is controlled. Must be one of the .xmls or in smali, but so far I had no luck finding anything.
Anyone else know where to look?

I'm facing the same dillema. I bet it's in smali somewhere... if we're lucky it calls the RGB value from an XML we can change somewhere.

I checked most of the xmls in systemui and had no luck finding anything. If it calls an xml, then it most likely sits in com.htc.resources.apk which would suck :/

It's skinned blue in our Rom so its not in resources. I'm pretty sure it's in framework-res.apk values/colors.xml. holo_green_light & holo_green_dark
But to be sure I'll ask our lead dev sergio tomorrow.

since it will be changed if one applies a HTC Sense theme, and the Matte theme for instance has a blue on pressed color i did a quick apktool d Matte.apk
i found no graphics file inside but i found this inside /res/values/colors.xml
Code:
<color name="overlay_color">#ff0087b4</color>

Yeah it doesn't do what we want it to do though
I found it's easier to just put all your changes in a skin that's already got blue highlights, such as aluminum or matte. Now if I could only get rid of the black clock in the Matte theme I'd be golden!

Nice catch, too bad that the default skin is com.htc.resources.apk, which can't really be edited atm until apktool is updated.
Edit: with your hint I think it's "<color name="multiply_color">#ff00beff</color>" under values/colors.xml. for stock HTC theme, I think it's in SystemUI.apk, trying it out now.
Edit2: yup, that's the value that colors the icon on press . Editing SystemUI.apk is enough. Bear in mind that the color gets overlaid as a multiply layer (think Photoshop)
Yeah that makes sense with the multiply overlay
It was late yesterday when i posted my findings :-D
