I'm themeing the clock on my lock screen. I can't figure out how to change the font though. I know it's one of the xml's in the framework. Any advice would be great. Thanks.

You can use the application mClock. it's free and you can change the font of your clock easily.
You can find XML generator for mClock on google.
Specify the name of your font.
After paste your font file in /sdcard/Fonts/
If it doesn't exist you can create it.
Enjoy !

If you only want to go from white to black , you can choose it on settings/homescreen/color scheme. If you want to make your own colors you got to edit your phone's .xml file.
Tnx for reply!
I did modify xml file to change font to black, but can't move file into settings
I modified the xml file for the Live theme to change the font color from white to black and copied the file back to my phone using Active Sync. The file is there - I can open it and look at it and see the change, but I cannot move it to the Settings area where the actual theme, colors, etc. are selected. How do I do that or is there another way to apply the file to the homescreen?
Thx in advance!!

The edited .xml files have to be placed in My Device/Application Data/Home for you to be able to choose it from settings/homescreen/color scheme.

Okay, I've just ported over a few themes to the ultimate droid 2.1.0 and in the transition, my menus font is white on a white backgroud. I cannot see the font unless I use the trackball and highlight it. Would anybody be willing to show me what files to change that or even better help me by changing them for me? I am not a themer by any means and am just looking for a little help thanks.

Nobody knows how to do this? I am going crazy trying to figure this out. Thanks
It's in the colors.xml I think .
It may be in values folder.
Once you decompile the
framework.apk
Not at a computer or I could give you a better idea.

Ok, I've extracted the framework-res file to my PC... I located the colors folder and now i'm in need of help on how to edit the file to make the font black instead of white... What program do i use to edit the file, and how do i repack the framework-res to insert back to the phone? Any help

I would download 7zip and just swap out color xmls that you know are stock. Or just post a download link and I will fix it for you

Cheers, exactly what I was looking for while themeing my SGS
Hi, it's just that i want to change the font colour of my rom (it's still is in beta mode and i haven't post it, but it'll soon come). My rom is based on the framework of the nexus s and its systemui.apk so everything is the same, but when im at any place and i press the button left to the home button, and it displays the extra options, the extra options are in the same colour as the font (black) and i can't see it. I would just copy the xml files on the nexus s framework (i suppose it's located there), but its far better if i learn how to change it myself. I'm a bit noob at rom cooking, and i know the basics, how to edit the framework, edditing apk's appearance, cooking it, making it into a flasheable zip, but the thing i don't know is how to this.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks
If I'correct then in twframework in /res/values should be xml file color.xml and in there should be color hex code with most colors used in theme or in /res/drawable is quite few xml files for some menus. You edit xml with some better editor. Hope this can jelp a little rrst will theme modders add

Not sure if this belongs in the Dev section or here.
Anyway, attached is a screenshot of my homescreen. I am wondering how to edit the Google+ widget to give it a transparent background instead of the dark bg.
I know how to edit photos and apply a transparent bg, etc., I am just not sure how to edit the widget itself. Is it a matter of getting the .apk and extracting an image to edit? I used to edit icons for my iOS devices, so I assume this might be the same with .apk files ...
Any tips would be helpful!
Thanks!
I'd like to know too. I tried to edit the widget background for the honeycomb music app to be semi-transparent by taking the trans widget background from sense music widget.
Honeycomb music apk had a file called appwidget_bg.9.png so i renamed the one from sense to that name using 7zip, but new apk wouldnt install for me.
Not sure if any of this helps you. But I'd like to know too.
In the apk, there should be a folder called res or resources, i forget. Pretty sure relevant file is in there if I remember correctly. Good luck.

I've modded the app.
instructions:
- install the app from the market (you already have it installed so you may be able to skip this step)
- remove the widget if its on one of the screens
- use root exprlorer to copy the file I posted to the /data/app folder
- set the permissions (rw-r--r--)
- readd the widget
that worked for me.
Download the attachment
Thanks but I get force close when I try.

I thought I would try the above mod again and it still force closes. Does anyone else know how to get the google+ transparent widget? Martijua's mod is exactly what I am looking for, but for some reason it doesn't work. :-(
Thanks!
Im using the Elegant Blue Them on CNA. However, I want to change the softkeys. My understanding is that the ThemeChooser pulls the assets from the themes APK and not from system. How can I keep the theme, but put different softkeys? I'm trying to use the text softkeys, as it is right now, only the search one changes. I assume this is because the Elegant Blue theme doesn't account for a search key in its assets. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
