[Q] Can you change the notification Bar Clock Colour? - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a way to easily change the notification bar clock colour?
I have used the UOT kitchen but this isn't one of the features that you can change.
Cheers Rob

If your phone is rooted and your rom is compatible you can use RCTeam Tweaks!

pretty sure it's one of the features you can change...made mine blue
Status bar --> check 'use this mod'
scroll down a bit, then check 'topbar text' --> change your colour
this question would have been more appropriate in the actual UOT thread, but never mind...

Sorry but it was never meant as just a UOT problem but more of a "is there ANY way of doing it?"
By the way I already tried this and everything else turned a different colour except the clock which stayed white.
I also used the Cyanogenmod theme picker which had the same result.

so when using the kitchen, in the preview pane, does it show your new clock colour as well as all your other customisations? but after flashing only the clock colour does not apply?
hmm then that is strange
i've not use the cyanogen theme picker, but have used the kitchen to change the clock colour for cyanogen on an htc wildfire.
perhaps try uploading your framework.res and systemUI files manually rather than using the kitchen list.
or if you're already doing that and if it still doesnt work, cos it's definitely possible using UOT, ask in that thread providing your UOT file number, the dev is usually very helpful.

Which files needed for app-bar

Hi.
I'm going to mod my stock ROM to be as i want, but i need to know which image files i need to edit for making a custom Application-Bar, you know the one to pull up and down on homescreen.
Anyone knows?
status_bar_close_on.9.png is the bar that is dragged down and the permanent one at the top is statusbar_background.png
Already got that one modded with the hero status bar.
Its the one at the bottom with the apps i want to change. Got any idea what these files are called?

I've only done this with cyanogen so not sure whether this is same for all but here goes:
Launcher.apk\res\drawable-port\ic_tray_collape.png
Launcher.apk\res\drawable-port\ic_tray_expand.png
Launcher.apk\res\drawable-port\tray_handle_pressed.png
Launcher.apk\res\drawable-port\tray_handle_selected.png
and the background for the Launcher menu:
Launcher.apk\res\drawable\pattern_carbon_fiber_dark.png
if we change the bar to darker colour, surely it will be impossible to read the clock. Could someone confirm?
Thanks

With a little more modding you can change the text color.
Changing the clock colour is a pain as it is in services.jar rather than the framework-res.apk, if anyone has steps to edit the services.jar do let me know
check out the dream section- there is a thread there about how to do it. Not easy.

Does anyone make a black status bar theme that includes a black tray handle as well?
black title/status bar help...
ok, I am putting together a Themed ROM (WGY26wcfs). Got all the png's and fonts I want/need. Thing is, the text is black on the title bar/status bar at the top, kinda hard to see it with a black background...
So, where do I go to change the color of the font used for this location?
That would be a big help.
Thanks!
well...
Please, some help...where can I set the color of the font for the title bar at the top? The font is black..so is the title bar...kinda hard to see...

Search in the Android Themes section for colorchange.jar. This simple app will do what you need (you need to edit .dex files in the framework). PM if still have trouble.

Either check you what I said above, or watch for my new Blue_Haze ROM which will be a modded version of OE with a black bar.

Coloured Notifications

i've just flashed the new Super E v1.0.1 rom on my G1, but i miss the coloured notifications does anyone know of a metamorph that i can apply to get coloured notifications. i searched and only found a metamorph for a donut based rom
thank you for any help
you can search for black_bar.zip. can flash via metamorph. then the colours can be edited in spare parts.

He wants icons, not the bar
I applied the metamorph black bar mod, but the black notification icons didn't look right, thank you both for your help

UOT Kitchen

Hello people. I'm seeing alot of battery mod threads but if you want a little more customisation head over to the UOT kitchen and bake your own framework/system ui.
I did it yesterday and it worked perfectly. You just need clockwork recovery and your away.

Be sure to head over to this thread and hit thanks. Mendozinas put in alot of work :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=990829
I'm just putting this out there for people new to android or that don't know about the kitchen.
Its a great tool!
Enjoy!
Great heads up, i see ti now works with stock ROM's as well, wish they would add the CRT effect though.
this is a good website but unfortunately all that it changes for me is the battery icon and nothing else on status bar or notification area, i am confused whats up with it, its not just this its every theme i try to install does the same
well, the main prob with kitchen and our phones (S series and S2 too) is Touchwizz.
modifications via kitchen only affect framework-res.apk ;touchwizz needs modifications on twframework too.
knowing this, you can still use kitchen for :
-battery icons.
-notification icons
-glowing (at least for sliders bars and a part of the pop-up windows IF they aren't managed by twframework ).
haven't tried mods on status bars yet with my S2 but they were ok with my old galaxy S so it's probably the same.
P.S :
as always with themes, don't forget to wipe cache and dalvik cache after applying it viaCWM
hope it helps
Can someone provide me framework-res.apk and systemui.apk from stock KE7? Thanks.
How to submit it? I selected what I needed, uploaded framework-res.apk and systemui.apk but when I click Submit button nothing happens!
OK, I figured it out. But I can't select 'Transparent Status Bar' only, I don't want any modifications on status bar but just to make it Transparent! Maybe it's not allowed!

Can you choose status bar then not put a tick in the box for icons?
That should work.

Well the Transparent Bar is not working for me. Just for me I just selected only Transparent Bar and nothing else, but it's the same damn black status bar in the end
Try with ADW launcher for the transparent statusbar and disable wallpaper hack
Hey all,
Just having an issue with UOT kitchen ever since I flashed to Lite'ning ROM 1.4 on KF1. Getting SHTF errors every time I try to cook files now, anyone else having this issue?
I created my first theme and it worked, however i lost the screen capture feature, does anyone know why?
Hi mendozinas,
Because i have changed my phone to GS S2(i9100) and would you please tell me this version UOT Kitchen whether support GS S2(i9100) + SpeedMod SGS2 [K1-T31 CWM4 CIFS ROOT] ?
Thanks!
I've cooked my battery icon for xxkg1 2.3.3 but i'm asking if is it possible to use the "SCB with %" (Version C, New charger for example) and hybrid charge animation.
Thanks!

Ain't you supposed to upload the twframework.apk along with the framework-res and systemui? I did and everything changed, battery, signal, wifi, alarm, menus, pop ups, font, everything I told it to its changed everytime.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
esk02k: you going to submit your awesome battery mod to the UOTK?

Hi all, hope your well.
Thank you directing us to the kithen. I have tried to use but seem to have an issue. When I select a mod, and click generate preview, it doesnt do it. It tries to generate it but then just times out. Anyone else had/having the same issue? Am I missing something or could it just be my internet?
Everything else works fine on my internet.
Thanks in advance guys!!
EDIT: Sorted. It just started to work.

[Q] Venom ROM statusbar horizontal quicklaunch

So I am having this weird problem which I hope any one can help me out.
In Viper ROM 3.6 and below, horizontal quick launch was small icons with no text which used to change color (silver and gray) based on activate or inactive state.
With the new update of 3.7.1 and 3.7.2, I am faced with big icons with text and blue line below to indicate state.
Is there anyway to get the original icons back. I have tried numerous themes from Venom HUB but none of them seem to work.
Thanks for the help.
Any help
Yes itnis possible but you have to decompile the systemUI.apk and replace the icons with the old ones.......

Shouldnt the old icons be in the Venom HUB somewhere.
Although I can learn how to decompile, I do not believe I will be able to find the icons.
I know where to look. Could also be framework-res.apk.....can't remember my bare head. Will check later
