Notification tray customization (ESP. colour) - Nexus 7 Themes and Apps

Hi! I'd like to change the colour of my notification tray as it looks a bit dull as it is. Can this be done? My device isn't rooted. THANKS!

Until no custom rom you can do nothing.
You can try status bar + app but this is either workaround.

You can change it but it requires a bit of hacking with the ui.

Custom roms have this. I'm using EOS and you can make it any color in the interface system options.

There is probably an image in SystemUI.apk in res/drawable-x-xdpi that is called notification_panel_bg.9.png you can change that then zipalign the apk

Doesn't this still require root access to edit that file? Modifying your OS is part of the benefit of rooting. I don't think there is any other way around it.

[Q] is there anyway to change lockscreen?

I see on pac man rom the weather theme is actually a picture and the weather on liquidsmooth and cm10 is a drawing...it's there anyway to change that since they are both asop?I don't want a third party lockscreen..

You could get a apk manager and extract both framework-res.apk's (or systemui, I forget) and swap the two weather images. Then zip them up again. If you need more info just post again.

I've actually changed framework by pushing files into the apk from winrar...like top bar icons...then overwriting the file on my phone with root explorer and reboot...would that work with this? And what files do I need to change....?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
I just opened the pac framework and there are 2 weather files....weather_00-47.png
And weather_aokp_00-47.png
The 1st one looks like the drawing and the 2nd one looks like the one I want...
So I should rename the 2nd ones to the names of the 1st ones and then push them into the framework and then send the file to my phone right?

THIS IS FOR LIQUIDSMOOTH RC9 ONLY

I think I'll download some of the other roms and make it for that...I'm using the framework from rc9 liquidsmooth so it might go into a bootloop on another rom...

I would search for it in system/framework/systemUI/res/drawables/xhdpi (or hdpi for other screens)

Oh, of course. This is what I meant to say. I mixed it up with the framework resources
AW: [Q] Google Now Navring Shortcut
Good idea but it is not the right one :/
I also searched for it in /system/framework/framework-res.apk/... and /system/app/velvet/...
I often saw the image but when I flashed it nothing changed there :/

They are images in framework-res. What you'll want to do is pull the images from framework-res/res/drawable_xhdpi. They're called keyguard_ lockscreen_time. Recolor the images then use something like xplore file explorer from play store to put the images back in framework-res

Any way to make notification bar white?

Quick question: is there any modification or ROM that allows you to change the Holo theme from black to white? I'm just getting tired of the black. Or is that an impossible request?

Try any launcher and set the NAV bar color to white. Profit.. :good:
Even in crDroid there is a feature to do this. Which rom you are using? check in settings for the same..
Press thanks If I helped you.

If u are rooted, u can decompile SystemUI.apk, change some xml here and there and replace with proper permissions in system/app.
Voilá!

for the white notification bar, i have been using xposed module for that and the module i use is gravitybox, a really great module, you can customize a lot of stuff from there.
Or just flash ParanoidAndroid rom. Its awesome with colour changes.

Just stick with what we have. This phone is sadly dying.
Grakernel is awesome. The dev has put a lot of work in it and it provides awesome multibooting. Use trickster for speed and color adjustments and youre done.
