i'm a newbie at this. when you say to change it from inside the XML file, do you mean to change the color using MS paint, for example? can you explain how to do this?

If you're a newbe, I suggest hitting up Google and learning about the basics in android decompiling apks and XML format.

but dont they simply have a theme for that calendar? you know which one i'm talking about? its a dark/black theme that came in the galaxy S2.. i'm 99% sure theres a theme for it here that you can just simply install.
To make it as simple as possible look up this thread named JusTunBeans inverted apps. Has all what you need on there and comes as an aroma setup to.

As stated above, you will need to learn some things in order to get this. But give Android Pro Widgets a try. There's a ton of cool calendar widget themes for the paid version.

Edit: I'm actually somewhat awake now, so hows about I actually give a relevant suggestion: Agenda Widget by Sam Henwood
I've never played with a S2, but Gmail Widgets by KATZOFT has some nice dark themes. I really like it.

Would take some nifty XML edits to redirect the background to a png in drawable. Could be done though And glad you like the one I posted. And moved to Q&A

From what I seen that background is controlled by xml. Would take some work getting it to display an image

So could one of you write a tutorial on exactly what needs to be done to the xml files?

Just extract the contacts.apk from Nitroz or Sonnys theme and replace yours with it...
To save you doing that, here it is
Nitroz,
I copied the apk and overwrote the existing and its not working. I have an android icon that i think is the contacts app but when i click it it says its not installed. any suggestions or can you tell me where i messed up? thanks!

Worked great on AOKP latest n greatest. Thanks Nitroz!

When I downloaded that file here, it shows up as a green Android picture. It should show the blue icon for Contacts/People ?
I used root explorer and go back to launcher and its empty. Can't find the people icon in app drawer anymore.

Did you restart your phone and then try reinstall the apk?
Just tried again, totally screwed up phone. Now my launcher shows two little green Android robot icons. I press them says no application.

The icon is the people app but grey scale..

Yep, did all of that. Used root explorer, move .apk to system/app and replace and set the permission stuff, etc...did not work.
But I have done that same thing a million times for other files with zero issues, like Mms...

Worked for me but couldn't get the andy metamorph to work with contacts so I went back
Its a shame someone cannot refine any of the inverted contact apps. They look good until you want to edit or create a new contact. The headers are white on white font and entry fields have black on black cursors.
and if you hit the photo or place holder in MMS the contact info comes up bright with odd font background colors.
Inverted MMS & Contact apps are beautiful things but they still have some clean up to be done.
I hope someone with the skills is listening.

I have been searching this long time and as nobody seem interested, try to do it by myself, but my knowledge is very limited and hasn't been able to make transparent the scroolable background....
There is, anyway, a black version out here, so it shouldn't be that dificult to change it to transparent.
In case someone with a little experience want to try, I attach cwm zips for both versions regular (white) and inverted (black)

I have already read better instructions here at XDA and also follow it without problems, being able to make transparent top and bottom ofthe widget (9.png files), but I'm nearly new in Android and unable to find the way to make transparent the scrollable background (where the messages list reside) and also to change text of messages to white.
I suppose that colours for that are defined in xlm files and search for it inside the apk folders, but none of the changes I made works.
Maybe the fellow who make the inverted version could send some light for us...

So you already tried to change the xml strings but it still don't work? How about with the inverted one that you made? Was it working when you change the xml?

Sorry, but I haven't made the Inverted version. I get it in the Gmail 4.2 leak thread where it was posted:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32764939&postcount=41
And credits goes there to travp624, but I haven't find any post by this guy regarding the mod.
Maybe latter will try to find his profile and PM him for advice...

Yea me too please! I would love to have a transparent Gmal app (or at least the widget)!
Currently using the 4.2 inverted version on my CM10 modded Marvelc.
I´m trying to modify the stock accuweather widget to make it look like the Galaxy s4 one. I´m editing all the pngs needed but I have no idea on how to move the date, hour, etc to the correct place. If someone can help me it would be much appreciated.
The image shows how it looks like.
I want that s4 weather widget. Looks cool

Thx for the info. I have tryed editing the layout values but I don´t know what exacly I have to change so I´m trying everything LOL. Another thing is that I don´t know if I have to extract the apk file placed on preload or the one placed system... With ICS I have it clear but whit JB I´m not sure.
I have achieve some good results. You can see them in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2197011
Can someone help me or point me in the right direction for editing a theme? I want the Cobalt theme to have transparent status bar, transparent system backgrounds(dialer, settings...etc) just like the HoloGlass Beta but with all the nice stuff from Cobalt(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dustinb.theme.cobalt) (HoloGlass https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mix3d.theme.hologlass.beta)
I'm still trying to figure this out, I've decompiled both themes, copied like 50 images from cobalt(signal, wifi...etc) to hologlass overwriting the originals, edited preview and changed the default wallpaper then recompiled, signed it, installed but the only thing that I can tell is different is the default wallpaper, everything else is the same, the preview didn't even work, just shows a red X....I don't understand.
If it's a system app you don't want to sign it. You need to preserve the original signatures if I remember correctly. Utilities like apk multi tool can do this for you when it's time to recompile. Could that be the problem?

I didn't know a theme was a system app?
Well I was wrong, It mostly worked, most things changed except WiFi and signal bars(Which was one of the main features I wanted from cobalt) Maybe it would be easier just to take the transparent stuff from holo glass and put it into cobalt? Idk but I still need help with this...

It depends on what you're theming. I'm just guessing but the status bar is probably in the SystemUI.apk or SecLauncher2.apk. so to theme it would require modding the correct system app.
