Modified framework-res.apk (button+thin progress bar)for Hybrid2/XXLM6/XXLM8

Hi all,
I know some of us are not comfortable with the black font color on the buttons in Rio's Hybrid2 ROM and also for XXLM6/8 ROM.
With the guidance of doles, I managed to modified the framework-res.apk making the font color white and also adding ICS sense to the progress bar.
This mod is similar to the mod theme provided by doles but mine is mainly for Hybrid2.
Simply download the framework-res.apk and put it into ur sdcard. Replace the one under /system/framework by using root explorer. Then Reboot. DONE~
I have added a flashable zip Hybrid2_ICS_button+progressbar+extended_menu.zip for convenience. It is together with extended menu.
Remember to do a nandroid backup just in case.

Thx

Yes, of course. This framework-res.apk is based on DXLC1.
U need to pull and decompile ur framework-res.apk by using apktool.
To change the font color on buttons
Go to res\values\ and open styles.xml by using notepad then search for
style name="Widget.Button"
change <item name="android:textColor"> to white
Code:
<item name="android:textColor">#ffffffff</item>
To change the progress bar
u can follow this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1374394

the problem was that after the overwriting, phone stuck on confirm panel, pulling out the battery and powering on, the phone remains stuck on blank screen after the boot animation, so i didn't know how to put the old file, so i wipe all and reflash the rom

Think your missing the signature of the apk, best to copy the classes.dex, reaources.arsc and the res folder over from the compiled apk to the original SystemUI.apk that you have

Do it again but before starting you need to install framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk Plz write your future issues to the kitchen thread so that others will benefit from the answers.

i tried alliance mod looks great but the toggles are not my style and you have to use on of the toggles so that your preferences would reflect. also it interferes with the multiwindow of the biftor rom that i'm using.
i also tried the alliancerom but same problem with toggles. the settings look also changed. i'm aiming for a more stock like look.
but thanks for the recommendation, at first i really liked the customization but it just didn't suit my taste.

Use Notepad++ (google and download it, it's free) if you have windows on your PC.

recompiling
hi dr30ma
i'm really not sure if i've done everything correctly.
in decompiling i keep on getting an error occured
but i checked projects folder, the systemui directory is there
so i looked for the tw_status_bar.xml file and made the changes u listed by just using notepad. i'm not really sure if this is correct but i tried it anyway.
now when i go back to script in apktool, i press 11 to recompile apk. but there is again an error.
i tried to look for the keep directory but it does not appear. so i think i wasn't successful.
any help would be appreciated. tia!

did you mount system before you flashed the zip?
in cwm goto mounts and storage and mount system (if system is mounted it will display "unmount system")
remember if you are using a cm kernel like biels kernel you have to unmount system and remount it so its best to just unmount it and remount anyway just to make sure
