How do you change status bar text color? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

I'd like to change my time in the upper right corner to a light blue color but I can't seem to find any way to do so. I have seen in screenshots that jellybean 4.2 has this built in but I am running 4.1.2. Any help would be appreciated.

.......
u need root ur phone...to install various status bar icon n mny else or u can try editing some files which is bit confusing.....
visit this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1530790
or check out Status Bar Icon app in play store.i don know wether it can change the colour or not or suitable with ur jb
let me know if i wrong....i still noob

Im already rooted running cleanrom 4.5. I tried using the rom toolkit but could only change the battery icon. I guess I gotta replace the systemui

Blue theme for clean rom 4.5 here.

[Q] does anyone know how to get i transparent title bar for cm7

I am asking the same question in the android themes forum. And I have yet to get an answer there as well. When and if if ans when I find out I will repost here.
Typed on my CyanoSavaged SuperEvo.
Are you guys looking for a whole theme? or just the bar
You can do that in uot kitchen

You can do that in uot kitchen..
if you could send me your:
- SystemUI.apk
- framework-res.apk
Ill edit just your status bar, and the rest of your staus bar such as notifications, and set a transparency on them. 0-100% you could choose. I liked %40. Its better this way because then you can keep your current theme or watever you have going for you + the transparent title bar. If your using stock Androidan. I have a test you could try. Just reboot in recovery wipe cache and davlik cache, and flash this. Boot up select theme in Theme Chooser. Should be Called Transparent. Restart phone and hope changes take effect.

-- Side Note- Ive had several themes and i dont recall my status bar being transparent but the notifcation bar is.. with that said, i might have wasted my time and yours, but hey its a quick test, and will take only 20 seconds

i tried that but i just came out white and the glitchy,but ill try the theme you posted in a bit
nvm.......
In the UOT Kitchen under that statusbar mod you want to select Dr Droid for the top bar..
That one will give you a semi transparent top statusbar..its the closest thing I have found to what you want.

[Q] Remove battery icon?

Is there anyway to remove the battery icon from the task bar on top???
i know jugg have the rom control where you can hide it. but since im switching over to a differnt rom i need to know if theres a .zip file that could do that.
im used to using miui battery bar. but i dun need 2 battery icons...
Thanks,
There's a paid app in the market called ROM Toolbox that can change your battery icon. It works with every ROM I've tried so far.
If you want to really customize it and don't mind having something else running on your phone all day you can try Super Statusbar as well, it comes with a built in MIUI bar.
Both come as free versions so you can test them out first.

okay, thanks man
Some of the icon changer won't work I've noticed you can only change the symbol if it has the symbol in ROM toolbox

I don't know what you mean? How would you have 2 battery icons? You can use uot kitchen and make your own battery
The MIUI battery bar runs horizontally across the top of your screen above your statusbar, so to have a second icon IN the status bar would be redundant in the OP's eyes. :beer:

Yea but the OP would have to modify some smali code which isnt very easy.

This worked for me. If you can decompile/compile smali, it's easy to edit.

NinjaMorph Help

Hi everyone. I would just like some help on using NinjaMorph. I wanted to mess around with the status bar icons and change the colors of icons but it didnt work. I started a new project, and went to "SystemUI.apk/Res/Drawable-hdpi" and i changed the color of the "4G" icon to purple just to see what would happen. I saved it and everything but it didnt change colors. I tried it with a few other status bar icons to no avail. I also tried rebooting. Also, im running the ICS 4.0.3 leak. If anyone could help me it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Edit: Does anyone know how to change the signal icon to have 6 bars instead of 5 on the ICS leak? And does anyone know how to completely get rid of the clock from the status bar? Annnnddd does anyone know how to add the bar at the bottom of the screen that allows you to multitask, go back, and go home? Cause i see the icons in "SystemUI.apk/Res/Drawable-hdpi" but i want to actually have a working bottom bar there. Thanks to anyone who helps my little crisis here. Lol

[Q] Don't know why this is happening?

I am running 4.2.2 stock and rooted on galaxy s4 T Mobile. The only things I did to customize my phone is using busybox and Xposed with Xblast that allowed me to change the status bar color on the icons, battery, wifi, network indication, and clock. That's really the only customization I did to the phone using Xposed. I also have Widgetlocker app and just some nothing out of the ordinary apps on my phone. If you look at my screenshots you will see a black box with white words in it. That's normal of course but then you will see in another screenshot that there is a blackbox but with black words that you can't see. I don't know why this has happen the blackout words and it seems like it's only on certain apps that is why I am able to show different screenshots. Does anyone know what I am saying trying my best to explain this. I don't want to reset my phone I did it once already when this happened but now it came back. I also tried fixing permissions through busybox and that didn't help. If anyone has anything that can help I would really appreciate it!
Thanks,
mr wizard

The ROM you are using uses the same font/style source for both toast notifications and whatever else you were actually trying to change the formatting of.
You can easily fix it by disabling Xposed, or just the Xposed module that it causing the issue. But you probably can't both fix it and keep that Xposed module.

Hey thanks for the reply. I disable the Xblast module and it work so far. The black box is now replaced with a white box with black words again. But I don't remember ever having a problem using the Xblast on my S3 like I am using it on my S4 now. Also since I disable it is there another way to change my icon colors in the status bar and maybe be able to hide the battery and or clock up there as well? Do you know too how to change the T Mobile name in the notification pulldown to label it something else that is what I was using the Xblast mainly for changing the status bar and label.
I have attached 3 new photos showing the notification pulldown with the word Stormchaser and the one showing the original status bar, and one showing the customized status bar that I would like to have, is there other ways of doing this without using Xblast?
Try wanam xposed? You can do all that you want with it

Sorry for the inconvenience... just go to visual tweaks and toast notification then choose toast style as remove and uncheck the toast color and toast bg color and do a soft reboot...it will solve ur problem
